A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Mobility for IPv4 Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Mobile IPv4 Dynamic Home Agent Assignment
	Author(s)	: M. Kulkarni, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mip4-dynamic-assignment-03.txt
	Pages		: 22
	Date		: 2004-10-1
	
Mobile IP (RFC 3344) uses the Home Agent (HA) to anchor 
sessions of a roaming Mobile Node (MN). This draft proposes a 
messaging mechanism for dynamic home agent assignment and HA 
redirection. The goal is to provide a mechanism to assign an 
optimal HA for a Mobile IP session while allowing any suitable 
method for HA selection.

	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Mobility for IPv4 Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Mobile IPv4 Traversal Across IPsec-based VPN Gateways
	Author(s)	: S. Vaarala
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mip4-vpn-problem-solution-00.txt
	Pages		: 44
	Date		: 2004-10-4
	
This document outlines the proposed solution for the Mobile IPv4 and
   IPsec coexistence problem for enterprise users.  The solution
   consists of an applicability statement for using Mobile IPv4 and
   IPsec for session mobility in corporate remote access scenarios, and
   a required mechanism for detecting the trusted internal network
   securely.  The solution requires only changes to the mobile node;
   changes to Mobile IPv4 or IPsec are not required.

Hi there,

I am trying to find a conformance test suite for Mobile-IP-v4 agents. I
noticed that there is one called "basic Conformance tests for mobileip
agents" by Sun Microsystems, which had been presented at cthon2002. Any
information about this particular test suite or any other conformance
test suite will be appreciated.

Thanks,

-Yong

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Mobility for IPv4 Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Problem Statement: Mobile IPv4 Traversal of VPN Gateways
	Author(s)	: F. Adrangi, H. Levkowetz
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mip4-vpn-problem-statement-03.txt
	Pages		: 19
	Date		: 2004-10-6
	
Deploying Mobile-IP v4 in networks which are connected to the
Internet through a VPN (Virtual Private Network) gateway presents
some problems which do not currently have well-described solutions.
This document aims to describe and illustrate these problems, and
propose some guidelines for possible solutions.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-mip4-vpn-problem-statement-03.txt

To remove yourself from the I-D Announcement list, send a message to 
i-d-announce-request@ietf.org with the word unsubscribe in the body of the message.  
You can also visit https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/I-D-announce 
to change your subscription settings.


Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username
"anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in,
type "cd internet-drafts" and then
	"get draft-ietf-mip4-vpn-problem-statement-03.txt".

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html 
or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt


Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-mip4-vpn-problem-statement-03.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

Hi,

	IANA number assignment for the 4 messages described
in RFC-to-be draft-ietf-mip4-aaa-key has now been proposed.

As there are implementations of earlier versions of this
specification out in the wild, and as the numbering space
for subtypes was collapsed from 4 individual subtype spaces
to one common subtype space, we would like to verify that the
assignments make sense to all of you who have earlier
implementations.

Hello Kent,

Thanks for your suggestions in this e-mail from March 16.
I have created a new Internet Draft with the following
changes according to your comments.

My proposed text comes in two parts.  First, in section 4
just before the list of allowable status codes:

   Status codes allowable for use within the FA Error Extension are
   within the range 64-127.  The currently specified codes are as
   follows:

And, in the IANA considerations:

   The status codes which are allowable in the FA error extension are a
   subset of the status codes defined in the specification for Mobile
   IPv4 [2].  If, in the future, additional status codes are defined for
   Mobile IPv4, the definition for each new status code must indicate
   whether or not the new status code is allowable for use in the FA
   Error extension.

The implication of these sentences is that the specified codes
are the only ones valid today, and that new codes in the
future that are added need to be intentionally made available
for use in the new FA Error extension.


> 2) Should there be a MN Considerations section to specify that

Here is some proposed text for the new section:

5. Mobile Node Considerations
   
   If a mobile node receives a successful Registration Reply (status
   code 0 or 1), with a FA Error extension indicating that the foreign
   agent is not honoring Registration Reply, the mobile node SHOULD
   then send a deregistration message to the home agent.  In this way,  
   the home agent will not maintain a registration status that is
   inconsistent with the status maintained by the foreign agent.

