The hostapd module allows you to easily manage hostapd with puppet.

Just include the hostapd class

class { '::hostapd':
  ssid => 'foo',
}

For a more customized configuration:

class { '::hostapd':
  ssid      => 'foo',
  interface => 'wlan0',
  bridge    => 'br0',
}

Declare an additional bssid:

hostapd::bssid { 'wlan0_0':
  ssid      => 'bar',
  bridge    => 'br0',
}

Classes:

• hostapd
• hostapd::config
• hostapd::install
