NWAM Debug messages.
After trying to connect to the WLAN, and entering the correct key several times
(another bug), nwamd finally connected to the WLAN - at least dladm show-wifi
said so.
But, because dhcpagent had been running on the iwh0 interface since it was
first brought up - but not connected to any WLAN - it was on it's 24th request.
This can take a long time to actually succeed then due to the ever increasing
time out.
(I feel this is in it-self a possible bug since it DHCP really shouldn't be
started on it until the WLAN actually connects).
BUT, it did actually get an IP address, but then nwam seemed to bring it down
and decide that it hadn't succeeded, and then nwam seemed to continue to try
connect to the WLAN, but at this point the iwh0 interface had been unplumbed,
and as such it would never successfully connect.
I'm attaching a log of this activity, the main relevant part to this starts
around the entry:
