wpa-psk has long been replaced with the ifconfig(8) wpakey option.
wpakey passphrase | hexkey
Set the WPA key and enable WPA. The key can be given using
either a passphrase or a full length hex key, starting with 0x.
If a passphrase is used the nwid option must be set prior to
specifying the wpakey option, since ifconfig will hash the nwid
along with the passphrase to create the key.
