MAC OSX El Capitan: Airport Sym link not permitted

Question

I tried making a symbolic link to the airport command in MAC OS X El Capitan, using the command:

sudo ln -s /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Apple8         


        

Answer 1

The target directory should be /usr/local/bin/airport

See the article on System Integrity Protection for more information as to why the directories have changed.

sudo ln -s /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Apple80211.framework/Versions/Current/Resources/airport /usr/local/bin/airport
