I'm trying to get the iwi driver working on my Thinkpad T43 with WPA2.
This is with Solaris Express Community edition snv_81
When I run
dladm connect-wifi -e myessid -k home_wifi -s wpa
I establish a connection with the AP.
#dladm show-secobj
OBJECT CLASS
test wpa
home_wifi wpa
nwam--0.1a.70.d6.eb.c4 wpa
If I use the wrong key it doesn't work.
I also see EAPOL Key messages going back and forth between the laptop
and the AP if I ran tshark on another machine.
# dladm show-wifi
LINK STATUS ESSID SEC STRENGTH MODE SPEED
iwi0 connected myessid wpa excellent g --
#
I then configure the interface with
ifconfig iwi0 192.168.1.4 netmask 255.255.255.0
# ifconfig iwi0
iwi0: flags=201000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,CoS> mtu 1500 index 2
inet 192.168.1.4 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255
ether 0:13:ce:80:e2:35
however I can't ping the ap
When I try I see the packet count increasing on the route with a netstat -r
netstat -r -n
Routing Table: IPv4
Destination Gateway Flags Ref Use Interface
-------------------- -------------------- ----- ----- ---------- ---------
default 192.168.1.1 UG 1 8

127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 1 8210 lo0
but the outgoing packet count on the interface doesn't change and I don't
see any traffic from the laptop with the sniffer on the wifi link.
^C# netstat -i -n

iwi0 1500 192.168.1.0 192.168.1.4 484 0 2 0 0 0
Any ideas?
The AP is configured to use aes+tkip.
