+ IEEE 802.11 AP and IEEE 802.1X/WPA/WPA2/EAP Authenticator
+
+ Originally, hostapd was an optional user space component for
+ Host AP driver. It adds more features to the basic IEEE
+ 802.11 management included in the kernel driver: using
+ external RADIUS authentication server for MAC address based
+ access control, IEEE 802.1X Authenticator and dynamic WEP
+ keying, RADIUS accounting, WPA/WPA2 (IEEE 802.11i/RSN)
+ Authenticator and dynamic TKIP/CCMP keying.
+
+ The current version includes support for other drivers, an
+ integrated EAP authenticator (i.e., allow full
+ authentication without requiring an external RADIUS
+ authentication server), and RADIUS authentication server for
+ EAP authentication.
