Hi,
we're running OpenWRT as a KVM-guest. I've removed wpad-mini and installed wpad and hostapd-uitls . LUCI shows Enable WPS pushbutton, requires WPA(2)-PSK . Naturally x86/KVM hosts do not have a physical WPS-button.
Is there any way to have a WPS-button in LUCI?
Thanx for any hint!

Can you explain more about the button you wish to program, and how it's attached to the host?
Also, per the Community Guidelines , please refrain from signing your posts.

There is no physical button on X86/KVM hosts.
That's why I'm asking about a HTML-button in the LUCI web-interface for the WPS Push-Button function.
In theory it could be made possible using a USB to gpio Adapter like a Adafruit Trinket
https://oldwiki.archive.openwrt.org/doc/howto/usb.i2c-tiny-usb
Then using GPIO pin to read the state of the button and mapping it to the WPS function under OpenWRT

I was referring to something like @markbirss posted.
But, I'll move this thread to the For Developers section for you. There should be straightforward commands; but I don't personally know how to program them into the GUI.
hi,
i flashed a mr44 cisco meraki and i have to say that a wps activation button would be usefull in Luci because i dont have WPS physical button neither ...
is there a way to simulate it via a CLI command ?

to get you guys started....
install luci-app-commands
go to system > commands [tab] configure
Click add
Enter.... DESC:wpstrig COMMAND:/bin/wpstrig.sh [save-and-apply]
paste this into say... /bin/wpstrig.sh
#!/bin/sh
wps_catch_credentials() {
local iface ifaces ifc ifname ssid encryption key radio radios
local found=0
. /usr/share/libubox/jshn.sh
ubus -S -t 30 listen wps_credentials | while read creds; do
json_init
json_load "$creds"
json_select wps_credentials || continue
json_get_vars ifname ssid key encryption
local ifcname="$ifname"
json_init
json_load "$(ubus -S call network.wireless status)"
json_get_keys radios
for radio in $radios; do
json_select $radio
json_select interfaces
json_get_keys ifaces
for ifc in $ifaces; do
json_select $ifc
json_get_vars ifname
[ "$ifname" = "$ifcname" ] && {
ubus -S call uci set "{\"config\":\"wireless\", \"type\":\"wifi-iface\", \
\"match\": { \"device\": \"$radio\", \"encryption\": \"wps\" }, \
\"values\": { \"encryption\": \"$encryption\", \
\"ssid\": \"$ssid\", \
\"key\": \"$key\" } }"
ubus -S call uci commit '{"config": "wireless"}'
ubus -S call uci apply
}
json_select ..
done
json_select ..
json_select ..
done
done
}
#if [ "$ACTION" = "pressed" -a "$BUTTON" = "wps" ]; then
wps_done=0
ubusobjs="$( ubus -S list hostapd.* )"
for ubusobj in $ubusobjs; do
ubus -S call $ubusobj wps_start && wps_done=1
done
[ $wps_done = 0 ] || return 0
wps_done=0
ubusobjs="$( ubus -S list wpa_supplicant.* )"
for ubusobj in $ubusobjs; do
ifname="$(echo $ubusobj | cut -d'.' -f2 )"
multi_ap=""
#if [ -e "/var/run/wpa_supplicant-${ifname}.conf.is_multiap" ]; then
# ubus -S call $ubusobj wps_start '{ "multi_ap": true }' && wps_done=1
#else
ubus -S call $ubusobj wps_start && wps_done=1
#fi
done
[ $wps_done = 0 ] || wps_catch_credentials &
#fi
return 0
Make it executable
chmod +x /bin/wpstrig.sh
Navigate to system > custom commands [ click run ]
See how you go with that.... never use/used wps myself so no idea what you do on a device level.... but you should see something like this in logread;
Sat Jun 22 01:52:55 2019 daemon.notice hostapd: wlan0: WPS-PBC-ACTIVE
Sat Jun 22 01:54:55 2019 daemon.notice hostapd: wlan0: WPS-TIMEOUT

This post is now obsolete because there is already a WPS button in LuCI. It can be tested using snapshots.
