                 netmask 0xffffff00

       Join a specific BSS network with network name “my_net”:

             ifconfigwlancreatewlandevurtw0ssidmy_netup

       Join a specific BSS network with 64-bit WEP encryption:

             ifconfig wlan create wlandev urtw0 ssid my_net \
                     wepmode on wepkey 0x1234567890 weptxkey 1 up
