ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant ctrl_interface_group=0 # IEEE 802.1X/EAPOL version # wpa_supplicant was implemented based on IEEE 802-1X-REV-d8 which defines # EAPOL version 2. However, there are many APs that do not handle the new # version number correctly (they seem to drop the frames completely). In order # to make wpa_supplicant interoperate with these APs, the version number is set # to 1 by default. This configuration value can be used to set it to the new # version (2). eapol_version=1 # AP scanning/selection # By default, wpa_supplicant requests driver to perform AP scanning and then # uses the scan results to select a suitable AP. Another alternative is to # allow the driver to take care of AP scanning and selection and use # wpa_supplicant just to process EAPOL frames based on IEEE 802.11 association # information from the driver. # 1: wpa_supplicant initiates scanning and AP selection # 0: driver takes care of scanning, AP selection, and IEEE 802.11 association # parameters (e.g., WPA IE generation); this mode can also be used with # non-WPA drivers when using IEEE 802.1X mode; do not try to associate with # APs (i.e., external program needs to control association) # 2: like 0, but associate with APs using security policy and SSID (but not # BSSID); this can be used, e.g., with ndiswrapper and NDIS driver to # enable operation with hidden SSIDs and optimized roaming; in this mode, # only the first network block in the configuration file is used and this # configuration should have explicit security policy (i.e., only one option # in the lists) for key_mgmt, pairwise, group, proto variables ap_scan=0 # EAP fast re-authentication # By default, fast re-authentication is enabled for all EAP methods that # support it. This variable can be used to disable fast re-authentication. # Normally, there is no need to disable this. fast_reauth=1 # network block # # Each network (usually AP's sharing the same SSID) is configured as a separate # block in this configuration file. The network blocks are in preference order # (the first match is used). # # network block fields: # # ssid: SSID (mandatory); either as an ASCII string with double quotation or # as hex string; network name # # scan_ssid: # 0 = do not scan this SSID with specific Probe Request frames (default) # 1 = scan with SSID-specific Probe Request frames (this can be used to # find APs that do not accept broadcast SSID or use multiple SSIDs; # this will add latency to scanning, so enable this only when needed) # # bssid: BSSID (optional); if set, this network block is used only when # associating with the AP using the configured BSSID # # priority: priority group (integer) # By default, all networks will get same priority group (0). If some of the # networks are more desirable, this field can be used to change the order in # which wpa_supplicant goes through the networks when selecting a BSS. The # priority groups will be iterated in decreasing priority (i.e., the larger the # priority value, the sooner the network is matched against the scan results). # Within each priority group, networks will be selected based on security # policy, signal strength, etc. # Please note that AP scanning with scan_ssid=1 is not using this priority to # select the order for scanning. Instead, it uses the order the networks are in # the configuration file. # # mode: IEEE 802.11 operation mode # 0 = infrastructure (Managed) mode, i.e., associate with an AP (default) # 1 = IBSS (ad-hoc, peer-to-peer) # Note: IBSS can only be used with key_mgmt NONE (plaintext and static WEP) # and key_mgmt=WPA-NONE (fixed group key TKIP/CCMP). In addition, ap_scan has # to be set to 2 for IBSS.
