Feature Request add WPA Enterprise Support

Hardware

WiFimanager Branch/Release:

Development

Esp8266/Esp32:

ESP8266
ESP32

**Hardware:

Other

**ESP Core Version:

staging (master/dev)

Description

WPA Enterprise modes are possible of both the esp32 and the esp8266 but require certs for the network to be embedded into the eprom to be secure (there are some caveats with how CHAP/PEAP user credentials are exchanged, these are documented in several threads on getting WPA enterprise to work)

This feature request is to allow WiFiManager the ability to upload a new cert and join a WPA Enterprise Network. This is especially useful for a huge amount of use cases, including IoT Vlan Dynamic Assignment, Campus Sensornets and many other situations. Making this functionality available via WiFiManager will take the complication of setting up the ESPs to use WPA Enterprise trivial.
