Testing environment setup
-------------------------

The minimum testing system requirements are listed below.

* Two test machines: One as test machine, the other as peer machine in
  IBSS network testing. If only BSS is tested, one test machine is
  enough.
* One server machine: The server machine needs two Ethernet cards, one
  connects to the Test machine network and the other to the AP network.
* One AP: Support Cisco AP, Dlink and ASUS AP with CLI (Command Line
  Interface). For example, Dlink DWL-8200 AP and Cisco1200 series AP.
  Here is an example of our test environment:
