The route optimization part would only be vulnerable if Binding
Updates could be applied without authentication.  Since this is
clearly prohibited, I am sure that the route optimization part does
not have the vulnerability under discussion.  How can it be otherwise?

Maybe some nodes wouldn't have security associations with
a mobile node sending a Binding Update.  Then they could not
accept the Binding Update.

Is there something in the current specification that does not make
this point sufficiently clear?  If so, please let me know what
improvement to make.  Or else, maybe I am not understanding
your point...?  I am really curious to find out!

Do you mean that some nodes wouldn't be able to accept Binding
Updates at all?  Then why is this a security vulnerability?

Do you mean that some nodes would accept a Binding Update
without authenticating it?  Then this is a violation of Mobile IPv6!

I think this is a fundamental enough point, with specific technical
documentation, that we should be able to agree on the issue,
but somehow it seems that there is not yet agreement, so I hope
you can help me see why you believe there is some vulnerability
here, when I am so certain it is prohibited by the existing
specification!!

Even IPv4 route optimization doesn't have the vulnerability,
because IPv4 Binding Update is _also_ required to be discarded
unless it can be authenticated.

I was talking about specifically the "base" Mobile IPv6 document,
without key distribution.  I would agree that ancillary documents
should need to do their own analysis -- and yet the threat document
mostly refers to features specific to the Mobile IPv6 document itself.

Are you claiming that section 8.2 needs repair?
Or is it that section 4.4 is incomplete?  If the latter,
then what specifically do you think is wrong?
It specifies the data that needs to be authenticated.
The Binding Update (formerly AH) specifies a SPI
which should determine the authentication algorithm.
If there isn't one, there is no authentication.  What's
wrong with that?  What words do you think are
missing?

No, what I wrote is that the existing specification
does not have the vulernability, because Binding
Update packets cannot be accepted without
authentication.  It is the authentication requirement
for Binding Updates that makes route optimization
secure.  This requirement has been known for well
over 7 years.  It is not new.  It was never opened
within Mobile IPv6.

I sure do wish someone would explain why there
is some vulnerability, since as best I can tell the
action that would lead to vulnerability is absolutely
prohibited by the specification.

Hi Vijay,

You wrote the text below yesterday, and I'm trying
to understand what you mean exactly. You can call
me slow but could you help by explaining more?

Specifically, I'm wondering why the HA option has relevance
in this discussion. They don't need security in the same way
as BUs do. But perhaps the HA options somehow affect the
policy matching in a negative way? However, as per section
8.1 in the -14 draft, CNs generally remove the HA option before
further processing - presumably such as IPsec policy matching
- takes place. Also, section 10.2 seems to indicate that any
policy matching is performed on outbound packets before they
have the HA applied.

So, assuming BUs have their own next header value and are
not piggybacked, it seems that they could match policy
entries such as "protocol=BU, destination=me,
source=peershomeaddress => use sa1". The rest of the traffic
uses protocols such as TCP, which do not match these entries,
hence no security is applied to them.

Charlie,

It seems to me that you are to some extent splitting hairs. I'll
concede this particular battle, but that doesn't change that we have
work to do to get the spec to RFC.  In particular:

This is technically correct. If a receiver can't properly authenticate
a BU, it (per the MIPv6 spec) discards it, so technically there is no
vulnerability. But in this case, route optimization doesn't work
either. And presumably people want route optimization to work because
they think it is important. So, I agree, rather than saying "there is
a security vulnerability", we should be saying something rather
different, i.e., additional work needs to done to develop a more
deployable approach to securing BUs in the case of communication
between arbitrary MNs and CNs.

Indeed, there would be such one good reason: mobile networks have an
implication on other aspects not related to Mobile IP.  For instance, on
routing protocols, but the right place for the discussion is still
Mobile IP because we have to determine whether Mobile IPv6 is the right
base protocol for network mobility support.  Mobile IPv6 may not be able
to address all issues, but it surely can help.

I agree that MANET WG could benefit from this discussion (how do you
manage mobility of an ad-hoc network that changes its point of
attachment ?), but it's not a better place than Mobile IP WG.   MANET WG
is more concerned by "how things are done INSIDE the network" than "how
to manage subsequent point of attachments to the Internet", which is
Mobile IP WG's.

Anyway, seems clear to me that everyone agree that this should not be
addressed in the MIPv6 draft itself, but in a separate document.

Hello Thomas,

Thank you very much for this note. I suddenly no longer
feel that we are living in parallel but disjoint universes.

I thoroughly agree that we have work to do in order to
get Mobile IPv6 to Proposed Standard, and I'm not
adverse to going about getting it done in whatever way
is the most likely to reach the technical goals and attain
consensus within the working group.

However, to me it does not seem at all like splitting
hairs, because of the following:

- The "original" goal was to have a mechanism by which
   route optimization could work, for those hosts able to
   create the appropriate security association.

- The "new" goal is to create a mechanism by which a lot of
  (or maybe all) IPv6 hosts can authenticate the Binding Update.
  This would enable route optimization for a much larger subset
  of all IPv6 correspondent nodes.

That is a big goal.  I think that we are likely to be looking at
some challenging work, so it is crucial to have a precise
understanding of the current problem and the new goals.
I like your formulation of the problem stated in your last
sentence of  the last paragraph.

Regards,
Charlie P.

I think there are some issues here. Recall the MIPv6 uses destination options
for binding updates, acks,  requests, as well as home address option.

Even if nobody ever invents any new destination options header this means
that if the IPsec policy says that packets with nexthdr = destination options
this effects packets containing e.g. home address options.
Thus for traffic between two mobile nodes (which always have home address
options in both directions) you'd be forced to use IPsec on every packet.
In fact, when a mobile node is sending packets (using its home
address) it must always include a home address option thus those packets
would require IPsec.

Of course, if other destination options are invented in the future the
precense of those would also force IPsec which might be undesirable.

So things for sure would be simpler if, in addition to no piggybacking,
the BU (and binding acks, requests as well?) were sent using a different
nexthdr value or otherwise using different IPsec selectors (i.e. a UDP port
number would avoid this issue as well.)

Jean-Michel,

That would solve part of the outstanding issues.
But with just those changes you would still need a PKI that includes
both the MN and the CN in order to use route optimization.
It is my understanding that folks one to use route optimizations even when
a PKI with such scope is not available.
(If I'm mistaken about this requirement it would be good to straighten me out.)
 Thus there is a need for something somewhat weaker than a PKI in order
to allow route optimization in those cases. There are several proposals 
that somehow use "return routability" as the criteria for such a weaker
scheme.

Yes, the more I think about this the more I'm
inclined to agree.  Another negative effect would
be that you'd be unable to use SRTP instead of
IPsec which in turn would pooch ROHC for the media
(or at least give 12-16 bytes more of
uncompressible data per packet). A longer term
solution would be to extend the generalized port
semantics to DO's just as it's getting extended
to support SCTP right now. 

I think I'd probably favor that more for the
following reasons:

1) Creating a new header type always seems like
   a rather large club to beat on a problem
2) IPsec will work right now if you're willing
   to live with the restrictions (ie, all home
   address options would need crypto applied to
   it too)
3) The situation where this would be problematic is just the
   MN/CN traffic since the traffic is tunneled
   between the HA/MN. I imagine that *most* of
   the MN/CN BU's will actually be the weak
   variety instead.
4) Where strong authentication is used between
   MN/CN is likely to be an all or nothing 
   proposition anyway (ie, all PDA's in my
   enterprise using 802.11 MUST set up IPsec
   transport SA's to protect *everything*).
   Thus #2 may be a not-terrible restriction.

Thus, waiting for an abstracted port mechanism for
DO's may be viewed as more of a completeness
issue, rather than a must have issue.

  No, you are exactly right. There are two things that need to
  done:

  1) Provide a strong authentication solution where it is
     pragmatically possible
  2) Provide a weak authentication solution where it is 
     pragmatically impossible.

  We have been talking almost exclusively about (1) recently,
  though that doesn't mean that (2) is uninteresting. It's
  day will come too, I expect.

Jari,

for option 'B' i thought you assumed that only piggybacking
was not used. i didnt realise that you also assumed that there
is a new next header value for the BU. then option 'B' would
work.

Gopal, 

DAD handling was already covered by the introduction
of HI/HAck. The text below wouldn't hurt though.

Thanks Behcet. I have corrected the Captions. Also let me know if you
find 
other mistakes.

As for the DAD handling, how about the the following statement at the
end 
of second paragraph of section 5.1. Let me know....

"Links wherein the  uniqueness of the interface identifier is ensured
with 
in the subnet (by means beyond the scope of this document),  DAD
handling 
procedures could be avoided."

i partly agree with you. i have personally implemented this fix. 
but the problem is that this fix needs to be implemented in every 
correspondent node. i wouldnt calls this an implementation issue.

