All,

I have been thinking about what to do about the distributed mobility 
work since our meeting in Beijing. My suggestion is to add a work item 
to the MEXT charter. Here's the proposed new item:

Description of Working Group:

  Mobile IPv6 specifies routing support which permits an IPv6 host to
  continue using its home address as it moves around the Internet,
  enabling continuity of sessions. Mobile IPv6 supports transparency above
  the IP layer, including maintenance of active transport level sessions.
  In addition, network mobility (NEMO) mechanisms built on top of Mobile
  IPv6 allow managing the mobility of an entire network, as it changes its
  point of attachment to the Internet. The base specifications consist of:

  o RFC 3775 (Mobile IPv6)
  o RFC 3963 (NEMO)
  o RFC 4877 (Mobile IPv6 Operation with IKEv2)
  o RFC 5555 (Dual Stack Mobile IPv6)
  o RFC 5648 (Multiple Care-of Addresses Registration)
  o RFC 5846 (Binding Revocation)
  o RFC-to-be (Flow Binding Policy Transport and Flow Binding Policy Format)

  The MEXT Working Group continues the work of the former MIP6, NEMO, and
  MONAMI6 Working Groups.

  The primary goal of MEXT will be to enhance base IPv6 mobility by
  continuing work on developments that are required for wide-scale
  deployments and specific deployment scenarios. Additionally, the working
  group will ensure that any issues identified by implementation and
  interoperability experience are addressed, and that the base
  specifications are maintained. The group will also produce informational
  documentation, such as design rationale documents or description of
  specific issues within the protocol.

  The MEXT WG will also explore experimental alternative security
  mechanisms. The security mechanism specified in the existing standard
  track RFCs (RFC3775bis, RFC4877) remains the mandatory to implement
  mechanism that guarantees interoperability between different
  implementations. The MEXT WG is chartered to deliver one or more
  experimental alternative mechanisms. All the alternative solutions will
  be published as experimental RFCs.

  The working group will also work on operational considerations on
  setting up Mobile IPv6 networks so that traffic is distributed 
  in an optimal way, for instance by using existing protocol mechanisms
  to select the closest home agents for new clients.

  In addition, the working group will bring to completion earlier work on
  prefix delegation for NEMO, RADIUS  support for Mobile IPv6, Mobile IPv6
  operation with firewalls, and home agent reliability specifications.

  Work items related to base specification maintenance include: Create and
  maintain issue lists that are generated on the basis of implementation
  and interoperability experience. Address specific issues with specific
  updates or revisions of the base specification. Currently known specific
  issues include support for overlapping (private) IPv4 home addresses,
  negotiation of the protection required for payload traffic, and
  discovery of the home agent address in IPv4-only networks.


Goals and Milestones:
  Jun 2011 - Submit I-D 'Mobile IPv6 Operation with Firewalls' to IESG for publication as Informational.
  Jun 2011 - Submit I-D 'Home agent reliability' to IESG for publication as a Proposed Standard.
  Aug 2011 - Submit I-Ds on alternative security mechanisms to the IESG for publication as Experimental.
  Sep 2011 - Submit I-D 'Overlapping IPv4 address support' to IESG for publication as Proposed Standard.
  Sep 2011 - Submit I-D 'Home agent discovery in IPv4-only networks via DHCP' to IESG for publication as Proposed Standard.
  Oct 2011 - Submit I-D 'Operational considerations for distributed use of Mobile IPv6' for publication as Informational
  Dec 2011 - Submit I-D 'Negotiation of the protection for payload traffic' to IESG for publication as Proposed Standard.
  Dec 2011 - Submit the I-D 'RADIUS Mobile IPv6 Support' to IESG for publication as a proposed standard.

Hi Jari:

Thanks for the updated charter text. This looks good to me. Just couple of
comments. 

* The approach of closest home agent selection is one aspect of the DMM
proposal. I assumed it includes other aspects such as CP/DP separation.
Does the charter text gives such provision for such extensions ?
* The BOF discussed the chained models around CMIP/PMIP mobility domains and
the optimized routing paths in such context. The potential extensions should
be applicable to both client-based/network-based and chained mobility
models. 
* There were some issues that were raised around CP/DP separation and around
the distributed deployment models. There should be analysis on the issues
around such deployment models, in relation to centralized models that are
deployed today.

If the charter text broadly allows for some work around this, probably it
should be fine. Finally, glad to see this work not defining a new protocol
suite. But bringing value to the existing protocols.


Regards
Sri

Description of Working Group:<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;Mobile IPv6 specifies routing support which permits an IPv6 hos=
t to<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;continue using its home address as it moves around the Internet=
,<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;enabling continuity of sessions. Mobile IPv6 supports transpare=
ncy above<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;the IP layer, including maintenance of active transport level s=
essions.<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, network mobility (NEMO) mechanisms built on top of=
 Mobile<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;IPv6 allow managing the mobility of an entire network, as it ch=
anges its<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;point of attachment to the Internet. The base specifications co=
nsist of:<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;o RFC 3775 (Mobile IPv6)<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;o RFC 3963 (NEMO)<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;o RFC 4877 (Mobile IPv6 Operation with IKEv2)<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;o RFC 5555 (Dual Stack Mobile IPv6)<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;o RFC 5648 (Multiple Care-of Addresses Registration)<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;o RFC 5846 (Binding Revocation)<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;o RFC-to-be (Flow Binding Policy Transport and Flow Binding Pol=
icy Format)<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;The MEXT Working Group continues the work of the former MIP6, N=
EMO, and<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;MONAMI6 Working Groups.<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;The primary goal of MEXT will be to enhance base IPv6 mobility =
by<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;continuing work on developments that are required for wide-scal=
e<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;deployments and specific deployment scenarios. Additionally, th=
e working<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;group will ensure that any issues identified by implementation =
and<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;interoperability experience are addressed, and that the base<BR=
>
&nbsp;&nbsp;specifications are maintained. The group will also produce info=
rmational<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;documentation, such as design rationale documents or descriptio=
n of<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;specific issues within the protocol.<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;The MEXT WG will also explore experimental alternative security=
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;mechanisms. The security mechanism specified in the existing st=
andard<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;track RFCs (RFC3775bis, RFC4877) remains the mandatory to imple=
ment<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;mechanism that guarantees interoperability between different<BR=
>
&nbsp;&nbsp;implementations. The MEXT WG is chartered to deliver one or mor=
e<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;experimental alternative mechanisms. All the alternative soluti=
ons will<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;be published as experimental RFCs.<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;The working group will also work on operational considerations =
on<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;setting up Mobile IPv6 networks so that traffic is distributed =
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;in an optimal way, for instance by using existing protocol mech=
anisms<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;to select the closest home agents for new clients.<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, the working group will bring to completion earlier=
 work on<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;prefix delegation for NEMO, RADIUS &nbsp;support for Mobile IPv=
6, Mobile IPv6<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;operation with firewalls, and home agent reliability specificat=
ions.<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;Work items related to base specification maintenance include: C=
reate and<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;maintain issue lists that are generated on the basis of impleme=
ntation<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;and interoperability experience. Address specific issues with s=
pecific<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;updates or revisions of the base specification. Currently known=
 specific<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;issues include support for overlapping (private) IPv4 home addr=
esses,<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;negotiation of the protection required for payload traffic, and=
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;discovery of the home agent address in IPv4-only networks.<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Goals and Milestones:<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;Jun 2011 - Submit I-D 'Mobile IPv6 Operation with Firewalls' to=
 IESG for publication as Informational.<BR>

Hi,

It took me quite long to write this review, but finally, here it is :)

Review comments:

In general the proposal of using an alternative to IPsec and IKEv2
seems quite okay. The main purpose of Mobile IPv6 is to enable
mobility at the IP layer and hence using TLS which is much more widely
implemented and deployed for use to secure the signaling is good.

More specific comments:

- The proposal introduces a new element called HAC. In terms of
   deployments such a network element may become central for
   bootstrapping Mobile IPv6. The I-D states that the HAC could be
   co-located with the HA. In reality, the HAC should be a standalone
   entity which interacts with AAA and policy engines in a network.

- TLS is widely used for security in the Internet today. Hence the use
   of TLS does not weaken mobile IPv6 security. TLS is also used only
   for bootstrapping and not for securing the signaling or traffic.

- Describe the steps in figure 1.

- The security association scope says that it describes whether the SA
   is only for signaling or for data as well. Would be useful to make
   it more explicit.

- Route optimization is an important feature of Mobile IPv6. Hence
   this alternate security solution should explain how the route
   optimization signaling messages are secured.

- Unclear why HTTP headers (Sec 8.2) are being reserved. Could not
   really understand the purpose.

- Message details are fairly complete and hence should be
   implementable.

In summary, the draft is well written and complete and should be
considered for standardization.

I'm using DSMIP6-TLS implementations on N900 phone and Ubuntu Linux 
laptop in everyday life and it seems to work quite well. There are still 
some implementation issues that needs to be fixed, but overall feeling 
is very satisfactory.

Regards, Jan Zorz

That is purely an implementation issue. We will add some more text =
around this topic.

Right. However, bootstrapping agrees on ciphers that are available for =
TLS and at the implementation level we then use those ciphers available =
in TLS library. So in a way we still utilize TLS code base for signaling =
& traffic ciphering.

Ok.

Currently the I-D scopes route optimization out. That is stated at the =
very end of the document though. We have been thinking to add route =
optimization support though.

Just a left over from earlier revisions.

Jouni, hi.

I think this is essential and *must* be in there. Of what use is all 
mobility stuff if there is no route optimization?

I understand that mobile operators are a bit nervous about that, but 
this shouldn't be a reason not describing/defining route optimization in 
I-D and do it in implementation.

Yes. Its says "for instance".

I think anything in the area of operational guidance, or usage of 
existing protocols to do some form of distribution or optimized route 
paths would be fair game, IMO.

Again, I think this is included. But I would rather not write all of 
this to the charter explicitly; we might miss some issues that we will 
in any case have to deal with in the documents.

All,

We would like to add a proposal to MEXT that permits the mobile to engage i=
nto route-optimization in *absence* of a home agent.

Such a feature adds robustness to route optimization in case the HA is temp=
orarily unavailable. Under some circumstances, route optimization *without*=
 HA may be beneficial for performance reasons. Our proposal requires "enhan=
ced route optimization for Mobile IPv6" (RFC 4866) as pre-requisite.

We would like to obtain some feedback from the MEXT community via this mail=
ing list before we submit the proposal as a draft to the workgroup. For thi=
s purpose, we have enclosed a high-level outline below. Thanks.

Regards,

Proposal: Support of Route-Optimization in Absence of Home Agent

ABSTRACT:
The proposal allows the mobile to engage into route optimization (R/O) in *=
absence* of a HA. This feature increases robustness when the HA becomes tem=
porarily unavailable. Under some circumstances, R/O *without* HA may be ben=
eficial for performance reasons. This proposal requires "enhanced route opt=
imization for Mobile IPv6" (RFC 4866) as pre-requisite.

MOTIVATION:
In route optimization (R/O), traffic packets are directly exchanged between=
 hosts without passing the HA. The mobile, however, still has to interact w=
ith the HA. The HA provides (1) location service, (2) a fallback path in ca=
se the direct path breaks, (3) a fallback in case the correspondent does no=
t support the protocol and (4) security support for R/O-related signaling (=
i.e. home test). These functions come at the following cost:
*       Handovers may fail when the link to the HA or the HA itself are dow=
n or congested. Mobility is not supported, when the mobile does not have a =
HA.
*       When the mobile starts a session outside of its home network, it mu=
st use a HoA pertaining to its home network even if it engages into R/O. Th=
is requirement adds air-interface overhead due to mobility headers and proc=
essing overhead on the mobile. This upfront cost incurs even if the mobile =
does not move during the session.
*       Signaling handshakes have to be conducted between mobile and HA at =
every mobility event.

Currently, the Mobile IPv6 standard family forces the mobile to bear these =
disadvantages in R/O even if the HA functions are not needed. This specific=
ally applies to scenarios where:
*       Traffic is based on mobile-initiated requests to public servers (ma=
jority of present mobile internet traffic). The HA's location service is no=
t needed for such traffic. Location service may also be provided by other m=
eans such as Dynamic DNS or on application layer (e.g. SIP registrar).
*       The fallback path through the HA has little value when it shares th=
e weakest link with the direct path. Since the weakest link is typically th=
e wireless link, this situation applies to all scenarios where only one air=
 interface is available (this is the typical case rather than the exception=
).
*       The mobile may know about the correspondent's Mobile-IPv6 support f=
rom prior sessions or through means external to the standard.
*       The mobile applies the CGA-based procedure of RFC 4866, which makes=
 the HA's security support for R/O unnecessary. This applies to all cases w=
here stateless addressing is permitted.

To increase the flexibility and robustness of route-optimized Mobile IPv6, =
we propose to make the HA an *optional* rather than a *mandatory* feature, =
i.e. to permit operation without HA. This proposal requires some additional=
 extensions to the present standard.

