Banana Pi MLO config

Configuration for Banana Pi is slightly different from the ones we have for XB platform devices.

  • we do not set Link_IDs. These are set by hostapd/rdk-wifi-hal and should be left untouched.
  • legacy: there is still partial dependency left on InterfaceMap.json which will be removed in the future. Currently, the VAPs belonging to MLD group have to have common MLD name defined in the JSON.
  • legacy: wireless MLD device has to be precreated prior to setup of the MLD

Below is how we setup MLO for VAPs as well as listings showing the legacy fields mentioned. Legacy fields will be made obsolete with further development and alignment toward unified handling.

#legacy nvram/IntefaceMap.json entry
 { 
"InterfaceName": "wifi2",
"MldName": "mld0",
"Bridge": "brlan0",
"vlanId": 0,
"vapIndex": 16, 
"vapName": "private_ssid_6g"
}