=> I don't know what else to call it. If a -cn wants to 
receive a BU it has to do this. I don't see a problem 
with that. Nothing on the wire is changed.

The use of return routability as a proof of address ownersip has some
limitations, especially on nonswitched broadcast links. 

SUCV and CAM both provide a lightweight solution to the problem of address
ownership, by cryptographically binding the home address to the public key
of MN. This could be used in combination with almost any protocol, which
uses public key cryptograhy, to verify cryptograhically that MN really
"owns" its home address. 

IMHO use of a SUCV is a lot more secure than using return routability.
Also as there is no dependence on a trusted third party, the protocol
should scale well.

Thomas,

If you separate the key management from using AH and ESP for
securing binding updates, you have raised two issues about
using AH or ESP itself :

1) There is no policy selector for securing just binding update
2) The state maintained by IPsec could be large.

(1) is not really a big issue if we could come up with a new
next header value. At least IPv6 was designed to do such things
i guess.  We really have to think about (2). At least any new
solution that does not propose to use IPsec should not maintain
state larger than what IPsec would need. Should this be in the
requirements draft ?

Hi Alper,

Thanx for the review.

This not strictly accurate. It takes out the signaling at L3. There is still
signaling at L2. The MN must know when it comes up on the new
link, and what the L2 address of its router is, otherwise it can't
get packets out.

I'm not sure I understand your example. Perhaps you have identified a problem 
here, but lacking more detail, I can't see it. If a situation
happens as you identify it, the MN can begin establishing a new CoA
at any time. As soon as the new AR detects that the MN has completed
this, it signals the old AR via a HRqst to tear down the tunnel. If
the MN succeeds in getting a new CoA on old AR, old AR simply doesn't
tunnel.

In general, BETH is not proposing to replace
or otherwise negate the existing handover mechanisms, just to augment
them. If the MN discovers a router, it is perfectly free to perform
a standard FMIPv6 handover, or even a stock Johnson and Perkins
handover if it so chooses. The mobile node is completely in control
of when it decides to begin the process of obtaining a new CoA. That,
in fact, is the key differentator between BETH and both the standard FMIPv6
and Johnson and Perkins algorithms. These algorithms leave the MN no
choice, it *must* obtain a new CoA regardless of whether the process
would interrupt a real time flow.

>

Well, this is a policy question and something that I don't think is
appropriate for the protocol draft. There maybe be some need in
particular situations to codify the interaction between BETH
and FMIPv6 more precisely if there is interference, if so, then we need to 
clarify it. We probably need to go through some protocol flows to
check this, similarly for the interaction between FMIPv6 and
the original Johnson and Perkins algorithm. BETH is no different than standard 
FMIPv6 or the original Johnson and Perkins algorithm in this regard. Should a 
router advertise if it is capable of FMIPv6 so that it can suppress MIPv6? 
If so, then perhaps we need some policy knobs that let a network
administrator configure what type of handover they want to support,
and a way to communicate that to the MN when it enters the network.

them? 

I'm not clear on exactly what you are proposing, but if I understand
you correctly, I think there are more open questions about how
a second interface would get used than BETH. For example, if an interface
is already configured with a global IPv6 address and a MIP CoA, then
there would need to be some process on the MN to cause that binding
to be transferred to the new interface. The global IPv6 address would
need to be transferred and there would need to be a new CoA on the
new interface (unless, of course, the new interface is on the same subnet).
The Neighbor Caches on the routers need to be updated, to reflect the
new binding between the CoA and L2 address. This is naturally going to require a 
certain amount of radio traffic, and so it is not appropriate for BETH handover 
to be used in this situation. BETH is only for extremely time critical handover, 
such as is involved in real time traffic. Before we start discussing
how to handle interaction between BETH and a MN with two interfaces,
I think we need a better understanding of how a MN with two interfaces
would perform a standard MIPv6 handover between them.

>

The signal should be the BACK from the HA and any CNs, because it is only at 
that point when the new CoA can really be used. The ARs tear down
the tunnel at this point, though they may keep it up for some
configurable time period in order to assure that any laggard packets
get to the MN. The draft should be more precise about this.

>

As I mentioned, the MN is completely informed via L2 and is, in fact,
more in control than in FMIPv6. In BETH, the MN can choose to use
the standard FMIPv6 algorithm, where it gets to choose which
router it wants, etc. *And* it gets to choose when to  establish
a new CoA. With FMIPv6, it only gets the first.

Delay occurs when the radio link is used for anything other than
real time traffic, regardless if it occurs on the old link or the new.
On a 9.6 Kbps radio link (currently used for 2.5G cellular voice),
signalling traffic on the dedicated traffic channel will block any other 
traffic. Cellular protocols currently use the dedicated traffic
channel for IP signalling. One could imagine using the dedicated
signalling channel for IP signalling, and that would help to free the 
traffic channel since the IP signalling can go on in parallel, but
even then the signalling channels tend to be substantially slower
than the traffic channels (I think wCDMA uses 3 Kbps if I remember
correctly), so there is the potential that a MN could start the
process of obtaining a new CoA by anticipation and end up moving
to a new access router before it actually had the new CoA. BETH would
handle this smoothly, so I think there is a place for it even
if IP signalling traffic moves to a dedicated channel. Not to mention:
moving IP signalling traffic to a dedicated signalling channel would require
the 3Gs to actually modify their air interface, something difficult
and time consuming to do.

My understanding from reading the FMIPv6 draft is that the F-NA is
what triggers the process of Neighbor Cache update at new AR, DAD,
and all the other good but time consuming stuff involved in 
getting an IPv6 host up on a new subnet. Is that not so?

Note that these calculations do not consider the BU/BACK from
the HA nor from CNs. If you add those into the picture, you
get considerably more time until the new CoA can be used. In that sense, the 
calculations are very optimistic, and for all but the first scenario consider
that the MN will be using its old CoA on the new AR just like
in BETH (considered a corner case in the original FMIPv6).

>Draft says BET is torn down when "The MN begins the process of obtaining an 
nCoA 
>through nAR.". How does the newAR know that? Is is through newAR detecting that 
>MN is doing a DAD on a CoA?
>

As mentioned above, the tunnel should be kept up until all BU/BACK from
the HA and CNs have arrived, and perhaps even remain up for
a short period after to catch any laggard packets. It is only at
that point that the MN can begin to reliably send and receive packets on the new 
CoA.

>
>Draft says "The MN is in the best position to know when it can afford to pay 
the 
>latency cost of CoA establishment." I don't think obtaining a newCoA has a

>

Alper, everything that involves radio traffic not related specifically
to applications running on the MN has a latency cost and is pure overhead. 
Everything. At 9.6 Kbps, it takes 1.2 ms to send a byte. If the byte is in a
mobile IP packet, or a routing advertisement, or anything other
than a packet involved in the application, that is 1.2 ms that
is not available for sending application data. If the application
is a real time application, you can only get away with sending
overhead for an extremely short time before the user notices. The only way to 
get around this is to either do the signalling on a separate channel or
crank up the speed of the radio link (if you can, wCDMA allows
this, cdma2000 doesn't). That's why the 3G radio protocols have
separate signalling channels in the first place, unfortunately, we
don't get to use them.

I agree that we need to do some protocol flows to identify the interaction
between BETH, standard FMIPv6 and the original Johnson and Perkins algorithm.
These flows should identify whether there are any situations in which
there is need for some additional work to allow suppression or switchover,
or perhaps specification about what the ARs  and MN should or should not do
in particular windows. I don't think, however, that BETH is any different from 
the other two algorithms in this regard.

Vijay, 

B cannot work at all. all packets from tbe MN to the CN 
contain a home address option in a destination options 
header. that means the security association is applied 
to every packet between the MN and CN. so 'B' also needs 
option specific selectors.

=> The Home address destination option is not 
relevant here. The BU is. These are 2 separate
options so you don't need to apply the AH to 
every packet.

Hi Vijay,

I am mostly neutral on whether the authentication data should be in the AH
or in the BU itself. Both solutions have their benefits and drawbacks.  
However, the version 14 of the draft should be clearer on how the BSA is
created, used and destroyed:

The BSAs should be deleted when MN deregisters, since the replay state for
MN is deleted then. If MN and HA have a preconfigured shared secret they
need some new mechanism of deriving session keys to use for authenticating
BUs and BAs. (If the same key is used for multiple sessions the replay
protection from sequence numbers is broken)

Hello Jim,

I wanted to clarify that it isn't buffering itself that adds delay.
A packet could be buffered AND transmitted to the mobile node at the
same time, which then would show that buffering does not have to
introduce any delay.  If a packet is received by the mobile node,
then presumably it would prefer not to receive the buffered copy of
that packet at any time in the future.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Pat,

I saw your note that you will be leaving Sun.  

