Hi Peter, Joe,

We made it clear that DPP R2 has already been published  with a name change:



*Wi-Fi Easy Connect™*

*Specification*

*Version 2.0*



Wi-Fi Easy Connect is the new DPP, which the authors seemingly did not know about.

  Wi-Fi Easy Connect is the name of a certification program at the Wi-Fi Alliance
for devices that implement the DPP protocol.

  I am well aware of Wi-Fi Easy Connect (having invented the protocols that are used in it and have contributed to development of the test plan). It seems that you aren't.

Also the problem that this draft deals with and also Elliott mentioned in his mail, Wi-Fi Easy Connect already solves it.

  That is not correct, this draft deals with on-boarding of wired devices on networks that enforce security. Such networks enforce 802.1x and as soon as a device is plugged into such a switch an EAP Identity-Request will be sent. No packets other than EAPoL are allowed. Certainly no TCP frames encapsulating DPP messages! So it is not possible to do any DPP-over-TCP (or if you will "Wi-Fi Easy Connect over TCP") in such a situation.

  Wi-Fi Easy Connect, which is a certification program, does not solve this problem. Neither
does the DPP protocol which Wi-Fi Easy Connect certifies compliance to.

  The issue that IP connectivity cannot be established until authentication and DPP-over-TCP requires IP connectivity to perform authentication. It's a classic catch-22. Why don't you
see this obvious problem?

  regards,

  Dan.

Regards,
Behcet

    In retrospect, sending the call for adoption at the height of August
    vacation season may not have guaranteed the most responses. To be
    honest,
    the level of responses to this call has been a little light, so
    Joe and I
    have decided to extend the call for adoption for one week from today.

    We would really like to hear from anyone else who is interested in
    reviewing
    and/or contributing to this specification or anyone who feels that
    it should
    not be adopted. Please speak up by the 14th either way. This
    specification
    would seemingly fit within the WG's existing charter, so let your
    voice be
    heard!

    Thanks,

    Peter and Joe

    Subject: Adoption call for EAP-DPP

    This is an adoption call for EAP-DPP
    (draft-friel-tls-eap-dpp-05)[1]. This
    document aligns with the charter item to "Define mechanisms by
    which EAP
    methods can support creation of long-term credentials for the peer
    based on
    initial limited-use credentials." The latest revision incorporates
    feedback
    from both the TLS and EMU working groups. Please review and
    respond to the
    list if you think this document is or is not an appropriate
    working group
    item for EMU by September 1, 2022.

    Thanks,

    Peter and Joe
