tibibs Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 Hi, I am using my armbian board to create an access point. I have noticed that WPS is always active by default and users are, especially on WIndows, prompted to enter the WPS PIn in order to connect to the WIFI instead of the pass phrase. I have checked wpa_supplicant.conf which looks like is controlled by dbus <!DOCTYPE busconfig PUBLIC "-//freedesktop//DTD D-BUS Bus Configuration 1.0//EN" "http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/dbus/1.0/busconfig.dtd"> <busconfig> <policy user="root"> <allow own="fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1"/> <allow send_destination="fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1"/> <allow send_interface="fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1"/> <allow receive_sender="fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1" receive_type="signal"/> </policy> <policy group="netdev"> <allow send_destination="fi.epitest.hostap.WPASupplicant"/> <allow send_interface="fi.epitest.hostap.WPASupplicant"/> <allow send_destination="fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1"/> <allow send_interface="fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1"/> <allow receive_sender="fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1" receive_type="signal"/> </policy> <policy context="default"> <deny own="fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1"/> <deny send_destination="fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1"/> <deny receive_sender="fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1" receive_type="signal"/> </policy> </busconfig> HOw can I disable this WPS option to kick in? thank you, Tibibs 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dandaman46 Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Are you using nmcli to create your access point? If not, what is your process for setting up the access point? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tibibs Posted December 27, 2023 Author Share Posted December 27, 2023 (edited) Sorry, I missed your answer. I am using Network Manager to manage my connections and activate the Access Point when needed. But I couldn't find any option for enabling / disabling WPS From what I have found, I should adjust the variable WPS-PBC-ACTIVE of wpa_supplicant, but no clue where to set its value.