>      Should the specifics of the
>      FA error code be conveyed to HA by MN? This would allow MN,
>      FA, and HA to log the same error condition.

This might be overkill.  The information is available,
and probably would be transferred out of band somehow.
I didn't think it was worth defining yet another
extension to the Registration Request to carry the
foreign agent's status code, but it could certainly
be done.

I believe these were the only open issues relevant to the
FA Error Extension Internet Draft.  If there are any others,
please let me know right away.  Or, if I need to write some
text to specify the abovementioned extension to the
Registration Request, I can give it a try.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Hello folks,

We've built and tested an alternative scheme for
fast handovers for Mobile IPv4.  It is adapted
from FMIPv6, and works well.

The document has been submitted as an individual
contribution, but we would like to see it adopted
as a working group document within the [mipv4]
working group if there is interest.

The -00 draft is available at:
   http://people.nokia.net/charliep/txt/fmipv4/fmipv4.txt

I'm not sure if there would be any interest on
the [mipshop] mailing list; if not, please excuse
the unnecessary distribution.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Charlie,

In the absence of any vendor interest in implementing this and operator
interest in deploying it, I think this draft belongs in MOBOPTS. I don't
believe the charter is restricted to IPv6.

Hello Jim,

I never heard of a rule that restricted discussion within a working
group to only those topics specified by ?operators? and ?vendors?
(Whatever happened to IETF being composed of individuals??)
Besides that, there's only been a few hours since I submitted my
e-mail to the working group.  I didn't expect to generate any
noticeable support in that amount of time...??

It might take a little bit longer.  People might be interested
to take a look, and decide for themselves whether further
action is at all warranted.

I submitted the e-mail to [mipshop], because the protocol
resembles a protocol of interest there.  I submitted the e-mail
to [mip4], because I thought there might be some interested
parties.  I agree that [mobopts] might be a good discussion
forum also, but I'm not used to sending out messages to so
many mailing lists at once.

Regards,
Charlie P.

MIPSHOP was formed to take a specific set of fast handover drafts to
experimental, then move them to MOBOPTS. The intent of forming MOBOPTS was
that future questions of handover optimization for Mobile IP would be
discussed there. The reason for doing this work in IRTF given at the time
MOBOPTS was formed was because there was no interest in the vendor and
operator community for deployment, because there were significant research
questions about the technology. To my knowledge, I haven't seen any evidence
that these questions have been answered to the extent that there's a
protocol ready for standardization. Therefore, I believe MIP4 and MIPSHOP is
the wrong venue for this draft.

Besides, I don't see anything in the MIP4 charter about experimental work of
this type. The charter is very explicit about being restricted to work that
is relevent to deployment, with the exception of the existing LLMIPv4. To
me, that means "vendor and operator interest", 'cause that is what drives
deployment. For this draft to be discussed in MIP4, a charter revision would
be required. For it to be discussed in MOBOPTS, similarly, the current
charter would need to be expanded to include new drafts beyond the specific
set explicitly listed in the charter, and I believe that would conflict with
the original goal of forming MOBOPTS.

Sorry to be so strict about this, but I've seen WGs get into trouble in the
past by defocusing, ignoring their charter, and engaging in research work.

Hi -

I have a basic concern regarding the use of HMAC_MD5 in 3012bis
(I have had a few email exchanges with authors and WG chairs in
this regards and am posting on WG chair suggestion)

3012bis defines GENAE (MN-AAA authenticator to be precise).
The MN-AAA authenticator (MAAE) aids in AAA authentication by
mapping the RRQ extensions to AAA attributes at FA or HA.

With CHAP_SPI (value  2), the RRQ extensions are mapped to
Radius chap attributes for chap authentication. The details are
as follows:

chap challenge = md5(RRQ data till the SPI field of MAAE)
chap challenge = authenticator field from MAAE

The authenticator calculation is specified in 3012bis and no issue
with that in regards to MD5.

This works and is widely deployed today.

As a summary, the chap challenge above aids to compress the message.

