Unfortunately the DragonFly 802.11 network stack does not yet support WPA.
This support has only recently been brought into FreeBSD-current by Sam
Leffler.

Damien has a working iwi driver for FreeBSD-current and it will be trivial
for me to fold that support into this driver, but I'm not sure if anyone in
the DragonFly world is working (yet) at porting the FreeBSD-current 802.11
network stack to DragonFly. I'm sure it's on someone's todo list ;) ...
