description:
- 802.11 frequency band of the network.

with the same network in the 2.4GHz band even if the network's settings are compatible.

cloned-mac-address:
description:
- This D-Bus field is deprecated in favor of O(wifi.assigned-mac-address) which is more flexible and allows specifying special variants
like V(random).
- For libnm and nmcli, this field is called C(cloned-mac-address).
type: str
generate-mac-address-mask:
description:
- With O(wifi.cloned-mac-address) setting V(random) or V(stable), by default all bits of the MAC address are scrambled and a locally-administered,
unicast MAC address is created. This property allows to specify that certain bits are fixed.
- Note that the least significant bit of the first MAC address will always be unset to create a unicast MAC address.
- If the property is V(null), it is eligible to be overwritten by a default connection setting.
- If the value is still V(null) or an empty string, the default is to create a locally-administered, unicast MAC address.
- If the value contains one MAC address, this address is used as mask. The set bits of the mask are to be filled with the current MAC
address of the device, while the unset bits are subject to randomization.
- Setting V(FE:FF:FF:00:00:00) means to preserve the OUI of the current MAC address and only randomize the lower 3 bytes using the V(random)
or V(stable) algorithm.
- If the value contains one additional MAC address after the mask, this address is used instead of the current MAC address to fill the
bits that shall not be randomized.
- For example, a value of V(FE:FF:FF:00:00:00 68:F7:28:00:00:00) will set the OUI of the MAC address to 68:F7:28, while the lower bits
are randomized.
- A value of V(02:00:00:00:00:00 00:00:00:00:00:00) will create a fully scrambled globally-administered, burned-in MAC address.
- If the value contains more than one additional MAC addresses, one of them is chosen randomly. For example, V(02:00:00:00:00:00 00:00:00:00:00:00
02:00:00:00:00:00) will create a fully scrambled MAC address, randomly locally or globally administered.
type: str
hidden:
description:
- If V(true), indicates that the network is a non-broadcasting network that hides its SSID. This works both in infrastructure and AP
mode.
- In infrastructure mode, various workarounds are used for a more reliable discovery of hidden networks, such as probe-scanning the
SSID. However, these workarounds expose inherent insecurities with hidden SSID networks, and thus hidden SSID networks should be used
with caution.
- In AP mode, the created network does not broadcast its SSID.
- Note that marking the network as hidden may be a privacy issue for you (in infrastructure mode) or client stations (in AP mode), as
the explicit probe-scans are distinctly recognizable on the air.