Now, when SPI in MAAE is HMAC_MD5, the draft mentions that the chap 
challenge above is calculated using HMAC_MD5 and that the authenticator 
is calculated using HMAC_MD5. I have a concern with both these claims:

1. Issue with chap challenge - for MHAC_MD6 to be used, a "key" is
required between MN and FA/HA. One basic assumption is that in some
domains/deployments this can be manually provisioned. One issue is how 
to decide on which :key: to use for challenge generation? No means to
specify that. (one applicability of this draft is to leverage on a 
single MN/AAA secret and so, I cannot clearly see the reason for such a 
provisoned key).

2. second and primary concern is that there are no radius attributes 
(standard /VSAs), which can be used to authenticate a challenge response
generated using HMAC_MD5. Basic radius CHAP uses plain MD5. In light of
that new attributes need to be defined and processing at Radius needs to 
be specified.

In light of these two issues, I am wondering how HMAC_MD5 can be 
realistically used for authenticating MAAE today?

Can someone demystify the usage of HMAC_MD5?

Thanks
Alpesh

Hi, Alpesh,

I tend to agree that the usage of HMAC_CHAP_SPI is a bit
under-specified.

The usage of the "inner" MD5 for CHAP_SPI is as a compression
function, to help solve the problem of limited space in RADIUS
attributes.

The problem is the text right now says:

   To compute the authenticator, apply MD5 [RFC1321] computed on the
   following data, in the order shown:

      High-order byte from Challenge || Key ||
      MD5(Preceding Mobile IP data ||
      Type, Subtype (if present), Length, SPI) ||
      Least-order 237 bytes from Challenge

   where the Type, Length, SPI, and possibly Subtype, are the fields of
   the authentication extension in use.  For instance, all four of these
   fields would be in use when SPI == (CHAP_SPI or HMAC_CHAP_SPI) is
   used with the Generalized Authentication extension.  The use of SPI
   number HMAC_CHAP_SPI indicates the use of HMAC_MD5 instead of MD5 in
   the above procedure. 

It seems to say that HMAC_MD5 replaces both the "inner" and "outer"
occurences of MD5, but fails to specify the Key used for the "inner"
HMAC_MD5.

Because the purpose of this "inner" hash is to provide compression,
not authentication, I think it is not reasonable to require a secret
pre-shared key between the MN and FA.

I think we have two realistic options at this point:

1) specify a fixed key for usage in the inner HMAC_MD5, or one that
   is derived from information in the RRQ;

2) revert back to MD5 for the inner hash for both CHAP_SPI and
   HMAC_CHAP_SPI, but keep HMAC_MD5 for the outer authentication function

Opinions?

As for your second problem (RADIUS AVPs) I think that is not a problem
that should be addressed with this document.  If people want to
support the HMAC_CHAP_SPI then they need to construct the RADIUS AVPs
to carry an indication of the fact that HMAC_CHAP_SPI is being used.
Also the home RADIUS server needs to be upgraded to support HMAC_MD5.
It is not in the scope of 3012bis or the mip4 WG to do RADIUS
extensions so I think we just have to understand that HMAC_CHAP_SPI
cannot be supported by existing standard RADIUS servers until
additional specification work has been done.

Pete -

regarding the first point, I have no strong preference. Either way is 
fine with me -
use MD5 or HMAC_MD5 for compression to derive the challenge
(don't see a benefit for the later from cryptographic point though).

Regarding the 2nd point, my point is that it is really not usable - 
unless the attributes
are available and there is some spec. which says how Radius should 
interpret it.

I think we are doing a forward reference here. Atleast the text should 
clearly state
this fact, IMO.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Mobility for IPv4 Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Foreign Agent Error Extension for Mobile IPv4
	Author(s)	: C. Perkins
	Filename	: draft-mip4-faerr-00.txt
	Pages		: 5
	Date		: 2004-10-19
	
This document specifies a new extension for use by Foreign Agents
   operating Mobile IP for IPv4.  The new extension option allows a
   foreign agent to supply an error code without disturbing the data
   supplied by the Home Agent within the Registration Reply message.
   In this way, the mobile node can verify that the Registration
   Reply message was generated by the Home Agent even in cases where
   the foreign agent is required by protocol to insert new status
   information into the Registration Reply message.

