Hi,

We've put this together to address the general question of the
u/g bits in Interface IDs. Discussion is requested.

	Title           : The U and G bits in IPv6 Interface Identifiers
	Author(s)       : Brian Carpenter
                          Sheng Jiang

Abstract:
   The IPv6 addressing architecture defines a method by which the
   Universal and Group bits of an IEEE link-layer address are mapped
   into an IPv6 unicast interface identifier.  This document clarifies
   the status of those bits for interface identifiers that are not
   derived from an IEEE link-layer address.

There is a better way out to track the IPv6 addresses used by the hosts
(via SLAAC or static) -

This is still inaccurate. =20

I REALLY would be greatly obliged if you would not speculate=20
about ILNP on IETF/IRTF mailing lists, primarily because=20
any speculation is likely to be wrong -- and create needless
confusion amongst other folks on those lists.=20

Some published ILNP papers talk about a form of multicast
addressing/routing that we believe is novel and are exploring. =20
This combines a unicast routing prefix in the high-order=20
64-bits with an IEEE EUI-64 compliant (and RFC-4291=20
compliant) multicast group ID (i.e., U=3DG=3D1) in the low-order=20
64-bits.  Because of existing IETF standards-track work=20
where U=3D0, for example CGAs or "privacy" addresses, the=20
U=3D0 identifier space (i.e., U=3D0 and G=3D1) can NOT be used=20
for multicast identifiers.

So the proposed 4rd reservation of all (or most) uses of=20
addresses with the combination of (A) U=3DG=3D1 identifier space=20
and (B) unicast routing prefix is a direct conflict with
published ILNP papers and active ILNP work.

Both ILNP and 4rd are Experimental, at least today. =20
This is why I tabled the possibility of allocating=20
a small portion of the U=3DG=3D1 space under RFC-3692 shared=20
experimental use rules.  That would permit multiple=20
experiments to proceed, and is the usual IETF custom
for experimental work when a limited protocol-registry
resource is involved.

Yours,

Ran

Ran,

I looked at the ILNP RFCs while we were preparing draft-carpenter-6man-ug=
-00,
and it seemed to me that ILNP doesn't in fact use IIDs, but rather
a redefinition of the bottom 64 bits as a Node Identifier [RFC6741].
Doesn't that separate the use of the u/g bits for ILNP completely
from their use in plain IPv6?

Please have a look at the draft and suggest corrections if it seems
wrong to you.

Regards
   Brian

Hi Maglione,=20

Thanks for your review and a good question.

draft-ietf-dhc-addr-registration introduces a new IPv6 Neighbor Discovery
option and a
   new DHCPv6 option to propagate the address registration information
from the hosts to the network.  It requires the changes on the host.



draft-asati-dhc-ipv6-autoconfig-address-tracking, on the other hand,
requires no changes to IPv6 Neighbor Discovery and no changes to the
hosts. It introduces changes in DHCPv6 specific to the last hop router and
the DHCP server, thereby keeping the changes within the network (and DHCP
server).


Cheers,
Rajiv

ILNPv6 changes the *semantics* of the lower 64-bits 
*from the view of the transport-layer and above*, 
but is quite careful to keep the syntax unchanged.

Keeping the syntax unchanged is crucial to ensuring
that ordinary IPv6 routers can/will forward ILNPv6 
packets -- without even needing to know that they are 
ILNPv6 packets.

In turn, the ability of ILNPv6 to incrementally-deploy
within an already extant IPv6 deployment is crucial.
Flag-day transitions are broadly unacceptable for
very good operational reasons, so ILNPv6 must remain 
backwards-compatible with existing IPv6.

A great deal of time was spent engineering both ILNPv4
and ILNPv6 to ensure that each would be backwards-
compatible with IPv4 and IPv6 infrastructure (respectively).

No, as explained above.

I haven't done yet, due to lack of time,
but will put reviewing that onto my to-do list.

Going directly to your conclusion, it appears we have a clear common =
interest!

Each of the designs we are interested in depends, to be complete, on =
reservation of a subset of the IID space left unused by RFC4291 (that =
having u=3Dg=3D1).

Since you talk about "a small portion" of this space for ILNP, and since =
4rd only needs only 1/2^14 of this space, I rather see convergence than =
conflict.

Hoping we can agree on it,
Regards,
RD

Contributing on IETF mailing lists, including on what concerns existing =

This is precisely the point I have actively contributed to make in 6man!

The currently proposed IID prefix is 0x0300. It only uses 1/2^14 of the =
u=3Dg=3D1 space of RFC-4291.

This can't be characterized as " reservation of all (or most) uses" of =
this space. (Your turn to misrepresent, by mistake, the situation. Your =
apologies after mine will be welcome.)

As said at the top of this mail, this shows we have converging =

Right, that was how I understood it. I'm hoping that what
the draft proposes is compatible with ILNP, so I await
your comments.

There is also draft-ietf-dhc-dhcpv6-client-link-layer-addr-opt-04
which handles the case for DHCPv6 clients.  That also requires no
changes to clients--only the DHCPv6 Relay Agent.

Hi Chuck,

Yah, but draft-ietf-dhc-dhcpv6-client-link-layer-addr-opt is for DHCPv6
clients, as you rightly pointed out, and not for SLAAC/static hosts.

Cheers,
Rajiv

This document doesn't apply to SLAAC or CGA addresses, though=97just statef=
ul addresses acquired through DHCPv6.   Admittedly, we could also snoop DHC=
PINFORM traffic, but there's no guarantee that all devices on the network w=
ill do a DHCPINFORM, even if the O bit is set.

You can also of course just use tools that harvest data from =
network/switch/router devices, and build the info from that. There's a =
number of open source options in that space, from bespoke tools for =
address tracking through to full-on monitoring platforms. Then you don't =

Regardless, I hope draft-ietf-dhc-dhcpv6-client-link-layer-addr-opt =
progresses.

The second bullet is not tru: e.g. temp addresses do not do anything to
preserve the "g" bit (the "u" bit *is* forced to 0, though);


Section 2:

Not that I'm aware of. -- AFAIK, the u bit is just used to reduce the
probability of collisions if your IIDs are derived from global
identifiers (more on this below).


Section 2, page 4:
>

This seems to assume that the namespace (Identifiers) of two different
technologies does not overlap. Such assumption sounds like dubious to
me... but I might be missing something.

i.e. some non-IEEE technology is expected to obey the u/g bits?


Section 3:

How can you tell whether an IID was really derived from a MAC address,
or you just had pretty bad luck with your IID randomization -- such tha
it *looks* like derived form a mac address?

Thanks!

Both are *experiments*.  Neither is a standard.

With respect to Softwire, they decided to standardise
something other than 4rd.  Had they decided to=20
standardise 4rd, my views would be different,=20
but that wasn't the decision actually made in Softwire.

For *experiments*, a small shared use experimental=20
allocation *under RFC-3692 rules* should be both=20
sufficient and an appropriate approach -- and also
can be used with any other experiments that might arise=20
in future.

I haven't asked for any ILNP-specific allocation,
in part because my reading of the standards-track RFCs,=20
for example in RFC-4291, is that the (U=3D1 and G=3D1) space=20
is ALREADY designated for Multicast Identifiers.

With regard to section 3, I would ask the question in the reverse. 
(which may actually be the same quewstion Fernando is asking.)

If we assume that there is value in being able to perform the diagnostic 
operation described, then it seems that one needs to be able to tell 
when it can be applied.
Currently, that is u==1 in the IID field.
The text says that u==1 must be used n the IID field for IIDs derived 
from EUI-64.
But it the goes on to say that u=1 can be used by other addresses.
If u=1 can be used by addresses not derived from EUI-64, then the 
diagnostic operation can not be applied without a-priori knowledge.
And in the presence of such knowledge, the u bit does not seem to help.

The obvious answer is that to enable the diagnostic, and because there 
is no need to make a gratuitous change, we stick with u=1 being used 
always and only for addresses derived from EUI-64.

The other alternative I can understand, although I do not favor it, is 
to not allow the diagnostic at all.

Yours,
Joel

But if we enforce u=1 only for IIDS based on EUI-64, there might be
other IIDs generated with some other mechanism, that lead to IIDs with
such bit set to 1.

Unless u=1 is enforced for all identifiers, chances are that eventually
some other technology will generate an IID with u==1, and one would
mistakenly assume that such IID was based on IEEE identifiers...

(yes, in order for such "collisions" to occur, u would have to be 1, and
the other technology would also have to produce the 0xfffe we currently
insert to generate the Modified EUI64 identifiers... but "s* happens",
they say...)

Cheers,

Well yes, but the statement *is* true when an IID is created from a MAC
address, which is the point being made at that point in the document.
(See my next message for my comment on Joel's reply.)

Who said that though? You are suggesting an intention which is nowhere
in the documents. In any case, as soon as you admit a non-zero probability
of collision, the game is changed.

Yes, I believe it was a faulty assumption from the start (and I am one
of the guilty parties).

You can't. Operationally you *might* have enough knowledge, but that is
exactly why we included the word "guessed".

Correct. Semantically, it's a dead duck. That's already true, whatever
words are written in RFCs - the fact that u=1 does not prove the IID
comes from a MAC address with u=0, and vice versa.

But that doesn't mean that the IID was derived from a MAC address,
so its value is limited.

The alternative is what we have today: *assume* that an IID that looks
as if it came from a MAC address in fact did so.

Hello,

Anyone had an opportunity to view the new version of our SSAS draft RFC. I
received no comments after I applied the last comments given by Ray, Jeremy,
Fernando and others.  Your thoughts and comments would be greatly
appreciated.

Brian,

I agree that this is a good time to clarify uses of u and g bits, and =
support the initiative Sheng and yourself has taken.
Comments and suggestions inline.

It completely eliminates collisions for all devices that comply with =
IEEE specifications, and dramatically reduces it where some vendors have =
reused some IEEE MAC addresses.
If two devices have the same IEEE MAC address on a link, they have a =
problem at the link layer, even before having one at the IP layer, and =
has to be fixed.=20

In any case, and more important in my understanding, this doesn't change =
that any IID having u=3Dg=3D1 can never conflict with IEEE-derived IIDs, =
be they duplicated or not. A clarification on this would IMHO be useful.

AFAIK, it means that *if u=3D1* the structure of other bits has to be =
universally specified. This is used so far for IEEE-derived IIDs. It can =
advantageously be used for other technologies, as foreseen in RFC4291 =
itself. 4rd is just the first proposed new use.


> i.e. some non-IEEE technology is expected to obey the u/g bits?

- For all addresses subject to SLAAC, all IETF technologies are =
constrained by the u-bit meaning of RFC4291. If u=3D0, all other bits =
have no recognizable structure; if u=3D11 if all other bits have a =
recognizable=20
- For addresses that aren't subject to SLAAC like, for instance, those =
of inter-router links of RFC6164, the RFC4291 structure of /64 IIDs =
isn't applicable. A clarification on this would IMHO be useful.


Now, a new point:
The sentence of RFC 4291 about future technologies ((*) above) is, in my =
understanding and if taken rigorously, less open than it can be =
concerning future technologies. It is sufficient that IIDs of new =
technologies using u=3D1 have a universally recognizable structure. =
There IID scopes can have a non-universal scope without breaking =
anything. Your draft can be a place to clarify this.

Note that this point is made in general, as a contribution to clarify =
the u/g issue, not because it would concern 4rd. IIDs of 4rd are  =
universally unique (each one contains a globally unique IPv4 address, =
plus a CNP field which has different values for all CEs that share this =
address).

All currently specified randomizations concern IIDs that have u=3D0. =
None can conflict with formats  specified for u=3D1 IIDs.

I've read the draft.

Quote:  It should be noted that IIDs known or guessed to have been created
   according to RFC 4941 could be transformed back into MAC addresses,
   for example during fault diagnosis.  For that reason, keeping the "u"
   and "g" bits in the IID has operational value.  Therefore, the EUI-64
   to IPv6 IID transformation defined in RFC 4941 MUST be used for all
   cases where an IID is derived from a MAC address.


Dumb question: I don't get this. 4941 is "privacy extensions for SLAAC"
and generates random IIDs with u=0.
How can you "transform" a privacy extension for SLAAC IID back to a MAC
address?

IMHO The only combination that has operational value for the purpose of
mapping IPv6 address to MAC today is:
u==1 && g==0 && (concatenated with unicast IPv6/64 prefix[2000::/3] ||
link local address [fe80::/10]) && SLAAC (RFC4862)

We've never had this sort of reverse mapping in IPv4, and "sh arp" on
the local router was generally considered good enough operationally
speaking.
I 'd presume "show ipv6 neighbor binding" would also suffice.

Different understanding.

Making the reservation for one design, experimental or not, is a =
guarantee that no future design with conflict with it, experimental or =
not.

A central registry is the appropriate tool for this.

Comments below. Disclaimer: I am not a crypto guy :-)

Regards, K.

In the Abstract: I don't think the word "organitionally" exists. If it
does it is so unusual that it should be replaced with a more common word
or with a description of what the word means.

CGA were not designed to address privacy related attacks, they are a
means of securing NDP exchanges. The fact that they appear random is
coincidental to their function.

Introduction: Either always use leading zeros in your example values, or
never, but don't mix them. I suggest that always using leading zeros
would be better.

MAC should always be capitalised: "MAC", not "Mac", throughout.

In your description of how an EUI-64 IID is formed, you have omitted the
need to complement bit7 of the IID.

The introduction repeats the error in the abstract, that CGA addresses
are "used to randomize the IID".

There are places where necessary spaces have been omitted:
"[RFC3315]can", "approachfor".

The sentence beginning "This convention..." is unnecessary.

In the problem statement, the second sentence should read "...easy for
an attacker to track that node as it moves between networks." Or
similar, but it is unclear as it stands.

"If one wants to use a secure method, with the privacy extension, then
one needs to use CGA." Can one use CGA with privacy addressing? That is,
can you have CGA addresses that change regularly, as privacy addresses
do? I'm not sure.

Spell check everything ("Deniel of Service", "deminished", etc)

"In order to overcome the problem with the other mechanisms,[...]" What
other mechanisms? Isn't this just a problem with CGA?

"the time is needed to generate and verify IP address needs to be
decreased" -> "the time required to generate and verify IP addresses
needs to be reduced"

In 2.1.1.3 there is an odd character in "victim?s", should be
"victim's". The same odd character appears in other places.

In 2.1.1.3 suggest that the first SHOULD should be MAY.
 
In 2.1.1.3, it is unclear whether the formula is provided as a helpful
hint, or whether this is the formula that should be used. Why a 2-minute
window? I suggest using language similar to other RFCs in similar
situations, e.g. "To mitigate such an attack, a node SHOULD rate limit
message verification. Implementations MUST provide a conservative
default and SHOULD provide a way for the rate limiting parameters to be
set by the node administrator."

2.1.2 should provide an explanation of why SSAS is helpful in nodes with
limited resources. It appears that it is not helpful per se, but is
helpful *in comparison to CGA*, because of the lower computational load.
An explanation is also needed for why SSAS is useful in mobile networks.

In the first para of section 3: Compute load is only a problem with CGA.
Privacy is only a problem with SLAAC (and maybe with CGA if a node uses
the same 64-bit CGA IID on multiple networks). This introductory
paragraph seems to just restate what has already been said elsewhere and
could probably be dropped anyway.

3.1 step 2: There is no need to specify XML or any other particular
storage method, format or location. These can be left to the
implementation. All that is necessary is that these items be stored
where they will survive for the length of time a particular key pair
will be in use. You need to address the situation where a node has no
such storage.

3.1 step 2 second para: The use of should and SHOULD is confusing.
Should a node generate new keys? If it does, should it use them? If it
isn't going to use them, why generate them? What happens when a new
address is generated - is it used alongside the old one or are current
connections using the old address dropped immediately? The loss of
active connections when an address changes might be worth mentioning
somewhere.

3.1 step 2: Either the encryption algorithms used must be stipulated, or
there must be some mechanism for the verifier to know what method was
used by the sender.

3.1 step 3: What is "a fixed point format"? Needs explanation. If there
is more than one possible "fixed point format" then the specific one
used by SSAS must be specified.

3.1 step 5: Why is a whole byte needed to store a value from 0 to 20?
Have you done the maths to check that this value will actually
meaningfully "[help] randomize the IID and [...] minimize the chance of
a collision in the network"? If the benefit is not significant, then
this step should be omitted.

3.1 step 10 "this IP will be permanent after..." This contradicts
earlier recommendations that the IP be changed after a certain period.

3.2 This needs to be clearer. It seems that you are describing the
components of the NDP message that will be signed, not items that will
actually be included in the signature. Either way, it seems to me that a
list of components should be provided for each NDP message type that
requires signing, with a default to cover all others and any that have
not yet been invented.

3.3 How does a recipient know whether a message is SEND+SSAS or just
SEND?

3.3.1: Length is described as including certain fields; the description
does NOT include certain other fields, such as subnet prefix, other
options. It seems to me that length can simply be described as "the
length of the signature data field". Might be an idea to specify the
units, eg "length in octets".

3.3.1 Padding would be more simply described by saying that "if the
above values do not form an SSAS signature field that is an exact
multiple of eight octets long, random octets are added to the end of the
signature field to bring its length up to an exact multiple of eight
octets." Or octets with the binary value zero, or whatever.

3.3.1: "If, for a second time, the node receives the same claim, then it
considers it an attack and will use that IP address." Why? And why two?
Is this because no two nodes should ever be able to generate the same
address? If so, then either one try is sufficient, or arbitrarily many
will be insufficient.

4: This seems to need a bit of bulking out. Also, the discussion of
trust anchors is unclear - what, if any, place do trust anchors have in
SSAS? Might be worth discussing how shorter key validity periods affect
the likelihood of a successful attack.

5. Is that an IAN consideration?

6. This section repeats the error that CGA is about randomising IIDs. It
is not, that's a side effect at best.

And to state the obvious, that implies that u==g==1 means we are looking 
at an identifier derived from a hardware-based identifier (e.g., IEEE).

The assumption that 0xFFFE will be in the identifier is incorrect.  That 
pattern is only inserted when the 64-bit IID is generated from a 48-bit 
IEEE identifier.  If I use a 64-bit IEEE identifier, the u bit will be 
set to 1, but the 0xFFFE pattern will (most likely) not be there.

I have a problem with any assumption that u=1 => global uniqueness, or
u=1 => IEEE EUI64 with IEEE administered OUI.

Carefully reading RFC4291 I come up with the following:

Quote: "Modified EUI-64 format-based interface identifiers may have
universal
   scope when derived from a universal token (e.g., IEEE 802 48-bit MAC
   or IEEE EUI-64 identifiers [EUI64])"

Note the "may" and note the "e.g."

Quote: "EUI64 *format*"

Note the complete absence of text like "when u=1, the IID SHOULD/MUST be
formed from an IEEE EUI64, including a globally unique OUI portion
administered by the IEEE."

I therefore openly question any assumptions regarding the IEEE as being
defined as the sole and exclusive source of "universal tokens" in the
IPv6 addressing architecture.

If another standards body built a link technology based on EUI64
*format* identifiers, but with their own OUI administration, that should
never be a problem for IPv6, because RFC4291 only requires IID's to be
"unique within a subnet prefix." They are not required to be globally
unique across all link technologies. This is backed up by another quote
from RFC4291: "The details of forming interface identifiers are defined
in the appropriate "IPv6 over <link>" specification"


Even the IEEE definition of EUI64 in
http://standards.ieee.org/develop/regauth/tut/eui64.pdf states

Quote "When an EUI-64 is used within the context of an IEEE standard,
the standard shall be reviewed by the IEEE RAC for correctness and
clarity. When an EUI-64 is referenced within non-IEEE standards, there
shall not be any reference to IEEE unless approved by the IEEE RAC."

Was this coupling of standards ever reviewed by the IEEE?

Because it seems to me that the lack of universally clear handling of
the u=1 g=1 case in IETF documents would not fit with the existing IEEE
definition of EUI64, where u=1 g=1 is clearly a globally administered
multicast address, and is not available for any other use.



So my conclusion is that any coupling between IEEE and IETF standards
should be weak at most, and also limited to individual links.

Yes, even if it make no sense.

Or of course that we are looking at an arbitrarily invented IID that means
nothing in particular. Who's to say?

Agreed. (My apologies for how my phrase was worded.. "English as second

nicely).

Agreed, but the text notes that "that is so that it is easier for
manually-configured addresses" -- i.e.,  the text notes that the idea is
that manually-configured addresses don't "overap" with the
automatically-configured ones..

I fully agree. That's the point I was trying to make.

I guess the current "MUST" could be changed to "MAY" -- i.e., setting
the bit to zero might still help to reduce collisions with IEEE-derived
IIDs.

HOwever, this discussion raises yet another (more) interesting question:
considering the predictability properties of IEEE-derived IIDs, and the
fact that you cannot even assume that such identifiers are unique, why
are we using that scheme as the default mechanism for generating SLAAC
addresses in the first place? :-)

Thanks!

The point is that if't an experiment, you don't really want to
permanently-asign any resources to it. -- that's probably why run
suggested a "shared allocation".

If the experiment turns out to be successful, you get the actual assignment.

As answered to Ran:
- Making the reservation for one design, experimental or not, is a =
guarantee that no future design will conflict with it, experimental or =
not.
- A central registry is the appropriate tool for this.

Besides reserving 1/2^14 of the unused space, for which there hasn't =
been any request in more than 6 years now, shouldn't be considered a big =
deal (IMHO).

I support that IIDs that have u=3D1 MAY be used to extract some =
meaningful information, doing it or not remaining a vendor choice.

Pending any new IID reservations, what is possible is AFAIK the =
following:=20
- At an Ethernet interface, if an assigned IID has  u=3D1, u=3D0, bits =
24-39 =3D 0xFE, and OUI bits 0-24 aren't 00-00-5E  (the IANA OUI, ref =
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5342#section-1.2.1), then the MAC address =
should be that of IID bits 0-23 followed by  bits 40-127.

