I'm aware there are numerous tools to create and manage network interfaces like ifconfig and NetworkManager. I want to know what standard tools that Server comes preinstalled with and how I can do the following, installing the least additional packages possible:



  • connect to WiFi SSID0 on default interface wlan0

  • create virtual wireless interface wlan1

  • create and broadcast SSID1 from wlan1

  • create virtual bridge br0 for wlan1 and share internet from SSID0 to it

What existing tools can I use to do the above and what more do I need to install? For instance, I'm sure I need to install hostapd to create SSID1, but there might be alternatives I'm not aware of.
