Differences Between CcspWifiAgent and OneWiFi Applysettings:

CcspWifiAgent :

Ccsp
dmcli eRT setv Device.WiFi.Radio.2.X_CISCO_COM_ApplySetting bool true
dmcli eRT setv Device.WiFi.Radio.1.X_CISCO_COM_ApplySetting bool true 

OneWiFi:

OneWiFi
#Any dmcli commands specific to SSID and AccessPoint execute the Below Access Point Related apply settings
dmcli eRT setv Device.WiFi.ApplyAccessPointSettings bool true

#Any dmcli executions specific to Radio level use the below Radio apply settings command
dmcli eRT setv Device.WiFi.ApplyRadioSettings bool true

Debugging Tips :

Below are the list of logs present in /rdklogs/logs for Debugging OneWiFi Issues.

For Additional in-depth Debugging one should enable below commands ,

  • touch /nvram/wifiMgrDbg
  • touch /nvram/wifiDbDbg
  • touch /nvram/wifiWebConfigDbg
  • touch /nvram/wifiHalDbg
  • touch /nvram/wifiCtrlDbg
  • touch /nvram/wifiMonDbg
  • touch /nvram/wifiDMCLI
  • touch /nvram/wifiLib
  • touch /nvram/wifiLibhostapDbg

check for the respective logs in /tmp,

  • tail -f wifiCtrl &
  • tail -f wifiHal &
  • tail -f wifiMgr &
  • tail -f wifiDMCLI &
  • tail -f wifiDb &

  • tail -f wifiWebConfig &
  • tail -f wifilibhostap &
