Similarly, the 30.3.8. Troubleshooting sub-section may also need updating. In the example given to utilise the wlandebug(8) tool, the command is given an argument of the parent ath0 interface, which no longer exists. The "ath0" should be replaced with "wlan0" in this example: # wlandebug -i ath0 +scan+auth+debug+assoc net.wlan.0.debug: 0 => 0xc80000<assoc,auth,scan> A commit references this bug: Author: bcr Date: Fri Mar 10 12:32:33 UTC 2017 New revision: 50044 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/doc/50044 Log: Add a section for FreeBSD 11 and higher as this one uses a different method of detecting the wireless devices in the system (using sysctl). Additionally, change the wlandebug example to wlan0.