Can you say where you will be planting your new roots?  Will you be involved
in Diameter and All-IP stuff?

I hope that this will be a good move and will work out great!

Have a good day,
Mike Dolan

Agreed. My intent was just to have return routability as an example
of a weaker mechanism. Sorry for not making that clear.

While I'm not up on the latest draft I suspect that there can be DoS
issues. For instance, invoking public key crypto operations to verify
the binding between a SUCV address and a key, when a random packet is 
received might be asking for DoS attacks. This can be avoided by in
effect doing a return routability checking handshake before invoking
the public key operations.

I like authentication data as a BU suboption. this 
authentication data protects the BU option and the 
home address option alone. nothing else. draft-14 
gives a cleaner solution for authenticating BU's IMO.

advantages
----------

1. we dont have to get a new next header value for the
destination options header containing the BU

=> That would add zero cost.

2. we dont have to modify the ipsec selectors

=> Again zero (or insignificant) cost

3. we dont have to protect the whole packet

=> Why is that an advantage ?

4. we dont have bother about the traffic flows between
the MN and the CN.

=> We don't have to anyway if we stop piggybacking.

5. we can piggyback BU's. somebody asked a question if 
BU's are sent often. YES, BUs could be sent often to 
refresh the bindings. its not necessary the home agents 
agree to very large lifetimes for BUs. and BUs are sent
to everybody in your binding update list everytime you
move.

6. we dont have to store the security association for
protecting the BU in the ipsec database. lookup is 
expensive. it could be stored in the binding update 
list entries. you already have access to the key.

=> Do you really see a lookup time as a critical issue ?
I'm not sure that it would be, even for real time 
data. Are there any figures on how long it takes ?

7. authentication checksum calculation can be done 
very early (ie when the BU is being formed). in the 
current implementations you pull the packet out from 
the ip6_output function, calculate the checksum and 
put it out again in the ip6_output function. this is 
because you cant calculate the checksum until the 
whole packet has been formed.

=> Sure, but what's the added value in doing it 
earlier ?

One advantage is that you might like to allow for
IKE when strong authentication is needed. Why 
eliminate that option ?

Hesham

Gopal, 

DAD handling was already covered by the introduction
of HI/HAck. The text below wouldn't hurt though.

Thanks Behcet. I have corrected the Captions. Also let me know if you
find 
other mistakes.

As for the DAD handling, how about the the following statement at the
end 
of second paragraph of section 5.1. Let me know....

"Links wherein the  uniqueness of the interface identifier is ensured
with 
in the subnet (by means beyond the scope of this document),  DAD

procedures could be avoided."

Yes, we absolutely need to have a PKI-less solution for the global
Internet use. (Perhaps also a PKI solution for the Intranet use.)

But this working group already has an ongoing effort to create
such a PKI-less key management solution, and luckily we can
keep the actual BU protection and the authentication/key management
questions separate. Therefore, we are free to choose between
MIP-specific BU protection and IPsec AH independent of how
the key management is solved.

(Of course, it might be easier to get also the PKI-solution if IPsec
AH was used.)

Hello Phil,

If I order a pizza, and somebody brings me two, and
charges me twice, that's bad.

If I get two for one for free, that's better, but from
the standpoint of the restaurateur it would be nice
if the government didn't tell him he HAD to serve me
two for one.  Furthermore, if I'm tired of eating and
I still have to swallow the extra food, I might complain
even about the freebie.

If, on the other hand, I can buy just the pizza I want,
and if I have to leave before I finish the meal but
later I can ask for the slices that are still hot,
that sounds about right to me.

Regards,
Charlie P.

You are assuming that it is easy to use IKE to create non-IPsec keys e.g.
for MIP specific BU protection.
Are you sure it is that easy?
(I don't have any data - but I thought IKE was tied to IPsec.)

Hi Charlie,

A single pizza is not really a good example.  Its perhaps
better to think of yourself as SERVING pizzas to visiting
dignitaries and you have to keep the pizzas coming to ensure
that they are always happy (i.e. the pizzas are warm NOT
stale).  In this case if the dignitaries can be in two
possible places during certain periods of time (handoffs) 
it is VERY wise to send pizzas to both locations.  QED :-)

 Mike, 

Let's get an agreement on this: the MN
can use AH without needing a new nxt header
value and without using AH on every packet
with a Home address option if :
- No piggybacking was allowed
- The IPsec selectors granularity was refined
 to see the BU option not the Home address option. 

I do however agree with the option Erik mentioned 
below (having a new nxt header) in which case only
eliminating piggybacking would be needed. 
But I would like to leave the 2 options open. 

So in one case a nxt header value is needed and in 
another the IPsec granularity is changed. Of course
this is assuming piggybacking is disallowed.

Yes, the more I think about this the more I'm
inclined to agree.  Another negative effect would
be that you'd be unable to use SRTP instead of
IPsec which in turn would pooch ROHC for the media
(or at least give 12-16 bytes more of
uncompressible data per packet). A longer term
solution would be to extend the generalized port
semantics to DO's just as it's getting extended
to support SCTP right now. 

I think I'd probably favor that more for the
following reasons:

1) Creating a new header type always seems like
   a rather large club to beat on a problem
2) IPsec will work right now if you're willing
   to live with the restrictions (ie, all home
   address options would need crypto applied to
   it too)
3) The situation where this would be problematic is just the
   MN/CN traffic since the traffic is tunneled
   between the HA/MN. I imagine that *most* of
   the MN/CN BU's will actually be the weak
   variety instead.
4) Where strong authentication is used between
   MN/CN is likely to be an all or nothing 
   proposition anyway (ie, all PDA's in my
   enterprise using 802.11 MUST set up IPsec
   transport SA's to protect *everything*).
   Thus #2 may be a not-terrible restriction.

Thus, waiting for an abstracted port mechanism for
DO's may be viewed as more of a completeness
issue, rather than a must have issue.

From RFC2409,

   Phase 2 is where Security Associations are negotiated on behalf of
   services such as IPsec or any other service which needs key material
   and/or parameter negotiation. "Quick Mode" accomplishes a phase 2
   exchange. "Quick Mode" MUST ONLY be used in phase 2. 

I thought you would not need IKE, if you need only weak authentication.

   IKE provides for domains of interpretation (DOI), though
   IPsec (2407) is the only one currently defined. ISAKMP
   provides a fairly general framework which is used by
   the group keying draft as well as KINK. It would require
   a pretty good understanding of 2407, 2408, and 2409 to
   contemplate creating new DOI, not to mention that the
   work would need to be back integrated into ISAKMP
   consumers (KINK, maybe GDOI??). Also, there is a question
   of how the kernel would get the keying information. PFKEY
   (2367) is the current method for many *nixes, but I don't
   know how extensible it is for things other than IPsec.
   An implementation issue for certain, but yet another
   complication.

the main thing in the above paragraph is "or any other service which 
needs key material".

IKE is for key exchange. IKE/BAKE/PKI/AAA can all establish
a key between two nodes. extract the security association from 
the database, store it in the binding update list and use 
it to authenticate the BU. the SA is stored in the binding
cache entry in case of the CN.

i am not an expert at IKE either. but that doest prevent me
from going into the SPD database (mobile ip module), extract
the SA and store it in the binding update list.

the mobile ip module has the all the information it needs
(key, spi, algorithm). it calculate the authentication 
checksum as soon as the BU option is created.

   I'm pretty sure that Vijay is correct here. IPsec selectors
   do not define a standard way to use the port numbers in
   the ID payload to select for different destination options.
   This is probably not that hard to define, but it's not
   standard now.

Well, I guess I agree, but what is the point of buffering if you
are going to transmit it or of transmitting it if you are going
to buffer it? The two options seem mutually exclusive to me.
Am I missing something?

Hello Henrik,

> The BSAs should be deleted when MN deregisters, since the replay state for
> MN is deleted then.

It is likely that the existing mechanism for replay protection could be
improved.  For instance, we could specify an explicit field in the
Binding Update option data for this purpose, and maybe that should be
done in preference to relying merely on the Sequence Number field.
Alternatively, we could continue to go with the Sequence Number field
and just accept the possibility for more frequent rekeying.  However,
I get the sense that people will desire that rekeying be done every
few days or weeks anyway, so maybe it's O.K. as is, even between
mobile node and home agent.

This means that a BSA could be retained as long as the sequence
number could still protect against replays (i.e., the replay state
would become part of the BSA and not be deleted).

