Wifi Issues - Connect/Disconnect to wifi via command line using id_str

Post by /RaspberryPi »

I have 2 wifi networks available to me. 99% of the time, I want to connect to X network. 1% of the time, I want to switch to the other wifi network, do some commands and then switch back to the other wifi.
I have both wifi networks setup in the wpa_supplicant.conf file with id_str assigned to them. What command line command, would I type to disconnect from the main wifi and connect to the secondary? I've searched but I can't find where to actually use the referenced id_str.
