5 <p>This is how I connected to the Penn. State wireless network (
2.0) with GNU/Linux and wpa_supplicant. Here is the network information from PSU:
</p>
9 <b>Security:
</b> WPA2-Enterprise
<br>
10 <b>Encryption:
</b> AES
<br>
11 <b>Authentication Type:
</b> EAP-TTLS
<br>
12 <b>Authentication Protocol:
</b> PAP
<br>
13 <b>Certificate Authority:
</b> Thawte Premium Server CA
16 <p>The following configuration block needs to be entered into /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf:
</p>
18 <pre class=
"brush: bash">
21 identity=
"your_access_id_here"
22 password=
"your_password_here"
26 ca_cert=
"/etc/ssl/certs/Thawte_Premium_Server_CA.pem"
30 Check that your wireless card is up with `ifconfig` and that you are in range of an access point with `iwlist scan`. You can now connect using wpa_supplicant and dhcpcd. Change the following line to use your wireless driver and interface.
32 <pre class=
"brush: bash">
33 wpa_supplicant -B -D wext -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