HIGH-LEVEL OUTLINE
The extensions build on Enhanced Route Optimization for Mobile IPv6 (RFC 48=
66) to guarantee sufficient signaling security. With the absence of a HA, m=
obility support in R/O can be provided in the following manner:
*       The mobile starts the traffic session from any of its currently sup=
ported IP addresses. The selected IP address automatically takes the functi=
on of the HoA for this session. This has the advantage that conventional tr=
ansport is used as long as the mobile does not move, i.e. mobility headers =
and CoA-vs-HoA mapping is not needed. The HoA must have been generated via =
CGA in compliance with RFC 4866.
*       The mobile must conduct a "home-test" from this HoA in compliance w=
ith RFC 4866. It may conduct the home-test prior to session establishment, =
e.g. to find out if the correspondent supports the standard.
*       All binding update handshakes are conducted on the direct path acco=
rding to RFC 4866.
*       Since sessions are always started from a currently supported IP add=
ress, temporally overlapping sessions may use different HoAs. A multi-homed=
 mobile may also decide to start sessions from different simultaneously sup=
ported IP addresses. There is no principle problem here.
*       Opposed to RFC 4866, the mobile need not perform the CoA registrati=
on with the HA.
*       The mobile must be able to deregister the HoA at the correspondent =
in case the HoA is not supported anymore. This ensures that the corresponde=
nt does not send packets to the HoA. After deregistration of the HoA, the H=
oA is still used by higher protocol layers of ongoing sessions. It must sti=
ll be included in the mobility headers for these sessions.
*       When the mobile has HA support and the HA becomes temporarily unava=
ilable, the mobile simply continues R/O without HA as outlined in the prior=
 points.
*       The mobile can publish its IP address in any location service. This=
 allows other hosts to initiate sessions with the mobile. These sessions en=
joy route-optimized mobility support only if the published IP address was g=
enerated via CGA in compliance with RFC 4866.

OPEN ISSUES
These extensions have to be made compliant with RFC 5648 (multiple CoA regi=
stration), RFC 3963 (NEMO) and others. More discussions are necessary.

Georg,

Is it correct that functionally your proposal is similar to Homeless Mobile=
 IPv6:

Subject: [MEXT] Support of route optimization in *absence* of HA

All,

We would like to add a proposal to MEXT that permits the mobile to engage i=
nto route-optimization in *absence* of a home agent.

Such a feature adds robustness to route optimization in case the HA is temp=
orarily unavailable. Under some circumstances, route optimization *without*=
 HA may be beneficial for performance reasons. Our proposal requires "enhan=
ced route optimization for Mobile IPv6" (RFC 4866) as pre-requisite.

We would like to obtain some feedback from the MEXT community via this mail=
ing list before we submit the proposal as a draft to the workgroup. For thi=
s purpose, we have enclosed a high-level outline below. Thanks.

Proposal: Support of Route-Optimization in Absence of Home Agent

ABSTRACT:
The proposal allows the mobile to engage into route optimization (R/O) in *=
absence* of a HA. This feature increases robustness when the HA becomes tem=
porarily unavailable. Under some circumstances, R/O *without* HA may be ben=
eficial for performance reasons. This proposal requires "enhanced route opt=
imization for Mobile IPv6" (RFC 4866) as pre-requisite.

MOTIVATION:
In route optimization (R/O), traffic packets are directly exchanged between=
 hosts without passing the HA. The mobile, however, still has to interact w=
ith the HA. The HA provides (1) location service, (2) a fallback path in ca=
se the direct path breaks, (3) a fallback in case the correspondent does no=
t support the protocol and (4) security support for R/O-related signaling (=
i.e. home test). These functions come at the following cost:
*       Handovers may fail when the link to the HA or the HA itself are dow=
n or congested. Mobility is not supported, when the mobile does not have a =
HA.
*       When the mobile starts a session outside of its home network, it mu=
st use a HoA pertaining to its home network even if it engages into R/O. Th=
is requirement adds air-interface overhead due to mobility headers and proc=
essing overhead on the mobile. This upfront cost incurs even if the mobile =
does not move during the session.
*       Signaling handshakes have to be conducted between mobile and HA at =
every mobility event.

Currently, the Mobile IPv6 standard family forces the mobile to bear these =
disadvantages in R/O even if the HA functions are not needed. This specific=
ally applies to scenarios where:
*       Traffic is based on mobile-initiated requests to public servers (ma=
jority of present mobile internet traffic). The HA's location service is no=
t needed for such traffic. Location service may also be provided by other m=
eans such as Dynamic DNS or on application layer (e.g. SIP registrar).
*       The fallback path through the HA has little value when it shares th=
e weakest link with the direct path. Since the weakest link is typically th=
e wireless link, this situation applies to all scenarios where only one air=
 interface is available (this is the typical case rather than the exception=
).
*       The mobile may know about the correspondent's Mobile-IPv6 support f=
rom prior sessions or through means external to the standard.
*       The mobile applies the CGA-based procedure of RFC 4866, which makes=
 the HA's security support for R/O unnecessary. This applies to all cases w=
here stateless addressing is permitted.

To increase the flexibility and robustness of route-optimized Mobile IPv6, =
we propose to make the HA an *optional* rather than a *mandatory* feature, =
i.e. to permit operation without HA. This proposal requires some additional=
 extensions to the present standard.

HIGH-LEVEL OUTLINE
The extensions build on Enhanced Route Optimization for Mobile IPv6 (RFC 48=
66) to guarantee sufficient signaling security. With the absence of a HA, m=
obility support in R/O can be provided in the following manner:
*       The mobile starts the traffic session from any of its currently sup=
ported IP addresses. The selected IP address automatically takes the functi=
on of the HoA for this session. This has the advantage that conventional tr=
ansport is used as long as the mobile does not move, i.e. mobility headers =
and CoA-vs-HoA mapping is not needed. The HoA must have been generated via =
CGA in compliance with RFC 4866.
*       The mobile must conduct a "home-test" from this HoA in compliance w=
ith RFC 4866. It may conduct the home-test prior to session establishment, =
e.g. to find out if the correspondent supports the standard.
*       All binding update handshakes are conducted on the direct path acco=
rding to RFC 4866.
*       Since sessions are always started from a currently supported IP add=
ress, temporally overlapping sessions may use different HoAs. A multi-homed=
 mobile may also decide to start sessions from different simultaneously sup=
ported IP addresses. There is no principle problem here.
*       Opposed to RFC 4866, the mobile need not perform the CoA registrati=
on with the HA.
*       The mobile must be able to deregister the HoA at the correspondent =
in case the HoA is not supported anymore. This ensures that the corresponde=
nt does not send packets to the HoA. After deregistration of the HoA, the H=
oA is still used by higher protocol layers of ongoing sessions. It must sti=
ll be included in the mobility headers for these sessions.
*       When the mobile has HA support and the HA becomes temporarily unava=
ilable, the mobile simply continues R/O without HA as outlined in the prior=
 points.
*       The mobile can publish its IP address in any location service. This=
 allows other hosts to initiate sessions with the mobile. These sessions en=
joy route-optimized mobility support only if the published IP address was g=
enerated via CGA in compliance with RFC 4866.

OPEN ISSUES
These extensions have to be made compliant with RFC 5648 (multiple CoA regi=
stration), RFC 3963 (NEMO) and others. More discussions are necessary.

into route optimization (R/O) in *absence* of a HA. This feature increases =
robustness when the HA becomes temporarily unavailable.
 Under some circumstances, R/O *without* HA may be beneficial for performan=

, however, still has to interact with the HA. The HA provides
 (1) location service, (2) a fallback path in case the direct path breaks, =
(3) a fallback in case the correspondent does not support the protocol and =
(4) security support for R/O-related signaling (i.e. home test). These func=
tions come at the following cost:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Thanks for the review.

Support for route-optimization with the proposed security solution in this
I-D is possible.
We will describe this in more details in the next rev while also
addressing some of your other comments..

Julien,

The intentions of Homeless MIPv6 are similar to those of our proposal.

In contrast to Homeless MIPv6, our proposal requires only minimal upgrades =
to the present standard and implementation. (Homeless MIPv6 requires change=
s to the TCP/UDP and requires AH, for instance).

Here's the core idea of HA-free R/O:
1)       When starting a session, the MN self-declares its current IP addre=
ss as the "HoA" for this session. This automatically means that it resides =
in its "home network" and can conduct the home test directly with CN, i.e. =
no home registration required.
2)       All further BU/BA signaling is done directly with CN according to =
RFC 4866.
3)       All further signaling with HA is simply omitted.

Our proposal builds on "enhanced route optimization" (RFC 4866), which prov=
ides a nice security solution for R/O and creates the ground for HA-free op=
eration.
Little changes are required: e.g. MN must be able to deregister its HoA at =
CN, etc.

Regards,

Georg

Subject: [MEXT] Support of route optimization in *absence* of HA

All,

We would like to add a proposal to MEXT that permits the mobile to engage i=
nto route-optimization in *absence* of a home agent.

Such a feature adds robustness to route optimization in case the HA is temp=
orarily unavailable. Under some circumstances, route optimization *without*=
 HA may be beneficial for performance reasons. Our proposal requires "enhan=
ced route optimization for Mobile IPv6" (RFC 4866) as pre-requisite.

We would like to obtain some feedback from the MEXT community via this mail=
ing list before we submit the proposal as a draft to the workgroup. For thi=
s purpose, we have enclosed a high-level outline below. Thanks.

Proposal: Support of Route-Optimization in Absence of Home Agent

ABSTRACT:
The proposal allows the mobile to engage into route optimization (R/O) in *=
absence* of a HA. This feature increases robustness when the HA becomes tem=
porarily unavailable. Under some circumstances, R/O *without* HA may be ben=
eficial for performance reasons. This proposal requires "enhanced route opt=
imization for Mobile IPv6" (RFC 4866) as pre-requisite.

MOTIVATION:
In route optimization (R/O), traffic packets are directly exchanged between=
 hosts without passing the HA. The mobile, however, still has to interact w=
ith the HA. The HA provides (1) location service, (2) a fallback path in ca=
se the direct path breaks, (3) a fallback in case the correspondent does no=
t support the protocol and (4) security support for R/O-related signaling (=
i.e. home test). These functions come at the following cost:
*       Handovers may fail when the link to the HA or the HA itself are dow=
n or congested. Mobility is not supported, when the mobile does not have a =
HA.
*       When the mobile starts a session outside of its home network, it mu=
st use a HoA pertaining to its home network even if it engages into R/O. Th=
is requirement adds air-interface overhead due to mobility headers and proc=
essing overhead on the mobile. This upfront cost incurs even if the mobile =
does not move during the session.
*       Signaling handshakes have to be conducted between mobile and HA at =
every mobility event.

Currently, the Mobile IPv6 standard family forces the mobile to bear these =
disadvantages in R/O even if the HA functions are not needed. This specific=
ally applies to scenarios where:
*       Traffic is based on mobile-initiated requests to public servers (ma=
jority of present mobile internet traffic). The HA's location service is no=
t needed for such traffic. Location service may also be provided by other m=
eans such as Dynamic DNS or on application layer (e.g. SIP registrar).
*       The fallback path through the HA has little value when it shares th=
e weakest link with the direct path. Since the weakest link is typically th=
e wireless link, this situation applies to all scenarios where only one air=
 interface is available (this is the typical case rather than the exception=
).
*       The mobile may know about the correspondent's Mobile-IPv6 support f=
rom prior sessions or through means external to the standard.
*       The mobile applies the CGA-based procedure of RFC 4866, which makes=
 the HA's security support for R/O unnecessary. This applies to all cases w=
here stateless addressing is permitted.

To increase the flexibility and robustness of route-optimized Mobile IPv6, =
we propose to make the HA an *optional* rather than a *mandatory* feature, =
i.e. to permit operation without HA. This proposal requires some additional=
 extensions to the present standard.

HIGH-LEVEL OUTLINE
The extensions build on Enhanced Route Optimization for Mobile IPv6 (RFC 48=
66) to guarantee sufficient signaling security. With the absence of a HA, m=
obility support in R/O can be provided in the following manner:
*       The mobile starts the traffic session from any of its currently sup=
ported IP addresses. The selected IP address automatically takes the functi=
on of the HoA for this session. This has the advantage that conventional tr=
ansport is used as long as the mobile does not move, i.e. mobility headers =
and CoA-vs-HoA mapping is not needed. The HoA must have been generated via =
CGA in compliance with RFC 4866.
*       The mobile must conduct a "home-test" from this HoA in compliance w=
ith RFC 4866. It may conduct the home-test prior to session establishment, =
e.g. to find out if the correspondent supports the standard.
*       All binding update handshakes are conducted on the direct path acco=
rding to RFC 4866.
*       Since sessions are always started from a currently supported IP add=
ress, temporally overlapping sessions may use different HoAs. A multi-homed=
 mobile may also decide to start sessions from different simultaneously sup=
ported IP addresses. There is no principle problem here.
*       Opposed to RFC 4866, the mobile need not perform the CoA registrati=
on with the HA.
*       The mobile must be able to deregister the HoA at the correspondent =
in case the HoA is not supported anymore. This ensures that the corresponde=
nt does not send packets to the HoA. After deregistration of the HoA, the H=
oA is still used by higher protocol layers of ongoing sessions. It must sti=
ll be included in the mobility headers for these sessions.
*       When the mobile has HA support and the HA becomes temporarily unava=
ilable, the mobile simply continues R/O without HA as outlined in the prior=
 points.
*       The mobile can publish its IP address in any location service. This=
 allows other hosts to initiate sessions with the mobile. These sessions en=
joy route-optimized mobility support only if the published IP address was g=
enerated via CGA in compliance with RFC 4866.

OPEN ISSUES
These extensions have to be made compliant with RFC 5648 (multiple CoA regi=
stration), RFC 3963 (NEMO) and others. More discussions are necessary.

Do you mean the presence of RH2 and HAO in DestOpt in the packets?

If you intend *to use IPsec/IKE between the peers*, I proposed a
solution to remove RH2 and HAO in DestOpt from packets and also the
need for HoTI/HoT in the following draft: 

  http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ebalard-mext-ipsec-ro-02

For a simple introduction (description, advantages, drawbacks),

Hello and thanks for this message,

I think generally Route Optimization in the absence of a Home Agent is a
useful matter to address.

With colleagues I have worked on a solution whereby two Mobile Routers
can communicate directly via their egress interface, bypassing the need
to contact the Home Agent:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-petrescu-autoconf-ra-based-routing-00
(the draft is being updated with transportation scenarios and expanded
  authorship, and I would be interested to discuss it further).

