NAME
       ifcfg-wireless - wireless LAN network interface configuration

SYNOPSIS
       /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-wlan-*
       /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-type-wlan

GENERAL
       Wireless	 networks  need some additional configuration data compared to
       ethernet ones. Therefore additional  variables  for  ifcfg  files  were
       introduced.   All  wireless LAN specific variables are described in the
       ifcfg template file /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg.template. It is possi‐
       ble  to	configure more than one wireless network accepted for associa‐
       tion. To achieve this add suffix _1 to all wireless variables  for  the
       second	network,   _2	for  the  this,	 and  so  on.  Example:	 WIRE‐
       LESS_ESSID_1="second_net" You can have up to ten wireless networks con‐
       figured.	 Some  wireless variables are not applicable to a single wire‐
       less network but are global to the interface. The  description  of  the
       variable points this out.
