The change in revision 1.38 (in 1997!) was wrong. If we don't want the kernel
...
to automatically bring up interfaces, then we should move that code into
ifconfig(8) and out of the kernel, not cycle the interface up and down. Fixes
PR 9400 -- ifconfig(8) was not working as documented.

clean up the ssid explanation a bit (including mentioning that if you

documenting.)

XXX Really, someone should go through and change around all the

Add an option (-z) like -v except that it clears the input/output
...
stats after printing them.
(Basically this just calls SIOCZIFDATA instead of SIOCGIFDATA).
Submitted by Jean-Edouard BABIN in PR bin/21078
However, he suggested using -c, and cgd (reasonably) noted that -z for
"zero" was probably more reasonable.
I've also changed the code very slightly.

New commands:
...
* bssid xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx -- set the desired BSSID of an 802.11
interface.
* -bssid -- unset the desired BSSID of an 802.11 interface, so
the interface will choose automatically (default).
* channel x -- set the channel (radio frequency) of an 802.11 interface.
Current BSSID and channel are now reported in the 802.11 status
display, if supported by the interface.
Above changes from David Young <dyoung@ojctech.com>, with some slight
changes by me (use ethers(3) functions rather than hand-parsing/printing
the 802.11 address).
Document bssid/-bssid/channel, and clean up markup of parentheticals
in the manual page.