In a certain sense this MR-to-MR can be considered as Route Optimization
without using Home Agent, although it is at a certain extreme where no
Home Addresses/CoAs are used either.

A related draft MNPP does a similar behaviour, but it has an additional
scenario with a fixed Access Point:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-jhlee-mext-mnpp-00

I insert below some comments on the preliminary text you provided:

This is a good point - it is very advantageous to perform direct
MN-to-MN communication some times when HA is little or not available at all.

I must say I do not understand why this RFC is required.  Is your
proposal intended to become an extension of RFC4866?

> MOTIVATION:
>
> In route optimization (R/O), traffic packets are directly exchanged
> between hosts without passing the HA. The mobile, however, still has

YEs, the first step (1) is the fact establishing the initial BC entries
(the ones permitting direct non-tunnelled communication CoA to CoA on
behalf of the HoAs) is impossible if HA does not reply.  Once the BC
entries are established the HA is no longer needed.

I agree, this is an excellent point.  Lack of HA forbidding
network-layer communication upon handover is an unfortunate consequence
of cross-layer otherwise abberant tunnel assumptions.  Tunnels have a
magic in them (go up next level( but they also expose their weaknesses
when least expected.

> ·When the mobile starts a session outside of its home network, it

Is this the HoA in the Routing Header being a packet size problem?

> every mobility event.

This is a cost? yes and no.  BU/BAck and RR messages happen relatively
fast compared to RS/RA address autoconfig, and the link-layer messages
used during handovers for configuration and security.  The Mobile IPv6
signalling represents less than 10% from the handover time, even in the
unfortunate cases when HA is very far away in the Internet.  In another
sense, it is good to optimize out even these 10%.

Also, if you start saying MIPv6 signalling is a "cost" (a negative) then
make sure you don't design something new which actually has a higher
cost.  You risk struggling against a cost which is already very low
(Mobile IPv6 BU/BAck RR message exchange cost is very low).

YEs, I agree, one wouldn't need the MH to use its HoA when talking some
web browsing to a local server.

I need to better understand this.  What is the "direct path"?  I
understand "fallback path" being to HA.  I would need further
explanation of this item.

A-ha, so there are scenarios where the MHs may know each other's
CoA/HoAs pre-configured somehow.

Do we need to limit an HA-less RO mechanism to using CGA?  Would this
work without CGA?

So you want to design an RFC4866bis?

This is a technique, yes.

Is RFC4866 more implemented than MIPv6 RR?

I agree.

HEllo,

Generally speaking it is a very good intention to reduce the mobility
header size as much as possible.

For IPv6 the problem is all the more important knowing the addresses are
4 times longer than IPv4.

But also in IPv4 there are intentions to reduce the headers during
Mobile IPv4 handovers (e.g. handover from NAT to non-NAT should use the
smaller header).

When you say "reduce MH size in RO" do you mean the headers of the
Return Routability tests?  Or the headers of data direct path
communication after RR was performed?

Thanks for the description.  It makes sense and is compelling.

Would this method mean that when MN moves some packets from CN arriving
at "home" are lost until MN signals its new position to CN?

Would this fail when CN is mobile? (CN changes its address).

Would this require to modify all the CNs to which this MN may talk?

Would this imply that this solution is to be applied in a small system
(smaller than the size of the Internet), system within which other
link-layer mobility protocols do fine (GGSN-SGSN) where the IP address
is kept stable).

This helps deriving requirements for it.

There are more grounds for HA-less operation than just RFC4866.  One can
realize HA-less mobility operation without using RFC4866.

I agree, MN must be modified but I suppose CN too.

> ·Handovers may fail when the link to the HA or the HA itself are down

> have a HA.
>
> ·When the mobile starts a session outside of its home network, it
> must use a HoA pertaining to its home network even if it engages into
> R/O. This requirement adds air-interface overhead due to mobility
> headers and processing overhead on the mobile. This upfront cost
> incurs even if the mobile does not move during the session.
>
> ·Signaling handshakes have to be conducted between mobile and HA at
> every mobility event.
>
> Currently, the Mobile IPv6 standard family forces the mobile to bear
>  these disadvantages in R/O even if the HA functions are not needed.
> This specifically applies to scenarios where:
>
> ·Traffic is based on mobile-initiated requests to public servers
> (majority of present mobile internet traffic). The HA’s location

> provided by other means such as Dynamic DNS or on application layer

>
> ·The fallback path through the HA has little value when it shares the
>  weakest link with the direct path. Since the weakest link is

Hi,

To clarify my prior question: I'm referring to the size of RH2 and HOA head=
ers that are carried on traffic packets during route optimization when MN d=
oes not reside in its home network.

I agree with Arnaud's comment that RH2 and HOA can be dropped when peers su=
stain an IPsec-protected traffic connection.

May concern are traffic connections WITHOUT IPsec protection. This applies =
to the vast majority of mobile internet traffic. The additional 24B (or 48B=
 if both peers are mobile) for RH2 and/or HOA represent a burden on wireles=
s connections. In principle, the IP addresses carried in these headers coul=
d be replaced by a hash or a session identifier. This, of course, creates m=
iddle-box traversal issues.

Has this issue been worked somewhere?=20

Thanks.

Georg Hampel

Do you mean the presence of RH2 and HAO in DestOpt in the packets?

If you intend *to use IPsec/IKE between the peers*, I proposed a
solution to remove RH2 and HAO in DestOpt from packets and also the
need for HoTI/HoT in the following draft:=20

Hi Alex,

Thanks for your comments. I have inserted answers below.

Upfront: RFC 4866 provides a convincing security solution to the return rou=
tability test WITHOUT requiring a trust-relationship between peers. Note th=
at it abolishes the need for a home-test during mobility events. This elimi=
nates the reliance on the HA.

In my opinion, the easiest way to introduce HA-free operation is via RFC 48=
66. The only pre-requisite of this RFC is stateless addressing. Does this p=
ose any problem?

Georg

Thanks for the description.  It makes sense and is compelling.

Would this method mean that when MN moves some packets from CN arriving
at "home" are lost until MN signals its new position to CN?
[GH] RFC 4866 introduces exchange of credit-based traffic before the return=
 routability test has been finished. The handover performance should be bet=
ter than for RFC3775-based R/O.=20

Would this fail when CN is mobile? (CN changes its address).
[GH] No. The only problem occurs when both, MN and CN, move at the same tim=
e. That's the price you pay in the absence of a HA. It may be overcome in c=
ase one of the peers is multi-homed.


Would this require to modify all the CNs to which this MN may talk?
[GH] R/O always requires that CNs support MIPv6 (and the corresponding exte=
nsions).

Would this imply that this solution is to be applied in a small system
(smaller than the size of the Internet), system within which other
link-layer mobility protocols do fine (GGSN-SGSN) where the IP address
is kept stable).
[GH] The solution should be generic, not restricted to small systems. Inter=
operability with 3GPP-based standards remains to be discussed. From the out=
side, a 3GPP network should look like a L2 solution where the MN holds a fi=
xed IP address.

This helps deriving requirements for it.

There are more grounds for HA-less operation than just RFC4866.  One can
realize HA-less mobility operation without using RFC4866.
[GH] Yes indeed. For that purpose, it is necessary to get rid of the home-t=
est during handovers. The home-test serves security purposes. Therefore, on=
e has to come up with an alternative security solution. What's so bad with =
RFC 4866?

I agree, MN must be modified but I suppose CN too.
[GH] CN has to be able to understand MN's HoA-deregistration message.

Ok, so the use of rfc4866 has the good side effect of eliminating the
need of HA.

If the goal is to extend rfc4866 then we're fine.

But if the goal is to do HA-less Route Optimization, then I think there
exist more possibilities than RFC4866.

No, no problem, I am trying to udnerstand what is one trying to do.

That is the easiest way for you.

For me, the easieest way to introduce HA-free operation is via MR-to-MR
communication, secured at link layer.

Hmm, I doubt this would add any noticeable improving effect in the
overall handover performance.  The performance hog during IPv6 handovers
is not Mobile IPv6 but link layer (WiFi assoc req/resp, 3G connection
setup) and address auto-configuration (RS/RA).

The improvements of a better RR would probably be indeed improvements,
but by how much?  I doubt there'd be any noticeable effect on apps.

YEs, but a better rfc4866 would require to modify even a RFC3775-CN.

>> Proposal: Support of Route-Optimization in Absence of Home Agent
>>
>> ABSTRACT:
>>
>> The proposal allows the mobile to engage into route optimization
>> (R/O) in *absence* of a HA. This feature increases robustness when
>>  the HA becomes temporarily unavailable. Under some circumstances,
>> R/O *without* HA may be beneficial for performance reasons. This
>> proposal requires "enhanced route optimization for Mobile IPv6"
>> (RFC 4866) as pre-requisite.
>>
>> MOTIVATION:
>>
>> In route optimization (R/O), traffic packets are directly exchanged
>> between hosts without passing the HA. The mobile, however, still
>> has to interact with the HA. The HA provides (1) location service,
>> (2) a fallback path in case the direct path breaks, (3) a fallback
>> in case the correspondent does not support the protocol and (4)
>> security support for R/O-related signaling (i.e. home test). These
>> functions come at the following cost:
>>
>> ·Handovers may fail when the link to the HA or the HA itself are
>> down or congested. Mobility is not supported, when the mobile does
>> not have a HA.
>>
>> ·When the mobile starts a session outside of its home network, it
>> must use a HoA pertaining to its home network even if it engages
>> into R/O. This requirement adds air-interface overhead due to
>> mobility headers and processing overhead on the mobile. This
>> upfront cost incurs even if the mobile does not move during the
>> session.
>>
>> ·Signaling handshakes have to be conducted between mobile and HA at
>> every mobility event.
>>
>> Currently, the Mobile IPv6 standard family forces the mobile to
>> bear these disadvantages in R/O even if the HA functions are not
>> needed. This specifically applies to scenarios where:
>>
>> ·Traffic is based on mobile-initiated requests to public servers
>> (majority of present mobile internet traffic). The HA's location
>> service is not needed for such traffic. Location service may also
>> be provided by other means such as Dynamic DNS or on application
>> layer (e.g. SIP registrar).
>>
>> ·The fallback path through the HA has little value when it shares
>> the weakest link with the direct path. Since the weakest link is
>> typically the wireless link, this situation applies to all
>> scenarios where only one air interface is available (this is the
>> typical case rather than the exception).
>>
>> ·The mobile may know about the correspondent's Mobile-IPv6 support
>>  from prior sessions or through means external to the standard.
>>
>> ·The mobile applies the CGA-based procedure of RFC 4866, which
>> makes the HA's security support for R/O unnecessary. This applies
>> to all cases where stateless addressing is permitted.
>>
>> To increase the flexibility and robustness of route-optimized
>> Mobile IPv6, we propose to make the HA an *optional* rather than a
>>  *mandatory* feature, i.e. to permit operation without HA. This
>> proposal requires some additional extensions to the present
>> standard.
>>
>> HIGH-LEVEL OUTLINE
>>
>> The extensions build on Enhanced Route Optimization for Mobile IPv6
>> (RFC 4866) to guarantee sufficient signaling security. With the
>> absence of a HA, mobility support in R/O can be provided in the
>> following manner:
>>
>> ·The mobile starts the traffic session from any of its currently
>> supported IP addresses. The selected IP address automatically takes
>> the function of the HoA for this session. This has the advantage
>> that conventional transport is used as long as the mobile does not
>> move, i.e. mobility headers and CoA-vs-HoA mapping is not needed.
>> The HoA must have been generated via CGA in compliance with RFC
>> 4866.
>>
>> ·The mobile must conduct a "home-test" from this HoA in compliance
>>  with RFC 4866. It may conduct the home-test prior to session
>> establishment, e.g. to find out if the correspondent supports the
>> standard.
>>
>> ·All binding update handshakes are conducted on the direct path
>> according to RFC 4866.
>>
>> ·Since sessions are always started from a currently supported IP
>> address, temporally overlapping sessions may use different HoAs. A
>>  multi-homed mobile may also decide to start sessions from
>> different simultaneously supported IP addresses. There is no
>> principle problem here.
>>
>> ·Opposed to RFC 4866, the mobile need not perform the CoA
>> registration with the HA.
>>
>> ·The mobile must be able to deregister the HoA at the correspondent
>> in case the HoA is not supported anymore. This ensures that the
>> correspondent does not send packets to the HoA. After
>> deregistration of the HoA, the HoA is still used by higher protocol
>> layers of ongoing sessions. It must still be included in the
>> mobility headers for these sessions.
>>
>> ·When the mobile has HA support and the HA becomes temporarily
>> unavailable, the mobile simply continues R/O without HA as outlined
>> in the prior points.
>>
>> ·The mobile can publish its IP address in any location service.
>> This allows other hosts to initiate sessions with the mobile. These
>> sessions enjoy route-optimized mobility support only if the
>> published IP address was generated via CGA in compliance with RFC
>> 4866.
>>
>> OPEN ISSUES
>>
>> These extensions have to be made compliant with RFC 5648 (multiple
>>  CoA registration), RFC 3963 (NEMO) and others. More discussions
>> are necessary.

All,

Is there currently any effort to reduce the mobility header size in route o=
ptimization? Thanks.

Georg,

Thanks for clarifying, this is what I thought. FWIW, I've tried to extend t=
he RFC 4866 to secure bindings between the MN and the HA in http://tools.ie=
tf.org/html/draft-laganier-mext-cga-01

Julien,

The intentions of Homeless MIPv6 are similar to those of our proposal.

In contrast to Homeless MIPv6, our proposal requires only minimal upgrades =
to the present standard and implementation. (Homeless MIPv6 requires change=
s to the TCP/UDP and requires AH, for instance).

