            Bug ID: 284126
           Summary: wpa_supplicant.conf(5): Network blocks: invalid
                    parameters (network configuration variables)
           Product: Documentation
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Manual Pages
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org

The manual page describes use of parameters that were removed in 2008. 

base df0c787c3ece1d65fd6fef34aa8f56da557b5ac0 (2022-01-17) included: 

2008-02-22 - v0.6.3
        * removed 'nai' and 'eappsk' network configuration variables that were
          previously used for configuring user identity and key for EAP-PSK,
          EAP-PAX, EAP-SAKE, and EAP-GPSK. 'identity' field is now used as the
          replacement for 'nai' (if old configuration used a separate
          'identity' value, that would now be configured as
          'anonymous_identity'). 'password' field is now used as the
          replacement for 'eappsk' (it can also be set using hexstring to
          present random binary data)

Whether the page is outdated in other ways, I don't know. The two parameters
above were identified in ports bug 284095 comment 2.
