Abstract:
This document describes the minimal framework required for a new
device, called "pledge", to securely join a 6TiSCH (IPv6 over the
TSCH mode of IEEE 802.15.4e) network. The framework requires that
the pledge and the JRC (join registrar/coordinator, a central
entity), share a symmetric key. How this key is provisioned is out
of scope of this document. Through a single CoAP (Constrained
Application Protocol) request-response exchange secured by OSCORE
(Object Security for Constrained RESTful Environments), the pledge
requests admission into the network and the JRC configures it with
link-layer keying material and other parameters. The JRC may at any
time update the parameters through another request-response exchange
secured by OSCORE. This specification defines the Constrained Join
Protocol and its CBOR (Concise Binary Object Representation) data
structures, a new Stateless-Proxy CoAP option, and configures the
rest of the 6TiSCH communication stack for this join process to occur
in a secure manner. Additional security mechanisms may be added on
top of this minimal framework.
