Abstract
A method operable by a computing device for configuring access for a limited user interface (UI) device to a network service via a local network access point is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: obtaining from the limited UI device a device identifier via a first out-of-band channel. The device identifier is provided to the network service via a secure network link. A zero knowledge proof (ZKP) challenge is received from the network service. Configuration information is provided to the limited-UI device via a second out-of-band channel, the configuration information including information sufficient to enable the limited-UI device to connect to the local network access point. The ZKP challenge is provided to the limited-UI device via the second out-of-band channel. A secure channel key is received from the network service indicating a successful response from the limited-UI device to the ZKP challenge; and provided to the limited-UI device enabling the limited-UI device to access the network service.
