{{Note|Debian 12<br>ipv4 forwarding must be turned on manually}}
* Enable port forwarding:
:<pre>compulab@compulab-imx8mp:~$ sudo sed -i 's/^#\(net.ipv[4,6].*forward\)/\1/' /etc/sysctl.conf</pre>

* Enable wireless AP (replace ''<SSID>'' and ''<PASSWORD>'' with desired access point parameters):
:<pre>sudo nmcli device wifi hotspot ssid <SSID> password <PASSWORD> con-name HotspotCon-${wlan} ifname ${wlan}</pre>
* Disable wireless AP:
:<pre>compulab@compulab-imx8mp:~$ sudo nmcli connection down HotspotCon-${wlan}</pre>
* Enable wireless AP again:
:<pre>compulab@compulab-imx8mp:~$ sudo nmcli connection up HotspotCon-${wlan}</pre>