If the 4rd reserved IID prefix is confirmed to be 0x0300, this is =
complemented with the following:
- At a customer site entry that is assigned an IPv6 prefix up to /64, if =
an destination IID starts with 0x0300, then IID bits 16-47 should be =
those of a global IPv4 address usable in this site, exclusively or =
shared depending on which 4rd CE mapping rule applies to the site. In =
addition, IID bits 48-64 should be the opposite of the one's complement =
sum of the five 16-bit fields from address bits 0-79. =20

How could you possible ensure such uniqueness without coordination?
(i.e., how can you ensure uniqueness if several non-cooperating
organizations are generating OUIS with u=1?)

This is OK because RFC 4291 says "For ALL UNICAST ADDRESSES, except =
those that start with the binary value 000, Interface IDs are required =
to be 64 bits long and to be constructed in Modified EUI-64 format" =
(upper-cases added).=20
This implies that IIDs that have u=3D0 belong to those that have the =
"Modified EUI-64 format".

The point is that it is the opposite that is said: EUI-64 derived IIDs =
are  NOT the only ones having the "Modified EUI-64 format" (see above).=20=

Agreement on this.

Yes, but nay other link technology (none is defined so far AFAIK) would =
have to comply with  what RFC 4291 says "Modified EUI-64 format-based =
interface identifiers may have universal scope when derived from a =
universal token (e.g., IEEE 802 48-bit MAC or IEEE EUI-64 identifiers".
The "e.g." in this sentence implies that significance of the u bit isn't =
limited to EUI-64 derived IIDs.

This has no implication on universally reserved IID structures of the =
future, provided they have u=3D1 and are unambiguously distinguishable =
from that EUI-64 derived IIDs.

Misunderstanding.
U=3Dg=3D1 does remain AVAILABLE for new IID structures because multicast =
addresses you refer to aren't concerned with the Modified EUI-64 format.=20=

They have 112-bit Group IDs as opposed to 64-bit Interface IDs (refs. =
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4291#section-2.7) and =
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4291#section-2.5).=20

Limited to links, YES.
Weak, NO REASON.

I a not clear what aspect of the semantics of u==1 and the relationship 
to EUI-64 is a dead duck.  Currently, if you see something with u==1, 
you know it was made from an EUI-64.  Under your proposal, you would not 
know that.
Yous tae below tat the presence of ==1 doesn't mean that.  to the best 
of my knowledge, currently, it does mean that.  It may not be derived 
from the EUI-64 of the interface yo want to reach, but it is derived 
from an EUI-64.  Otherwise, u would be set to 0.

You are proposing to change this rule.

Aside from anything else, I do not see a motivation for changing the rule.
I have no problem with clarifying under-specified corner cases.
But why change the rule we have?  Is there a problem with the current 
rule that I am missing?

Yours,
Joel

You can't at a global/ multi-link level. But for IPv6, why should the
IETF care? All RFC4291 really cares about AFAIK is that the IID acts as
a tie breaker per link. It's not as though any competing LAN/Link
standards are going to be sharing a single L2 network.

If VMware come up with a virtual "Wizzinet" to connect virtual routers
and virtual end nodes, and they coordinate the IID's to be "unique
enough" per link, and they use EUI64 format addressing, but not OUI's
administered by the IEEE, what's the problem? You're not going to plug a
physical Ethernet cable into a virtual link.

Speaking with an operational hat on, I'd rather have access to tools and
protocols that can perform mapping/registration of e.g. DUID <=> L3 <=>
L2 bindings, such as
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dhc-addr-registration, rather
than any fixed transformations or encoding.  Although it's not problem
free, at least we could then concentrate on ensuring DUID uniqueness in
whatever scope we were concerned about. And it covers self-generated
privacy addresses too. And potentially MAC spoofing/ locally
administered addresses. Rather than relying on static addressing
administered by some other standards body and which is reliant on good
behaviour by all participants. As I'm sure you're aware, operations are
rapidly moving to virtual machines and devices, and dedicated network
hardware with a burned-in interface ID is disappearing.

>In the Abstract: I don't think the word "organitionally" exists. If it does
it is so unusual that it should be replaced with a more common word or with
a description of what the word means.

Ok, I will correct it in next version. Maybe I created a new English word...
who knows ;-)  How about "organizationally"?

> CGA were not designed to address privacy related attacks, they are a means
of securing NDP exchanges. The fact that they appear random is coincidental
to their function.

It is true that the main purpose was security, but it is not true that
privacy was not a consideration. You can find in many parts of the CGA RFC
(RFC 3972) where privacy is also mentioned. Some such sections are section
3, where it explains that the reason for the addition of a modifier is to
enhance privacy by adding randomness to the address and at the end of
section 4 and in section 7.3 where privacy considerations are clearly
explained.

>Introduction: Either always use leading zeros in your example values, or
never, but don't mix them. I suggest that always using leading zeros would
be better.

Good point. I will do this.

>MAC should always be capitalised: "MAC", not "Mac", throughout.

Will correct this  in the next version.

>In your description of how an EUI-64 IID is formed, you have omitted the
need to complement bit7 of the IID.

You mean bits u and g (both 7 and 8). I'll add it.  Of course these two bits
are a matter for discussion in Brian's draft :-)

>The introduction repeats the error in the abstract, that CGA addresses are
"used to randomize the IID".

In RFC Privacy Extension (section 3.2.3) and also CGA RFC (in stated
sections), it also mentioned CGA as an approach to randomize IID

>There are places where necessary spaces have been omitted:
>"[RFC3315]can", "approachfor".

The problem of my "spacebar" in keyboard, sometimes doesn't work and....
thx. I'll fix it in next version

>The sentence beginning "This convention..." is unnecessary.

I'll remove it

>In the problem statement, the second sentence should read "...easy for an
attacker to track that node as it moves between networks." Or similar, but
it is unclear as it stands.

Yes true. I'll update it.

>"If one wants to use a secure method, with the privacy extension, then one
needs to use CGA." Can one use CGA with privacy addressing? That is, can you
have CGA addresses that change regularly, as privacy addresses do? I'm not
sure.

Yes you can. Please see my first response.

> Spell check everything ("Deniel of Service", "deminished", etc)

Ops... Ok, I'll correct it in next version.

>"In order to overcome the problem with the other mechanisms,[...]" What
other mechanisms? Isn't this just a problem with CGA?

True, maybe I will have to rephrase the sentence. I wanted to address both
privacy related attacks (privacy extension RFC) and also the problem with
CGA.

>"the time is needed to generate and verify IP address needs to be
decreased" -> "the time required to generate and verify IP addresses needs
to be reduced"

>In 2.1.1.3 there is an odd character in "victim?s", should be "victim's".
The same odd character appears in other places.

? will be replaced with ' .

> In 2.1.1.3 suggest that the first SHOULD should be MAY.

I'll correct it.
 
>In 2.1.1.3, it is unclear whether the formula is provided as a helpful
hint, or whether this is the formula that should be used. Why a 2-minute
window? I suggest using language similar to other RFCs in >similar
situations, e.g. "To mitigate such an attack, a node SHOULD rate limit
message verification. Implementations MUST provide a conservative default
and SHOULD provide a way for the rate >limiting parameters to be set by the
node administrator."

Good suggestion! I will apply it.

>2.1.2 should provide an explanation of why SSAS is helpful in nodes with
limited resources. It appears that it is not helpful per se, but is helpful
*in comparison to CGA*, because of the lower >computational load.
>An explanation is also needed for why SSAS is useful in mobile networks.

I will clarify this section. 

>In the first para of section 3: Compute load is only a problem with CGA.
>Privacy is only a problem with SLAAC (and maybe with CGA if a node uses the
same 64-bit CGA IID on multiple networks). This introductory paragraph seems
to just restate what has already been said >elsewhere and could probably be
dropped anyway.

Ok I will correct it.

>3.1 step 2: There is no need to specify XML or any other particular storage
method, format or location. These can be left to the implementation. All
that is necessary is that these items be stored where >they will survive for
the length of time a particular key pair will be in use. You need to address
the situation where a node has no such storage.

I think I really saw it from the implementers' point of view. You are right.
I will change it.

>3.1 step 2 second para: The use of should and SHOULD is confusing.
>Should a node generate new keys? If it does, should it use them? If it
isn't going to use them, why generate them? What happens when a new address
is generated - is it used alongside the old one or >are current connections
using the old address dropped immediately? The loss of active connections
when an address changes might be worth mentioning somewhere.

The old IP address status is changed to deprecated. This means the node will
not use it for the new connection but it can continue using it for the old
connections. 
When the node generates a new IP address, it should also re-generate
public/private keys because of the privacy concerns.

> 3.1 step 2: Either the encryption algorithms used must be stipulated, or
there must be some mechanism for the verifier to know what method was used
by the sender.

I will add a bit to the SSAS data structure in order to distinguish between
RSA and ECC or other faster algorithms of the future.

> 3.1 step 3: What is "a fixed point format"? Needs explanation. If there is
more than one possible "fixed point format" then the specific one used by
SSAS must be specified.

I explained in the draft that we are using the same format as RFC SEND.

> 3.1 step 5: Why is a whole byte needed to store a value from 0 to 20?
>Have you done the maths to check that this value will actually meaningfully
"[help] randomize the IID and [...] minimize the chance of a collision in
the network"? If the benefit is not significant, then >this step should be
omitted.

Yes , it does.

>3.1 step 10 "this IP will be permanent after..." This contradicts earlier
recommendations that the IP be changed after a certain period.

I meant the status of the IP address. The first status will be temporary and
if no collisions are found the status will change to permanent. The 3
statuses for an IP address are deprecated, temporary and permanent. This
defines how the IP address can be used at the start of new connections or
its use in existing connections. Each IP address has a lifetime. When the
lifetime of the IP address has expired, the node changes the status of the
IP address to deprecated. 
I will add the status and add this explanation to the new version.

>3.2 This needs to be clearer. It seems that you are describing the
components of the NDP message that will be signed, not items that will
actually be included in the signature. Either way, it seems to me >that a
list of components should be provided for each NDP message type that
requires signing, with a default to cover all others and any that have not
yet been invented.

True. Maybe instead of NDP, I have to change it to SEND. Then it might be
clearer.

>  3.3 How does a recipient know whether a message is SEND+SSAS or just
SEND?

In SSAS, just the RSA signature is different than the RSA signature section
of SEND. I will think about using another type, like type=16, for SSAS Data
field (signature and...).

>3.3.1: Length is described as including certain fields; the description
does NOT include certain other fields, such as subnet prefix, other options.
It seems to me that length can simply be described as >"the length of the
signature data field". Might be an idea to specify the units, eg "length in
octets".

Good suggestion.

>3.3.1 Padding would be more simply described by saying that "if the above
values do not form an SSAS signature field that is an exact multiple of
eight octets long, random octets are added to the end >of the signature
field to bring its length up to an exact multiple of eight octets." Or
octets with the binary value zero, or whatever.

Good suggestion.

>3.3.1: "If, for a second time, the node receives the same claim, then it
considers it an attack and will use that IP address." Why? And why two?
>Is this because no two nodes should ever be able to generate the same
address? If so, then either one try is sufficient, or arbitrarily many will
be insufficient.

There have been no proven collisions using SHA256. Also, it will be a very
rare case when two nodes choose the same modifier and even rarer If, after a
node increments the modifier after the first collision, another node will
have the IP address. 

> 4: This seems to need a bit of bulking out. Also, the discussion of trust
anchors is unclear - what, if any, place do trust anchors have in SSAS?
Might be worth discussing how shorter key validity periods > affect the
likelihood of a successful attack.

I will clarify the section describing trust anchors. About successful
attacks, in practice, it is not like theoretical proofs; the probability is
very low. I obtained that mathematical proof by finding the expected value
for 2 days, 10 days, and also 20 days... . 

>5. Is that an IAN consideration?
 
It might be.

>6. This section repeats the error that CGA is about randomising IIDs. It is
not, that's a side effect at best.

Please refer to my first response


Thank you. I really cannot understand how I made so many spelling mistakes,
especially when I had a text correctors in front of me... :-/ or perhaps
sleepy!?

Only the u bit is complemented, the g bit is untouched.

In any case, draft-carpenter-6man-ug doesn't change or abolish this.

Only because it's supported by DAD, surely? There is no piece of magic
that absolutely prevents two hosts claiming the same IID.

Actually, you don't. You know that it looks as if it was made in
Modified EUI-64 format, but you don't know that there is a genuine
MAC address behind it. You can apply heuristics (like "Is 0xFFFE
present?" and "Is the OUI an IEEE-assigned value?") but that's all.

Also, u==0 does not imply that it is not Modified EUI-64. The examples
in RFC 4291 all use EUI-64 with u==0, i.e. Modified EUI-64 with u==1,
but those are only examples.

In the end all you have is 64 meaningless bits, as far as I can tell.

well, not entirely meaningless, eh? :)  we do line packets to go back and
forth.

i hate to sound like a broken record, but magic bits are almost never
worth the pain.

Same understanding.
u=3D1 has a meaning that shouldn't be negated now.

The rule concerning the u=3D1 can advantageously be completed with new =
uses (provided they don't conflict wit previous uses).

Actually, I don't think that is what the draft proposes. What it proposes=

is that we delete the fiction that the bit has any meaning after it arriv=
es
in an IID. It seems to be that fiction that causes confusion, not the
rule about how to generate Modified EUI-64 format from a MAC address.

Quoting a wise colleague, "magic bits are almost never worth the pain."

To say it again in different words, u=3D=3D1 does not prove that an IID i=
s
universally unique and u=3D=3D0 does not prove that an IID is locally uni=
que.
So it's fine to specify methods for generating the u bit, but it is
incorrect to draw firm conclusions based on its value.

What "uniqueness" is strictly required for correct operation of IPv6?
If the competing technologies can never share an L2 link, what's the
problem?

IMVHO We should be careful what semantics we import from other standards
bodies, and only do this explicitly.

Looking at various alternatives for the semantics of IETF defined flags:

u = deprecated. EUI64 MAY be used in generation of IIDs. DAD SHOULD be
performed for all unicast addresses.
A distinct possibility in my book. Reasoning: IIDs are only tie breakers
per link. Collisions happen. Deal with it.

u==1 => derived from one (of potentially many) mapping schemes based on
a universal token, and therefore nodes MAY skip performing DAD on all
link types.
Also seems reasonable. Some might even think useful.

u==1 && g==0  => IEEE EUI64 with IEEE registered OUI on all link technology
Is probably too much (and unnecessary for correct functioning of IPv6 AFAIK)
Do we really want to tell everyone who wants to produce links that
supports IPv6 that they should obtain an OUI from the IEEE, or force
them to use u=0 when generating addresses? What value does this
restriction add for the IETF?

u == 1 && g==0 => IEEE EUI64 with IEEE registered OUI, but only for IPv6
unicast addresses and only on IEEE-defined link technology.
Would be fine by me, and current practice AFAIK

u==1 && g==1 => reserved for future use by the IETF for generating
addresses on all technologies for both unicast and multicast
Is currently a possibility. I wouldn't object.


Beyond that, if you want a Universally Unique Identifier you should
probably be looking at rfc4122, rather than abusing/re-using IID's for
this function.

I presume I am misunderstanding you Brian.
You seem to be saying that because some liet coul violate the spec, and 
set u==1 on something that did not come from an EUI-64 on that device, 
then it ollows that the spec is meaningless.
It is true for almost all our specs tat they can be ignored, bent, or 
violated, and mostly, things still work.
That does not make the specs or their requirements meaningless.

The fact that you can make a u==0 IID from anything you want is 
irrelevant to the question of what u==1 means.

Is there an implementation in the real world that is violating the spec 
by generating u==1 from something other than EUI values?  I wuld be very 
surprised, but if you know of such, and there is a reason they di it, 
that would e useful information.

As far as I can tell, all of the confusion regarding the spec has been 
in what else we are allowed to specify.  So having a clearer spec would 
help us.  But that, by itself, even with pithy quotes, is not a reason 
to change an existing IETF agreement.

Is there a problem with the current rules?

Yours,
Joel

To a significant degree Randy, I agree with you in your comment about 
magic bits.  If I were designing IPv6 from scratch (counter-factual in 
so may ways at once) I would not do it that way.

But, unless there is an actual problem with the design the IETF has 
adopted, I am reluctant to change it "just because".

Yours,
Joel

any running code.

changing the spec solve?

If it prevents someone from ascribing new utility to these bit(s) in the 
future that seems like a worthwhile goal. While I'm sure that we can 
come up with new and different was to apply meaning to global unicast 
addresses I think the world is a simpler place when we don't.

Ok, I will correct it in next version. Maybe I created a new English word...
who knows ;-)  How about "organizationally"?

> CGA were not designed to address privacy related attacks, they are a means

to their function.

It is true that the main purpose was security, but it is not true that
privacy was not a consideration. You can find in many parts of the CGA RFC
(RFC 3972) where privacy is also mentioned. Some such sections are section
3, where it explains that the reason for the addition of a modifier is to
enhance privacy by adding randomness to the address and at the end of
section 4 and in section 7.3 where privacy considerations are clearly
explained.

>Introduction: Either always use leading zeros in your example values, or
never, but don't mix them. I suggest that always using leading zeros would
be better.

Good point. I will do this.

>MAC should always be capitalised: "MAC", not "Mac", throughout.

Will correct this  in the next version.

>In your description of how an EUI-64 IID is formed, you have omitted the
need to complement bit7 of the IID.

You mean bits u and g (both 7 and 8). I'll add it.  Of course these two bits
are a matter for discussion in Brian's draft :-)

>The introduction repeats the error in the abstract, that CGA addresses are
"used to randomize the IID".

In RFC Privacy Extension (section 3.2.3) and also CGA RFC (in stated
sections), it also mentioned CGA as an approach to randomize IID

>There are places where necessary spaces have been omitted:
>"[RFC3315]can", "approachfor".

The problem of my "spacebar" in keyboard, sometimes doesn't work and....
thx. I'll fix it in next version

>The sentence beginning "This convention..." is unnecessary.

I'll remove it

>In the problem statement, the second sentence should read "...easy for an
attacker to track that node as it moves between networks." Or similar, but
it is unclear as it stands.

Yes true. I'll update it.

>"If one wants to use a secure method, with the privacy extension, then one
needs to use CGA." Can one use CGA with privacy addressing? That is, can you
have CGA addresses that change regularly, as privacy addresses do? I'm not
sure.

Yes you can. Please see my first response.

> Spell check everything ("Deniel of Service", "deminished", etc)

Ops... Ok, I'll correct it in next version.

>"In order to overcome the problem with the other mechanisms,[...]" What
other mechanisms? Isn't this just a problem with CGA?

True, maybe I will have to rephrase the sentence. I wanted to address both
privacy related attacks (privacy extension RFC) and also the problem with
CGA.

>"the time is needed to generate and verify IP address needs to be
decreased" -> "the time required to generate and verify IP addresses needs
to be reduced"

>In 2.1.1.3 there is an odd character in "victim?s", should be "victim's".
The same odd character appears in other places.

? will be replaced with ' .

> In 2.1.1.3 suggest that the first SHOULD should be MAY.

I'll correct it.
 
>In 2.1.1.3, it is unclear whether the formula is provided as a helpful
hint, or whether this is the formula that should be used. Why a 2-minute
window? I suggest using language similar to other RFCs in >similar
situations, e.g. "To mitigate such an attack, a node SHOULD rate limit
message verification. Implementations MUST provide a conservative default
and SHOULD provide a way for the rate >limiting parameters to be set by the
node administrator."

Good suggestion! I will apply it.

>2.1.2 should provide an explanation of why SSAS is helpful in nodes with
limited resources. It appears that it is not helpful per se, but is helpful
*in comparison to CGA*, because of the lower >computational load.
>An explanation is also needed for why SSAS is useful in mobile networks.

I will clarify this section. 

>In the first para of section 3: Compute load is only a problem with CGA.
>Privacy is only a problem with SLAAC (and maybe with CGA if a node uses the
same 64-bit CGA IID on multiple networks). This introductory paragraph seems
to just restate what has already been said >elsewhere and could probably be
dropped anyway.

Ok I will correct it.

>3.1 step 2: There is no need to specify XML or any other particular storage
method, format or location. These can be left to the implementation. All
that is necessary is that these items be stored where >they will survive for
the length of time a particular key pair will be in use. You need to address
the situation where a node has no such storage.

I think I really saw it from the implementers' point of view. You are right.
I will change it.

>3.1 step 2 second para: The use of should and SHOULD is confusing.
>Should a node generate new keys? If it does, should it use them? If it
isn't going to use them, why generate them? What happens when a new address
is generated - is it used alongside the old one or >are current connections
using the old address dropped immediately? The loss of active connections
when an address changes might be worth mentioning somewhere.

The old IP address status is changed to deprecated. This means the node will
not use it for the new connection but it can continue using it for the old
connections. 
When the node generates a new IP address, it should also re-generate
public/private keys because of the privacy concerns.

> 3.1 step 2: Either the encryption algorithms used must be stipulated, or
there must be some mechanism for the verifier to know what method was used
by the sender.

I will add a bit to the SSAS data structure in order to distinguish between
RSA and ECC or other faster algorithms of the future.

> 3.1 step 3: What is "a fixed point format"? Needs explanation. If there is
more than one possible "fixed point format" then the specific one used by
SSAS must be specified.

I explained in the draft that we are using the same format as RFC SEND.

> 3.1 step 5: Why is a whole byte needed to store a value from 0 to 20?
>Have you done the maths to check that this value will actually meaningfully
"[help] randomize the IID and [...] minimize the chance of a collision in
the network"? If the benefit is not significant, then >this step should be
omitted.

Yes , it does.

>3.1 step 10 "this IP will be permanent after..." This contradicts earlier
recommendations that the IP be changed after a certain period.

I meant the status of the IP address. The first status will be temporary and
if no collisions are found the status will change to permanent. The 3
statuses for an IP address are deprecated, temporary and permanent. This
defines how the IP address can be used at the start of new connections or
its use in existing connections. Each IP address has a lifetime. When the
lifetime of the IP address has expired, the node changes the status of the
IP address to deprecated. 
I will add the status and add this explanation to the new version.