Hi 

RFC 3344 mentions that in a Registration Request both the 'M' and 'G' bits
can be set by the requesting Mobile Node 

Section 3.6.1.2
"The mobile node MAY request alternative forms of encapsulation by   setting
the 'M' bit and/or the 'G' bit "

We have the following queries regarding this case:

During Registration:
1. Does the Mobility Agent accept such a registration and maintain the
information in the binding entry / visitor entry as the case maybe ?

During Forwarding:
1. If the agent gets a IP in IP packet though the registration indicates a
Minimal IP/GRE , should the packet be processed by the Mobility agent

2.If the home agent receives a packet from the CN and the mobile node has
registered with both Minimal IP and GRE , what type of encapsulation should
be used to encapsulate the packet to be forwarded to the FA/MN.

Thanks in advance
Archana

Hello Pete,

After looking over the document, I think I'm pretty
much in line with your suggestions...

I agree that this should be fixed, and probably to say
that HMAC_MD5 only replaces the "enclosing" MD5, not the
inner MD5 as in option (2) below.

A key is going to be needed by the outer HMAC_MD5, though.

I'm in favor of (2).

I agree with this also.

I have some other concerns which I'll put into another e-mail.

Either fixed key or derivation of cleartext data seem to lose the security
potency of HMAC_MD5.



>2) revert back to MD5 for the inner hash for both CHAP_SPI and
>    HMAC_CHAP_SPI, but keep HMAC_MD5 for the outer authentication function

Is this scheme stronger than just using MD5? I think the key question is
how does not having a shared key affect the security strength? And is there
value to use this method of authentication given it's not the designed
HMAC_MD5 algorithm?


>Opinions?


Unless there's some worthwhile security gain using HMAC_MD5 in the
suggested adapted method above, *and* some standardized way to
even accomplish outer authentication function, wondering why should we
proceed with this method?

Maybe this is something we can add later when the details are worked
out?

The inner hash is not for authentication, it is for compression.  So,
I am not so worried about "security potency."  What you are saying is
that it might be somewhat easier for someone to find a different RRQ
that hashes to the same value; but, we still have the challenge value
as input to the outer HMAC_MD5, which is still secured with a key.

We probably don't have the expertise in this group to answer this
question.

I do not recall the input from the security review that led to the
addition of HMAC_MD5.  Did it ask for HMAC_MD5 to be added to both the
main default algorithm and the RADIUS SPIs, or just the main default
algorithm?  Does anyone have a pointer to the original input?

If there was no request from security folks to add HMAC_MD5 to the
RADIUS SPIs I would not mind deleting it.

I do not think there is a requirement to synchronize our draft with
RADIUS extensions.

This is certainly one possible way to resolve the issue.

Hi Pete,

Regarding your inquiry on the security review that led to the addition of
HMAC-MD5, the following was the issue brought up by AD for RFC3012bis
(mobile IP ver 3) document:

Issue: "Section 8 (SPI for RADIUS AAA Servers) defines a method of computing
the Generalized Mobile IP Authentication Extension's authenticator field
using MD5 in a manner that is consistent with RADIUS [9]. The use of MD5 in
the method described in Section 8 is less secure than HMAC-MD5 [6], and
should be avoided whenever possible."

Regards,
Jayshree

The inner hash is not for authentication, it is for compression.  So, I am
not so worried about "security potency."  What you are saying is that it
might be somewhat easier for someone to find a different RRQ that hashes to
the same value; but, we still have the challenge value as input to the outer
HMAC_MD5, which is still secured with a key.

We probably don't have the expertise in this group to answer this question.

I do not recall the input from the security review that led to the addition
of HMAC_MD5.  Did it ask for HMAC_MD5 to be added to both the main default
algorithm and the RADIUS SPIs, or just the main default algorithm?  Does
anyone have a pointer to the original input?

If there was no request from security folks to add HMAC_MD5 to the RADIUS
SPIs I would not mind deleting it.

I do not think there is a requirement to synchronize our draft with RADIUS
extensions.

This is certainly one possible way to resolve the issue.

Kent -

In general HMAC based auth. provide better security than just MD5.

Also, I agree with the group assessment that the inner algorithm can be
just MD5 as it is just compressing the message.

I would agree with Pete regarding point #2 and we can proceed from here.

