WifiConfig_SetSecurityType Function

  • Article

Header: #include <applibs/wificonfig.h>

Sets the security type for a Wi-Fi network.

The setting is effective immediately but won't persist across device reboots unless the WifiConfig_PersistConfig function is called after this function.

static int WifiConfig_SetSecurityType(int networkId, WifiConfig_Security_Type securityType);

Parameters

  • networkId The ID of the network to configure. WifiConfig_AddNetwork returns the network ID.

  • securityType The security type for the specified network.

Errors

Returns -1 if an error is encountered and sets errno to the error value.

  • EACCES: the application manifest doesn't include the WifiConfig or EnterpriseWifiConfig capability. The EnterpriseWifiConfig capability is required if securityType is WifiConfig_Security_Wpa2_EAP_TLS.

  • EINVAL: the securityType parameter is invalid.

  • EAGAIN: the Wi-Fi device isn't ready.

  • ENETDOWN: the Wi-Fi network interface is unavailable.

  • EINVAL: the networkId parameter is invalid.

  • ENODEV: the networkId parameter doesn't match any of the IDs of the stored networks.

Any other errno may also be specified; such errors aren't deterministic and the same behavior might not be retained through system updates.

Return value

Returns 0 for success, or -1 for failure, in which case errno is set to the error value.

Application manifest requirements

The application manifest must include the WifiConfig or, for EAP-TLS networks, the EnterpriseWifiConfig capability.
