Hi, Gopal,

Maybe the Identification field can play this role, so we don't need to
do any new protocol specification.  Things could work this way: a
Registration Request that already has an IP home address does not get
allocated a new one.  Any Registration Request that is missing a home
address and has a unique Identification field does get allocated a new
address.  Retransmissions of the same Request with the same Identification
get the same address.

There could be some limit placed by the home agent on the number of IP
addresses that can be acquired by any given NAI; we may need to define
a new rejection code (number of IP addresses exceeded) if they are all
used up.

Maybe there are some pathological conditions involving lost Replies
that would cause addresses to be used up unnecessarily - for instance,
if a Reply is lost, the MN might retransmit a request with a new
Identification value and accidentally get a second address without
ever knowing about the first.  But the old address would time out
after the Lifetime expired anyway, so maybe it's not such a problem.

Thoughts?

-Pete

CALL FOR PAPERS


This workshop continues two threads of workshops in the WETICE series that
were held over the last four years. In general these workshops addressed
the question of how Web techniques can be used to achieve or to improve collaboration within or between organizations, and which coordination
mechanisms could be used in such an architecture.

A list of topics of interest includes (but is not limited to):

Collaborative Applications
     virtual organisations
     show case scenarios
     reports on hands-on experiences
Infrastructure and Technology
     coordination models and languages for the Web
     workflow languages
     languages and architectures for Web interoperability
     use of recent Internet and Web standards
     agent based approaches
     support for mobile users and software
Development of Collaborative Applications
     engineering methodologies for collaborative Web applications
     collaboration versus competition
     development methodologies, tools and platforms
     coordination patterns

Workshop Organization

Each paper will be reviewed by at least three reviewers. The workshop will
consist of 3 sessions presenting and discussing papers and a final working
session preparing the workshop report. 40% of the workshop's time will be
dedicated to discussion. Each paper presentation should provide answers
and/or considerations related to a list of main questions/topics that each
presenter will receive prior to the workshop.

Submission Details

Papers should contain original contributions not published or submitted
elsewhere, and references to related state-of-the-art work. Authors of
accepted papers are expected to present their views of the field at
the oral presentation.


Papers up to six pages (including figures, tables and references) can be
submitted. Papers should follow the IEEE format , which is single spaced,
two columns, 10 pt Times/Roman font. Papers should include a title, the name
and affiliation of each author, an abstract of up to 150 words and no more
than eight keywords. Authors are also required to provide contact addresses, if
different from the submitting electronic address.

This scenario also exhaust addresses unnecessarily.  The expiration

IMHO, I don't think using the Identification field is sufficient.

Re-registrations will presumably have valid Home Address fields in the
registration request.  New registrations will have 0.0.0.0.

You may be right.

KKL> IMHO, I don't think using the Identification field is sufficient.

Maybe so, but I don't think we should necessarily augment the NAI
extension itself - that would slow down too many other efforts.  Maybe
a new Session ID extension should be created.

Hi Pete,

I think the correct and clean way to allow any user to have multiple devices
is to have each device owned by a user to send a new extension during the
registration phase called a  Device Extension. This extension may be
attached to both registration request and reply. The home agent will use the
device id to allocate a mobile device an IP address when it is necessary.

    device parameters  this section defines the device parameters
                       which is requested by the mobile node. this
                       section MAY be modified by the home agent
                       or foreign agent to match the current operating
                       capability of the network and the services
                       which is allowed for the user. The structure
                       of this section depends on the type of the device.

   device id  It is the device identification.

I agree with this approach.

I think part of the problem is that address allocation has not been
sufficiently covered by any drafts.  The NAI draft does not explain
the meaning when NAI extension exist and home address is non-zero.
Does this always happen for re-registrations?   Re-registrations
may have zero home address field.

My interpretation is that the HA could use this ip address as a hint
for address allocation even for new registrations (similar to dial
environment).  But if address is used, then HA will return a new ip
address.  But some maybe the MN really wanted that address for some
reason.  In that case, MN should deregister that address after being
accepted.  Anyways, it's ambiguous on how HA deal with registrations
with NAI ext and non-zero Home Address.

I don't have problem with that.  Not all cases require further
NAI subidentification.

To: MOBILE-IP@STANDARDS.NORTELNETWORKS.COM
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hello,

There has been some discussion about how to let AAA authorize
a mobile node's connectivity separately from the process of
Mobile IP registration.  The idea would be to give a mobile
node a little unauthorized time while the AAA process
goes to completion.  It is expected that a Mobile IP registration
will be faster than authentication/authorization by AAA.

Suppose that the Mobile IP registration succeeds, and the AAA
authentication fails.  Then, one might expect that the Mobile IP
registration should be terminated immediately without waiting for
the registration lifetime to expire.  Mobile IP does not currently
have any mechanism to do this.  I think the mobile node has to
be notified that something went wrong.  Thus, we need a way to
send the notification to the mobile node.

This could be a new Mobile IP message, or ICMP, or ... ?
Any such message would have to be authenticated in some
way that is credible to the mobile node.

The alternative would be just to cut off service to the mobile
node without notification, which seems rather draconian.

Can anyone offer a good solution to enable this sort of
parallel processing for mobile node registrations?

Regards,
Charlie P.

Perhaps I am missing something, but I *really* don't see how the AAA
and Mobile-IP requests can be done in parallel. If a requirement is
that it must be possible to separate the two, then I would prefer to
see that both requests are done sequentially, first AAA then Mobile-IP.
This would remove many strange interactions, and would be a much cleaner
approach.

Hello,

I am finalizing a new draft for RFC2002bis.  I have taken
all the messages I can find from the mailing list, and the
discussion from the last IETF meeting as reflected in the
minutes as my recipe for making the revisions.

If anyone has additional comments, please send them in
as soon as possible.

There wasn't any more discussion.  The draft currently _suggests_ 7
seconds
as a default value, but it also suggests that any value may be
configured.
I inserted language that any such value SHOULD be chosen to be at least
3 seconds.

I'm happy to use alternative language if it is supplied.

I included language that foreign agents SHOULD support reverse
tunneling,
and home agents MUST support decapsulation of reverse tunnels.

I think the consensus was to recycle at Proposed.

Do I need to do anything here?

I agree that it would be a cleaner approach to do them sequentially.
Although doing them in parallel won't work without devising some new
mechanism, the idea of letting a mobile host to obtain connectivity
as soon as possible (potentially translating into faster handoff)
without having to wait for AAA (presumably takes longer) to complete
is worth some consideration.

So, in case we want to do them in parallel, there is another
possibility in addition to the two mentioned by Charlie. See below.

Another possibility would be for the mobile host to treat the
registration reply as temporary (with a certain timeout value),
indicated through an extension. Short of subsequent AAA
authorization messages, the mobile host must terminate the
registration at the end of the temporary usage period. The
advantage of this approach is that it does not introduce any
new messages.

KKL> I agree with this approach.

But what about a mobile device with two different interfaces of two
different technologies - wouldn't it be nice to be able to continue a
session from, say, CDMA to Ethernet?  I don't think we need to pin
down the device's link-layer address (maybe Mohamed's extension
doesn't quite do that, but it at least gives the specific technology.
This may preclude handoff from one technology to another).  A logical
session identifier seems more appropriate.  This could just be a
single (small) integer, and it should be independent of the
link-layer technology in use.

Perhaps whatever new extension is defined could clarify these issues.
My feeling is that if the MN gives an address, it expects to have that

Here RRQ and RRP will be the Mobile IP Registration Request and Reply Messages.
The data tunneling will be between FA and HA.

For repeat registration caused by lifetime expiration, the registration can
optionally go directly from FA to HA.

as soon as possible (potentially translating into faster handoff)
without having to wait for AAA (presumably takes longer) to complete
is worth some consideration.

So, in case we want to do them in parallel, there is another
possibility in addition to the two mentioned by Charlie. See below.

Another possibility would be for the mobile host to treat the
registration reply as temporary (with a certain timeout value),
indicated through an extension. Short of subsequent AAA
authorization messages, the mobile host must terminate the
registration at the end of the temporary usage period. The
advantage of this approach is that it does not introduce any
new messages.

I agreed with the general approach of having a sub-NAI extension.
Actually, I was thinking along the line that the extension would
just contain Type-Length-Value where Value is defined by
NAI's username grammar (in RFC 2486).  This provides some
flexibility.

Yes, it needs clarification.  A node that doesn't do dynamic address
assignment can still deal with the reply properly.  But the scheme
allows for nodes to say "I prefer this address, but give me any if
that's not available" as well.  Since the sub-NAI extension deals
with address allocation, the draft should clarify
ambiguities that will cause interoperability.

        [MK>]  The device id is actually an id which is offered by the ISP
when the user obtained the service. It could be something like
mci-phone-214-78-9898
        or it could be an integer #. The User NAI and the device id will be
used by the mobile agent to uniquely identify the device. The device could
support multiple technologies but it is still have one device id. If the
user's device needs to re-register because it has changed technology, it
should use the same device id in the registration request. if the device has
already assigned an IP by the home subnetwork, it will not be reassigned
another IP because it has changed technology. I did not understand how this
proposal will preclude handoff from one technology to another technology.

Hi, Mohamed,

I must have misunderstood your intention, then.  Your extension had
these two fields:

    Sub-Type             1   ETHERNET_DEV.
                         2   TDMA_DEV.
                         3   CDMA_DEV.

    device parameters  this section defines the device parameters
                       which is requested by the mobile node. this
                       section MAY be modified by the home agent
                       or foreign agent to match the current operating
                       capability of the network and the services
                       which is allowed for the user. The structure
                       of this section depends on the type of the device.

   device id  It is the device identification.
              example MCI-LAPTOP-193.193.193.20


Since the Sub-Type gave the specific link-layer technology, I was
assuming that device parameters contained a link-layer address and
that this was used to distinguish sessions.  I can see now that you
didn't actually say that.

Still, this extension seems overly complicated to me.  For one thing,
the HA needs to know the semantics of each Sub-Type to properly find
the device id (since device parameters is variable length).  I just
don't think it's necessary to give any information about the
link-layer interface to solve the multiple-sessions-per-NAI problem.
All we need is one integer called a "session id".  If you want to send
link-layer interface information, that could be accomplished with a
separate extension (note that there may be more than one session id
per interface!  That's another reason not to couple these two things
together in one extension).

    I don't think I'd be in favor of parallel AAA and MIP authentications where
the MN is allowed some short access time.  I am assuming you mean only the first
registration with a FA would be allowed for a short time, otherwise the MN will
simply 'renew' every second to stay within that window.  If a good parallel
mechanism came forward I might be in favor of that, but not where the MN has
some free time (figuratively, and literally).  I see this as allowing a short
security violation on the grounds that it may not really be a security
violation.

    A mechanism to allow the registration reply to have a short timeout,
requireing the MN to be 'honorable' and stop trying to use it's binding is
silly, since the FA is the enforcement point.  I agree the FA killing the
service without letting the MN node is draconian, so there needs to be a way for
the MN to know its been cut off.  The FA could simply send a registration reply
with a denial, though this breaks RFC2002[-bis] in that an FA isn't allowed to
generate a registration reply that is not in response to a request (though I
suppose you could argue it's simply the second response to a request).
Personally, I've always thought there should be a way to terminate a binding in
MIP, independant of what AAA may need it for.

                              Cheers,

I second this concern for security. Note that in the PPP world, which is
really not all that different from what we are talking about here, I have
I *never* heard of a PPP server granting temporary access while waiting for
the AAA server to respond.

If no authentication is required, then simply do not use AAA.

Again, sequential is the correct behavior.

Steve,

Actually, I agree that relying on a well-behaving mobile node is not
sufficient. The idea was just to use the absence of AAA authorization
messages before the timeout to implicitly signal the mobile node that
something may have gone wrong. It's just that instead of requiring a
mobile node to be prepared to process explicit negative notifications,
it requires the mobile node to be prepared for failure by itself in
the absence of positive notifications. The FA should still enforce
the cut-off of traffic to a mobile node when it fails AAA authorization.

This implicit signaling avoids new packets that have to be sent and
processed. But it can potentially take longer for a mobile to notice
the failure as compared to explicit notification. Though it has both
pros and cons, in my opinion it is an alternative nonetheless.

A mechanism to explicitly terminate a binding can potentially be useful
in the scenario when an FA needs to be turned down and allow another FA
in the same subnet to take over. Waiting for the mobile node to figure
this out by its own through the loss of FA "beacons" can take too long.
Is this what is in your mind for such a mechanism?

Pat,

I don't agree with you here: with MIP there could be the need of a fast
hand-off to a new domain. That need is probably not (yet) so urgent in the
PPP world.

While I agree that there are some security concerns, I think there is the
need to design a AAA/MIP interaction scheme that guarantees fast hand-offs.

I suppose there is a requirement that AAA and MIP messages can be separated
(be it parallell or serial message sending). When you pay for access with
your credit card the authorization/accounting goes to the credit card
company's AAA server, while the Mobile IP messages go to your home agent.

The sequential approach is extremely useful if the only case of using AAA
with MIP is to ensure that the provider of the foreign agent is able to
account for every second of foreign agent usage. However, the provider could
also be interested in allowing a short grace period to ensure that the
real-time applications used in the mobile node would experience the shortest
possible service disruption. I suppose the AAA processing will take at least
a couple of seconds and even longer when there are several brokers between
the visited and home domains. The grace period enables of course a
possibility of fraud, which the provider has to take into account.
Minimizing fraud could be done for example by allowing the grace period only
to those who have visited the same provider's network earlier and have been
given a session key, as described in the "Minimal Latency Secure Hand-off"
draft. There is also a third possibility when the provider is providing free
access for everyone without any accounting but with authorization. The
provider wants to be sure that the home AAA domain authorizes the mobile
node, i.e. it is not stolen, in the (for some reason) wrong domain, etc.

        Patrik

Hi,

The discussion upto now basically brings up two conflicting requirements.

When the user is registering for the first time with a FA, AAA authentication/authorization should it seems be done before MIP registration. (This could also be done by embedding the MIP msgs inside the AAA msg as suggested earlier, but this would also result in a sequential check - presumably if the AAA authentication/authorization fails, the MIP registration is never carried out.)

Another requirement seems to be the wish for allowing previously connected registered users a fast registration method when registering with a new FA near the old FA. i.e minimization of service disruption. This requirement becoming more severe when Real-Time services are used in the future. 

Allowing grace periods seems fraught with problems of fraud etc. As suggested by Patrik in the e-mail below some sort of localized caching behaviour (my generic term for the use of session_id as envisioned below) may help solve this problem. Another may be to enable the AAAs to not only act as proxies, but also exhibit a caching behaviour so as to allow previously connected users to get quicket authentication/authorization. (I am not sure if this is in the AAA requirements document generated by this group.)

Note that there has also been a fair amount of discussion within this group regarding methods for "speeding up" MIP registration or carrying out faster handoffs for the same reasons as above. C. Perkins "Regionalized Tunnel Management" being one example. ("Cellular IP" also being another, though relying on slightly different methods.)

As Charles has previously said, there may or may not be a need for such methods. Correct setting of parameters etc. may be enough. (Correct me if I am incorrect in my understanding or recollection of Charles' comments. I think they were in reply to a thread on Cellular IP ..) But if we must develop a solution, one based on localized caching methods seems to be the simplest way out. Maybe not optimal, but one that is fairly robust. Optimality would have to be provided by correct dimensioning, capacity allocation, placement of caches etc. by the operators - a good way for such operators to differentiate themselves from other service providers. 

Comments ?

Hi everyone.

There have been recently a lot of discussions on this mailing list about
how to make MIP suitable for 3G networks. As most people on this list
will know, one of the driving forces behind the standardisation of 3G is
3GPP (I'm a European, so I want talk here about 3GPP 2). Looking at the
discussions in 3GPP and the MIP WG of the IETF, it seems to me that both
groups are taking different approaches to solve the same problem, and I
would like to get some opinions from list members why the IETF model
could be better/worse than the 3GPP model.

Essentially, the difference I see in the discussions is that the MIP WG
assumes in many cases base stations to be IP addressable devices. In
other words, the "IP cloud" reaches all the way to the utmost edge of
the wireless network. In 3GPP however, the access network is considered
(as far as I understand) to be a separate entity. Currently, it seems
that the UTRAN is based on ATM transport, IP could be used as an option
(correct me if I'm wrong). The higher-layer signalling protocols used in
the access network for R'99 are very much SS7 oriented (using things
like RANAP, the Radio Access Network Application Part). In this
architecture, it seems to me that IP is not "all-embracing", and is
restricted more to the core network...

Here is now my question: which advantage is there to have IP totally
completely utterly all-embracing in the wireless network as opposed to
have it deployed only in the core network? My first guess is that there
might be advantages in the area of network management (but I'm not an NM
expert, therefore, I'd like to get comments from more knowledgeable
people in this area). I think that arguments such as "the IETF approach
is more elegant" is not valid, since, by the end of the day, we also
have to think about business...

Anyway, this was my question, and as usual, comments are most welcome...

Simon Binar

Hello Charlie and others,

First of all, I think it is of importance that the procedures of authentication and authorization are something being specified by the AAA group as part of their charter. AAA may come up with different solutions for different technologies, e.g. one for MIP and another one for PPP (if they can be separated), or perhaps AAA defines something self-contained in which case the interoperation with other protocols should be defined.

Just out from semantics, the AAA process is something different from MIP registration and should thus not be intermixed (actually the AAA process might result in that the MIP service is available to the user?).

Do we know anything about what the AAA guys think about this?

Cheers,
   /Martin

Hello,

There has been some discussion about how to let AAA authorize
a mobile node's connectivity separately from the process of
Mobile IP registration.  The idea would be to give a mobile
node a little unauthorized time while the AAA process
goes to completion.  It is expected that a Mobile IP registration
will be faster than authentication/authorization by AAA.

Suppose that the Mobile IP registration succeeds, and the AAA
authentication fails.  Then, one might expect that the Mobile IP
registration should be terminated immediately without waiting for
the registration lifetime to expire.  Mobile IP does not currently
have any mechanism to do this.  I think the mobile node has to
be notified that something went wrong.  Thus, we need a way to
send the notification to the mobile node.

This could be a new Mobile IP message, or ICMP, or ... ?
Any such message would have to be authenticated in some
way that is credible to the mobile node.

The alternative would be just to cut off service to the mobile
node without notification, which seems rather draconian.

Can anyone offer a good solution to enable this sort of
parallel processing for mobile node registrations?

Regards,
Charlie P.

        [MK>]  I think we are in agreement that the device id is something
which should identify uniquely the device. I think to make the definition
for device id more general we should allow the device id to be an integer or
a string like the NAI. This device id could be for example the  phone number
for the device 972-678-9929. This could be represented as an integer or
could be represented as a string which encode some more information about
the device such as mci-cdma-972-678-9929.

        [MK>] Regarding the device parameter field I had in mind that this
field will contain some parameters which are necessary to establish data
channels between the mobile device (which might support multiple
technologies) and the foreign subnetworks. I assumed that could be used in
the future when we send the control signals such as registration request
over a separate control channels and then we establish a data channel
according to the parameters defined in the device parameter section. I think
I was too futuristic when I have taken this assumption and sorry for the
confusion this assumption caused.

This is not only a problem of a parallell execution of both AAA and MIP, it
seems to be more general than that. What if some AAA event occurs which
forces the mobility binding to be terminated at the foreign agent ?

It seems rather draconian just to cut off service since the mobile node may
still hear the agent advertisements from the foreign agent and do nothing
since it isn't aware of the termination. Is there any chance of defining a
new Mobile IP message or to send a new binding reply denying the
registration ?

