This change adds the configuration options "bssid_whitelist" and
"bssid_blacklist" used to limit the AP selection of a network to a
specified (finite) set or discard certain APs.
This can be useful for environments where multiple networks operate
using the same SSID and roaming between those is not desired. It is also
useful to ignore a faulty or otherwise unwanted AP.
In many applications it is useful not just to enumerate a group of well
known access points, but to use a address/mask notation to match an
entire set of addresses (ca:ff:ee:00:00:00/ff:ff:ff:00:00:00).
This is especially useful if an OpenWrt device with two radios is used to
retransmit the same network (one in AP mode for other clients, one as STA for
the uplink); the following configuration prevents the device from associating
with itself, given that the own AP to be avoided is using the bssid
'C0:FF:EE:D0:0D:42':
config wifi-iface
option device 'radio2'
option network 'uplink'
option mode 'sta'
option ssid 'MyNetwork'
option encryption 'none'
list bssid_blacklist 'C0:FF:EE:D0:0D:42/00:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF'
