Setting Up a Wireless Internet Connection
Objectives
Here we will show you how to hook up your LEAF Box to an uplink access point using Wifi, e.g. IEEE-802.11 .
Prerequisites
The software used to hook up to an uplink access point is called wpasupplicant and is packaged in the wpasupp.lrp LEAF package. You should be familiar on how to obtain LEAF packages from either a tarball in the LEAF file area or to download it using your internet connection. You should also be familiar on how to set up LEAF to automatically install packages.
Dependencies
As of LEAF 7.x wpasupp.lrp depends on the following packages:
- libssl.lrp
- libcrpto.lrp
Configuration
The wpasupplicant software is configured using a text file /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf. It is also controlled by the file /etc/default/wpasupp where a few start parameters are defined.
