This happens before even peering, so it sounds like this is something other than the encryption change. Just to be sure, the password and SAE group configurations are the same across all nodes? To be clear, the sequence goes like this: SAE authentication (derives PMK from password) ---> AMPE peering (derives MTK from PMK, MGTK generated and exchanged) ---> HWMP route establishment (uses keys from previous step) The changes referred to in my blog post happened at steps 2 and 3, while looks like your failure happened at step 1. > So maybe your advice needs some extra good bits for specific situations. > > Kind regards, > jer -- Bob Copeland %% http://bobcopeland.com/ _______________________________________________ Hostap mailing list Hostap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/hostap
