I make my home Wi-Fi transmitter shut down overnight to keep the kids off their phones. The NAS I use has 1000s of lines spamming the journal because it tries to connect. They look like "wpa_supplicant[3125]: wlan0: Failed to initiate sched scan." It tries every 8 seconds. I want to know how I can silence them.
My network is setup is from the wiki, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sy … me_machine and I use the wpa_supplicant@.service

-q Decrease debugging verbosity (-qq even less).
Alternatively you could see about having the service log to /dev/null but that would be more extreme. Try a dropin with the -qq option.

Given that the wifi shuts down (and presumably starts back up) at defined times, just run timer services to shut down and start up wpa_supplicant at the same time.
Even if you silence the ouput, it seems wasteful to be looking for a wireless network every 8 seconds if it's known ahead of time that it will not be available for ~8 hours.