Would really like to see text which mentions that nce AAA attributes which
use HMAC_MD5 are not defined today. That will help people avoid confusion.

Beyond that, I think there is no other reason that this draft should be 
delayed
any further.

Alpesh,

Can you suggest the exact text you like to see in RFC3012bis? 

Thanks,

Kent -

In general HMAC based auth. provide better security than just MD5.

Also, I agree with the group assessment that the inner algorithm can be just
MD5 as it is just compressing the message.

I would agree with Pete regarding point #2 and we can proceed from here.

Would really like to see text which mentions that nce AAA attributes which
use HMAC_MD5 are not defined today. That will help people avoid confusion.

Beyond that, I think there is no other reason that this draft should be 
delayed
any further.

Hello folks,

I am ready to submit a revised version of rfc334bis
today.  I have re-checked on the issue tracker for open
issues, and I think that in reality the only remaining
open issue is issue #45, which is misnamed but deals
with an unfortunate interaction between deregistration
and the Foreign-Home Authentication extension.

The part about fixing problems associated with NAT
was, I think, rejected at the last IETF meeting.
Fixing the deregistration problem was not, and
some action has to be taken.  My current intention
is to take the "least" action I can do to get the
draft published, consistent with existing discussion
on the issue.

I am not sure about issue #20.  My fuzzy non-recollection
is that it was rejected, but I cannot find documentation
about this in the minutes or on the list.  The issue
log shows agreement that a normative reference for
the Foreign Agent Error extension should be added to
rfc3344bis, except for the typical delay associated
with moving the extension specification to Draft
Standard.  If the extension cannot be progressed, then
we could not meet our goal of progressing rfc3344bis
to Draft Standard.  My understanding of Draft Standard
tells me that moving <faerr> to Draft could happen
only after significant deployment.

Regarding the other issues, and pursuant to the
discussion we had early in the year, I suggest
that they should already have been marked as closed
after the publication of version ...-00 of the
draft.

Perhaps discussion about this issue should be on
the agenda for just a few minutes during the
upcoming IETF.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Hello folks,

My last e-mail included some information about issue #45
that was not quite right.   After sending that e-mail out,
I began to review more e-mails about the subject, and found
a note requesting me to change the specification so that
the registration request would be dropped by the home agent
if there is an offending Foreign-Home Authentication
extension applied to a deregistration.

Unfortunately, I am not able to complete that task in
the limited time I have available today.  However, I
found another "minimal-text" solution to the problem, and
I would like to propose it for now, include it in the
release before next Monday, and make some discussion on
the list and at the next meeting.  Please accept my
sincere regrets at (a) not tackling the task of issue #45
sooner, avoiding what has become a rush job, and (b)
not having this idea sooner so that we could have
a longer discussion before submission.  I will make
whatever changes are needed after our discussion at
the upcoming IETF, immediately after it becomes
possible to resubmit the document.

The proposed solution is very simple: namely, that the
Foreign-Home Authentication extension be modified to
prohibit inclusion in a deregistration message, as follows:

3.5.4. Foreign-Home Authentication Extension
   
   This Extension MAY be included in Registration Requests and Replies  
   in cases in which a mobility security association exists between  
   the foreign agent and the home agent, as long as the Registration
   Request is not a deregistration (i.e., it is requesting a positive
   lifetime and the home address is different than the care-of address).
   The Foreign-Home Authentication extension MUST NOT be applied to
   deregistration messages.  ...


This makes sense, because the mobile node is clearly not using
the deregistration message to ask for any service from the foreign
agent.  Furthermore, there is no danger from _malicious_ activity
from the mobile node.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Hello again folks,

I should have mentioned in the last e-mail that
I have posted the Internet Draft at the
following URL:
   http://people.nokia.net/~charliep/txt/mobileip/rfc3344bis.txt

There are some other minor changes that were
needed between this draft and ...-00, but my last
note shows the important point of difference.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Hi Charlie,
            On the issue 45, we believe that the
solution for that problem can be based on a FA
Identity Extension and that can defined outside
the 3344bis. We can discuss this further at the
Washington IETF.

Regards !

