Dot1X Kali Linux

I need to remember this for next time I’m faced with a dot1x authentication on wired connection.

Add the following to /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=0
network={
key_mgmt=IEEE8021X
identity="your_username"
password="your_super_secret_password"
eap=PEAP
eapol_flags=0
phase1="peaplabel=1"
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
}

And then run
[bash]
wpa_supplicant -i eth2 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -D wired
[/bash]

Wait for it to generate a sucess message, and run dhcpclient or set a static ip .. 🙂