>3.2 This needs to be clearer. It seems that you are describing the
components of the NDP message that will be signed, not items that will
actually be included in the signature. Either way, it seems to me >that a
list of components should be provided for each NDP message type that
requires signing, with a default to cover all others and any that have not
yet been invented.

True. Maybe instead of NDP, I have to change it to SEND. Then it might be
clearer.

>  3.3 How does a recipient know whether a message is SEND+SSAS or just
SEND?

In SSAS, just the RSA signature is different than the RSA signature section
of SEND. I will think about using another type, like type=16, for SSAS Data
field (signature and...).

>3.3.1: Length is described as including certain fields; the description
does NOT include certain other fields, such as subnet prefix, other options.
It seems to me that length can simply be described as >"the length of the
signature data field". Might be an idea to specify the units, eg "length in
octets".

Good suggestion.

>3.3.1 Padding would be more simply described by saying that "if the above
values do not form an SSAS signature field that is an exact multiple of
eight octets long, random octets are added to the end >of the signature
field to bring its length up to an exact multiple of eight octets." Or
octets with the binary value zero, or whatever.

Good suggestion.

>3.3.1: "If, for a second time, the node receives the same claim, then it
considers it an attack and will use that IP address." Why? And why two?
>Is this because no two nodes should ever be able to generate the same
address? If so, then either one try is sufficient, or arbitrarily many will
be insufficient.

There have been no proven collisions using SHA256. Also, it will be a very
rare case when two nodes choose the same modifier and even rarer If, after a
node increments the modifier after the first collision, another node will
have the IP address. 

> 4: This seems to need a bit of bulking out. Also, the discussion of trust
anchors is unclear - what, if any, place do trust anchors have in SSAS?
Might be worth discussing how shorter key validity periods > affect the
likelihood of a successful attack.

I will clarify the section describing trust anchors. About successful
attacks, in practice, it is not like theoretical proofs; the probability is
very low. I obtained that mathematical proof by finding the expected value
for 2 days, 10 days, and also 20 days... . 

>5. Is that an IAN consideration?
 
It might be.

>6. This section repeats the error that CGA is about randomising IIDs. It is
not, that's a side effect at best.

Please refer to my first response


Thank you. I really cannot understand how I made so many spelling mistakes,
especially when I had a text correctors in front of me... :-/ or perhaps
sleepy!?

KISS is always a good approach - Keep It Stupid Simple, or Simple Stupid.

(or in short, special meaning attached to bits seems to cause more
confusion than good)


And on the topic of DAD vs assume uniqueness - I learned this from an
earlier colleague
"To Assume is to make an Ass out of you and Me"

I can find many reasons to remove the magic from the U and G bits. I person=
ally ran into the U/G bit issues in RFC 4380 (Teredo) and  RFC 6052 (IPv4-e=
mbedded IPv6 addresses). In both cases, the design would have been simpler =
if we had not try to maintain the fiction of the U and G bits. And CGA coul=
d definitely benefit from 2 additional bits of entropy. So this is not a ch=
ange "just because."=20

a prospective implementor looks at ipv6 and sees a whole bunch of twisty
passages of useless second system syndrome.  there are more damn options
than the chicago mercantile exchange.  and as there is no *strong* pull
from the market, all our pleas do not transform income you can sell to
your management.

when multiple layers of ipv4 nat is financially more attractive than our
product, we have a very serious problem.  we need to wipe the lipstick
off the pig and start selling straightforward port chops.

except i fear it is far too late.

=> +1 on CGA and Teredo. I never agreed/understood the need for u/g bits.
The concept was flawed IMHO. I respect the questioning of timing but on
principle those two flags are a bad idea.

> I can find many reasons to remove the magic from the U and G bits. I personally ran into the U/G bit issues in RFC 4380 (Teredo) and  RFC 6052 (IPv4-embedded IPv6 addresses). In both cases, the design would have been simpler if we had not try to maintain the fiction of the U and G bits. And CGA could definitely benefit from 2 additional bits of entropy. So this is not a change "just because." 

Fully agreed.

Another point in favor of removing the magic: RFC 4291 explicitly says

"For all unicast addresses, except those that start with the binary
value 000, Interface IDs are required to be 64 bits long and to be
constructed in Modified EUI-64 format."

but later in the same chapter says

"IPv6 nodes are not required to validate that interface identifiers
created with modified EUI-64 tokens with the "u" bit set to universal
are unique."

And indeed, on the routers where I have tried, I am able to configure
static IPv6 addresses with no regard to the u/g bits.

In other words, any special meaning of the u/g bits is just fiction -
there is no enforcement or guarantee of any kind.

Right. The draft may be clumsily expressed so far, but that is the point.

I think we know how we have to improve the draft to make these things
more clear. Please give us a little time, since my co-author is on vacation
for the Chinese New Year holidays.

Serious disagreement with the extreme view that, today, the u bit has no =
meaning.
See (*) and (**) below.

Agreed.

But the u bit isn't "magic".=20
It is just a bit whose function has been specified (and used, see (*) =
below).

Agreed.

(*) It remains that IIDs having u=3D1 SHOULD be unique, i.e. with rare =
enough exceptions. This is somewhat similar to the expectation that ULA =
collisions shouldn't be seen).

This theoretical unicity has been extensively used to assign stable =
IIDs, without administrative action, to hosts  that have no privacy =
constraints requiring the opposite. =20

If our understanding differs on this, I suppose we should go further =
into it.=20


> and u=3D=3D0 does not prove that an IID is locally unique.

Agreed.

Disagreed.

Here is one "firm" conclusion, and a useful one AFAIK to "allow =
development of future technology that can take advantage of interface =
identifiers with universal scope":
(**) "All IIDs that comply with RFC 4291, that have u=3D1, and that are =
based on an IEEE MAC address, also have g=3D0 and bits 24-39 =3D 0xFE."
Disagreeing on this would need an explanation.


Conclusion: your ug draft, which is IMHO welcome to clarify what seems =
misunderstood, must be clear about issue (*) and (**) above, one way or =
another.

Steps backward without carefully checked justifications should be =
avoided.

RD

It depends on what is done with the new design, especially if it is =
backward compatible and optional.

The question that started this discussion is whether reserving a =
currently unused IID range having u=3D1  is compatible with the IPv6 =
addressing architecture (i.e. RFC 4291).=20
AFAICT, the answer is YES.
Changing RFC 4291 to make it become a NO would have consequences well =
beyond this new request.=20

Stupid.

Agreed.

> confusion than good)

- Not a consequence of KISS.
- Changing a specification without a pressing need, and although it has =
been used, isn't a way to increase confidence in any design. IPv6 needs =
confidence.

No one proposes to abandon DAD!
The point is that, while a specification *clarification* on u/g appears =
to be useful, specification *change* would be harmful.

Randy,=20

We have in common, as you know, the objective of IPv6 promotion, and =
that of NATs elimination as much as possible.

In this respect, changing now the IPv6 specification for hosts that =
configure IIDs having u=3D1, although no serious need has been =
identified, and this specification has ben used, would be in my =
understanding very counterproductive: stability of already used =
specifications is important for their success.

=3D> Concerning u/g bits:
- OK to clarify what can easily be misunderstood
- NOK to change the substance of the specification
Hope you can agree.

RD

I believe that the original question really was "whether it makes sense
to reserve an unused IID range for 4rd".

As noted by Ran Atkinson, since 4rd is an experimental document, it
seems more appropriate to separate a *shared* range for this kind of
experiment, rather than assign an IID range to 4rd.

It can't be a consideration, because in order for CGAs to serve their
purpose, nodes must be able to compute the IID. An IID that aims at
protecting user privacy works the other way around: a third-party should
not be able to compute the IID.

We currently do not deal with them.

With start with the (fictional) assumption that we can get unique
addresses if we based our IIDs on (allegedly) unique MAC addresses.

But e.g. virtualization software can generate duplicate mac addresses.

And in the presence of such failures, SLAAC/DAD fails (in some
implementations, when DAD fails for link-local address, you need to reboot)

Reality indicates that even when deemed as "unique", those tokens are
not really universal. So if you skip that, you might end up in a slaac
failure.

Therefore, in practice you cannot really skip that. And if DAD fails,
you must have some algorithm in place to solve the problem. Most likely,
such algorithm is going to generate some random ID of some sort... in
which case we should probably ask ourselves: why are we generating the
addresses with an embedded IEEE identifier for the first try, and with a
completely different scheme if DAD fails?

Agreed.

But... is there any value in continuing with this?

If anything, privacy should be an "opt out", rather as an "opt in".

In scenarios where privacy matters a lot, if our default policy is "no
privacy", those users "opting in" for privacy would be flagged as
"suspicious" just for the act of "opting in".

A 4rd reserved range, for 4rd activation to never require IPv6 =
renumbering, has been for long in the specification studied in Softwire.

Here is what Suresh said in the question to 6man:
"There were some concerns raised in softwire about whether such =
addresses are actually compatible with the IPv6 addressing architecture. =
Whether this is actually compatible with the IPv6 addressing =
architecture is outside the scope of the softwire wg. Hence we would =
like to hear the 6man wg's perspective on this."

As already answered to Ran:
"Making the reservation for one design, experimental or not, is a =
guarantee that no future design with conflict with it, experimental or =
not."
If you disagree, please explain.

In any case, this comment isn't about compatibility of the 4rd range =
with the IPv6 addressing architecture.=20

Indeed. That is not in any way proposed by the draft. Rather to the contr=

in fact, since one of the co-authors of 4rd is my co-author.

Please refer you to CGA RFC.

About SSAS: the purpose of this draft is to discuss the means of combining
or integrating privacy (layer 3) and security.

It can't be a consideration, because in order for CGAs to serve their
purpose, nodes must be able to compute the IID. An IID that aims at
protecting user privacy works the other way around: a third-party should not
be able to compute the IID.

But my understanding is that softwires didn't adopt 4rd?

If 4rd is published as "experimental", then it doesn't make sense to
permanently assign an address range to it.

We have several shared resources (ICMPv6 types, etc.) for experiments.
Why should this be an exception?

Such IIDs do not preserve privacy, so... are you suggesting that they
should not be the default algorithm for selecting IIDs with SLAAC?

I strongly disagree. For many reasons, including:

1) What's broken, is broken. And if it's known to be broken, it should
be fixed.

2) We do maintenance of widely-implemented, widely-deployed protocols.
So I'm not sure why we should be scared about changing stuff in v6
(particularly when we're still at a point in which the v6 traffic is
very small)

3) Whatever changes are needed should be done soon. The more we wait,
the more expensive they'll become.

It is awkward but not broken imho, so in this respect I would think =
twice
changing RFC4291. However, I do agree Randy about magic bits and the =
pain
involved. Actually, a lot IPv6 business recently has been around adding
magic to IPv6 addressing, which I kind of find uncomfortable..

My personal take on this is that we keep things as they are now. It =
would
be cool to have all IIDs as a binary blob but.. that does not give a =

to start changing the addressing architecture at this point.

Brian's document could be a good place to hash out the "confusing" =

4rd is adopted (on experimental track) under the only condition that =

See (*) below.

If 4rd is eventually deprecated, the range will be freed.
If it isn't deprecated, the range will remain reserved (which, as you =
know, is only 1/16384 of available IIDs having u=3Dg=3D1, i.e. nothing =
to be alarmed by).

If and when IPv4 is deprecated, the reservation will become meaningless.
As long as IPv4 isn't deprecated, any solution that has distinctive =
properties for IPv4 service across IPv6-only clouds, is relevant.=20

All other experiment, I suppose, had enough with what has been reserved =
so far.
As far as 4rd is concerned, it needs an IID range that cannot conflict =
with any host address that complies with RFC 4291.=20

One has to come with a proof that reserving u=3D1 for universally =

None has been seen.
OTPH, 4rd is the first instance that shows it can be beneficial beyond =
its current application to IEEE derived IIDs. =20

Different understanding.
To me, standard modifications need serious reasons, and much caution.

What software exists that makes determinations based on the u bit?

How would that software be impacted if the u bit were suddenly be devoid 
of meaning?

I am of course assuming that DAD would still be in play for dynamically 
assigned addresses, which it seems we are all in agreement on.

FWIW, my comment was in response of the general statement "stability of
already used specifications is important for their success".

Actually, I'm not opposed to "stable specifications", but about
resistance to change/fix/improve those things just because to maintain
the status quo.

Not sure what you mean. For instance,
draft-ietf-6man-stable-privacy-addresses doesn't change the
architecture, but simply is an alternative algorithm that fits in the
existing architecture.

Folks,

I was wondering what's the status of draft-ietf-6man-oversized-header-chain.

Was it ready to ship to the IESG? Or does it still need to be WGLC'ed?

FWIW, this I-D has been stable for a few months now, and quite a few
folks agreed that it was ready to progress.

Thanks!

Best regards,

Understand. But within this specific ug topic I am still not convinced
myself that what we have now is broken or would even need a facelift..

Your draft is just fine since it is by the RFC4291 rules. I should have
been more precise with my above comment, which was a generic comment =
about
the desire to specify something that ends up to a special IPv6 address
handling or configuration just because we have 'so many bits to play =
with'.

and 82.3% would not realize they needed to opt out.

i would think that, in general, across the ietf protocols, privacy
preservation would be the desired default.

Agreed. I have never understood why the default for this has always been 
"off." Given that most implementations have ignored the RFC(s) and 
enabled it by default anyway, I think it's time that we acknowledged 
reality (both in the sense of what people are doing, and in the sense 
that it's clearly working).

Erik, Igor,

as part of doing the writeup to the IESG. do you know of any =
implementations or plans for implementations
of impatient NUD?

cheers,

Hosts would become free to assign arbitrary IIDs having u=3D1, breaking =

Sure (agreement confirmed).


Hope it clarifies.

Impossible if the MAC addresses are indeed unique. That is correct for
*almost* all cases. But not 100%.

They are different 100% of cases at the IP layer if they are different =
at the MAC layer (which is needed for communication at this layer).
OK?

Not if the same MAC address appears on two different subnets in the same

immediately demonstrate that the u bit does not mathematically guarantee
uniqueness.

There has been discussion recently in MIF of scenarios where the same
IID would appear intentionally on different interfaces of the same device=
=2E

It is not the process of generating IIDs that is a problem - that is
well defined. It is assuming after they have been generated that the
u/g bits have meaning that is problematic. (Which is also why the
solution of a reserved range makes sense for 4rd.)

Bob,

It seems the general discussion on u/g-bits clarification is going to be =
long.

Fortunately it also appears, for instance in the following, that =
compatibility of the 4rd IID-range with the IPv6 addressing architecture =
doesn't depend on this work being completed.


2013-02-05  15:36, Brian E Carpenter <brian.e.carpenter@gmail.com> :

Unless I missed something conclusions that the 4rd IID range DOES NOT =
conflict with the IPv6 addressing architecture have been expressed by =
Brian Carpenter, Joel Halpern, Sheng Jiang, Gang Chen, and myself.

Several opinions against a 4rd-range reservation have also been =
expressed, but they concern the purpose of 4rd, or its experimental =
status, or personal feelings against one more specification. They are =
not about technical compatibility with the IPv6 addressing architecture.=20=


Keeping the 4rd answer separate from the general u/g bit discussion will =
permit, I hope, to now finalize this answer asap.=20

Best regards,
RD

Brian,

(a) The fact that IEEE MAC addresses are recycled by some vendors is =
well understood.
Please be sure I don't ignore it.

(b) I am also well convinced that u=3D1 isn't a "mathematical guarantee" =
of uniqueness.=20


To me, what is important is agreeing that the 4rd IID range makes sense.=20=

(Despite my understanding that the point I had made below isn't =
contradictory with (a) and (b) above, I see no point in arguing more =
about it.)

Thanks,
RD

Hi all,

My personal summary is as follows:
- The u/g bits have no real meaning in an IID (though the original
  intention  of mapping EUI-64/48 addresses as modified EUI-64 into the
  IID may have been to preserve their meaning), so using them as
  indicator for the presence of a particular "IID format" seems to
  be not a good idea (see Brian's draft as well as Randy's "magic bits
  are almost never worth the pain").

- I feel uncomfortable with reserving another range in the IID space
  for 4rd, since it is not clear what implementations should do with
  it - building exceptions into implementations (e.g., martian IIDs)
  is error prone and may cause conflicts with future IID uses,
  even if 4rd is experimental.
  So I'm also sharing Ole's concerns here:
  http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ipv6/current/msg16976.html

- without knowing too many details of the 4rd solution I'd rather
  propose to use configured 4rd subnet-IDs as indicator that the
  IID has a special format: this would be IMHO far more reliable
  and consistent than relying on this "reserved IID range". Since 4rd
  will require configuration anyway, one can configure the right 4rd
  /64s. I'm aware of the counter arguments (j)(m) in
  http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ipv6/current/msg16949.html,
  i.e., "free choice of subnet prefixes at CE sites" and
  "IID assignments made before 4rd activation".
  But it is not clear to me how often this will be _actually_ the case
  in practice and whether it's worth to "sacrifice" IID space and IPv6
  flexibility for keeping these requirements. IPv6 is flexible enough
  to automatically reassign subnet prefixes or IIDs, thus I'm still
  not buying the arguments yet...

Regards,
 Roland

   Appendix A of the IPv6 Duplicate Address Detection (DAD) document in
   RFC 4862 discusses Loopback Suppression and DAD.  However, RFC 4862
   does not settle on one specific automated means to detect loopback of
   Neighbor Discovery (ND of RFC 4861) messages used by DAD.  Several
   service provider communities have expressed a need for automated
   detection of looped backed ND messages used by DAD.  This document
   includes mitigation techniques and then outlines the Enhanced DAD
   algorithm to automate detection of looped back IPv6 ND messages used
   by DAD.  For network loopback tests, the Enhanced DAD algorithm
   allows IPv6 to self-heal after a loopback is placed and removed.
   Further, for certain access networks the document automates resolving
   a specific duplicate address conflict.

6man folks,

Please see the new proposal made in the second paragraph of section 4 in th=
is new version and provide feedback.  The -01 version algorithm suppressed =
subsequent probes on a detecting a looped back probe.   The -02 version cha=
nges to NOT suppress and probe forever.  Thanks to Ray who caught the suppr=
ession in the -01 version and asked not to suppress.

Regards,

Hemant

If a better alternative is devised for 4rd, as Roland proposes here, then c=
an we deprecate the u/g bit usage? Seems to me that privacy addresses are p=
referable anyway, if not DHCP or statically assigned ones, so any importanc=
e assigned to u/g surely becomes a historical artifact?

indeed.
4rd tries to solve the problem of having a 4rd CE located behind the CPE =
(that receives the IPv6 delegated prefix).
the current  4rd solution is to try to share the on-link /64 that is =
also used by native hosts.

for a single shared IPv4 address, I believe a 4rd CE would require 2^16 =
addresses. (the last 16 bits are used for the CNP).
i.e. a /112.

the problematic assumption 4rd makes, is that it requires these =
addresses without having a mechanism to do duplicate address
detection.

what are the alternatives to a fixed reservation of the interface-id =
space proposed?

1) pick a separate /64 for the purpose of the 4rd function. an automated =
mechanism for prefix assignment is being worked
   on in homenet. (draft-arkko-homenet-prefix-assignment-03)=20

2) defend the 4rd CE address space using DAD. pick 64K addresses out =
::0:a.b:c.d:CNP.
    chances of a conflict are small, and you would be able to detect and =
defend those for nodes trying to take that address
    after the 4rd CE comes up. I wouldn't recommend doing DAD on every =
address first. so you may end up in a situation
    where you encounter a conflict while in operation. that should be =
possible to handle though.

3) remove the CNP feature that makes 4rd require so many addresses to =
function.

either of these are=20

Yes, you've described reality. You haven't answered my questions.

What makes the addresses unique are the unique MACs, not the u bit.

Faulty premise -> faulty conclusion.

To me, it clarifies that you don't have answers to my questions. Given 
that you cannot demonstrate any negative impact to un-defining the u 
bit, I wonder what the basis of your objection is.

	prefix:  A variable-length field containing an IP address or the
           prefix of an IP address.  An IPv4-mapped address [RFC4291] must
           be used to represent an IPv4 address as a prefix value.  The
           prefix should be left aligned, big-endian, and zero padded on
           the right up to the next octet boundary.  So the length of this
           field should be between 0 and 16 bytes

	is ambigious on the encoding of 2002:1234:8734::/64

	is it:
	40:20:02:12:34:87:34:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00
	or

Mark,

You have me confused here.  /64 defines a prefix length of 64 bits, =
exactly 8 octets. Octet for Octet, 20:02:12:34:87:34:00:00 is =
unambiguously correct and in accordance with the definition cited.  =
Please explain where the leading 40 originates.

The 40 was the prefix length octet (0x40 == 64). Sorry for not being
clear on that.

The sub-option has a length field which means that you can append
zeros up to the defined maximum (16).  As it is a zero padded field
you can also theoretically remove trailing zeros without loss of
information.  Nothing in the definition says that you can't do that.

prefix-len:  An 8-bit unsigned integer; the number of leading bits in
        the prefix that are valid.  The value ranges from 0 to 128.

Fair enough.
My answer is that no software that I know makes determination based on =
the u bit.

My point is that it isn't sufficient for the IETF u bit to have no =
meaning.
(a) It has what is specified in RFC 4291.
(b) No software I know creates IIDs having u =3D 1 without an IEEE-based =

This gets too subtle for my ability to understand which premises and =

Let's go to basics. Are you suggesting to CHANGE the u bit significance?
- If no, no disagreement is IMHO worth debating
- If yes, we have indeed different opinions. See below. =20

I have now answered the ONLY remaining question from you I have noticed.
Your turn to answer mine.

The logic is the reverse. Before changing a standard, one needs to =
demonstrate it is indispensable.


QUESTIONS: =20
(a) Which sentences of RFC 4291 you think MUST be changed?
(b) Why?

Please give your personal answers (not by reference to comments made by =
someone else).

Bob,

This is, in my understanding,  what should be avoided in 6man, a debate =
on new 4rd modifications:
- The 4rd design has been stabilized for long in Softwire.
- The question to 6man is ONLY whether the proposed reserved range is =
compatible with the IPv6 addressing architecture.

