wpa_gui is a QT graphical frontend program for interacting with wpa_supplicant. It is used to query current status, change configuration and request interactive user input.

wpa_gui supports (almost) all of the interactive status and configuration features of the command line client, wpa_cli. Refer to the wpa_cli manpage for a comprehensive list of the interactive mode features.

COMMAND ARGUMENTS¶

Change the path where control sockets should be found.

-i ifname

Specify the interface that is being configured. By default, choose the first interface found with a control socket in the socket path.

-m seconds
