+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).
+
+The "wps_nfc_config_token <WPS/NDEF>" command can be used to build an
+NFC configuration token when wpa_supplicant is controlling an AP
+interface (AP or P2P GO). 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.
+
+The "wps_nfc_config_token <WPS/NDEF> <network id>" command can be used
+to build an NFC configuration token based on a locally configured
+network.
+
+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).
+
+"nfc_get_handover_req <NDEF> <WPS-CR>" command can be used to build the
+WPS carrier record for a Handover Request Message for connection
+handover. The first argument selects the format of the output data and
+the second argument selects which type of connection handover is
+requested (WPS-CR = Wi-Fi handover as specified in WSC 2.0).
+
+"nfc_get_handover_sel <NDEF> <WPS> [UUID|BSSID]" command can be used to
+build the contents of a Handover Select Message for connection handover
+when this does not depend on the contents of the Handover Request
+Message. The first argument selects the format of the output data and
+the second argument selects which type of connection handover is
+requested (WPS = Wi-Fi handover as specified in WSC 2.0). If the options
+UUID|BSSID argument is included, this is a request to build the handover
+message for the specified AP when wpa_supplicant is operating as a WPS
+ER.
+
+"nfc_report_handover <INIT/RESP> WPS <carrier from handover request>
+<carrier from handover select>" can be used as an alternative way for
+reporting completed NFC connection handover. The first parameter
+indicates whether the local device initiated or responded to the
+connection handover and the carrier records are the selected carrier
+from the handover request and select messages as a hexdump.
+
+The "wps_er_nfc_config_token <WPS/NDEF> <UUID|BSSID>" command can be
+used to build an NFC configuration token for the specified AP when
+wpa_supplicant is operating as a WPS ER. The output value from this
+command is a hexdump of the selected 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.
