wpa_passphrase
utility for generating a 256-bit pre-shared WPA key from an ASCII passphrase

wpa_passphrase ssid⟩ [passphrase]

The wpa_passphrase utility is a small program for generating a 256-bit pre-shared WPA key from an ASCII passphrase and a given SSID. The output is formatted for inclusion in wpa_supplicant.conf(5).

If wpa_passphrase is called with only an SSID as argument it will prompt for a passphrase on standard input.

wpa_supplicant.conf(5), wpa_supplicant(8)

The wpa_passphrase utility first appeared in FreeBSD 6.3.

The wpa_passphrase utility was written by Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>.
