MEMBERS

       channel
	   The channel to use or NULL if not specified (auto-select based on scan results)

       bssid
	   The AP BSSID or NULL if not specified (auto-select based on scan results)

       ssid
	   SSID

       ssid_len
	   Length of ssid in octets

       auth_type
	   Authentication type (algorithm)

       ie
	   IEs for association request

       ie_len
	   Length of assoc_ie in octets

       privacy
	   indicates whether privacy-enabled APs should be used

       mfp
	   indicate whether management frame protection is used

       crypto
	   crypto settings

       key
	   WEP key for shared key authentication

       key_len
	   length of WEP key for shared key authentication

       key_idx
	   index of WEP key for shared key authentication

       flags
	   See enum cfg80211_assoc_req_flags

       bg_scan_period
	   Background scan period in seconds or -1 to indicate that default value is to be used.

       ht_capa
	   HT Capabilities over-rides. Values set in ht_capa_mask will be used in ht_capa. Un-supported values will be ignored.

       ht_capa_mask
	   The bits of ht_capa which are to be used.

       vht_capa
	   VHT Capability overrides

       vht_capa_mask
	   The bits of vht_capa which are to be used.

DESCRIPTION
