We are integrating an i.MX7S MCU with a Murata module that uses the CYW43455 WiFi/BT chipset and our customer has a question as to whether this solution supports 802.11 monitor mode.

From my research, it seems like Yocto Linux supports the full 802.11 spec, so that should support monitor mode, but are there any restrictions on the CYW43455 that would prevent 802.11 monitor mode from functioning on this combo?

Hi brian_2691236

There is no limitation on the firmware side as such for entering monitor mode.