I think whether to allow free time or not is ultimately a policy issue.
Seems to me that we shouldn't devise a mechanism that precludes that
policy.  A visited network that makes this policy decision (to support
fast handoffs, or for whatever reason) can easily use its own local
mechanisms to detect and prevent attacks like the above -- it is not
necessary to standardize them.

As we pointed out earlier, there can be other reasons for not bundling the
AAA and MIP signalling: e.g., AAA and MIP home domains could be completely
different and far apart.

I too agree that there are other scenarios where a visited network may
want to unilaterally terminate service: e.g., in the pre-paid access model
when the pre-paid amount is used up. So it would be nice to have a clean
way to inform MN when its registration is being revoked.

The ISDN world comes to mind when I read this. If you recall, people figured
out how to send messages in-band in the D channel, and this was enough for
them to get the message across. The result, no need to actually establish a
call, just initiate a call and send the message in the request.

This seems very similar. An MS could get connected with a bogus user-name and
get access long enough to send an instant message to his/her home network.
No fee necessary. I would be quite interested in hearing from the carriers
on whether this is acceptable or not.

In the case of the Minimal Latency Security Handoff scheme, a visit to the
AAA wouldn't even be necessary since the keying information is provided. This
draft allows the MS to maintain the session keys for the FA, and the keys have
an explicit life-time. So, if the MS calls within the expiration period, no
visit to the AAA is necessary.

There is also a third possibility when the provider is providing free

This is done in the PPP world. No authentication, but accounting messages
are maintained. Therefore, the AAA is never reached when access is requested.

>Xinhua,

    So - no news is bad news?  If the MN doesn't hear it's OK to continue within
X seconds of getting the [first] registration reply, it MUST assume it's not OK
to continue.  What if that reply is delayed (we don't know how long they're
"supposed to take", but the rule is likely to be 2x or 3x that long for the
timeout), or what if the reply is lost [UDP], or the [TCP] reply needs to be
retransmitted (which may mean renegotiated)?  The MN will have to assume it's
dead, but it wont know why, so it wont know how to correct the action.

    I see the need for different MIP and AAA path processing, but I don't think
the MN should get an answer until it gets one it can live with for the duration
of the registration lifetime.  In this event, that means the FA passes the
regreq [inside a AAA packet] to the Foreign AAA server, then that server passes
AAA messages to the credit card company while the mip packets [still inside AAA
packets] go to the home domain (to set up FA/MN keys, etc).  The foreign AAA
server waits until all AAA replies are received, then merges them into one
response to the FA which relays it to the MN (or it can likely wait until the
first 'no' comes back).

    Sure, though this case could be solved by 'resetting' the FA so it sends one
becon with the busy bit set.   That broadcasts to all MNs that it's been reset,
but isn't servicing any more bindings.  It would be useful, however, if an HA
was going down...

It seems that Cellular IP has limitation for Private Network Access. During
private network access,
conflicted Mobile Node IP addresses may be assigned which will cause the failure
 of IP packet forwarding.
Tunneling Based Protocol for MicroMobility Management will not have the issue
since MN IP packets are wrapped.

Any comments?

Hello,

I am forwarding some comments from Alper Yegin to the list for
further clarification.  I'll put in my $.02, but in every case
I do not have any strong opinion one way or the other.

This seems like a perpetual unsolved design issue.  Some people
say that having the source port variable enables better multi-threaded
design.  Some say not.  I'll change it if people say to change it,
but I don't think it should be changed unless there is more support.

I agree it's not clear.  I can add text that clarifies it.
One possibility would be to let the foreign agent accept such
packets, and to let action by the mobile node and home agent be
defined by whatever is in the Mobility Security Association between
them.

I don't know what this means. I do know from personal observation how
Sprint PCS's wireless web service is set up, though. PPP gives you an
address on network 10, and routes you through a bidirectional NAT in
Kansas City. I.e., the NAT assigns you a routable address and
translates between that and your network 10 address without any port
translation.

This forces you to run Mobile IP with tunneling in both directions if
you want to give your mobile computer a predictable routable address.

Is this what you had in mind?

As a wireless carrier interested in deploying a MIP solution I don't feel
comfortable allowing a "grace" period.  We have received many request for
potential customers on how quickly they could send a "short burst" of data
through our network for particular applications (i.e. telemetry and
telematics are two big ones).  If we allow users a grace period they could
potentially run their business without getting properly authorized.  While
there are possibly other ways to block this usage AAA is the best solution.

                I suppose there is a requirement that AAA and MIP messages
can be separated
                (be it parallell or serial message sending). When you pay

                your credit card the authorization/accounting goes to the
credit card
                company's AAA server, while the Mobile IP messages go to
your home agent.

                The sequential approach is extremely useful if the only case
of using AAA
                with MIP is to ensure that the provider of the foreign agent
is able to
                account for every second of foreign agent usage. However,
the provider could
                also be interested in allowing a short grace period to
ensure that the
                real-time applications used in the mobile node would
experience the shortest
                possible service disruption. I suppose the AAA processing
will take at least
                a couple of seconds and even longer when there are several
brokers between
                the visited and home domains. The grace period enables of
course a
                possibility of fraud, which the provider has to take into
account.
                Minimizing fraud could be done for example by allowing the
grace period only
                to those who have visited the same provider's network
earlier and have been
                given a session key, as described in the "Minimal Latency
Secure Hand-off"
                draft. There is also a third possibility when the provider
is providing free
                access for everyone without any accounting but with
authorization. The
                provider wants to be sure that the home AAA domain
authorizes the mobile
                node, i.e. it is not stolen, in the (for some reason) wrong
domain, etc.

                Regards,

Why is this an issue for you? In a properly layered network, Mobile IP
would be outside the scope of the wireless carrier. It would exist as
a co-located FA on the mobile user's computer and as a HA on the
user's home network, e.g., at his residence or business. That's if it
even existed at all, since MIP would be a user choice, and most mobile
users given the choice wouldn't need it in the first place.

You would just charge for the user's generic internet access service,
and the behavior of MIP (or even its existence) wouldn't matter to
you.  It would all just be billable user data to you.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IP Routing for Wireless/Mobile Hosts Working Group of the IETF.

        Title           : Mobile IP Extensions Rationalization (MIER)

        Date            : 05-Jan-00

It is in the interest of the Mobile IP WG to conserve the
usage of the type field since we see many drafts proposing
new extensions for Mobile IP. Therefore there is a real
need to find ways to limit the usage of the type field in the
extensions structure. MIER describes a new extension
structure to Mobile IP to make the extensions far more
extensible.

AAA servers are in use within the Internet today to provide
authentication and authorization services for dial-up computers.
Such services are likely to be equally valuable for mobile nodes
using Mobile IP when the nodes are attempting to connect to foreign
domains with AAA servers.  AAA servers today identify clients by
using the Network Access Identifier (NAI). Our proposal defines a way
for the mobile node to identify itself, by including the NAI along
with the Mobile IP Registration Request.  This draft also updates
RFC2290 which specifies the Mobile-IPv4 Configuration option for
IPCP, by allowing the Mobile Node's Home Address field of this option
to be zero.

This is something that we have discussed within TR-45.6 and have concluded
(at least the carriers have) that this it is not an acceptable design to
return a successful RR to the MS until both the AAA and MIP registrations
have completed successfully.  The fraud risks and state complexities are too
much for a fee based system.  It would appear that tightly tying the AAA and
MIP registration message flows together provides the cleanest solution in
this case.

Phil,
Sprint network does not have Cellular IP. In Cellular IP draft, no PPP is used.
Between GW and BS, Mobile Host IP addresses are used for packet routing.
Cellular IP nodes maintain Route Cache.

The problem occurs when two Mobile Hosts accessing different private networks
get assigned the same IP address at WAN level. In this case, Cellular IP node
will have problem for IP packet routing based on Mobile Host IP address.

I don't know what this means. I do know from personal observation how
Sprint PCS's wireless web service is set up, though. PPP gives you an
address on network 10, and routes you through a bidirectional NAT in
Kansas City. I.e., the NAT assigns you a routable address and
translates between that and your network 10 address without any port
translation.

This forces you to run Mobile IP with tunneling in both directions if
you want to give your mobile computer a predictable routable address.

Is this what you had in mind?

When two mobile hosts with private home addresses move into the same
network, possibly encapsulation is the only plausible way to prevent an
address clash. Tunneling can also be used in a Cellular IP network for
hosts that have private addresses. One advantage of Cellular IP is that
you have to use encapsulation only in such cases.

When you talk about "Tunneling Based Protocol for MicroMobility
Management" do you refer to a specific protocol or just tunneling based
approaches in general?

Encapsulation may not be a disadvantage  if it does not across air link.

I meant tunneling based approaches in general.
Can you point out how this is done and where it is described in "Cellular IP
draft"?

It seems to me that a unified approach for handling both public and private
network access is prefered.

    As I recall, from various places in the document, it says a couple of
related things; it's a loop-hole in the spec.  Sorry, I don't have the time to
reference them right now, but thanks for asking, as I meant to send this off to
Charlie a long time ago.

    According to 2002:

    If the FA rejects the registration request, it MUST NOT send a reply to the
MN more often than 1/s.

    Nothing is said in the case of the FA accepting the registration request; it
can simply forward it to the HA.  Nothing is said about how often it can do
this.  The implication, and I feel the spirit of 2002, though, is the FA should
reject any registrtaion request that is generated by a MN more often than 1/s.

    Nothing is said about the HA generating more than 1 reply/s.  This should be
allowed because a MN may be registering simultaneous bindings, or the FA could
have reset itself.

    The FA can then forward the HA's reply, of which there can be more than 1/s.

    I'm hoping this is resolved in 2002-bis, since a malicious node can pretend
to be a MN and flood two networks this way using FAs that behave to spec.  To
answer your question, though, I would say a responsible FA should should ignore
a second registration request appearing from the same MN within 1 second.

    Analogously, a HA that supports simultaneous bindings should be able to
ignore registration requests from the same MN through the same FA that arrive
more often than 1/second (network timing issues aside).  A HA that does not
support simultaneous bindings should be able to ignore registration requests
from the same MN regardless of FA that arrive more often the 1/second.

                              Cheers,
                                  Steve

It is not included in this version of Cellular IP.

I do not think that the tunneling of packets containing private
addresses breaks the "uniform approach" of Cellular IP. Besides, public
and private addresses are handled differently in fixed networks as well.

Simon, these are my thoughts...

Bringing IP addresses out to the base station has the advantage
of making the network far more flexible.

Although currently cellular networks are large proprietary networks,
they may not be in the future.

In the future as base station density increases and access to IP
networks becomes more predominant, it may be cheaper for a Telco
to connect additional base stations to an existing IP network
with a SLA rather than run another leased line to the base station.
In order for this to be practical,  base stations need to be
IP addressable.

From another perspective, operators may wish to connect small
clusters of base stations directly
to the internet.  For example a company may wish to connect a single
private cell to the internet to enable network access within a building
without incurring expensive Telco charges.  If the base station is IP
addressable this can be done without having to construct a core
network.

Hope this helps,

Regards,

Karl,

Don't want to spend a lot of time discussing this, I do agree that
co-located FA is one implementation that will work.  But only supporting a
single implementation is short-sighted from a service providers perspective.
It is also an issue for the carrier that wants to be more then a simple
"pipe" to transport data over.  I do agree that you are entitled to your
thoughts and opinions on what a carrier needs to offer, but as a carrier
that is listening to many potential data customers we need to larger view.

Regards

                Why is this an issue for you? In a properly layered network,
Mobile IP
                would be outside the scope of the wireless carrier. It would
exist as
                a co-located FA on the mobile user's computer and as a HA on
the
                user's home network, e.g., at his residence or business.
That's if it
                even existed at all, since MIP would be a user choice, and
most mobile
                users given the choice wouldn't need it in the first place.

                You would just charge for the user's generic internet access
service,
                and the behavior of MIP (or even its existence) wouldn't
matter to
                you.  It would all just be billable user data to you.

Network Access

                Phil,
                Sprint network does not have Cellular IP. In Cellular IP
draft, no PPP is used.
                Between GW and BS, Mobile Host IP addresses are used for
packet routing.
                Cellular IP nodes maintain Route Cache.

                The problem occurs when two Mobile Hosts accessing different
private networks
                get assigned the same IP address at WAN level. In this case,
Cellular IP node
                will have problem for IP packet routing based on Mobile Host
IP address.

                --Yingchun.

                I don't know what this means. I do know from personal
observation how
                Sprint PCS's wireless web service is set up, though. PPP
gives you an
                address on network 10, and routes you through a
bidirectional NAT in
                Kansas City. I.e., the NAT assigns you a routable address
and
                translates between that and your network 10 address without
any port
                translation.

                This forces you to run Mobile IP with tunneling in both
directions if
                you want to give your mobile computer a predictable routable
address.

                Is this what you had in mind?

The charter of the AAA WG is to define requirements for a AAA protocol based
on inputs from the WGs that would use that protocol. It is explicitly *not*
in the AAA WG charter to define how Mobile IP will use AAA. That is the job
of the Mobile IP WG, which is best qualified for that task. Among other
things, this ensures that issues of Mobile IP architecture are discussed
within the WG that best understands Mobile IP.

My description of Sprint PCS's packet data service was based totally
on my personal observations using my personally-owned phone, a data
cable and a laptop running Linux. ANY Sprint PCS user who knows how to
use standard Linux/UNIX networking tools such as pppd, netstat and
traceroute can easily discern the very same information in a few
minutes. It can hardly be considered proprietary.

If my description is no longer accurate, I would appreciate any
corrections you might make. I stopped using the service when my first
bill gave me sticker shock.

Ah, here we reach the crux of the issue. Speaking as a potential user
of your service, an IP "pipe" is all I want from you, and it's all I'm
willing to pay for.

And it's not just me. I know I speak for many prospective users (the
ones who understand the issues, anyway) and for those who conceived
the Internet architecture. Go read the classic paper by Saltzer, Reed
& Clark, "End-to-End Arguments in System Design"
(http://people.qualcomm.com/karn/library.html).

This one paper is so fundamental that I've often thought prospective
IETFers (especially those affiliated with telcos) should be required
to read it and pass a test before they can participate in any IETF
working group. :-)

Unfortunately, many carriers (not just Sprint) see no glamor in being
pipe providers, even though they can make plenty of money if they do
it well and at reasonable cost. It's a widespread problem that also
afflicts cable modem networks, for example. Fortunately, my own cable
modem provider is proving themselves so incompetent at operating all
these superfluous network functions that they're being forced to
eliminate them just to keep the packets flowing.

How can/why should two mobile hosts get assigned the same IP address?
We have no trouble avoiding that in wired networks, why should
wireless be any different?

Or are you referring to NON-global IP addresses (eg., on network 10)
belonging to distinct private networks that multiple mobile users on
the same cellular FA may wish to use at the same time?

If so, this is a totally artificial problem created by the cellular
carrier's pointless insistence on implementing its own MIP FA.  If you
strip all vestiges of MIP out of the carrier, put a co-located FA in
the mobile hosts, and have the carrier simply provide a unique,
possibly temporary, globally routable IP address to each mobile user
for the duration of his session, the problem disappears. Each mobile
user's FA peers with his own HA, and each FA/HA association can
encapsulate packets with non-global IP addresses belonging to his home
network without any conflict with anyone else doing the same.

Once again, we see that co-locating the FA at the mobile host is the
*only* MIP configuration that makes any technical or operational
sense.  But I suppose I'll be told (and not for the first time) that
it doesn't make "marketing" sense from the carrier's perspective.

Over-the-air encapsulation overhead is a red herring, for several
reasons. First, there are more efficient ways to encapsulate than
sending two complete IP headers. Second, even if you do send two full
IP headers, VJ header compression can be easily extended to work on
them. Third and most important, encapsulated MIP traffic will be a
tiny (if not zero) fraction of most mobile packet data users' traffic
for a very simple reason: the vast majority of mobile users run
clients, not servers. Those clients can initiate their transactions
with whatever temporary IP address is assigned by the carrier. Because
most network transactions are apt to be very short compared to the
rate at which addresses change due to inter-cellular-system mobility,
an address change during a transaction will be a rare event, and if it
happens it can easily be repeated. I.e., MIP solves a problem they
just don't have, and it imposes some substantial costs in the process
(e.g., routing that can be wildly suboptimum).

Virtually every dialup ISP already uses PPP dynamic address
assignment. I don't know of any that provide MIP FAs. Why is cellular
any different?

You absolutly right and this is solved in mobile ipv6!!! in default...
So I suppose you argue for IPv6 then??

Thats because they are running there systems on IPv4 and dont have enough
addresses so they have to use private addresses and "share a smaller pool of
global addresses" when they access the Internet.. This of course is a bad
design and put several security restrictions on your network.

This is not true...!! The mobility signalling is very heavy, especially how
it is designed in today's mobileip... There are though efforts that try to
solve this problem and try to scale up the micro mobility signalling (paging
support/location management etc...).

Imagine that you are a wireless carrier and you probably have a couple of
hundred of thousands of users that are in an area and perhaps a hundred
active ones....
Then you can imagine that the signalling load is quite big...

It provides mobility....:-)

You cant roam between two operators using PPP....

Yes it does because you snoop on the addresses.... And it is very hard if
you tunnel packets, because the inner packet is encrypted, how do you get
that info?
It will be very hard for Cellular IP to obtain security...I have also
pointed out that several times before and I agree with Yingchun Xu that this
is a problem...

[SB] I don't quite understand the relation to leased lines. In OSI
parlance, leased lines are layer 1, whereas IP is layer 3. Even if base
stations are directly connected to the Internet, IP packets needs to be
carried over some form of physical media. Leased lines (e.g., microwave
links) could be one such form of transport.

I have also heard the argument of easier configurability. Would this
mean that base stations would implement a routing protocol such as OSPF,
which would allow the service provider's IP network to automatically
detect the new base station? I would also assume that the new base
station would acquire its own address via some dynamic mechanism, such
as DHCP? This could make sense...

This addresses the particular scenario of a private access. My question
was more focused on the public network environment. Even when the
Internet is all-pervasive, a lot of the Internet infrastructure will be
privately owned (by telcos). I don't see what benefit there would be for
a telco to connect base stations directly to the Internet (which is
assumed not be "owned" by the telco), since the telco wouldn't be making
any money from the user's traffic...

On E2E grounds the IP pipe should go all the way to the
SIM/WIM/USIM; i.e. MIP for smart cards.  Some initial
work has been done: www.scdk.com/websim.pdf.

Comments are solicited and greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately, many carriers (not just Sprint) see no glamor in being
pipe providers, even though they can make plenty of money if they do
it well and at reasonable cost. It's a widespread problem that also
afflicts cable modem networks, for example. Fortunately, my own cable
modem provider is proving themselves so incompetent at operating all
these superfluous network functions that they're being forced to
eliminate them just to keep the packets flowing.

Hi Simon,

    Thanks for the response, some valid points, but here
are
    a few comments in reply...

    Quoting "BINAR, Simon" <Simon.Binar@TTD.NECEUR.COM>:

    > [SB] I don't quite understand the relation to

    I guess I was a little vague, I need to clarify my
point
    further...  You are right leased lines are
definately
    layer 1 as opposed to IP (layer 3).  Also, yes! you
    still need a physical media ...

    My point was that if IP networks are common, then it
may
    be a lot cheaper to connect to a LOCAL IP network as
    opposed to building an entire core network from
    scratch.

    For example consider if a Telco wished to introduce
a
    CDMA network into an area that is currently well
covered
    by another type of cellular network.

    If the other network is, say a GSM network, then a
great
    deal of infrastructure needs to be built.  BUT if
the
    network was simply a whole lot of base stations
hanging
    of an IP network, then the entire core network could
be
    re-used, assuming the capacity was there.