Hello Sri,

The problem to be solved by having the identity extension
is not the same as the problem about what to do if the
mobile node authentication works fine, but the home agent
encounters an error within the Foreign-Home authentication
extension.  This is a relatively small sub-issue that should
have perhaps been separated out from issue #45.  It is only
this sub-issue that I was trying to solve by my proposed
restriction.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Jayshree,

Thanks very much.

This text doesn't seem to explicitly ask for the HMAC_MD5 method to be
added to Section 8.  Maybe it is just a statement about Section 8
compared to the new default method.  One way to go is to cut-and-paste
this text into the security considerations and delete the HMAC_MD5
RADIUS method from Section 8.

Opinions?

-Pete

Hi Pete,

I am fine with your suggestions. If we don't receive any further comments on
this topic by next Monday (Nov 1, 2004), I will update mip4-02 version to
remove hooks for HMAC-MD5 and add risk statement as a part of security
considerations. 

Thanks,
Jayshree

Jayshree,

Thanks very much.

This text doesn't seem to explicitly ask for the HMAC_MD5 method to be added
to Section 8.  Maybe it is just a statement about Section 8 compared to the
new default method.  One way to go is to cut-and-paste this text into the
security considerations and delete the HMAC_MD5 RADIUS method from Section
8.

Opinions?

-Pete

&gt;&nbsp; &gt; Radius chap attributes for chap&nbsp; &gt; =
authentication. The details are&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; as =
follows:&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; =
chap&nbsp; &gt; challenge =3D md5(RRQ data till the SPI field of =
MAAE)&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; chap challenge&nbsp; &gt; =3D =
authenticator field from MAAE&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; =
&gt;&nbsp; &gt; The authenticator&nbsp; &gt; calculation is specified =
in 3012bis and no issue&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; with that in&nbsp; =
&gt; regards to MD5.&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; =
&gt; This works and is widely deployed today.&nbsp; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; =
&gt;&nbsp; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; As a summary, the chap =
challenge above aids to compress the&nbsp; &gt; message.&nbsp; &gt; =
&gt;&nbsp; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; Now, when SPI in MAAE is =
HMAC_MD5, the draft&nbsp; &gt; mentions that the chap&nbsp; &gt; =
&gt;&nbsp; &gt; challenge above is calculated using HMAC_MD5&nbsp; &gt; =
and that the authenticator&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; is calculated =
using HMAC_MD5. I have a&nbsp; &gt; concern with both these =
claims:&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; 1. Issue =
with chap challenge&nbsp; &gt; - for MHAC_MD6 to be used, a =
&quot;key&quot; is&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; required between MN and =
FA/HA.&nbsp; &gt; One basic assumption is that in some&nbsp; &gt; =
&gt;&nbsp; &gt; domains/deployments this can be&nbsp; &gt; manually =
provisioned. One issue is how&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; to decide on =
which :key: to&nbsp; &gt; use for challenge generation? No means =
to&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; specify that. (one&nbsp; &gt; =
applicability of this draft is to leverage on a&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; =
&gt; single MN/AAA secret&nbsp; &gt; and so, I cannot clearly see the =
reason for such a&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; provisoned key).&nbsp; =
&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; 2. second and =
primary concern is that there are no radius&nbsp; &gt; attributes&nbsp; =
&gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; (standard /VSAs), which can be used to =
authenticate a&nbsp; &gt; challenge response&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; =
generated using HMAC_MD5. Basic radius CHAP uses&nbsp; &gt; plain MD5. =
In light of&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; that new attributes need to be =
defined and&nbsp; &gt; processing at Radius needs to&nbsp; &gt; =
&gt;&nbsp; &gt; be specified.&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; =
&gt;&nbsp; &gt; In light&nbsp; &gt; of these two issues, I am wondering =
how HMAC_MD5 can be&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; realistically =
used for authenticating MAAE today?&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt;&nbsp; =
&gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; Can&nbsp; &gt; someone demystify the usage of =
HMAC_MD5?&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; =
Thanks&nbsp; &gt; &gt;&nbsp; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; Alpesh&nbsp; &gt; =

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Mobility for IPv4 Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: IP Mobility Support for IPv4, revised
	Author(s)	: C. Perkins
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mip4-rfc3344bis-01.txt
	Pages		: 100
	Date		: 2004-10-25
	
