Abstract
A system comprises an access point and a client device. The access point receives, using near field communication (NFC) technology, a public key associated with the client device and sends, using NFC technology, a public key associated with the access point. The access point further encrypts configuration data associated with a network and sends the encrypted configuration data to the client device. The client device receives, using NFC technology, a command indicating that a public key associated with the client device is to be sent to the access point and sends, using NFC technology, the public key to the access point. The client device further receives, using NFC technology, a public key associated with the access point and configures the client device to wirelessly connect to a network associated with the access point.
