Configuring ethernet access with 802.1X, PEAP and wpa_supplicant

Hello, I am currently installing Arch, but I have to configure wired a 802.1X Ethernet connection, with PEAP authentification (and no certificate used). I've read different topics, and after different tries, I created this (changing username and password to the right ones) :

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
ap_scan=2
update_config=1 #writable by gui

network={
key_mgmt=IEEE8021X
eap=PEAP
identity="username"
password="password"
phase1="peaplabel=0"
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
}

Then, I run

wpa_supplicant -i eno1 -d -B -Dwired -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

and finally got this :

wpa_supplicant v2.6
Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant
Initializing interface 'eno1' conf '/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf' driver 'wired' ctrl_interface 'N/A' bridge 'N/A'

EAP: EAP entering state DISABLED
Using existing control interface directory.
ctrl_interface_group=0
eno1: Added interface eno1
eno1: State: DISCONNECTED -> DISCONNECTED
Daemonize..

And trying to ping websites I can access with my phone doesn't work, I suppose that's also what the final state of eno1 means (DISCONNECTED).

I'm new to wpa_supplicant, and I can't figure out what's wrong here. Could you help me please ?

P.S.: This is the beginning of Arch install, so I'm on a live USB.
