1 ##### Example wpa_supplicant configuration file ###############################
3 # This file describes configuration file format and lists all available option.
4 # Please also take a look at simpler configuration examples in 'examples'
7 # Empty lines and lines starting with # are ignored
9 # NOTE! This file may contain password information and should probably be made
10 # readable only by root user on multiuser systems.
12 # Note: All file paths in this configuration file should use full (absolute,
13 # not relative to working directory) path in order to allow working directory
14 # to be changed. This can happen if wpa_supplicant is run in the background.
16 # Whether to allow wpa_supplicant to update (overwrite) configuration
18 # This option can be used to allow wpa_supplicant to overwrite configuration
19 # file whenever configuration is changed (e.g., new network block is added with
20 # wpa_cli or wpa_gui, or a password is changed). This is required for
21 # wpa_cli/wpa_gui to be able to store the configuration changes permanently.
22 # Please note that overwriting configuration file will remove the comments from
26 # global configuration (shared by all network blocks)
28 # Parameters for the control interface. If this is specified, wpa_supplicant
29 # will open a control interface that is available for external programs to
30 # manage wpa_supplicant. The meaning of this string depends on which control
31 # interface mechanism is used. For all cases, the existence of this parameter
32 # in configuration is used to determine whether the control interface is
35 # For UNIX domain sockets (default on Linux and BSD): This is a directory that
36 # will be created for UNIX domain sockets for listening to requests from
37 # external programs (CLI/GUI, etc.) for status information and configuration.
38 # The socket file will be named based on the interface name, so multiple
39 # wpa_supplicant processes can be run at the same time if more than one
41 # /var/run/wpa_supplicant is the recommended directory for sockets and by
42 # default, wpa_cli will use it when trying to connect with wpa_supplicant.
44 # Access control for the control interface can be configured by setting the
45 # directory to allow only members of a group to use sockets. This way, it is
46 # possible to run wpa_supplicant as root (since it needs to change network
47 # configuration and open raw sockets) and still allow GUI/CLI components to be
48 # run as non-root users. However, since the control interface can be used to
49 # change the network configuration, this access needs to be protected in many
50 # cases. By default, wpa_supplicant is configured to use gid 0 (root). If you
51 # want to allow non-root users to use the control interface, add a new group
52 # and change this value to match with that group. Add users that should have
53 # control interface access to this group. If this variable is commented out or
54 # not included in the configuration file, group will not be changed from the
55 # value it got by default when the directory or socket was created.
57 # When configuring both the directory and group, use following format:
58 # DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=wheel
59 # DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=0
60 # (group can be either group name or gid)
62 # For UDP connections (default on Windows): The value will be ignored. This
63 # variable is just used to select that the control interface is to be created.
64 # The value can be set to, e.g., udp (ctrl_interface=udp)
66 # For Windows Named Pipe: This value can be used to set the security descriptor
67 # for controlling access to the control interface. Security descriptor can be
68 # set using Security Descriptor String Format (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/
69 # library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/secauthz/security/
70 # security_descriptor_string_format.asp). The descriptor string needs to be
71 # prefixed with SDDL=. For example, ctrl_interface=SDDL=D: would set an empty
72 # DACL (which will reject all connections). See README-Windows.txt for more
73 # information about SDDL string format.
75 ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
77 # IEEE 802.1X/EAPOL version
78 # wpa_supplicant is implemented based on IEEE Std 802.1X-2004 which defines
79 # EAPOL version 2. However, there are many APs that do not handle the new
80 # version number correctly (they seem to drop the frames completely). In order