Thanks,
RD

Remi,

the point I'm trying to make is that the future of 4rd does not depend =
on 6man accepting the request for a reserved space.
4rd can function very well without it.

cheers,
Ole

This isn't totally decoupled:
- if someone asks to introduce a "new format"/magic bits
  into the IID, my answer is:
  "this is bad for the IPv6 addressing architecture"
- if someone asks to reserve a larger range in the IID space
  my answer is:
  "this is bad for the IPv6 addressing architecture", because

  robust and reliable solutions as I pointed out.

As already said, the 4rd range only makes a first use of an existing =
RFC4291 provision:
"The use of the universal/local bit in the Modified EUI-64 format =
identifier is to allow development of future technology that can take =
advantage of interface identifiers with universal scope."

New, indeed, but nothing magic.

- Once more: existing implementations have NOTHING to do (as long as =
they don't add 4rd support).
Expressed doubts on this should be justified by a detailed technical =
justification.
If you have any, let's look at it.

- The reserved range is a tool to AVOID conflicts. It isn't, like DAD, a =
tool to RESOLVE them when they occur.=20

This doesn't concern "compatibility with the IPv6 addressing =
architecture".

DAD *detects* them, but does not resolve them (for instance, the last
"D" stands for detection). As a datapoint, all the v6 implementations I
know of support DAD, yet they do not resolve DAD failures when one is
encountered.

unless you call the fact that the duplicate address is not assigned to =
the interface, as resolving the problem.
with Remi's proposal, a duplicate address will not even be detected.

Right, thanks for noting I failed to be as rigorous as I should.

I should have said DETECT as far DAD is concerned (I do know what it =
means!), or have referred to RFC 4941 (privacy extension) as a tool to =
RESOLVE duplicates if "detected" by DAD.

Well, RFC 4941 says "If DAD indicates the address is already in use, the =
node MUST generate a new randomized interface identifier", and is widely =
implemented (as I am sure you know).=20
Your turn, it seems, to be less rigorous than you could ;-).

As it turns out now, this assumption is probably no longer true.

I was talking more about implications on new/forthcoming/updated
implementations. Do they need to keep a list of reserved IIDs
and check against them? This seems to be a bad idea IMHO.
We have no clear rules for this yet.

That's exactly my point: what should future implementations
do in order to avoid such conflicts? In case that they are
not using 4rd, MUST they exclude this IID range?

RFC4291 is clear that packets destined to ff01::/16 must never leave

Partially true: it is "resolved" so that two hosts do not
use the same address at the same time in this subnet.
DAD does not specify how to get out of the DAD failure,
e.g., retry with a new address etc.
DAD resolves a conflict if one host has got already an
address and another host tries to configure the same address.
In this case the latter host will be usually left with
an unusable address in state tentative/dad conflict.
If two hosts try to configure the same address at the
same time, both will not get a working address after
detecting a duplicate address. I would say that the
conflict is resolved, but the systems are not left
in a state in which they can communicate thereafter.

Regards,
 Roland

Nothing new needs to be done in any implementation other than that of a =

Because of RFC 4291 is as it is, softwares that assign IIDs NEVER do it =

(That's precisely why the 4rd range has been chosen with u=3Dg=3D1).

"Be liberal in what you accept, and conservative in what you send",
Since the sending node obviously violated the 2nd part of Jon Postel's
robustness principle, it should be ignored and dropped by the receiving
system.
Moreover, report the failure to the vendor of the broken implementation
or fix it by yourself if possible ;-)

Hey Ole,

Cisco has this implemented in certain code trains today (on nexus/6500 
platforms), and there is at least one other switch manufacturer that is 
about to release it as well.

Thanks,

The key is that the packets should be dropped without generating any

Hi Fernando,

If the chairs were to initiate a last call, I would support this document.

Maybe the chairs can comment?

I meant the assumption within the RFC 4291...

Then I don't see a compelling reason to reserve an IID range for 4rd,
since it should work without the reservation just fine.

while we are on the topic, and you made me re-read the document.

section 4:
issues with terminology. call a device that walks the extension header =
chain something else than a router.
rfc2460 definition of a router; "extension headers are not examined or =
processed by any node along a packet's delivery path".
a switch in my book doesn't look at L3 headers.
use "middlebox" or "filtering router"?

section 3:
is the main justification for this work to make NAT64s function better? =
if so that might be a little short-sighted, by the time we've updated =
IPv6 implementations... perhaps use a different example than NAT64?

section 5:
restricting the header chain seems like an incomplete solution. doesn't =
a middlebox need to reassembly fragments anyway,
to deal with mis-ordered fragments?
at least at some point I thought BSD sent fragmented packets by sending =
the last fragment first.

with a more idealist hat on:
that extension headers are hard to parse, some consider a feature of =
IPv6.
a feature that tries to protect the end to end Internet, i.e. that we =
can deploy new transport protocols and extension
headers without upgrading all intermediate boxes. changing the IPv6 =
protocol for a flawed design (aka middleboxes), is that wise?
might as well just deprecate IP fragmentation. (which I would be in =
favour of).

and don't get me wrong, I can't imagine any use case for an extension =
header chain longer than 1280 bytes either.

cheers,
Ole

Ole,

I am supporting this draft because the community has become accustomed to s=
tateless firewalls on routers. These stateless firewalls are capable of fil=
tering based upon information gleaned from both the IPv6 and L4 header.

When a stateless firewall encounters an IPv6 datagram in which the IPv6 hea=
der and L4 header don't appear in the first fragment, it can't make an info=
rmed filtering decision on any fragment. However, if there is a guarantee t=
hat the IPv6 header and the L4 header are in the first fragment, it can at =
least make an informed decision regarding that fragment.=20

Would the draft be more acceptable if we stated this as the motivation and =
removed references to NAT64?

                                     Ron

my own .02

Stateless observation of upper layer headers of any variety have this 
issue whether applied in a router or on and end system. if I wish to 
apply a particular priority to a packet forwarding on the basis of an L4 
identifier I have to find it first.  If I want my sflow/netflow  export 
to expose the contents of the upper layer header I need to find them. If 
I want to protect the control plane, first I need to find the upper 
layer header. If I need to mitigate a DOS attack sourced on UDP 53 I 
need to find the upper layer header etc.

I don't really belive that wanting usable data out of flow sampling 
(which necessarily due to the nature of sampling cannot do reassembly), 
or the ability to assign queues to traffic on the basis of something 
other than source/dest address and an empty flow label result in what 
would be characterized as flawed middlebox design. Nor whould I 
characterize the devices that do this as firewalls, elsewise every 
high-scale router on the internet is a firewall.

Will do.

I could mention something along the lines of "any middlebox that
must/wants_to perform stateless processing of packets"

No. Such devices typically pass non-first fragments, and enforce their
policy based on the information contained in the first fragment.

Others consider "deployability" a more interesting feature -- are we
really having this discussion?

That doesn't protect the end-to-end-ness of the Internet, but rather
just prevents IPv6 from being deployed -- such "feature" ("overlooked
conercase", I'd rather say) will only prevent traffic (that would have
otherwise been allowed) from flowing in the network.

That's your take. My take is that packets that have more headers than
payload don't make any sense. We put headers to move payloads -- not the
other way around.

IMHO, (and all the above said), this document was adopted almost a year
ago. If we're going to stop moving documents forward to re-hash
one-year-old discussions (as we already did with
draft-ietf-6man-stable-privacy-addresses), it becomes very hard to make
any sort of progress.

Thanks!

Yes, it's certainly an issue for load balancers, for example.
It certainly isn't "routers" in the classical sense.

At the chairs' request, I cross-checked the interaction of this
draft with draft-carpenter-6man-ext-transmit some time back,
and concluded that there's no conflict. Banning fragmented header
chains makes header processing easier, so it's a good thing, IMHO.

IMHO yes - this was an oversight in the design. I would like to fix
middleboxes too, hence draft-carpenter-6man-ext-transmit, but it
is not easily enforceable.

That's an even bigger piece to bite off. For now, just set your MTU to 1280 ;-)

- As already pointed out, in particular to Ran Atkinson:
"Making the reservation for one design, experimental or not, is a =
guarantee that no future design with conflict with it, experimental or =
not. A central registry is the appropriate tool for this."

- 4rd needs only 1/16384 of the currently unused range, which is worth =
registering.

Coming in very late and this has probably already been thought of, but
the ESP header *is* effectively a payload, and may need to be
fragmented.

everything after the esp header is payload for everyone other than the 
intended recipient, who has more headers to unwrap once the payload has 
been decrypted.

Ron,

of filtering based upon information gleaned from both the IPv6 and L4 =
header.

don't get me wrong, I'm also in support of this work. ;-)
but if we go down this slippery slope. where do we draw the line? I do =
know of filtering routers that look at the L7 headers.
and I'm sure there are those that inspect the payload as well.
do we arbitrary choose to stop at the L4 header?

as Karl pointed out, what do we do with the ESP header? do you define =
which part of the ESP header that must be included in the first =
fragment? or does this mean that a packet with ESP MUST NOT be =
fragmented?
are there other headers where what consist of the "entire ipv6 header =
chain" is unclear?

> When a stateless firewall encounters an IPv6 datagram in which the =
IPv6 header and L4 header don't appear in the first fragment, it can't =
make an informed filtering decision on any fragment. However, if there =

fragment, it can at least make an informed decision regarding that =
fragment.=20

yes, I think that would help.

Er - yes. I just meant that you can't take the hard line that "headers
shall not be fragmented" (not that Brian was saying that) when at least
one header may have to be. There will only be more headers to unwrap in
tunnel mode.

Also, the implementation of that dropping may not be that
straightforward as at a quick first sight.

A stack presented with a packet whose dst's leftmost 16bits precisely
match ff01::/16 should be dropped _only_ if the src of that packet is an
address which does not belong to that stack (in other words don't
discard packets originated by stack and addressed to self). ('be liberal
in what you accept').

A question could be raised about what should do a stack when presented
with a packet whose src==:: (unspecified address) and dst==ff01::/16

Should it drop it?  Log an error?  Accept it?

it would be good if you could summarise the changes from the last call.

I read through the document again, and my only remaining concern is that =
the document doesn't specify the=20
hash function to be used.

is there usefulness in having stable interface-ids that are generated =
the same across implementations?
and are predictable given knowledge of the "secret key". I would think =
so.

Best regards,

FreeBSD drops any packets sent to ff01::/16 if they did not originate from the
local host.

Linux currently accept these, regardless of who sent them.

Correct: even if software is available to detect collisions between 4rd =
addresses and RFC 4291-compatible host addresses, it won't detect any. =
(Such software, which isn't mandatory for 4rd, is of course not excluded =
either.)=20

The simple reason for this non-detection is that these addresses have =
IIDs in disjoint sets.=20

I think you have received quite a lot of pushback against creating =

one more in http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ipv6/current/msg16972)

Besides, these remaining concerns are aside from the question asked by =

is compatible with the IPv6 addressing architecture).

1. If you interpret RFC 4291 as already permitting to set u=3D1 in some =
IIDs other than derived from IEEE MAC addresses, yes, we differ.

Note that, concerning the u/g bit significance, RFC 4291 is not the only =
RFC that avoids u=3D1 in IIDs that aren't IEEE derived, and to avoid u=3D1=
 in IEEE derived addresses that are unicast:

- RFC 3972 requires, in CGA IIDs, "setting bits 6 and 7 (i.e., the "u" =
and "g" bits) to zero".

- RFC 4941 requires, for privacy-extension IIDs, "set bit 6 (the =
leftmost bit is numbered 0) to zero.  This creates an interface =
identifier with the universal/local bit indicating local significance =
only."=20
=20
- RFC 6740 requires that "ILNP Identifiers have the same syntax as IPv6 =
interface identifiers [RFC4291], based on the EUI-64 format =
[IEEE-EUI]... If they have global scope, they SHOULD be globally =
unique... For both ILNP node Identifiers and also IPv6 interface =
identifiers, this Group bit is set to 0."



2. In http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ipv6/current/msg16982 you =
mentioned a particular use you know of a local-scope IID having u=3Dg=3D1,=
 namely ffff:0:0:1. Reason why its u bit isn't 0 is so far unclear but, =
assuming there is a reason, this IID can be reserved too in the =
IID-range registry, or one of its prefixes.=20

As already noted, there isn't conflict between this IID and the 4rd =
range. No need to change either one. =20



Conclusion: if you need some IIDs having u=3Dg=3D1 for some identified =
use, let's document this use.=20
We will thus avoid an unnecessary controversy.=20

RD

FWIW I agree with Ole.

An IID currently only has relevance to the IPv6 addressing architecture
specified in RFC4291 only when concatenated behind a /64 unicast address
prefix, and only on an individual link.

draft-ietf-softwire-4rd proposes breaking that tight coupling.

I'm not per se against breaking the tight coupling, because RFC4291
states "The use of the universal/local bit in the Modified EUI-64 format
identifier is to allow development of future technology that can take
advantage of interface identifiers with universal scope." But it is a
change to current specification.

But in addition IMVHO.....

RFC 4291 states "Modified EUI-64 format-based interface identifiers may
have universal
   scope when derived from a universal token (e.g., IEEE 802 48-bit MAC
   or IEEE EUI-64 identifiers [EUI64]) or may have local scope where a
   global token is not available (e.g., serial links, tunnel end-points)
   or where global tokens are undesirable (e.g., temporary tokens for
   privacy [PRIV])."

The intention here to me is quite clear, even if it isn't written in
normative language.

u=1 should be used for generating an IID derived from universal  tokens.
The examples of universal tokens given in the document are those, which
by the nature of their distributed administration, can be assumed to
universally unique.

Appendix E of draft-ietf-softwire-4rd demonstrates how to generate an
IPv6 address for use with 4rd from an RFC 1918 address.

I do not consider an IPv4 RFC1918 address to be a global/universal token.

I don't see how generating an identifier that has to be unique way
beyond an individual link [by definition in 4rd], from an identifier or
token that clearly isn't globally unique [RFC1918], fits anywhere within
the spirit of any text contained in RFC4291.

To quote RFC1918 "As before, any enterprise that needs globally unique
address space is required to obtain such addresses from an Internet
registry." Use of magic beans to ensure global uniqueness would seem to
be excluded.

So as I have previously asserted, I think there certainly needs to be
some clarification of any possible transportation of 4rd across an AS
boundary, regardless of any other discussions.

Transporting RFC1918 addresses across an AS boundary (in a 4rd tunnel),
accidentally or otherwise, would to me be a clear violation of RFC1918,
and the IPv4 [sic] addressing architecture. Nothing I've read in the
meantime has changed this view.

Which is one reason why I continue to assert that a global IID
reservation is not necessary for experimental deployment of 4rd at this
time: IMVVHO 4rd as specified today in draft-ietf-softwire-4rd can only
safely be deployed within a single AS. Inter-AS 4rd would be potentially
harmful.

And for the record, Remi: The IETF is a meritocracy. I don't believe
it's your role to call consensus in this WG, or otherwise define or
limit what is, or is not, a valid discussion or stand point. It isn't
mine either for that matter. If the chairs wish to make a statement, I'm
sure they will do.

Respectfully yours,
RayH

Rémi,

Do you admit to the possibility that the design coming from softwire 
might have flaws that should be addressed before it proceeds?

I'm not saying necessarily that it does, although people here a lot 
smarter than me have raised concerns that I would like to see addressed 
in a manner other than, "I don't want to talk about that."

Thanks, that matches my (admittedly imperfect) understanding as well.

So my new question is, why do you care?

To amplify slightly, I am ambivalent about un-defining the u and g bits. 
Generally such a thing is difficult to do, since it's nearly impossible 
to get a complete survey of all software everywhere that may use those 
bits, and determine if it is safe to stop to just stop caring about them.

OTOH, I am not a fan of magic bits in general, and I have never seen an 
adequate explanation of why an implementor should care about these 2. So 
I'm sympathetic to the argument about un-defining them, but you seem to 
be vehemently opposed to it, so I'm trying to understand your objection. 
"It's important because it's important!" doesn't help me. :)

Doug

In RFC 4291;
- 2.5 is Unicast addresses
- 2.5.1 is Interface Identifiers.
- It says: "For all unicast addresses, except those that start with the =
binary value 000, Interface IDs are required to be 64 bits long"

4rd only depends on the RFC-4291 constraint that all native IPv6 =
destinations that don't start with 000 and enter a 4rd-CE site comply =
with the above. =20

No change of the current specification is needed, because of the above.

(a) As a matter of fact, a 4rd IID is UNIVERSALLY UNIQUE: it contains a =
global IPv4 address (see the definition of a 4rd IPv4 address), followed =
by a CNP which cannot have the same value for two CEs sharing the same =
IPv4 address. (16-bit prefixes of two CE prefixes that differ only by n =
consecutive bits, with 0 < n < 16, are necessarily different)

In view of your misinterpretation here, it may be useful to add a =
clarification on this in the 4rd draft itself. I can provide text if =
needed.


(b) Seeing your reference to RFC 1918, I looked at Appendix E, the only =
place where it is referenced.=20
It contains an unfortunate typo. If it facilitated the misunderstanding, =
sorry for that.=20

Where it says "the public IPv4 prefix to be used for shared addresses is =
supposed to be 192.16.0.0/16 (0xc610)", it should have had =
198.16.0.0/16. (a usual example value for a global IPv4 prefix, and =
equal to 0xC610).=20

In this Appendix E, 4rd is used *as usual* for GLOBAL IPv4 over IPv6. It =
only happens that the (global) IPv6 is deployed using 6rd on an RFC1918 =
ISP network.=20

4rd doesn't work with RFC-1918 addresses.
(And there isn't any magic bean anyway.)

No problem as 4rd IPv4 addresses are all global.

That says to me that could be clarified, so that implementers make
interoperable implementations.

In one sense, one wouldn't want a Linux to behave unexpectedly when a
FreeBSD sent it a packet whose IP dst is ff01::/64 with the right MAC
dst address.

In another sense, one wouldn't want a FreeBSD to drop packets sent by a
Linux which thinks everyone acts like him/her.

But this is speculative.  HAve you seen it in practice?  Which protocol
makes common use of ff01::/64?

I could add a clarification, if you want (for instance, I added
something along those lines in draft-ietf-v6ops-ra-guard-implementation)

To me the FreeBSD is the obviously correct behavior. They are supposed
to be interface-local, hence not arriving from somewhere else. There
could be security implications with applications using this to pass
packets between them and not expecting that a forged packet could be
arriving from the outside. Checking the source address is not sufficient
IMO.

I'm not saying there wouldn't be any value, however:

1) That means all implementations should employ the same hash function
-- however, e.g. an embedded device might be more inclined to use MD5
than a more expensive function (that could be used by, say, a desktop
computer).

2) Mandating a hash function makes us stuck with a single hash-function
forever. What if whatever function we adopt becomes deprecated? (we
would update the std, and now have a set of boxes that behave one way,
are another set that behaves in another).

3) One of the paramters to the hash function is the Interface Index.
Different implementations use different values for the interface index
(for instance, the RFCs do not speficify how an interface index should
be constructed) -- and, besides, there's no requirement whatsoever that
even if two implementations use, say, small numbers for interface index,
they use exactly the same values, for the same interfaces.
Put another way, it seems to me that what you describe would not be that
easy to enforce.

Thoughts?

Thanks,

So I'm sympathetic to the argument about un-defining them, but you seem =
to be vehemently opposed to it, so I'm trying to understand your =
objection. "It's important because it's important!" doesn't help me. :)

Let me clarify where I stand:

(a) Whether changing RFC4291 or not is not the issue for which I work so =
hard these days. I do think it isn't necessary and have argued in this =
direction, but my point is that I see a real benefit (point (b)) in =
using RFC 4291 as is. No modification should break anything, including =
this benefit.
  =20
(b) The benefit comes from the following, i.e. one of the 4rd =
objectives:=20
- We want to statelessly establish automatic tunnels for residual IPv4 =
across IPv6-only domains.
- We don't want, when doing so, to impose any renumbering of IPv6 link =
and/or host.
- This is possible ONLY IF we use, for each CE tunnel endpoint, an IPv6 =
address that no host in the CE site may be using.
- Fortunately this happens to be feasible, with IPv6 as is: in a site =
that is delegated a prefix up to /64, no host that has a global unicast =
address conforming to RFC4291 may have an IID in which u=3Dg=3D1.
- By reserving a small subset of this unused IID space, we reach our =
objective.

Hope it clarifies.

Regards,
RD

not a bad idea, but don't we have other options in this area?

excellent, any protocol/idea that impose this is quite badly designed.

I have always thought any address I get on my host from dhcpv6/ra or
similar, mixed with DAD and other mechanism are as close to a guaranty
as we can get.
No need for some magic bits of any type.

... You just ASSUME something I think we all understand is not
possible to guaranty. There will be collision, deal with it.

Someone will probably sooner than later, assign either auto (yes they
break the "rule") or manual an address that will cause two hosts on
the same link/site to have the same address no matter how much you
ASSUME the above (u=3Dg=3D1...)

yes it clarifies to me that you suggest a quite broken way of using
IPv6 addresses. You ASSUME things, among that some magic bits (u and
g) will give you something close to an unique address.

Clearly, we have to draw the line somewhere. I think that it is reasonable =
to stop at the L4 header.

The document needs to make a special exception for encrypted payloads. In t=
hat case, the ESP header must begin on the first fragment, but need not end=
 on the first fragment.

Does this sound reasonable?

yes, I'll leave it to the ipsec experts to determine if there is a part =

Do you mean that the ESP header must be the first item in the
fragmentable part of the first fragment? Or that the ESP header must be
(at least partly) in the non-fragmentable part of the first fragment?

If the latter, that's a new kind of animal. At present, a header is
either completely in the non-fragmentable part or completely in the
fragmentable part. Permitting a header to straddle the fragment header
seems odd, and I can't immediately see how you could do it without
changing the fragment header definition, either.

I think we all mean that the ESP header must be the last "visible"
header in the fragmentable part of the first fragment.