Here's the core idea of HA-free R/O:
1)  When starting a session, the MN self-declares its current IP address as=
 the "HoA" for this session. This automatically means that it resides in it=
s "home network" and can conduct the home test directly with CN, i.e. no ho=
me registration required.
2)  All further BU/BA signaling is done directly with CN according to RFC 4=
866.
3)  All further signaling with HA is simply omitted.

Our proposal builds on "enhanced route optimization" (RFC 4866), which prov=
ides a nice security solution for R/O and creates the ground for HA-free op=
eration.
Little changes are required: e.g. MN must be able to deregister its HoA at =
CN, etc.

Regards,

Georg

Subject: [MEXT] Support of route optimization in *absence* of HA

All,

We would like to add a proposal to MEXT that permits the mobile to engage i=
nto route-optimization in *absence* of a home agent.

Such a feature adds robustness to route optimization in case the HA is temp=
orarily unavailable. Under some circumstances, route optimization *without*=
 HA may be beneficial for performance reasons. Our proposal requires "enhan=
ced route optimization for Mobile IPv6" (RFC 4866) as pre-requisite.

We would like to obtain some feedback from the MEXT community via this mail=
ing list before we submit the proposal as a draft to the workgroup. For thi=
s purpose, we have enclosed a high-level outline below. Thanks.

Proposal: Support of Route-Optimization in Absence of Home Agent

ABSTRACT:
The proposal allows the mobile to engage into route optimization (R/O) in *=
absence* of a HA. This feature increases robustness when the HA becomes tem=
porarily unavailable. Under some circumstances, R/O *without* HA may be ben=
eficial for performance reasons. This proposal requires "enhanced route opt=
imization for Mobile IPv6" (RFC 4866) as pre-requisite.

MOTIVATION:
In route optimization (R/O), traffic packets are directly exchanged between=
 hosts without passing the HA. The mobile, however, still has to interact w=
ith the HA. The HA provides (1) location service, (2) a fallback path in ca=
se the direct path breaks, (3) a fallback in case the correspondent does no=
t support the protocol and (4) security support for R/O-related signaling (=
i.e. home test). These functions come at the following cost:
*       Handovers may fail when the link to the HA or the HA itself are dow=
n or congested. Mobility is not supported, when the mobile does not have a =
HA.
*       When the mobile starts a session outside of its home network, it mu=
st use a HoA pertaining to its home network even if it engages into R/O. Th=
is requirement adds air-interface overhead due to mobility headers and proc=
essing overhead on the mobile. This upfront cost incurs even if the mobile =
does not move during the session.
*       Signaling handshakes have to be conducted between mobile and HA at =
every mobility event.

Currently, the Mobile IPv6 standard family forces the mobile to bear these =
disadvantages in R/O even if the HA functions are not needed. This specific=
ally applies to scenarios where:
*       Traffic is based on mobile-initiated requests to public servers (ma=
jority of present mobile internet traffic). The HA's location service is no=
t needed for such traffic. Location service may also be provided by other m=
eans such as Dynamic DNS or on application layer (e.g. SIP registrar).
*       The fallback path through the HA has little value when it shares th=
e weakest link with the direct path. Since the weakest link is typically th=
e wireless link, this situation applies to all scenarios where only one air=
 interface is available (this is the typical case rather than the exception=
).
*       The mobile may know about the correspondent's Mobile-IPv6 support f=
rom prior sessions or through means external to the standard.
*       The mobile applies the CGA-based procedure of RFC 4866, which makes=
 the HA's security support for R/O unnecessary. This applies to all cases w=
here stateless addressing is permitted.

To increase the flexibility and robustness of route-optimized Mobile IPv6, =
we propose to make the HA an *optional* rather than a *mandatory* feature, =
i.e. to permit operation without HA. This proposal requires some additional=
 extensions to the present standard.

HIGH-LEVEL OUTLINE
The extensions build on Enhanced Route Optimization for Mobile IPv6 (RFC 48=
66) to guarantee sufficient signaling security. With the absence of a HA, m=
obility support in R/O can be provided in the following manner:
*       The mobile starts the traffic session from any of its currently sup=
ported IP addresses. The selected IP address automatically takes the functi=
on of the HoA for this session. This has the advantage that conventional tr=
ansport is used as long as the mobile does not move, i.e. mobility headers =
and CoA-vs-HoA mapping is not needed. The HoA must have been generated via =
CGA in compliance with RFC 4866.
*       The mobile must conduct a "home-test" from this HoA in compliance w=
ith RFC 4866. It may conduct the home-test prior to session establishment, =
e.g. to find out if the correspondent supports the standard.
*       All binding update handshakes are conducted on the direct path acco=
rding to RFC 4866.
*       Since sessions are always started from a currently supported IP add=
ress, temporally overlapping sessions may use different HoAs. A multi-homed=
 mobile may also decide to start sessions from different simultaneously sup=
ported IP addresses. There is no principle problem here.
*       Opposed to RFC 4866, the mobile need not perform the CoA registrati=
on with the HA.
*       The mobile must be able to deregister the HoA at the correspondent =
in case the HoA is not supported anymore. This ensures that the corresponde=
nt does not send packets to the HoA. After deregistration of the HoA, the H=
oA is still used by higher protocol layers of ongoing sessions. It must sti=
ll be included in the mobility headers for these sessions.
*       When the mobile has HA support and the HA becomes temporarily unava=
ilable, the mobile simply continues R/O without HA as outlined in the prior=
 points.
*       The mobile can publish its IP address in any location service. This=
 allows other hosts to initiate sessions with the mobile. These sessions en=
joy route-optimized mobility support only if the published IP address was g=
enerated via CGA in compliance with RFC 4866.

OPEN ISSUES
These extensions have to be made compliant with RFC 5648 (multiple CoA regi=
stration), RFC 3963 (NEMO) and others. More discussions are necessary.

<p class=3D"MsoNormal"><span style=3D"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:&quot;Ar=
ial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">The proposal allows the mobile to engage =
into route optimization (R/O) in *absence* of a HA. This feature increases =
robustness when the HA becomes temporarily unavailable.
 Under some circumstances, R/O *without* HA may be beneficial for performan=
ce reasons. This proposal requires &#8220;enhanced route optimization for M=
obile IPv6&#8221; (RFC 4866) as pre-requisite.

<p class=3D"MsoNormal"><span style=3D"font-size:10.5pt;font-family:&quot;Ar=
ial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">In route optimization (R/O), traffic pack=
ets are directly exchanged between hosts without passing the HA. The mobile=
, however, still has to interact with the HA. The HA provides
 (1) location service, (2) a fallback path in case the direct path breaks, =
(3) a fallback in case the correspondent does not support the protocol and =
(4) security support for R/O-related signaling (i.e. home test). These func=
tions come at the following cost:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Julien,

Thanks for the info. I like your proposal. CGA provides cryptographic secur=
ity without need for trust-relationships, PKI, pre-shared keys, etc.

1) When IPsec is replaced by CGA, MN only proves the authenticity of its Ho=
A to the HA. It does not authenticate itself in absolute terms, i.e. via me=
ans of strong authentication as required by IPsec or TLS. How would the HA =
know that this MN is authorized to use the HA's services?

2) Do we have any idea to what extend stateless addressing is "supported"? =
Does (or will) 3GPP allow stateless addressing?


-Georg

Georg,

Thanks for clarifying, this is what I thought. FWIW, I've tried to extend t=
he RFC 4866 to secure bindings between the MN and the HA in http://tools.ie=
tf.org/html/draft-laganier-mext-cga-01

Julien,

The intentions of Homeless MIPv6 are similar to those of our proposal.

In contrast to Homeless MIPv6, our proposal requires only minimal upgrades =
to the present standard and implementation. (Homeless MIPv6 requires change=
s to the TCP/UDP and requires AH, for instance).

Here's the core idea of HA-free R/O:
1)   When starting a session, the MN self-declares its current IP address a=
s the "HoA" for this session. This automatically means that it resides in i=
ts "home network" and can conduct the home test directly with CN, i.e. no h=
ome registration required.
2)   All further BU/BA signaling is done directly with CN according to RFC =
4866.
3)   All further signaling with HA is simply omitted.

Our proposal builds on "enhanced route optimization" (RFC 4866), which prov=
ides a nice security solution for R/O and creates the ground for HA-free op=
eration.
Little changes are required: e.g. MN must be able to deregister its HoA at =
CN, etc.

Regards,

Georg

Georg,

Is it correct that functionally your proposal is similar to Homeless Mobile=
 IPv6:

Subject: [MEXT] Support of route optimization in *absence* of HA

All,

We would like to add a proposal to MEXT that permits the mobile to engage i=
nto route-optimization in *absence* of a home agent.

Such a feature adds robustness to route optimization in case the HA is temp=
orarily unavailable. Under some circumstances, route optimization *without*=
 HA may be beneficial for performance reasons. Our proposal requires "enhan=
ced route optimization for Mobile IPv6" (RFC 4866) as pre-requisite.

We would like to obtain some feedback from the MEXT community via this mail=
ing list before we submit the proposal as a draft to the workgroup. For thi=
s purpose, we have enclosed a high-level outline below. Thanks.

Proposal: Support of Route-Optimization in Absence of Home Agent

ABSTRACT:
The proposal allows the mobile to engage into route optimization (R/O) in *=
absence* of a HA. This feature increases robustness when the HA becomes tem=
porarily unavailable. Under some circumstances, R/O *without* HA may be ben=
eficial for performance reasons. This proposal requires "enhanced route opt=
imization for Mobile IPv6" (RFC 4866) as pre-requisite.

MOTIVATION:
In route optimization (R/O), traffic packets are directly exchanged between=
 hosts without passing the HA. The mobile, however, still has to interact w=
ith the HA. The HA provides (1) location service, (2) a fallback path in ca=
se the direct path breaks, (3) a fallback in case the correspondent does no=
t support the protocol and (4) security support for R/O-related signaling (=
i.e. home test). These functions come at the following cost:
*       Handovers may fail when the link to the HA or the HA itself are dow=
n or congested. Mobility is not supported, when the mobile does not have a =
HA.
*       When the mobile starts a session outside of its home network, it mu=
st use a HoA pertaining to its home network even if it engages into R/O. Th=
is requirement adds air-interface overhead due to mobility headers and proc=
essing overhead on the mobile. This upfront cost incurs even if the mobile =
does not move during the session.
*       Signaling handshakes have to be conducted between mobile and HA at =
every mobility event.

Currently, the Mobile IPv6 standard family forces the mobile to bear these =
disadvantages in R/O even if the HA functions are not needed. This specific=
ally applies to scenarios where:
*       Traffic is based on mobile-initiated requests to public servers (ma=
jority of present mobile internet traffic). The HA's location service is no=
t needed for such traffic. Location service may also be provided by other m=
eans such as Dynamic DNS or on application layer (e.g. SIP registrar).
*       The fallback path through the HA has little value when it shares th=
e weakest link with the direct path. Since the weakest link is typically th=
e wireless link, this situation applies to all scenarios where only one air=
 interface is available (this is the typical case rather than the exception=
).
*       The mobile may know about the correspondent's Mobile-IPv6 support f=
rom prior sessions or through means external to the standard.
*       The mobile applies the CGA-based procedure of RFC 4866, which makes=
 the HA's security support for R/O unnecessary. This applies to all cases w=
here stateless addressing is permitted.

To increase the flexibility and robustness of route-optimized Mobile IPv6, =
we propose to make the HA an *optional* rather than a *mandatory* feature, =
i.e. to permit operation without HA. This proposal requires some additional=
 extensions to the present standard.

HIGH-LEVEL OUTLINE
The extensions build on Enhanced Route Optimization for Mobile IPv6 (RFC 48=
66) to guarantee sufficient signaling security. With the absence of a HA, m=
obility support in R/O can be provided in the following manner:
*       The mobile starts the traffic session from any of its currently sup=
ported IP addresses. The selected IP address automatically takes the functi=
on of the HoA for this session. This has the advantage that conventional tr=
ansport is used as long as the mobile does not move, i.e. mobility headers =
and CoA-vs-HoA mapping is not needed. The HoA must have been generated via =
CGA in compliance with RFC 4866.
*       The mobile must conduct a "home-test" from this HoA in compliance w=
ith RFC 4866. It may conduct the home-test prior to session establishment, =
e.g. to find out if the correspondent supports the standard.
*       All binding update handshakes are conducted on the direct path acco=
rding to RFC 4866.
*       Since sessions are always started from a currently supported IP add=
ress, temporally overlapping sessions may use different HoAs. A multi-homed=
 mobile may also decide to start sessions from different simultaneously sup=
ported IP addresses. There is no principle problem here.
*       Opposed to RFC 4866, the mobile need not perform the CoA registrati=
on with the HA.
*       The mobile must be able to deregister the HoA at the correspondent =
in case the HoA is not supported anymore. This ensures that the corresponde=
nt does not send packets to the HoA. After deregistration of the HoA, the H=
oA is still used by higher protocol layers of ongoing sessions. It must sti=
ll be included in the mobility headers for these sessions.
*       When the mobile has HA support and the HA becomes temporarily unava=
ilable, the mobile simply continues R/O without HA as outlined in the prior=
 points.
*       The mobile can publish its IP address in any location service. This=
 allows other hosts to initiate sessions with the mobile. These sessions en=
joy route-optimized mobility support only if the published IP address was g=
enerated via CGA in compliance with RFC 4866.

OPEN ISSUES
These extensions have to be made compliant with RFC 5648 (multiple CoA regi=
stration), RFC 3963 (NEMO) and others. More discussions are necessary.

Georg,

Regarding #1 I haven't decided yet I would like the group to discuss more. =
The authorization of the MN to use a given HA could be asserted in a couple=
 of different ways, including but not limited to, a) the HA only allows cre=
ation of initial binding for on-(home)-link MN, b) the HA only allows creat=
ion of initial bindings for on-site MNs, i.e., CoA in a provider prefix blo=
ck, and c) the HA has access to a list of CGA public keys that are authoriz=
ed to create bindings.

