Description Antonio Cardace 2021-01-14 17:04:05 UTC

Description of problem:

In order to fully support WPA3-Enterprise wpa_supplicant needs to compile in the WPA-EAP-SUITE-B-192 key_mgmt option, this is simply achieved by supplying a compile-time option (as in https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/wpa_supplicant/pull-request/8).

NetworkManager needs this in RHEL 8.4 to connect to WPA3-Enterprise networks.

sorry. Wrong bug :(

Comment 2 Davide Caratti 2021-01-15 21:15:49 UTC

@Ken, I'm setting ITM12 for this, because I see it blocks a bug that's planned for ITM11. Please let me know if that fits your schedule.

Installed RHEL-8.4.0-20210203.n.1 (wpa_supplicant-2.9-4.el8) on a test system. Set up a connection through nmcli using "802-11-wireless-security.key-mgmt wpa-eap-suite-b-192" to properly set the key management type. Was able to connect to the access point after that and ran some traffic over the connection with iperf3 for a half hour without issue. Marking as verified.
