const GByteArray *
nm_access_point_get_ssid (NMAccessPoint *ap);

Gets the SSID of the access point.

nm_access_point_get_bssid ()

const char *
nm_access_point_get_bssid (NMAccessPoint *ap);

Gets the Basic Service Set ID (BSSID) of the Wi-Fi access point.

nm_access_point_get_frequency ()

guint32
nm_access_point_get_frequency (NMAccessPoint *ap);

Gets the frequency of the access point in MHz.

nm_access_point_get_mode ()

NM80211Mode
nm_access_point_get_mode (NMAccessPoint *ap);

Gets the mode of the access point.

nm_access_point_get_max_bitrate ()

guint32
nm_access_point_get_max_bitrate (NMAccessPoint *ap);

Gets the maximum bit rate of the access point in kbit/s.

nm_access_point_get_strength ()

guint8
nm_access_point_get_strength (NMAccessPoint *ap);

Gets the current signal strength of the access point as a percentage.

nm_access_point_get_last_seen ()

int
nm_access_point_get_last_seen (NMAccessPoint *ap);

Returns the timestamp (in CLOCK_BOOTTIME seconds) for the last time the access point was found in scan results. A value of -1 means the access point has not been found in a scan.

Since: 1.2

nm_access_point_filter_connections ()

GSList *
nm_access_point_filter_connections (NMAccessPoint *ap,
                                    const GSList *connections);

Filters a given list of connections for a given NMAccessPoint object and return connections which may be activated with the access point. Any returned connections will match the ap 's SSID and (if given) BSSID and other attributes like security settings, channel, etc.

To obtain the list of connections that are compatible with this access point, use nm_remote_settings_list_connections() and then filter the returned list for a given NMDevice using nm_device_filter_connections() and finally filter that list with this function.

nm_access_point_connection_valid ()

gboolean
nm_access_point_connection_valid (NMAccessPoint *ap,
                                  NMConnection *connection);

Validates a given connection against a given Wi-Fi access point to ensure that the connection may be activated with that AP. The connection must match the ap 's SSID, (if given) BSSID, and other attributes like security settings, channel, band, etc.

nm_access_point_get_hw_address ()

const char *
nm_access_point_get_hw_address (NMAccessPoint *ap);

Gets the hardware (MAC) address of the access point.
