Do we need to specify key_mgmt while configuring wifi?
Hello,
I was working with VintageNet to configure the wlan. We can configure the wifi network using VintageNetWiFi.quick_configure() or VintageNet.configure(). I’m able to configure using both.
I checked that when i use quick_configure(), key_mgmt is set to :wpa_psk.
When i use configure() i have set the key_mgmt if i don’t set it to :wpa_psk or any other key management, I observed it defaults to :none.
Now my requirement is to be able connect to any network WPA2, WPA3, or transitional WPA2/WPA3, without specifying the key_mgmt type.

My previous response isn’t right.
The way to do this is to list all of the key_mgmt types that are ok. The current VintageNetWiFi release doesn’t support that. I started a PR with support at Support creating WPA2/WPA3 configurations by fhunleth · Pull Request #217 · nerves-networking/vintage_net_wifi · GitHub.
Another issue is that I don’t think any of the officially supported Nerves hardware have WiFi modules that support WPA3. I just confirmed that we can’t test WPA3 on any of the Raspberry Pis. This blog post had good links on the work being done.
Do you have a WiFi module that supports WPA3? I’ve tested the PR with a WiFi module that supports WPA3, so the PR seems to work. Confirming that it works with whatever hardware you have would be nice to know if that’s possible.
