安装
安装net-wireless/wpa_supplicant包
emerge --ask wpa_supplicant
启动网络
- 为wpa_supplicant添加无线接口
在wpa_supplicant.conf文件中添加
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=wheel
- 初始化wpa_supplicant环境
wpa_supplicant -d -Dnl80211 -iwlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
参数：
-B - Fork into background.
-c filename - Path to configuration file.
-d increase debugging verbosity
-i interface - Interface to listen on.
-D driver - Optionally specify the driver to be used.
For a list of supported drivers see the output of wpa_supplicant -h.
nl80211is the current standard, but not all wireless chip's modules support it.wextis currently deprecated, but still widely supported.
- 查看wpa_supplicant进程
ps -aux | grep wpa
root 1841 0.0 0.2 6168 2920 ? Ss 09:10 0:00 wpa_supplicant -B -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -iwlan0
root 2122 0.0 0.0 2780 728 pts/0 S+ 09:25 0:00 grep --colour=auto wpa
配置
- Set for Gentoo net.* scrips，tell the network script to use wpa_supplicant.
File/etc/conf.d/net
modules_wlan0="wpa_supplicant"
# 因为wpa_supplicant还不能很好的自动侦测驱动，所以需要我们为其指定正在使用的驱动。
wpa_supplicant_wlan0="-Dnl80211"
config_wlan0="dhcp"
- Set for dhcpcd,no special setup is needed.Do not add wpa_supplicant to any runlevel. It will be controlled by dhcpcd.
配置文件/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
# Allow users in the 'wheel' group to control wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=wheel
# Make this file writable for wpa_gui
update_config=1
#自动扫描AP（也就是可以上的无线网络热点）
ap_scan=1
# 简单的情形：WPA-PSk密码验证方式，PSK是ASCII密码短语，所有合法的加密方式都允许连接
network={
ssid="simple"
psk="very secret passphrase"
# 优先级越高，就能越早匹配到。
priority=5
}
To allow unprivileged users to control the connection using wpa_gui / wpa_cli, make sure
GROUP=wheelandupdate_config=1.
也可以使用wpa_passphrase命令添加无线热点
wpa_passphrase [ ssid ] [ passphrase ] >> /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
上面这条命令可以自动生成一段配置，我们将它输出添加到 wpa_supplicant 的默认配置文件里面。
wpa_cli
运行wpa_cli时可能会出现如下的错误：
Could not connect to wpa_supplicant - re-trying
这个错误可能是因为你的wpa_supplicant进程没有启动起来造成的。
wpa_cli
> scan
> scan_results
> add_network
0
> set_network 0 ssid "MYSSID"
> set_network 0 psk "passphrase"
> enable_network 0
> save_config
OK
dhcpcd interface
设置、获取IP
自动获取
dhcpcd wlan0
手动设置
ifconfig wlan0 192.168.1.11 broadcast 192.168.1.255 netmask 255.255.255.0
告知Gentoo RC系统网卡名字
cd /etc/init.d
ln -s net.lo net.wlan0
#start and stop it using the following commands:
/etc/init.d/net.eth0 start
/etc/init.d/net.eth0 stop
#开机启动
rc-update add wlan0 default