Agreed, and this has been noted within the specification.  It is an
open question how adequate or inadequate the current proposed use of
the sequence number might be.  I am, myself, completely neutral on
the issue, as with most of the current security issues.

Charlie P.

But chances are you'll end up with the remaining slices, which
are now cold, and a new pizza that is warm as well.

So, if a packet stays around in a buffer long enough (and we're not
talking that long), the peer will most likely retransmit, and you'll
end up with dups anyways.

The point of buffering and simultaneously transmitting is that
sometimes the mobile node might not be there to receive the transmitted
packet -- say because it moved to a new access router.  Then it would
request the previous access router to send the buffered packets that
it had not already received.

This is a matter for managing the probabilities for such occurrences,
and when it gets to that point the analogy cannot help any more.
But simulation and prototype indicate that the necessary data (slices
of pizza) can be consumed in enough time to help with voice.  And it
can be done in a way to avoid dups entirely.

I thought the analogy would be useful for illustrating points about
resource consumption and so on, but not for evaluating probabilities
or other engineering parameters.

Just to be clear, I am not categorically against bicasting, but I
think it's true realm of applicability is not large enough to be
mandated as part of fast handover protocol, and that there may often
be more economical approaches available.

Charlie P.

Hello Erik,

I thought that we were going to have to devise a way for all
IPv6 nodes to get security associations with mobile nodes.
Isn't IKE too much to ask from every IPv6 node?  And, yet,
I agree that we should have a way to use IKE to get keys that
would be useful for authenticating Binding Updates.  I just
expected it wouldn't be the universally mandated way.

Regards,
Charlie P.

OK, now I understand. I suggested something like this, but with
the new AR doing the buffering, in Appendix B of the BETH draft.

in which case the mobile doesn't have to request the packets, since
opening the L2 would cause buffered packets to be released to the 
mobile node.

While I agree that they are orthogonal problems,
without well defined mechanisms for key
distribution -- especially considering the scaling
implications of small/cheap mobile devices -- key
distribution is likely to be the real problem with
actual deployment. Retaining standards based key
distribution mechanisms with some deployment track
record is the safest and quickest way to
deployment that I can see. And I'm hardly what
you'd call an IKE evangelist (are there such
creatures? :-)

My interpretation of the IESG's general position
is that if strong authentication is pragmatic
(with fairly high standards for what is not
pragmatic), it must be provided for by the
protocol in order to advance. For MIP, it's a
mixed bag: in some cases it's possible (MN/HA) and
in some cases it's not pragmatic (random
MN/CN). Given that, it seems that we need to
provide for both options.

I'll add that the MIP working group is not the
only one to feel the heat because of this general
requirement, much to the chagrin of many working
group chairs.

It has earlier already been discussed that if a _new next

issue, and current standard can be used.

I'm trying to make the point here that the BU protection and key
management can be solved in an independent manner. I wasn't
actually thinking that IKE be used to create MIP-specific SAs.
That would also be possible, though it involves some more work.

Instead, I think a much more fruitful approach would be the following:

- CN, MN, and HA nodes implement AH protection for BUs in the manner
  discussed before in this thread i.e. no piggybacking and a new
  next header number. Current IPsec suffices for this.

- CN and MN nodes implement BAKE - or something similar -
  in order to generate keys without a global PKI. BAKE provides
  keys for AH i.e. creates IPsec SAs. We do need to complete
  BAKE in this WG, but I don't think it'll make a difference whether
  it keys IPsec SAs or other kinds of SAs.

- Optionally, some nodes may implement IKE in order to 
  use it for VPNs or for the protection of BUs through a
  corporate PKI. Of course IKE will also be creating
  keys for IPsec SAs.

If you have a new next header number, would you still need to avoid
piggybacking?
(Maybe I should go read this really long thread and find the answer...)

One of the things that has been raised as a concern is the scalability
of IPSec SAs in CNs (such as web servers) which may be serving a large
number of MNs. Can today's IPSec implementations handle a very large
number of SAs in the SAD (in the tens of thousands)?

Good. Relying on IPSec SAs as the only types of SAs may be a limiting
factor.

Hello Erik,

Actually SUCVp (the SUCV protocol) described in
http://www.inrialpes.fr/planete/people/ccastel/draft-montenegro-sucv-01.txt
considers the DoS issues you've pointed out...

The protocol works as follows:
- the MN sends a msg1 (basically a BU-Hello request) to the CN
- the CN replies with a msg2 (that contains a cookie ...or more precisely a
client puzzle). This msg is sent through the home agent...
- the MN then has to reply with a msg3 that contains the cookie or the puzzle
reply...
- The CN will then only perform the SUCV verification + DH exponentiation (to
derive a SKey) if the cookie or the puzzle reply is correct...

The draft actually contains a fully detailled security analysis of the
protocol...we believe it is pretty complete...
Unfortunatly we  did not get a slot to present it in London ...but we will both
(Gabriel Montenegro and myself) be in London and will
be very happy to discuss with anybody interested in this work...


regards,

Claude.

Hello Henrik...

I of course agree with you ;-)
SUCV does not rely on any trusted third party and scales very well...

SUCVp also uses return routability but not as a proof of address ownership but
rather to avoid some DoS attacks as described in the draft...

BTW SUCVp can also be used to prove the CoA address owernship... this is very
usefull to
avoid address stealing and some DoS attacks (see
.http://www.inrialpes.fr/planete/people/ccastel/draft-montenegro-sucv-01.txt
for more details).

regards,
Claude.

in which case the mobile doesn't have to request the packets, since
opening the L2 would cause buffered packets to be released to the 
mobile node.

GT> I guess that works when the oldAR knows which packets were received by
the MN before the link went down...any remaining packets can now be
forwarded to the newAR and by the time the MN connects to it the packets
will be ready for delivery ...without requests or duplications...sounds good
to me too.

I think you agreed that your draft is not a complete solution in RADIUS based architecture because
some other security association must be present betwen FA and HA. Right?
If so, someone want to use your draft in RADIUS based architecture and they want not to use
IPSec like secuirty protocol betwen FA and HA, then it is vulnerable to the DoS attack not because 
of the security hole of your draft but because of the that of RADIUS. They should
have mandate FA-HA authentication extension in this case, I think.

It is indeed a long thread! I think the answer
is that piggybacking would still have to be avoided.
Both in terms of firewalls and ipsec policies the
current limitation is that usually just one level
of protocols can be matched against. The remaining
part of the packet beyond the BU might include something
that needs other special security treatment. Again,
this is an limitation that could relatively easily be
removed, but in this discussion we were trying to
see how BUs must look like if current IPsec is used.

>One of the things that has been raised as a concern

>servers) which may be serving a large number of MNs.

The scalability issues certainly deserve some thought.
There are IPsec implementations that can handle
large number of SAs. There are also implementations
that handle only a few. If you are out of luck, it's
on your web server OS ;-) Seriously though, there are
three separate issues, the SAs themselves, their use,
and then the policy databases. Let's discuss the SA database
first. This is in the order of a few hundred bytes
in typical implementations and essentially contains
the necessary cryptographic contexts, plus a small
number of other smaller fields. Any SA, IPsec or
other, requires similar amounts of memory. So
here it is hard for me to see an issue.

Naturally there might be hard computing power
limits on how much you can actually use the SAs.
These should also be roughly similar in any of
the alternatives we are discussing. It is perhaps
possible that on some busy servers this load
exceeds the capabilities of the hardware. It is
likely that server manufacturers would like to
add a feature that enables the box to age BUs
faster and/or refuse BAKE and optimized routing
if the load of the box grows too high.

Finally, the policy databases that contain the
filters to match packets. These need both memory,
and execution time for each packet. Typical
implementations would perhaps use a similar amount
of space for a policy entry as they do for an
SA. On a MIP-specific solution, we don't need 
this as the policy is in a way hardcoded to the
processing of the BUs. However, assuming your
box doesn't want to support IPsec in general
and only wants to support BU protection, it
is easy to optimize this by e.g. starting
the policy matching only in the BU processing.

JMC : I totally agree with you. I just want to avoid that PKI-IPsec solution will
be rejected. Today, some people speak about problem of PKI scalability but just one
point : there are more PKI than MIPv6 Mobile in the world :-))

   This really amounts to the same thing. The Diffie-Hellman 
   exchange is being protected by a return routability test
   but since it's the exchange is not bound to trustable
   direct or third party knowledge, the key agreement protocol
   isn't providing any _additional_ authentication properties
   (which is why all of these drafts are subject to MITM 
   attacks, etc.)

   This is why I think that we must make public key crypto
   explicitly optional as I did in draft-thomas-mobileip-ha-cookies.
   They have their use, but their use is in the cpu time/messages
   tradeoff domain, not in the authentication domain.