Regarding #2, if I am not mistaken, at least the 3GPP Evolved Packet System=
 mandates stateless address autoconfiguration for global addresses. Only th=
e link-local address is generated from the IID sent by the GW.

Best,

Julien,

Thanks for the info. I like your proposal. CGA provides cryptographic secur=
ity without need for trust-relationships, PKI, pre-shared keys, etc.

1) When IPsec is replaced by CGA, MN only proves the authenticity of its Ho=
A to the HA. It does not authenticate itself in absolute terms, i.e. via me=
ans of strong authentication as required by IPsec or TLS. How would the HA =
know that this MN is authorized to use the HA's services?

2) Do we have any idea to what extend stateless addressing is "supported"? =
Does (or will) 3GPP allow stateless addressing?


-Georg

Thanks for clarifying, this is what I thought. FWIW, I've tried to extend t=

Julien,

The intentions of Homeless MIPv6 are similar to those of our proposal.

In contrast to Homeless MIPv6, our proposal requires only minimal upgrades =
to the present standard and implementation. (Homeless MIPv6 requires change=
s to the TCP/UDP and requires AH, for instance).

Here's the core idea of HA-free R/O:
1)     When starting a session, the MN self-declares its current IP address=
 as the "HoA" for this session. This automatically means that it resides in=
 its "home network" and can conduct the home test directly with CN, i.e. no=
 home registration required.
2)     All further BU/BA signaling is done directly with CN according to RF=
C 4866.
3)     All further signaling with HA is simply omitted.

Our proposal builds on "enhanced route optimization" (RFC 4866), which prov=
ides a nice security solution for R/O and creates the ground for HA-free op=
eration.
Little changes are required: e.g. MN must be able to deregister its HoA at =
CN, etc.

Regards,

Georg

Subject: [MEXT] Support of route optimization in *absence* of HA

All,

We would like to add a proposal to MEXT that permits the mobile to engage i=
nto route-optimization in *absence* of a home agent.

Such a feature adds robustness to route optimization in case the HA is temp=
orarily unavailable. Under some circumstances, route optimization *without*=
 HA may be beneficial for performance reasons. Our proposal requires "enhan=
ced route optimization for Mobile IPv6" (RFC 4866) as pre-requisite.

We would like to obtain some feedback from the MEXT community via this mail=
ing list before we submit the proposal as a draft to the workgroup. For thi=
s purpose, we have enclosed a high-level outline below. Thanks.

Proposal: Support of Route-Optimization in Absence of Home Agent

ABSTRACT:
The proposal allows the mobile to engage into route optimization (R/O) in *=
absence* of a HA. This feature increases robustness when the HA becomes tem=
porarily unavailable. Under some circumstances, R/O *without* HA may be ben=
eficial for performance reasons. This proposal requires "enhanced route opt=
imization for Mobile IPv6" (RFC 4866) as pre-requisite.

MOTIVATION:
In route optimization (R/O), traffic packets are directly exchanged between=
 hosts without passing the HA. The mobile, however, still has to interact w=
ith the HA. The HA provides (1) location service, (2) a fallback path in ca=
se the direct path breaks, (3) a fallback in case the correspondent does no=
t support the protocol and (4) security support for R/O-related signaling (=
i.e. home test). These functions come at the following cost:
*       Handovers may fail when the link to the HA or the HA itself are dow=
n or congested. Mobility is not supported, when the mobile does not have a =
HA.
*       When the mobile starts a session outside of its home network, it mu=
st use a HoA pertaining to its home network even if it engages into R/O. Th=
is requirement adds air-interface overhead due to mobility headers and proc=
essing overhead on the mobile. This upfront cost incurs even if the mobile =
does not move during the session.
*       Signaling handshakes have to be conducted between mobile and HA at =
every mobility event.

Currently, the Mobile IPv6 standard family forces the mobile to bear these =
disadvantages in R/O even if the HA functions are not needed. This specific=
ally applies to scenarios where:
*       Traffic is based on mobile-initiated requests to public servers (ma=
jority of present mobile internet traffic). The HA's location service is no=
t needed for such traffic. Location service may also be provided by other m=
eans such as Dynamic DNS or on application layer (e.g. SIP registrar).
*       The fallback path through the HA has little value when it shares th=
e weakest link with the direct path. Since the weakest link is typically th=
e wireless link, this situation applies to all scenarios where only one air=
 interface is available (this is the typical case rather than the exception=
).
*       The mobile may know about the correspondent's Mobile-IPv6 support f=
rom prior sessions or through means external to the standard.
*       The mobile applies the CGA-based procedure of RFC 4866, which makes=
 the HA's security support for R/O unnecessary. This applies to all cases w=
here stateless addressing is permitted.

To increase the flexibility and robustness of route-optimized Mobile IPv6, =
we propose to make the HA an *optional* rather than a *mandatory* feature, =
i.e. to permit operation without HA. This proposal requires some additional=
 extensions to the present standard.

HIGH-LEVEL OUTLINE
The extensions build on Enhanced Route Optimization for Mobile IPv6 (RFC 48=
66) to guarantee sufficient signaling security. With the absence of a HA, m=
obility support in R/O can be provided in the following manner:
*       The mobile starts the traffic session from any of its currently sup=
ported IP addresses. The selected IP address automatically takes the functi=
on of the HoA for this session. This has the advantage that conventional tr=
ansport is used as long as the mobile does not move, i.e. mobility headers =
and CoA-vs-HoA mapping is not needed. The HoA must have been generated via =
CGA in compliance with RFC 4866.
*       The mobile must conduct a "home-test" from this HoA in compliance w=
ith RFC 4866. It may conduct the home-test prior to session establishment, =
e.g. to find out if the correspondent supports the standard.
*       All binding update handshakes are conducted on the direct path acco=
rding to RFC 4866.
*       Since sessions are always started from a currently supported IP add=
ress, temporally overlapping sessions may use different HoAs. A multi-homed=
 mobile may also decide to start sessions from different simultaneously sup=
ported IP addresses. There is no principle problem here.
*       Opposed to RFC 4866, the mobile need not perform the CoA registrati=
on with the HA.
*       The mobile must be able to deregister the HoA at the correspondent =
in case the HoA is not supported anymore. This ensures that the corresponde=
nt does not send packets to the HoA. After deregistration of the HoA, the H=
oA is still used by higher protocol layers of ongoing sessions. It must sti=
ll be included in the mobility headers for these sessions.
*       When the mobile has HA support and the HA becomes temporarily unava=
ilable, the mobile simply continues R/O without HA as outlined in the prior=
 points.
*       The mobile can publish its IP address in any location service. This=
 allows other hosts to initiate sessions with the mobile. These sessions en=
joy route-optimized mobility support only if the published IP address was g=
enerated via CGA in compliance with RFC 4866.

OPEN ISSUES
These extensions have to be made compliant with RFC 5648 (multiple CoA regi=
stration), RFC 3963 (NEMO) and others. More discussions are necessary.

, however, still has to interact with the HA. The HA provides
 (1) location service, (2) a fallback path in case the direct path breaks, =
(3) a fallback in case the correspondent does not support the protocol and =
(4) security support for R/O-related signaling (i.e. home test). These func=

uisite. =0A>=0A> =0A>MOTIVATION:=0A>In route optimization (R/O), traffic pa=
ckets are directly exchanged between =0A>hosts without passing the HA. The =
mobile, however, still has to interact with =0A>the HA. The HA provides  (1=
) location service, (2) a fallback path in case the =0A>direct path breaks,=
 (3) a fallback in case the correspondent does not support =0A>the protocol=
 and (4) security support for R/O-related signaling (i.e. home =0A>test). T=
hese functions come at the following cost:=0A>=C2=B7       Handovers may fa=
il when the link to the HA or the HA itself are down or =0A=0A>congested. M=
obility is not supported, when the mobile does not have a HA.=0A>=C2=B7    =
   When the mobile starts a session outside of its home network, it must =
=0A>use a HoA pertaining to its home network even if it engages into R/O. T=
his =0A>requirement adds  air-interface overhead due to mobility headers an=
d processing =0A=0A>overhead on the mobile. This upfront cost incurs even i=
f the mobile does not =0A>move during the session.=0A>=C2=B7       Signalin=
g handshakes have to be conducted between mobile and HA at every =0A>=0A>mo=
bility event.=0A> =0A>Currently, the Mobile IPv6 standard family forces the=
 mobile to bear these =0A>disadvantages in R/O even if the HA functions are=
 not needed. This specifically =0A=0A>applies to scenarios  where: =0A>=0A>=
=C2=B7       Traffic is based on mobile-initiated requests to public server=
s =0A>(majority of present mobile internet traffic). The HA=E2=80=99s locat=
ion service is not =0A=0A>needed for such traffic.  Location service may al=
so be provided by other means =0A>such as Dynamic DNS or on application lay=
er (e.g. SIP registrar).=0A>=C2=B7       The fallback path through the HA h=
as little value when it shares the =0A>weakest link with the direct path. S=
ince the weakest link is typically the =0A>wireless link, this  situation a=
pplies to all scenarios where only one air =0A>interface is available (this=
 is the typical case rather than the exception).=0A>=C2=B7       The mobile=
 may know about the correspondent=E2=80=99s Mobile-IPv6 support from =0A>pr=
ior sessions or through means external to the standard. =0A>=0A>=C2=B7     =
  The mobile applies the CGA-based procedure of RFC 4866, which makes the =

ll cases where =0A>stateless addressing  is permitted. =0A>=0A> =0A>To incr=

propose to make the HA an *optional* rather than a *mandatory* feature, i.e=

=0A>The extensions build on Enhanced Route Optimization for Mobile IPv6 (RF=

 a HA, mobility =0A>support in R/O  can be provided in the following manner=
:=0A>=C2=B7       The mobile starts the traffic session from any of its cur=

ge that conventional transport =0A>=0A>is used as long as the mobile does n=
ot move, i.e. mobility headers and =0A>CoA-vs-HoA mapping is not needed. Th=
e HoA must have been generated via CGA in =0A>compliance with RFC 4866. =0A=
>=0A>=C2=B7       The mobile must conduct a =E2=80=9Chome-test=E2=80=9D fro=
m this HoA in compliance with =0A>RFC 4866. It may conduct the home-test pr=

Well, I think this I-D should go forward as it solves some issues with 
current thinking of mobile part of the stack, and it has an 
implementation, that works fine.

At some point, I wanted to test the implementation initially provided on 
http://dsmipv6-tls.nokia.net but when I went to the site later it was
no more available (current status). BTW, I was told the source code
would be available for review but never got a pointer. Which
implementation are you using? 

Regarding the draft, I am *against* adopting the document for the reasons
already given on the list a while ago (see [1]):

To me, what the draft describes is a patchwork based on MIPv6, ESP and
TLS. Instead of building on top of those protocols (read modularity and
interoperability), it reuses (hijacks) various blocks of associated
standards in a non-modular way. For instance, one has to reimplement ESP
in userspace to support the protocol.

Additionally, it does not support RO.

We are specifying an encapsulation method in the I-D. To say that one has
to reimplement ESP in userspace is incorrect.
We are reusing TLS which is widely implemented today. I do not see a
problem with reuse.

We are adding RO support to the spec. It is not a big deal to support RO
between MIP6 nodes. Securing the RO signaling messages between the MN-HA
uses the same method used for the BU/BAck messages.

Then please explain how one is supposed to get the format described in
section 6.4 which is *explicitly* borrowed from RFC 4303 w/o
reimplementing it in userspace?

Or are you pushing SP and SA in order to reuse what is already
implemented in the IPsec stack?

BTW, is the packages/sources of your implementation still available
somewhere? I expected the patches to be pushed upstream at some point.

Cheers,

All,

Based on feedback and further thoughts, I propose to permit HA-free operati=
on on a more general level, i.e. for ALL R/O-solutions that permit return-r=
outability procedure WITHOUT participation of the HA. Among those are curre=
ntly:

- RFC 4866: Enhanced R/O for MIPv6

- RFC 4449: Securing MIPv6 R/O using static shared key

- draft-ebalard-mext-ipsec-ro-01: Mobile IPv6 IPsec Route Optimization (IRO=
)


Note that HA-free R/O was already anticipated by RFC 4651 (A Taxonomy and A=
nalysis of Enhancements to Mobile IPv6 Route Optimization). I think it woul=
d add substantial value to MIPv6. RFC 4651 says:



2.4. Robustness Enhancements



   Route Optimization could conceptually enable continued communications

   during periods of temporary home-agent unavailability.  The protocol

   defined in RFC 3775 does not achieve this independence, however, as

   the home agent plays an active role in the return-routability

   procedure.  Appropriate enhancements could increase the independence

   from the home agent and thus enable robust Route Optimization even in

   the absence of the home agent.

Regards,
- Georg

Georg,

Regarding #1 I haven't decided yet I would like the group to discuss more. =
The authorization of the MN to use a given HA could be asserted in a couple=
 of different ways, including but not limited to, a) the HA only allows cre=
ation of initial binding for on-(home)-link MN, b) the HA only allows creat=
ion of initial bindings for on-site MNs, i.e., CoA in a provider prefix blo=
ck, and c) the HA has access to a list of CGA public keys that are authoriz=
ed to create bindings.

Regarding #2, if I am not mistaken, at least the 3GPP Evolved Packet System=
 mandates stateless address autoconfiguration for global addresses. Only th=
e link-local address is generated from the IID sent by the GW.

Julien,

Thanks for the info. I like your proposal. CGA provides cryptographic secur=
ity without need for trust-relationships, PKI, pre-shared keys, etc.

