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 # When using IBSS or AP mode, ap_scan=2 mode can force the new network to be
112 # created immediately regardless of scan results. ap_scan=1 mode will first try
113 # to scan for existing networks and only if no matches with the enabled
114 # networks are found, a new IBSS or AP mode network is created.
118 # By default, wpa_supplicant implements the mesh peering manager (MPM) for an
119 # open mesh. However, if the driver can implement the MPM, you may set this to
120 # 0 to use the driver version. When AMPE is enabled, the wpa_supplicant MPM is
122 # 0: MPM lives in the driver
123 # 1: wpa_supplicant provides an MPM which handles peering (default)
126 # Maximum number of peer links (0-255; default: 99)
127 # Maximum number of mesh peering currently maintained by the STA.
130 # Timeout in seconds to detect STA inactivity (default: 300 seconds)
132 # This timeout value is used in mesh STA to clean up inactive stations.
133 #mesh_max_inactivity=300
135 # cert_in_cb - Whether to include a peer certificate dump in events
136 # This controls whether peer certificates for authentication server and
137 # its certificate chain are included in EAP peer certificate events. This is
138 # enabled by default.
141 # EAP fast re-authentication
142 # By default, fast re-authentication is enabled for all EAP methods that
143 # support it. This variable can be used to disable fast re-authentication.
144 # Normally, there is no need to disable this.
147 # OpenSSL Engine support
148 # These options can be used to load OpenSSL engines.
149 # The two engines that are supported currently are shown below:

276 # Maximum number of BSS entries to keep in memory
278 # This can be used to limit memory use on the BSS entries (cached scan
279 # results). A larger value may be needed in environments that have huge number
280 # of APs when using ap_scan=1 mode.
284 # This is an optional set of parameters for automatic scanning
285 # within an interface in following format:
286 #autoscan=<autoscan module name>:<module parameters>
287 # autoscan is like bgscan but on disconnected or inactive state.
288 # For instance, on exponential module parameters would be <base>:<limit>
289 #autoscan=exponential:3:300
290 # Which means a delay between scans on a base exponential of 3,
291 # up to the limit of 300 seconds (3, 9, 27 ... 300)
292 # For periodic module, parameters would be <fixed interval>
293 #autoscan=periodic:30

296 # filter_ssids - SSID-based scan result filtering
297 # 0 = do not filter scan results (default)
298 # 1 = only include configured SSIDs in scan results/BSS table

319 #p2p_passphrase_len=8
321 # Extra delay between concurrent P2P search iterations
323 # This value adds extra delay in milliseconds between concurrent search
324 # iterations to make p2p_find friendlier to concurrent operations by avoiding
325 # it from taking 100% of radio resources. The default value is 500 ms.
326 #p2p_search_delay=500
328 # Opportunistic Key Caching (also known as Proactive Key Caching) default
329 # This parameter can be used to set the default behavior for the
330 # proactive_key_caching parameter. By default, OKC is disabled unless enabled
331 # with the global okc=1 parameter or with the per-network
332 # proactive_key_caching=1 parameter. With okc=1, OKC is enabled by default, but
333 # can be disabled with per-network proactive_key_caching=0 parameter.
336 # Protected Management Frames default
337 # This parameter can be used to set the default behavior for the ieee80211w
338 # parameter. By default, PMF is disabled unless enabled with the global pmf=1/2
339 # parameter or with the per-network ieee80211w=1/2 parameter. With pmf=1/2, PMF
340 # is enabled/required by default, but can be disabled with the per-network
341 # ieee80211w parameter.
344 # Enabled SAE finite cyclic groups in preference order
345 # By default (if this parameter is not set), the mandatory group 19 (ECC group
346 # defined over a 256-bit prime order field) is preferred, but other groups are
347 # also enabled. If this parameter is set, the groups will be tried in the
348 # indicated order. The group values are listed in the IANA registry:

355 # Default value for Beacon interval (if not overridden in network block)
358 # Additional vendor specific elements for Beacon and Probe Response frames
359 # This parameter can be used to add additional vendor specific element(s) into
360 # the end of the Beacon and Probe Response frames. The format for these
361 # element(s) is a hexdump of the raw information elements (id+len+payload for
362 # one or more elements). This is used in AP and P2P GO modes.

