Interface state

Variants

Unknown

Not recognized state

Disconnected

Disconnected state.

This state indicates that client is not associated, but is likely to start looking for an access point. This state is entered when a connection is lost.

InterfaceDisabled

Interface disabled.

This state is entered if the network interface is disabled, e.g., due to rfkill. wpa_supplicant refuses any new operations that would use the radio until the interface has been enabled.

Inactive

Inactive state (wpa_supplicant disabled)

This state is entered if there are no enabled networks in the configuration. wpa_supplicant is not trying to associate with a new network and external interaction (e.g., ctrl_iface call to add or enable a network) is needed to start association.

Scanning

Scanning for a network.

This state is entered when wpa_supplicant starts scanning for a network.

Authenticating

Trying to authenticate with a BSS/SSID.

This state is entered when wpa_supplicant has found a suitable BSS to authenticate with and the driver is configured to try to authenticate with this BSS. This state is used only with drivers that use wpa_supplicant as the SME.

Associating

Trying to associate with a BSS/SSID.

This state is entered when wpa_supplicant has found a suitable BSS to associate with and the driver is configured to try to associate with this BSS in ap_scan=1 mode. When using ap_scan=2 mode, this state is entered when the driver is configured to try to associate with a network using the configured SSID and security policy.

Associated

Association completed.

This state is entered when the driver reports that association has been successfully completed with an AP. If IEEE 802.1X is used (with or without WPA/WPA2), wpa_supplicant remains in this state until the IEEE 802.1X/EAPOL authentication has been completed.

Handshake

WPA 4-Way Key Handshake in progress.

This state is entered when WPA/WPA2 4-Way Handshake is started. In case of WPA-PSK, this happens when receiving the first EAPOL-Key frame after association. In case of WPA-EAP, this state is entered when the IEEE 802.1X/EAPOL authentication has been completed.

GroupHandshake

This state is entered when 4-Way Key Handshake has been completed (i.e., when the supplicant sends out message 4/4) and when Group Key rekeying is started by the AP (i.e., when supplicant receives message 1/2).

Completed

Connected and authenticated.
