+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).