This document specifies protocol enhancements that allow transparent
   routing of IP datagrams to mobile nodes in the Internet.  Each
   mobile node is always identified by its home address, regardless of
   its current point of attachment to the Internet.  While situated
   away from its home, a mobile node is also associated with a
   care-of address, which provides information about its current
   point of attachment to the Internet.  The protocol provides for
   registering the care-of address with a home agent.  The home agent
   sends datagrams destined for the mobile node through a tunnel to
   the care-of address.  After arriving at the end of the tunnel, each
   datagram is then delivered to the mobile node.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

Jayshree -

I am fine with Pete's comment. Do you still need any text from me now?

Folks,=20

Sorry for the cross posting, but this issue is being
discussed in all WG listed.=20

I submitted the following two drafts last night:
draft-tsirtsis-dsmip-problem
draft-soliman-v4v6-mipv6-

The first deals with the problem statement and the=20
second is one of the solution for using MIPv6 only.
There is another draft that proposes using MIPv4
only: draft-tsirtsis-v4v6-mipv4

I hope we can discuss the problem statement and scenarios=20
in the next meeting. While the problem statement is on the mip6
charter, it would be useful if we can have a slot allocated for=20
this in v6ops.=20

thx
Hesham

Alpesh,

I don't think I will be needing any text unless you like to have any
additional clarification. BTW, we already have suggested text in the
security considerations section of RFC3012bis draft.

Jayshree -

I am fine with Pete's comment. Do you still need any text from me now?

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; Either fixed key or =

HMAC_MD5.&nbsp; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp; &gt; The inner hash is not for =
authentication, it is for compression.&nbsp; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; So, I am&nbsp; &gt; not so worried about =
&quot;security potency.&quot;&nbsp; What you are </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; saying is that it&nbsp; &gt; might be somewhat =
easier for someone to find a </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; different RRQ that hashes to&nbsp; &gt; the =

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp; &gt;&nbsp; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp; &gt;&nbsp; &gt; Is this scheme stronger =
than just using MD5? I think the key</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; question is&nbsp; &gt; &gt; how does not having =
a shared key affect the security </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; strength? And is&nbsp; &gt; there&nbsp; &gt; =
value to use this method of </FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp; &gt; We probably don't have the expertise =
in this group to answer this</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp; &gt; I do not recall the input from the =
security review that led to the </FONT>

ask for HMAC_MD5 to be added to both </FONT>

  "I support the advancement of this document to the IESG with a
   request for publication as proposed standard."

and  i have the following comments abt the draft...

- Length field is mentioned as 4.
think it should be 2, excluding type/length fields as per rfc 3344 ?

- in the case of a MN using collocated CoA without R bit
set, can the MN ignore the FA error extn  (in case if some malicious 
node added this extn,)
 since this extn does not seem to relate to this scenario ?

also,  since this extension is unprotected, wondering if we should
mention abt the FA behavior when a (malicious) node between FA
and HA appends this extn to the RRP ? is the FA supposed to drop the
RRP considering it a parse error ? am not sure if this is a generic problem
 for all extns and has been  addressed elsewhere ?

thanks,
naveen.

Hi,

I've created a new mailing list to discuss Mobile IP transition 
issues.  There is no single good mailing list to do that, and 
crossposting to upto 4 WGs is not a good idea.

Address: miptrans@ops.ietf.org
To subscribe: 'subscribe miptrans' in the body to majordomo@psg.com
Web archives: http://ops.ietf.org/lists/miptrans/

**** DO NOT POST ANY FURTHER MESSAGES ON V6OPS LIST! ****
(if you respond, please remove the other lists from Cc:)

FWIW, I also noticed there is another related draft:

Use of MIPv6 in IPv4 and MIPv4 in IPv6 networks
draft-larsson-v6ops-mip-scenarios-00.txt
(Larsson, Gustafsson, Levkowetz)

As there have been various presentations on v6ops two times already, 
with no clear resolution, it would seem to be useful to have various 
people working on different documents bang their heads together on 
miptrans or offlist on which document(s) describing the problems and 
scenarios is the most appropriate as a basis for discussion.