   I don't understand how you can possibly have "proof" of
   address ownership without either direct or third party
   knowledge of a key to address binding. Perfect forward
   secrecy is only as strong as the initial authentication;
   it doesn't provide additional authentication.

   I'm not so sure here as there's a consideration which
   hasn't been discussed yet (to my knowledge). IPsec and
   other kinds of schemes like it create hard state on the
   nodes. That is, state that cannot be deleted at will by
   either of the hosts without causing synchronization
   problems. It would be nice to have a scheme which allows
   soft state instead. This is not possible with strong
   authentication unless you use public-key digital
   signatures. However, it does seem like it's possible
   with the weaker return routability-based authentication 
   schemes. Given that BU's are soft state, it would be
   highly advantageous to allow for soft state in the weaker
   variety of BU authentication. 

   Indeed, I see no reason to force hard state between the
   MN/CN in general for the very reason that the return
   routability test is, itself, an example of a repeatable
   test which can be used as a means of producing soft state.

   Right. My main argument here is that if we are given
   the choice between something that has standard key
   distribution methods defined right now, and something
   that does not, there should be extraordinary reasons
   why we'd choose the latter since key distribution is
   such a nightmare.

Hello Mike,

I would be very gratefull if you could explicitly tell us to which MITM attacks
SUCVp
are subject to...
This would be very useful to us.

thanks in advance,

Claude.

Ya know alper, route optimization, in general, certainly complicates things.
In fact mobility  complicates things. Perhaps we just shouldn't do any of
it. This is all just too complicated. Let's just keep building stagnated
stupid routers and hosts - not to mention access specific single point of
failure anchored systems.

My point is that it isn't that complicated.

Glenn,

I'm afraid other than killing birds, piggybacking has some other issues 
associated as well :) 

First of all, it'll complicate your implementation. You should queue your
Mobile 
IPv6 signalling messages, setup timers amd age them ... Basically your 
implementation should "manage" this new queue. It's different than sending 
packets as soon as they are ready. In addition to implementation complexity,

this will also have an effect in the performance of your system. 

Piggybacking also effects PMTU. If upper-layer wants to send a PMTU-sized 
packet, and IP wants to piggyback Mobile IPv6 signalling on this packet...?

Pat,

We can probably define the specifics/details of the operation of this
in another draft. What we are asking is that you include a statement in
this regard so that we have a basis for a new draft. We don't want to
close the avenues through which we can define unsolicited key
distribution.

I personally think it is better to amend your draft now instead of going
back to revise your rfc to support unsolicited key distribution.

Claude, 

What you propose is the security equivalent of a
perpetual motion machine :-) It is well known that
all schemes which do not incorporate
authentication -- either direct or third party --
are subject to man in the middle attack. That is,
if my message goes through an untrusted man in the
middle, it can dup both parties into believing
that they are speaking end to end when they are
in fact speaking through the man in the middle
who can adulter/insert/delete messages.

In the case of MIP, the MITM would likely be a
router, though it's possible there are attacks
from the edge as well. The only way that I can
counter the MITM is to possess a piece of
_independently_ obtained information for which you
can supply some cryptographic transform which
leads me to believe that you are in possession of
the information which binds the request to
whatever you are asserting ownership of (and thus
control). Practically speaking, that means a key,
either asymmetric or symmetric, that I've obtained
securely and *in advance* of the request, either
directly, or by leveraging a trusted third party.

I've not read enough in the SUCV draft to find
exactly where the MITM attack is possible, but if
it is based off of HIP in its oppertunistic mode,
then such an attack is definitely possible (which
I'm pretty sure that Bob would agree). This is not
to say that such opportunistic encryption is not
completely without value; indeed it does a
reasonable job of keeping outsiders out even with
the MITM attack possibility. However, we need
to not fall victim to belief that the security
equivalent of the second law of thermodynamics
can be repealed.

       Mike

I think you agreed that your draft is not a complete solution in RADIUS based architecture because
some other security association must be present betwen FA and HA. Right?
If so, someone want to use your draft in RADIUS based architecture and they want not to use
IPSec like secuirty protocol betwen FA and HA, then it is vulnerable to the DoS attack not because 
of the security hole of your draft but because of the that of RADIUS. They should
have mandate FA-HA authentication extension in this case, I think.

I think you agreed that your draft is not a complete solution in RADIUS based architecture because
some other security association must be present betwen FA and HA. Right?
If so, someone want to use your draft in RADIUS based architecture and they want not to use
IPSec like secuirty protocol betwen FA and HA, then it is vulnerable to the DoS attack not because 
of the security hole of your draft but because of the that of RADIUS. They should
have mandate FA-HA authentication extension in this case, I think.

Hello Charlie,

When implementing DHAAD, we noticed that the resending policy for the
DHAAD request is not specified in draft 14. However, it probably should be
specified, since the initial request or reply can easily get lost if MN
moves.
 
Regarding the processing of the home address option section 8.1 says:
   "... However, any actual modifications
   to the Source Address field in the packet's IPv6 header MUST not
   be performed until after all processing of other options contained
   in the same Destination Options extension header is completed."

Normally destination options are handled independently of each other in
the order they are in the packet, which allows a clean design for
destination option processing. Unfortuantely draft section 8.1 breaks this
and requires the handler to go back to the home address option after
processing all other destination options in the header. I wonder, whether
this behaviour is really worth the complications it causes.

If it is absolutely necessary to handle the home address option only after
the other options are processed, it would IMHO be better to make the
sender of the packet responsible for the ordering. (The sender would add
the home address option as the last option in the 1. destination options
header.) 

Regards,

Henrik

Of course not :) You seem to be picking on my "implementation complexity" point. 
By the way, I'm talking about piggybacking binding messages, not talking about 
route optimization.

Implementation complexity by itself is not the only issue. The other points I 
have raised was the performance hit due to handling  "binding message should 
wait until we have a packet to send to the same destination, or a timer goes 
off"... It's hard to say which one is more important: saving bandwidth or 
processing power.

And the PMTU issue...

You haven't addressed my last two issues..

All I'm saying is that there are also downsides to piggybacking. It's not all 
that great.

Pat,

In addition to the request for adding the unsolicited key push feature, 
we are still requesting support for HA-HA authentication as requested
by Madhavi Chandra. 

Also, we are still wondering if authentication of a reply carrying a 
key is in line with RFC2002 - MN parses the reply, obtains the key 
from an extension in the reply and uses this key to authenticate the
message.

Thanks
Alpesh

Isn't this similar to blaming the tire manufacturer about a car's
performance, when the car itself only accepts square tires?

ok, seriously, the original challenge draft didn't include support for
RADIUS, but the authors were forced to add support for it by some folks
that also attend 3GPP2 meetings. The text that you see in the RFC is 
the result of text proposed by folks within 3GPP2.

If, as you state, a denial of service attack is possible on the HA because
RADIUS doesn't lend itself very well to Mobile IP's operational model,
I'm not sure that there's much that the FAC RFC can do to fix that problem.

Now that no new RADIUS development is being done within the IETF, perhaps
it is time for folks to embrace the new AAA work?

Thanks,

PatC

   I'm pretty sure that Vijay is correct here. 

=> No because the statement assumed that the Home Address
option implied that protection is required. 
It is the BU option that implies that. 2 different
options.

IPsec selectors
   do not define a standard way to use the port numbers in
   the ID payload to select for different destination options.
   This is probably not that hard to define, but it's not
   standard now.

=> My point has been that, provided there is no piggybacking
we can keep the selectors' granularity as they 
are by creating a new nxt header value or 
increase the granularity by looking for 
the BU option. ONLY packets with the BU option
will be protected in either case.

This is a matter for managing the probabilities for such occurrences,
and when it gets to that point the analogy cannot help any more.
But simulation and prototype indicate that the necessary data (slices
of pizza) can be consumed in enough time to help with voice.  And it
can be done in a way to avoid dups entirely.

I thought the analogy would be useful for illustrating points about
resource consumption and so on, but not for evaluating probabilities
or other engineering parameters.

Just to be clear, I am not categorically against bicasting, but I
think it's true realm of applicability is not large enough to be
mandated as part of fast handover protocol, and that there may often
be more economical approaches available.

=> Mandating bicasting was _never_ intended or discussed.
The assumption was always a MAY or a SHOULD. I think 
a MAY is sufficient.

in which case the mobile doesn't have to request the packets, since
opening the L2 would cause buffered packets to be released to the 
mobile node.

=> Two points to consider here:

1. What Charlie suggests above IS bicasting
   except that it is not explicitly requested by 
   the MN. There are several issues here that I highlighted
   on the FMIPv6 list and on this list earlier. 

