Subject: [staging/HTTPS-TLS][PATCH] Readme.MD: Add the feature support scope
Date: Fri, 25 Nov 2016 11:57:49 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1480046269-133288-1-git-send-email-jiaxin.wu@intel.com> (raw)

This patch is used to add the feature support scope to indicate
the feature completeness criteria, and some contents are also
updated/refined, e.g. Timeline and Feature Verification section.

 #### HTTPS Authentication
 TLS supports three authentication modes ([RFC5246](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5246)):
 ```
-1. Total anonymity: the server and client won’t authenticate each other.
+1. Total anonymity: the server and client will not authenticate each other.
 2. One-way authentication: server authentication with an unauthenticated client.
 3. Two-way authentication: authentication of both parties.
 ```
 Currently, HTTPS boot feature only support server authentication with an unauthenticated client mode. Others are not in our current feature support scope. To support one-way authentication mode, server CA certificate is required by Client. Private variable is used to configure this CA certificate. **EFI_SIGNATURE_LIST** format is used for this variable. In sum, the Server CA certificate must be configured first to enable HTTPS boot feature. The variable name and GUID are defined as below.

+## Feature Support Scope
+*	Feature usage: Load the specified file from the remote HTTPS server successfully and steadily.
+* UEFI Arch: IA32 and X64 platform.
+*	TLS version: TLS1.0/1.1/1.2, version negotiation.
+*	HTTPS authentication mode: One-way authentication.
+*	CA certificates management: Private variable, prevent runtime phase attack.

 ## Feature Verification
-Tomcat and IIS8 are selected as the HTTPS server to verifiy the result, Detiled see below table.
+Tomcat, IIS 8 and Apache2 are selected as the HTTPS server to verify the result of loading the UEFI shell boot file (Shell.efi), detailed see below table.

 ### NOTES
 TLS version 1.2 in windows server 2012 R2 IIS8 (As HTTPS server) CAN NOT collaborate with UEFI HTTPS client while version 1.1/1.0 works well. To make the UEFI HTTPS client in staging works properly, we have to disable TLS version 1.2 in windows server 2012 R2 by the below PowerShell script:
 ```
 New-Item 'HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols\TLS 1.2\Server' -Force | Out-Null
