If you're just using wpa_supplicant with systemd-networkd for example, just use the part from WPAConfigSection, like - insert this block into /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-wlp2s0.conf.

network={
        ssid="Wireless@SGx"
        key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
        eap=PEAP
        identity="<username@m1net.com.sg>"
        password="<password>"
}

Then, trigger this to take effect by restarting wpa_supplicant:

sudo systemctl restart wpa_supplicant@wlp2s0.service

Check for errors with

journalctl -xe

wpa_supplicant-<interface>.conf only allows the use of double quotes for strings (not single quotes)