1) When IPsec is replaced by CGA, MN only proves the authenticity of its Ho=
A to the HA. It does not authenticate itself in absolute terms, i.e. via me=
ans of strong authentication as required by IPsec or TLS. How would the HA =
know that this MN is authorized to use the HA's services?

2) Do we have any idea to what extend stateless addressing is "supported"? =
Does (or will) 3GPP allow stateless addressing?

Thanks for clarifying, this is what I thought. FWIW, I've tried to extend t=

Julien,

The intentions of Homeless MIPv6 are similar to those of our proposal.

In contrast to Homeless MIPv6, our proposal requires only minimal upgrades =
to the present standard and implementation. (Homeless MIPv6 requires change=
s to the TCP/UDP and requires AH, for instance).

Here's the core idea of HA-free R/O:
1)       When starting a session, the MN self-declares its current IP addre=
ss as the "HoA" for this session. This automatically means that it resides =
in its "home network" and can conduct the home test directly with CN, i.e. =
no home registration required.
2)       All further BU/BA signaling is done directly with CN according to =
RFC 4866.
3)       All further signaling with HA is simply omitted.

Our proposal builds on "enhanced route optimization" (RFC 4866), which prov=
ides a nice security solution for R/O and creates the ground for HA-free op=
eration.
Little changes are required: e.g. MN must be able to deregister its HoA at =
CN, etc.

Regards,

Georg

Subject: [MEXT] Support of route optimization in *absence* of HA

All,

We would like to add a proposal to MEXT that permits the mobile to engage i=
nto route-optimization in *absence* of a home agent.

Such a feature adds robustness to route optimization in case the HA is temp=
orarily unavailable. Under some circumstances, route optimization *without*=
 HA may be beneficial for performance reasons. Our proposal requires "enhan=
ced route optimization for Mobile IPv6" (RFC 4866) as pre-requisite.

We would like to obtain some feedback from the MEXT community via this mail=
ing list before we submit the proposal as a draft to the workgroup. For thi=
s purpose, we have enclosed a high-level outline below. Thanks.

Regards,

Proposal: Support of Route-Optimization in Absence of Home Agent

ABSTRACT:
The proposal allows the mobile to engage into route optimization (R/O) in *=
absence* of a HA. This feature increases robustness when the HA becomes tem=
porarily unavailable. Under some circumstances, R/O *without* HA may be ben=
eficial for performance reasons. This proposal requires "enhanced route opt=
imization for Mobile IPv6" (RFC 4866) as pre-requisite.

MOTIVATION:
In route optimization (R/O), traffic packets are directly exchanged between=
 hosts without passing the HA. The mobile, however, still has to interact w=
ith the HA. The HA provides (1) location service, (2) a fallback path in ca=
se the direct path breaks, (3) a fallback in case the correspondent does no=
t support the protocol and (4) security support for R/O-related signaling (=
i.e. home test). These functions come at the following cost:
*       Handovers may fail when the link to the HA or the HA itself are dow=
n or congested. Mobility is not supported, when the mobile does not have a =
HA.
*       When the mobile starts a session outside of its home network, it mu=
st use a HoA pertaining to its home network even if it engages into R/O. Th=
is requirement adds air-interface overhead due to mobility headers and proc=
essing overhead on the mobile. This upfront cost incurs even if the mobile =
does not move during the session.
*       Signaling handshakes have to be conducted between mobile and HA at =
every mobility event.

Currently, the Mobile IPv6 standard family forces the mobile to bear these =
disadvantages in R/O even if the HA functions are not needed. This specific=
ally applies to scenarios where:
*       Traffic is based on mobile-initiated requests to public servers (ma=
jority of present mobile internet traffic). The HA's location service is no=
t needed for such traffic. Location service may also be provided by other m=
eans such as Dynamic DNS or on application layer (e.g. SIP registrar).
*       The fallback path through the HA has little value when it shares th=
e weakest link with the direct path. Since the weakest link is typically th=
e wireless link, this situation applies to all scenarios where only one air=
 interface is available (this is the typical case rather than the exception=
).
*       The mobile may know about the correspondent's Mobile-IPv6 support f=
rom prior sessions or through means external to the standard.
*       The mobile applies the CGA-based procedure of RFC 4866, which makes=
 the HA's security support for R/O unnecessary. This applies to all cases w=
here stateless addressing is permitted.

To increase the flexibility and robustness of route-optimized Mobile IPv6, =
we propose to make the HA an *optional* rather than a *mandatory* feature, =
i.e. to permit operation without HA. This proposal requires some additional=
 extensions to the present standard.

HIGH-LEVEL OUTLINE
The extensions build on Enhanced Route Optimization for Mobile IPv6 (RFC 48=
66) to guarantee sufficient signaling security. With the absence of a HA, m=
obility support in R/O can be provided in the following manner:
*       The mobile starts the traffic session from any of its currently sup=
ported IP addresses. The selected IP address automatically takes the functi=
on of the HoA for this session. This has the advantage that conventional tr=
ansport is used as long as the mobile does not move, i.e. mobility headers =
and CoA-vs-HoA mapping is not needed. The HoA must have been generated via =
CGA in compliance with RFC 4866.
*       The mobile must conduct a "home-test" from this HoA in compliance w=
ith RFC 4866. It may conduct the home-test prior to session establishment, =
e.g. to find out if the correspondent supports the standard.
*       All binding update handshakes are conducted on the direct path acco=
rding to RFC 4866.
*       Since sessions are always started from a currently supported IP add=
ress, temporally overlapping sessions may use different HoAs. A multi-homed=
 mobile may also decide to start sessions from different simultaneously sup=
ported IP addresses. There is no principle problem here.
*       Opposed to RFC 4866, the mobile need not perform the CoA registrati=
on with the HA.
*       The mobile must be able to deregister the HoA at the correspondent =
in case the HoA is not supported anymore. This ensures that the corresponde=
nt does not send packets to the HoA. After deregistration of the HoA, the H=
oA is still used by higher protocol layers of ongoing sessions. It must sti=
ll be included in the mobility headers for these sessions.
*       When the mobile has HA support and the HA becomes temporarily unava=
ilable, the mobile simply continues R/O without HA as outlined in the prior=
 points.
*       The mobile can publish its IP address in any location service. This=
 allows other hosts to initiate sessions with the mobile. These sessions en=
joy route-optimized mobility support only if the published IP address was g=
enerated via CGA in compliance with RFC 4866.

OPEN ISSUES
These extensions have to be made compliant with RFC 5648 (multiple CoA regi=
stration), RFC 3963 (NEMO) and others. More discussions are necessary.

Description of Working Group:

Mobile IPv6 specifies routing support which permits an IPv6 host to
continue using its home address as it moves around the Internet,
enabling continuity of sessions. Mobile IPv6 supports transparency above
the IP layer, including maintenance of active transport level sessions.
In addition, network mobility (NEMO) mechanisms built on top of Mobile
IPv6 allow managing the mobility of an entire network, as it changes its
point of attachment to the Internet. The base specifications consist of:

  o RFC 3775 (Mobile IPv6)
  o RFC 3963 (NEMO)
  o RFC 4877 (Mobile IPv6 Operation with IKEv2)
  o RFC 5555 (Dual Stack Mobile IPv6)
  o RFC 5648 (Multiple Care-of Addresses Registration)
  o RFC 5846 (Binding Revocation)
  o RFC-to-be (Flow Binding Policy Transport and Flow Binding Policy 
    Format)

The MEXT Working Group continues the work of the former MIP6, NEMO, and
MONAMI6 Working Groups.

The primary goal of MEXT will be to enhance base IPv6 mobility by
continuing work on developments that are required for wide-scale
deployments and specific deployment scenarios. Additionally, the working
group will ensure that any issues identified by implementation and
interoperability experience are addressed, and that the base
specifications are maintained. The group will also produce informational
documentation, such as design rationale documents or description of
specific issues within the protocol.

The MEXT WG will also explore experimental alternative security
mechanisms. The security mechanism specified in the existing standard
track RFCs (RFC3775bis, RFC4877) remains the mandatory to implement
mechanism that guarantees interoperability between different
implementations. The MEXT WG is chartered to deliver one or more
experimental alternative mechanisms. All the alternative solutions will
be published as experimental RFCs.

The working group will also work on operational considerations on
setting up Mobile IPv6 networks so that traffic is distributed 
in an optimal way, for instance by using existing protocol mechanisms
to select the closest home agents for new clients.

In addition, the working group will bring to completion earlier work on
prefix delegation for NEMO, RADIUS  support for Mobile IPv6, Mobile IPv6
operation with firewalls, and home agent reliability specifications.

Work items related to base specification maintenance include: Create and
maintain issue lists that are generated on the basis of implementation
and interoperability experience. Address specific issues with specific
updates or revisions of the base specification. Currently known specific
issues include support for overlapping (private) IPv4 home addresses,
negotiation of the protection required for payload traffic, and
discovery of the home agent address in IPv4-only networks.

Goals and Milestones:

Jun 2011 - Submit I-D 'Mobile IPv6 Operation with Firewalls' to IESG for

           publication as Informational.
Jun 2011 - Submit I-D 'Home agent reliability' to IESG for publication 
           as a Proposed Standard.
Aug 2011 - Submit I-Ds on alternative security mechanisms to the IESG 
           for publication as Experimental.
Sep 2011 - Submit I-D 'Overlapping IPv4 address support' to IESG for 
           publication as Proposed Standard.
Sep 2011 - Submit I-D 'Home agent discovery in IPv4-only networks via 
           DHCP' to IESG for publication as Proposed Standard.
Oct 2011 - Submit I-D 'Operational considerations for distributed use of 
           Mobile IPv6' for publication as Informational
Dec 2011 - Submit I-D 'Negotiation of the protection for payload 
           traffic' to IESG for publication as Proposed Standard.
Dec 2011 - Submit the I-D 'RADIUS Mobile IPv6 Support' to IESG for 
           publication as a proposed standard.

Thanks for listing these 3 documents.

For what it's worth...

I think it would be good to decouple the security effort from the
HA-less part of the effort.

I would thus go further with the proposal to operate on a more general
level.  Do you have anything against a basic RO HA-less which is
security-less as well?

If against, then it would make sense to talk _Secure_ HA-less RO RR.

If for, then it would make sense to cite
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-petrescu-autoconf-ra-based-routing-00
and MNPP draft along the 3 documents you cited.

I think a basic RO HA-less which is independent of the security
mechanism could become a place for adding more security later.  For
example: add a widely deployed certificate-based https security which
secures a link layer (and not CGA, not Mobile IP RR tests).

I think that if one tries to further develop existing Mobile IP security
mechanisms (CGA, IKE, RR tests) then the goal should be
stated in the title, call the effort a security effort, and not simply
RO, nor simply RR.

For example: return routability tests (called RR in Mobile IP only)
exists in other protocols as well (TCP) yet they're not as highly secure
as in Mobile IPv6 (nonces, keys).  In this sense, in Mobile IP, RR is
actually a security effort.

RO of Mobile IP does not exist without RR, hence RO is also a security
effort.

However, it is possible to achieve optimal paths ("route optimization"),
without using security.  For example, most paths in the Internet are
highly optimal in terms of path length, yet very few of them are
established securely.

I think Mobile IP needs means to offer optimal paths CN-MH (move HA out
of the path). However, the effort of offering these paths is not
necessarily a security effort.

>
> The proposal allows the mobile to engage into route optimization

> R/O *without* HA may be beneficial for performance reasons. This

>
> MOTIVATION:
>
> In route optimization (R/O), traffic packets are directly exchanged
> between hosts without passing the HA. The mobile, however, still has
> to interact with the HA. The HA provides (1) location service, (2) a
> fallback path in case the direct path breaks, (3) a fallback in case
> the correspondent does not support the protocol and (4) security
> support for R/O-related signaling (i.e. home test). These functions
> come at the following cost:
>
> ·Handovers may fail when the link to the HA or the HA itself are
> down or congested. Mobility is not supported, when the mobile does
> not have a HA.
>
> ·When the mobile starts a session outside of its home network, it
> must use a HoA pertaining to its home network even if it engages
> into R/O. This requirement adds air-interface overhead due to
> mobility headers and processing overhead on the mobile. This upfront
> cost incurs even if the mobile does not move during the session.
>
> ·Signaling handshakes have to be conducted between mobile and HA at
> every mobility event.
>
> Currently, the Mobile IPv6 standard family forces the mobile to bear
> these disadvantages in R/O even if the HA functions are not needed.
> This specifically applies to scenarios where:
>
> ·Traffic is based on mobile-initiated requests to public servers
> (majority of present mobile internet traffic). The HA’s location
> service is not needed for such traffic. Location service may also be
> provided by other means such as Dynamic DNS or on application layer
> (e.g. SIP registrar).
>
> ·The fallback path through the HA has little value when it shares
> the weakest link with the direct path. Since the weakest link is
> typically the wireless link, this situation applies to all scenarios
> where only one air interface is available (this is the typical case
> rather than the exception).
>
> ·The mobile may know about the correspondent’s Mobile-IPv6 support
> from prior sessions or through means external to the standard.
>
> ·The mobile applies the CGA-based procedure of RFC 4866, which makes
> the HA’s security support for R/O unnecessary. This applies to all
> cases where stateless addressing is permitted.
>
> To increase the flexibility and robustness of route-optimized Mobile
> IPv6, we propose to make the HA an *optional* rather than a
> *mandatory* feature, i.e. to permit operation without HA. This
> proposal requires some additional extensions to the present
> standard.
>
> HIGH-LEVEL OUTLINE
>
> The extensions build on Enhanced Route Optimization for Mobile IPv6
> (RFC 4866) to guarantee sufficient signaling security. With the
> absence of a HA, mobility support in R/O can be provided in the
> following manner:
>
> ·The mobile starts the traffic session from any of its currently
> supported IP addresses. The selected IP address automatically takes
> the function of the HoA for this session. This has the advantage
> that conventional transport is used as long as the mobile does not
> move, i.e. mobility headers and CoA-vs-HoA mapping is not needed. The
> HoA must have been generated via CGA in compliance with RFC 4866.
>
> ·The mobile must conduct a “home-test” from this HoA in compliance
> with RFC 4866. It may conduct the home-test prior to session
> establishment, e.g. to find out if the correspondent supports the
> standard.
>
> ·All binding update handshakes are conducted on the direct path
> according to RFC 4866.
>
> ·Since sessions are always started from a currently supported IP
> address, temporally overlapping sessions may use different HoAs. A
> multi-homed mobile may also decide to start sessions from different
> simultaneously supported IP addresses. There is no principle problem
> here.
>
> ·Opposed to RFC 4866, the mobile need not perform the CoA
> registration with the HA.
>
> ·The mobile must be able to deregister the HoA at the correspondent
> in case the HoA is not supported anymore. This ensures that the
> correspondent does not send packets to the HoA. After deregistration
> of the HoA, the HoA is still used by higher protocol layers of
> ongoing sessions. It must still be included in the mobility headers
> for these sessions.
>
> ·When the mobile has HA support and the HA becomes temporarily
> unavailable, the mobile simply continues R/O without HA as outlined
> in the prior points.
>
> ·The mobile can publish its IP address in any location service. This
> allows other hosts to initiate sessions with the mobile. These
> sessions enjoy route-optimized mobility support only if the
> published IP address was generated via CGA in compliance with RFC
> 4866.
>
> OPEN ISSUES
>
> These extensions have to be made compliant with RFC 5648 (multiple
> CoA registration), RFC 3963 (NEMO) and others. More discussions are
> necessary.

