[Yin]Yes, these IOT devices are updatable. However, in IOT application scenario, there will be millions( even billions ) of IOT devices. Companies will not easily upgrade such a large number of devices because of operation and maintenance cost and power consumption of IOT device upgrading. You see that current products from different companies are all based on DTLS1.2 since DTLS1.3 is under standardization. We hope there could be a solution to solve the problem of these products based on DTLS1.2. > 2.

I got wrong information about the implementation state of TLS/DTLS1.3. For DTLS1.3, the implementation will be ready about 1 year, and during this period products have no DTLS1.3 implementation to use. > Any comment is appreciated. > > Regards, > Yin Xinxing > > > 发件人: yinxinxing > 发送时间: 2017年6月27日 16:28 > 收件人: 'Eric Rescorla' > 抄送: tls@ietf.org; Tobias Gondrom > 主题: Re: [TLS] Yin Xinxing joins the TLS WG > > Thanks Eric, > > I have seen the CID scheme, and talked with Hannes(the author of the scheme). > > CID scheme is a good idea to solve the problem I mentioned. > > I think the length of CID (currently, it is 32 bits) can be longer so that it > can support more DTLS sessions.
