Re: [m2m-iwg] Authentication in CoAP

Hi,
I'm not sure it's the good mailing list for this kind of question, but
I'm not sure which one is the good one :)

CoAP doesn't support auth in the way HTTP.
I think if you want to add security (authentication) on top of CoAP
the usual way is to use DTLS (which is supported by Californium).

The LWM2M ACL model is really specific to the problem it's solving:
device management with multiple servers, I don't think it's what you
are looking for.