Hi Alex,

I think there are principle concerns about host-based mobility solutions wi=
thout proper security (see RFC 4225 for instance). HA-free RO without secur=
ity would fall into that space. Obviously, it would be of advantage to keep=
 HA-free RO as general as possible, i.e. without relying on a *specific* se=
curity solution.

Regarding mobile routers + optimal paths: Shouldn't this be covered by rout=
e-optimized NEMO?

Georg

Thanks for listing these 3 documents.

For what it's worth...

I think it would be good to decouple the security effort from the
HA-less part of the effort.

I would thus go further with the proposal to operate on a more general
level.  Do you have anything against a basic RO HA-less which is
security-less as well?

If against, then it would make sense to talk _Secure_ HA-less RO RR.

If for, then it would make sense to cite
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-petrescu-autoconf-ra-based-routing-00
and MNPP draft along the 3 documents you cited.

I think a basic RO HA-less which is independent of the security
mechanism could become a place for adding more security later.  For
example: add a widely deployed certificate-based https security which
secures a link layer (and not CGA, not Mobile IP RR tests).

I think that if one tries to further develop existing Mobile IP security
mechanisms (CGA, IKE, RR tests) then the goal should be
stated in the title, call the effort a security effort, and not simply
RO, nor simply RR.

For example: return routability tests (called RR in Mobile IP only)
exists in other protocols as well (TCP) yet they're not as highly secure
as in Mobile IPv6 (nonces, keys).  In this sense, in Mobile IP, RR is
actually a security effort.

RO of Mobile IP does not exist without RR, hence RO is also a security
effort.

However, it is possible to achieve optimal paths ("route optimization"),
without using security.  For example, most paths in the Internet are
highly optimal in terms of path length, yet very few of them are
established securely.

I think Mobile IP needs means to offer optimal paths CN-MH (move HA out
of the path). However, the effort of offering these paths is not
necessarily a security effort.

>
> =B7When the mobile starts a session outside of its home network, it

>
> =B7Signaling handshakes have to be conducted between mobile and HA at

>
> Currently, the Mobile IPv6 standard family forces the mobile to bear
> these disadvantages in R/O even if the HA functions are not needed.

>
> =B7The fallback path through the HA has little value when it shares

So the question is: Is your intent to provide a UDP encapsulation format fo=
r the already specified ESP protocol, or to provide an alternative encapsul=
ation format to ESP?

Hi,

I also tested the implementation, which worked very well, succeeding in
setting up an inter-continental MIPv6 connection without any hassle. I
believe that the I-D can resolve one of the deployment issues and thus
support it as a WG draft. I hope to see it really deployed in commercial
mobile networks and devices.

Regards,

Few things. The draft already states that "The Padding, Pad Length, Next
Header and ICV fields follow the rules of Section 2.4 to 2.8 of =
[RFC4303]
unless otherwise stated in this document." So, we follow the ESP format
but feel no shame on changing it if we see a reason to do so.

The reason why we chose to do it like this was two fold: 1) some ciphers
etc when used would need ~equivalent encapsulation anyway. 2) if we had
come up with our very own format the question on the list would have
been "why not using RFC4303 encapsulation format". Actually.. the latter
already happened offline.

Hi,

  HA-less RO sounds like a very interesting effort. The resemblances to ad-=
hoc routing are quite large though. From how I understood the draft, the us=
e case and primary scenario is the situation where the mobile node has most=
ly outbound traffic, and simply needs to make sure that sessions don't get =
interrupted if the node moves.

  I agree that security should probably be made "modular" in the sense that=
 you are free to secure the RO with any way you choose, or even without any=
 security at all (in a trusted environment).

  In essence the current suggestion sounds like:
  Mobile Node chooses a "HoA" from one of the current interface addresses a=
nd acts as it's in "home network"
  Starts communicating with CN
  If node moves, tell the CN via RO procedure that me, previously at home, =
now have a CoA that corresponds to my HoA
  Any new sessions should use the new network's address as "HoA", and if th=
e session to the CN ends, the RO should be torn down as well.

  My primary concerns with this basic idea are related to persistent sessio=
ns - some application connecting to the CN and keeping the same connection,=
 so the MN can never relinquish the HoA. This leads to the philosophical is=
sue about if you are a mobile node and using such "ad-hoc" HoAs that you ha=
ve picked up on the way, do you have the permission to make such address mo=
bile (take it out of the network)?

  In an environment with HA, the HA gives you explicit permission that yes,=
 you can use this address, from my network, owned by me, to communicate wit=
h rest of the world.
  Without HA, considering whatever network you happen to be in when first c=
ommunicating to a CN your "home network" - should the MN be allowed to move=
 the HoA away?
  For how long? Until DHCPv6 lease expires? Until RA timer expires? When?

Thanks for listing these 3 documents.

For what it's worth...

I think it would be good to decouple the security effort from the
HA-less part of the effort.

I would thus go further with the proposal to operate on a more general
level.  Do you have anything against a basic RO HA-less which is
security-less as well?

If against, then it would make sense to talk _Secure_ HA-less RO RR.

If for, then it would make sense to cite
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-petrescu-autoconf-ra-based-routing-00
and MNPP draft along the 3 documents you cited.

I think a basic RO HA-less which is independent of the security
mechanism could become a place for adding more security later.  For
example: add a widely deployed certificate-based https security which
secures a link layer (and not CGA, not Mobile IP RR tests).

I think that if one tries to further develop existing Mobile IP security
mechanisms (CGA, IKE, RR tests) then the goal should be
stated in the title, call the effort a security effort, and not simply
RO, nor simply RR.

For example: return routability tests (called RR in Mobile IP only)
exists in other protocols as well (TCP) yet they're not as highly secure
as in Mobile IPv6 (nonces, keys).  In this sense, in Mobile IP, RR is
actually a security effort.

RO of Mobile IP does not exist without RR, hence RO is also a security
effort.

However, it is possible to achieve optimal paths ("route optimization"),
without using security.  For example, most paths in the Internet are
highly optimal in terms of path length, yet very few of them are
established securely.

I think Mobile IP needs means to offer optimal paths CN-MH (move HA out
of the path). However, the effort of offering these paths is not
necessarily a security effort.

> MOTIVATION:
>
> In route optimization (R/O), traffic packets are directly exchanged
> between hosts without passing the HA. The mobile, however, still has
> to interact with the HA. The HA provides (1) location service, (2) a
> fallback path in case the direct path breaks, (3) a fallback in case
> the correspondent does not support the protocol and (4) security
> support for R/O-related signaling (i.e. home test). These functions
> come at the following cost:
>
> =B7Handovers may fail when the link to the HA or the HA itself are
> down or congested. Mobility is not supported, when the mobile does
> not have a HA.
>
> =B7When the mobile starts a session outside of its home network, it
> must use a HoA pertaining to its home network even if it engages
> into R/O. This requirement adds air-interface overhead due to
> mobility headers and processing overhead on the mobile. This upfront
> cost incurs even if the mobile does not move during the session.
>
> =B7Signaling handshakes have to be conducted between mobile and HA at
> every mobility event.
>
> Currently, the Mobile IPv6 standard family forces the mobile to bear
> these disadvantages in R/O even if the HA functions are not needed.
> This specifically applies to scenarios where:
>
> =B7Traffic is based on mobile-initiated requests to public servers
> (majority of present mobile internet traffic). The HA=92s location
> service is not needed for such traffic. Location service may also be
> provided by other means such as Dynamic DNS or on application layer
> (e.g. SIP registrar).
>
> =B7The fallback path through the HA has little value when it shares
> the weakest link with the direct path. Since the weakest link is
> typically the wireless link, this situation applies to all scenarios
> where only one air interface is available (this is the typical case
> rather than the exception).
>
> =B7The mobile may know about the correspondent=92s Mobile-IPv6 support
> from prior sessions or through means external to the standard.
>
> =B7The mobile applies the CGA-based procedure of RFC 4866, which makes
> the HA=92s security support for R/O unnecessary. This applies to all
> cases where stateless addressing is permitted.
>
> To increase the flexibility and robustness of route-optimized Mobile

> standard.
>
> HIGH-LEVEL OUTLINE
>
> The extensions build on Enhanced Route Optimization for Mobile IPv6
> (RFC 4866) to guarantee sufficient signaling security. With the
> absence of a HA, mobility support in R/O can be provided in the
> following manner:
>
> =B7The mobile starts the traffic session from any of its currently

> the function of the HoA for this session. This has the advantage
> that conventional transport is used as long as the mobile does not
> move, i.e. mobility headers and CoA-vs-HoA mapping is not needed. The
> HoA must have been generated via CGA in compliance with RFC 4866.
>
> =B7The mobile must conduct a =93home-test=94 from this HoA in compliance

>
> =B7All binding update handshakes are conducted on the direct path

>
> =B7Since sessions are always started from a currently supported IP

> =B7Opposed to RFC 4866, the mobile need not perform the CoA

 I support this draft moving forward and becoming a WG document. IMO
the current IPSec based security for MIP6 does have its drawbacks and
this draft offers an interesting alternative. I was able to play
around a bit with a MIP6 client implementing this draft, and it worked
flawlessly and to set it up was a breeze.

Hi Antti,

It would make sense to quantify your concerns about persistent connections =
that "borrow" IP addresses from foreign networks for extended time. I don't=
 see a problem if the "HoA" is only used by upper layers, i.e. when the MN =
has already moved to another netowrk. DHCPv6 lease expiry may be a problem =
when the MN stays in the foreign network for an extended period of time and=
 the lease cannot be renewed (Stateless address autoconfiguration should no=
t encounter this problem ?!.:)

HA-free RO has other limits:
- Simultaneous movment of both end points cannot be supported in break-befo=
re-make manner.
- Applications that cache and reuse IP addreses after some time run into tr=
ouble if mobility events have occurred in between.
- Mobile servers require support of dynamic location service.

I think HA-free RO should be considered an option which provides net benefi=
ts for a large fraction of traffic. It does not have to cover *all* situati=
ons. I think it is important to identify potential vulnerabilities. In most=
 cases, however, the worst that can happen is that the conenction  breaks.

- Georg

Hi,

  HA-less RO sounds like a very interesting effort. The resemblances to ad-=
hoc routing are quite large though. From how I understood the draft, the us=
e case and primary scenario is the situation where the mobile node has most=
ly outbound traffic, and simply needs to make sure that sessions don't get =
interrupted if the node moves.

  I agree that security should probably be made "modular" in the sense that=
 you are free to secure the RO with any way you choose, or even without any=
 security at all (in a trusted environment).

  In essence the current suggestion sounds like:
  Mobile Node chooses a "HoA" from one of the current interface addresses a=
nd acts as it's in "home network"

  If node moves, tell the CN via RO procedure that me, previously at home, =

  Any new sessions should use the new network's address as "HoA", and if th=

  My primary concerns with this basic idea are related to persistent sessio=

bile (take it out of the network)?

  In an environment with HA, the HA gives you explicit permission that yes,=
 you can use this address, from my network, owned by me, to communicate wit=
h rest of the world.
  Without HA, considering whatever network you happen to be in when first c=
ommunicating to a CN your "home network" - should the MN be allowed to move=
 the HoA away?
  For how long? Until DHCPv6 lease expires? Until RA timer expires? When?

Subject: Re: [MEXT] Support of route optimization in *absence* of HA

Thanks for listing these 3 documents.

For what it's worth...

I think it would be good to decouple the security effort from the
HA-less part of the effort.

I would thus go further with the proposal to operate on a more general
level.  Do you have anything against a basic RO HA-less which is
security-less as well?

If against, then it would make sense to talk _Secure_ HA-less RO RR.

If for, then it would make sense to cite
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-petrescu-autoconf-ra-based-routing-00
and MNPP draft along the 3 documents you cited.

I think a basic RO HA-less which is independent of the security
mechanism could become a place for adding more security later.  For
example: add a widely deployed certificate-based https security which
secures a link layer (and not CGA, not Mobile IP RR tests).

I think that if one tries to further develop existing Mobile IP security
mechanisms (CGA, IKE, RR tests) then the goal should be
stated in the title, call the effort a security effort, and not simply
RO, nor simply RR.