81 # to make wpa_supplicant interoperate with these APs, the version number is set
82 # to 1 by default. This configuration value can be used to set it to the new
84 # Note: When using MACsec, eapol_version shall be set to 3, which is
85 # defined in IEEE Std 802.1X-2010.
88 # AP scanning/selection
89 # By default, wpa_supplicant requests driver to perform AP scanning and then
90 # uses the scan results to select a suitable AP. Another alternative is to
91 # allow the driver to take care of AP scanning and selection and use
92 # wpa_supplicant just to process EAPOL frames based on IEEE 802.11 association
93 # information from the driver.
94 # 1: wpa_supplicant initiates scanning and AP selection; if no APs matching to
95 # the currently enabled networks are found, a new network (IBSS or AP mode
96 # operation) may be initialized (if configured) (default)
97 # 0: driver takes care of scanning, AP selection, and IEEE 802.11 association
98 # parameters (e.g., WPA IE generation); this mode can also be used with
99 # non-WPA drivers when using IEEE 802.1X mode; do not try to associate with
100 # APs (i.e., external program needs to control association). This mode must
101 # also be used when using wired Ethernet drivers.
102 # Note: macsec_qca driver is one type of Ethernet driver which implements
104 # 2: like 0, but associate with APs using security policy and SSID (but not
105 # BSSID); this can be used, e.g., with ndiswrapper and NDIS drivers to
106 # enable operation with hidden SSIDs and optimized roaming; in this mode,
107 # the network blocks in the configuration file are tried one by one until
108 # the driver reports successful association; each network block should have
109 # explicit security policy (i.e., only one option in the lists) for
110 # key_mgmt, pairwise, group, proto variables
111 # Note: ap_scan=2 should not be used with the nl80211 driver interface (the
112 # current Linux interface). ap_scan=1 is optimized work working with nl80211.
113 # For finding networks using hidden SSID, scan_ssid=1 in the network block can
114 # be used with nl80211.
115 # When using IBSS or AP mode, ap_scan=2 mode can force the new network to be
116 # created immediately regardless of scan results. ap_scan=1 mode will first try
117 # to scan for existing networks and only if no matches with the enabled
118 # networks are found, a new IBSS or AP mode network is created.
121 # Whether to force passive scan for network connection
123 # By default, scans will send out Probe Request frames on channels that allow
124 # active scanning. This advertise the local station to the world. Normally this
125 # is fine, but users may wish to do passive scanning where the radio should only
126 # listen quietly for Beacon frames and not send any Probe Request frames. Actual
127 # functionality may be driver dependent.
129 # This parameter can be used to force only passive scanning to be used
130 # for network connection cases. It should be noted that this will slow
131 # down scan operations and reduce likelihood of finding the AP. In
132 # addition, some use cases will override this due to functional
133 # requirements, e.g., for finding an AP that uses hidden SSID
134 # (scan_ssid=1) or P2P device discovery.
136 # 0: Do normal scans (allow active scans) (default)
137 # 1: Do passive scans.
141 # By default, wpa_supplicant implements the mesh peering manager (MPM) for an
142 # open mesh. However, if the driver can implement the MPM, you may set this to
143 # 0 to use the driver version. When AMPE is enabled, the wpa_supplicant MPM is
145 # 0: MPM lives in the driver
146 # 1: wpa_supplicant provides an MPM which handles peering (default)
149 # Maximum number of peer links (0-255; default: 99)
150 # Maximum number of mesh peering currently maintained by the STA.
153 # Timeout in seconds to detect STA inactivity (default: 300 seconds)
155 # This timeout value is used in mesh STA to clean up inactive stations.
156 #mesh_max_inactivity=300
158 # cert_in_cb - Whether to include a peer certificate dump in events
159 # This controls whether peer certificates for authentication server and
160 # its certificate chain are included in EAP peer certificate events. This is
161 # enabled by default.
164 # EAP fast re-authentication
165 # By default, fast re-authentication is enabled for all EAP methods that
166 # support it. This variable can be used to disable fast re-authentication.
167 # Normally, there is no need to disable this.