    Using a standard network like IP as close to the
edge as
    possible enables the flexibility to re-use existing
    infrastructure.

    Yes, I guess a some sort of routing table update
    algorithm will need to be employed...

    For small future mobile service providers, it may be
    more cost effective to buy into the banwidth of a
larger
    Telco's land line IP network then build and maintain
its
    own core network.  By doing so a small mobile
provider
    could spend more money base stations, and get better
    coverage.  I guess this may be a political thing ...
    depending on deregulation etc.?

    Even today competing telco's lease long haul
bandwidth
    from competing telco's in preference to laying their
own
    cables ... it can be very cost effective.

    Anyway, thanks for your comments, let me know what
you
    think.

    Kind Regards,

Thomas,

In case of private home addrersses the whole purpose of tunneling is to
hide the inner (private) address. Naturally Cellular IP nodes snoop the
outer address. They are not even aware of the tunnel.

Tunneling of private addresses have little security consequencies here.
I do not really see what one has to do with the other. Private addresses
require only easy to add extensions to Cellular IP and do not break the
basic mechanisms of location management and routing. It also seems that
you are a bit unfamiliar with the new Cellular IP draft which contains
security extensions (draft-valko-cellularip-01.txt). Feel free to raise
specific security concerns relating to Cellular IP.

Some further comments and thoughts on this issue:

- If I connect base stations directly to an IP network (a bunch of
routers, presumably), where will the Radio Resources Management (RRM)
function reside? In GSM, this was  typically in the BSC, and in UMTS,
this is in the RNC. If I put RRM functionality into every single base
station, I will end-up with extremely expensive (and un-sellable) base
stations. Thus, the RRM function would need to be located somewhere in
the IP network, maybe in a server? If I do this, what impact will this
have on system performance (I am especially thinking about handover
latency). Should I have local servers to handle local areas (in order to
improve system performance), or one single super-server to deal with the
entire network? Obviously, if I use local servers, this will look much
more like the "old" access networks of GSM and UMTS. This will also
reduce the flexibility of the network that you mentioned.

- The argument about re-using existing infrastructure needs to be
considered with care. I think your scenario would apply to a very
specific case, say, an ISP that wishes to get into the mobile networking
business. In this case, having the ability to connect base stations
directly to the existing IP infrastructure would be really great (of
course, additional functions would also be required for billing,
authorisation and accounting, etc...). But most mobile network operators
already have infrastructure in place. If we look at a scenario in 3-5
years time where most mobile operators have either GPRS or a variant of
an IMT-2000 network, then the infrastructure is already in place, and
expanding that infrastructure shouldn't really be an issue.

Phil,

My understanding, from TIA meetings, is that one of the main reasons behind
not going with co-located MN is simply the header overhead over the air
network.

If spectrum wasn't an issue, I think that most people would agree with you.
Perhaps the day that the government stops treating spectrum like property,
we may get to this point.

The RRM functions of GSM networks are complex because GSM is
"connection-oriented".
RRM would be much simpler if packet-based wireless access networks would
be used and could easily be implemented in the BS without support from
the
network (IEEE802.11 BS are quite cheap, aren't they?).

The main issue that I see with IP-based Cellular networks is the QoS
issue.
How do you guarante an acceptable QoS to the users without establishing
a connection...? I believe that DiffSer/IntServ amd adaptive
radios/applications might be very useful here...

that's exactly why it is important to design IP-based cellular networks:
to allow new ISP to provide mobile networking services and also to allow
a company or a university to set up its own wireless IP network (or
intranet)
without having to pay expensive fees to its GPRS operator....

There's no conflict between IP and ATM.  Most of the Internet runs over
ATM.  The advantage to having IP in the mix is that the services people
will want to access will, overwhelmingly, be off any ATM network, and you
have much more flexibility when you have a common end-to-end protocol
instead of a high level gateway in the middle which you have to keep up
to date.

I agree with Phil; spectrum is hardly the issue here. Using the
compression principles explained in rfc1144 minimal encapsulation for
example would add only 2 bytes (header checksum for the minimal
forwarding header) to the total size of the compressed header. Same
should be the case also with rfc2003.

[SB] One can argue about what "cheap" means, but IEEE802.11 is
presumably cheap because it works like a shared-media LAN (e.g.,
Ethernet). QoS makes the thing much more complex. You can use network
layer QoS like DiffServ/IntServ for the core network, but you need also
a dedicated QoS scheme at the radio layer as well. What's the point of
agreeing a certain bandwidth via RSVP if it cannot be guaranteed by the
radio layer (read: 802.11)? Introducing QoS at the radio layer
essentially makes it connection-oriented, and thus makes it a complex
system. Connectionless QoS may be possible in IP networks where
bandwidth is supposedly abundant, but I believe radio spectrum will
always be a scarce resource, even in times of UMTS and IMT-2000, and
thus, efficient resource management will be required.

I do not fully agree. I believe that by using smart radio and
applications
 that adapt to the environments and give higher priorities to sensitive
flows you can do a lot without having to open connections....

For campus or company networks (i.e controled environments), adaptive
radio/applications + well dimensioning should make it...when the
user switches to a public network then that an other story but
in this case it is probably OK to have more complex base stations
(eventhough some coarse grain reservation + access control mechanisms
might be enough)...

I agree that more research/experimentations are needed though...

Just to confirm Phil's observations, I came to the same conclusions,
although I used a different set of tools, and I don't think my
service contract included an NDA.  Joe

Subject:      [MOBILE-IP] The grace period (AAA requirements)
To: MOBILE-IP@STANDARDS.NORTELNETWORKS.COM
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hello folks,

The revised AAA draft is due out soon, and some decision has
to be made regarding whether to explicitly put in the requirement
for allowing a grace period for Mobile IP registrations, in the
AAA requirements draft.

From the discussion on the mailing list, it does not seem that
any consensus has been reached.

But, perhaps more importantly, this discussion may not even belong
in the AAA requirements draft.  My reasoning is as follows.

The original point is that sometimes a foreign agent might want
to forward a Registration Request before getting an answer back
from the AAA infrastructure.

Whether or not the foreign agent does this does not necessarily
limit its ability to rely on the AAA infrastructure for answers.

So, for instance, we should try to make sure that the AAA
infrastructure can provide the necessary authorization to a foreign
agent, independent of whether or not the messages from the foreign
agent to the AAAF contain the Mobile IP registration data.

On the other hand, the discussion about whether a foreign agent
should be allowed to offer this grace period is pretty important,
and I hope will continue even if it is not crucial for the wording
of the AAA requirements draft.

Does this sound like a reasonable resolution for now?


Regards,
Charlie P.

Not only do I agree with Phil, but I want to point out that if
efficient spectrum usage is important, then it is all the _more_ reason
to use packets -- since you can now do VOIP and get far more efficient
usage of the channel and you can also elimiate 1/2 the processing
currently done at the basestations -- since you no longer need to do
voice transcoding in the access network (only at the points where this
traffic has to go into the legacy voice networks).

Additionally, by simply supporting packet traffic and doing the
encoding/decoding only in the end-points, it become much easier to
introduce new CODECs which are more efficient or in the case of some
languages more suitable. In the current systems the introduction of
half-rate voice codecs takes a very long time. In certain vendors
basestations the signal processor can not be remotely reprogrammed
(i.e., their is no path from the BSC to the code memory of the signal
processor). Hence to change this code requires a visit to each
basestation. Here is another good example of where an IP network
attached device would be much better, since it is more likely that the
system would be remotely programmable.

Another reason that telecom people should read the "End-to-End
Arguments in System Design" by Jerome H. Saltzer,
David P. Reed, and David D. Clark -- is so that they would stop doing
foolish things like the interleaving that is done in GPRS -- which
both increases the latency and increases the probability of damaging
more than one packet.

Over the last several years a number of theses have shown that the
best thing (in terms of throughput and overall latency) that can be
done with the low level ARQ mechanisms in DECT, GSM, ... is to turn
them off!

Have they've looked at RFC 2507 and friends?
(There are some issues with packet loss which hopefully a future robhc
working group will address.)

I think physics get in the way. The available spectrum between a sender
and receiver is quite finite and always will be.

Wired bandwith don't have such physical limitations.

Remember the old saying, premature optimization is the root of all
evil.  As I pointed out in my message, header overhead is a red
herring here.

Hello Phil,

I second most of your comments on pipes (spectrum) and end-to-end
design.

But I finally have to respond to the following.

> If so, this is a totally artificial problem created by the cellular
> carrier's pointless insistence on implementing its own MIP FA.

Whether or not a foreign agent is pointless should be decided in
each particular instance.  You may say that it's pointless for
ISPs to charge more for using multiple IP addresses, or that many
other existing practices are pointless.  I think it is important
to allow for the _possibility_ that a mobile node may not wish to
operate with a co-located care-of address.  I also think it's fine
if it wishes to do so.


>                                                              If you

That depends on what you mean the problem is.  There are a lot
of reasons why an IP address should survive the duration of a
single "session", and those reasons may well become even more
important over time.

I agree that this is a great model for mobile nodes that can support it.

I also don't agree that it's the "only" MIP configuration that
makes sense, so I don't fit in your first person plurality,
althought I certainly agree that it does make sense.  Somehow,
I don't feel as if I am being blinded by my marketing background.

From my understanding, you are saying that things only seem to be
a little bit broken now.  I compare your solution to the user-oriented
retransmission algorithm (UORA):
        If it doesn't work the first time, hit the mouse button again.
I'd rather build better systems than that.  Furthermore, it's not
so easy for embedded systems, which are increasingly likely to be
mobile.
And it would happen more and more often, as cell sizes shrink to offer
more bandwidth.


Lastly, I _agree_ with you that a mobile node should be able to use
its temporary IP address for many such applications where retries
are O.K, and transaction time short.



While I'm spinning on this topic, I would like to point out that
most of the recent problems that have been raised are involved with
melding network authorization with Mobile IP.  Putting in network
authorization with Mobile IP might be easier than with any other
infrastructure capable of rapid mobility, but it still isn't simple.
I don't think that building up layer-2 mobility systems to replace
the more natural mobility handling at layer-3 is the best way to
make progress towards our future always-on, seamless mobility.

Regards,
Charlie P.

That's fine, and a Simple IP service will be available for customers
like you.  But carriers have also decided to provide a foreign agent
service (with FA-located COA) for these networks, and I would argue
that this does add value.  I think we need to take into account
current and future applications that need IP addresses to persist
longer than the connectivity to a single base station or radio access
network.  The market will decide which one of us is right.

Given that Mobile IP will be used, the advantages of FA-located COA
include (in increasing order of importance, IMHO):

1) Reduced overhead on the air interface.

Perhaps this is a red herring after mechanisms such as RFC2507 have
been deployed, but I'm not sure how long that's going to take.

2) Reduced consumption of address space.

Yes, we would like to provide a VPN service to mobile nodes where they
don't even get a public address.  This can be accomplished by
concatenating the link-layer demux pipe with a Mobile IP pipe that
originates at the FA.

Both of the above are related to:

3) Simplified design of mobile nodes.

Arguably, mobile nodes are made simpler if they only have to deal with
one IP interface + a signaling protocol, rather than two IP interfaces,
one with a Mobile IP encapsulation on it.  This will ease the task of
writing clients for existing operating systems (yes, I'm talking about
Windows).

Also, it would be nice to access a private network without having to
implement IPSec on a handset.  In this case hop-by-hop protection of
traffic (using link-layer encryption) is good enough for a lot of
people.

4) Future techniques for fast handoff.

To support very low-latency handoff, some kind of forwarding mechanism
needs to be in place at the old point of attachment.  This service is
one that cannot be provided end-to-end because the mobile node is no
longer there at the time it is needed!  It requires MIP signaling
(using the Previous FA extension) and coordination with the network.
All of the proposals for non-transparent micromobility (HAWAII,
Cellular IP) require that the mobile node send MIP control messages to
some entity in the network.

5) The "attendant" function.

If you believe Chip's note about using true packet interfaces as
opposed to circuit interfaces, which itself makes the end-to-end
argument, then we need to replace PPP.  Doing so while preserving all
of the access controls that need to be provided is made possible by
integrating such authorization with the Mobile IP registration
process.

PK> ones who understand the issues, anyway) and for those who conceived

PK> & Clark, "End-to-End Arguments in System Design"
PK> (http://people.qualcomm.com/karn/library.html).

Certainly a good paper, and one of its points is that hop-by-hop
measures are often appropriate for purposes of optimization.  If
carriers have decided to spend resources on optimizations like the
above, who are we to argue?  Most of the standards work has already
been carried out in the Mobile IP working group and elsewhere.  If we
don't want to use them we can always fall back to Simple IP.

Hello,

After having had a discussion with our AD (Dave Oran) we have
the following options for moving ahead with the MIER draft
(draft-ietf-mobileip-mier-00.txt):

1. Do a WG last call for this draft requesting a Proposed standard
   status and have RFC2002-bis reference it for the definition of
   extensions.
2. Roll MIER into RFC2002-bis, which will be going to a WG last call
   soon.

In view of the two drafts that are currently on the IESG plate, the
MN-NAI draft and the Vendor specific extensions draft, the extensions
defined in these drafts would have to be modified to the new mobile IP
extension format.

I would like to hear your views on the above two options.

All,

I am submitting a new Internet Draft to the secretariat. I am including
the I-Ds abstract below for your information. If you wish to get your
hands on this draft before it is available in the archives, you can
retrieve it at www.diameter.org/draft-calhoun-mobileip-proactive-fa-00.txt.

The essence of the draft is that fast hand-offs using Mobile IP is a
difficult thing to do. The route optimization draft proposes the binding
update, that allows for a quicker hand-off, but there are still two
issues when the binding update is used alone:

1. how does the new foreign agent get the security association from the
   previous foreign agent.
2. the mobile node must listen for advertisements in order to initiate
   the hand-off.

The new proposal allows the new Foreign Agent to take a more proactive
approach, by allowing it to send an indication to the mobile node that it
must perform a hand-off. This proposal still requires that the route
optimization's Binding Update be used between the Foreign Agents.

We believe that this proposal, combined with the route optimization's
Binding Update, will allow for fast hand-offs, similar to those seen in
today's cellular networks. Note, this proposal only works with link
layers that allow the foreign agent to measure signal strength, so one
could not use this proposal over ethernet networks.

Thanks,

PatC

Abstract

The Mobile IP WG has been investigating how its protocol can be
used in environments that require fast hand-off, especially
important for real-time applications such as voice and video.
Certain link layers, such as those used in cellular networks,
allow for the measurement of signal strength, which is typically
used to determine when a hand-off is required. This specification
defines extensions to the Mobile IP protocol, which allows the
Foreign Agent to send an unsolicited message to the Mobile Node,
requesting that the Mobile Node register with a new Foreign
Agent.

Allright, I'll bite.

What *is* the access method in question? Are you talking about PPP?
If so, the simple act of re-establishing PPP is quite high when a
hand-off occurs.

In our scenario, we are proposing that the carriers are delivering
IP services (directly), and the service is requested through Mobile IP.
Mobile IP will make use of AAA, in much the same way PPP does today.

We agree that we should take this into account, even though I believe
it's a minority requirement. I argue that the right way to do it is to
put a FA in the mobile unit.

>2) Reduced consumption of address space.

This is also a red herring. In the simple IP service I envision, the
user could say at setup time whether he needs a globally routable
address, or if a net 10 address behind a NAT would be
satisfactory. The vast majority of mobile network applications are
pure clients, so they'd be happy with the NAT.  (As far as I can tell,
I don't get a choice with Sprint PCS. I get a net 10 address and the
NAT, take it or leave it.)

In the end, of course, we'll have no alternative but to deploy IPv6.
It'll have to happen when the pain of not doing so exceeds the pain of
transitioning. This discussion makes me think that may happen sooner
than I thought.

I disagree. Most (all?) IP stacks already, or could easily, implement
virtual interfaces that support tunneling. I suspect this already
includes Windows.  A mobile host with a pair of interfaces (one real
and one virtual) would find it very straightforward to select between
the two.  Applications (usually servers, but possibly also long-lived
telnet sessions) that need a fixed address regardless of location and
are willing to pay the price in reduced performance would bind() to
the virtual interface. This would automatically cause them to use MIP.
Applications that don't care what local IP address they use (e.g.,
http, pop, smtp and other short lived clients) can bind to the real
physical interface and bypass all of the MIP mechanisms and
overhead. The two can coexist quite nicely on the same machine.

I've done something much like this on my home Linux system ever since
I got Road Runner cable modem service several years ago. My home
machine runs servers (sendmail, ssh), but Road Runner issues dynamic
IP addresses with DHCP.  My solution is much like dual-interface MIP
with a co-located FA, only I manage the tunnels manually instead of
with the actual MIP registration protocols.  ("Handoffs", i.e., IP
address changes, are usually infrequent, so this hasn't been too much
of a problem.  The "home agent" is a Linux box sitting on the Qualcomm
DMZ. I just ssh in and issue the appropriate routing commands). My
local clients (which account for the vast majority of my traffic) use
the RR-assigned address, so they communicate directly with their
remote servers without using the tunnel at all.  But when somebody
sends me mail to my static address, the inbound packets are first
routed to the machine on the Qualcomm DMZ, which encapsulates and
re-routes the packets to my current RR IP address.  My outbound
replies are also tunneled, but only to evade a source address ingress
filter in Road Runner's upstream path.

Contrast this with a mobile node that only supports one interface, and
a carrier-provided FA. MIP is either on or off, so if *any* mobile
application needs MIP, they're *all* forced to use it.

I could conceive of schemes that multiplex both kinds of traffic down
the one interface to the carrier, but that's obviously so much more
complicated and inelegant than the dual-interface approach that we
needn't consider it.

Only people who don't know any better. First of all, the link-layer
"encryption" in *all* of the digital cellular systems is a joke.  Even
so, the real hazard has always been sniffers on ISP Ethernets along
the way. Only end-to-end encryption (or possibly end-to-firewall
encryption in the case of remote access to a corporate network) can
provide any real security benefit.

>All of the proposals for non-transparent micromobility (HAWAII,

I confess that I'm concerned mainly with packet data on IS-95 CDMA,
because that's what I've done for Qualcomm. CDMA has a "soft handoff"
concept that can only be implemented down at the physical layer where
individual channel symbols can be combined. It is just not possible to
do it in Mobile IP on a per-packet basis. This means that CDMA systems
have (and will always have) substantial intra-network mobility that
greatly lessens the need for higher-layer mobility. A single CDMA
system generally covers an entire metropolitan area, although this
might not be true for some very large cities. In either case, the
average inter-system handoff interval (i.e., where MIP would be of
use) is extremely long compared with the average user session length,
to say nothing of the average user transaction length. (By
"transaction" I mean a TCP connection from start to finish, e.g., a
GET from a webserver, or a POP or SMTP session to relay mail.)

I understand that Mobile IP is being considered for intra-system
mobility in some dense micro-cellular environments. Here I have less
of a problem with it, since the routing inefficiencies are over
shorter distances. But this does not alleviate the need for a
co-located FA for the mobile user who needs true mobility, as he will
probably need to roam to other networks without FAs, and also to avoid
the use of wide-area MIP when it is not desired.

And if you do control your whole network, why not just use a standard
internal routing protocol like OSPF to keep track of your users as
they move?  Or you could punt with routing altogether and use Ethernet
switching (bridging).

I haven't seen Chip's note yet, but there's another way to preserve
access controls in a "true packet environment": IPSEC.

