Glossary
- A P2P Group is a Wi-Fi P2P network that may include two types of devices:
-
- P2P Device –Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™ device that is compliant with the Wi-Fi P2P specification
- Legacy device –Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™ device that is not compliant with the Wi-Fi P2P specification
- P2P devices must be capable of two different roles in a P2P Group:
-
- P2P Group Owner : An “AP-like” capability that controls a Wi-Fi P2P Group and enables P2P Device connectivity
- P2P Client : A Wi-Fi P2P-compliant device that may connect to a P2P Group Owner
-
- Legacy devices may only function as client in a P2P Group.

P2P usecases
The WPA Supplicant has a configuration file located under /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf.
This configuration file can be used to allow automatic connection once the WPA Supplicant process is running.
In order to connect a WPA2 secured network using the configuration file, we need the following steps:
Please note that from R8.2 release, we use two interfaces: one for STA ('wlan0') and one for WiFi Direct ('p2p0'). From R8.2 release, the configuration file will be: /etc/p2p_supplicant.conf
Detailed below are the steps required for both versions.
Steps prior to R8.2 release
1. Back up the original configuration file:
mv /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf.bak
2. Create a new wpa_supplicant.conf with the following content:
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant update_config=1
optional for debug only, can be useful for monitoring, forces the wpa_supplicant to use only channel 1 rather than 1, 6 and 11.
for that add the following in the wpa_supplicant.conf file
p2p_listen_reg_class=81 p2p_listen_channel=1 p2p_oper_reg_class=81 p2p_oper_channel=1
In order to support 802.11n for GO, please also add the following line:
p2p_go_ht40=1
The editing above can be done by vi editor as follows:
-
vi /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
- The editor will be opened. Type the character 'i' to switch to editing mode.
- Copy and paste the above content into the editor.
- Hit 'esc' button to stop editing.
- Type the sequence ":wq" in order to save and quit.
3. Run the WPA Supplicant:
wpa_supplicant -d -Dnl80211 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -iwlan0 -B
4. config the WLAN IP address
ifconfig wlan0 192.168.3.3 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
Make sure that the WLAN got the proper IP address
root@am37x-evm:~# ifconfig

RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B)
Comment: Make sure that all the EVMS that participate in the WiFi Direct network has unique MAC Address, and that all has IP Address that is in the same Subnet.
5. Run WPA Supplicant CLI to get to the WiFi direct commands
wpa_cli
Steps from R8.2 release onwards
1. Create the p2p0 interface using the below command:
iw phy `ls /sys/class/ieee80211/` interface add p2p0 type managed
2. Ensure that /etc/p2p_supplicant.conf file exists with the below values(default)
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant update_config=0 device_name=TI-SITARA-P2P device_type=1-0050F204-1 config_methods=virtual_push_button physical_display keypad p2p_go_intent=0 country=US driver_param=use_multi_chan_concurrent=1 use_p2p_group_interface=1 p2p_go_max_inactivity=60 p2p_go_ht40=1 p2p_multi_chan=1 disassoc_low_ack=1 concurrent_sched_scan=1
3. Run the wpa_supplicant:
wpa_supplicant -iwlan0 -Dnl80211 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -N -ip2p0 -Dnl80211 -c/etc/p2p_supplicant.conf &
4. Configure the WLAN IP address
ifconfig p2p0 192.168.3.3 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
Make sure that the p2p0 interface got the proper IP address

In order to configure the IP address to the Group Owner (GO) and the Clients there are 2 methods:
- Static IP
- Enable the DHCP server at the GO EVM, which will provide IP address to the clients using DHCP session
DHCP method
at the Group Owver EVM Run the following:
- Configure the udhcpd configuration file
- Run the dhcp server
- Define the iptables to enable the NAT (Network Address Translation)
Configuring udhcpd.confFirst, we will back up the existing udhcpd.conf file by invoking:
mv /etc/udhcpd.conf /etc/udhcpd.conf.bak
Create a new udhcpd.conf with the following content:
# Sample udhcpd configuration file (/etc/udhcpd.conf) # The start and end of the IP lease block start 192.168.0.20 #default: 192.168.0.20 end 192.168.0.254 #default: 192.168.0.254 # The interface that udhcpd will use interface wlan0 #default: eth0 #Examles opt dns 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 # public google dns servers option subnet 255.255.255.0 opt router 192.168.0.1 option lease 864000 # 10 days of
The editing above can be done by vi editor as follows:
-
vi /etc/udhcpd.conf
- The editor will be opened. Type the character 'i' to switch to editing mode.
- Copy and paste the above content into the editor.
- Hit 'esc' button to stop editing.
- Type the sequence ":wq" in order to save and quit.
Run the following
- udhcpd to operate the dhcp server
- iptables to enable the NAT (Network Address Translation)
The commands to do the above, are:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward ifconfig wlan0 192.168.0.1 udhcpd /etc/udhcpd.conf iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
The IP address assigned for wlan0 interface (ifconfig wlan0 192.168.0.1) should match the "router" field IP in the udhcpd.conf file we edited above.
At Client side
to get IP address using DHCP procedure run the following:
udhcpc -i wlan0

