Hi: I’m new to NetworkManager and have an interest in
coding up a new feature into it. I think it would be great to have the ability
to partition out adhoc networks from infrastructure networks in the available
wireless network list. That way, if it happens to be the case that there is a
lurking adhoc network called say “foo” and an infrastructure
network called “foo”, the user can differentiate between the two
and choose which one they want to associate with. Additionally, with that kind of segmentation, it would be
nice to ONLY see adhoc networks or infrastructure networks in the list (as a configurable
option). For a managed network environment, users may only be interested in
seeing one kind of network at a given time. So, any advice on how I can quickly ramp up into the design
aspects of NetworkManager? Any advice on where I would likely begin to
experiment with changes? Thanks! Doug |
