Connect to Network without assign IP address

[Carlos Patricio Amigo Haering]

Thank for the reply Arend.

What do you mean with 'sensible configuration' ? Is not enough with the 
"set_network ssid" and "set_network psk" ? What extra paramter I should 
set? Also I've missed a "connect" command in wpa_cli. Doesn't exist?

I found documentation about supplicant when you configure the networks 
in wpa_supplicant.conf but the links are very old. This is the best 
method? Sorry about the plenty questions but I'm just starting to use 
wpa_supplicant.


Regards.
