WPA3 in a mixed environment

WPA3 in a mixed environment

In one location, we have a mix of AP230s, 1130s, and 390s. The auth on one of our SSIDs appears to have updated to WPA3. Unfortunately, when I attempt a push (complete or delta) to the 390s, it fails with the following error...

 

Could not generate the CLI configuration. You have configured WPA3 (SAE) Personal Authentication in SSID (ssid_name), but only the device (not 11ax) with version 8.4.r7(+) supports this. 

 

Do we need to downgrade the auth to WPA2 in this environment, or is this a known issue with a fix to follow?

The AP390s are not compatible with the 8.X HiveOS releases. This would include features such as WPA3 compatibility. I would recommend that you only utilize WPA2 in your configuration. If you created another policy so one had a WPA2 SSID and the other had WPA3, even if the SSIDs shared identical broadcast names, the clients still wouldn't roam seamlessly.
