+Device Provisioning Protocol (DPP)
+==================================
+
+This document describes how the Device Provisioning Protocol (DPP)
+implementation in wpa_supplicant and hostapd can be configured and how
+the STA device and AP can be configured to connect each other using DPP
+Connector mechanism.
+
+Introduction to DPP
+-------------------
+
+Device provisioning Protocol allows enrolling of interface-less devices
+in a secure Wi-Fi network using many methods like QR code based
+authentication( detailed below ), PKEX based authentication etc. In DPP
+a Configurator is used to provide network credentials to the devices.
+The three phases of DPP connection are authentication, configuration and
+network introduction.
+
+Build config setup
+------------------
+
+The following changes must go in the config file used to compile hostapd
+and wpa_supplicant.
+
+wpa_supplicant build config
+---------------------------
+
+Enable DPP and protected management frame in wpa_supplicant build config
+file
+
+CONFIG_IEEE80211W=y
+CONFIG_DPP=y
+
+hostapd build config
+--------------------
+
+Enable DPP and protected management frame in hostapd build config file
+
+CONFIG_IEEE80211W=y
+CONFIG_DPP=y
+
+Configurator build config
+-------------------------
+
+Any STA or AP device can act as a Configurator. Enable DPP and protected
+managment frames in build config. For an AP to act as Configurator,
+Interworking needs to be enabled. For wpa_supplicant it is not required.
+
+CONFIG_INTERWORKING=y
+
+
+Sample supplicant config file before provisioning
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
+ctrl_interface_group=0
+update_config=1
+pmf=2
+dpp_config_processing=2
+
+Sample hostapd config file before provisioning
+----------------------------------------------
+
+interface=wlan0
+driver=nl80211
+ctrl_interface=/var/run/hostapd
+ssid=test
+channel=1
+wpa=2
+wpa_key_mgmt=DPP
+ieee80211w=1
+wpa_pairwise=CCMP
+rsn_pairwise=CCMP
+
+
+Pre-requisites
+--------------
+
+It is assumed that an AP and client station are up by running hostapd
+and wpa_supplicant using respective config files.
+
+
+Creating Configurator
+---------------------
+
+Add a Configurator over the control interface (wpa_cli/hostapd_cli)
+
+> dpp_configurator_add
+(returns id)
+
+To get key of Configurator
+> dpp_configurator_get_key <id>
+
+
+How to configure an enrollee using Configurator
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+On enrollee side:
+
+Generate QR code for the device. Store the qr code id returned by the
+command.
+
+> dpp_bootstrap_gen type=qrcode mac=<mac-address-of-device> chan=<operating-channel> key=<key of the device>
+(returns bootstrapping info id)
+
+Get QR Code of device using the bootstrap info id.
+> dpp_bootstrap_get_uri <bootstrap-id>
+
+Make device listen to DPP request (The central frequency of channel 1 is
+2412) in case if enrollee is a client device.
+
+> dpp_listen <frequency>
+
+On Configurator side:
+
+Enter the QR Code in the Configurator.
+> dpp_qr_code "<QR-Code-read-from-enrollee>"
+
+On successfully adding QR Code, a bootstrapping info id is returned.
+
+Send provisioning request to enrollee. (conf is ap-dpp if enrollee is an
+AP. conf is sta-dpp if enrollee is a client)
+> dpp_auth_init peer=<qr-code-id> conf=<ap-dpp|sta-dpp> configurator=<configurator-id>
+
+The DPP values will be printed in the console. Save this values into the
+config file. If the enrollee is an AP, we need to manually write these
+values to the hostapd config file. If the enrollee is a client device,
+these details can be automatically saved to config file using the
+following command.
+
+> save_config
+
+To set values in runtime for AP enrollees
+
+> set dpp_connector <Connector-value-printed-on-console>
+> set dpp_csign <csign-value-on-console>
+> set dpp_netaccesskey <netaccess-value-on-console>
+
+To set values in runtime for client enrollees, set dpp_config_processing
+to 2 in wpa_supplicant conf file.
+
+Once the values are set in run-time (if not set in run-time, but saved
+in config files, they are taken up in next restart), the client device
+will automatically connect to the already provisioned AP and connection
+will be established.
+
+
+Self-configuring a device
+-------------------------
+
+It is possible for a device to configure itself if it is the
+Configurator for the network.
+
+Create a Configurator in the device and use the dpp_configurator_sign
+command to get DPP credentials.
+
+> dpp_configurator_add
+(returns configurator id)
+> dpp_configurator_sign conf=<ap-dpp|sta-dpp> configurator=<configurator-id>
+
