2013-10-23Allow limiting the frequencies to scan (FS#37032)Jouke Witteveen1-0/+4
This is especially useful to enforce connecting in the 5 GHz band.
2013-10-23Increase default DHCP timeoutJouke Witteveen1-1/+1
New timeout is 30 seconds, which equals the current dhcpcd default.
2013-07-25Make netctl-auto more hook friendlyJouke Witteveen1-7/+7
The hooks (including any interface hook) are loaded each time a wpa event occurs. This means the auto.action script can be extended in the hooks. For this purpose, several exported variables (mainly $ACTION) can be checked for their value. The name of the active profile is not exported, but still available (just as in ordinary netctl usage) through the $Profile variable. Profiles ending in .action are disallowed (reserved for possible future use). Both ifplugd and wpa_actiond have a notion of 'action script'.
2013-07-24Use iproute2 for bridging (FS#36165)Jouke Witteveen1-6/+4
This sheds the dependency on the old bridge-utils (brctl).
2013-07-16Don't release DHCP leases by default (FS#35760)Jouke Witteveen1-0/+4
Regardless of the DHCP client, leases are not released by default. This introduces a new configuration parameter: DHCPReleaseOnStop, which can be used to change the default behavior.
2013-06-16Documentation updatesJouke Witteveen1-6/+15
2013-05-21Expose the 'maxfail' option for ppp connectionsJouke Witteveen1-6/+11

Removed unnecessary options from example connection.
2013-04-15Fix naming of IEEE 802 working groupsJouke Witteveen1-3/+3
Use 'wpa' to refer to the 802.11i and 802.1x client side software (wpa_supplicant) in general.
2013-04-13Allow IP6 address to be set in case IP6=statelessJouke Witteveen1-2/+2
Router advertisements can tell clients to not generate a public address automatically (AdvAutonomous off). Reported by: Jonne Haß
2013-04-13ExecDownPre is executed BEFORE the con is brought downDaniel Oertwig1-1/+1
ExecDownPre is executed before the connection is brought down, not after, as the man suggests. See netctl/src/lib/network line 75
2013-04-10Fix DHCPOptionsJouke Witteveen1-1/+1
Split them into different variables for different clients. Also, IP6 gets its own, so that it can have options different from the IP4 invocation.
2013-03-29Documentation updateJouke Witteveen1-33/+38
Rebuild all the manpages because version information may have changed. Add a few words on options that are ignored in some cases.
2013-03-18Documentation updatesJouke Witteveen1-0/+4
2013-02-15Update documentationJouke Witteveen1-1/+3
DAD is still causing problems/confusion. This should help a bit.
2013-02-05Move the location for profilesJouke Witteveen1-9/+9
Old location: /etc/network.d New location: /etc/netctl This should ease migration from netcfg and is a better path anyway.
2013-02-01Remove the default IPv4 netmaskJouke Witteveen1-4/+3
A default netmask makes no sense (except possibly /32). Spotted by: Thomas Bächler <thomas@archlinux.org>
2012-12-30Forgotten lines on automatic connection scriptsJouke Witteveen1-0/+4
- The services now bind to their interfaces correctly. - Documentation of ExcludeAuto is added.
2012-12-30Drop the Scan parameterJouke Witteveen1-5/+0
It was quite useless.