Actually, the statement was that lower-level functionality can
sometimes be justified as a performance enhancement. This is clearly
true; link level retransmission is the archetype.  I put a link-level
retransmission scheme into the radio link layer protocol I designed
for IS-95. I see no similar performance enhancement associated with
carrier-provided MIP, with the possible exception of reduced header
overhead (which has already been discussed).  On the contrary, I see a
very big performance penalty assocated with MIP, namely suboptimal
routing, and substantially increased network complexity.

Well, given their current data airtime prices, I don't think Sprint
PCS will have to worry about address exhaustion anytime soon. Your
average generic dialup ISP charges a heck of a lot less than Sprint
does and they don't seem to have any problem giving their customers
global addresses for the duration of their connections. So do the
cable modem services I know about (@Home and Road Runner).

Actually, I think private addresses and a NAT would be acceptable to
the vast majority of wireless data users for the same reason that MIP
isn't very useful -- nearly all of the applications are network
clients, not servers.

>This is not true...!! The mobility signalling is very heavy, especially how

I'm thinking mainly about IS-95 CDMA, which has considerable
intra-system mobility for some good reasons (e.g., support of
soft-handoff). This makes a MIP handoff a pretty rare event, so rare
that most users probably wouldn't need MIP at all.

Phil,

I will not get into a discussion of the validity of NDA related issues (see
person e-mail to you).  I will point out that if you are having issues
connecting your Linus machine to the Internet from our CDMA network you AND
you are doing it via the 3Com QNC technology there is a very simple
explanation why you are having trouble.  We currently DO NOT offer this
service.  The only services we offer using QNC is via the built-in
microbrowser.  We are working of developing a product that will allow direct
access to the Internet and are working to put the appropriate back-end
equipment into place.  Once we have the network ready for the service then
we will announce and launch the product.  So I would argue that your
description is not accurate.

                My description of Sprint PCS's packet data service was based
totally
                on my personal observations using my personally-owned phone,
a data
                cable and a laptop running Linux. ANY Sprint PCS user who
knows how to
                use standard Linux/UNIX networking tools such as pppd,
netstat and
                traceroute can easily discern the very same information in a
few
                minutes. It can hardly be considered proprietary.

                If my description is no longer accurate, I would appreciate
any
                corrections you might make. I stopped using the service when
my first
                bill gave me sticker shock.

I would disagree with your statement that we see no value in being just a
"pipe"  I believe that being a pipe is a service we should and will provide.
I also believe there are users that want more then a pipe.  We need to be
prepared to be that as well.  Per a different thread I have indicated that
some of your current comments are not accurate, therefore I will not bore
this group with the details again.

                Ah, here we reach the crux of the issue. Speaking as a
potential user
                of your service, an IP "pipe" is all I want from you, and
it's all I'm
                willing to pay for.

                And it's not just me. I know I speak for many prospective
users (the
                ones who understand the issues, anyway) and for those who
conceived
                the Internet architecture. Go read the classic paper by
Saltzer, Reed
                & Clark, "End-to-End Arguments in System Design"
                (http://people.qualcomm.com/karn/library.html).

                This one paper is so fundamental that I've often thought
prospective
                IETFers (especially those affiliated with telcos) should be
required
                to read it and pass a test before they can participate in
any IETF
                working group. :-)

                Unfortunately, many carriers (not just Sprint) see no glamor
in being
                pipe providers, even though they can make plenty of money if
they do
                it well and at reasonable cost. It's a widespread problem
that also
                afflicts cable modem networks, for example. Fortunately, my
own cable
                modem provider is proving themselves so incompetent at
operating all
                these superfluous network functions that they're being
forced to
                eliminate them just to keep the packets flowing.

I think there are other alternatives.

I agree that MIER would fit well in RFC2002-bis.  Failing that,
I would like to strongly suggest that MIER become an informational
draft, not a Proposed Standard.  My reasoning for this is simple.
MIER does not specify any protocol.

Second, the draft that I read had some _guidelines_ in the
Appendix.  I do not think that those guidelines should be
considered binding on the design for whatever generalized
extensions would be eventually be specified.

For instance, the Challenge draft has a fully specified
Generalized Authentication Extension, along with the
definition for a particular subtype of that generalized
extension.  I expect that a revised Route Optimization
draft will specify another subtype for that extension, and
that the Regional Registration draft will specify yet another
subtype.  These definitions do conform to the guideline in
MIER, the last time I looked.

However, I do not expect that an NAI generalized extension,
should one ever be defined, would need to conform to the
guideline in the MIER appendix.

I'll hold off on sending out the revised RFC2002-bis until I
hear whether working group members wish to include MIER
in that draft.

I'd also like to suggest that the NAI draft be allowed to go
forward before the MIER questions are resolved.  Some
people have been waiting a long time for that draft.

Hello Phil,

I'm a bit constrained for time, so I cannot respond to all
the points in your thoughtful notes.  But I notice the following
incongruity.

On the one hand, you say:

> pure clients, so they'd be happy with the NAT.

On the other hand, you say:

Great paper, worth rereading.  But I don't see NAT as a way
towards promoting the design principles articulated in that
paper.  Or, towards promoting IPsec either, which is relevant
to other parts of your recent notes.

I might reformulate the basic design principle by observing that
applications that do not want to be mobility-aware must rely on
implementation of mobility in lower layers of the system design.

Furthermore, IPv6 has a nicer mobility story.

Simon,
        I understand some of your concerns, here are some comments:

Your concern is valid!  I have heard a lot of talk about how handoffs
will be handled and the latency an IP network will introduce if it is
used for signaling purposes.

But why should an IP network be any slower then any other wire line
network such as a GSM core network????

I think the trap is that people get confused between an IP network that
will have a SLA to support the real time traffic, and the current PUBLIC
Internet in its current state.

They are two very different things!  The current internet has grown to
support explosive mostly elastic type traffic.  Telco's in the future
will build packet networks (IP) specifically to support real time
traffic, there is no reason why they will be any worse in supporting
signaling traffic then a dedicated network.

I don't think RRM is such a difficult task to manage.  In my opinion the
IP address will terminate at the base station and then you will have a
point to point link to the mobile.  Applications that have strict
bandwidth requirements will be able to request a particular bandwidth
from lower layers, for the last leg of the link.  I don't think this is
too much to ask from a base station, ie: who to give bandwidth to (yes,
specific protocols will need to be established).

In GSM you have a connection orientated system with a whole lot of its
own protocols.  When you make a connection the HLR (maybe VLR) needs to
be accessed, in IP this access is done by the home agent, connections
need to be maintained BY THE NETWORK, in IP the connection is maintained
by higher layers (transmission, application).  This would make resource
management a lot simpler in an IP network.

Functions that have dedicated hardware in a GSM network can be
implemented on a server or in an application on an IP network, thus
demanding less of the network itself.  Also some of these functions can
be shared across networks, ie a home agent will be used regardless of
using GPRS, IMT-2000 or IEEE802.11, this saves on a lot of
infrastructure!

What about expanding to another network type.  How compatible are GSM
PLMN components with an IMT-2000 PLMS network???  I think it would be
better to have a common end to end core network like IP then building
customized high level gateways to bridge different RAN PLMN technologies
together.

Hello,

I bring in my vote for the grace period...

I agree with Asokan, Patrik and others, that allowing the grace period
is a policy issue. Furthermore, we should not forbid such liberal
policies with our protocol design!
Telcos may not like the possibility of using their network even for
short periods of time. However, telcos are certainly not the only ones
providing wireless services in the future. As someone pointed out
earlier, the pure Ip accessibility may even not be the ultimate source
for cash flows. I hope every university lab or airport lobby bar will be
able to set up its own wireless AP and start providing access to the
Internet. As the number of access provider increases, the number of
"inter-domain" handoffs may significantly increase. I really do not want
to mandate _everyone_ to disable the grace period and thus end up in
rediculous latencies and unbearable glitches in the connections.


Best regards,
                Tom

Hi,

My comments about the Parallel vs Sequential AAA&MIP processing:

If we can find a way to support a parallel processing of MIP and AAA
signaling, I really support that. I think mixing MIP and AAA too much
with each other is not a a good solution. Also, encapsulation the
other's messages entirely inside other's messages seems both unnecessary
and inefficient.

Could we define the requirements for the interfaces between the AAA
protocol and the MIP protocol to support parallel processing of these
protocols?
I think it would be possible.

The picture I have in mind has two messaging flows, the original MIP and
the AAA. AAA flow would happen at a smaller range (inside the core)
 (i.e. FA <-> AAAF <-> Broker / HA <-> AAAH <-> Broker)
while the MIP would cover all the way from MN to HA.

Here is my proposal:
(message flows in a successfull registration)

1. The reg.request with enough information for Autorization and
Authentication originates from the MN.

2. The reg.req. is processed by the FA.

3. An AAA message is send by the FA (either to AAAF or to a broker)
   The FA uses the information from the MIP reg.req. to build the AAA
message.
   At the same time the MIP reg.req. is forwarded to the HA.

4. The MIP reg.req. is processed by the HA.

5. HA answers to MN with a MIP reg.reply.
(E.g. according to MN authentication, but the user remains
unauthenticated at the moment.)

6. Reg.reply reaches FA and MN, and MN starts using the network.
   (Alternatively we might stop the reply at FA to wait for the AAA
approval, but the MN could try to access the network even without the
received reply.)

7. An AAA message exchange happens between HA, AAAH, the Broker / AAAF,
and other AAA elements. The user is authenticated and authorized,
Acocunting begins. Finally, the FA gets the AAA approval/denial.

8. FA sends a new reg.reply or the postponed original reg.reply or a
reg.reply with a correct denial code to the MN.


The interface we would need here would contain:
- FAs ability to fomulate AAA messages to AAAF (AAA module)
- HAs ----------------- " --------------- AAAH  ---- " ----
- FAs and HAs ability to understand the AAA messages and to generate
replies according to them.


I would claim this approach beats the sequential approach in efficiency
by far.
Your comments about possible weaknesses of this rapidly hacked
parallelism example are most welcome!

Best regards,
                Tom

Hi All,

Does anyone have any idea whether those folks at Microsoft are planning on implementing Mobile IP in the new Windows 2000 ? 

Additionally I've heard of some experimental implementations of Mobile IP for Windows, but are there any commercial products available ? 

thanks

         I think considering MIER draft as a Proposed standard is  a better
option of the WG for the following two reasons:
        1- It will guarantee consistency of using the new extension among
all  future drafts and it will be much less confusing  for people.
        2- If the material is folded in other drafts,  the authors of MIER
should join the list of authors for those drafts. I don't think that the
other drafts' authors would like this to happen, but I might be mistaken.

        Also, I agree with Charlie that the NAI draft should go forward.

Msoft has stated many times at different forums that MIP is not planned to
be bundled into any of their desktop OSs. From what I have heard they may
put MIP into Windows CE at some point, but I have not heard or seen
anything recent from them on this topic.

  I understand that people worry that TCP (implementations) are not very good
  at handling data loss due to data corruption as most (BSD derived)
  implementations are optimised for data loss due to congestion and basically
  back off sending packets, instead of re-transmitting immeadiately.

  As radio networks are prone to great amounts of data corruption (as
  exemplified by the extensive work GSM does to correct errors by duplicating
  data, spreading voice data across succesive packets and so forth) the TCP
  and lossy radio networks probably don't mix very well.

  I presume that link level protocols will try to hide this a great deal -
  but is there any understanding at what level of error (due to data
  corruption) is acceptable for TCP?

  I guess voice can handle this loss as latency is more important but most of
  the Internet protocols we love want TCP.

Hi,
In RFC 2002 Section 2.4, it says:

The maximum interval SHOULD be chosen appropriately based upon
the characteristics of the media over which the mobile node is

soliciting.  This maximum interval SHOULD be at least one minute
between Solicitations.

Please give me further explaination, thanks.

OK, I'm happy with your response. My main issue is really that AAA and IP mobility are separate topics and should be kept separated (and out from current discussion, most people seems to agree on  that).

But just to make one comparision. The ISSLL WG of IETF is the one group who is responsible for mapping the work of the Intserv WG to different link layer technologies. Mapping of AAA to different technologies/services would also be needed, and coordination an issue wherever there is a possible interaction, e.g. Mobile IP and PPP. Who will take care of that?

Cheers,
   /Martin

The charter of the AAA WG is to define requirements for a AAA protocol based
on inputs from the WGs that would use that protocol. It is explicitly *not*
in the AAA WG charter to define how Mobile IP will use AAA. That is the job
of the Mobile IP WG, which is best qualified for that task. Among other
things, this ensures that issues of Mobile IP architecture are discussed
within the WG that best understands Mobile IP.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IP Routing for Wireless/Mobile Hosts Working Group of the IETF.

        Title           : Mobile IP Challenge/Response Extensions
        Author(s)       : C. Perkins, P. Calhoun
        Filename        : draft-ietf-mobileip-challenge-08.txt
        Pages           : 14
        Date            : 07-Jan-00

Mobile IP, as originally specified, defines an authentication
extension (the Mobile-Foreign Authentication extension) by
which a mobile node can authenticate itself to a foreign agent.
Unfortunately, this extension does not provide ironclad replay
protection for the foreign agent, and does not allow for the use
of existing techniques (such as CHAP) for authenticating portable
computer devices.  In this specification, we define extensions for
the Mobile IP Agent Advertisements and the Registration Request
that allow a foreign agent to use a challenge/response mechanism to
authenticate the mobile node.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username

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.

Phil,

I have been following your arguments in lurk mode and I agree with
most of the points you make (such as the use of colocated addresses
etc.)

However, I don't think that wireless data service deployment is being
held
back by the complexity of Mobile IP - in fact, Mobile IP is an extremely
simple protocol (If a client can have TCP, which it must, everything
else
is trivial!) It is the wireless side of things (bandwidth, price,
utility, compatability/reuse of telco infrastructure) that is
holding things back...I believe that it is fairly trivial to set up a
wireless data service with WaveLANs (with DHCP and Mobile IP as well)
but
when you add issues with CDMA/GSM base stations, power-saving/paging,
provisioning, interworking with voice services, etc., it gets
complicated.

The key question is does one just assume that packet data service will
just be web access and be an adjunct to current voice infrastructure?
If yes, just slap on a DHCP server with some AAA functionality,
an interworking function to current base stations with some
performance optimizations like header compression, a NAT for IP-address
starved ISPs and be done with it.

I think the Mobile IP community in general has a much more broader
vision wherein the network is completely made up of IP addressable
entities with air-interface specific processing relegated just to the
base stations, and all services are delivered through IP (including
voice).

Only time can tell how things will end up...

Finally, a personal pet peeve of mine...I think the different standard
bodies now are trying to mix up both these models and are coming up with
an ugly beast that is neither voice-centric nor data-centric...

Cheers,
Ram

P.S. I felt the need to debate one of your points: you say
CDMA has a "soft-handoff" capability that can only be implemented
at the physical (link?) layer. Isn't this another violation of the
end-to-end concept in itself? Why can't this "soft-handoff" service
be achieved at the IP-layer (I can easily engineer a bunch of
wavelan base stations to multicast IP packets during handoff for ONLY
those users/services that need this feature)?

    I'd also like to point out that not having a shared secret between the MN 
and HA can also be viewed as a policy issue, but Mobile IP requires it, as so 
many adamantly pointed out in DC!

    Despite this thread subject, this is a Mobile IP issue, not a AAA issue as 
it's up to the FA as the policy enforcement point.  If a grace period is 
allowed, it'll also be an implementation issue.  Another issue will be if the FA 
decides to revoke the registration request (after the HA has approved it) does 
it need to inform the home domain.  This certainly is a AAA issue.

                                  Cheers,
                                      Steve

Hello,

I am "following up" to my own notes of discussion regarding
some comments made by Alper Yegin.  I would like to issue
a new draft, so I made some provisional decisions that will
be detailed below.

I would like to reissue the draft before tomorrow afternoon,
so any timely comments would be appreciated.

For anyone who wishes to see the newly revised draft, I have put it
on my web page, at:
        http://www.iprg.nokia.com/~charliep/txt/mobileip/mobileip.txt
The document has appendices with a list of changes, and a list of
open issues that I know about.

In the absence of further discussion, I inserted the following text:

     A zero UDP checksum SHOULD be accepted by the recipient.
     The behavior of the mobile node and the home agent with
     respect to their mutual acceptance of packets with zero
     UDP checksums SHOULD be defined as part of the mobility
     security association which exists between them.

I changed the word "sent" to "unicast".  This allows the foreign agent
to send ARPs as long as it is not broadcast.  I think this means even
not using any layer-2 multicast or broadcast address.

Help on this point will be appreciated.  I don't have time just now
to go through all the previous archived discussion on this point.

From some previous discussion, I have the following unresolved point:

> Q: new FA forwarding text; sometimes two MNs on the same FA sometimes get
>    traffic forwarded directly rather than via HA.  Also MNs can introduce
>    denial of service if they make a mistake in their registration
>    messages - sometimes re-registrations can be redirected at a MN!

Do I need to do anything here?

Charlie P.

Nothing is ever "simple" when you involve formal telephone standards
bodies, such as the TIA. The MIP protocol itself may be simple, but
the debates over mobility in the TIA clearly delayed deployment of a
packet data service.

To be fair, MIP wasn't the only culprit in the delay. Just as
significant (if not more so) was the carriers' insistence on making
asynch dialup modem emulation and fax support top priority, and giving
low priority to direct IP packet access. This continued even after we
succeeded in persuading the TIA to base the asynch data/fax service,
making packet data a subset of what's needed to support async
data/fax.

What I've always found truly astounding is when a carrier concedes
that a certain feature is best done end-to-end, but that it must still
be a mandatory network feature regardless of cost or delay because the
"average user" won't want to install the necessary software to support
the feature on his own computer.

When it comes to adding new features needed by their customers, even
Microsoft looks fast and responsive in comparison to most telephone
industry vendors. QNC is a good example; it's a kludge that exists
solely to bypass the foot dragging of certain base station vendors in
implementing CDMA IP packet data service, even though they had already
done async data & fax.

Hello Charlie,

Although the MIER draft does not specify a protocol, it does specify a
template that is MANDATED for all future Mobile IP extensions. This is a
strong binding to the base Mobile IP protocol and therefore the draft needs
to be a 'proposed standard'.

The authors of MIER are in favor of the option where we pursue MIER
standardization independent of RFC2002bis. Work on MIER has come to a close
and we should complete the standardization and move on.

The guidelines in the appendix are meant to be just that ...guidelines! They
are not intended to be binding on future design [beyond the first 32 bytes
which, as mentioned above, MUST be in the MIER format].

I think there are other alternatives.

I agree that MIER would fit well in RFC2002-bis.  Failing that,
I would like to strongly suggest that MIER become an informational
draft, not a Proposed Standard.  My reasoning for this is simple.
MIER does not specify any protocol.

Second, the draft that I read had some _guidelines_ in the
Appendix.  I do not think that those guidelines should be
considered binding on the design for whatever generalized
extensions would be eventually be specified.

For instance, the Challenge draft has a fully specified
Generalized Authentication Extension, along with the
definition for a particular subtype of that generalized
extension.  I expect that a revised Route Optimization
draft will specify another subtype for that extension, and
that the Regional Registration draft will specify yet another
subtype.  These definitions do conform to the guideline in
MIER, the last time I looked.

However, I do not expect that an NAI generalized extension,
should one ever be defined, would need to conform to the
guideline in the MIER appendix.

I'll hold off on sending out the revised RFC2002-bis until I
hear whether working group members wish to include MIER
in that draft.

I'd also like to suggest that the NAI draft be allowed to go
forward before the MIER questions are resolved.  Some
people have been waiting a long time for that draft.

Regards,
Charlie P.

CDMA forward link soft handoff works by combining the signals from
multiple cell sites down at the symbol (encoded bit) level before they
are even demodulated and Viterbi decoded. This often succeeds in
producing a good frame when *none* of the individual signals could be
decoded by themselves.