Put another way, if the ESP header is the last chunk of headers one
could possibly snoop without decrypting the packet, then that header
must be in the first fragment.

Yes, There's a long story originating from a Java/JDK bug, where it fails to 
bind sockets to a link-local multicast address. The desperate designer started
using ff01::/16 addresses instead, which worked on Linux.

Hosts of an IPv6 customer site can have IPv6 addresses assigned, with =
SLAAC or DHCPv6, BEFORE 4rd is activated.=20

If  these addresses become in conflict with the CE 4rd address when 4rd =
is activated, renumbering becomes necessary. The objective (*) isn't =

Bits u and g haven't been invented for 4rd.

No magic involved.

Let me make the point again.
It is a fact (not an assumption) that RFC4291-conforming IIDs either =
have u=3D0, in which case other bits may have any values, or, if they =
have have g=3D1, have a specified structure. So far the only such =
structure is that of IEEE derived IIDs. With it, g=3D0 because these =
IIDs are those of unicast addresses.

If, in your understanding, RFC 4291 authorizes IIDs having u=3Dg=3D1, =

Auto assignments that break the rules are bound to create problems =
anyway.
Their bugs need to be fixed.

Manual mistakes do occur, yes. They have to be fixed like other bugs.=20

I hope you will eventually understand that so much negativeness isn't =

Fortunately for me, a number of highly experienced 6man contributors =
have already expressed their view that the proposed range reservation =

It doesn't explicitly say that packets sent to ff01::/16
must be dropped if originated from another host. Only that it
"is useful only for loopback delivery of multicasts within 
a single node".
'Useful' is a quite loose definition, and I was asked to file 
an errata on this.

So far the only such structure is that of IEEE derived IIDs. With it, g=0 because these IIDs are those of unicast addresses.

However, there is nothing which enforces RFC4291-conforming IIDs for
(for instance) statically configured IPv6-addresses. So in what way do
well defined u/g values for RFC4291-conforming IIDs help you?

1.
Users that manually configure their IPv6 addresses should be =
knowledgeable about what they do.

If one configures an address has u=3Dg=3D1, unless it is for an =
experiment, it is a human mistake (it conflicts with the IPv6 addressing =
architecture of RFC 4291). Depending on the context, this mistake will =
have no consequence or will eventually have to be corrected.
Note that, even if one does such a mistake in a 4rd site, the likelihood =
of using the 4rd IID prefix 0x0300 remains low.

2.
On my home network, I know nobody is doing manual configuration.

RD

Hi, Fred,

Sorry for the delay in providing comments (as promised). Here they are:

Section 2:

>    The current "Internet cell size" is effectively 1500 bytes, i.e., the
>    minimum MTU configured by the vast majority of links in the Internet.
>    IPv6 constrains this even further by specifying a minimum link MTU of
>    1280 bytes [RFC2460].  However, due to operational issues with Path
>    MTU Discovery (PMTUD) [RFC1981] these sizes can often only be
>    accommodated when links with smaller link-layer segment sizes are
>    configured to perform link adaptation.

We could probably add some references regarding PMTUD issues in IPv6
(some folks think/thought/expected them to be gone with v6... but they
are not) -- found them later... could you move them to this para?


>    Unfortunately, link adaptation can present a significant burden to
>    the link endpoints, i.e., especially when the link supports high data
>    rates and/or is located nearer the "middle" of the network instead of
>    nearer the "edge".  An alternative therefore is to ask the
>    originating IPv6 node to perform fragmentation on the packets it

>    destination.

This is okay, but.. in the previous para, you started with the premise
that you have to rely on link-adaptation as a result of PMTUD failures,
so.... if ICMPv6 PTB are going to be blocked, how an you expect the
sources to fragment their packets? (i.e., receive the corresponding signal)



Section 3:

> 
>    This document does not propose to change these requirements, but
>    notes that link adaptation can be burdensome for some links to the
>    point that it would be highly desirable to push the fragmentation and
>    reassembly responsibility to the IPv6 communication endpoints.  In
>    order to accommodate this, when the router at the link ingress
>    performs link adaptation on a packet it should also send an ICMPv6
>    PTB message back to the original source (subject to rate limiting)
>    with a Next-Hop MTU less than 1280 and with Code field set to 1
>    [RFC4443].  (Note that these PTB messages are advisory in nature and
>    do not necessarily indicate packet loss.)

Some implementations validate ICMP error messages based on
connection-progress (please see RFC 5927)-- in v6 this is as good as it
can get, since you might not even receive the eg TCP header in the
ICMPv6 payload. Since you'd be both sending an error *and* performing
link adaptation, the connection would progress, and hence such
implementations would drop the ICMPv6 message. -- workaround: keep track
of whether the other endpoint reduces the size of its packets. If it
doesn't, try "drop & send ICMPv6 PTB". (and yes, if packets stop
flowing, you should assume there's a PMTUD blackhole)


Section 3:

>    "In response to an IPv6 packet that is sent to a destination located
>    beyond an IPv6 link that must perform link adaptation, the
>    originating IPv6 node may receive an ICMP Packet Too Big message
>    reporting a Next-Hop MTU less than 1280 and with Code=1.  In that
>    case, the IPv6 node is not required to reduce the size of subsequent
>    packets to less than 1500 bytes, but must perform IPv6 fragmentation
>    on those packets by breaking the packet into N roughly equal-length
>    pieces (where N is minimized and the length of each piece is smaller
>    than the Next-Hop MTU).  These fragments will be reassembled by the
>    destination."

I guess you meant "1280" rather than 1500?

That aside: the text is a bit confusing. what's should be the maximum
size of each fragment? The one reported by the ICMPv6 PTB code 1?


Section 4:
>    Regardless of whether there is a link in the path that performs link
>    adaptation, when an originating IPv6 node receives a PTB message
>    reporting a Next-Hop MTU value between 1280 and 1500 bytes, the node
>    need not reduce the size of the packets it sends.  The node may
>    instead invoke fragmentation for packets between 1281 and 1500 bytes
>    (again, by splitting the packet into N roughly equal-length pieces)
>    before submitting each fragment for link-layer framing.  These
>    fragments will be reassembled by the final destination

Why don't you want the packet size to be reduced in this case? That
aside, if you're fragmenting the packets, you're reducing their size....
so I don't get why the text says "need not reduce..."


Section 4:
>    A more interesting situation arises when PTB messages are lost on the
>    return path to the originating IPv6 node.  Since the node has no way
>    of discerning which paths may exhibit this condition, it may be
>    better served to assume the worst case for all paths and take
>    precautionary measures to avoid silent packet loss.  For example, an
>    originating IPv6 node that wishes to ensure that packets between 1281
>    and 1500 bytes will reach the final destination can use "proactive
>    fragmentation" to fragment each packet (again, by splitting the
>    packet into N roughly equal-length pieces). 

Fragmentation is not a panacea. Please check the recent discussion on
v6ops regarding IPv6 fragment filtering, and
<http://www.nlnetlabs.nl/downloads/publications/pmtu-black-holes-msc-thesis.pdf>.

Of the top of my head: Aren't you specifying a new Code value for ICMPv6
PTB? -- Then it looks like you do have actions for IANA.


Important item: At the end of the day, you're somehow saying that the
IPv6 minimum MTU is no longer 1280 -- but not explicitly. So this should
be made explicit (yes, yes.. "controversial"... but I like to call a
lemon a lemon :-) ). -- FWIW, some folks have already noted that the
hassle of having to do link adaptation, and v6-enabled links failing to
to that (I have always been for references on this topic, though).

Thanks!

Folks,

As requested by Ole, here's the summary of changes from version -01 (the
one WGLC'ed) to version -03 (the current one):

* Incorporated text noting that the algorithm should handle reserved
IIDs, and how to handle the case in which such an IID is generated.

* Added more details regarding how to handle reserved IIDs and DAD
failures (e.g., suggesting how many new addresses to try).

* Clarified that these addresses have the same lifetime as the
traditional SLAAC addresses (since we're not changing SLAAC)

* Clarified that from the point of view of renumbering, these addresses
behave as the traditional slaac addresses.

* Added the rationale for not mandating any specific hash algorithm
(additional comments on this topic may be found in my recent on-list)
response to Ole)

* Miscellaneous edits (added additional references, fixed obsolete text
that somehow was still there from earlier versions of this document
(when this I-D was meant to be a replacement for the traditional slaac
addresses, rather than an alternative), etc.)

Should we ship now?

Thanks!

Best regards,

What's the operational failure mode?  Does it fail in a way which
would be obvious to the ones who has made this mistake, or will
simply some seemingly-random pairs of hosts fail to communicate?
I think it would be an engineering mistake to willfully create
hard-to-detect failure scenarios via a modification to already
fielded standards.

That's a nice handwave...

That doesn't really prove anything.

Maybe I don't get it, but it seems that mixed usage of non-4rd hosts
and 4rd hosts in the same subnet is not easily possible, since 4rd
cannot use different IIDs than the algorithmically derived ones.
So conflicts are hopefully detected, but cannot be resolved.

This seems to suggest that you better use a different 4rd subnet-prefix
when configuring 4rd use so that all nodes in this 4rd subnet-prefix
use the same method to derive their IID and you avoid conflicts
with other hosts. Wouldn't it be possible to use those two subnets in
parallel, then there would be no need to renumber existing hosts.

Regards,
 Roland

I can't lex your question, so please forgive me for 
starting from first principles.  :-)

As the name Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) implies, 
ESP *encapsulates* other information, (seeks to) protect 
the encapsulated information, and ESP is always a 
terminating payload.  

Put another way, while ESP might contain something else
(e.g. an encrypted blob that if successfully decrypted
becomes a TCP header and TCP data segment), ESP is itself
always the last payload in the original on-the-wire packet.

In the general case, the ESP is encrypted, so the only 
parseable object is the SPI, which consists of the first 
few bytes of the ESP.  The SPI is used to demux different
ESP-protected sessions so that a legitimate recipient
can learn which cryptographic keys/algorithms/modes 
to apply to the ESP in order to retrieve the protected
information.

While various techniques for parsing an ESP that might not 
be encrypted have been proposed, none seems completely 
(i.e. 100.00%) reliable.  Separately, the proposed WESP 
extension appears to have zero implementations, and no
support in any router/middlebox/firewall/NAT device.
So WESP turns out to be irrelevant for this discussion.

> If the latter, that's a new kind of animal.

Not at all.  ESP isn't an optional intermediate header.
ESP always is an optional terminating payload, optional
in the sense that a packet could contain other terminating
payloads (e.g. UDP, TCP, SCTP, ICMP).

> At present, a header is either completely in the

It is already the normal case for ESP.  At present,
ESP might be partly in a first fragment, split between
two fragments, or entirely in a non-first fragment.

In turn, your confusion puzzles me.
Does the above explanation help at all ?

Me too. TCP is also an encapsulating header; its contents just don't happen
to be encrypted. The draft's definition of "Entire IPv6 header chain" uses
TCP as an example:

         Note: If there is an upper layer header, only the header (and
         not its payload) are considered part of the "entire IPv6 header
         chain".  For example, if the upper layer protocol is TCP, only
         the TCP header (and not its possible data bytes) should be
         considered part of the "entire IPv6 header chain".

but I don't think it would be any different for ESP.

However, I do see one point that is under-defined right now:

**How many bytes of the transport header+payload are included in this definition?**

For ESP, is it 8 bytes (SPI + Sequence Number)?

For TCP, is it 8 bytes (ports + Sequence Number)?

etc.

The draft also defines "Extension Headers":
      Any Extension Headers as described in Section 4 of [RFC2460], and
      specified in [RFC2460] or any subsequent documents.

FYI, we have included a complete list of extension headers in
draft-carpenter-6man-ext-transmit, and a related IANA proposal.

I think that would be OK.  Certainly it MUST NOT be
more than those 8 bytes, because beyond there lies
encrypted bits (in the general case). =20

I actually believe that the SPI alone would suffice
for ESP.

> For TCP, is it 8 bytes (ports + Sequence Number)?

My own sense is that Source Port and Destination Port,
so 32 bits, actually would suffice, but I'll at least=20
note one possible counter-argument:
	A firewall implementation might want to look=20
	at the TCP flags to check for invalid flag=20
	combinations.

For UDP, my own sense is that the first 32 bits
would suffice, although I don't see any harm in
including the first 64 bits.

I would have no objection to Fernando adding more
detail for the obvious terminating payloads
(e.g. UDP, TCP, SCTP, ICMP, ESP) to the draft.

Adding more clarity about this to the I-D could not hurt,=20
and might help some implementers.

Yours,

Ran

FULL AGREEMENT that we don't want to modify any "already fielded =
standard".
If you believe such a change is needed for 4rd, PLEASE EXPLAIN.=20

If one configures an address that doesn't follow configuration =
constraints, it may fail in various ways, but under its own =
responsibility.
For instance, if it has the wrong subnet prefix, it won't be reachable =
from across the Internet, like what may happen if it has a =
non-RFC4291-complying IID that happens to be in the 4rd reserved range =
in a site where 4rd is activated.

>=20

>=20
> That's a nice handwave...

This is a fact, worth noting IMHO, especially since the particular =
example of a non RFC4291-compliant address Ole gave didn't conflict with =
4rd.

Your lack of interest for this point doesn't justify, IMHO, a so =
depreciating comment.=20

It doesn't prove anything, OK, and wasn't BTW claimed to prove anything =
in particular.

Yet, the risk of manual misconfigurations that may conflict with the RFC =
4291, which is indeed a risk, is mitigated by the fact that manual =
address configuration is AFAIK more an exception than a general =
practice.

There isn't such thing than a 4rd host.
There are only 4rd CEs (customer-edge routers) in which IPv4-in-IPv6 =
tunnels are terminated.

Using a 4rd-specific subnet prefix may impose some renumbering when 4rd =
is activated, which is contrary to our objective.=20
(This prefix, needing to be automatically configured, cannot depend on =
which subnet prefixes are have been used before 4rd activation.)

Hi,

I experience Address Resolution problem while using Linux 2.6.27.

A and B use global IPv6 addresses.

*         2009::6:173 - 'A'  global address (the capture monitors its port)

*         2009::6:172 - 'B' global address

Both A and B are about 8 seconds in the reachable states (STALE / DELAY / P=
ROBE) with full audio, and then ~30 seconds in the INCOMPLETE state. This h=
appens periodically.

I added debug info in net\ipv6\ndisc.c ndisc_recv_na() to print src and dst=
 IPs.
I added debug info in neigh_update() to print LL address and a new state
I enabled NEIGH_PRINTKx and ND_PRINTKx

Observations:

1.    173 discover and lose 172 address in periodic manner - 8 / 42 / 8 / 4=
2 / ...

2.    When 173 loses 172 (and when it gets it again) we see ICMPv6 traffic:=
 NS from 173 to 172 and NA from 172 to 173

*         During the time 173 can't reach 172 there are ICMPv6 NS messages =
from 173 and NA to 173. 173 ndisc_recv_na() is not called. NAs are silently=
 discarded somewhere. At the same time, 173 neighbor cache entry does not f=
ollow the RFC4861. neigh_update() state changes from INCOMPLETE to STALE do=
 DELAYED after the first timeout. It should stay in INCOMPLETE. From DELAYE=
D state it goes to PROBE which is allowed by RFC. It stays in PROBE for 3se=
c (3 NS retransmissions) and goes to FAILED state. 2sec later is send NS ag=
ain and goes into DELAYED state.

3.    NDP:

a.    172 sends only 3 solicitation request for 173 during the capture peri=
od, while 173 sends solicitation to 172 every second

b.    173 reach 172 only after 172 sends advertisement to 173' LL address (=
not the global one and without the "override" flag)

Q: Is this a known problem? If yes, is there a patch for it?

Yes, absolutely. The studies by Matthew Luckie and his colleagues would
fit in here, as would the reference you cited below.

Link adaptation is not necessarily as a result of PMTUD failures.
We already know that, for IPv6, link adaptation is a MUST if the
link MTU is smaller than 1280. What I am saying is that some links
may wish to set an even larger link adaptation threshold (say 1500)
under the presumption that PMTUD *might* fail. =20

The ICMPv6 PTB messages I am proposing would be advisory in nature
and not an indication of packet loss. So, delivery of the PTB's to
the source is best-effort, and loss of the messages would not result
in a black hole. It is just that the link would need to continue to
work hard if the messages either don't get delivered to the source
or are ignored by the source.=20

I'm curious as to what you mean by this. ICMPv6 PTB messages are
mandated to include "As much of (the) invoking packet as possible".
Has this not proven to be the case in operational practice? Or, are
you saying that the TCP header is sometimes not available in-the-clear,
e.g., if IP security is applied?

The system will still work if the source drops the ICMPv6 PTB
message - it's just that the system would work *better* if the
source would heed the message as specified in this document.

It would be too much to ask for the link adaptation endpoint to
keep track of all of the sources and observe their behavior.

No, I actually meant 1500 bytes. This is the minimum-sized reassembly
buffer that the destination is required to configure per RFC2460. So,
this is the maximum size for which the source can expect the destination
to perform reassembly unless it has some way of knowing that the
destination is capable of reassembling more.

Each piece must be smaller than the Next-Hop MTU as reported by the
ICMPv6 PTB message, and the source must also minimize the number of
pieces it sends. =20

Again, this is leveraging the fact that all IPv6 nodes are
required to reassemble 1500 bytes at a minimum. It is up to
the source whether it would be better served to reduce the
size of its packets to something smaller than 1500 bytes or
to perform fragmentation and let the destination perform
reassembly. But, I get your point about confusing wording
so here is a proposed re-write:

  "...when an originating IPv6 node receives a PTB message
   reporting a Next-Hop MTU value between 1280 and 1500 bytes, the node
   can reduce the size of the packets it sends as specified in RFC1981.
   Alternatively, the node can invoke fragmentation for packets that are
   larger than the Next-Hop MTU value but no larger than 1500 bytes, since
   IPv6 destinations are required to reassemble at least that much [RFC2460=
]."  =20

That is worrisome. I don't understand that, if an IPv6 destination
is required to reassemble at least 1500 bytes, that middleboxes in
the network would prevent it from doing so. This seems to be even
more broken than the failure of the network to deliver ICMPv6 PTB
messages. If these core features don't work as advertised, can we
really ever expect to do anything better than 1280?=20

What I would like to say is that the IPv6 minimum MTU size
should be bounded by the IPv6 minimum reassembly size (which is
1500 bytes) instead of bounded by some curious constant value
such as 1280. Packets larger than 1500 bytes are also possible
when the IPv6 source uses RFC4821, but these packets would be
delivered without fragmentation if they are delivered at all.

I think 6lowpan (RFC4944) might be one example?

I had completely misunderstood what the person I was replying to meant.
There was a third option which Fernando put admirably clearly later,
i.e., simply that the beginning of the ESP header had to be in the first
fragment. How much of the beginning of te ESP header needs to be present
in the first fragment is, as you pointed out, a good question.

The following explanation is thus pretty pointless, but just for laughs:

> Not at all.

I was (erroneously) imagining that someone was suggesting that some part
of the ESP header should precede the fragment header in the first
fragment (i.e., in the non-fragmentable part), with some part of the
rest of the ESP header following in the fragmentable part. That would
definitely be a new animal :-)

Sure - but the ESP header never straddles a fragment header. The
fragment header, if present, is always the last thing in the
non-fragmentable part. I was imagining a scenario where this was no
longer the case.

I believe this is not the correct list for asking these questions. The 
linux netdev is probably more suitable place to ask linux specific 
questions.

Then again, I doubt you'll get much enthusiasm there to fault find a 
kernel that was released in october 2008.

I'm saying that, at least theoretically speaking, such header might not
be there. Even if a node complies with
draft-ietf-6man-oversized-header-chain (and e.g. puts lots of extension
headers and then the tcp header in the first frag), when an error is
elicited, the tcp header might need to be left out.

That said, some implementations check for progress on the connection
before honoring ICMPv6 PTB -- which means such implementations would
drop the ICMPv6 PTB your proposing.

Agreed. Just wanted to point this one out, since I don't know whether
you had considered it. -- it might be worth a para.

Agreed.

But then you *are* reducing the size of your packets (the text says "is
not required..."). Or am I missing something?

May be you mean "is not required to reduce the assumed path mtu"?

Probably saying "..can reduce the assumed path mtu" (RFC1918-terminology

I guess when it comes to packet size, something along the lines of <
1400 would generally work (i.e., the usual internet cell size, minus
some bytes for possible tunnels).

But it looks like as long as you need ICMPv6 PTB and/or fragmentation,
you're in trouble.

I wasn't objecting at all -- for instance, at least at first thought,
what you say makes sense to me.

What if you need to send, say, a 5000 byte UDP datagram?

To be honest, I haven't picked at 6lowpan, yet. Do they implement an
adaptation layer, or they simply say "sorry, our minimum MTU is
something smaller than 1280"?

Quickly skimming through RFC4303, it looks like the first 8 bytes of the
ESP header are referred to as "header" (with the other being referred to
as "payload" and "trailer").. so it looks like ESP wouldn't really be a
"special case".

Should we clarify "how many bytes are included" for ESP, nevertheless?

It probably would, but.. since the Seq # is part of the header, and it
is also transmitted in plain text, I'd personally deal with ESP as with
the general case "the entire ESP header" (IMO, the fewer the "special
cases", the better).

In general, firewalls tend to look at many fields in the upper-layer
header -- so it's useful to have it all.

Something that might make sense is to specify something along the lines
of "if the size of the upper layer header is unknown (say, the upper
layer protocol is implemented as a loadable module, in userland, or the
like).

Thoughts?

Thanks!

If at some point ND had been successful for such address, I think such

For this kind of scenario, it's usually helpful if you can provide a
packet trace (e.g. tcpdump formated). That said, as noted by others the
Linux netdev might be a better place to ask this question... or for
instance, you might want to ask it on the ipv6hackers mailing-list:
<http://lists.si6networks.com/listinfo/ipv6hackers/>

Thanks - this clarifies.

It is OK if some implementations drop this "new kind" of PTB;
correct operation will still result. It would be better however
if those implementations were updated to honor the messages, and
this can be done in an incremental deployment fashion.

