Prototype
Note that since every Wireless Manager’s Mgmt() function is accessed only by function pointer via the Wireless Manager’s API structure, it doesn’t need to be globally available and should therefore be declared as ‘static’.
Arguments

The driver can define and implement its own management commands which need a response by calling the Wireless Manager api (p_mgr_api->Mgmt()) to send the management command and to receive the response.
