Description

The NMSetting8021x object is a NMSetting subclass that describes properties necessary for connection to 802.1x-authenticated networks, such as WPA and WPA2 Enterprise WiFi networks and wired 802.1x networks. 802.1x connections typically use certificates and/or EAP authentication methods to securely verify, identify, and authenticate the client to the network itself, instead of simply relying on a widely shared static key.

It's a good idea to read up on wpa_supplicant configuration before using this setting extensively, since most of the options here correspond closely with the relevant wpa_supplicant configuration options.

Furthermore, to get a good idea of 802.1x, EAP, TLS, TTLS, etc and their applications to WiFi and wired networks, you'll want to get copies of the following books.

Returns the CA certificate blob if the CA certificate is stored using the NM_SETTING_802_1X_CK_SCHEME_BLOB scheme. Not all EAP methods use a CA certificate (LEAP for example), and those that can take advantage of the CA certificate allow it to be unset. Note that lack of a CA certificate reduces security by allowing man-in-the-middle attacks, because the identity of the network cannot be confirmed by the client.

setting :

the NMSetting8021x

Returns :

the CA certificate data

nm_setting_802_1x_get_ca_cert_path ()

Returns the CA certificate path if the CA certificate is stored using the NM_SETTING_802_1X_CK_SCHEME_PATH scheme. Not all EAP methods use a CA certificate (LEAP for example), and those that can take advantage of the CA certificate allow it to be unset. Note that lack of a CA certificate reduces security by allowing man-in-the-middle attacks, because the identity of the network cannot be confirmed by the client.

Returns the "phase 2" CA certificate blob if the CA certificate is stored using the NM_SETTING_802_1X_CK_SCHEME_BLOB scheme. Not all EAP methods use a CA certificate (LEAP for example), and those that can take advantage of the CA certificate allow it to be unset. Note that lack of a CA certificate reduces security by allowing man-in-the-middle attacks, because the identity of the network cannot be confirmed by the client.

Property Details

The "anonymous-identity" property

  "anonymous-identity"       gchar*                : Read / Write

Anonymous identity string for EAP authentication methods. Used as the unencrypted identity with EAP types that support different tunneled identity like EAP-TTLS.

Default value: NULL


The "ca-cert" property

  "ca-cert"                  GArray_guchar_*       : Read / Write

Contains the CA certificate if used by the EAP method specified in the "eap" property. Setting this property directly is discouraged; use the nm_setting_802_1x_set_ca_cert() function instead.


The "ca-path" property

  "ca-path"                  gchar*                : Read / Write

UTF-8 encoded path to a directory containing PEM or DER formatted certificates to be added to the verification chain in addition to the certificate specified in the "ca-cert" property.

Default value: NULL


The "client-cert" property

  "client-cert"              GArray_guchar_*       : Read / Write

Contains the client certificate if used by the EAP method specified in the "eap" property. Setting this property directly is discouraged; use the nm_setting_802_1x_set_client_cert() function instead.


The "eap" property

  "eap"                      GSList_gchararray_*   : Read / Write

The allowed EAP method to be used when authenticating to the network with 802.1x. Valid methods are: "leap", "md5", "tls", "peap", "ttls", and "fast". Each method requires different configuration using the properties of this object; refer to wpa_supplicant documentation for the allowed combinations.


The "identity" property

  "identity"                 gchar*                : Read / Write

Identity string for EAP authentication methods. Often the user's user or login name.

Default value: NULL


The "password" property

  "password"                 gchar*                : Read / Write

Password used for EAP authentication methods.

Default value: NULL


The "password-flags" property

The "phase1-fast-provisioning" property

  "phase1-fast-provisioning" gchar*                : Read / Write

Enables or disables in-line provisioning of EAP-FAST credentials when FAST is specified as the EAP method in the "eap" property. Recognized values are "0" (disabled), "1" (allow unauthenticated provisioning), "2" (allow authenticated provisioning), and "3" (allow both authenticated and unauthenticated provisioning). See the wpa_supplicant documentation for more details.

Default value: NULL


The "phase1-peaplabel" property

  "phase1-peaplabel"         gchar*                : Read / Write

Forces use of the new PEAP label during key derivation. Some RADIUS servers may require forcing the new PEAP label to interoperate with PEAPv1. Set to "1" to force use of the new PEAP label. See the wpa_supplicant documentation for more details.