Yes, you could implement a scheme in Mobile IP that would multicast
the same packets across multiple cells. I suggested that very feature
years ago when the group was new. But it produces a good packet only
when at least one of the individual packets gets through.  That's much
better than nothing, but it cannot outperform true soft handoff. For
best performance, you need to do the handoff combining on a much
smaller granularity (the symbol level) than is possible anywhere above
the IP layer (where the smallest unit is an IP datagram).

CDMA soft handoff is an example of an optional performance enhancing
feature implemented at a lower layer, so it is in harmony with the
end-to-end model.

Phil,

CDMA Carriers are not deploying data for a very simple reason.  The business
case does not prove in under current technologies and with what users are
willing to pay.  As you yourself have stated, data prices should not be
billed at a premium, but instead at a discount (not your words exactly, but
something like that).  How can we charge less for a 64kbps rate that is
using 6 to 8 times the RF spectrum (during active state) then a voice call,
bill less then for a single voice call, and expect to stay in business?

The N. American carriers implemented QNC for a very simple reason.  It is a
"packet look alike" (mobile originated only), cost basically nothing extra
to implement, and is a solution that carriers believe will support most of
their customers until we can get a good packet solution out there.

Regarding our deployment of circuit based services, again, the decision was
based on a through business case decision, not just technology.

Regards

                Nothing is ever "simple" when you involve formal telephone
standards
                bodies, such as the TIA. The MIP protocol itself may be
simple, but
                the debates over mobility in the TIA clearly delayed
deployment of a
                packet data service.

                To be fair, MIP wasn't the only culprit in the delay. Just
as
                significant (if not more so) was the carriers' insistence on
making
                asynch dialup modem emulation and fax support top priority,
and giving
                low priority to direct IP packet access. This continued even
after we
                succeeded in persuading the TIA to base the asynch data/fax
service,
                making packet data a subset of what's needed to support
async
                data/fax.

                What I've always found truly astounding is when a carrier
concedes
                that a certain feature is best done end-to-end, but that it
must still
                be a mandatory network feature regardless of cost or delay
because the
                "average user" won't want to install the necessary software
to support
                the feature on his own computer.

                When it comes to adding new features needed by their
customers, even
                Microsoft looks fast and responsive in comparison to most
telephone
                industry vendors. QNC is a good example; it's a kludge that
exists
                solely to bypass the foot dragging of certain base station
vendors in
                implementing CDMA IP packet data service, even though they
had already
                done async data & fax.

We are ARPing the MN, because we don't know it's MAC address. I cannot see
how we are able to find out the MAC address without link-layer broadcast or
multicast.

The host specific route to MN shouldn't be available to any packets
other than the ones arriving to FA on the tunnel configured for this MN.
This requires forwarding based on not only destination address but also
incoming interface. Without this, there's the problem of getting HA out
of the loop, and in the case of MN moving another site, host specific
route will not go away until previous FA expires the registration,
and until then any communication going through this FA will be
interrupted.

How about adding some text, requiring above prevention.

Hello Raja,

I do not support the mandatory conformance of all future Mobile IP
extensions to the format illustrated in MIER.  There may other
requirements that we don't know about yet.  Furthermore, there
might be extensions that don't need subtypes.

> The authors of MIER are in favor of the option where we pursue MIER

My comments should be counted as Last Call comments, requesting
additional clarification and possibly respecification of MIER.
I have not talked to _anyone_, outside the authors of the MIER
draft, who supports the mandatory conformance of all future
extensions to the MIER format, and I have talked to more than
ne person who agrees with me that such conformance should not
be mandated.

I reiterate my request that MIER be considered purely informational,
and not binding on future extension specifications.

Can you say a few words about why the appendices are there?  I think
the draft does not benefit from their presence, and that it would
be very easy for the guidelines to be miscontrued in future Mobile IP
discussions.  It would be better for them to removed, in my opinion,
and I have thought about it a lot of times.

Charlie P.

Why does an FA need to ARP the MN?  The FA knows the MN's MAC address
when the MN registers and should store this info in future communications.
Am I not seeing a scenario that you're describing that requires an FA
to ARP?

Isn't this route optimization? :)  My thought is that bad to have
packets forwarded directly instead of always through HA in the case
both MNs are attached to the same FA?  Should this be switching
implementation dependant?  I guess is the behaviour a MUST or SHOULD?

To: MOBILE-IP@STANDARDS.NORTELNETWORKS.COM
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hello Mobilers

A quick and a small question from the novices.

Do we have any figures with regards to the performance
of routers when Mobile IP support is enabled ?

The figures could be even in terms of percentage.
For example, if a normal router has a throughput of
X without Mobile IP support, what is its performance
after enabling Mobile IP support ?

Eagerly awaiting a quick response to quench our thirst for
these figures !

Thanx and Regards

Kevin

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IP Routing for Wireless/Mobile Hosts Working Group of the IETF.

        Title           : Mobile IP Vendor/Organization-Specific Extensions
        Author(s)       : G. Dommety, K. Leung
        Filename        : draft-ietf-mobileip-vendor-ext-07.txt
        Pages           : 4
        Date            : 10-Jan-00

This  document proposes   two   new    extensions   to   Mobile
IP [1]. These extensions will facilitate equipment vendors and
organizations to make specific use  of these extensions as they see
fit for research or deployment purposes.

        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.

Agreed.  It might be useful for a FA to do a unicast ARP in case its
current ARP-table entry were timing out.  Or, maybe not.  Should I
delete the sentences?

I'll try to find a place to put this.  Do you have a suggestion?

Hello,

Charlie's opinions prefixed CharlieP>

My response prefixed RN>

CharlieP> I do not support the mandatory conformance
of all future Mobile IP extensions to the format
illustrated in MIER.  There may other requirements
that we don't know about yet.

RN>We do not find technical rationale in the argument
above. A simple way to ensure that future requirements
are taken care of is to have reserved bits which you
did not support. We have asked this several times
before ...can you illustrate any future requirements
that MIER format would preclude ? How much more
simple can an inclusion of subtypes get.

CharlieP> Furthermore, there might be extensions that
don't need subtypes.

RN>well!... Perhaps this was the thought when the
extensions were originally designed...
There might well be extensions that just need no
subtypes _for now_...but MIER gives you the
flexibility to add subtypes.

CharlieP> I have not talked to _anyone_, outside the
authors of the MIER draft, who supports the mandatory
conformance of all future extensions to the MIER
format, and I have talked to more than ne person who
agrees with me that such conformance should not be
mandated.

RN> The WG mailing is established for the _very_
purpose of articulating positions. We need to
encourage all who have an opinion to share with the
mailing group _directly_.

Could you please clarify why it is not possible to optimise the forwarding
when two communicating MNs are connected to the same FA (or GFA)? If you
use smooth handoffs (or fast handoffs in the case of HFAs) then if the MN
moves to another site there should be no problem. Also, what is the
problem of getting the HA out of the loop?

Regards,
Karim

        [MK>]  Sending a unicast ARP request contradicts with the original
definition of ARP request message where the destination address should be a
broadcast address (RFC826). Sending a unicast ARP request will require the
implementers to do some changes for the ARP module which might not be
desirable.

Hello Karim,

Suppose two nodes are in the same area, so that they could
do as you suggest.  The problem comes when one of them moves,
there is no way for all the other nodes to find out that
their ARP caches are now stale.  Since the ARP request was
(presumably) broadcast, all the other nodes that were in
communication with the node in question would have acquired
a new (and eventually incorrect) layer-2 address for the
mobile node.


Regards,
Charlie P.

The MIER draft (draft-ietf-mobileip-mier-00.txt) states that all new
extensions defined for Mobile IP in the future MUST follow the
template that is specified in the document.
The difference from the existing definition specified in RFC2002 is
that adds a subtype field and the length field is increased two
octets.

If you have concerns or disagree with this proposal, please express it
on the mailing list by the end of this week.

                      Email: elloyd@udel.edu

       Workshop URL : http://www.cis.udel.edu/~elloyd/dialm.d/home.html

SCOPE:

  Mobile computing and communications devices such as portable phones,
laptops and palmtops will have an enormous impact on our lifestyle over
the next several decades. The introduction of mobility raises a number
of new research issues. This workshop is devoted to discrete algorithms
and methods in the context of mobile and wireless computing and
communications. The workshop is intended to serve as a forum for open
discussions and lively debate, and to foster cooperation among
practitioners and theoreticians. The workshop encourages submission of
papers based on work-in-progress. Proposals for panels designed to
generate lively discussions are also invited.

  Contributions are solicited in all areas related to mobile computing and
communications where discrete algorithms and methods are utilized,
including, but not limited to:

    distributed algorithms     frequency allocation
    scheduling                 location tracking
    site allocation            multihop packet radio networks
    wireless networks          synchronization
    cryptography and security  error correcting codes
    handover (handoff)         telecommunications
    modeling                   optimization
    routing                    satellite communication

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:

   All paper submissions and panel proposals will be handled
electronically. Authors should e-mail a PostScript version of their full
paper to elloyd@udel.edu. The font size should be at least 10 pt. The
paper should not be longer than 10 single spaced pages using a standard
10point font. Panel proposals may be submitted in ASCII or PostScript
format. A panel proposal should include panel topic, sample questions
the panel would address, and proposed panel members and moderator.

   Since deadlines overlap, dual submission of papers to MobiCom and DIALM
is encouraged.  Any paper accepted for MobiCom will automatically be
removed from consideration for DIALM.

   To ensure that the PostScript versions of the papers can be
printed, use PostScript version 2 or later. Also ensure that the paper
fits on "US Letter" size paper (8.5X11 inches). Reference only standard
Adobe printer fonts (i.e., Courier, Times, Roman, or Helvetica); other
fonts may be used but must be included in the PostScript file.

   Authors will receive a short email ack of their submission within two
days of submission.  If this is not received, the authors should contact
the Program Chair immediately. Authors should separately email the
title, authors, mailing address, and abstract to elloyd@udel.edu.

IMPORTANT DATES:

    Submissions due        :  April 25, 2000
    Acceptance notification:  May 15, 2000
    Final paper due        :  June 1, 2000

I do have some serious concerns about such a statement. It isn't clear
that we are really running out of extensions at the moment, and although
I agree that we will someday, requiring this for ALL future extensions
MAY be self-defeating. There are many extensions that are unique in
nature, and are not necessarily subject to being "grouped" in a MIER
approach.

Right. Actually I'm not for ARPing the MN. All I was saying was ARPing would
not work with unicast. I agree the right way to extract the MAC address would
be to get it from the packets recevied from the MN.

Well it's. It's free route optimization with side effects. Without somebody
doing a clean up after MN moves to some other foreign link, this is going to
cause interruption to some of the communication.

I have to go back and read fast handoff mechanism, but if it's doing clean up (arp tables) after MN moves to some other foreign link, then there's no problem.
But if it doesn't, it disturbs the routing.

Also, in the case of using overlapped private addresses and FA located CoA, how
does this kind of route optimization work? (sorry if this is already discussed)

HA might be collecting statistics on traffic to the MN, which you would
assume will go through HA without explicit route optimization methods. The
values would come out low, because of the 'side effect' route optimization.

Doesn't this break the compatibility with RFC 2002 compliant
implementations completely as far as new skippable extensions are
concerned? The two octet length field could be used in non-skippable
extensions as they should cause the whole message to be silently
discarded (if the receiver does not recognize them), but I didn't see
that kind of requirement in the draft.

This would mean that all the new extensions (even skippable) would be
required to use the proposed extension format. An old implementation
not knowing of the MIER draft would be unable to parse the extensions
as the length field would be in a different place and of different
size. So messages with a new _skippable_ extension would be dropped.

Is this kind of compatibility breaking approach all right? Are we
trying to make a need for some complicated method of finding out
whether each MN, FA, and HA on the path support MIER before an agent
could send any new skippable extensions? Or should the agent try once
and after some time try again without the MIER type extension? I'm not
welcoming this kind of complexity. It would be easier to change the
extension format in RFC 2002bis and forget about the compatibility,
but I don't think it is acceptable to break the compatibility this way
with RFC 2002.

I do, however, think, that subtyping of extensions would be a good
thing. Subtyping can be done with one byte length field in the
original place for the skippable extensions so that the compatibility
is maintained. In addition, I don't see any good enough reason for
requiring that every new extension must use subtyping.

I disagree with the proposal, for the following reasons.

Let me view types and subtypes as a means of multiplexing a control channel.
Adding a subtype field to the type field of Mobile IP has two effects.
First, there are more bits,
hence more channels can be multiplexed.
Second, these bits are partitioned in two groups,
hence implementations may use a two-layer nesting of switches (if-statements).
Neither from the discussion in this mailing list
nor from the extensive tests we carried out with current Mobile IP
can I conclude that Mobile IP needs more channels
or a two-layer arrangement of these channels.

Though this should suffice as a justification (I think that
the necessity of adding something should be proved,
not the necessity of not adding it),
I'd like to repeat some known arguments with which I agree.
First, existing software would have to be re-implemented.
Second, existing proposals for protocol extensions would have to be re-worked.
Third, there is some chance that future proposals are hard to fit
into the MIER format, anyhow.
Fourth, having more bits for the type field might entail
the temptation to overburden Mobile IP.

Hi Charlie and Alper

Thanks for the explanation.
So the main problem is the arp cache of other hosts on the same FA,
in the case when the MN moves. Cutting the HA out of the loop brings
advantage and disadvantage (as Alper pointed out), so I would imagine
this depends on whether you are collecting statistics on the HA.
However it is surely good to optimise forwarding in cases where
there are few FAs (maybe even one) and you need to limit latency.

When the MN moves, say it does a smooth handoff such that the "old" FA
is notified. Could that trigger the "old" FA to clean up the arp problem
with a gratuitous arp? A similar cleanup is for HFAs using Fast Handoffs.

Also, applied to 3G networks you don't have the same restraints,
so it would be good to leave this possibility open unless you see
other major difficulties.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IP Routing for Wireless/Mobile Hosts Working Group of the IETF.

        Title           : Mobile IP Vendor/Organization-Specific Extensions
        Author(s)       : G. Dommety, K. Leung
        Filename        : draft-ietf-mobileip-vendor-ext-08.txt
        Pages           : 4
        Date            : 11-Jan-00

This  document proposes   two   new    extensions   to   Mobile
IP [1]. These extensions will facilitate equipment vendors and
organizations to make specific use  of these extensions as they see
fit for research or deployment purposes.

I do not think we should require all new extensions to follow the MIER
format.  MIER might not be appropriate for all situations and could
unnecessarily slow down current standards efforts.  New extension
proposals should follow the MIER format if and when appropriate.

This is clearly a problem.  I already pointed this out several times, e.g.

There is no guarantee that all implementors have followed this systematic way.
The (current) RFC does not say anything about that.
Imagine someone optimizing his/her code by masking the type field,
i.e. going to the very bits!

Again, this is an implementation issue and, perhaps, can also be
solved by some clever masking. Note that the type-subtype field separation
hinders flexible use of all bits in the field
(compare the role of subnet masking of IP addresses in routing!).

You are right: It may happen that, when considering to incorporate MIER,
some implementors will not feel forced to completely re-implement.

I'm very sorry - YOU should prove that all future proposals fit to MIER,
and not me that there is some which does not. See my previous note.

This was meant similarly to the well-known programming experience:
Not always does an abundance of resources (here: bits to represent types)
lead to better (seen from the user) programs.

Hoping not to annoy the other readers of this mailing  list,

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IP Routing for Wireless/Mobile Hosts Working Group of the IETF.

        Title           : Cellular IP
        Author(s)       : A. Campbell,  J. Gomez,  C. Wan,  S. Kim,
                          Z. Turanyi,   A. Valko,

        Pages           : 22
        Date            : 12-Jan-00

This document specifies a protocol that allows routing IP datagrams
to a mobile host.  The protocol is intended to provide local mobility
and handoff support.  It can interwork with Mobile IP [1] to provide
wide area mobility support.  Four fundamental design principles of
the protocol are: (1) location information is stored in distributed
data bases (2) location information referring to a mobile host is
created and updated by regular IP datagrams originated by the said
mobile host (3) location information is stored as soft state (4)
location management for idle mobile hosts is separated from location
management of hosts that are actively transmitting or receiving data.

This draft is a work item of the IP Routing for Wireless/Mobile Hosts Working Group of the IETF.

        Title           : Mobile IP Network Access Identifier Extension for IPv4

        Filename        : draft-ietf-mobileip-mn-nai-07.txt

AAA servers are in use within the Internet today to provide
authentication and authorization services for dial-up computers.
Such services are likely to be equally valuable for mobile nodes
using Mobile IP when the nodes are attempting to connect to foreign
domains with AAA servers.  AAA servers today identify clients by
using the Network Access Identifier (NAI). Our proposal defines a way
for the mobile node to identify itself, by including the NAI along
with the Mobile IP Registration Request.  This draft also updates
RFC2290 which specifies the Mobile-IPv4 Configuration option for
IPCP, by allowing the Mobile Node's Home Address field of this option
to be zero.

        [MK>]   Your point of view is completely valid, and i think your
suggestion about having another template  for skippable extension where the
location of the length field is preserved  is a good suggestion and will be
taken in consideration in the next version of this draft. Once again, thanks
for your constructive comments.

        Your proposal  is very similar to  Jouni proposal.  We will take
that in consideration in next revision.

Subject:      [MOBILE-IP] Reverse tunnels, bcast packets and RFC2002bis
To: MOBILE-IP@STANDARDS.NORTELNETWORKS.COM

Hi.

Reading both RFC2344 and RFC2002(bis) I found no reference to what a
multi-homed HA should do with packets addressed to itself, i.e. coming from
a reverse tunnel from a registered client, with the inner destination
address set to broadcast.

I guess the logic would be that, after having passed all the security
checks specified in 4.3.2 of RFC2344, the HA should inject the broadcast
packet only on the interface that is on the home-net of the client.

I was wondering if a clarification on this point should be put in
RFC2002bis.

Thanks
Luca

Dear gentle folk,

as part of our studies into how to apply Internet technology
we put together a prototype Mobile Router system for a
demonstration. A Mobile Router is a system with more
than one interface which does IP forwarding between its
interfaces and runs Mobile Node software. A Mobile Router
is a useful device if you want a mobile network on, for
instance, a ship or a train. The Mobile Router is entirely
consistent with RFC2002, where a Mobile Node is defined
as a "host or a router". There is nothing about a Mobile
Router which deviates from the IETF standards.

The Mobile Router prototype was made by modifying the
Mobile IP implementation which Sun make publicly available
in source code form for compiling under Solaris and Linux.

We have compiled a list of detailed hints showing most
of the changes that were necessary to get the Mobile Router
working. The hints are for the Solaris base but are largely
applicable to the Linux base. These hints are available from
myself on request.

Please send an email to me if you want them. You should be
aware that they come with no warranty (express or implied)
and no support. We are not liable in any way for any
consequences of the use or non use of the hints. You are
on your own. Have a nice day!

Chairs and WG,

James Kempf and I submitted a draft a couple of weeks ago, which would
extend Mobile IP to further reduce the latency involved in the hand-off.
This seems really important given the number of threads recently that
pertain to IP in cellular networks, and the need for a low latency
hand-off.

The question I have for the WG is whether this draft should be
considered a WG work item.

All,

I really don't see this as a requirement, since it is really an implementation
issue. isn't it?

The problem I see with the proposal below is that it assumes that the mobility
entities have a pre-configured security association. In the "unnecessary and
inneffient" (as you call it) proposal, the AAAH generates the keying
information. If we decide to split, which MUST be optional, the process,
and allow the procedures to occur serially, then the AAAH can STILL create
the keying information, but it would require additional round trips over
the 'net.

