Hello everyone

According to the spec, the rendezvous server can be in the local network. So a manufacturer can add it to the list of servers to try, when device boots.

Being in a local network with a local domain, prevents issuing of a SSL certificate that is derived from regular CAs.

This means either the manufacturer has to embed a custom CA and generate SSL for end user, or do the rendezvous communication without SSL.

Or are we misunderstanding the spec?

Thank you
Boris

You can do FDO over http as well. But yes, if you go for https or coaps it will require some root certificate
