Hi Solomon,
Thanks for responding quickly!
Please see my comments below ---
“PMK = PSK is certainly a method, but “some parameters” could be more general. This was originally proposed by Rojan in 11-25/0819”
Actually, the PBKDF is used to derive the PMK from the password, which is substantially shorter than the PSK.
But in any case, what is the computation method for the mentioned PBKDF?
We have not got into details on how to generate PMK from PSK. That would need a consensus in the future. That’s why “some parameters for generating a PMK from PSK”
is used in current text.
“Data will be encrypted by an AEAD cipher using TK as the key. The AAD of the AEAD cipher includes all fields that need protection plus SNonce. MIC is generated by the AEAD cipher.”
I think it shall be clarified in the sentence.
Sure, I will improve the clarify of current text (copied below), which should have covered the above idea but I will take a look again.
- If there are uplink data pending for encrypted transmission, the non-AP AMP STA sends the SNonce, the encrypted uplink data,
and a MIC to the AMP AP in the first uplink AMP frame, where the MIC is generated by an AEAD cipher using the TK as the key with the SNonce included in the AAD and the uplink data as the encrypted data (12.5.2.3, 12.5.4.3).
Best regards,
Hui
