The controller selects between two implementations: legacy and new.

The legacy method of configuring the security type (OVSDB security field) is unable to set WPA3. Therefore, the new method must be used. Method selection is defined by the SDN controller.

...

Within WPA3 support, a new "default_oftag" field was introduced. The field serves as a fallback for oftag lookup and is used whenever a better oftag cannot be find. At the moment, only WPA2 Personal can use multiple oftags associated to different PSks, in all other cases generic "default_oftag" should be set.
