iwgetid

IWGETID(8)						     Linux Programmer's Manual							IWGETID(8)

NAME

       iwgetid - Report ESSID, NWID or AP/Cell Address of wireless network

SYNOPSIS

       iwgetid [interface] [--scheme] [--ap] [--freq] [--mode]
			  [--protocol]

DESCRIPTION

       iwgetid	is used to find out the NWID, ESSID or AP/Cell Address of the wireless network that is currently used. The information reported is
       the same as the one shown by iwconfig, but iwgetid is easier to integrate in various scripts.
       By default, iwgetid will print the ESSID of the device, and if the device doesn't have any ESSID it will print its NWID.

OPTIONS

       --scheme
	      This option disables pretty-printing of the information, only the raw ESSID (or NWID, or AP Address) is  printed.  Also,	characters
	      that are not alphanumerics (like space, punctuation and control characters) are skipped.
	      The resulting output is a valid Pcmcia scheme identifier (that may be used as an argument of the command cardctl scheme).  This for-
	      mat is also ideal when using the result of iwgetid as a variable in Shell or Perl scripts.

       --ap   Display the MAC address of the Wireless Access Point or the Cell.

       --freq Display the current frequency or channel used by the interface.

       --mode Display the current mode of the interface.

       --protocol
	      Display the protocol name of the interface. This allow to identify all the cards that are compatible with each other and accept  the
	      same type of configuration.
	      This  can also be used to check Wireless Extension support on the interface, as this is the only attribute that all drivers support-
	      ing Wireless Extension are mandated to support.
