from a wireless network interface that is not displayed by
iwconfig. This is typically list of parameters.
PARAMETERS
freq Give the list of available frequencies in the
device and the number of defined channels. Please

ber of channels and only the frequencies available
in the present locale, so there is no one to one
mapping between frequencies displayed and channel
numbers.
ap Give the list of Access Points in range, and
optionally the quality of link to them.
rate/bit[rate]
List the bit-rates supported by the device.
keys/enc[ryption]
List the encryption key sizes supported and display
all the encryption keys availables in the device.
power List the various Power Management attributes and
modes of the device.
