[brindha__kumar]

Hi
I am working with esp32s2 module as Access point.
I want to use 4way-handshake in the AP mode. For STA mode I can configure WPA3 authentication and there is possibilities for enabling 4way-handshaking. I need to configure the same in AP mode. How to configure 4way-handshaking in AP mode. Please help me to set up the 4way-handshaking in AP mode.

hi, first, 4 way-handshaking does not only exist WPA3, but it is also present in WPA and WPA2.
And if you are asking how to set the softAP in WPA3 mode, please enable the followings in menuconfig:

Hi Team!
I tried to Configure WPA3 in Access Point Mode as well as Station Mode using esp-idf v5.0.2.
Two types of tests I did, one is
(1) In Station Mode, I can able to configure WPA3 and successfully established a connection over WPA3 configurations and also options are there in menuconfig to enable WPA3 in Station Mode.

another one is, Access point
(2) And I enabled WPA3 in Access Point mode through menu config.(It was shown in the attached image)
But I can't able to establish a connection over WPA3.

My doubt is
(1) How can I Establish a WPA3 connection in Access point Mode in esp32s2?
(2) How to enable 4 way hand shaking in ESP32S2 AP Mode?
(3) "Enable SAE-PK" and "Enable WPA3 Personal (SAE) SoftAP" is not shown in my menuconfig. In which version of ESP-IDF, It will be there?

Someone Please help me. It's very needful for me.
Thanks in advance.

hi，kumar, sorry for late reply, the WPA3 soft AP mode is a new feature on 5.1, you can try the version later than 5.1

[brindha__kumar]

Hi
I used "esp-idf v5.1-rc2" download link https://dl.espressif.com/github_assets/ ... .1-rc2.zip
and setup tools version "esp-idf-tools-setup-offline-5.0.2" download link https://dl.espressif.com/dl/esp-idf/
I didn't get AP configurations like yours. Please refer the previous attachment that was running idf v5.1-rc2 but I didn't get SAE configurations.
Please help me to get SoftAP WPA3 configurations.

hi, Kumar, as the zip might be upload in earlier, so I suggested that you can use git command " git pull " and " git submodule update --init --recursive " to update to the latest version.

Hi
When I run this command "git pull", It was throwing an error like "fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf.git/': SSL certificate problem: self signed certificate in certificate chain"
Kindly help me to resolve this issue.

That very much sounds like an issue on your network; Github does not use self-signed certificates.
