Hi,
I also find it quite un-nice to be able to run ifup ath0 to enable
wpa_supplicant, but not ifdown ath0 to stop it.
Why exactly is is that you can’t provide this functionality?
Is it because ifupdown insists that it needs some values with manual
method to consider the interface as up? What happens if you use dummy
values there? Or maybe patch ifupdown to have a "none" method that just
runs the hook scripts and doesn’t do anything else?
Greetings,
Joachim