If the we opt for parallel, then either ALL of the mobility entities have a
pre-configured security association, which would rule out dynamic home agent
allocation (which is a requirement), or require some third party security
mechanism, such as IP security (which requires MANY round trips over the 'net).

So, how is your proposal more efficient?

To me, implementation issue is not the same as a policy issue. Policy
based decision is more flexible.

I can see two extreme scenarios:

1. We leave the grace period issue entirely as an implementation choice
and  future implementations fail in interops or at least fail to provide
fast "session" initialization times e.g. for VoIP calls.

2. We require a possibility to allow the grace period with configuration
or policy management and the future implementations are more
configurable and allow faster access initialization.

I do not see any possible implementational problem with this idea of
allowing the grace period.

One can ask, why should we not require the possibility to allow the
grace period?

One can _also_ ask why should we. I say we should, because the Internet
access initialization would be faster that way and there would be one
item less to confuse the implementors.

         Tom

Yes, you are right.
We could also make the signaling go through the HA up to the AAAH, but
this would then slow down the process.

What about setting this to optional, and if there was no shared secret
(e.g. in dynamic HA allocation), we'd act according to the (possibly)
slower mode?

Sorry, I did not mean to insult. I meant it seems inefficient to me. I
may be wrong, but I'd like to have good justifications for why the
sequential model is more efficient. If it is not, then it would be
unnecessary at least for those who have a shared secret, but possibly
useful for those without it.

It is more efficient at least for those who have a SA with their HA,
because it allows the MN to start using the 'net while the AAA process
is still unfinished.
Any counter arguments?
It might be more efficient even for those who need a dynamics HA
allocation, since also that could be separated from the registration, as
follows:

- Allocation of a HA in a foreign domain

The idea is from Patrik Flykt.
I modified the message sequencies a little bit.
Letters I changed appear with asterisks:


             *d.*             c.
     +----+ <---- +------+ --------> +------+
     | HA |  f.   | FAAA |           | HAAA |
     +----+ ----> +------+ <-------- +------+
            <-----   ^ |        *e.*
                i.   | |g.
                     | |
                   b.| |
             a.      | V
     +----+ -----> +----+
     | MN |   *h.* | FA |
     +----+ <----- +----+

Explanation:

- (*.d*) Is a request to the allocated HA BEFORE an ack is coming from
the HAAA.
Speeds up, but adds signals, if the reply from the HAAA (*e.*) is a
DENIAL.

- As soons as (*e.*) arrives, send it to FA in (g.). Speeds up, too.

- The new (i.) Is only needed if (*e.*) was a DENIAL.

- The (*h.*) is sent to the MN before the (i.) to speed up latency of
the handoff handling.

My observations:
- The message order is radical.
- The scheme is based on the assumption that HAAA normally accepts the
MN.
- I assume the core network and HA are fast, and sending/processing a
couple of extra messages is allowed in DENIAL cases.
- This should speed up the process in situations where the MN ia
correctly authorized, since the HA would be dynamically allocated
already when the (*e.*) arrives.
- In situations where AAAH is not needed, the sequential mode and the
parallel mode reduce to one and the same.

The AAAH MUST somehow be contacted, in order to get some reassurances that
the AAAH is willing to pay for the services rendered. The AAAF will expect
to get this before it provides services.

hmmm... I would state that shared secrets in an inter-domain mobility network
would be the rule, not the exception. It seems as if you are targetting
lan mobility, and the cellular carriers that I've talked to need roaming.

It wasn't taken as an insult, but it was simply your viewpoint, not the WGs.

I still haven't heard back from many carriers that state that they would provide
free services. In fact, all I've heard are comments from carriers against
the grace period.

>Any counter arguments?

Well, expecting all devices to have a pre-configured shared secret doesn't
scale. What other argument do we need? Perhaps I am missing something fundamental
here, but I don't see the problem. In our proposals, we aren't requiring that
the AAA infrastructure process, or parse, the Registration Requests, they are
considered blobs. So, how is a single internet round trip ineffient? Your
proposal requires additional latency (two round trips), free services,
unmanageable security relationships, and cannot support dynamic home agents.

How did you select the home agent. How do you know if the home agent
needs to be allocated in the local, or the foreign domain? This information
would come from the AAAH.

so how do you support dynamic home agent (local or foreign) when using
a parallel approach? Perhaps I missed it, but I don't see it.

This is the point. You say the AAAF needs the info before, and some
others say it should be a policy issue whether the AAA authentication
reply should come from the AAAH before the access is granted.

Let's vote. What do other people think about this grace period issue? We
already have some opinions, but I'd like to see some more.

I did not target to any specific mobility scheme. It may be that the
cellular carriers need the dynamic HA allocation more to get rid of
configuration tasks.

o If we have a shared secret between HA and MN and we use a static HA,
then the parallel mode works well, right? This might be the situation
for corporate roaming workforce.

o If we have a dynamic HA allocation, then we'd have to get the decision
from the AAAH first, as you said. I did not take into account that also
the Home Network might want to assign the HA dynamically.

Hmm. Visit Finland some time. Telia just starts providing Internet
access for free, and there has been a smaller operator called NIC that
has done that for a longer time. :-)
Also professor Arto Karila from HUT stated last summer that it will be
most probable that there will be much more free access providers by the
end of the year here in Finland.
The story is available in Finnish at:

All the devices meaning all the Mobile Nodes and their HAs. Well, that
can be a one time issue like the similar actions for a cellular phone.
Also the phones have their HLR and it does not bring too much
scalability problems, does it? ;)

The problem is the AAA processing time and the most probably longer
round trip time through the path of AAA servers, proxies, brokers, ets.
than through plain Internet (direct FA <--> HA).

I admit that the sequential proposal has less messages. The overhead the
parallel mode would bring is the couple of octets in the additional
headers plus some processing time in the routers. Then again, the
sequential mode packets might get fragmented due to their possibly large
size thus ending up to almost the same amount of transferred data and
used router processor time...

The key question is: "How we measure efficiency"
with:
        - Number of messages
        - Latency for the session initialization
        - Handoff latency
        - Administratvie burden
        - Accuracy of billing
        - Amount of sent data


I can see there some contradictory elements. That is why I am for a
definition that allows both modes.

If the free service really IS a problem. And additional countermeasures
may be started in a case of misuse. Of course, this would need some
elaborate software which would make the solution slightly more complex.
But what wouldn't one do for a faster access. ;)

I would assume that most corporate networks would be reluctant to provide
access to a mobile without prior authentication. I know that my company's
MIS (IT) is quite strict about security. Perhaps some networks are more
lax in their security requirements.

Perhaps finland is a special case. I wish that we had free access here in the

well, we aren't designing the system around HLR and VLRs, right? Since we
KNOW that this will be run over the Internet, some security is required
between the FA (VLR) and the HA (HLR). Further, some security is required
between the MN (MS) and the FA. The scalability problem doesn't come from
the MN-HA, but rather from the MN-FA and the FA-HA. This is especially
problematic in an inter-domain network.

Well, given that this typically ONLY occurs when then MS is turned on, I fail
to see the problem. One could easily argue that the processing power on the
AAA servers could be such that the Internet bandwidth becomes the issue, and
here more traversals over the 'net would be a problem.

I think this is a red herring. The number of registration requests that
will result in a check with the AAA infrastructure is so low that I have a
hard time accepting that as a counter-argument. To date, I have never
seen a registration request exceed 800 bytes, even with all of the fluff
that we've been adding to Mobile IP recently.

Furthermore, the more messages there are on the internet, the higher the
possiblity for packet drops, and the need for retransmission.

I won't argue in supporting both, but I am not sure how popular the
parallel method will be. Also, the more we support, the more code I need
to write, and some people may have issues with that.

Just to re-iterate (and make sure that we agree), the AAA involvement is
ONLY performed when the MN is started. The AAA infrastructure is also
checked when keys expire, but this can be done sufficiently in advance as
to not affect access.

    Perhaps finland is a special case. I wish that we had free access here in the
    US :)

I think access providers are finding that with bandwidth costing less
and less, with increasing numbers of hot spots (which are paid for by
the users regularily in these sites -- generally for a contracted
price), ... that doing the accounting/billing/... to squeeze every
last $/SEK/FIM/... out of users is not good economics.

  a. Consider that the transit systems in a number of cities don't
     have turnstiles -- but rather have patrols which spot check that the
     riders have paid. The operator saves all the capital costs of the
     turnstiles, the maintenance personnel required to keep them working,
     the lost revenue when they don't work properly, ... -- and trades this
     off for some lost revenue due to people riding who did not pay.

  b. Consider that most major credit card companies have a certain
     fraction of fraudulant transactions. They have learned that it is
     not economical to decrease this below a certain rate (as the costs
     to do so is greater than the loss of not doing so).

In the case of cellular, Telia offers large customers the ability to
have a site specific GSM service for which the customer pays a flat
price per user. Thus there is no per call billing for all calls from
these users in this specific area. The operator can easily calculated
what the contract price for an N year period should be to provide this
service for Y users. The customer periodically tells the operator who
these Y users are to be. The result is wireless voice access for less
cost (for the N years) that putting up a campus based cordless phone
system.

As Tom righly points out: the penalty for not allowing the grace period
is a reduction in performance of the handover -- even for those who
are paying!

Dear Ron,

good morning and how are you?

I sent out a message about some work I was doing to the
Mobile IP mailing list on mobile routers yesterday and
received a reply from about fifteen people who are
interested in this topic. I feel that it would be helpful
to have a mailing list to discuss issues connected
with mobile routers and implementation issues, and that
probably the Mobile IP mailing list is not the right
forum as this is a topic for a subset of members rather
than being of interest to all.

As Nortel are hosting the Mobile IP mailing list I am
asking you whether you would also host a mobile-routers
mailing list for discussion of mobile router issues.

Please could you give me a yes/no quite soon as otherwise
I will set up an egroups mailing list - I wish to strike
whilst the iron is hot, as one might say.


Cheers,

Rob Goode

This is where I am missing something. The *serial* and combined proposals
do not necessarily require that the AAA infrastructure. In fact, unless
an inter-domain hand-off is done, the AAA infrastructure is only contacted
when the keys are about to expire, and this can be arranged as to not interfere
with a hand-off.

So, what is your point?

With lots of local cells operated by/for the specific
location/organization - there will be lots of inter-domain handoffs.
Just think of what happens when I walk down the street in Kista where
every building has a wireless LAN, but every other building is a
different domain - most would probably be willing to take my traffic
IFF when they walk into/by my building I will do the same. But as
these are different domains the AAA mechanism will be invoked for each
handoff.

All,

This is the second request for anyone interested in the next Mobile IP and
DIAMETER bake-off. Note that you do not need both to participate. This time
around, the bake-off is held at the connect-a-thon, which is must better
organized than the previous bake-off. More information can be found at
www.connectathon.org.

As previous discussed, the Mobile IP tests will include:
        - Mobile IP v4 (bis)
        - mobile IP challenge/Response Extension
        - Mobile IP NAI extension
        - Vendor Specific extension
        - Mobile IP Extensions Rationalization (MIER)
        - MN AAA Keys (which is about to be a WG work item)

As for DIAMETER, the following will be tested:
        - Base Protocol
        - Accounting Extension
        - Mobile IP Extension
        - Strong Security

Of course, each implementation does not have to have all of the above
in order to participate. Ideally, if we have at least two of each of the
above, we could get the WG draft moving along quicker.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IP Routing for Wireless/Mobile Hosts Working Group of the IETF.

        Title           : Mobile IP Based  Micro Mobility Management Protocol in
                          The Third Generation Wireless Network
        Author(s)       : Y. Xu, R. Bhalla et.al
        Filename        : draft-ietf-mobileip-3gwireless-ext-02.txt
        Pages           : 15
        Date            : 19-Jan-00

This document defines extensions to the Mobile IP protocol [1] to
allow mobility management for the interface between a radio network
and a packet data network in the third generation cdma2000 network.
Mobile IP requires link layer connectivity between the Mobile Node
and the Foreign Agent. This draft proposes a protocol for achieving
this when the physical layer terminating at a point distant from the
FA. In particular, this protocol applies to cdma2000 networks where
the physical layer terminates at a Radio Network Node (RNN) and the
FA resides inside a separate Packet Data Serving Node (PDSN). The
PDSN is responsible for establishing, maintaining, and terminating
the link layer to the Mobile Node. A RNN is responsible for relaying
the link layer protocol between a Mobile Node and its corresponding
PDSN.
The interface between the RNN and the PDSN is called the RP
interface. This interface requires mobility management for handling
handoff from one RNN to another without interrupting end to end
communication. It also requires the support of the link layer
protocol encapsulation.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IP Routing for Wireless/Mobile Hosts Working Group of the IETF.

        Title           : Mobile IP Extensions Rationalization (MIER)
        Author(s)       : M. Khalil, R. Narayanan,  H. Akhtar,  E. Qaddoura

        Date            : 19-Jan-00

It is in the interest of the Mobile IP WG to conserve the
usage of the type field since we see many drafts proposing
new extensions for Mobile IP. Therefore there is a real
need to find ways to limit the usage of the type field in the
extensions structure. MIER describes a new extension
structure to Mobile IP to make the extensions far more
extensible.

Pat,

Before the WG can take this document as a WG item we need to spur more
discussion and interest in it. With that in mind I would suggest that
we hold on to making a decision if it should be a WG document until
after Adelaide.

I would encourage WG members to provide comments and feedback on this
draft through the discussion list in the interim period.

Based on the opinions received from the (active) WG members on the
issue of the MIER draft (draft-ietf-mobileip-mier-00.txt), the
consensus is:

- there is a strong disagreement to mandate the template proposed in
  this draft as the one that MUST be followed by all new extensions.

The draft will need to undergo revisions to comply with the WG
sentiments.

Rob,

Mobile IP covers both mobile nodes as well as mobile
routers. I believe you have raised this point earlier at the time when
we were doing the new charter for this WG. Discussion on this topic is
very much part of the charter. I am sure there are many of us on this
list who are just as interested in this topic (maybe not apparent). So
I would argue against going off and creating a separate mailing list
to deal with this topic.

Regards,

-Basavaraj

        Hello,

>so how do you support dynamic home agent (local or foreign) when using
>a parallel approach?

Being able to support a parallel approach means that the address of the home
agent is known to the mobile node, or the mobile node is doing an dynamic
home agent discovery, otherwise there wouldn't be anywhere to send the
registration request to. Yes, then we need pre-shared secrets with our home
agent. Why not allow pre-shared authenticators, since one has to configure
the home agent's address anyway ?

With the sequential approach dynamic home agent allocation becomes possible,
this is a desired feature in many networks. Unfortunately, with the
sequential approach it becomes impossible to split the MIP registration and
the access authorization. With the parallel approach one could pay for or
authorize the access by some means, e.g. a credit card (/whatever) company,
and acquire connectivity through the MIP protocol. The authorizing company
need necessarily not be interested in which protocol you are using when
accessing the IP network.

It is important to support both the serial and the parallel approach since
this gives MIP a lot of flexibility, one can allocate a home address and a
home agent dynamically and split up the authorization from the acces
protocol when needed.


Regards,

        Patrik

Dear Basavaraj,

my comments are below. I leave it to you whether we have
another mailing list or not.

I fully agree with you that the Mobile IP WG charter covers
mobile routers as well as mobile hosts, and yes it was me
who was arguing for that when the charter was last revised.

I fully agree that mobile routers are a valid topic for
discussion on the mobile ip mailing list.

What I was trying to say (but obviously failed to make clear)
was that implementation issues of interest to a small number of
people trying to get a mobile router running in their lab
was probably not of interest to all the 1202 people on the
mobile ip mailing list, and that this seemed worth setting up
a new mailing list for. I was thinking there may be some
discussion on the mobile router hints I have sent out, and
that may grow to discuss changes to other source codes available
for implementing mobile ip. I suppose I should have said
a "mr-implementors" mailing list.

What I propose then is that you as the WG chair are the
appropriate person to arrange an additional mailing list if
you deem it useful. If you deem it better to have it on
the mobile ip mailing list then that is fine with me, of
course there may not be any mobile router discussions in
which case the point is moot. For now then, all discussions
are on the mobile ip mailing list and there is no other
list.

Cheers,

Rob Goode

Why should there be a separate mailing list for nodes that only supports a
subset of mobile ip i.e correspondent node and home agent functionality =
"mobile router"....?

I simply dont understand that..?

There is good events like the upcoming Conectathon 2000 that SUN is hosting
to test mobile ip implementations against eachother.

I'm quite sure that if you only want to test your correspondent node and
home agent functionality that you are welcome ther to test it.

If you mean a mobile router in a handset where you have a ad-hoc network
(like blutooth on one side) and a mobile ip network on the other side then
it is discussed within the MANET WG...

A "mobile router" is a term that I am using to mean a RFC 2002 Mobile Node
implementation which is on a platform that has two or more interfaces
and can do IP forwarding between them. One or more of the interfaces
run the mobile IP protocol, and one or more interfaces do not run
the mobile IP protocol. I think that this use of the term is correct
within the Mobile IP community, but the term "mobile router" certainly
has other meanings in other communities. The utility of a mobile router
is to act as the gateway to a mobile network, by which I mean a
network (usually a LAN) which changes its point of attachment to an
Internet or Intranet, thereby causing itself to be unroutable unless
some mechanism (routing table updates, Mobile IP, DNS updates, Manet,
cellular IP etc.) is used. An example I am thinking of is a ship with
an onboard network which uses different bearer networks (radio, satellite,
pierside cables etc.) to reach an Intranet. I rather think that a
mobile router is a useful architectural building block for real world
networks - but I may be wrong.

Mobile routers are part of RFC2002, and are described in the "textbooks"
by Charles. E. Perkins and Jim Soloman.

Did I help clarify the term mobile router? The reason I was proposing an
additional list was to discuss the implementation details of particular
instantiations, e.g. what command line switches do I use? Why did it
core dump? what does this compiler error mean? ...those sort of
things. Basavaraj can decide.

For architectural discussions of mobile routers and everything else
derived from RFC2002 then the mobile ip mailing list is the right
place.

My apologies for the confusion caused.

Rob,

I guess we could create another discussion list specifically for
discussion of Mobile Router implementations and the issues
associated. The 1202 people on this list may actually appreciate not
receiving mail that they are not very keen on. I will go ahead and ask
Ron Young to create this discussion list and let you know when it is
done. You could announce the creation and subscription info on the
Mobile IP mailing list once it's done.

Regards,
-Basavaraj

Subject:      [MOBILE-IP] challenge / response; MN auth timeout
To: MOBILE-IP@STANDARDS.NORTELNETWORKS.COM
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
X-MIME-Autoconverted: from quoted-printable to 8bit by ietf.org id UAA20057

Hi all,

(when I write SA below, I mean the security association between the MN and the FA)

I have some comments in the challenge response draft about which auth extension to include in the Reg Request from the MN.
In chapter 3.1 of the draft there is a lot about "if the mobile node does not have a security association with the FA...." and "if the mobile node has a security association with the FA...." in order to decide which auth extension to include in the Reg Request.
My concern is how the MN does know if it has a VALID security association. I think this is a more appropriate question than if it just do have a SA or not. A security association that is not valid will be rejected by the FA anyway.

The FA knows if the SA is valid or not, since it received a timeout together with the SA from the AAA. The problem seams to be that the FA can not forward this timeout to the MN.

