Hi: Does it support WPA2 Enterprise? stm32F407+esp32-C3+(ESP-Hosted-FG Release 0.0.5, Use default firmware) What encryption methods do AP support?

Station and softap support different auth modes.

Station supports a lot of modes, but softap doesn't. ESP-Hosted relied on ESP-IDF Wi-Fi driver for this.

On master ESP-IDF Wi-Fi documentation, I can see,

[!NOTE] ESP32-C3 supports Wi-Fi Enterprise only in station mode.

Also, security protocol support depends upon the ESP-IDF version you use. We suggest you use latest stable ESP-IDF (5.3).

SoftAP supports WPA2, WPA3 and many other lower security protocols. Exact supported security protocols and limitation in softap mode could be found on https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32c3/api-guides/wifi-security.html#wi-fi-security

While starting softap from host, you need to mention which mode it needs to start with. You can also build the firmware using https://github.com/espressif/esp-hosted/blob/master/esp_hosted_fg/docs/Linux_based_host/SPI_setup.md#222-source-compilation for SPI
