Zephyr WiFi

Quick Start

1. Enable WiFi: CONFIG_WIFI=y and driver (e.g., CONFIG_WIFI_NRF70=y) in prj.conf
2. Enable Management API: CONFIG_NET_L2_WIFI_MGMT=y
3. Choose Mode: STA (station) or AP (access point)
4. Get Interface: net_if_get_wifi_sta() or net_if_get_wifi_sap()
5. Connect/Enable AP: Use net_mgmt() with NET_REQUEST_WIFI_* commands

Core Initialization Pattern

#include <zephyr/net/net_if.h>
#include <zephyr/net/wifi_mgmt.h>
#include <zephyr/net/net_mgmt.h>

static struct net_mgmt_event_callback wifi_cb;

static void wifi_event_handler(struct net_mgmt_event_callback *cb,
                               uint32_t mgmt_event, struct net_if *iface)
{
    switch (mgmt_event) {
    case NET_EVENT_WIFI_CONNECT_RESULT:
        /* Handle connection result */
        break;
    case NET_EVENT_WIFI_DISCONNECT_RESULT:
        /* Handle disconnection */
        break;
    case NET_EVENT_WIFI_SCAN_RESULT:
        /* Handle scan result */
        break;
    case NET_EVENT_WIFI_SCAN_DONE:
        /* Scan complete */
        break;
    }
}

int main(void)
{
    struct net_if *iface = net_if_get_wifi_sta();
    if (!iface) {
        printk("WiFi interface not found\n");
        return -1;
    }

    /* Register event callbacks */
    net_mgmt_init_event_callback(&wifi_cb, wifi_event_handler,
                                 NET_EVENT_WIFI_CONNECT_RESULT |
                                 NET_EVENT_WIFI_DISCONNECT_RESULT |
                                 NET_EVENT_WIFI_SCAN_RESULT |
                                 NET_EVENT_WIFI_SCAN_DONE);
    net_mgmt_add_event_callback(&wifi_cb);

    /* Ready to scan/connect */
}
