wpa_passphrase —
utility for generating a 256-bit pre-shared WPA key from an
ASCII passphrase
wpa_passphrase |
⟨ssid⟩ [passphrase] |
The wpa_passphrase utility is a small
program for generating a 256-bit pre-shared WPA key from an ASCII passphrase
and a given SSID. The output is formatted for inclusion in
wpa_supplicant.conf(5).
If wpa_passphrase is called with only an
SSID as argument it will prompt for a passphrase on standard input.
The wpa_passphrase utility first appeared
in FreeBSD 6.3.
The wpa_passphrase utility was written by
