Driver Based Virtualization Options

Virtual access point(s) may be defined as logical abstraction(s) built on an underlying physical device. Once defined on a physical device each virtual access point is capable of operating as an independent entity from other virtual devices defined on the same physical device. The current Atheros cards on the orbit nodes come with a MadWifi driver that supports setting up of multiple virtual access points on a single physical device.

Experiments Done For Validation

Multiple Virtual Access Points, Single Physical Device

Experiments were setup to model a simple scenario as a starting point