376 # is already associated.
378 # MAC address policy default
379 # 0 = use permanent MAC address
380 # 1 = use random MAC address for each ESS connection
381 # 2 = like 1, but maintain OUI (with local admin bit set)
383 # By default, permanent MAC address is used unless policy is changed by

598 # Each network (usually AP's sharing the same SSID) is configured as a separate
599 # block in this configuration file. The network blocks are in preference order
600 # (the first match is used).
602 # network block fields:
605 # 0 = this network can be used (default)
606 # 1 = this network block is disabled (can be enabled through ctrl_iface,
607 # e.g., with wpa_cli or wpa_gui)
609 # id_str: Network identifier string for external scripts. This value is passed
610 # to external action script through wpa_cli as WPA_ID_STR environment
611 # variable to make it easier to do network specific configuration.
613 # ssid: SSID (mandatory); network name in one of the optional formats:
614 # - an ASCII string with double quotation
615 # - a hex string (two characters per octet of SSID)
616 # - a printf-escaped ASCII string P"<escaped string>"
619 # 0 = do not scan this SSID with specific Probe Request frames (default)
620 # 1 = scan with SSID-specific Probe Request frames (this can be used to
621 # find APs that do not accept broadcast SSID or use multiple SSIDs;
622 # this will add latency to scanning, so enable this only when needed)
624 # bssid: BSSID (optional); if set, this network block is used only when
625 # associating with the AP using the configured BSSID
627 # priority: priority group (integer)
628 # By default, all networks will get same priority group (0). If some of the
629 # networks are more desirable, this field can be used to change the order in
630 # which wpa_supplicant goes through the networks when selecting a BSS. The
631 # priority groups will be iterated in decreasing priority (i.e., the larger the
632 # priority value, the sooner the network is matched against the scan results).
633 # Within each priority group, networks will be selected based on security
634 # policy, signal strength, etc.
635 # Please note that AP scanning with scan_ssid=1 and ap_scan=2 mode are not
636 # using this priority to select the order for scanning. Instead, they try the
637 # networks in the order that used in the configuration file.
639 # mode: IEEE 802.11 operation mode
640 # 0 = infrastructure (Managed) mode, i.e., associate with an AP (default)
641 # 1 = IBSS (ad-hoc, peer-to-peer)
642 # 2 = AP (access point)
643 # Note: IBSS can only be used with key_mgmt NONE (plaintext and static WEP) and
644 # WPA-PSK (with proto=RSN). In addition, key_mgmt=WPA-NONE (fixed group key
645 # TKIP/CCMP) is available for backwards compatibility, but its use is
646 # deprecated. WPA-None requires following network block options:
647 # proto=WPA, key_mgmt=WPA-NONE, pairwise=NONE, group=TKIP (or CCMP, but not
648 # both), and psk must also be set.
650 # frequency: Channel frequency in megahertz (MHz) for IBSS, e.g.,
651 # 2412 = IEEE 802.11b/g channel 1. This value is used to configure the initial
652 # channel for IBSS (adhoc) networks. It is ignored in the infrastructure mode.
653 # In addition, this value is only used by the station that creates the IBSS. If
654 # an IBSS network with the configured SSID is already present, the frequency of
655 # the network will be used instead of this configured value.
657 # scan_freq: List of frequencies to scan
658 # Space-separated list of frequencies in MHz to scan when searching for this
659 # BSS. If the subset of channels used by the network is known, this option can
660 # be used to optimize scanning to not occur on channels that the network does
661 # not use. Example: scan_freq=2412 2437 2462
663 # freq_list: Array of allowed frequencies
664 # Space-separated list of frequencies in MHz to allow for selecting the BSS. If
665 # set, scan results that do not match any of the specified frequencies are not
666 # considered when selecting a BSS.
668 # This can also be set on the outside of the network block. In this case,
669 # it limits the frequencies that will be scanned.
671 # bgscan: Background scanning
672 # wpa_supplicant behavior for background scanning can be specified by
673 # configuring a bgscan module. These modules are responsible for requesting
674 # background scans for the purpose of roaming within an ESS (i.e., within a
675 # single network block with all the APs using the same SSID). The bgscan
676 # parameter uses following format: "<bgscan module name>:<module parameters>"
677 # Following bgscan modules are available:
678 # simple - Periodic background scans based on signal strength
679 # bgscan="simple:<short bgscan interval in seconds>:<signal strength threshold>:

829 # be used to indicate that the password is stored in external storage.
830 # ca_cert: File path to CA certificate file (PEM/DER). This file can have one
831 # or more trusted CA certificates. If ca_cert and ca_path are not
832 # included, server certificate will not be verified. This is insecure and
833 # a trusted CA certificate should always be configured when using
834 # EAP-TLS/TTLS/PEAP. Full path should be used since working directory may
835 # change when wpa_supplicant is run in the background.
837 # Alternatively, this can be used to only perform matching of the server
838 # certificate (SHA-256 hash of the DER encoded X.509 certificate). In
839 # this case, the possible CA certificates in the server certificate chain
840 # are ignored and only the server certificate is verified. This is
841 # configured with the following format:
842 # hash:://server/sha256/cert_hash_in_hex
843 # For example: "hash://server/sha256/

846 # On Windows, trusted CA certificates can be loaded from the system
847 # certificate store by setting this to cert_store://<name>, e.g.,
848 # ca_cert="cert_store://CA" or ca_cert="cert_store://ROOT".
849 # Note that when running wpa_supplicant as an application, the user
850 # certificate store (My user account) is used, whereas computer store
851 # (Computer account) is used when running wpasvc as a service.
852 # ca_path: Directory path for CA certificate files (PEM). This path may
853 # contain multiple CA certificates in OpenSSL format. Common use for this
854 # is to point to system trusted CA list which is often installed into
855 # directory like /etc/ssl/certs. If configured, these certificates are
856 # added to the list of trusted CAs. ca_cert may also be included in that
857 # case, but it is not required.
858 # client_cert: File path to client certificate file (PEM/DER)
859 # Full path should be used since working directory may change when
860 # wpa_supplicant is run in the background.
861 # Alternatively, a named configuration blob can be used by setting this
862 # to blob://<blob name>.
863 # private_key: File path to client private key file (PEM/DER/PFX)
864 # When PKCS#12/PFX file (.p12/.pfx) is used, client_cert should be
865 # commented out. Both the private key and certificate will be read from
866 # the PKCS#12 file in this case. Full path should be used since working
867 # directory may change when wpa_supplicant is run in the background.
868 # Windows certificate store can be used by leaving client_cert out and
869 # configuring private_key in one of the following formats:
870 # cert://substring_to_match
871 # hash://certificate_thumbprint_in_hex
872 # for example: private_key="hash://63093aa9c47f56ae88334c7b65a4"
873 # Note that when running wpa_supplicant as an application, the user
874 # certificate store (My user account) is used, whereas computer store
875 # (Computer account) is used when running wpasvc as a service.
876 # Alternatively, a named configuration blob can be used by setting this
877 # to blob://<blob name>.
878 # private_key_passwd: Password for private key file (if left out, this will be
879 # asked through control interface)
880 # dh_file: File path to DH/DSA parameters file (in PEM format)
881 # This is an optional configuration file for setting parameters for an
882 # ephemeral DH key exchange. In most cases, the default RSA
883 # authentication does not use this configuration. However, it is possible
884 # setup RSA to use ephemeral DH key exchange. In addition, ciphers with
885 # DSA keys always use ephemeral DH keys. This can be used to achieve
886 # forward secrecy. If the file is in DSA parameters format, it will be
887 # automatically converted into DH params.
888 # subject_match: Substring to be matched against the subject of the
889 # authentication server certificate. If this string is set, the server
890 # sertificate is only accepted if it contains this string in the subject.
891 # The subject string is in following format:
892 # /C=US/ST=CA/L=San Francisco/CN=Test AS/emailAddress=as@example.com
893 # Note: Since this is a substring match, this cannot be used securily to
894 # do a suffix match against a possible domain name in the CN entry. For
895 # such a use case, domain_suffix_match or domain_match should be used
897 # altsubject_match: Semicolon separated string of entries to be matched against
898 # the alternative subject name of the authentication server certificate.
899 # If this string is set, the server sertificate is only accepted if it
900 # contains one of the entries in an alternative subject name extension.
901 # altSubjectName string is in following format: TYPE:VALUE
902 # Example: EMAIL:server@example.com
903 # Example: DNS:server.example.com;DNS:server2.example.com
904 # Following types are supported: EMAIL, DNS, URI
905 # domain_suffix_match: Constraint for server domain name. If set, this FQDN is
906 # used as a suffix match requirement for the AAAserver certificate in
907 # SubjectAltName dNSName element(s). If a matching dNSName is found, this
908 # constraint is met. If no dNSName values are present, this constraint is
909 # matched against SubjectName CN using same suffix match comparison.
911 # Suffix match here means that the host/domain name is compared one label
912 # at a time starting from the top-level domain and all the labels in
913 # domain_suffix_match shall be included in the certificate. The
914 # certificate may include additional sub-level labels in addition to the
917 # For example, domain_suffix_match=example.com would match
918 # test.example.com but would not match test-example.com.
919 # domain_match: Constraint for server domain name
920 # If set, this FQDN is used as a full match requirement for the
921 # server certificate in SubjectAltName dNSName element(s). If a
922 # matching dNSName is found, this constraint is met. If no dNSName
923 # values are present, this constraint is matched against SubjectName CN
924 # using same full match comparison. This behavior is similar to
925 # domain_suffix_match, but has the requirement of a full match, i.e.,
926 # no subdomains or wildcard matches are allowed. Case-insensitive
927 # comparison is used, so "Example.com" matches "example.com", but would
928 # not match "test.Example.com".
929 # phase1: Phase1 (outer authentication, i.e., TLS tunnel) parameters
930 # (string with field-value pairs, e.g., "peapver=0" or
931 # "peapver=1 peaplabel=1")
932 # 'peapver' can be used to force which PEAP version (0 or 1) is used.
933 # 'peaplabel=1' can be used to force new label, "client PEAP encryption",
934 # to be used during key derivation when PEAPv1 or newer. Most existing
935 # PEAPv1 implementation seem to be using the old label, "client EAP
936 # encryption", and wpa_supplicant is now using that as the default value.
937 # Some servers, e.g., Radiator, may require peaplabel=1 configuration to
938 # interoperate with PEAPv1; see eap_testing.txt for more details.
939 # 'peap_outer_success=0' can be used to terminate PEAP authentication on
940 # tunneled EAP-Success. This is required with some RADIUS servers that
941 # implement draft-josefsson-pppext-eap-tls-eap-05.txt (e.g.,
942 # Lucent NavisRadius v4.4.0 with PEAP in "IETF Draft 5" mode)
943 # include_tls_length=1 can be used to force wpa_supplicant to include
944 # TLS Message Length field in all TLS messages even if they are not
946 # sim_min_num_chal=3 can be used to configure EAP-SIM to require three
947 # challenges (by default, it accepts 2 or 3)
948 # result_ind=1 can be used to enable EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA to use
949 # protected result indication.
950 # 'crypto_binding' option can be used to control PEAPv0 cryptobinding
952 # * 0 = do not use cryptobinding (default)
953 # * 1 = use cryptobinding if server supports it
954 # * 2 = require cryptobinding
955 # EAP-WSC (WPS) uses following options: pin=<Device Password> or
958 # For wired IEEE 802.1X authentication, "allow_canned_success=1" can be
959 # used to configure a mode that allows EAP-Success (and EAP-Failure)
960 # without going through authentication step. Some switches use such
961 # sequence when forcing the port to be authorized/unauthorized or as a
962 # fallback option if the authentication server is unreachable. By default,
963 # wpa_supplicant discards such frames to protect against potential attacks
964 # by rogue devices, but this option can be used to disable that protection