2. How do you know the MN has detached ?? Is this 
   a generic assumption ? The answer is you don't 
   know on all link layers and it is not a generic
   assumption.

So in my mind, I believe that the main difference between the bicasting
and buffering approaches is simply that the latter requires the mobile
to *request* packets.

Am I right?

Well, yes, to the extent that the buffered packet is sent down
both links.

In general, smoothing is necessary IMHO when you only have L3 information or 
coarse gained L2 information about handover sequencing. For example, if the only 
information you have to go on about when handover begins is the receipt of a 
HACK, then you need to bicast or buffer for a long period, until the MN begins 
DAD or sends a F-BU on the new AR, and the probability is that your user will 
notice (i.e. dropped or duplicated packets for bicasting, propagated latency for 
buffering) because of the side effects of handover smoothing. If you have finer 
grained L2 sequencing information about handover, you can forget smoothing 
altogether, or only buffer or bicast for a very short time period. For example, 
if old AR gets a Link Drop L2 trigger on L2 handover and new AR gets a Link 
Active trigger when the mobile appears, old AR can stop sending packets down the 
old L2 as soon as L2 handover begins and start tunneling them to the new AR. The 
new AR can then either buffer or drop the packets until it gets the Link Up 
trigger with the mobile's L2 address, when it starts delivery. Thus, there is 
only a very short window during which L2 is completely unavailable when 
smoothing (if any) is needed.

This is why getting requirements (i.e. draft-manyfolks-mobilereq-l2-00.txt) and 
possibily an API and/or protocol for L2 triggers is so important. Without proper 
L2 sequencing information, it won't be possible to provide high quality real 
time flows across handovers.

First, as a general comment, it is unfortunately the case that
I have trouble sometimes figuring out which parts of messages are
the words that you said (usually introduced by "=>", thankfully)
and the parts that were already said.  Of course, you may assert
that this is my problem, and enough said...

Second, if our buffering scheme fits your definition of bicasting,
then it seems to me that we ought to work together to fashion a
smooth-handover draft that covers all the bases.

Lastly, I'll again point out what I have said a number of times
in the past, I am not categorically against bicasting.  I just
want to be sure to avoid the duplicated pizza problems.

Regards,
Charlie P.

PS. I have new information about the TCP problems; as could have
    been expected, when interpreted correctly, we are both right
    within certain restricted problem domains.  Sorry for being so
    vague just now; I hope to work on it more and write more soon.

So in my mind, I believe that the main difference between the bicasting
and buffering approaches is simply that the latter requires the mobile
to *request* packets.

Am I right?

=> Not at all :)
The proposal that Charlie mentioned IS bicasting
that is the point I'm trying to make. 
I don't understand why people assume that if you bicast 
then by definition you can't buffer. You can
delay packets destined to the new AR/FA based on some 
calculations of the average time for a handover. 

In addition you can bicast without a request from the 
MN (ie. by default in the AR). 
However, if you say I will send packets to the MN
at the current AR and send another copy to the new
AR then you ARE bicasting but just don't want to
say the word :))))))))
It doesn't matter how long you buffer or delay the 
packets destined to the new AR you are still sending
TWO copies. 

There are hidden assumptions if you do it by default 
in the AR though (without the MN's request). The 
assumption is that you know when the MN disconnects.
This is not generic of course so you still need 
to allow for the option of the MN requesting bicasting.

I think this is the proposal in the primary reference 
(draft-krishnamurthi-mobileip-buffer6-01.txt). It need not, however, be
so. If just the packets arriving during L2 handover are
buffered on new AR, as proposed in Appendix B of the BETH draft, then
new AR can quickly download the buffer when the MN arrives on the new
link, as you pointed out yesterday. The advantage of this is no
signalling over the radio link, which means the radio link is free
for the user's real time traffic, not MIP signalling.

Outstanding idea! A joint smoothing draft with both and some
analysis would be a real benefit.

We just need to figure out where everybody can agree,  and also
I think data on some experiments is needed to validate intuition.

ok, so then the options are:

1. mobile initiated (mn signalling over the air)
2. network initiated (no over the air signalling)

and

1. don't buffer on NewAR
2. buffer on NewAR

So, it is always bicasting, but some proposals use different mixes
of the alternatives above.

1-2 is not exclusive. In FMIPv6, new AR discovers the handover
is happening via HI/HACK, so you could buffer on new AR even if the
handover is mobile initiated. In low latency MIPv4, you would have to buffer on 
old FA 'cause there is no HI/HACK required unless you optionally do a 
HRqst/HRply to inform new FA.

As to whether there is bicasting or not, if you buffer on old AR as
recommended in draft-krishnamurthi..., you don't have to bicast. 
You just buffer on old AR until the mobile sends an over the air BU to old AR,
then the mobile gets the buffer. No packets are sent through 
new AR until the mobile is done establishing its new CoA.

Erik Nordmark posted a note earlier this week pointing out that
the formula I sent out was the total time over which incoming
packets are delayed, not the delay experienced by an individual
packet. My response was that the figure of merit of interest
was the delay experienced by the user. 

Upon further reflection, I realized Erik's point. The user experience
will, in fact, depend on the delay experienced by an individual
packet. If a voice packet from the CN is delayed by 100 ms, then
the user will perceive a gap in the converstation. The importance
of the formula I sent out (R = T(0) / (1 - A/B)) is that it gives
the total amount of time during which buffering is occuring. The
fraction of that total amount during which the per packet delay is
greater than the user perceivable delay indicates how long the
user must wait until the conversation no longer sounds stilted.
If that amount of time is short, then there is a short blip. If
it is long, then the user ends up in a half duplex conversation.
So R reflects how long the buffering latency from handover will propagate.

IMHO, this alters the conclusions for buffering only a little. 
The handover latency will still propagate, but as long as the handover delay is 
less than the user perceivable amount, the latency will not be noticable.
If it is greater, then either there will be a short blip (if the
latency is small) or the user will have a half duplex converstation
for a period with a duration depending on how long it takes the
buffering series to move below the perception threshold. In any event,
since the bound is pretty tight, it will be difficult to meet it if
there is any L3 latency in handover.

I wanted to clarify that it isn't buffering itself that adds delay.
A packet could be buffered AND transmitted to the mobile node at the
same time, which then would show that buffering does not have to
introduce any delay.  

=> And that is not bicasting ??!



Hesham

If a packet is received by the mobile node,
then presumably it would prefer not to receive the buffered copy of
that packet at any time in the future.

Regards,
Charlie P.

mobile nodes to quickly  change their point of attachment  to the
Internet, i.e., move from one Access Router to another.  These
protocol enhancements are intended to minimize the time during which
a mobile node is unable to send or receive IPv6 packets (i.e., the
handover latency).

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		: AAA Registration Keys for Mobile IP
	Author(s)	: C. Perkins, P. Calhoun
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mobileip-aaa-key-08.txt
	Pages		: 11
	Date		: 26-Jul-01
	
AAA servers, such as RADIUS and DIAMETER, are in use within the
Internet today to provide authentication and authorization services
for dial-up computers.  Mobile IP requires strong authentication
between the mobile node and its home agent.  When the mobile node
shares a security association with its home AAA server, however, it
is possible to use that security association to create derivative
security associations between the mobile node and its home agent,
and again between the mobile node and the foreign agent currently
offering connectivity to the mobile node.  This document specifies
extensions to the Mobile IP Registration Reply packet that can be
used to create such security information at the mobile node.

	Title		: SUCV Identifiers and Addresses
	Author(s)	: G. Montenegro, C. Castelluccia
	Filename	: draft-montenegro-sucv-01.txt
	Pages		: 23
	Date		: 24-Jul-01
	
This document addresses the identifier ownership problem.  It
does so by using characteristics of Statistic Uniqueness and
Cryptographic Verifiability (SUCV) of certain entities which
this document calls SUCV Identifiers (SUCV ID's).  This note
also proposes using these SUCV characteristics in related
entities called SUCV Addresses in order to severely limit
certain classes of denial of service attacks and hijacking
attacks. SUCV addresses are particularly applicable to solve the
'address ownership' problem that severely undermines confidence
in mechanisms like Binding Updates in Mobile IP for IPv6.

Interesting discussion.

But it seems to me that there is something missing with the
distinguishment being drawn between "buffering" and "bicasting".
It may be subtle, but here goes: To me, when you buffer something
you explicitly store it for future forwarding. This would be in
addition to any usually queuing delay. The idea behind bicasting
is to forward the packets as soon as possible after they arrive.

