Scanning

While in STA mode, the scanning feature is utilized to find and connect to available APs on available channels. The CC33xx device can be configured to utilize either a passive or active scan. The fundamental difference is that during an active scan the device is actively sending probes out as it switches channels while in a passive scan it listens on each channel for beacons sent out by APs.
