ESP-IDF AP roaming with specified MAC address
Posted: Fri Jan 17, 2025 6:57 pm
Currently our products do a WiFi scan before connecting to attempt to identify the best access point, then specify it by MAC address with wifi_config.sta.bssid & wifi_config.sta.bssid_set = true.
I'm looking at enabling 802.11kv, but I had a couple questions.
If a station specifies the access point BSSID to esp_wifi_set_config(), will the station still perform 802.11k neighbor report and use that?
If a station specified the access point BSSID to esp_wifi_set_config(), will the station still roam with 802.11kv?
I had built out scan-before-connect to try to start with the best access point in the mesh first, but will my attempt at that prevent roaming to the best one?
