WpaSupplicant is a popular Linux utility that manages WPA/WPA2 encryption for wireless networks. The dump_monitor function of WpaSupplicant is used to capture network events in real-time, such as connection attempts, auth failures, or disassociations. This function is particularly useful for network troubleshooting or debugging, as it provides detailed information about the status of network connections.
Code Examples:
Here is an example code snippet that uses the WpaSupplicant dump_monitor function to capture network events in real-time:
In this example, we first initialize a WpaSupplicant object with the name of the wireless interface we want to use ('wlan0' in this case). We then define a callback function (process_event) which will be called every time there is a network event. Finally, we call the dump_monitor function, passing in our callback function.
When the dump_monitor function is called, it will block until an event is received. When an event is received, it will be passed to our callback function, which in this case simply prints the event to the console.
Package Library:
The WpaSupplicant utility is typically installed as part of the WPA Supplicant package on Linux systems. The Python code used to interact with WpaSupplicant is provided by the wpasupplicant package, which is available on PyPI (the Python Package Index). To install wpasupplicant, you can use pip:
pip install wpasupplicant
