Hi All,
 
   I am running latest hostapd in H2E only mode using following hostapd.conf.
  ….
  sae_pwe=1
  sae_groups=19
  sae_password=example secret
  
   Latest Wpa_supplicant is not connecting to H2E only mode AP, if I use wpa_supplicant.conf with only “sae_password=example secret”
 
  Wpa_supplicant throws:
  1615416250.587683: wlp5s0: Selecting BSS from priority group 0
  1615416250.587690: wlp5s0: 0: f8:a2:d6:bc:d0:51 ssid='raghu-test-h2e' wpa_ie_len=0 rsn_ie_len=20 caps=0x411 level=-39 freq=2437
  1615416250.587700: wlp5s0:    selected based on RSN IE
  1615416250.587704: wlp5s0:    SAE H2E disabled
1615416250.587708: wlp5s0:    skip - rate sets do not match 
   
 If I use password identifier then it works. Following config works.
Hostapd.conf:
sae_password=example secret|id=pw identifier
 
wpa_supplicant.conf:
sae_password="example secret"
sae_password_id="pw identifier"
 
Is there a way to test wpa_supplicant and hostapd without using pwd identifier?
