WPS with NFC
------------
WPS can be used with NFC-based configuration method. An NFC tag
containing a password token from the Enrollee can be used to
authenticate the connection instead of the PIN. In addition, an NFC tag
with a configuration token can be used to transfer AP settings without
going through the WPS protocol.
When the AP acts as an Enrollee, a local NFC tag with a password token
can be used by touching the NFC interface of an external Registrar. The
wps_nfc_token command is used to manage use of the NFC password token
from the AP. "wps_nfc_token enable" enables the use of the AP's NFC
password token (in place of AP PIN) and "wps_nfc_token disable" disables
the NFC password token.
The NFC password token that is either pre-configured in the
configuration file (wps_nfc_dev_pw_id, wps_nfc_dh_pubkey,
wps_nfc_dh_privkey, wps_nfc_dev_pw) or generated dynamically with
"wps_nfc_token <WPS|NDEF>" command. The nfc_pw_token tool from
wpa_supplicant can be used to generate NFC password tokens during
manufacturing (each AP needs to have its own random keys).
The "wps_nfc_config_token <WPS/NDEF>" command can be used to build an
NFC configuration token. The output value from this command is a hexdump
of the current AP configuration (WPS parameter requests this to include
only the WPS attributes; NDEF parameter requests additional NDEF
encapsulation to be included). This data needs to be written to an NFC
tag with an external program. Once written, the NFC configuration token
can be used to touch an NFC interface on a station to provision the
credentials needed to access the network.
When the NFC device on the AP reads an NFC tag with a MIME media type
"application/vnd.wfa.wsc", the NDEF message payload (with or without
NDEF encapsulation) can be delivered to hostapd using the
following hostapd_cli command:
wps_nfc_tag_read <hexdump of payload>
If the NFC tag contains a password token, the token is added to the
internal Registrar. This allows station Enrollee from which the password
token was received to run through WPS protocol to provision the
credential.

WPS with NFC
------------
WPS can be used with NFC-based configuration method. An NFC tag
containing a password token from the Enrollee can be used to
authenticate the connection instead of the PIN. In addition, an NFC tag
with a configuration token can be used to transfer AP settings without
going through the WPS protocol.
When the station acts as an Enrollee, a local NFC tag with a password
token can be used by touching the NFC interface of a Registrar.
"wps_nfc [BSSID]" command starts WPS protocol run with the local end as
the Enrollee using the NFC password token that is either pre-configured
in the configuration file (wps_nfc_dev_pw_id, wps_nfc_dh_pubkey,
wps_nfc_dh_privkey, wps_nfc_dev_pw) or generated dynamically with
"wps_nfc_token <WPS|NDEF>" command. The included nfc_pw_token tool
(build with "make nfc_pw_token") can be used to generate NFC password
tokens during manufacturing (each station needs to have its own random
keys).
If the station includes NFC interface and reads an NFC tag with a MIME
media type "application/vnd.wfa.wsc", the NDEF message payload (with or
without NDEF encapsulation) can be delivered to wpa_supplicant using the
following wpa_cli command:
wps_nfc_tag_read <hexdump of payload>
If the NFC tag contains a configuration token, the network is added to
wpa_supplicant configuration. If the NFC tag contains a password token,
the token is added to the WPS Registrar component. This information can
then be used with wps_reg command (when the NFC password token was from
an AP) using a special value "nfc-pw" in place of the PIN parameter. If
the ER functionality has been started (wps_er_start), the NFC password
token is used to enable enrollment of a new station (that was the source
of the NFC password token).
