Unified (One)Wifi Wi-Fi is an 802.11 protocol stack designed for the configuration, statsstatistics, steering, and telemetry of Wi-Fi driver and basebandbasebands. It has been architected with insights from based on years of experience in addressing field and deployment issueschallenges. The implementation is mostly generic because of largely generic due to the use of Openopen-Source source modules (hostap) and Linux libraries (netlink, cfg80211), enabling the stack to work operate seamlessly on across multiple Wi-Fi chipsets . Because of the above, the stack can be easily portable and ensuring easy portability to new devices. The stack supports multiple various management protocols such as , including WebConfig, TR-181, WFA Data Elements, and TR-181 USP. It Additionally, it also supports wide range of Wi-Fi apps (motionapplications, such as motion detection, device typing, connection admission control, and EasyMesh etc.). OneWifi is rich in features. As depicted in Figure 7: OneWifi Features the list of features includes 802.11be, 6GHz Private & Public Service, EasyMesh, Connection Admission Control etc. ToDo features and roadmap details - will be shared by soumya munshi offers a comprehensive set of features, as illustrated in the diagram below.

OneWifi provides significant advantages for adopters, in addition to its extensive feature set . Reduction in Platform-Specific DefectsOneWifi is built primarily of OpenSourceprimarily built using open-source code that arehas been widely deployed in hugeat scale. Since suchThis code hadhas been thoroughly vetted for wide usages,various use cases, resulting in fewer new defects are less. Additionally, andany existing defectsissues are well published-documented, with fixes alreadyreadily available. Faster End-2to-End Feature DevelopmentThe OneWifi codecodebase is mostlylargely generic, andwith platform-specific differences areabstracted by a limited numberset of HAL functions. Because of genericThis allows for rapid feature development, as common business logic , development of features set can be fast. Code for new featureis shared across platforms. New features can be developed on a primaryone platform and quickly tested on other platformsothers.