Default value: NULL


The "phase1-peapver" property

  "phase1-peapver"           gchar*                : Read / Write

Forces which PEAP version is used when PEAP is set as the EAP method in the "eap" property. When unset, the version reported by the server will be used. Sometimes when using older RADIUS servers, it is necessary to force the client to use a particular PEAP version. To do so, this property may be set to "0" or "1" to force that specific PEAP version.

Default value: NULL


The "phase2-auth" property

  "phase2-auth"              gchar*                : Read / Write

Specifies the allowed "phase 2" inner non-EAP authentication methods when an EAP method that uses an inner TLS tunnel is specified in the "eap" property. Recognized non-EAP phase2 methods are "pap", "chap", "mschap", "mschapv2", "gtc", "otp", "md5", and "tls". Each 'phase 2' inner method requires specific parameters for successful authentication; see the wpa_supplicant documentation for more details.

Default value: NULL


The "phase2-autheap" property

  "phase2-autheap"           gchar*                : Read / Write

Specifies the allowed "phase 2" inner EAP-based authentication methods when an EAP method that uses an inner TLS tunnel is specified in the "eap" property. Recognized EAP-based phase2 methods are "md5", "mschapv2", "otp", "gtc", and "tls". Each 'phase 2' inner method requires specific parameters for successful authentication; see the wpa_supplicant documentation for more details.

Default value: NULL


The "phase2-ca-cert" property

  "phase2-ca-cert"           GArray_guchar_*       : Read / Write

Contains the CA certificate if used by the EAP method specified in the "phase2-auth" or "phase2-autheap" properties. Setting this property directly is discouraged; use the nm_setting_802_1x_set_phase2_ca_cert() function instead.


The "phase2-ca-path" property

  "phase2-ca-path"           gchar*                : Read / Write

UTF-8 encoded path to a directory containing PEM or DER formatted certificates to be added to the verification chain in addition to the certificate specified in the "phase2-ca-cert" property.

Default value: NULL


The "phase2-client-cert" property

  "phase2-client-cert"       GArray_guchar_*       : Read / Write

Contains the client certificate if used by the EAP method specified in the "phase2-auth" or "phase2-autheap" properties. Setting this property directly is discouraged; use the nm_setting_802_1x_set_phase2_client_cert() function instead.


The "phase2-private-key" property

  "phase2-private-key"       GArray_guchar_*       : Read / Write

Private key data used by "phase 2" inner authentication methods.

Contains the "phase 2" inner private key if the "auth" or "phase2-autheap" property is set to 'tls'. Setting this property directly is discouraged; use the nm_setting_802_1x_set_phase2_private_key() function instead.


The "phase2-private-key-password" property

  "phase2-private-key-password" gchar*                : Read / Write

The password used to decrypt the private key specified in "phase2-private-key" when the private key either uses the path scheme, or if the private key is a PKCS12 format key. Setting this property directly is not generally necessary except when returning secrets to NetworkManager; it is generally set automatically when setting the private key by the nm_setting_802_1x_set_phase2_private_key() function.

Default value: NULL


The "phase2-private-key-password-flags" property

  "phase2-private-key-password-flags" guint                 : Read / Write

Flags indicating how to handle "phase2-private-key-password":.

Allowed values: <= 7

Default value: 0


The "private-key" property

  "private-key"              GArray_guchar_*       : Read / Write

Contains the private key if the "eap" property is set to 'tls'. Setting this property directly is discouraged; use the nm_setting_802_1x_set_private_key() function instead.

WARNING: "private-key" is not a "secret" property, and thus unencrypted private key data using the BLOB scheme may be readable by unprivileged users. Private keys should always be encrypted with a private key password to prevent unauthorized access to unencrypted private key data.


The "private-key-password" property

  "private-key-password"     gchar*                : Read / Write

The password used to decrypt the private key specified in "private-key" when the private key either uses the path scheme, or if the private key is a PKCS12 format key. Setting this property directly is not generally necessary except when returning secrets to NetworkManager; it is generally set automatically when setting the private key by the nm_setting_802_1x_set_private_key() function.

Default value: NULL


The "private-key-password-flags" property

  "private-key-password-flags" guint                 : Read / Write
