[001] Installation

| $ kiss b eiwd |
| $ kiss b openresolv |
| |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
[002] Setup
________________________________________________________________________________
--[003] Create The Configuration File ------------------------------------------
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| |
| $ mkdir -p /etc/iwd |
| $ touch /etc/iwd/main.conf |
| |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
--[004] Add The Following Lines ------------------------------------------------
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| |
| main.conf |
| |
| [General] |
| EnableNetworkConfiguration=true |
| |
| [Network] |
| RoutePriorityOffset=200 |
| NameResolvingService=resolvconf |
| |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
To prevent iwd from scanning continuously while not connected, add the
following lines.
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| |
| [Scan] |
| DisablePeriodicScan=true |
| |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
To prevent iwd from destroying / recreating wireless interfaces at startup,
add the following line to [General].
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| |
| UseDefaultInterface=true |
| |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
--[005] Connecting To Networks -------------------------------------------------
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| |
| $ printf 'password\n' | iwd_passphrase ssid |
| |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| |
| The iwd_passhprase tool prints its help messages to stderr. Run the tool |
| once to get information and a second time with '> /var/lib/iwd/FILE' to |
| save it directly. |
| |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
The iwd daemon watches the /var/lib/iwd directory for changes to network
configs. When it detects creation of a config, it will at once become aware
of it. Other filesystem operations changes behavior as well.
