Joe, what Dan is proposing is a reasonable way to use a one-time password for 
the initial provisioning of a trust anchor. Initial provisioning is important 
for many types of deployments. Does the document allow an alternative secure 
way to do that?

Dan, I suspect that for this specific use case (one time use, no need for 
confidentiality), resistance against dictionary attack is not very important. 
So EAP-GPSK inside the tunnel will do just as well.

Thanks,
        Yaron