I am aware that there is a proposal in the draft about MobileIP Diameter Requirements that says that the timeout for the keys must be an integer multiple of the registration lifetime offered by the FA to the MN. But I don't see how this solves the problem, since (a) the HA can give the MN an other lifetime than the one offered by the FA and (b) all we know from rfc2002 is that the MN will re-register when the lifetime is near to expire. (not _exactly_ when it re-registers)


As I see it, there are four different ways to solve this (someone can probably come up with another one)
1) Add an extension to the Reg Reply to let the FA forward the SA timeout to the MN. This will make it possible for the MN to include the correct auth extension in the following Reg Requests. However, more extensions means larger messages to the MN which, in a cellular environment, are connected over an air interface.
2) Include a "SA lifetime" in the session key extensions in the AAA Keys draft (draft-calhoun-mobileip-aaa-key-00.txt). By including the information in an existing extension, we will not extend the Reg Reply even more. (they are already quite large)
3) Add a rule for the MN Reg Request procedure. If the MN gets a Reg Reply with code BAD_AUTHENTICATION, the MN SHOULD include the MN-AAA auth in the next Reg Request. This will mean some extra delay, since the first Reg Request will be rejected.
4) Both the MN-FA and the MN-AAA auth extension is included in the RegRequest. Then the FA can take the correct action since it kows if the SA are valid or not. The draft does not exclude this today. To include both keys is also mentioned in the MN AAA Keys draft. However, this means more processing for the MN and that there always will be one auth extension in the RegRequest that is not used. To me, that doesn't sound good from a security point of view...

If we don't specify a solution to this, we can end up in a deadlock situation where the MN tries to register with the (invalid) SA which always will be rejected by the FA.

Personally I'm in favor of option 2, alternatively option 1, with option 3 as "backup".
However, including the timeout in the AAA key extensions will result in changes to another draft, which might have impact on the challenge response draft last call procedure.
My suggestion is that we include the timeout in the AAA Keys draft (option 2) and add the extra rule for the MN (option 3) as optional (SHOULD) in the draft. 



Regards,

        --> Tomas

 Your proposal may improve the protocol.  But, there is another way,
 although it's similar to your option 3:

 An MN can get a hint of the FA key expiration.  Because, the life time,
 which an MN received in the last registration reply before the FA key
 expiration, ends at the same time when the previous life time will expire.
 Thus, the MN can send another registration request to the FA with a Mobile
 Node NAI extension and a MN-AAA authentication extension.

 I agree with you; I also couldn't find the exact description about this
 issue in drafts.  I think, an explicit description will improve the drafts.
 Or, am I missing a draft about this issue ?

Cheers.

Hello Tomas,

>>  ==   Tomas Goldbeck-Löwe

>> My concern is how the MN does know if it has a VALID security association.

I think that your only concern about validity is whether the association
has timed out.  Am I right?

>> The FA knows if the SA is valid or not, since it received a timeout
>> together with the SA from the AAA. The problem seams to be that the FA
>> can not forward this timeout to the MN.

This is not a concern for the FA Challenge draft, since there is
no key distribution specified in that draft.  So, I do not think
that draft should be delayed.  We can independently continue to search
for a resolution to the problem you have raised.

>> I am aware that there is a proposal in the draft about MobileIP Diameter
>> Requirements that says that the timeout for the keys must be an integer
>> multiple of the registration lifetime offered by the FA to the MN.
>> But I don't see how this solves the problem   ...

I agree that the Mobile-IP DIAMETER extensions draft may need to be
reconsidered.  Perhaps it is appropriate to add a lifetime to the
key extensions.

Furthermore, I am currently in the process of revising the
Registration Key draft (draft-ietf-mobileip-regkey-00.txt).
The new draft will feature a Generalized Registration Key Reply
extension.  I think it is appropriate to make the extensions of
the AAA keys draft into subtypes of the generalized extension,
and I expect to write that up soon, unless further discussion
indicates otherwise.

Relevant to this discussion, I would then expect that there
should be _two_ kinds of Generalized Key Reply extensions.
One would have a "lifetime" field, and the other would not.
The current Registration Key draft does not specify any lifetime
for the keys.  Up until now, the thought seems to be that a
Registration Key should be valid until the foreign agent uses
it to make a smooth handover to a new care-of address.

I would very much like to get comments on the advisability of
allowing both variants.  Perhaps Registration Keys should _always_
last for as long as the mobile node continues to reregister the
same care-of address.  Alternatively, perhaps Registration Keys
should _always_ come along with a timeout parameter.  Unless I
hear otherwise, I will continue to allow for both possibilities
with all of the existing key reply extension subtypes.

Some other more minor comments:

I think I substantially agree with this, with the interpretation that
(2) can be managed by adding a lifetime field to the Registration Key
Reply extension as in draft-ietf-mobileip-regkey-00.txt, and that a
key that arrives with no lifetime is good as long as the mobile node
continues to use the same care-of address.

Your suggestion doesn't have to be considered a "rule".  It can
be considered a clarification and a suggested procedure to overcome
a particular failure.  A mobile node could avoid using
the suggested procedure and still interoperate with foreign
agents that perform as specified; the downside would be that
it would not be able to register if it did not make use of
one of its existing security associations (namely, that with
its home AAA server).

I think I can speak for Pat that we will await further comment before
including this clarification into a new Challenge draft.


Regards,
Charlie P.

I think it has always been the intention to allow a security association
between a mobile node and a foreign agent to survive (i.e., last longer
than) individual Mobile IP registration timeouts.  Thus I don't
understand
your comments in the first paragraph above.  Can you say more about the
explicit description that is needed?

Yes, I guess that is another way to say it.
It seams that we agree that the MN need to know if the keys are valid or
not.

I fully agree that the timeout of the keys better belong in the draft
which specifies key distribution. Just as long as the timeout also is
sent to the MN.

I couldn't find the Registration Key draft on the ietf homepage. And the

I'm not really sure that I follow you here.
Do you mean that as long as a MN is registered at the same FA the key is
always valid? And when the MN moves to a new FA, it will get new keys
from the home AAA server. This means that there are no timeout for the
keys, moving means getting new keys.

Agree.
I think my "optional rule" is the same as your "clarification and a

Hello,

I am working away on getting a new revision of RFC 2002 ready
for dissemination.  I remember that many people have asked to
lower the minimum advertisement interval so that multiple advertisements
(beacons) could be sent every second.  I very much support this
step, and there have been several papers published that supply
good technical reasons for doing so.

What is important is for the beacons to occupy negligible bandwidth,
and that depends more on the wireless medium than on restricting
the frequency to once each second.  I would like to respecify the
minimum interval to be 10 milliseconds.  This of course does not
require foreign agents to change their current behavior.  It only
allows for "better" foreign agents in the future, from the point of
view of some new wireless media.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Hello Alper,

Regarding the following text:

> other than the ones arriving to FA on the tunnel configured for this MN.
> This requires forwarding based on not only destination address but also
> incoming interface. Without this, there's the problem of getting HA out

I can't include this, because it would totally break
route optimization.  I did clarify that the foreign agent
MUST NOT advertise routes to the mobile node.

Is there something more that I should say that would not
break route optimization?  The discussion about FAs sending
gratuitous ARPs is interesting, but I can't put that into
RFC 2002bis unless there is more demand for that from more
people in the working group.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Hello again,

I have also been informed that many of the links on my web page are no
longer valid, since the Internet Drafts they point to have been expired.
Most of the expired drafts will be reissued before Adelaide.  In
particular, the existing (expired) Registration Keys draft is being
heavily revised to reflect the MIER philosophy, albeit not with the
exact MIER formats. The previous draft is available at:
        http://www.iprg.nokia.com/~charliep/txt/mobileip/regkey.txt

A newer, unfinished draft is available at:
        http://www.iprg.nokia.com/~charliep/txt/mobileip/regkey.NEW
I expect to put in something for elliptic curves, and a citation for
Pat Calhoun's blob^H^H^H^Hopaque-data-transfer draft.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Hello,

I have finished a new draft, draft-ietf-mobileip-rfc2002-bis-01.txt
and it is available on my web page at:
        http://www.iprg.nokia.com/~charliep/txt/mobileip/mobileip.txt
There are a list of Open Issues in the above draft.  If someone has
answers, I'd appreciate getting e-mail or mailing list discussion about
the issues before I send the draft to the IETF directories.  Or else,
I can just delete the section.  Or, I can leave the section in the
revised draft, and hope that answers become available as the revised
draft goes through Last Call.

Regards,
Charlie P.

 Here is a figure about life times, and so on:

 |-----------------Tsa-----------------------|
                      t-prev                t-expire
                       |--------Tprev--------|

                                  t-req
                                   |--------Treq--------|
                                    t-last
                                   |--Tlast--|

 "Tsa" is a life time about a security association between an MN and
 an FA, also between an MN and an HA.  At t-prev, the MN received the
 previous registration reply from the FA, whose life time is "Tprev".
 Both Tsa and Tprev will expire at "t-expire".
 At "t-req", the MN sends a registration request whose life time is
 "Treq".  Then, the MN receives a registration reply at "t-last", but
 its accepted life time is "Tlast".  Although the MN doesn't know Tsa
 will expire at t-expire, the MN gets a hint about it by that both Tprev
 and Tlast will expire at(or about) t-expire.  By this hint, I think,
 the MN may be able to send a registration request with a Mobile Node
 NAI extension and a MN-AAA authentication extension.

Thanks.
-Yoshi

The expiration of the SA (Tsa) and of the registration lifetime (Tprev)
do not necessarily have to coincide.

I've submitted  draft-petri-mobileip-pipe-00.txt  to the Internet-draft
editor (see message below).

This is an attempt to provide a solution for the use of private IP addresses
within Mobile IP, which was mentioned to be an open issue at the last two
meetings of the Mobile IP group, and was also addressed by some mails on the
list recently.

Unlike Charlie's draft at the Oslo meeting, I've tried to provide a more
generic solution showing how IP-IP tunnels (RFC 2003) could make use of
private IP addresses. Based on that basic solution for IP-IP, it's easy for
Mobile IP to use private IP addresses; this is outlined by an example in the
draft.

Comments welcome.

Kind regards
Bernhard

 The HA or FA knows the SA will expire at t-expire, so, Tprev cannot
 be longer than t-expire - t-prev.  Therefore, logically there is the
 first accepted life time(Tprev), which coincides with the end of Tsa.

 After this happens, all successive acceptable life time will coincide
 with the end of Tsa.

 In practice, I should say these are closely coincided, I think.

Thanks.
-Yoshi

In this you assume that the SA will last only for one MN Registration
lifetime. As Charlie mentioned in a previous email, it is normal to
expect the SA to last many Registration lifetimes. Therefore the MN
must have a way to understand when it is to use the MN-AAA extension
to re-establish the SA (as Tomas pointed out). Please correct me if
I misunderstood your point.

Given these discussions, it may be appropriate for people who are
implementing the Challenge/Response draft if it identified the cases
in which the MN-AAA extension may be used:

- Expiry of SA (regkey lifetime expiry or BAD_AUTHENTICATION)
- Change of COA

Karim

To: MOBILE-IP@STANDARDS.NORTELNETWORKS.COM

The IESG has approved the Internet-Draft 'Mobile IP Network Access
Identifier Extension' <draft-ietf-mobileip-mn-nai-07.txt> as a Proposed
Standard.  This document is the product of the IP Routing for
Wireless/Mobile Hosts Working Group.  The IESG contact persons are
David Oran and Rob Coltun.



Technical Summary

   AAA servers are in use within the Internet today to provide
   authentication and authorization services for dial-up and
   roaming computers. Such services are likely to be equally
   valuable for mobile nodes using Mobile IP when the nodes are
   attempting to connect to foreign domains with AAA servers.
   AAA servers today identify clients by using the Network Access
   Identifier (NAI).

   This specification defines a way for the mobile node to identify
   itself to the AAA server of the the foreign domain by including
   the NAI along with the Mobile IP Registration Request it sends to
   the foreign agent of the domain. Additionally, it allows a mobile
   node to authenticate itself despite not having a permanently-assigned
   IP address.

Working Group Summary

   There was no dissent on the technical approach taken.

   There was some controversy concerning the inclusion of example scenarios
   employing the DIAMETER AAA protocol, on which consensus has not been
   reached in the AAA working group. Those examples have been removed.

   The protocol was originally last-called for Experimental status.
   At IETF-46 the WG met and there was strong consensus that the protocol
   should instead be standards track. After discussion with the
   Area Directors, the specification was deemed mature and solid enough
   to progress to proposed standard.

Protocol Quality

   At the last bakeoff/interop testing held in July '99 in San Jose
   there were four implementation of MN-NAI. These implementations were
   able to sucessfully interoperate with each other. Details of this
   interop are available at:  http://www.diameter.org/mip_results.txt

   This specification was reviewed for the IESG by Dave Oran.

The DIAMETER extension doesn't work in the method you described. The
lifetime returned is the expiration time, in a format consistent
with NTP time. It is up to the Mobile Node to determine whether it should
request new keying information, by including the MN-AAA authentication
extension in the registration request.

I would agree that the two options you described above are the logical choices.
#2 is the best way, and #3 provides the safeguard. However, my assumption
was that code 67, defined in RFC 2002, could be used for this purpose. Since
a code already exists for the Foreign Agent to communicate with the Foreign
Agent that the authentication has failed, why should this document define
a new one?

That's just my point, we can not use the DIAMETER extension.

My point is simply that when we distribute keys to the Mobile Node with
ANY protocol (DIAMETER or whatever), we also include a lifetime for the
key in the same extension. That will make it possible for the Mobile
Node to choose between the MN-FA or the MN-AAA authentication
extensions.

Does the draft really specifiy a new error code?
BAD_AUTHENTICATION is defined as code 67 in the challenge response
draft.
And in rfc2002, error code 67 is defined as "mobile node failed
authentication".
My understading was that these were the same. Am I missing something?

I believe that "DIAMETER be itself" is what you meant, right? This draft
was intended to be used with the draft you refer to in option 2 below
since the mobile node does not talk directly to the DIAMETER infrastructure,
and therefore must be the keying material through Mobile IP.

So, the AAA protocol is not the issue here, right? We simply need to be
able to provide the keying material to the Mobile Node, and the keys
MUST have an explicit expiration time.

you are correct. They are one and the same. I now understand that you were just
asking for specific text to be added to the draft, not a new error code.

Right, the AAA protocol is not the issue.
Maybe I should have made my point above a little clearer. The AAA
protocol distributes the keying information (key and lifetime) to the
home agent and the foreign agent.
The key and lifetime is sent to the mobile node, in the key extensions
added to the Registration Reply as described in the AAA Reg Keys draft
(draft-calhoun-mobileip-aaa-key-00.txt). This means adding a lifetime
field in that draft. I'd be happy to give you some text to add to the
draft.

So, if we fix up draft-calhoun-mobileip-aaa-key-00.txt, you would be happy,

Adding a lifetime field to the draft-calhoun-mobileip-aaa-key-00.txt
makes I'm happy.

Adding the text in option 3 below, about that the MN SHOULD include the
MN-AAA auth in the next Reg Request if the MN gets a Reg Reply with code
BAD_AUTHENTICATION, would make me even happier.

 I was assuming an SA lifetime is multiple times of MN Registration lifetime
 from the beginning...

 But, judging from the last Pat's email, they have already come to a consensus
 to add a lifetime field in the expired draft-ietf-mobileip-aaa-key-00.txt.
 This solution may be better than mine, I agree.

 But, there is a new problem to this solution:
 If an MN receives an SA lifetime, the MN must keep the SA until the lifetime
 is expired.  This means in some cases an MN must keep too many SAs.  If an MN
 visits many subnets, and if their SA lifetimes are long, SAs to be kept will
 soon grow more than an MN's ability.

 I will appreciate, if there is a method about re-getting or re-newing
 keying information with its lifetime.  If there is such a method, an MN can
 abandon some old SAs before being expired.  Winthout such a method, if an
 MN abandons an SA between the MN and an FA, an MN cannot anymore register the
 FA whose SA the MN had abandon before, because the FA knows there is an SA
 between the FA and the MN.

 Or, am I missing some sentences ?

Thanks.
-Yoshi

Hi Theo,

I'm one of the implementers to the Ericsson Mobile IPv6 code. We don't have
any public material available but I can give you a short summary.

Our development platform is FreeBSD and we are using the IPv6 implementation
from the KAME team. We have implemented everything according to
draft-ietf-mobileip-ipv6-09.txt except support for renumbering of the home
subnet. IPSec should work but we have not been able to test it due to some
problems when parsing a file containing SA and SP data.

We have had it up and running for quite some time now and it has been very
stable during the tests that we have performed.

We made a delivery to the KAME team for a couple of months ago but
unfortunately the  delivery was not easy to import for the KAME team. To
save a lot of job for Itojun and make future deliveries easy to import in
the KAME repository we have decided to reorganise the structure of the code
and make a new delivery of it no later than the 7th of February. The status
today is that we have changed our repository and we are currently making the
changes needed to get the code starting.

Hopefully, once the code has been delivered to KAME, the code will be public
available from their repository. If this is not the case, i.e. the KAME team
does not chose to use our code , you can send me a e-mail and I will make a
delivery to you.

Regards
Conny Larsson
Ericsson

Hello everyone,
   I was wondering if it is possible for a mobile node, with overlapping
wireless cells, to receive multiple agent advertisements from different
foreign agents? If it is possible, what should the mobile node do? And
dose this imply that the underlying link layer has the capability of receiving
data from multiple agents? Thank you for your reply!

Yes, the fact that the Mobile Node can simply request new keying material
by including the MN-AAA Authentication Extension in the Registration
Request. This needs to be supported since we do not know that a Mobile Node
no longer has an SA because of laziness, or due to a host reboot.

My understanding of mobile IP is that a client can be registered to multiple
FA at once.  This should not be an issue.

        Hello everyone,
           I was wondering if it is possible for a mobile node, with
overlapping
        wireless cells, to receive multiple agent advertisements from
different
        foreign agents? If it is possible, what should the mobile node do?
And
        dose this imply that the underlying link layer has the capability of
receiving
        data from multiple agents? Thank you for your reply!

Hello,

I would like to know how much time is necessary to complete a handoff. Is
there a minimum value since a certain number of Router Advertisement have to

     Workshop                           August 11, 2000
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

SCOPE:
Over the last decade there has been a rapid growth of wireless
communication technology. Voice communication using cellular phones has
matured and become a significant part of our life today. In the recent
past, the emergence of portable computing devices such as notebook
computers and personal digital assistants have led to the opportunity
of such services as electronic mail, fax and calendar/diary programs
being provided to mobile or roving users. Observing this trend, it can
be predicted that the traffic over next generation, high-speed wireless
networks will be dominated by personal multimedia applications such as
video/news-on-demand, telemetry services, traveler information systems,
WWW browsing, and so on.

        The 3rd Generation Wireless activities are focused through the
effort
of UMTS and IMT-2000 are considering the ATM technologies for the network
implementation. The recent activities at 3GIP forum is actively
considering
the use of IP technology for the future wireless network. The wideband
wireless network using IP technology is becomming an important industry
issue
and the seamless integration of the wireless standards and wireless IP and
mobility standard are necessary to create this future network. The role of
the different IP technologies like SIP, HTML, XML, Netmeeting for wireless
and mobility are not finalised and will require considerable discussion to
obtain the resolution. Also, the wireless access techniques like
Bluetooth,
WAP etc may require seamless intregration to the 2.5G (GPRS) and 3G
wireless
standards.

The objective of this workshop is to provide a forum for
researchers and technologists to present new ideas and contributions in
the form of technical paper, panel discussions, as well as online demos
of service applications or technology related to wireless multimedia.
The issues and challenges for the development of wireless multimedia
networks not only encompass a broad spectrum of research topics such as
quality-of-service provisioning, broadband wireless, network support,
prootocols, or handover, but also involves a way to envision the evolution
of multimedia networks in the future.