To make the distinction real, if the stream in question is EF,
bicasting would maintain the forwarding delay bounds at both ARs.
What happens the packets after they are forwarded is a different issue,
and related to the discusson about dropped vs duplicated packets. 
When you buffer the EF stream, by my interpretation, are unlikely to
fulfill a realistic EF bound, because you are buffering simply to hold
the packets for future delivery, which adds delay, period.

I realize I could be opening up a few bulk size cans of worms here.
To me, the reason you bicast is to avoid delaying packets. I personally
do not see duplicates as evil (but they must be removed at the reciever,
and not by TCP - at least, the existing TCP).

ok, so then the options are:

1. mobile initiated (mn signalling over the air)
2. network initiated (no over the air signalling)

and

1. don't buffer on NewAR
2. buffer on NewAR

So, it is always bicasting, but some proposals use different mixes
of the alternatives above.

Yes, L2 signals are there. But those signals don't reveal whether
there's BETH going on between ARs or not. And I think MN should know
this (see below).

My scenario, and question, is what should "a" MN do after it detects the
movement at L2? Should it wait in the expectation that ARs are performing
BETH in between and MN will start receiving packet sent to oldCoA? Since
there's no L3 signalling between ARs and the MN, MN cannot know that. Or,
should it attempt stock MIPv6 handoff (DAD, newCoA, which will delay
transmission from MN).

The end2end L3 signalling between MN and oldCoA reveals what's going on.
F-BU, F-Back, ProxyRtAdv are all new signals that indicate what's going on.
At any time both sides know what's going on, and can choose to fail it or
proceed.

The problem for BETH would be, at the time MN attaches to "a" new L2
(newAR),
how is it going to be notified of this information? Can't wait for a L3
message, as BETH relies on non-existence of such a message.

They can do "forwarding from previous care-of address" as specified in
MIPv6, I think.

Let me try to explain my example (it wasn't clear, I admit).

MN has interface1, attached to oldAR. It also has another interface,
interface2.
While oldAR and newAR decides to perform BETH for interface1, MN might
decide
to do a "forwarding from previous care-of address" between oldAR and
thirdAR.
Since MN doesn't know BETH is happening, it's very well possible that it
does
its own thing. So, I think we should define what happens if oldAR is in the
middle of BETH and it receives a BU from MN.

Is this based on newAR sniffing the traffic and seeing a Back sent to MN?

I agree with you on when to configure the CoA. But in BETH, somebody
is doing a L3-ish handoff on behalf of MN, and MN doesn't even know this.

OK, I see. Sending L3 signalling is blocking data transmission. I
understand.
This is the latency of transmiting the packet, not the latency for delivery.

F-NA can be replaced by a L2 trigger. Maybe we should clarify this better
in FMIPv6. The information needed for neighbor cache is already
in HI message. All newAR needs is an indication of arrival.

Once MN has a tunnel from oldAR to newCoA, it doesn't have to wait for
BU/BACk from CN/HA. Packets sent to oldCoA will be tunneled. MN can
use newCoA as its source address in the outgoing traffic.

But this BAck arrival happens at the MN, right? Not at newAR. So,
how does newAR know this? Sniffing on the network?

I see. It's my misunderstanding. This is the transmission latency, not
delivery. You are right.

	Title		: SUCV Identifiers and Addresses
	Author(s)	: G. Montenegro, C. Castelluccia
	Filename	: draft-montenegro-sucv-01.txt
	Pages		: 23
	Date		: 24-Jul-01
	
This document addresses the identifier ownership problem.  It
does so by using characteristics of Statistic Uniqueness and
Cryptographic Verifiability (SUCV) of certain entities which
this document calls SUCV Identifiers (SUCV ID's).  This note
also proposes using these SUCV characteristics in related
entities called SUCV Addresses in order to severely limit
certain classes of denial of service attacks and hijacking
attacks. SUCV addresses are particularly applicable to solve the
'address ownership' problem that severely undermines confidence
in mechanisms like Binding Updates in Mobile IP for IPv6.

	Title		: AAA Registration Keys for Mobile IP
	Author(s)	: C. Perkins, P. Calhoun
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mobileip-aaa-key-08.txt
	Pages		: 11
	Date		: 26-Jul-01
	
AAA servers, such as RADIUS and DIAMETER, are in use within the
Internet today to provide authentication and authorization services
for dial-up computers.  Mobile IP requires strong authentication
between the mobile node and its home agent.  When the mobile node
shares a security association with its home AAA server, however, it
is possible to use that security association to create derivative
security associations between the mobile node and its home agent,
and again between the mobile node and the foreign agent currently
offering connectivity to the mobile node.  This document specifies
extensions to the Mobile IP Registration Reply packet that can be
used to create such security information at the mobile node.

	Title		: Fast Handovers for Mobile IPv6
	Author(s)	: G. Dommety, A. Yegin, C. Perkins, G. Tsirtsis,

	Date		: 26-Jul-01
	
This document specifies protocol enhancements to MIPv6 that enable
mobile nodes to quickly  change their point of attachment  to the
Internet, i.e., move from one Access Router to another.  These
protocol enhancements are intended to minimize the time during which
a mobile node is unable to send or receive IPv6 packets (i.e., the
handover latency).

Please remember that mobility means to change connectivity.
Hence, it may simply the case that, when your data arrive at the (old or new)
access router, the link is just down. You can nothing do but buffering
in the hope that the link will come up again.

For a better understanding of the  problem,
I practiced a little bit with Charlie Perkin's pizzas
(in Phil Neumiller's business model, with slight modifications).
And I arrived at:

1. Bicasting may make sense without buffering.
2. Buffering may make sense without Bicasting.
3. Both may complement each other.

Assume that you have to serve one pizza P to one dignitary D
which moves through your city. The city is ful of your kiosks
where you can deliver P within a certain range.

If you know D's itinerary in advance and where she will be when,
you can do some (not easy) computations for timely delivery,
taking speed both of P and D into account.
Neither bicasting nor buffering is needed.

Now assume that you only know the itinerary.

If the delivery ranges of kiosks along the itinerary overlap,
you may multicast P along it.
If all copies of P arrive at their respective kiosk at one and the same time,
then at least one copy reaches D in time, i.e. without buffering.
Hence 1.

If delivery ranges do not overlap,
you have to both multicast and buffer.
Hence 3.

Finally, assume that you only know for sure one kiosk
where D will pass by.
Then you unicast P there, and it has to be buffered.
Hence 2.

Note that the latter case seems quite common
whereas 1. is rather artificial.

Does this help? Did I make a mistake? I never delivered a single pizza...

Wolfgang

ok, so then the options are:

1. mobile initiated (mn signalling over the air)
2. network initiated (no over the air signalling)

and

1. don't buffer on NewAR
2. buffer on NewAR

So, it is always bicasting, but some proposals use different mixes
of the alternatives above.

=> Exactly. As for (1) above, I certainly prefer it 
(or strongly propose) that we work within the current
Fast Handovers draft. Ie. The MN signals before
moving. Signalling after the movement would imply an
unnecessary RTT to release the buffers. 
In addition I don't think we need a buffer management
protocol. The calculation of buffer sizes and 
release ...etc should be left to the oAR (or nAR if 
needed).

Hello Hesham et al.,

Isn't it possible for a network initiated handover to
utilize signalling over the air to tell the mobile node
to get moving?

> and

Buffering at the OldAR should be an allowed option.

This is great as long as it is possible.  However, for some
systems it may not be possible, and I don't see any reason
to _restrict_ the smoothing request so that it could never
be issued from the new AR.

Unfortunately, the details about how much to buffer and so
on are application dependent, and not able to be reliably
calculated by the access routers.  There should probably be
a default minimum capability, agreed.  Furthermore, buffering
should be done without request only when it isn't being
charged for, and when doing so doesn't affect the ability
to offer buffering for other customers who might really 
need it.

Charlie P.

Thierry,

I've already responded to you personally, but I'll repeat them for the
working group.

Here are some reasons why a thoughtful analysis of mobile networking is
needed:

- How will network renumbering work?  If the mobile network is a /64 and
the visiting network only has a /64 allocated, how will this work?
Ideally, the visiting network should be big enough to house the entire
network, avoiding host level address changes.

- Additionally, you raise this problem well, but I think it's worth
emphasizing: how will the router be authenticated and authorized to send
BUs for its nodes?  How will it participate in site routing?  ND and
also IGP protocols such as RIPng, OSPF, etc. need to be analyzed.

- Finally, you also discuss this in the requirements, but we need to
explore multihoming possibilities, either with two mobile routers
connected to an AR or one MR connected to two or more ARs or both.

For these reasons, I think it would be premature to add mobile
networking support a posteriori without further consideration of the
problem.

