networking.wireless.userControlled

Allow users of the wpa_supplicant group to control wpa_supplicant through wpa_gui or wpa_cli. This is useful for laptop users that switch networks a lot and don't want to depend on a large package such as NetworkManager just to pick nearby access points.

When networks are configured declaratively, you cannot persist any settings via wpa_gui or wpa_cli, unless allowAuxiliaryImperativeNetworks is used.
Declarations
Type
boolean or (attribute set) convertible to it
Default
false
