Useful feature if running multiple radios on single AP with
the same SSIDs or multiple APs to get good area coverage.
This is how hostapd should be used, this enables real
band steering, since the daemon has knownledge about
all bands.
Normally you don't want this, but there may be cases with
stupid IoT devices. They are therefore disabled by default.
Infix controlls the ip_forwad (ipv4/ipv6) per interface, enable it
globally just mess things up.