I don't think even that is safe. We are entering an age where we
will more and more see multiple levels of nested tunnels within
tunnels where the innermost nesting levels will see progressively
smaller MTUs. For example, RFC2473 tunnels invoke fragmentation
when the tunnel nesting level becomes too deep to fit within the
path MTU. Unfortunately, that can only be detected if PMTUD works.

Then, links that perform link adaptation will have no way of
offloading fragmentation and reassembly to the end systems.
With working IPv6 frag/reas, we should be able to do better
than that.

OK, thanks.

The sender needs to know that the receiver can reassemble at least
as much as 5000. It should then use IPv6 fragmentation to break the
packet up into fragments no larger than 1280 and send each fragment
to the receiver (another reason why IPv6 frag/reas *must* be fixed).

Yes; RFC4944 specifies a link adaptation method for IPv6 over
6lowpan.

Hi Remi,

A few months ago, I raised some concerns around RFC 6164 which permitted use=
 of /127 prefixes on inter-router p2p links.
You mention use of u/g bits and reserved IID range for 4rd
Don't you think that network operators who have by now implemented 6164 base=
d addressing in their networks would end up having to readdress portions of t=
heir network where they intend to implement 4rd?


Rgds,
Usman

FULL AGREEMENT that we don't want to modify any "already fielded standard".
If you believe such a change is needed for 4rd, PLEASE EXPLAIN.=20

If one configures an address that doesn't follow configuration constraints, i=
t may fail in various ways, but under its own responsibility.
For instance, if it has the wrong subnet prefix, it won't be reachable from a=
cross the Internet, like what may happen if it has a non-RFC4291-complying I=
ID that happens to be in the 4rd reserved range in a site where 4rd is activ=
ated.

>=20

>=20
> That's a nice handwave...

This is a fact, worth noting IMHO, especially since the particular example o=
f a non RFC4291-compliant address Ole gave didn't conflict with 4rd.

Your lack of interest for this point doesn't justify, IMHO, a so depreciatin=
g comment.=20

It doesn't prove anything, OK, and wasn't BTW claimed to prove anything in p=
articular.

Yet, the risk of manual misconfigurations that may conflict with the RFC 429=
1, which is indeed a risk, is mitigated by the fact that manual address conf=
iguration is AFAIK more an exception than a general practice.

RD

If you specify a minimum of 8 bytes that would cover most cases, wouldn't it?

I don't think you will find much enthusiasm among coders for a case statement
that adjusts the number of bytes according to the layer 4 protocol.

Not really. Firewalls look at many fields in the layer-4 headers -- and
such stuff can be past the first 8 bytes. e.g. OpenBSD PF looks at stuff
such as the initial TCP window for passive OS fingerprinting, such that
you can filter based on the OS type. For instance, the ability to look
at the TCP flags is mandatory for most firewalls.

There are a number of places where this could be taken care of:

* The IPv6 layer, with a case statement (as you describe) -- there are
not that many upper-layer protocols, anyway.
* The transport layer (where you know the MTU, and you know how many
bytes you're sending down the stack
* The user application (If you're going to insert extension headers, do
the math and make sure all the headers make it into the first fragment)


If we fail to include critical information in the first fragment, such
traffic will be dropped even more than it currently is.

Hi, Usman,

Thank you for this opportunity to clarify once more an important point.

2013-02-09 03:16, Usman Latif <osmankh@yahoo.com> :

> Hi Remi,

> A few months ago, I raised some concerns around RFC 6164 which =

The reason why no readdressing will be needed is tat RFC 6144 only =
concerns inter-router links. Their /127 IPv6 prefixes are distinct from =
those used with 64-bit IIDs.

Incidentally, I wrote myself:
- "it is a fact that, *for some addresses that aren't concerned with =
SLAAC*, typically some manually configured addresses, the IID structure =
of RFC 4291 can be ignored. One example where it is actually ignored is =
in RFC 6164  which deals with /127 prefixes on inter-router links. =
(Incidentally, I have been an active supporter of this RFC, as Miya =

But the job of this draft is to specify the "on the wire" behaviour of a
sending host. To do that, as far as I can see, you have specify how many
bytes of the transport header MUST be in the first fragment. Does it include
TCP options, for example? At the moment, the draft doesn't tell me what
to put in the code (regardless of where in the host stack this is coded).

BACKGROUND:

After this draft becomes a standard, and implementers have
time to update their code, there seems to be a good chance 
that more fragmented packets will be able to traverse 
various middleboxes (e.g. firewalls, NATs, whatever else).

Off list feedback indicates that for several middlebox 
implementers, it is important that the middlebox is able 
to examine the TCP Flags in any first fragment containing 
TCP as the terminal payload.  Reportedly, checks for invalid
TCP Flag combinations are considered essential in deciding
whether to allow a packet.  For UDP or ESP, however, the 
first 8 bytes is reportedly sufficient.

COMMENT:

Various folks makes a persuasive case that this draft 
ought to more explicitly specify, for each terminating 
payload type, how many bytes need to be included in the 
first fragment.

However, as someone who has worked on more than one IPv6
implementation, I disagree with Brian that adding a case 
statement to the existing IPv6 fragmentation code is a 
big deal in an IPv6 host implementation.  While one of
those implementations was in an ordinary host, two of 
those implementations were in embedded systems, so 
I am familiar with the constraints of embedded systems.

In any event, the I-D only needs specify a *minimum* 
number of bytes for each terminal payload type that is
to be included in the first fragment.  

So, purely for example, if ESP/UDP had a value of 8 bytes 
minimum, while TCP had a value of 16 bytes minimum, code 
would be compliant EITHER if it had a case statement OR 
if it always included at least 16 bytes.

PROPOSAL:

Perhaps Fernando could edit the draft to specify, on a 
per terminal payload basis, the minimum number of initial
bytes to include in the first fragment.

Purely for clarity, and one would hope this would be 
blatantly obvious already, I'd also suggest adding a 
sentence explicitly stating that an implementation MAY 
include more bytes than the minimum in its first fragments.

HOPE:

One would hope that after those 2 edits are made, then
this I-D would be ready to begin WG Last Call.

Cheers,

Ran

Exactly: And it requires to include all header up to the entire layer-4
header.

Yes. TCP options are part of the TCP header... so they should be there.

The short story is: all sort of devices are used to look at the layer-4
header. Legitimate traffic won't have the ipv6 header chain spanning
multiple fragments. So such packets will be dropped. We need to flag
them as appropriate, such that folks that might possibly send those
packets are aware that those packets won't probably survive in the network.

Hi Remi,

> The reason why no readdressing will be needed is tat RFC 6144 only concern=
s inter-router links. Their /127 IPv6 prefixes are distinct from those used w=
ith 64-bit IIDs.


So if I understand it correctly, if a PE-CE link already has a /127 prefix a=
ssigned to it- and we wanted to use the CE as a 4rd CE, we'll have to assign=
 an additional IPv6 prefix to the CE with 64-bit IIDs?

Pls share little detail with me in a scenario where a SP already has /127 wi=
th CEs and 4rd is needed from the CE

thanks,
Usman

Hi Usman,

/127 addressing and SLAAC is mutually exclusive, so I think it's out of the=
 scope of the problem, where we discuss if u/g bit should be meaningful als=
o for non-EUI-derived address.

Hi Remi,

The reason why no readdressing will be needed is tat RFC 6144 only concerns=
 inter-router links. Their /127 IPv6 prefixes are distinct from those used =
with 64-bit IIDs.

So if I understand it correctly, if a PE-CE link already has a /127 prefix =
assigned to it- and we wanted to use the CE as a 4rd CE, we'll have to assi=
gn an additional IPv6 prefix to the CE with 64-bit IIDs?

Pls share little detail with me in a scenario where a SP already has /127 w=
ith CEs and 4rd is needed from the CE

thanks,
Usman

Hi, Usman,

2013-02-09 03:16, Usman Latif <osmankh@yahoo.com<mailto:osmankh@yahoo.com>>=
 :

Hi Remi,

A few months ago, I raised some concerns around RFC 6164 which permitted us=
e of /127 prefixes on inter-router p2p links.
You mention use of u/g bits and reserved IID range for 4rd

Don't you think that network operators who have by now implemented 6164 bas=
ed addressing in their networks would end up having to readdress portions o=
f their network where they intend to implement 4rd?

The reason why no readdressing will be needed is tat RFC 6144 only concerns=
 inter-router links. Their /127 IPv6 prefixes are distinct from those used =
with 64-bit IIDs.

Incidentally, I wrote myself:
- "it is a fact that, *for some addresses that aren't concerned with SLAAC*=
, typically some manually configured addresses, the IID structure of RFC 42=
91 can be ignored. One example where it is actually ignored is in RFC 6164 =
which deals with /127 prefixes on inter-router links. (Incidentally, I have=

- "For addresses that aren't subject to SLAAC like, for instance, those of =
inter-router links of RFC6164, the RFC4291 structure of /64 IIDs isn't appl=

Le 2013-02-08 ? 11:59<x-apple-data-detectors://41>, Havard Eidnes <he@unine=
tt.no<mailto:he@uninett.no>> a ?crit :

However, there is nothing which enforces RFC4291-conforming IIDs for
(for instance) statically configured IPv6-addresses.
So in what way do
well defined u/g values for RFC4291-conforming IIDs help you?

1.
Users that manually configure their IPv6 addresses should be
knowledgeable about what they do.

If one configures an address has u=3Dg=3D1, unless it is for an
experiment, it is a human mistake (it conflicts with the IPv6
addressing architecture of RFC 4291). Depending on the context,
this mistake will have no consequence or will eventually have
to be corrected.

What's the operational failure mode?  Does it fail in a way which
would be obvious to the ones who has made this mistake, or will
simply some seemingly-random pairs of hosts fail to communicate?
I think it would be an engineering mistake to willfully create
hard-to-detect failure scenarios via a modification to already
fielded standards.

FULL AGREEMENT that we don't want to modify any "already fielded standard".
If you believe such a change is needed for 4rd, PLEASE EXPLAIN.

If one configures an address that doesn't follow configuration constraints,=
 it may fail in various ways, but under its own responsibility.
For instance, if it has the wrong subnet prefix, it won't be reachable from=
 across the Internet, like what may happen if it has a non-RFC4291-complyin=
g IID that happens to be in the 4rd reserved range in a site where 4rd is a=
ctivated.


Note that, even if one does such a mistake in a 4rd site, the
likelihood of using the 4rd IID prefix 0x0300 remains low.

That's a nice handwave...

This is a fact, worth noting IMHO, especially since the particular example =
of a non RFC4291-compliant address Ole gave didn't conflict with 4rd.

Your lack of interest for this point doesn't justify, IMHO, a so depreciati=
ng comment.


2.
On my home network, I know nobody is doing manual configuration.

That doesn't really prove anything.

It doesn't prove anything, OK, and wasn't BTW claimed to prove anything in =
particular.

Yet, the risk of manual misconfigurations that may conflict with the RFC 42=
91, which is indeed a risk, is mitigated by the fact that manual address co=
nfiguration is AFAIK more an exception than a general practice.

RD

<div>So if I understand it correctly, if a PE-CE link already has a /127 pr=

 assign an additional IPv6 prefix to the CE with 64-bit IIDs?</div>

<div>Pls share little detail with me in a scenario where a SP already has /=

Hi,

 

I am trying to write an IPv6 client in C++ using ACE framework. Even after
compiling with ACE_HAS_IPV6 preprocessor flag, I am not able to connect to
an IPv6 server.

Can somebody please guide me what extra steps I need to take for compiling
ACE with IPv6 support.

 

Thanks,

Jitendra

Hi, Bob, Ole,

RFC 6164 (/127 on inter-router links) is in fact an update of RFC4291 =
(IPv6 addressing architecture).
Yet, it isn't listed as such in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4291.
Shouldn't this be fixed?

Regards,
RD



PS: This point has been noted during the discussion below concerning 4rd =
CEs and u/g bits of IIDs.:=20

2013-02-10 04:43, Usman Latif <osmankh@yahoo.com>=20
...
> So if I understand it correctly, if a PE-CE link already has a /127 =
prefix assigned to it- and we wanted to use the CE as a 4rd CE, we'll =
have to assign an additional IPv6 prefix to the CE with 64-bit IIDs?
>=20
> Pls share little detail with me in a scenario where a SP already has =

According to RFC 6164, /127 prefixes are used ONLY on inter-router link.=20=

They cannot be used as customer-site IPv6 prefixes which, to comply with =
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4291#section-2.5.1, MUST permit 64-bit =

Each 4rd CE MUST therefore be delegated at least one IPv6 prefix having =
at most 64 bits (this doesn't depend on its WAN link having or not a =
/127).=20

(Correcting the Subject header)

That could be reported as an erratum against RFC 6164.

IN ADDITION to citing RFC 6164 as updating RFC 4291, this makes sense to =
me.

[WEG] FWIW, I suggested the erratum route when I realized that 6164 also fa=
iled to take obsolete 3627, and was told by IESG that I needed to write a s=
hort draft, hence 6547. Wish someone had brought up 4291 at the time when t=
he draft of 6547 was being reviewed...

anything that has a next header field is not the upper layer header.
the middlebox doesn't have access to anything following the ESP header.

what about ESP with NULL encryption?

what you are trying to archive is "the first fragment should include as =
much of the header chain as would be available if the packet
was reassembled", right? perhaps phrase it along those lines.

In the general case, there is no way to reliably (i.e. 100.00%)
know whether a transit ESP packet is using encryption or not.

There are published heuristics that seek to identify ESP
packets that might not be encrypted, but I don't know of
any fully reliable heuristics one might use (see above
for my definition of reliable).

Also, the IETF standardised WESP, but after asking around
and looking, I can't find even one implementation of WESP.  
So WESP appears to have either zero deployment or ignorably
low deployment.

Ran

Yes 6164 is only for inter-router links
I was under the impression that 4rd CE might use the WAN IPv6 address for st=
ateless tunnelling of IPv4 inside IPv6
Maybe this was a misunderstanding(?)
Or is it really upto the operator whether he wants to leverage the CE WAN IP=
v6 prefix or the allocated IPv6 prefix routed to the CE site
If the CE WAN happens to be a /64 prefix, could the 4rd leverage that?
What is the recommendation there


Regards,
Usman

Not sure what you mean. You mean that we shouldn't refer to ESP as an
"upper-layer header"? Or something else?

Please see Ran's response.

I would specify everything "from the sender side", since that where the
decision is to be made (e.g., "must include the entire IPv6 header chain
available prior to any possible fragmentation").

FWIW, if ESP is used, the encrypted bytes are the payload (not the
header), and hence we're fine. If tunneling is being employed (whether
with IPsec or with something else), anything inside the tunnel is,
strictly speaking, a different layer -- so including everything up till
the ESP header would be okay.

Thougths?

Thanks!

I believe the draft needs one more spin in order to be precise
about the number of bytes included in the upper layer header.

Consider that in addition to the common transport headers,
and ICMPv6, any protocol number defined in the IANA registry
that is not an extension header might in theory occur as the
final "next header". The phrasing in the draft at present does
not tell a programmer what to do in the general case:

         Note: If there is an upper layer header, only the header (and
         not its payload) are considered part of the "entire IPv6 header
         chain".

from the sender's perspective the ESP header is an intermediate header.
you need to make it clearer in the draft what you expect to see on the =
wire and how the host is supposed to behave.

In the 4rd specification, CE IPv6 prefixes are at most /64.
See Figure 5 in particular:

I have read this draft and support the work. The intention is good. The
detail is thorny.


Substantive Comment:

I think you're going to be asked lots of questions about what
constitutes an "IPv6 header chain," and to provide a tighter
specification of where it ends.

I'm sure there are people who wouldn't necessarily regard the contents
of the TCP header as being an integral part of an IPv6 header chain.

If I read RFC2460 "upper layer - a protocol layer immediately above
IPv6.  Examples are transport protocols such as TCP and UDP, control
protocols such as ICMP, routing protocols such as OSPF,  and internet or
lower-layer protocols being "tunneled" over (i.e., encapsulated in) IPv6
such as IPX, AppleTalk, or IPv6 itself."

So to me, a first-fragment that contained a complete IPv6 header with a
next-header value of 6 (an upper layer protocol) , but without
containing the TCP header itself, could also be considered a valid IPv6
header chain. However I'm sure we'd agree that'd be pretty useless for
stateless firewall filtering based solely on the first-fragment.

On the other hand, I know plenty of people who will certainly want to
apply a very granular filter on ICMPv6 Type and Code fields. Some ICMPv6
messages are required for normal operations, but others are useful in
network reconnaissance. Yet officially ICMPv6 is not called a header
AFAIK: it's a "message" with a "psuedo-header."

So I think we'll probably have to end up with an explicit specification
for the next-header values that constitute the first "upper-layer
protocol" together with the number of octets of that next header that
are mandatory to include, plus a default "last IPv6 header + X bytes"
for any unknown/new headers.

An alternative would be to make this an Informational RFC, and let
developers use "common sense" on "ensuring  that sufficient information
is included in the first fragment for a packet classifier located on the
forwarding path to be able to classify a packet as matching a filter
with a low probability of either false positives or false negatives"

It ain't just firewalls: there's all sorts of middleware boxes and
packet classifiers.

Suggest:

Various devices on the internet forward or process packets via a number
of alternative internal paths, each of which may be optimised to handle
specific packet types in different ways. Packets are generally sent for
processing by the various paths based on the complexity of the packet,
with the most optimised path being the fastest (low latency and/or high
throughput) but also the most limited, whilst other paths may be able to
handle more complex packet formats, albeit slower (higher latency and/or
lower throughput). Some of these paths may be implemented in hardware,
with a fixed number of clock cycles dedicated to processing each packet.
Larger packets with a lot of headers may have to be processed by the
more generic, slower paths, leading to lower overall network
performance.  This is one reason why the maximum size of header chains
needs to be limited.

Additionally, stateless processing of packets (where each packet can be
processed independently) can be far more efficient and require less
resources than stateful processing (where a device has to maintain state
between related packets, and match newly arriving packets to previously
observed flows). Fragmentation of the IPv6 header chain across multiple
fragments may force a device into stateful processing, again reducing
overall network or device performance. Or perhaps more likely, the
packet will simply be dropped, or not correctly processed by this device.


Add to the list under 5:?
 o  Specific transport-layer information e.g. ICMPv6 message Type and
Code fields.

I support publishing this draft as a Proposed Standard.

There has been more than ample time to review the draft, 
and various minor updates already have been made, 
so this seems ready to shop.

There was some discussion of this draft when it came out, but nothing
that led to any specific changes. We should perhaps emphasise that
it's complementary to draft-ietf-6man-oversized-header-chain.

I'd like to ask for opinions about taking this draft forward.

I won't be in Orlando, but the other author (Sheng) will be.

You can write what you like about firewalls needing to have an explicit
policy configured (manually) before dropping any packets.
And this standard will then (quite rightly) be ignored by every single
firewall manufacturer I know.

If an extension proves itself safe, easily parse-able, and useful, it
will be transported over the public Internet. If it doesn't, it will get
dropped.

Ray, the IETF is supposed to make the Internet work better. So we should
write down requirements for that to happen.

That parenthesis is a value judgement, but in any case, the idea of the
draft is to push implementors in the direction of parsing all well-defined
extensions, and of making policy control possible.

At the moment this is impossible. There is no place for firewall
implementors to find a master list of all well-defined extension headers
and no way for site IT managers to configure firewalls to block or allow
specific extension headers. So there is no way for a new extension
header to prove itself safe and viable. It's pure Catch 22.

Firewalls should be designed to make new extension headers subject
to user control, and the IETF should structure its designs, documents and
IANA registries to make life as easy as possible for both firewall
implementors and users.

That's what we need to fix. We can maybe state it more clearly in the draft;
thanks for pointing to the existing Catch 22.

Well IMHO I think the requirements are precisely the other way around:
extensions should be simple to parse, demonstrably not a security issue
or likely to cause harm, and useful:  not that firewalls should blindly
pass everything thrown at them. Hop by hop has already been labelled
potentially harmful in
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-krishnan-ipv6-hopbyhop-05. The market
is still deciding what headers are "good".

Agreed. I'd support a draft with these goals, but let's keep it realistic.

Providing a clear list of extensions in a repository, what their
benefits are, and how they work, is a completely different matter to
mandating behaviour of  middleware boxes that is directly contradictory
to current industry best-practice.

Agreed. Extensions should also clearly have been designed with firewalls
and other middleware boxes in mind. And new extensions should too.

Firewall code and other middleware box code will always significantly
lag IETF standards. I don't really see how the Uniform Format header
structure defined in http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6564 truly addresses
the firewall issue.

If we were starting from scratch I'd prefer that unknown extensions
should be easily "strippable", rather than having to drop the entire
packet if they cannot be parsed, or still having to traverse the full
chain without truly understanding the contents and then passing that
unknown content into a secure zone.

How you achieve that practically I don't really know.

Thinking out loud, we could potentially define yet another new extension
header that defines a fork in the header chain: next header field =
following(optional) header extensions,plus length to reach the next
header as per RFC6564; final header field (contained as header specific
data within the new header) =  top level protocol of the final header
value e.g. TCP= 6, plus offset to reach the final payload headerin
either octets or 8-octet units.

    0                   1                   2                   3
    0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
   |  Next Header  |  Hdr Ext Len  | FinalHeader  | offset to     |
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
   | final header  |                                               |
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

That in itself of course will not be fully backwards compatible. But at
least it would be a once-off action. And firewalls could strip out the
optional headers, whilst easily locating and parsing payload data.

There was some discussion of this draft when it came out, but nothing
that led to any specific changes. We should perhaps emphasise that
it's complementary to draft-ietf-6man-oversized-header-chain.

I'd like to ask for opinions about taking this draft forward.

Ray,

We have different prespectives. The next version of the draft will
try to make the case a bit clearer. On one specific point:

>> Thinking out loud, we could potentially define yet another new extension header 
>> that defines a fork in the header chain: next header field = following 
>> (optional) header extensions, plus length to reach the next header as per 
>> RFC6564; final header field (contained as header specific data within the new 
>> header) =  top level protocol of the final header value e.g. TCP= 6, plus offset 
>> to reach the final payload header in either octets or 8-octet units.

