  46. .Sh DESCRIPTION
  47. The
  48. .Nm net80211
  49. layer includes
  50. .Xr ddb 4
  51. support for displaying important data structures.
  52. This is especially important because wireless applications are often
  53. built for embedded environments where cross-machine or post-mortem
  54. debugging facilities like
  55. .Xr kgdb 1
  56. are infeasible.
  57. .Pp
  58. The most commonly used command is
  59. .Bd -literal -offset indent
  60. show all vaps/a
  61. .Ed
  62. .Pp
  63. which dumps the contents of all
  64. .Vt ieee80211vap ,
  65. .Vt ieee80211com ,
  66. and
  67. .Vt ieee80211_node
  68. data structures in the system.
