The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Bootstrapped TLS Authentication with Proof of Knowledge (TLS-POK)' (draft-ietf-emu-bootstrapped-tls-10.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the EAP Method Update Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Paul Wouters and Deb Cooley. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-emu-bootstrapped-tls/ Technical Summary This document defines a mechanism that enables a bootstrapping device to establish trust and mutually authenticate against a network. Bootstrapping devices have a public private key pair, and this mechanism enables a network server to prove to the device that it knows the public key, and the device to prove to the server that it knows the private key. The mechanism leverages existing DPP and TLS standards and can be used in an EAP exchange. Working Group Summary Within the context of the relatively small EMU WG, there was concurrence from major contributors in the WG for the publication of this specification. The authors have gracefully incorporated feedback from the WG, which is reflected in the current version of the draft. Document Quality This specification is an adaption of the Wi-Fi Alliance’s DPP (Device Provisioning Protocol), it is wire bound and in no way supplants DPP for WLAN environments. Thus, it has not itself seen deployment yet, but its very similar cousin is widely deployed. Personnel The Document Shepherd for this document is Peter E. Yee. The Responsible Area Director is Paul Wouters. _______________________________________________ Emu mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