Please look at http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-zhang-6man-offset-option-01.txt,
although it got no traction here.

   Brian

My personal view is that it is very useful to have a single IANA =
registry that lists all IPv6 extension headers.  I would like to think I =
am fairly knowledgable about IPv6, and it's hard for me to find them =
all.  This is a win independent of what policy we recommend that =
firewall/middlebox/etc. vendors support.  Let's not loose that.

Indeed. That is one of the two proposals in the draft.

The other proposal is to specify what firewalls should do to make extension
headers deployable (subject to site policy). I think this is complementary to
the oversized-header-chain draft, which is necessary to remove some cases
that are unreasonable for any firewall to handle.

Indeed. That is one of the two proposals in the draft.

The other proposal is to specify what firewalls should do to make extension
headers deployable (subject to site policy). I think this is complementary =
to
the oversized-header-chain draft, which is necessary to remove some cases
that are unreasonable for any firewall to handle.

This isn't going to happen before IETF86, because of deadlines. We'll see
whether it's necessary after the next version is discussed.

Hello 6MAN folks,

I would like to announce, on behalf of the co-authors, the submission
of 2 drafts relating to VIN-based IPv6 addressing.
VIN stands for Vehicle Identification Number, and it is specifically
used in a context of IPv6 vehicular communications. These proposals
aim at providing discussion about a new mapping/conversion method from
VIN to ULA prefixes (guaranteed unique) and Interface Identifiers.

Please find the above mentioned documents at:
1) Vehicle Identification Number-Based IPv6 Interface Identifier
(VIID), at: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-imadali-its-vinipv6-viid-00
2) Vehicle Identification Number-Based Unique Local IPv6 Unicast
Addresses (VULA), at:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-imadali-its-vinipv6-vula-00

Your comments are welcome,

Cheers,
Sofiane.

I have the usual concerns about privacy.  I have no problem with someone
knowing the endpoint that is communicating is associated with a vehicle
(or that I, a human, am communicating from a vehicle).  However, if
someone can map easily from an IP address to a VIN (thus knowing the
specific vehicle from which the communication is happening), and I have
no choice but to reveal that information in order to communicate at all,
I am not comfortable.  In general, as an architectural principle, I want
the option to control how much personal information I reveal.  That's
called privacy.

Actual the problem is much simpler, it's not that easy to get the
unique ID of a vehicle today, however with the proposed solution it
become extremely easy.
Sort of the same idea that caused IPv6 to create all IPs based on the
mac address... we know how that ended, we created the privacy option.

Do we want todo it all over again?

... and that argument isn't really over.  And the legalities have not
been tested yet, particularly in Europe.  I'm not comfortable.

I also think a VIN-based IPv6 addressing is a bad idea.

People involved in ITS (Intelligent Transportation System) in other SDOs 
(ISO, ETSI, CEN) are using pseudonyms at L2 (see the SeVeCom project, or 
the PRESERVE project) and NEMO at L3 (see GeoNet, CVIS and the ITSSv6 
projects) so that location privacy is maintained when the vehicle is moving.

Regards,
Thierry Ernst.

In my experience the VIN is readily visible on most stationary vehicles 
(by virtue of  of of the locations being behind the windshield). using 
it as a host address certainly implies that it's being broadcast more 
widely.

=> Someone, somewhere (perhaps the IAB) needs to write an architectural
document to tell various industries to _stop_ doing that.
The IID is a set of bits that have no meaning, please stop trying to
create it in an industry/link layer technology-specific manner. It does do
anything and it's meaningless. If you want the correspondent to know that
you're a car with a particular VIN then put that in your application!

I think you're too strong with statements.  Many IPv-over-foo documents
exist and they do just that - create IID in a industry-specific manner.

That is a good point - if one wants a Server to determine that some
end-node is actually a vehicle (with details about vehicle type -
electrical) then better use a UDP payload, not necessarily an IP address
for it.

But I think you make an assumption which may be true or false.  It is
not necessarily true that we do that only for the application.

The need comes from further, and it may look simpler: we need to form
IPv6 addresses within a vehicle.

There are a number of solutions to realize it, but each has its
advantages and inconvenients.  Forming it from VIN has some advantages.

We can discuss this.

Well I agree with you in a sense.  Connecting a vehicle to the Internet
in that way makes it easier than before to find its VIN.

However, may I add that the VIN of a vehicle is very easy to get.  It is
displayed under the shield and by legislation it must be visible, for
cases like e.g. recover at accident scenes.  Despite its little font,
it's as visible as the license plate (I can send a photo if you wish, or
you could check a car's windshield bordering the frame).  Nobody 
complains about the visibility of the license plate.

No.

Privacy is a strong concern and we should take it into account, yes.

Scott,

I agree privacy is important.

An alternative method from R. Bless proposes to use a SHA output in the
prefix field of an address.  This has an advantage with respect to
privacy - it's hardly feasible to reversely derive the VIN of the
vehicle from the IPv6 address, slide 6 of
http://www.lara.prd.fr/_media/ipv6-its/2012-03-26-seis-kit-ietf83-its.pdf

That method alone has certain advantages, but also drawbacks.

If we consider the problem to be as simple as "how to form IPv6
addresses in a vehicle?" then one realizes that just forming a ULA
prefix for _within_ the vehicle may not be enough.  Communication
outside the vehicle (e.g. between two vehicles) may involve links which
may not be just plain Ethernet, and hence impossible to just use RFC2464
LL addresses on the outside of the vehicle.

In some cases it _is_ possible to get along with just LL/Ethernet
addresses between vehicles, but if/when
geonetworking/other-vehicular-link-layers are used, then that may not be
enough.

All in all, depending on the problem, the VIN-based addresses may be
necessary, provided that privacy concerns are addressed.

It's good location privacy is maintained, with these techniques.

The other privacy aspect mentioned seems to relate to protecting an
individual from attacker reversely deriving his/her VIN from the IP address.

One doesn't want a java-hacked Facebook in the Internet to allow all my
friends know my request came from a vehicle of type Fiat (I pretend
Ferrari :-)

I agree to the privacy concerns.

I do not understand the following:

>    Bits 55 and 56 that correspond to U/L bits are set accordingly to the
>    recommendations. 

I suppose the reference is to the U and G bits (in positions 6 and 7
in the IID, or 70 and 71 in the IPv6 address, in IETF notation).
But what "recommendations" apply? The description in RFC 4291
refers to the equivalent bits in an IEEE address, so there is
no recommendation that is relevant to a VIN.

Also, I do not wish to broadcast my VIN number to the world.
While VIN numbers are not a big secret, associating my on line
transactions with my car's identity is definitely a big no-no.

Regards
   Brian

How someone might walk along the street and see a VIN has nothing to do
with Internet privacy.  If this mapping mechanism is adopted, one MUST
reveal the specific vehicle communicating in order to communicate at
all.  That is not "taking privacy into account".  Most people have no
idea what can be derived from correlated data.

By definition, any prefix that can be used like this is not a ULA prefix,
and has no place under fc00::/7. ULA prefixes are not to be routed externally.

Yes. That's why, in any ULA deployment where some stability is needed,
you will only regenerate the ULA prefix in extreme circumstances
(typically a "factory reset").

Yes, which is a very good thing from the privacy point of view.

This is completely unacceptable as it contradicts the most basic aspect
of ULAs: the L stands for Local.

Something that is globally routed or externally accessible is by definition
not a ULA.

I'm pretty sure one of my cars has an IMEI, a bluetooth mac address and 
one on the wifi.

I would imagine that link layer technology would drive what sort of L2 
identifer is used for a given technology e.g. wifi bluetooth


      802.15.4 and so on. and that if that's a mac address it's
      available for use as an upper layer identifier in a fashion we
      understand.

A vin uniquely identifies a vehicle not a link layer interface. If you 
application requires that (toll transponder does that effectively) then 
need to expose that in some way to the application. address selection or 
mac addresses for that matter is far too weak a mechanism to serve as an 
identity token.

YEs, I agree with the concern.

Such a concern would be all the more valid if there were a specification
which said 'each vehicle MUST form its IIDs based on their VINs'.  But
this is not the case.  We are not trying for such a definitive document.

We are certain that some vehicles will never use this VIN-based
addressing scheme.  At that point, someone receiving a packet with a
certain source address will never know whether that packet is from a
vehicle or from something else.  A reversal of the IP into a number will
never be sure to be a VIN.

The picture is finer.  It may be that the address formed from VIN is
actually an ULA, which reaches some Servers in a domain, but not the
Internet at large. (maybe reach another vehicle in the same highway).

It may also be that the protocol Mobile IP/NEMO is used, or not.  When
it is used, it may be that the tunnel between MR and HA is protected by
ESP, hence the address inside the tunnel (the ULA derived from VIN) is
not visible.

The HA - Home Agent - in the infrastructure is controlled by the same
entity who gave birth to that vehicle, so it may rightfully need to know
its identity. (garage recall a vehicle because of particular fault).

> Most people have no idea what can be derived from correlated data.

Yes, I am part of that most people.  I have no idea and I am personally
afraid of what may be correlated about what I send on Internet.

Any method of predictive mapping should take care of privacy.

ULA prefixes are not to be routed externally, as long as we're clear 
about what is external and internal.

In the vehicular communications scope, one often talks about 'inside a 
vehicle' (V) and 'outside of vehicle' (V2V or V2I).  But it's not clear 
as of yet whether two vehicles form a domain ('inside the two vehicles') 
or each vehicle is a domain in itself.

It's not clear whether the Border Router of ULAs is the same as the 
Mobile Router in vehicular context (the Router deployed in a vehicle).

The number of IP devices in one vehicle is not that large as the number 
of IP devices at a classical 'site', although several IP subnets may be 
present in one vehicle.

One may see several such neighboring vehicles to form a 'domain'.  This 
may be even truer if none is connected to infrastructure.

At that point it may be that ULAs span several vehicles.

I dont see what may forbid the use of ULAs between several vehicles. 
(although I may be wrong).

Yes, and if I am not wrong, ULAs are globally unique.

A ULA is not globally routable.  We need to clarify this in the draft.

There is no guaranty that it will ever be unique, just that the chance
of a collision are quite low.

I agree.  The same with VINs - they are globally unique, with a
probability of collision.  There exists a paying non-IETF standard
document which requires each VIN to be unique, but implementations may
fault.

I think there is no risk of tainting one's uniqueness properties when
mapping.

But the fact that _some_ of them may be VINs make it a potential source 
of data mining, which should be avoided if at all possible.

There is no reason that manufacturers cannot keep their own mapping of 
VIN to IID, and making this process NON-standard (that is, not 
documenting a standard way to do it) will slightly decrease the value of 
that data, although wouldn't necessarily help the Ferrari-nee-Fiat 
problem. :)

Actually, I suspect that if the "OEM-specific-256bit Key" gets exposed =

It is unclear to me who exactly generates the address -- if the =

Data mining should be avoided if possible.  The methods proposed are not
final, and they should be improved.

I would like to add about data mining.

Outside the VIN discussion, it is already possible to not use Privacy
Addresses.  For example, a recent experiment with IPv6 cellular client
shows me that the IPv6 addresses of the smartphone has the IID derived
from a manufacturer's ID.

To some extent this is a privacy issue, because data mining could find
out that the manufacturer of my equipment is that brand, and propose me
that brand when I buy a tablet on amazon.

In that sense, I doubt it is possible for anybody to impose the use of
Privacy Addresses (randon number in IID, if I am not wrong) to e.g. many
cellular operators.  It is still seen as an option (I think).

The same for VIN - if a use is found about the conversion of VIN to an
IP address, it is good to build in privacy, in a certain sense.  But
it's hard to make sure it's accepted.

Rejecting VIN-based addresses just because of privacy aspects is
debatable, IMHO.

I agree.  Manufacturers may indeed keep their own mapping VIN-to-IID, or
other VIN-to-prefix mappings.  This would not be visible to Internet.

I would to stress further that the two drafts we propose are simply
methods.  One is to generate an IID and the other is to generate a ULA
prefix, each from same VIN.

Depending on how IID and ULA are combined, and how the connection to
Internet is made (tunnel or not, IPsec or not, etc) and how the address
architecture plan for vehicles is made, various Privacy issues may
arise, or may not.

I think I may need to actually better expose the problem: how to form
IPv6 addresses for vehicles. (yes we know these already exist: DHPCv6,
PRefix Delegation on cellular, stateless autoconf, NAT, NPT, 64share).

"Here we need a change of approach: Businesses must use their power of
innovation to improve the protection of privacy and personal data from
the very beginning of the development cycle. Privacy by Design is a
principle that is in the interest of both citizens and businesses.
Privacy by Design will lead to better protection for individuals, as
well as to trust and confidence in new services and products that will
in turn have a positive impact on the economy. I have seen some
encouraging examples, but much more needs to be done." -- Viviane

an IID for each case.

What the replies so far have said is that they should not be done at all.

The fact that it's possible for people to voluntarily configure their 
system to be less private doesn't have anything to do with creating a 
system to tie VINs and IIDs that the user will not be able to opt out 
of. There are valid reasons not to use privacy addresses, there are no 
good reasons to do the latter at all, and many reasons that you shouldn't.

I snipped the rest of your argument along this line because it falls 
into the "faulty premises lead to faulty conclusions" fallacy.

> Rejecting VIN-based addresses just because of privacy aspects is
> debatable, IMHO.

Any argument to the effect that there should be a way to tie together 
VINs and IIDs should come with sufficient justification to overcome the 
privacy concerns that have been almost universally expressed by a wide 
variety of posters (at least twice now). I haven't seen such a 
justification.

Then the problem is solved, full stop.

This is sufficient for the onboard communication network, which was
the problem we addressed. ULAs are a good match, since these addresses
should not leak.

Our model was to have a security gateway for external connectivity
and we assume that we may have various different access technologies
such as LTE, WLAN, Bluetooth, and so on, i.e., multi-homing and
changing addresses.

I don't see any requirement to use algorithmically
defined VIN-based addresses _between_ two vehicles:
usually cars don't know which other cars are currently around them
and especially they cannot know their VINs a priori.
So usually you would need some kind of discovery protocol using
well-known group addresses in order to figure out the unicast IPv6
addresses.

I don't see the need yet if external communication is concerned.

 Roland

Hi Randy,

Yes, I know in practice they do leak, that's why I wrote "should".
My statement was a little bit imprecise - I apologize.
No leakage wasn't actually my point rather than internal use only.
So no matter which kind of addresses you employ for "internal
use" only, they may accidentally leak due to misconfiguration,
failures etc. The advantage of ULAs is though: if they leak, they
are still unique with a high probability, hopefully causing less
harm than rfc1918 addresses.

Regards,
 Roland

for more assurance of such wonderful properties, and no probabilities,
you may want to check out ipv6 global address space

Agreed, this is probably even a better choice, however,
some manufacturers do not want to pay for non-routable
IPv6 global address space and depending on the number
of manufactured automotives, they need a larger prefix.

After reading the email thread on <draft-carpenter-6man-ug-00.txt>, the =
6man chairs think the sense of the work group is:

1) The "u and g" bits did not end up being as useful as was thought when =
RFC4291 was standardized.  Consequently, we don't think there is any =
need to continue the notion that an IID with "u" set to 1 means the IID =
contains a globally unique token.

2) Under the current scheme defined in RFC4291, the "u" bit only means =
that the node creating the IID asserts that it is globally unique.  It =
is incorrect to make any other assumptions about what is in the IID.  =
The IID should be viewed as opaque by third parties.

3) There isn't any need to change any running code.  There isn't any =
operational problem with the current definition of the "u" and "g" bits. =
  Removing the properties for these bits should only apply to new =
standards that define new methods to create IIDs.

4) DAD should, of course, continue to be used as is specified.

5) Having <draft-carpenter-6man-ug-00.txt> become a w.g. document to =
clarify these issues would be useful and we think there is support in =
the w.g. for this.

Bob,

That's very much what the authors got from the discussion. We plan
a -01 draft before the cutoff, with many clarifications in the text.

Regards

Hi,
Thanks for your interest Roger, your question is very pertinent and I
wanted to share it with the group (hope you don't mind bringing this
offlist mail to the list).

Indeed, one needs to understand the context before understanding the
possible uses of the method.

First, a bit of state of the art that couldn't appear in the drafts.
VIN is not a private information. It is meant to be public. I gave a
list of ISO specifications that say exactly How a VIN is built, Where
it should appear, How to reverse engineer it. In a nutshell, the VIN
is alphanumeric, it appears on your wind shield, and you can break it
down to 3 pieces: the manufacturer ID, the vehicle's description, and
the vehicle ID.

     - What networking questions/perspectives should these VIN-related
data trigger  ?
     - Today in a closed operator domain, the vehicle (Mobile Router)
can generate a ULA prefix for site-scoped communications. It is
subject to collisions if used on a large number of vehicles (10^4 or
more - RFC4193). In the vehicular context you're facing this
limitation.
For applications such as remote diagnosis, or other services
(involving access to in-vehicle Machines), the solution we propose
allows to create a predictable (deterministic manner) unique
(collision-free) prefix, that in a closed loop (operator domain,
manufacturer domain) allows you to determine which vehicle to access
with which prefix: No DNS, No Prefix Delegation, No DHCPv6, nor any
other additional artefact involved.
Again, with this proposal, if you are an operator/manufacturer with a
list of your vehicles fleet, you can determine a list of ULA prefixes
to access each one of them: No additional protocol involved, no
collisions.

     - What applications can be enabled by the use of this kind of
VIN-based Prefixes and IDs ?
     - This also answers the question of regarding those 2 proposals
only from a privacy-concerns standpoint. Vendor web-based apps where
you give a VIN code and  returns the history of a vehicle already
exists. When selling your car, a buyer can look up your VIN in a
database and get a history of car accidents, repairs ...etc all
related to your vehicle. This is no science-fiction, it has already
been used in the US for quite a while. Here is on example googling the
keywords (second hand car VIN history):
http://www.edmunds.com/car-buying/vin-check.html

     - About the privacy concerns.
     - I am no expert in the field of privacy. I do understand the
concerns though, and this is why I chose to trigger them in the draft
and in my research work before it is evoked in the mailling list. My
humble opinion about the subject is that we should not mistake VIN for
a MAC. Not compare them, and not apply blindly the concepts of MAC
randomization for VIN-based IIDs/Prefixes. The compromise of
(Uniqueness/randomization And Privacy) that is studied and
standardized in RFC 4941 for IID, should not directly apply to VIN
with no regard to the nature of the object we are using. Please have a
look at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VIN_Etching, which should inform
you more about another possible application of VIN (in general, not
just networking) which is car theft prevention, to understand why
*your VIN is a public good and not a private property that you buy
with your car*.

To sum up; in order not to trigger (too soon) the privacy concerns and
be blocked by that, the primal use case (domain, site) would be a
closed operator network, or car manufacturer in the manufacture
(closed loop). This method allows us to set internal routing to access
the in-vehicle devices, by a deterministic manner: VIN --> ULA prefix.
No additional protocol is needed to do that. Any service provided by
this devices (monitoring vehicle state for example) is a use case that
applies to this addressing approach.

Thanks for reading and feedback;
Cheers
Sofiane

Hello all,

We wanted to make you aware of a document we submitted a while back =
--unfortunately *someone*[0] forgot to put -6man- somewhere in the =
title.

This document explains issues that *operators* have with "long header =
chains" and devices that need to see the L4 information.

We understand that this is likely to be a controversial document, and =
will spark lively discussion[1].=20

Of course, but what's wrong with that? I too would be in favor of using ULA=

it would be very appropriate, as in vehicles, there is always a
probability of collision.

I don't think it's  clear enough in the draft that we're talking about
closed circuit system, not communicated initiated from within the car
to outside, any outside device  including other cars. The case of
accessing the car's network from a service point of view are still
inside the car's domain.

Am I understanding this correct?


Another issue is the use of the term site, you could explain how you
are using that term.
I personal would consider any inner car communication to be within a
site, including when I connect my phone to the on-board media-system
to stream music or movie. Any communication toward outside the car are
out of the site.

as said above, I understand those two draft to talk about inner car
communication, not communication toward _any_ device outside the car.
That include communication to other nearby cars, parking automate and
more.

Or to sum it up as I see it with regard to the privacy issue - the
issue is when the car, or someone in the car use an IP toward _any_
outside device that can be traced back to the VIN of any car
(vehicles).

no problem, good to get such a good explanation back :)

Are the data structures involved in first hop routing for IPv6 (see RFC
2461, 4861 and 491 "conceptual models") visible in user space?That is,
is it possible to see what's going on as it happens? If so, how? Or is
it a black box?

Regards, K.

Hi,

This version is very much clarified following the WG discussion, and
we hope that it reflects the Chairs' summary from yesterday. Please
read it as a new document; there are too many changes for the diffs
from the previous version to be useful.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.


	Title           : The U and G bits in IPv6 Interface Identifiers
	Author(s)       : Brian Carpenter
                          Sheng Jiang
	Filename        : draft-carpenter-6man-ug-01.txt
	Pages           : 9
	Date            : 2013-02-21

Abstract:
   The IPv6 addressing architecture defines a method by which the
   Universal and Group bits of an IEEE link-layer address are mapped
   into an IPv6 unicast interface identifier.  This document clarifies
   the status of those bits for interface identifiers that are not
   derived from an IEEE link-layer address, and updates RFC 4291
   accordingly.

	Title           : Applicability Statement for the use of IPv6 UDP Datagram=
s with Zero Checksums

Abstract:
   This document provides an applicability statement for the use of UDP
   transport checksums with IPv6.  It defines recommendations and
   requirements for the use of IPv6 UDP datagrams with a zero UDP
   checksum.  It describes the issues and design principles that need to
   be considered when UDP is used with IPv6 to support tunnel
   encapsulations and examines the role of the IPv6 UDP transport
   checksum.  The document also identifies issues and constraints for
   deployment on network paths that include middleboxes.  An appendix
   presents a summary of the trade-offs that were considered in
   evaluating the safety of the update to RFC 2460 that updates use of
   the UDP checksum with IPv6.

