But, I&rsquo;ve now seen the following issue reported more than once, so hopefully this post will save the other two mesh users some grief.</p> <p>If you are running an encrypted mesh on wpa_supplicant or (ye gods) authsae, take note:</p> <ul> <li> <p>Encrypted mesh on kernel 4.8 will not interoperate with kernel &lt; 4.8</p> </li> <li> <p>wpa_supplicant 2.6 will not interoperate with 2.5</p> </li> <li> <p>authsae as of commit 706a2cf will not interoperate with that of commit 813ec0e [1]</p> </li> <li> <p>wpa_supplicant 2.6 and authsae commit 706a2cf require additional configuration to work with kernel &lt; 4.8 (see below).</p> </li> </ul>
