network={
ssid="Fairfax"
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
eap=TLS
identity="[email protected]"
# or,
# identity="<your-id>@byod.fcps.edu"
ca_cert="/etc/wpa_supplicant/wifi_certs/FCPS.pem"
client_cert="/etc/wpa_supplicant/wifi_certs/user.crt"
private_key="/etc/wpa_supplicant/wifi_certs/user.key"
private_key_passwd="<guest password or your own password>"

b. user.crt == openssl pkcs12 -in certificate.p12 -out user.crt

c. user.key == certificate.p12