968 # (string with field-value pairs, e.g., "auth=MSCHAPV2" for EAP-PEAP or
969 # "autheap=MSCHAPV2 autheap=MD5" for EAP-TTLS). "mschapv2_retry=0" can be
970 # used to disable MSCHAPv2 password retry in authentication failure cases.
972 # TLS-based methods can use the following parameters to control TLS behavior
973 # (these are normally in the phase1 parameter, but can be used also in the
974 # phase2 parameter when EAP-TLS is used within the inner tunnel):
975 # tls_allow_md5=1 - allow MD5-based certificate signatures (depending on the
976 # TLS library, these may be disabled by default to enforce stronger
978 # tls_disable_time_checks=1 - ignore certificate validity time (this requests
979 # the TLS library to accept certificates even if they are not currently
980 # valid, i.e., have expired or have not yet become valid; this should be
981 # used only for testing purposes)
982 # tls_disable_session_ticket=1 - disable TLS Session Ticket extension
983 # tls_disable_session_ticket=0 - allow TLS Session Ticket extension to be used
984 # Note: If not set, this is automatically set to 1 for EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS
985 # as a workaround for broken authentication server implementations unless
986 # EAP workarounds are disabled with eap_workaround=0.
987 # For EAP-FAST, this must be set to 0 (or left unconfigured for the
988 # default value to be used automatically).
