# How to set-up “corporate” Wi-Fi with NetworkManager (`nmcli`)

```bash
nmcli connection add \
type wifi \
connection.id "$name_you_want_to_use" \
wifi.ssid "$actual_ssid" \
wifi.mode infrastructure \
wifi-sec.key-mgmt wpa-eap \
802-1x.eap peap \
802-1x.identity "$your_login_name" \
802-1x.phase2-auth mschapv2

# Ask, so that `nmcli` can determine your password.
nmcli connection up "$name_you_want_to_use" --ask
```

## This will result in a configuration file, similar to this one:

```ini
[connection]
id="$name_you_want_to_use"
uuid=aaaaaaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaa-deadbeef1245
type=wifi
interface-name=wlo1

[wifi]
mode=infrastructure
ssid="$actual_ssid"

[wifi-security]
key-mgmt=wpa-eap

[802-1x]
ca-cert=/home/user_name/.local/share/nm/ca-cert.cer
domain-suffix-match=dnsx.topackt.net
eap=peap;
identity="$identity"
phase2-auth=mschapv2

[ipv4]
method=auto

[ipv6]
addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy
method=auto

[proxy]
```
