以RHEL6.4为实验对象:
1、安装 wpa_supplicant.
yum install wpa_supplicant
2、编辑 wpa_supplicant 配置文件
vim /etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant
以下格式:
# Use the flag "-i" before each of your interfaces, like so:
# INTERFACES="-ieth1 -iwlan0"
INTERFACES="-iwlan0"
# Use the flag "-D" before each driver, like so:
# DRIVERS="-Dwext"
DRIVERS="-Dwext"
# Other arguments
# -u Enable the D-Bus interface (required for use with NetworkManager)
# -f Log to /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log
# -P Write pid file to /var/run/wpa_supplicant.pid
# required to return proper codes by init scripts (e.g. double "start" action)
# -B to daemonize that has to be used together with -P is already in wpa_supplicant.init.d
OTHER_ARGS="-u -f /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log -P /var/run/wpa_supplicant.pid"
3、向 wpa_supplicant.conf 文件写入将要连接 WIFI 的 SSID 和 密码
wpa_passphrase SSID PASSWORD >> /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
4、设置 wpa_supplicant 服务开机启动
chkconfig --level 2345 wpa_supplicant on
5、检查 ifcfg-wlan0 无线网卡脚本是否设置开机启动
DEVICE=wlan0
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
5.1、如果想马上连接到 WIFI ,可以重启网络
/etc/init.d/network restart
5.2、可以使用iwconfig 命令查看 WIFI 是否连接成功
iwconfig wlan0
6、由于网卡开启时还没有连接到正确的wifi,以上配置文件的所以在每次 WIFI 连接后都需要手动使用dhclient 命令获取dhcp信息 (也可以在 ifcfg-wlan0 中设置固定IP地址)
dhclient wlan0
6.1、查看是否获取IP地址等信息
ifconfig wlan0 至此,就可以正常连接使用 WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK 加密的 WIFI 了。
