            Bug ID: 282962
           Summary: wpa_supplicant stop takes interface down
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: wireless
          Assignee: wireless@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: bz@FreeBSD.org

After running

sh /etc/rc.d/wpa_supplicant stop wlan0

the wlan interface was down (not UP) again:

# ifconfig wlan0 
wlan0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500

We should fix that.  Stopping the supplicant shouldn't take the IF down and all
that comes along with it.
