+Pre-requisites:
+1. Ensure you have hostapd installed.
+2. Verify that the kernel has mac80211_hwsim.
+
+Setup:
+1. Create radios using mac80211_hwsim. For most tests, we need 2 radios.
+    sudo modprobe mac80211_hwsim radios=2
+2. Enable network interfaces:
+    sudo ifconfig wlan0 up
+    sudo ifconfig wlan1 up
+
+Run tests (e.g. connectDisconnect test):
+1. Start hostapd, with a config file as an argument.
+    You can use the IntelWIFI.conf file in autotests/test1AP directory.
+    sudo ./hostapd <path to autotests dir/test1AP/IntelWIFI.conf>
+2. Start iwd.
+    sudo iwd
+3. Start connectDisconnect test (inside autotests directory).
+    cd <iwd>/autotests/test1AP
+    ./connectDisconnect.py
+
+Note: This will not work with test-runner for now because of entropy issue. WIP.
+
+Optional changes:
+1. You can provide your own config file to hostapd. If so, then you would need to
+    change the assert inside the test to the name of the ssid in your test.
+    self.assertEqual(connectedNetworkName, "IntelWIFI")