313 # autoscan is like bgscan but on disconnected or inactive state.
314 # For instance, on exponential module parameters would be <base>:<limit>
315 #autoscan=exponential:3:300
316 # Which means a delay between scans on a base exponential of 3,

738 # 0 = do not use PBSS
740 # 2 = don't care (not allowed in AP mode)
741 # Used together with mode configuration. When mode is AP, it means to start a

932 # ca_cert: File path to CA certificate file (PEM/DER). This file can have one
933 # or more trusted CA certificates. If ca_cert and ca_path are not
934 # included, server certificate will not be verified. This is insecure and
935 # a trusted CA certificate should always be configured when using
936 # EAP-TLS/TTLS/PEAP. Full path should be used since working directory may
937 # change when wpa_supplicant is run in the background.
939 # Alternatively, this can be used to only perform matching of the server
940 # certificate (SHA-256 hash of the DER encoded X.509 certificate). In
941 # this case, the possible CA certificates in the server certificate chain

948 # On Windows, trusted CA certificates can be loaded from the system
949 # certificate store by setting this to cert_store://<name>, e.g.,
950 # ca_cert="cert_store://CA" or ca_cert="cert_store://ROOT".
951 # Note that when running wpa_supplicant as an application, the user
952 # certificate store (My user account) is used, whereas computer store
953 # (Computer account) is used when running wpasvc as a service.
954 # ca_path: Directory path for CA certificate files (PEM). This path may
955 # contain multiple CA certificates in OpenSSL format. Common use for this
956 # is to point to system trusted CA list which is often installed into
957 # directory like /etc/ssl/certs. If configured, these certificates are
958 # added to the list of trusted CAs. ca_cert may also be included in that
959 # case, but it is not required.
960 # client_cert: File path to client certificate file (PEM/DER)
961 # Full path should be used since working directory may change when
962 # wpa_supplicant is run in the background.
963 # Alternatively, a named configuration blob can be used by setting this
964 # to blob://<blob name>.
965 # private_key: File path to client private key file (PEM/DER/PFX)
966 # When PKCS#12/PFX file (.p12/.pfx) is used, client_cert should be
967 # commented out. Both the private key and certificate will be read from
968 # the PKCS#12 file in this case. Full path should be used since working
969 # directory may change when wpa_supplicant is run in the background.
970 # Windows certificate store can be used by leaving client_cert out and
971 # configuring private_key in one of the following formats:
972 # cert://substring_to_match
973 # hash://certificate_thumbprint_in_hex
974 # for example: private_key="hash://63093aa9c47f56ae88334c7b65a4"
975 # Note that when running wpa_supplicant as an application, the user
976 # certificate store (My user account) is used, whereas computer store
977 # (Computer account) is used when running wpasvc as a service.
978 # Alternatively, a named configuration blob can be used by setting this
979 # to blob://<blob name>.
980 # private_key_passwd: Password for private key file (if left out, this will be
981 # asked through control interface)
982 # dh_file: File path to DH/DSA parameters file (in PEM format)
983 # This is an optional configuration file for setting parameters for an
984 # ephemeral DH key exchange. In most cases, the default RSA
985 # authentication does not use this configuration. However, it is possible
986 # setup RSA to use ephemeral DH key exchange. In addition, ciphers with
987 # DSA keys always use ephemeral DH keys. This can be used to achieve
988 # forward secrecy. If the file is in DSA parameters format, it will be
989 # automatically converted into DH params.
990 # subject_match: Substring to be matched against the subject of the
991 # authentication server certificate. If this string is set, the server
992 # sertificate is only accepted if it contains this string in the subject.
993 # The subject string is in following format:
994 # /C=US/ST=CA/L=San Francisco/CN=Test AS/emailAddress=as@example.com
995 # Note: Since this is a substring match, this cannot be used securily to
996 # do a suffix match against a possible domain name in the CN entry. For
997 # such a use case, domain_suffix_match or domain_match should be used
999 # altsubject_match: Semicolon separated string of entries to be matched against
1000 # the alternative subject name of the authentication server certificate.
1001 # If this string is set, the server sertificate is only accepted if it
1002 # contains one of the entries in an alternative subject name extension.
1003 # altSubjectName string is in following format: TYPE:VALUE
1004 # Example: EMAIL:server@example.com
1005 # Example: DNS:server.example.com;DNS:server2.example.com
1006 # Following types are supported: EMAIL, DNS, URI
1007 # domain_suffix_match: Constraint for server domain name. If set, this FQDN is
1008 # used as a suffix match requirement for the AAAserver certificate in
1009 # SubjectAltName dNSName element(s). If a matching dNSName is found, this
1010 # constraint is met. If no dNSName values are present, this constraint is
1011 # matched against SubjectName CN using same suffix match comparison.
1013 # Suffix match here means that the host/domain name is compared one label
1014 # at a time starting from the top-level domain and all the labels in
1015 # domain_suffix_match shall be included in the certificate. The
1016 # certificate may include additional sub-level labels in addition to the
1019 # For example, domain_suffix_match=example.com would match
1020 # test.example.com but would not match test-example.com.
1021 # domain_match: Constraint for server domain name
1022 # If set, this FQDN is used as a full match requirement for the
1023 # server certificate in SubjectAltName dNSName element(s). If a
1024 # matching dNSName is found, this constraint is met. If no dNSName
1025 # values are present, this constraint is matched against SubjectName CN
1026 # using same full match comparison. This behavior is similar to
1027 # domain_suffix_match, but has the requirement of a full match, i.e.,
1028 # no subdomains or wildcard matches are allowed. Case-insensitive
1029 # comparison is used, so "Example.com" matches "example.com", but would
1030 # not match "test.Example.com".
1031 # phase1: Phase1 (outer authentication, i.e., TLS tunnel) parameters
1032 # (string with field-value pairs, e.g., "peapver=0" or

1034 # 'peapver' can be used to force which PEAP version (0 or 1) is used.
1035 # 'peaplabel=1' can be used to force new label, "client PEAP encryption",
1036 # to be used during key derivation when PEAPv1 or newer. Most existing
1037 # PEAPv1 implementation seem to be using the old label, "client EAP
1038 # encryption", and wpa_supplicant is now using that as the default value.
1039 # Some servers, e.g., Radiator, may require peaplabel=1 configuration to
1040 # interoperate with PEAPv1; see eap_testing.txt for more details.
1041 # 'peap_outer_success=0' can be used to terminate PEAP authentication on
1042 # tunneled EAP-Success. This is required with some RADIUS servers that
1043 # implement draft-josefsson-pppext-eap-tls-eap-05.txt (e.g.,
1044 # Lucent NavisRadius v4.4.0 with PEAP in "IETF Draft 5" mode)
1045 # include_tls_length=1 can be used to force wpa_supplicant to include

1081 # the TLS library to accept certificates even if they are not currently
1082 # valid, i.e., have expired or have not yet become valid; this should be
1083 # used only for testing purposes)
1084 # tls_disable_session_ticket=1 - disable TLS Session Ticket extension
1085 # tls_disable_session_ticket=0 - allow TLS Session Ticket extension to be used
1086 # Note: If not set, this is automatically set to 1 for EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS
1087 # as a workaround for broken authentication server implementations unless
1088 # EAP workarounds are disabled with eap_workaround=0.