TOPICS:
Technical papers and/or product demos are solicited in all areas
related to wireless multimedia and its interfaces (or co-existence) with
the conventional wireline networks. Topics include but are not limited to:

        - Third Generation Systems
- Multimedia Applications
        - Fixed or Mobile Wireless Multimedia Access
- Wireless Network Evolution
- Broadband Wireless
- Wireless ATM and Wireless IP
        - Multicasting in Wireless Services
        - Delay and Jitter Management for Multimedia Services
        - Synchronization of Multimedia Wireless services using ATM and IP
- Quality-of-Service amd Admission Control
- Multimedia Network Architecture and Protocols
- Compression Techniques
- Mobility Management & Handover Issues
        - Routing
- WWW Browsing
        - Telemetry Services
        - Broadcast Data
        - Mobile Agents
-------------------------------------------------------------

The MN does not necessarily keep an MN-FA SA if it leaves the
relative FA. My understanding is that normally the MN keeps one
MN-FA SA unless it has simultaneous bindings (COAs) at the HA.

Are you considering the case in which an MN returns to an FA which
has maintained the MN-FA SA even though it no longer has a binding for
the MN? (unless there are simultaneous bindings)
Can an FA maintain SAs for some time after the expiry of the
relative binding (reg. lifetime)? If so the MN should be aware of
this time period and cache SAs. Anyone have any comments?

There is a considerable amount of work in progress that will ensure that the
delay in the hand-off will be minimized. The new I-D that I announced
recently, which allows the FA to send a hand-off request to a MN will reduce
the delay.

Right now the said draft isn't a WG item, but I hope to make it by Adelaide.

 In your previous mail you wrote:

   there a minimum value since a certain number of Router Advertisement have to
   be missed ?

=> I think this is very dependent of the kind of movements (according
to experiments with IPv6 mobility where there are Router Advertisements
but where they are not used as you have suggested, ie. detection is
mostly based on prefixes).

Hello,

Yes, there has been lots of work going on in minimizing the handoff
time.

There are several 'variables' affecting the handoff time:
        - Robustness of the FA equipment
        - Network speed
        - Network latency between the Foreign network and MN's Home Network
        - Link layer quality (probability of packet loss)
        - etc...

One of the most important variables is the network latency between the
FA and HA. E.g. This latency can easily be N * 100ms. For example:

--- www.cisco.com ping statistics ---
41 packets transmitted, 41 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 173.1/175.1/182.7 ms

And this was done with a 100Mbps connection to a switched core. :)

Some customized proposals, like:
 R.Caceres and V.Padmanabhan,
 `Fast and scalable handoffs for wireless internetworks,'
 in Proceedings of the 2nd IEEE Annual International
 Conference on Mobile Computing and Networking (MOBICOM),
 Rye, NY, USA, November 1996.
have achieved really short handoff times, but they mainly use link layer
optimizations and/or then make specific assumptions on the underlying
link layer - which the basic Mobile IP does not do.

In optimizing the handoff time, localized handoffs have an important
role.
Handoffs can be localized entirely on the network layer with a
hierarchical Mobile IP solution, where the signalling required in
handoffs only travel a minimal distance to a point in the FA hierarchy,
where the previous location (and thus the session information) of the MN
is known.

Dynamics team at Helsinki University of Technology has been implementing
and testing Dynamics - HUT Mobile IP, a hierarchical Mobile IP on Linux.

We have achieved handoff times of 20ms, when the full advantage of the
hierarchy is achieved. Passing one more layer in the hierarhcy has
brought some 19ms more to the handoff time, but this is mainly dependant
on the core network speed and the robustness of the FA machines, and can
be further decreased.

These results are from our tests, where the FAs in the hierarchy have
been relatively slow i486/120MHz based computers with WaveLAN adapters
(downlink) and 10Mbps Ethernet connections (uplink).

These results show that hierarchical Mobile IP, like Dynamics, can
provide secure and fast handoffs to support e.g. glitchless audio
streaming to mobile devece while roaming in campus area wireless LAN.

A research paper about our hierarchical solution was presented in
MoMuC'99 conference. The paper is available from Dynamics web site
http://www.cs.hut.fi/Research/Dynamics/

                Tom

To: MOBILE-IP@STANDARDS.NORTELNETWORKS.COM

 draft-ietf-mobileip-privaddr-00.txt has expired on Dec 1999 and I see that
 it points to rfc2002 for inclusion of a new 'P' bit in the FA advertisement
 in order to advertise it's willingness to support privately addressed
 mobile nodes. Now should draft-ietf-mobileip-rfc2002-bis-01.txt  include a
 'P' bit for private addressing support ?
 According to the reverse tunneling specification, T bit alone is
 not capable of handling overlapping private addresses of MNs belonging
 to two different HAs.

Also, I am curious to find out:

 -Current status of the private address draft-- will there be a new draft soon ?

 - Does it make sense for RFC2344 to  specify that it should be able to handle
   communication between FA and two different MNs having same private addresses
   (but different home agents) visiting this FA  ?

 -How do we specify the mipagent behavior in the simple case scenario when
  we have global foreign agent address, global home agent address ( one side
  of the HA has public address and the other side has private address and
  private MNs have home addresses on this private subnet ) and privately
  addressed MNs are talking to each other on different foreign links ?

Is there anyway that we could change "Critical Vendor/Organization Specific

would be more consistent with the new Generalized Authentication and Key

The CVSE is not an Authentication extension, so I'm not clear
why it should follow this convention?  Doesn't this conflict
with MIER draft?

2.2 New [Proposed] Mobile IP Extension format

    This draft proposes the following structure for Mobile IP
    extensions to be carried in the Mobile IP control messages.

     0                   1                   2                   3

Gwendal,
        Yuh, there is a minimum value if u strictly follows RFC2002
protocol which uses ICMP messages (minimum value one second for each
messages) for the router advertisement. Since it requires three
advertisements to be missed (assuming without using any link layer
protocol), the minimum value is >2 seconds to complete a handoff (this
excludes the distant registration time period,CPU processing etc.). The
average value is 2.5 seconds (also excludes the distant registration time
period, CPU processing etc.)

        However, there are a lot of proposals to shorten the advertisement
periods or to use link protocol for handoff. Note that we also need to
consider the distant registration period during handoff. There are a few
drafts to solve the distant registration period such as HFA, RAFA etc.

regards,
Foo Siang Fook

yes, but we (many of us) repetedly requested that the MIER length be aligned,
and you can bet that the MIER draft will be stopped during WG last call
because this was never addressed. Perhaps this requires a separate thread
on the subject, but I am just tired to stating the same thing over and
over and over .... (get the picture :).

So, while I agree that CVSE is not an authentication extension,
alignment is good. alignment is my friend, and I would really like
people to take that into account, when possible, during protocol
design.

Thanks,

PatC

Hello Mark,

It is possible for a mobile node to enter simultaneous registrations
and thus have more than one care-of address.  However, this feature
has not, to my knowledge, been tested at any interoperability event.
Thus, unless it is shown to be interoperable, there is the likelihood
that the feature will be dropped from the standard as we pass from
Proposed Standard to Draft Standard (possibly later this year).

If people would like to keep this feature, I think it is important
to demonstrate implementations that make use of the feature.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Hello, Pat and Karim,

 My comments are embedded in the followings:

 Thanks Pat; I'm happy to hear the above.

 You know, according to rfc2002 and rfc2002bis in the 3.7.2.1 section,
 if an FA and an MN share an SA, and if the Mobile-Foreign authentication
 extension doesn't exist in a request, the FA will silently discard the
 request.  And, I couldn't find any related descriptions in the challenge
 draft and an expired keying draft.  So, I assumed an FA would discard
 such a request.
 I'm looking forward to seeing something like the above in a coming keying
 draft.

 As for binding information, you are right.  But, as for SAs,
 I don't think so according to the current drafts.

 Yes, I was saying about this.  From my understanding, an FA will
 maintain SAs for their lifetimes, even if there are no binding.  An
 MN will try to cache SAs.  In case of current laptop PCs, it may be
 OK, because there are plenty of memory and hard disk.  But, in case
 of poor MNs, resources may be restricted, I'm afraid.

 But, Pat mentioned about requesting new keying material.  This will
 enable an MN to discard old SAs before their lifetimes.

Thanks.

The agent advertisements are sent to broadcast or multicast address. Thus,
if the MN is one hop away from the FA, it is possible for the MN to hear
more than one FA simultaneously (IP routing).

There is no need for simultaneous bindings for this kind of behaviour. If
we need to establish connections with both FAs, it would be necessary.

To the handoff discussion. When the MN hears multiple FAs at the same
time, it has the possibility to choose the best one. The decision for the
"best" node is problem for the MN. If received signal strengths can be
obtained from the link layer, the decision becomes easier. Thus, also the
handoff decisions can be made much more faster than the agent
advertisement interval.

The hierarchical Dynamics - HUT Mobile IP uses the link layer signal
quality information of WLANs and the handoff decisions is based on that in
the MN. In addition the ability of the MN to hear multiple FAs at the same
time enables soft handoffs and thus packet loss is minimized. No buffering
nor multicasting type scenarios are needed to support smooth handoffs with
soft handoff. Simple and effective ;).

Jason, I remember there was a thread "CDMA misinterpret" on the list(around
last August) discussing the cellular underlayer link impact which you might
be interested.

>From my understanding, MIP itself has no problem to maintain multiple
bindings, however a lot wireless mediums so far can't support the happening
of multiple bindings via the same adapter, i.e. in the 802.11 LAN or the
Cellular environment, you are not able to receive packets simultaneously
from 2 access points or base stations.

Hi Samita,

I don't know whether the authors of draft-ietf-mobileip-privaddr-00.txt
intend to provide a new version, but I remember that Charlie, when
presenting the draft in Oslo, pointed to a number of remaining issues
related to the draft. As the handling of private addresses in Mobile IP was
again mentioned to be an open issue at the Washington meeting, I assumed
that there was no intention for further work on the draft, so I've therefore
submitted the new  draft-petri-mobileip-pipe-00.txt.

You mention the proposal for the definition of a new 'P' bit in the FA
advertisement, by which an FA indicates its ability/willingness to support
privately addressed mobile nodes. The proposal looks like being quite useful
to me, even if it may not be clear at this time, how the final handling of
private addresses in Mobile IP may look like. Maybe, one idea could be to
interpret that 'P' bit even in a more generic sense, i.e. that the FA can
handle private addresses in general, e.g. also when communicating with a
privately addressed HA.

Kind regards

- Bernhard

Hello Karl,

I hope you can find a way to excuse my extreme tardiness in
responding to your note.  It's been on my list for a long time,
but only now am I able to revise the Route Optimization draft,
and thus to pay attention to these issues.

> The first issue is the number of different methods for updating binding caches

The Previous FA Notification extension is designed for smooth handoff.
The Binding Warning extension was requested by engineers from Nortel
who pointed out that the home agent was often well placed to deliver
the warnings.  Lastly, since the Previous FA Notification is basically
a one-shot mechanism to handle the _usual_ case of successful
transmission between wired foreign agents, we did not want to make
the new foreign agent responsible for retransmissions.  This leads
directly to making the mobile node responsible for them.  Furthermore,
if the mobile node does NOT send the binding update, it alone will
suffer whatever the consequences might be.

The home agent can be pretty far away from the scene of the action, though.
Furthermore, with regional registration, the home agent wouldn't be involved
at all.

This is not true if you like the idea of using Previous Foreign Agent
Notification messages.

This just isn't true, if the home agent doesn't even get the Registration
Request until 100ms (say) after the mobile node sends it.  Or, 500ms.
Or, even worse on a bad day.

> I would propose making the HA required to keep track of all nodes it sends a

It would be better to make the mobile node do it, especially if
you believe that communications are more often local than remote.
On the other hand, it would be nice to cut down traffic over the
air interface during busy times like handovers.  On the third hand,
there are many issues involved and it is difficult to make blanket
statements that are always true.

> A second issue is how to handle binding updates for non-routable IP address

Right now, the Route Optimization draft doesn't have a lot to say about
private addresses.  The Privacy bit has to do with halting the dissemination
of bindings to third parties, and is not related to the nature of the
home address (i.e., whether it is a routable address).  On the other hand,
I would be happy to add some clarifying text if you will craft a statement
that says what you want to be said.

> A third issue relates to correspondant nodes tunneling data to the FA instead of

Again, I would appreciate it if you could craft some appropriate text to
be inserted as needed.  I have not myself used GRE tunnels for this, so
I do not have the experience.  GRE was included as a tunneling option by
other people in the working group.  As far as I know, it has not been tested
for interoperability.  I agree that there should be some implementations and
some testing so that the feature can be kept, but I won't be able to help
much with the task of doing so.

> The last item is minor.  In sections 8 and 8.1, you mention  "Previous FA
> Notification messages".  Shouldn't those really be extensions instead of
> messages?

Yes, that is true.  I'll make the changes.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Hi Charlie,

As a carrier that hopes to deploy this, and as I think about what our
architecture will look like I don't see this as a strong requirement.  If
this feature falls out I currently don't see an issue.  I am glad to see
that I do at least have an understanding (and was correct) that MIP
currently does support this (in theory).

Thanks

                Hello Mark,

                It is possible for a mobile node to enter simultaneous
registrations
                and thus have more than one care-of address.  However, this
feature
                has not, to my knowledge, been tested at any
interoperability event.
                Thus, unless it is shown to be interoperable, there is the
likelihood
                that the feature will be dropped from the standard as we
pass from
                Proposed Standard to Draft Standard (possibly later this
year).

                If people would like to keep this feature, I think it is
important
                to demonstrate implementations that make use of the feature.

                Regards,
                Charlie P.

You probably right...
Since It is part of move detection policy and there is nothing there that
explicitly states how the policy should look like.

But wat is noted is that if you have a capability to have simultanously
bindings you have a kind of multimoming facility.

Hi All,

I agree with Pat that we should take byte alignment in consideration because
it is a little more efficient to execute extension which preserve byte
alignment. We will fix this in the next version.

yes, but we (many of us) repetedly requested that the MIER length be
aligned,
and you can bet that the MIER draft will be stopped during WG last call
because this was never addressed. Perhaps this requires a separate thread
on the subject, but I am just tired to stating the same thing over and
over and over .... (get the picture :).

So, while I agree that CVSE is not an authentication extension,
alignment is good. alignment is my friend, and I would really like
people to take that into account, when possible, during protocol
design.

Thanks,

Hello folks,

Excuse my late reply, but I wanted to raise a little more discussion
about the lifetime for the keys generated for the mobile node during
registration.

I think there are two cases.

Clearly, the key generated for use between the mobile node and the
home agent has to have a lifetime.  The key could be used for quite
a few registrations, and should not have to be regenerated every
time the mobile node moves to a new foreign agent.

However, I do not think the same considerations apply for a key
generated for use between the mobile node and the foreign agent.

For instance, I would say that the same key should be used by the
mobile node for as long as it stays at the same foreign agent.
New registrations at the same foreign agent should be able to
use the same key; since the home agent verifies each registration,
and especially if the home agent has a security association with
the foreign agent, there is no need to distrust the mobile node.
And, unless the key is use for bulk data encryption, there is so
little traffic that cryptanalysis is unlikely to succeed in
compromising the key.

Bottom line:
- I think the key generated between mobile node and home agent
  should have a lifetime.  This lifetime _may_ correspond to the
  amount of time that the AAAF is willing to "trust" the home agent.
- I think the key generated between the mobile node and the
  foreign agent should last until the mobile node moves to a
  new care-of address and carries out the protocol operations
  for a smooth handover.

This is the philosophy that is currently reflected in the newly
revised AAA keys draft, which is finally done.

Regards,
Charlie P.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IP Routing for Wireless/Mobile Hosts Working Group of the IETF.

        Title           : Mobile IP Extensions Rationalization (MIER)
        Author(s)       : M. Khalil, R. Narayanan,  H. Akhtar, E. Qaddoura
        Filename        : draft-ietf-mobileip-mier-02.txt
        Pages           : 8
        Date            : 27-Jan-00

It is in the interest of the Mobile IP WG to conserve the
usage of the type field since we see many drafts proposing
new extensions for Mobile IP. Therefore there is a real
need to find ways to limit the usage of the type field in the
extensions structure. MIER describes a new extension
structure to Mobile IP to make the extensions far more
extensible.

Send a message to:
        mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
        "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-mobileip-mier-02.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.

                         http://PROMS2000.kt.agh.edu.pl/

After past successful PROMS conferences held in Berlin, Salzburg,
Madrid, and Santiago de Chile now we cordially invite you to
Cracow/Poland, a lovely university city, with a 1000 year history, today

one of cultural capitals of Europe.

Emerging broadband interactive applications along with a development of
different networking technologies should draw telecom operators' and
service providers' attention to protocols supporting multimedia systems
as an interface between these two environments that has to be still
investigated and modified.

The PROMS2000 conference is intended to contribute to a scientific,
strategical and practical cooperation between research institutes and
industrial companies in the area of distributed multimedia applications,

protocols, and intelligent management tools, with emphasis on their
provision over broadband networks.

PROMS2000 will cover papers and demonstrations on research and
achievements related to the following topics:

TOPICS
* design and implementation of multimedia protocols for public switched
telephony networks, mobile networks, data networks, and satellite
networks using IP, ATM or other connectivity techniques;
* application, media, and protocol integration: synchronization of media

streams;
* multiparty and group communication protocols;
* mobile networking and routing: multimedia communication architectures
for mobile networks;
* multimedia applications: video-on-demand, digital video libraries,
video games, virtual community, teleworking, teleteaching, e-commerce,
telemeeting, virtual reality simulations;
* content based searching and querying;
* techniques for the specification of communication services required by

multimedia applications;
* methods for real-time testing and analysis of service implementations;

* integration of media storage and communication mechanisms, operating
system and high-performance issues;
* experiences with service provisioning using distributed multimedia
applications;
* performance of protocols and applications: modeling, simulation and
optimization in different networks
* multimedia traffic engineering;
* applications and platforms for service management and provisioning;
* definition, provisioning, and supervision of QoS parameters for
networked applications and services;
* intelligent management tools pertaining to costs and quality of
service, network access, accounting, security, and system resilience;

* 3rd day       October 24      invited talks, sessions, panel, banquet
* 4th day       October 25      invited talks, sessions

VENUE
Its history rooted deep in the Middle Ages, Cracow, is the most
celebrated city in Poland. UNESCO has added its architectural complex to

the World Heritage List. Cracow's appeal today, however, is no longer
attributable solely to the beauty of its medieval architecture, but to
its strong scientific potential for applied research and development.

The PROMS2000 Conference will be held on the modern premises of the
Department of Telecommunications within walking distance of both the
downtown area and hotels. Direct flights to Cracow are available to and
from Chicago, Copenhagen, New York, Toronto, Frankfurt, London, Paris,
Rome, Tel Aviv, Vienna and Zurich.

SUBMISSION

Subject:      [MOBILE-IP] retrieving MN's link layer address
To: MOBILE-IP@STANDARDS.NORTELNETWORKS.COM

The revised version of the draft, draft-ietf-mobileip-rfc2002-bis-01.txt
mentions in section 4.2.2. "Foreign Agent Considerations":

"A foreign agent MUST NOT use broadcast ARP for a mobile node's MAC
address on a foreign network.  It may obtain the MAC address by
copying the information from an Agent Solicitation or a Registration
Request transmitted from a mobile node"

The question is for various implementors, how does IP retrieve
the link layer address from the link layer? Has anyone implemented
this piece? A (reliable) solution does not seem apparent to me, so
any comments/insights would be welcome.