Abstract:
   This document provides an update of the Internet Protocol version 6
   (IPv6) specification (RFC2460) to improve the performance in the use
   case where a tunnel protocol uses UDP with IPv6 to tunnel packets.
   The performance improvement is obtained by relaxing the IPv6 UDP
   checksum requirement for any suitable tunnel protocol where header
   information is protected on the "inner" packet being carried.  This
   relaxation removes the overhead associated with the computation of
   UDP checksums on IPv6 packets used to carry tunnel protocols.  The
   specification describes how the IPv6 UDP checksum requirement can be
   relaxed for the situation where the encapsulated packet itself
   contains a checksum.  The limitations and risks of this approach are
   described, and restrictions specified on the use of the method.

WG,

This version of the document has gotten some changes due to IESG
discussion. The changes that has been applied of significance are:

- Clarification on the relation to regular UDP and UDP-Lite and when
zero UDP makes sense. (Section 2.4 + some other places)

- Discussion of what a protocol designer needs to consider when dealing
with router fast path implementations.

- A security issue with the previous bullet.

- Various tweaking of some formulations.

I recommend that anyone interest to review the new version.

Cheers

Magnus

WG,

This document has less changes than UDP zero document. However, please
review also these changes.

The largest change is the expansion of the security consideration.

Cheers

A similar issue is likely to emerge with other mobile device - mobile
device communication,where there are a large number of mobile devices
circulating globally, but relatively few of them are present in any one
given area at any given time e.g. wearable computing, medical monitors,
RFID tags attached to small articles in transit, pet ID chips that warn
the owner if they stray......

IMHO it is a bad idea to define any sort of static mapping between L8
identifiers and L3/L2.

64 bits of IID are simply not going to be enough to encode adequate
semantics for all envisioned mobile applications.

SLAAC (using MAC as the universal seed) is almost certainly going to be
less likely to suffer collisions than any number of competing
industry-specific standards that overload the IID space.

IMHVO The industry should generate prefixes/addresses based on existing
standards, and then perform any dynamic VIN / Pet ID / L8 ID mapping via
some (industry-specific) protocol to identify the specific vehicle/ pet/
shirt as appropriate. There is perhaps a role here for the IETF to
assist in defining a L3<->L8 mapping protocol, especially for links with
rapidly changing members, and which includes an industry identifier and
an industry specific portion.

Hi,

I suggest that the draft should focus only on describing the operational
issues with as much precision as possible. It's only the last paragraph
of section 3 and the brief section 4 that will be controversial, and
as always it's best to start with the facts, all the facts, before
reaching conclusions.

A missing topic is load balancers, where the issue is of considerable
importance. There's some discussion of the extension header issue
in draft-ietf-intarea-flow-label-balancing.

I'm surprised there's no reference to draft-ietf-6man-oversized-header-ch=
ain.

Regards
   Brian

Yup. The conclusion isn't (yet!) "Long headers are hard, let's just =
deprecate them" -- the draft is intended to explain the problems, start =
discussions and make folk aware of the fact that a number of folk are =
dropping these sorts of packets.=20

The last parts of the draft are there for a few reasons:
1: Drafts that simply say "Here is an issue" without bothering to =
propose any sort of solution always feels (to me at least) as though the =
authors haven't bothered and are expecting someone else to solve all =
their issues for them=85.

2: This is a strawman proposal -- it is (IMO) easier to discuss the =
issues if there is a proposal. This may not be *the* solution, but at =
the moment it is at least something we can use for discussions / poke =
holes in. We did discuss at length what all solutions there could be, =
and they went something like this:

a: the network should never have to look at L4 info / look past the IP / =
HbH bits --- unfortunately this misses real world requirements (which we =
reed to capture in the draft)

b: hardware vendors should simply solve the architectural / performance =
issues  -- this required too much pixie dust. It also doesn't solve the =

c: L4 info could be copied to *just* after the IP header (and then some =
handwaving to make sure that the L4 info here matches the L4 info in the =
upper-layer protocol) -- this has many issues..

d: what we suggested / formally deprecating all headers=20

e: hopefully the IETF / 6MAN will point at some really obvious solution =
and we can breath a sign of relief and abandon the draft.


3: Having something slightly controversial sparks discussion and helps =
to get folk involved :-P

Yup, both of those were an oversight, for which I apologize -- =
oversized-header-chain was referenced, but got eaten during an 'svn =
merge' that wen't horribly wrong (which also ate the -6man- in the =
title). Not referencing / discussing =
draft-ietf-intarea-flow-label-balancing was simply a stupid omission.=20

in. For some reason this always happens during some other crisis and you =

Sure, but a proposal that removes a major part of the design of IPv6
simply can't fly right out of the box (excuse my metaphor).

I suspect that there are solutions that don't need pixie dust, but which
do require product redesign, and the IETF often enough calls for product
redesign. Anyway... I do think that discussion is premature.

Hi,

This is a significant update compared to the -01 version: better justification,
and carefully updated firewall requirements (in terms of SHOULD, MUST,
and defaults). There are also editorial changes for clarity.

	Title           : Transmission of IPv6 Extension Headers
	Author(s)       : Brian Carpenter
                          Sheng Jiang
	Filename        : draft-carpenter-6man-ext-transmit-02.txt

	Date            : 2013-02-21

Abstract:
   Various IPv6 extension headers have been defined since the IPv6
   standard was first published.  This document updates RFC 2460 to
   clarify how intermediate nodes should deal with such extension
   headers and with any that are defined in future.  It also specifies
   how extension headers should be registered by IANA, with a
   corresponding minor update to RFC 2780.

Abstract:
   The document describes a proxy based mechanism allowing the use of
   Duplicate Address Detection (DAD) by IPv6 nodes in a point-to-
   multipoint architecture with "split-horizon" forwarding scheme,
   primarily deployed for Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) and Fiber access
   architectures.  Based on the DAD signalling, the first hop router
   stores in a Binding Table all known IPv6 addresses used on a point-
   to-multipoint domain (e.g.  VLAN).  When a node performs DAD for an
   address already used by another node, the first hop router replies
   instead of this last one.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts director=

 This draft is a work item of the IPv6 Maintenance Working Group of the IET=
F.

	Title           : Applicability Statement for the use of IPv6 UDP Datagram=
s with Zero Checksums
	Author(s)       : Godred Fairhurst
                          Magnus Westerlund
	Filename        : draft-ietf-6man-udpzero-12.txt

Abstract:
   This document provides an applicability statement for the use of UDP
   transport checksums with IPv6.  It defines recommendations and
   requirements for the use of IPv6 UDP datagrams with a zero UDP
   checksum.  It describes the issues and design principles that need to
   be considered when UDP is used with IPv6 to support tunnel
   encapsulations and examines the role of the IPv6 UDP transport
   checksum.  The document also identifies issues and constraints for
   deployment on network paths that include middleboxes.  An appendix
   presents a summary of the trade-offs that were considered in
   evaluating the safety of the update to RFC 2460 that updates use of
   the UDP checksum with IPv6.

Dear authors,

	Very interesting document and very valuable to document the current
behavior of the A, M and O flags (that have caused some headaches to
some including myself when troubleshooting IPv6).

	I see that has been submitted as "Proposed Standard" but I failed to
find what you are proposing.

	Would it better to be submitted as "Informational" and then look how to
indicate the correct behavior of the flags? or just as "Informational"?

Regards.
as

I presented a draft discussing M flag behavior in 6man @ietf84, and there were some feedbacks arguing the same issue. This draft analyzed all the three flags, and provided test result of current implementations, it showed the behavior of different mainstream desktop OSes have varied. The ambiguous and variation might cause operational problems, such as renumbering (used to discuss in 6renum WG and been documented in the WG drafts), cold start problem, and management gaps .etc.

Hi, Arturo and all

That was my mistake. I derived this draft from a template and forgot to cha=
nge it.=20
It should be "Informational", thanks for finding this bug.

	Good.

	Regarding a possible next step. Are you guys planning to propose a
"correct" behavior of the flags? It may be worth to try.

Abstract:
   This draft defines new Router Advertisement options for configuring
   next hop routes on the mobile or fixed nodes.  Using these options,
   an operator can easily configure nodes with multiple interfaces (or
   otherwise multi-homed) to enable them to select the routes to a
   destination.  Each option is defined together with definitions of
   host and router behaviors.

Bing,

I as able to review the draft and agree this needs to be documented and
discussed.  I have had many frustrating nights dealing with my multiple
OSs at home and figuring out what behaviour I was trying to expect when
changing the upstream router's settings (M/O/A).

I think the problem space discussion within the draft should be enough to
have a preliminary discussion in the WG.  I know there have been issues in
the past with various opinions on what the M/O bits (for example) should
or should not be used for - or how authoritative they should be.

If the groups can agree that there is in fact a problem, then I would
agree with Arturo that we can have a constructive follow-up
draft/discussion on the corrective action.

Lets get past step 1 and agree there is an issue (or not); then go down
the more sensitive path of agreeing to the corrective action.

Thanks for putting this together.

Regards,

Victor Kuarsingh

This is interesting. Thanks for doing these tests and submitting the result=
s.

When testing the switching behavior, I'm curious for the " SLAAC-only host =
receiving A=3D0&M=3D1 " case as to what you set the Preferred Lifetime to, =
when you set A=3D0. I'm guessing Preferred Lifetime > 0?
Since RFC 4862 states "A preferred address becomes deprecated when its pref=
erred lifetime expires", I would only have expected a host to deprecate a S=
LAAC-obtained address if the RA message set Preferred Lifetime to zero. It =
sounds like the case where the RA is changed from A=3D1 and Preferred Lifet=
ime > 0 to A=3D0 and Preferred Lifetime > 0 is ambiguous. I'm not quite sur=
e what the use case is for separating the A flag and Preferred Lifetime set=
tings. Did you also run the test by changing to A=3D0 and Preferred Lifetim=
e =3D 0? I would hope that there would be consistent behavior in that case.

For the "DHCPv6-only host receiving A=3D1&M=3D0" case, I'm curious as to wh=
ether you also tried sending a DHCPv6 Reconfigure message and forcing the h=
ost to release the DHCPv6-assigned address; and send A=3D1&M=3D0 in an RA d=
irectly after sending the Reconfigure. I'm not sure what the use case is fo=
r trying to force the release or deprecation of a DHCPv6 address via flags =
in an RA message. Once a host has a DHCPv6 address, I would have expected i=
ts subsequent behavior relating to that address and that DHCPv6 server to b=
e governed by RFC 3315. The Linux/MAC behavior appears consistent with what=
 I would have expected. The Windows 7 does not. I'm unaware of even a "hint=
" that suggests RA flags have a role in governing DHCPv6 behavior once RFC =
3315 is in play.

Hi,=0A=0AI've had a quick read though, I'll try to do a thorough one in the=
 next week or so.=0A=0AThanks for writing this, I've been thinking about do=
ing something similar over the last few months since, IIRC, I heard about W=
indows 7 invalidating IPv6 addresses learned via DHCPv6 when SLAAC was enab=
led and DHCPv6 was disabled on a link.=0A=0AA few thoughts I've had which m=
ay be useful -=0A=0AFirstly, I came to realise that the mistake being made =
by Windows 7 was the assumption that the aging of the assigned IPv6 address=
es was tightly coupled to the DHCPv6 session state, meaning that if DHCPv6 =
went away, so would the assigned addresses. This is generally the way DHCPv=
4 has worked. However, in IPv6/DHCPv6, it seems the address lifetime values=
 in the IA_NA are not coupled to the T1 and T2 times, so if DHCPv6 goes awa=
y (perhaps because the M bit was switched off in a latter RA), the configur=
ed IPv6 addresses should be left to age out as per their preferred and vali=
d lifetimes.=0A=0AThe other thing I noticed was that the M RA flag and the =
PIO A flags aren't mutually exclusive - I couldn't find any text in RFC4861=
 that says if the M bit is switched on, the PIO A flags must be switched of=
f and vice-versa. So that suggests that the DHCPv6 and SLAAC can co-exist, =
and I think that is quite reasonable if you're transitioning a link from DH=
CPv6 to SLAAC address configuration or vice-versa.=0A=0AThinking about it m=
ore, I came realise that DHCPv6 and SLAAC are _address configuration_ metho=
ds, but are not address aging methods - IPv6 takes care of address aging vi=
a it's preferred and valid aging mechanisms, regardless of the address conf=
iguration method. Static assignment is also just an address configuration m=
ethod, although typically the addresses don't age out, but only because the=
y're normally set to infinity. Perhaps in the future there might be other a=
ddress configuration methods.=0A=0AI didn't seem to be able to find an RFC =
that made it clear that address configuration and address aging are quite s=
eparate, so perhaps this ID could be the one.=0A=0ARegarding this text:=0A=
=0A'For the host behavior, there is an explicit rule in the SLAAC specifica=
tion [RFC4862]: "If the Autonomous flag is not set, silently ignore the Pre=
fix Information option."'=0A=0AI think RFC5942, "IPv6 Subnet Model: The Rel=
ationship between Links and Subnet Prefixes." updates that advice, as the P=
IO option is used to indicates which prefix/range of addresses are on-link,=

> We submitted a new draft to discuss the SLAAC/DHCPv6 interaction gaps.

Some time ago I wrote quite a long reply on this list about it. I've
changed my mind on a few points, and here's my current thinking, for
what it's worth. I think an update to the relevant RFCs (4861?) should
be written that makes the following unambiguous statements about the
flags.

1: The O and M flags are independent of each other.

The O flag implies nothing about address configuration, and the M flag
implies nothing about whether ancillary information is available.
However, DHCPv6 itself will supply ancillary information along with
address information, so a host doing stateful DHCPv6 SHOULD accept and
use the information returned with addresses rather than do additional,
separate stateless DHCPv6 queries. If a host accepts the ancillary
information in response to a stateful DHCPv6 query, then the valid and
preferred lifetimes of the ancillary data MUST be set to those of the
received address(es).

2: A valid RA can have both the O and the M flags set.

3: The M flag, if set, means that a DHCPv6 service is available for
stateful automatic address configuration by the hosts on the link. The
presence of a set M flag makes no statement about whether hosts should
use the service. The absence of a set M flag makes no statement about
whether a DHCPv6 service is available.

A host SHOULD perform stateful DHCPv6 address configuration if it sees a
set M flag in an RA. However, it SHOULD NOT do so if it already has one
or more addresses on the receiving interface that were acquired via
stateful DHCPv6.

A host MAY attempt to obtain addresses via DHCPv6 without seeing an RA
at all. Rationale: The host may be in a network containing a DHCPv6
server, but no router.

A host MAY attempt to obtain addresses via DHCPv6 even if it sees an RA
with no M flag set. Rationale: There may be multiple routers on a link,
not all of which are advertising an M flag.

4: The O flag, if set, means that a stateless DHCPv6 service is
available. The presence of a set O flag makes no statement about whether
hosts should use the service. The absence of a set O flag makes no
statement about whether a DHCPv6 service is available.

A host SHOULD perform a stateless DHCPv6 query when it sees a set O flag
in an RA. However, it SHOULD NOT do so if it has already acquired
information via stateless DHCPv6 and the preferred lifetime of that
information has not yet expired.

A host MAY attempt stateless DHCPv6 without seeing an RA at all.
Rationale: The host may be in a network containing a DHCPv6 server, but
no router.

A host MAY attempt stateless DHCPv6 even if it sees an RA with no O flag
set. Rationale: There may be multiple routers on a link, not all of
which are advertising an O flag.

5: Once configured, a DHCPv6 address SHOULD NOT be deconfigured until
its valid lifetime has expired.

Also, an address MUST NOT be deconfigured solely because an RA is seen
with no set M flag. However, a host MAY reduce the valid lifetime of an
address to two hours if an RA is seen with no set M flag. Rationale:
There may be multiple routers in a network, not all of which are
advertising a set M flag. Deconfiguring an address based solely on an RA
with no set M flag could result in an address "flap", where one RA
causes the address to be configured, the next causes it to be
deconfigured. Furthermore, the "contract" between the DHCPv6 server and
the host has stipulated that the host may use the address for the extent
of the stated valid lifetime. Reducing the valid lifetime to no less
than two hours prevents a trivial denial of service attack while
permitting an administrator to renumber more quickly if necessary.

6: Information obtained via stateless DHCPv6 SHOULD be considered valid
until the valid lifetime of the address(es) to which it pertains expires
OR the valid lifetime of the ancillary information expires OR until
another successful stateless DHCP query is performed for the relevant
address(es), whichever comes first.

Also, information obtained via stateless DHCPv6 MUST NOT be discarded
solely because an RA is seen with no set O flag. Rationale: There may be
multiple routers in a network, not all of which are advertising a set O
flag. Discarding information based on an RA with no set O flag could
result in the information "flapping", where one RA causes the
information to be obtained, the next causes it to be discarded.
Furthermore, the "contract" between the DHCPv6 server and the host has
stipulated that the host may use the information for the extent of the
stated valid lifetime.

Hi, Victor & Arturo

Thanks for the comments.
We do plan to write a draft of subsequence solution. But as Victor said, st=
ep 1 is to see if the groups agree there are problems. So hope more people =
could feed back on this.

Many thanks.

B.R.
Bing

Hi, Barbara

 0

[Bing] As I learned from RFC4862, it is ambiguous.

[Bing] We haven't run that, but could do it later. Thanks for the remind.
For separating A flag and Preferred Lifetime, it is just the concept of sep=
arating "_address configuration_ methods" and "address aging" raised by Mar=
k Smith in another mail on this thread. I think it is a good point of view,=
 and if we can initiate subsequence revision of host behavior, we should co=
nsider it.

[Bing] We haven't tried this, could do later. But we used to talk about it =
in 6renum WG. DHCPv6-Reconfiguration is considered not suitable for bulk us=
age, since it is stateful and unicast, might cause heavy load for the DHCPv=
6 server, this has been documented in [draft-ietf-6renum-gap-analysis]. Mor=
eover, it is more difficult for administration to simultaneously operate DH=
CPv6 and ND together. =20

[Bing] That is just the ambiguous of the RA flags behavior. IMHO, we need t=
o specify it clear in the standard. Whether the RA flags should govern DHCP=
v6 behavior or not, we can discuss it in the next step if the groups agree =
we should deal with the ambiguous problem firstly.

Hi, Mark

Thanks for your comment.=20
I like the concept of separating "_address configuration_ methods" and "add=
ress aging methods", if we could initiate the subsequence work, it should b=
e considered.

All the best
Bing

(CC'ed to 6lowpan@ietf.org)

The Internet Draft http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-brandt-6man-lowpanz-00 =
was submitted on Feb. 8.

The authors would like to ask that the document as adopted as a 6man WG doc=
ument.

This document SHOULD be owned by the 6LoWPAN WG. 6LoWPAN is however not act=
ive.
The 6man WG is therefore proposed as the home of this document.


Thanks,
  Anders Brandt

Subject: FW: New Version Notification for draft-brandt-6man-lowpanz-00.txt

Greetings,

A new "IPv6 over foo" I-D has been posted at http://tools.ietf.org/html/dra=
ft-brandt-6man-lowpanz-00.

This I-D specifies an IPv6 encapsulation for ITU-T G.9959 radio networks th=
at I'd describe as an alternative to IEEE 802.15.4 in home and building aut=
omation.=20

The I-D provides some background material on ITU-T G.9959 (addressing, etc.=
) as well as the required IPv6 stuff.  The encapsulation and header compres=
sion schemes are derived from (and compatible with) 6LoWPAN.

I hope to get a few minutes on the 6man agenda in Orlando to discuss the I-=
D and where it belongs.

Thanks,
  Anders

Hi,

The draft-gont-6man-predictable-fragment-id document has been discussed =
a few times.
At the IETF84 (minutes attached below), and in the thread:
http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ipv6/current/msg15836.html

Could we get the working groups opinion on what to do with the document?

- Is there interest in working on it in 6man?
  (if yes, you must be willing to contribute, if no, then say why)

Best regards,
Ole & Bob



IETF84 minutes:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
Fernando Gont presented the draft about Security Implications of
Predictable Fragment Identification Values,
(draft-gont-6man-predictable-fragment-id-02.txt)

Ole Troan wanted to make this document more generic and discuss the
implications of using predictable values in Internet
protocols. Fernando=20

Bob Hinden wanted to see a longer list of OSs. He was also curious as
to whether this was problem that needed to be fixed in IETF or was
this already common knowledge.

Erik Kline wanted to know if there was an IAB document that
recommended the use of non-predictable values if there was an integer
field that did not need specific values.

Thomas Narten was not sure what to do with this. This fell under the
category of "don't do anything stupid". e.g. Why do a document for
IPv6 for things that were well known in IPv4?

Lorenzo Colitti thought that this work was not harmful and should be
pursued irrespective of any iab work.

Brian Haberman did not want to have a point solution for every field
and he would like to see a more general document applicable across the
IETF. Fernando was concerned on whether implementers would read this
generic document. Brian believed that this generic document could be
referred to in the node requirements document, thus ensuring that IPv6
implementers would read it.

Joel Jaeggli thought that it was a worthwhile activity to look at
existing implementations and flag this as a potential issue that was
common across multiple implementations. Thomas Narten and Erik Kline
agreed with Joel.

Dave mentioned that RFC4732 (Internet DOS considerations) talked about
using unpredictable values for session ids. Fernando talked about
other issues discovered after 4732 that still had this issue. Dave
believed that this sort of work needs to be done by the saag and if
this was included in a statement from saag as something to look for in
SecDir reviews, it would have the largest impact.

Chairs wanted to continue discussion on mailing list and requested
Fernando to discuss potential changes with Joel J.=

I was reading this while waiting for my mom at the airport, so maybe I
missed something.

1) I understand that source prefixes and destination prefixes are matched
together by the label, but I don't understand how I know which is a
source prefix and which is a destination prefix?

2) can someone tell me operationally why one would set A=3D0?
   I understand A=3D1 is just permission to use the local policy about row
   addition, but why would the host trust the network the other way?
