+# Testing Hardware Features {#sec-nixos-test-testing-hardware-features}
+
+This section covers how to test various features using NixOS tests that would
+normally only be possible with hardware. It is designed to showcase the NixOS test
+framework's flexibility when combined with various hardware simulation libraries
+or kernel modules.
+
+## Wi-Fi {#sec-nixos-test-wifi}
+
+Use `services.vwifi` to set up a virtual Wi-Fi physical layer. Create at least two nodes
+for this kind of test: one with vwifi active, and either a station or an access point.
+Give each a static IP address on the test network so they will never collide.
+This module likely supports other topologies too; document them if you make one.
+
+This NixOS module leverages [vwifi](https://github.com/Raizo62/vwifi). Read the
+upstream repository's documentation for more information.
+
+### vwifi server {#sec-nixos-test-wifi-vwifi-server}
+
+This node runs the vwifi server, and otherwise does not interact with the network.
+You can run `vwifi-ctrl` on this node to control characteristics of the simulated
+physical layer.
+
+```nix
+airgap =
+  { config, ... }:
+  {
+    networking.interfaces.eth1.ipv4.addresses = lib.mkForce [
+      {
+        address = "192.168.1.2";
+        prefixLength = 24;
+      }
+    ];
+    services.vwifi = {
+      server = {
+        enable = true;
+        ports.tcp = 8212;
+        # uncomment if you want to enable monitor mode on another node
+        # ports.spy = 8213;
+        openFirewall = true;
+      };
+    };
+  };
+```
+
+### AP {#sec-nixos-test-wifi-ap}
+
+A node like this will act as a wireless access point in infrastructure mode.
+
+```nix
+ap =
+  { config, ... }:
+  {
+    networking.interfaces.eth1.ipv4.addresses = lib.mkForce [
+      {
+        address = "192.168.1.3";
+        prefixLength = 24;
+      }
+    ];
+    services.hostapd = {
+      enable = true;
+      radios.wlan0 = {
+        channel = 1;
+        networks.wlan0 = {
+          ssid = "NixOS Test Wi-Fi Network";
+          authentication = {
+            mode = "wpa3-sae";
+            saePasswords = [ { password = "supersecret"; } ];
+            enableRecommendedPairwiseCiphers = true;
+          };
+        };
+      };
+    };
+    services.vwifi = {
+      module = {
+        enable = true;
+        macPrefix = "74:F8:F6:00:01";
+      };
+      client = {
+        enable = true;
+        serverAddress = "192.168.1.2";
+      };
+    };
+  };
+```
+
+### Station {#sec-nixos-test-wifi-station}
+
+A node like this acts as a wireless client.
+
+```nix
+station =
+  { config, ... }:
+  {
+    networking.interfaces.eth1.ipv4.addresses = lib.mkForce [
+      {
+        address = "192.168.1.3";
+        prefixLength = 24;
+      }
+    ];
+    networking.wireless = {
+      # No, really, we want it enabled!
+      enable = lib.mkOverride 0 true;
+      interfaces = [ "wlan0" ];
+      networks = {
+        "NixOS Test Wi-Fi Network" = {
+          psk = "supersecret";
+          authProtocols = [ "SAE" ];
+        };
+      };
+    };
+    services.vwifi = {
+      module = {
+        enable = true;
+        macPrefix = "74:F8:F6:00:02";
+      };
+      client = {
+        enable = true;
+        serverAddress = "192.168.1.2";
+      };
+    };
+  };
+```
+
+### Monitor {#sec-nixos-test-wifi-monitor}
+
+When the monitor mode interface is enabled, this node will receive
+all packets broadcast by all other nodes through the spy interface.
+
+```nix
+monitor =
+  { config, ... }:
+  {
+    networking.interfaces.eth1.ipv4.addresses = lib.mkForce [
+      {
+        address = "192.168.1.4";
+        prefixLength = 24;
+      }
+    ];
+
+    services.vwifi = {
+      module = {
+        enable = true;
+        macPrefix = "74:F8:F6:00:03";
+      };
+      client = {
+        enable = true;
+        spy = true;
+        serverAddress = "192.168.1.2";
+      };
+    };
+```