For example: return routability tests (called RR in Mobile IP only)
exists in other protocols as well (TCP) yet they're not as highly secure
as in Mobile IPv6 (nonces, keys).  In this sense, in Mobile IP, RR is
actually a security effort.

RO of Mobile IP does not exist without RR, hence RO is also a security
effort.

However, it is possible to achieve optimal paths ("route optimization"),
without using security.  For example, most paths in the Internet are
highly optimal in terms of path length, yet very few of them are
established securely.

I think Mobile IP needs means to offer optimal paths CN-MH (move HA out
of the path). However, the effort of offering these paths is not
necessarily a security effort.

>
> Currently, the Mobile IPv6 standard family forces the mobile to bear

> (e.g. SIP registrar).
>
> =B7The fallback path through the HA has little value when it shares
> the weakest link with the direct path. Since the weakest link is

>
> =B7The mobile may know about the correspondent's Mobile-IPv6 support

Hello,

I would like to introduce a new approach to mobility
management, which is an in-built feature of a new
routing and addressing system known as the Internet
Routing Overlay Network (IRON):

http://www.rfc-editor.org/internet-drafts/draft-templin-iron-17.txt

IRON is a product of the IRTF Routing Research Group
(RRG), which was chartered to provide recommendations
on addressing the Internet routing scaling issue. While
the IRON development effort focused primarily on routing
scaling, it soon became clear that mobility management
was also naturally afforded by the base architecture
with no need for adjunct mechanisms. Also, although this
fully-integrated proposal is new many of the concepts were
motivated by earlier works. The document therefore cites
related initiatives which explored similar concepts.

The IRON mobility management approach combines the best
aspects of both proactive and on-demand route discovery.
IRON Clients (which may include mobile end systems and
mobile routers) discover topologically-close IRON Serving
routers (i.e., "Servers") and create a connection with
one of the Servers for the purpose of maintaining=20
bidirectional tunnel neighbor state. The Client then
registers one or more of its interfaces with the Server
so that the Server has handles for sending return traffic
to the Client. Since the Server can observe the public-side
address(es) of the Client without the Client needing to
discover them itself, the system therefore also naturally
supports a simplified form of NAT traversal.=20

When a Client connects to the Server, the Server sends a
"link up" indication via a dynamic routing update that is
propagated to a core set of Relay routers (i.e., "Relays").
In practice, there will be O(10's) of Relays while there
may be several orders of magnitude more Servers that are
topologically distributed throughout the Internet. Only
the Relays need maintain a full topology in their routing
tables; Servers need only maintain routing table entries
for their current set of connected Clients.

When a Client 'A' connected to Server 'Y' has a packet to
send to a new correspondent Client 'B' connected to Server
'Z', 'A' first tunnels the packet to 'Y' as its default
router in the overlay network. Since 'Y' has only partial
topology information, it then tunnels the packet to a Relay
'R'. Since 'R' has full topology knowledge, it then tunnels
the packet to 'Z' which in turn tunnels the packet to 'B'.
At the same time, 'Z' also returns a Redirect message to
inform 'Y' that 'Z' is a better next hop in the overlay
network to reach 'B'. If 'Y' is configured to forward
Redirects to its Clients, it then forwards the Redirect to
'A' which then populates its routing tables with a more-
specific route. Otherwise, 'Y' uses the Redirect to update
its own routing tables. Hence, route optimization is
naturally supported.

When 'A' changes its ISP points of attachement (i.e., when
'A' moves), it need not explicitly inform 'Y' of the changes
as long as it wishes to retain 'Y' as its Server, since 'Y'
will naturally discover any changes in 'A''s address(es) via
the source addresses of 'A''s packets. 'A' also need not
inform any of its recent correspondents about the changes,
since the correspondents can still reach 'A' via 'Y'. Hence,
localized mobility events are communicated implicitly and
immediately with no need for binding updates.

When 'A' moves far away from 'Y', it can leisurely discover
a new nearby Server 'W'. It can then connect to 'W' and
disconnect from 'Y' which will cause dynamic routing between
the overlay network Relays to naturally update 'A''s
Client-to-Server bindings. Hence, routing stretch is
managed without need for delay-sensitive actions.

Finally, the base system does not require Client-to-Client
binding updates. For example, if Client 'C' has a routing
table for 'A' with next-hop 'Y', but 'A' has moved to a
new Server 'W', 'C' will receive Redirect messages from
'Y' informing it that 'A' is now associated with 'W'.
Hence, 'A' need not keep track of recent correspondents,
since any correspondents will naturally be redirected to
'A's new location without risk of packet loss. (Again,
this is a coarse-grained mobility consideration, since
'A' will typically not change to a new Server unless it
moves some significant distance, e.g., 1000 miles).

Comments and questions welcome,

Hi Jouni,

I understand you "follow the ESP format but feel no shame on changing it if=
 we see a reason to do so", but I am (shamelessly ;) wondering about the ac=
tual reason to do so, as per one of the famous Architectural Principles of =
the Internet documented in RFC 1958:=20

   3.2 If there are several ways of doing the same thing, choose one.
   If a previous design, in the Internet context or elsewhere, has
   successfully solved the same problem, choose the same solution unless
   there is a good technical reason not to.  Duplication of the same
   protocol functionality should be avoided as far as possible, without
   of course using this argument to reject improvements.

Would you mind enlightening us?

All,

RFC 3775 makes RH2 and HAO headers on payload packets only a SHOULD require=
ment! It doesn't provide any regulation on how MN/CN should proceed when su=
ch headers are missing.

When omitting these headers, the packet looks like an ordinary transport pa=
cket on the wire, but it carries an INCORRECT transport header checksum. Th=
is means that certain middle boxes may discard the packet which is undesira=
ble.

I therefore propose the following:

1) In RO, a sending host MAY omit HAO and RH2 headers on payload packets.

2) When omitting these headers, the checksum of the lowest transport header=
 MUST be matched to the actual IP header of the packet, i.e. the pseudo hea=
der must be based on CoA rather than HoA.

3) In case the transport protocol is ESP or AH, the host MUST proceed accor=
ding to: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ebalard-mext-ipsec-ro-02.

This means that the sending host must recompute the transport-header checks=
um of packets it receives from the transport layer. The receiving host sear=
ches the binding entries based on the packet's on-the-wire IP addresses (i.=
e. CoA instead of HoA). If such an entry exists, the host recomputes the ch=
ecksum using the HoA from this entry before passing the packet up to the tr=
ansport layer.
In this manner, the higher protocol layers don't feel disturbed and middle-=
box collisions are avoided!

Regards,
-Georg

Do you mean the presence of RH2 and HAO in DestOpt in the packets?

If you intend *to use IPsec/IKE between the peers*, I proposed a
solution to remove RH2 and HAO in DestOpt from packets and also the
need for HoTI/HoT in the following draft:=20

  http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ebalard-mext-ipsec-ro-02

Here is another aspect of the proposal that should be
of interest to this community:

http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-templin-ironmike-00.txt

This shows how the IRON approach aligns with MOBIKE to
present a system for managing VPN links that allows
clients to connect to a nearby VPN gateway that in turn
connects to a trusted and secure network. As clients
change ISP connections, the VPN gateways naturally learn
about the changes. As clients move significant distances,
they simply discover and connect to a different nearby VPN
gateway. Client-to-client communications then are conveyed
across the trusted and secure network. Very simple; very
few moving parts.

None of these two points explains to me why you have to duplicate ESP funct=
ionality:

1) You have chosen to handle SPI differently, but I don't know why.=20

2) As to ESP being absent, if the goal is to not protect some of the user-p=
lane traffic, you can use ESP-NULL, or just the UDP encap...

--julien

None of the above explains why you need to=20

Hi all,

I support this I-D being adopted as WG document. It is useful to
simplify the deployment of MIPv6/DSMIPv6. I also have the chance to
test the implementation on mobile phone, it works fine. Thanks.

Hi All,

One more comment on HA-free operation:

Multi-homed hosts, e.g. smart phones with WLAN and 3G/4G interface, can per=
form HA-free handover between both networks using the straightforward RR pr=
ocedure of RFC 3775. Since both paths are simultaneously supported, MN is a=
lways at home and HoT/HoTi can be supported in parallel to CoT/CoTi.

In this case, 3GPP-mobility runs underneath MIPv6 and would appear as a loc=
al mobility protocol confined to the 3GPP network.

Hi Antti,

It would make sense to quantify your concerns about persistent connections =
that "borrow" IP addresses from foreign networks for extended time. I don't=
 see a problem if the "HoA" is only used by upper layers, i.e. when the MN =
has already moved to another netowrk. DHCPv6 lease expiry may be a problem =
when the MN stays in the foreign network for an extended period of time and=
 the lease cannot be renewed (Stateless address autoconfiguration should no=
t encounter this problem ?!.:)

HA-free RO has other limits:
- Simultaneous movment of both end points cannot be supported in break-befo=
re-make manner.
- Applications that cache and reuse IP addreses after some time run into tr=
ouble if mobility events have occurred in between.
- Mobile servers require support of dynamic location service.

I think HA-free RO should be considered an option which provides net benefi=
ts for a large fraction of traffic. It does not have to cover *all* situati=
ons. I think it is important to identify potential vulnerabilities. In most=
 cases, however, the worst that can happen is that the conenction  breaks.

Hi,

  HA-less RO sounds like a very interesting effort. The resemblances to ad-=
hoc routing are quite large though. From how I understood the draft, the us=
e case and primary scenario is the situation where the mobile node has most=
ly outbound traffic, and simply needs to make sure that sessions don't get =
interrupted if the node moves.

  I agree that security should probably be made "modular" in the sense that=
 you are free to secure the RO with any way you choose, or even without any=
 security at all (in a trusted environment).

  In essence the current suggestion sounds like:
  Mobile Node chooses a "HoA" from one of the current interface addresses a=
nd acts as it's in "home network"
  Starts communicating with CN
  If node moves, tell the CN via RO procedure that me, previously at home, =
now have a CoA that corresponds to my HoA
  Any new sessions should use the new network's address as "HoA", and if th=
e session to the CN ends, the RO should be torn down as well.

  My primary concerns with this basic idea are related to persistent sessio=
ns - some application connecting to the CN and keeping the same connection,=
 so the MN can never relinquish the HoA. This leads to the philosophical is=
sue about if you are a mobile node and using such "ad-hoc" HoAs that you ha=
ve picked up on the way, do you have the permission to make such address mo=
bile (take it out of the network)?

  In an environment with HA, the HA gives you explicit permission that yes,=
 you can use this address, from my network, owned by me, to communicate wit=
h rest of the world.
  Without HA, considering whatever network you happen to be in when first c=
ommunicating to a CN your "home network" - should the MN be allowed to move=
 the HoA away?
  For how long? Until DHCPv6 lease expires? Until RA timer expires? When?

Thanks for listing these 3 documents.

For what it's worth...

I think it would be good to decouple the security effort from the
HA-less part of the effort.

I would thus go further with the proposal to operate on a more general
level.  Do you have anything against a basic RO HA-less which is
security-less as well?

If against, then it would make sense to talk _Secure_ HA-less RO RR.

If for, then it would make sense to cite
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-petrescu-autoconf-ra-based-routing-00
and MNPP draft along the 3 documents you cited.

I think a basic RO HA-less which is independent of the security
mechanism could become a place for adding more security later.  For
example: add a widely deployed certificate-based https security which
secures a link layer (and not CGA, not Mobile IP RR tests).

I think that if one tries to further develop existing Mobile IP security
mechanisms (CGA, IKE, RR tests) then the goal should be
stated in the title, call the effort a security effort, and not simply
RO, nor simply RR.

For example: return routability tests (called RR in Mobile IP only)
exists in other protocols as well (TCP) yet they're not as highly secure
as in Mobile IPv6 (nonces, keys).  In this sense, in Mobile IP, RR is
actually a security effort.

RO of Mobile IP does not exist without RR, hence RO is also a security
effort.

However, it is possible to achieve optimal paths ("route optimization"),
without using security.  For example, most paths in the Internet are
highly optimal in terms of path length, yet very few of them are
established securely.

I think Mobile IP needs means to offer optimal paths CN-MH (move HA out
of the path). However, the effort of offering these paths is not
necessarily a security effort.

> =B7Handovers may fail when the link to the HA or the HA itself are

> not have a HA.
>
> =B7When the mobile starts a session outside of its home network, it
> must use a HoA pertaining to its home network even if it engages
> into R/O. This requirement adds air-interface overhead due to
> mobility headers and processing overhead on the mobile. This upfront
> cost incurs even if the mobile does not move during the session.
>
> =B7Signaling handshakes have to be conducted between mobile and HA at
> every mobility event.
>
> Currently, the Mobile IPv6 standard family forces the mobile to bear
> these disadvantages in R/O even if the HA functions are not needed.
> This specifically applies to scenarios where:
>
> =B7Traffic is based on mobile-initiated requests to public servers
> (majority of present mobile internet traffic). The HA's location
> service is not needed for such traffic. Location service may also be
> provided by other means such as Dynamic DNS or on application layer
> (e.g. SIP registrar).
>
> =B7The fallback path through the HA has little value when it shares
> the weakest link with the direct path. Since the weakest link is
> typically the wireless link, this situation applies to all scenarios
> where only one air interface is available (this is the typical case
> rather than the exception).
>
> =B7The mobile may know about the correspondent's Mobile-IPv6 support

>
> =B7The mobile applies the CGA-based procedure of RFC 4866, which makes

Here also is the way that operators/providers can make
a new business model for themselves:

http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-templin-iron-pm-00.txt

The customers get to use their same addresses even if
they use an access technology other than the native one
they get directly from the provider, and the provider
gets to market a managed service that customers will
recognize as a good value at reasonable rates.

Everybody wins, and mobility management with route
optimization over multi-access end user devices is
naturally supported.