Detailed information
p2p_find
Start P2P device discovery. Optional parameter can be used to specify the duration for the discovery in seconds (e.g., "P2P_FIND 5"). If the duration is not specified, discovery will be started for indefinite time, i.e., until it is terminated by P2P_STOP_FIND or P2P_CONNECT (to start group formation with a discovered peer). The default search type is to first run a full scan of all channels and then continue scanning only social channels (1, 6, 11). This behavior can be changed by specifying a different search type: social (e.g., "P2P_FIND 5 type=social") will skip the initial full scan and only search social channels; progressive (e.g., "P2P_FINDtype=progressive") starts with a full scan and then searches progressively through all channels one channel at the time with the social channel scans. Progressive device discovery can be used to find new groups (and groups that were not found during the initial scan,e.g., due to the GO being asleep) over time without adding considerable extra delay for every Search state round.
p2p_connect
Start P2P group formation with a discovered P2P peer. This includes group owner negotiation, group interface setup, provisioning, and establishing data connection.P2P_CONNECT <peer device address> <pbc|pin|PIN#> [label|display|keypad] [persistent] [join|auth] [go_intent=<0..15>] [freq=<in MHz>]Start P2P group formation with a discovered P2P peer. This includes optional group owner negotiation, group interface setup, provisioning, and establishing data connection.The <pbc|pin|PIN#> parameter specifies the WPS provisioning method. "pbc" string starts pushbutton method, "pin" string start PIN method using an automatically generated PIN (which will be returned as the command return code), PIN# means that a pre-selected PIN can be used (e.g., 12345670). [label|display|keypad] is used with PIN method to specify which PIN is used (label=PIN from local label, display=dynamically generated random PIN from local display, keypad=PIN entered from peer device label or display).
"persistent" parameter can be used to request a persistent group to be formed.
"join" indicates that this is a command to join an existing group as a client. It skips the GO Negotiation part.
"auth" indicates that the WPS parameters are authorized for the peer device without actually starting GO Negotiation (i.e., the peer is expected to initiate GO Negotiation). This is mainly for testing purposes.The optional "go_intent" parameter can be used to override the default GO Intent value.
p2p_listen
Start Listen-only state. Optional parameter can be used to specify the duration for the Listen operation in seconds. This command may not be of that much use during normal operations and is mainly designed for testing. It can also be used to keep the device discoverable without having to maintain a group.
p2p_group_add
Set up a P2P group owner manually (i.e., without group owner negotiation with a specific peer). This is also known as autonomous GO. P2P_GROUP_ADD [persistent] [freq=<in MHz>]
Optional persistent=<network id> can be used to specify restart of a persistent group.Optional freq is channel frequency in MHz for the group.
p2p_group_remove
Terminate a P2P group. If a new virtual network interface was used for the group, it will also be removed. The network interface name of the group interface is used as a parameter for this command.
P2P_GROUP_REMOVE <ifname>
<ifname> is network interface name of the group interface or "*" to remove all.
p2p_peer
Fetch information about a discovered peer. Show information about known P2P peer(s).
P2P_PEER [addr] [FIRST] [NEXT-<P2P Device Address>]
This command takes in an argument specifying which peer to select: P2P Device Address of the peer, "FIRST" to indicate the first peer in the list, or "NEXT-<P2P Device Address>" to indicate the entry following the specified peer (to allow for iterating through the list).
p2p_invite
Invite a peer to join a group or to (re)start a persistent group.P2P_INVITE <cmd> [peer=addr]
<cmd> format is:<persistent=id> [peer=addr] to restart persistent group where id is a unique network identifier<group= > <peer=addr> [go_dev_addr=addr] to invite peer to join an active group
