RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

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 :(

@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.

Since the problem described in this bug report should be
resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a
resolution of ERRATA.
