Hello Jouni or Anyother
I want to have a MPF (802.11w) enabled network. I have a wpa_supplicant -0.6.8 and hostapd-0.6.8 on my Linux wireless-testing kernel 2.6.29.? I am using nl80211 driver for Atheros AR922X NICs based on ath9k. The wpa_supplicant configuration is as follow
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
update_config=1
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1
network={
??? ssid="WLAN-Test"
??? proto=RSN
??? key_mgmt=WPA-PSK-SHA256
??? scan_ssid=1
??? pairwise=CCMP
??? group=CCMP
??? psk=06b4be19da289f475aa46a33cb793029d4ab3db7a23ee92382eb0106c72ac7bb
?? ?priority=2
? }
?
I loaded the driver with nohwcrypt=1 module parameter and also without it. Even also tried for AR5416+AR2133.The hostapd give the same error, as follow, would you guide me either I am missing something or do I need some special PATCH or Chipset for 802.11w.
