 AP (this or ESSID is required)
 :   AP (BSSID) of the network to connect to.
 HIDDEN (optional)
-:   Define this to connect to hidden ESSIDs.
+:   Assume the SSID of this network might not be broadcast and probe for it instead. Can be 'yes' or 'no', defaults to 'no'.
 ADHOC (optional)
 :   Define this to use ad-hoc mode for wireless.
 TIMEOUT (optional)
 :   Time to wait for association. Defaults to 15 seconds. 
 SCAN (optional)
 :   yes/no Scan for a wireless network rather than blindly attempting to connect. Hidden SSID networks do not appear in a scan. 
+PRIORITY (optional)
+:   Integer value to use as the wpa_supplicant priority value for this network. The default is '0'. This will override the default internal preferences of wpa_supplicant.
 IWCONFIG (optional, deprecated)
 :   Run iwconfig with these options before attempting to configure the connection.
