WPA supplicant with NO WEP/802.1X authentication

[Ambily N]

Hi,
We are adding WPA supplicant support to AR5005
chipset.
Our configuration file looks like,

network={
        ssid="WBH"
        scan_ssid=1
        key_mgmt=NONE
        }

What we were trying to do was try 802.11 association
without encryption or other authentication using WPA
supplicant.

When we tried this, association and disassociation are
happening but continuing in a loop. What we could
understand was, 

802.11 association is happening,then we receive an
EAPOL packet from the AP,then a timeout of 10 seconds
is registered  as (in wpa.c)

if (wpa_s->eapol_received == 0) {
                /* Timeout for completing IEEE 802.1X
and WPA authentication */
                wpa_supplicant_req_auth_timeout(
                        wpa_s,
                        (wpa_s->key_mgmt ==
WPA_KEY_MGMT_IEEE8021X ||
                         wpa_s->key_mgmt ==
WPA_KEY_MGMT_IEEE8021X_NO_WPA) ?
                        70 : 10, 0);
        }

For this wait to cancel, either an association should
happen or EAPOLDONE state shopuld be reached.But since
association happened before this, it doent happen
again .Also the eapol_done state also is never
reached. So we  deauthenticate and try again.

Is our findings correct? Why does the AP send an EAP
frame for a normal 802.11 association? Is there
anything wrong with our configuraion? The same thing
happens with static WEP keys. association is success,
we are able to ping but soon it gets deauthenticated.


Attaching the Log file also

Regards
Ambily.