I'm sending the attached ASCII TEXT document on behalf of myself, Jeff
Schiller, and
  Steve Bellovin, to clarify our position with respect to IKE
development. It is our hope
  that it will clarify, to some extent, some fuzziness in this area that
has evolved over
  the last year or so.

In the several years since the standardization of the IPSEC protocols
(ESP, AH, and ISAKMP/IKE), there have come to light several security
problems with the protocols, most notably the key-agreement protocol,
IKE.  Formal and semi-formal analyses by Meadows, Schneier et al, and
Simpson, have shown that the security problems in IKE stem directly
from its complexity.  It seems only a matter of time before more
analyses show more serious security issues in the protocol design that
stem directly from its complexity.  It seems also, only a matter of
time, before serious *implementation* problems become apparent, again
due to the complex nature of the protocol, and the complex
implementation that must surely follow.

Despite the obviously complex nature of IKE, several proposals have
been put forward to extend ISAKMP/IKE in various ways, for various
purposes.  Proposals such as IKECFG, XAUTH, Hybrid-AUTH, CRACK, and
others do nothing to improve the complexity situation with regard to
IKE as a whole.  While many of these proposals are, individually,
based on sound engineering and reasonably prudent practice, when cast
in the larger context of IKE, it seems clear that they can do nothing
to improve the complexity picture.

It is with that in mind that the Security Area directors in the IETF,
with the consultation of appropriate people on the IESG and IAB, hereby
place a temporary moratorium on the addition of new features to IKE.
It is fairly clear that work on IKE should focus on fixing identified
weaknesses in the protocol, rather than adding features that detract
from the goal of simplicity and correctness.

We are concerned that trying to reuse too much of the IKE
code base in new protocols -- PIC and GDOI come to mind --
will lead to more complex (and hence vulnerable) implementations.
We suggest that implementors resist this temptation, with the
obvious exception of common library functions that perform
functions such as large modular exponentiations.  Attempts
to share state or to optimize message exchanges are likely to
lead to disaster.

The Security Area Directors have asked the IPSEC working group to come
up with a replacement for IKE. This work is underway and is known in
the community as "Son of IKE".  This effort is at serious risk of
suffering the "second system effect", where all the features that were
left out of the first version, end up in the second.  For this to
happen would be a spectacular disaster, and very much detract from the
goal: to produce a more secure, simpler, and more robust version of IKE.

Arriving at this point has been exceedingly difficult and harrowing.
Understandably, egos have been bruised, and the "change not the IKE,
for it is subtle and quick to anger" position has been taken as a
personal afront by some members of the IPSEC community.  Nothing could
be further from the intent of either of the Security Area directors.
If IKE is vulnerable, we must all share a burden of responsibility for
allowing it to get to the state it is in and we must all work together
to correct the problems.

The IPSEC community must act prudently in moving forward with a
replacement for IKE.  The IPSEC auxillary groups (IPSRA, MSEC, IPSP)
must act with good judgment (chairs and members alike) in designing
protocols that don't interfere with the goal of security and
simplifying our IPSEC key-agreement protocol.

Tunneling under the old CoA between old AR and new AR is handled even under the 
stock FMIPv6 algorithm as a corner case. In BETH, the
difference is that when the MN detects it has moved,
it can either begin the process of establishing a new CoA using
the standard FMIPv6 algorithm, or it can wait until its real time
stream is complete, or until it moves again. The decision is
up to the MN. The tunnel should not be a corner case, but rather the norm. The 
ARs should always set up the tunnel for network initiated handover (this is,
incidentally, how low latency MIPv4 does it), and it is up to the MN as to 
whether and when it should establish a new CoA (this is not currenly
in low latency MIPv4 but we will add it if the WG agrees). If it has a real time
stream going, it can wait, if not, it can go forward with the CoA change.

For the mobile initiated case, it is completely different. Because
the MN is signalling over the air to control the handover, the algorithm 
presumes enough radio bandwidth (or a completely separate signalling channel) so
the MIP signalling doesn't interfere with real time streams. In
that case, the AR is warned sufficiently ahead of time by the
RqstPrxyAdv that the MN will be handling the handover, and so
it should not initiate the tunnel.

>The end2end L3 signalling between MN and oldCoA reveals what's going on.

>

If FMIPv6 is modified as I've described above, then there should
be no interference. Whether or not mobile initiated/controlled
or network initiated/controlled handover is done is a policy question
that probably will be determined by the amount of radio bandwidth
available or the availability of a signalling channel for IP related
signalling. This will have to be established beforehand. There
is no need, in the network initiated/controlled case, for any
signalling from the MN until it decides it wants a new CoA.

See above.

Does interface2 have a global IP address and CoA or not?

??? where does thirdAR come into this? I guess I'm still not getting
this example, sorry. Maybe we can talk about it in person in London?

I'm not clear what you mean by "in the middle of BETH." As I stated
above, BETH is just extending what is a corner case in the FMIPv6
draft to be the norm. MN knows when the L2 handover completes on 
L2 via the Link Up trigger. At that point, it can start the process
of establishing a new CoA on the new AR if it wants, or not. This
isn't any different from the case in standard FMIPv6 where none
of the signaling for establishing a new CoA goes through the old
AR and all of it goes through the new AR.

It would have to track the BACK. As for sniffing, BU/BACK are
destination options and I thought that routers were allowed
to process destination options? 

>I agree with you on when to configure the CoA. But in BETH, somebody
>is doing a L3-ish handoff on behalf of MN, and MN doesn't even know this.
>

It is no different than the corner case of standard FMIPv6 in which the
MN does no new CoA establishment signalling on old AR and all of it
on new AR. This is a real possibility in the standard FMIPv6 algorithm,
if movement into the coverage area of the new AR is too fast.
There is no L3-ish handover occuring, everything is happening at
L2 and the ARs are fixing things up at L3 to make sure the MN's traffic
gets to it (this is, after all, what routers are supposed to do).
The L3 handover occurs after the MN is on new AR, if MN so chooses.

I'm adhering to the following definitions here:

	L2 handover - a change in link connectivity from one
	radio access point to another as a consequence of mobile
	node movement between radio coverage areas.
	
	L3 handover - a change in mobile IP care-of address as
	a consequence of mobile node movement between one
	subnet and another.


>F-NA can be replaced by a L2 trigger. Maybe we should clarify this better
>in FMIPv6. The information needed for neighbor cache is already
>in HI message. All newAR needs is an indication of arrival.
>

I think the draft needs to clarify this. There are a couple places
in the draft that state that the F-NA is the gate. If that's the
case, then I agree that the handover times in Appendix A may
need to be modified.


>Once MN has a tunnel from oldAR to newCoA, it doesn't have to wait for
>BU/BACk from CN/HA. Packets sent to oldCoA will be tunneled. MN can
>use newCoA as its source address in the outgoing traffic.
>

So the only way this is different from BETH is that the MN uses
its old CoA to send outgoing traffic, saving the 
signalling traffic over the radio channel for establishing the new CoA.
And the routers maintain the tunnel until the MN is ready to
change CoA.


>But this BAck arrival happens at the MN, right? Not at newAR. So,
>how does newAR know this? Sniffing on the network?
>

BU and BACK are destination options, aren't routers allowed to
process destination options? If they can, then they can note
them as the packets go by.

=46rom the message, it would appear that the IESG is pushing towards a
lighter replacement IKE which some folks refer to as the son of IKE.  It
will be interesting to see what they have in mind..

Hello Hemant:

I am reading the mobileip-qos requirement draft again, and I think it
is still missing some clarification and some of my comments on mip-qos
alias were not addressed. Let me explain them here again, and why I think
they should be in the requirement document.

1. I assume the goal of the requirement document is not to provide or point
   to  any particular qos solution for mobile-ip. Yet, at number of cases, in
   the document we have references and examples of RSVP qos mechanism. Is it
   because we do not have any experience or data available for other Qos
   mechanism(such as diffserv) for mobile ip ? Or is it trying to point out
   some of the drawbacks of RSVP in mobileip environment ?
   
   If we discuss problems or merits of qos mechanism, we should  discuss
   that for different mechanisms. May be the examples belong to appendix.
   For example, diffserv seems more appropriate to me in mobileip case, but
   then it may need to have some dynamic service level agreements between
   the nodes where the handover is taking place.
   
   
2. section 3.1, bullet item 2, it states:
    "Of course, if
   the end-to-end path changes at large after handover, the QoS
   mechanism MUST be able to address that in a manner that is
   consistent with the QoS scheme(s) used along the new
   end-to-end packet path."
   
   By "new end-to-end" path it means the path between two communicating nodes.
   Should not it say that Qos mechanism should be established in the 'changed
   or new end-to-end' path depending on the Qos mechanism ?
   
   
3. The scalabality is a mobileip specific qos issue that this requirement
   draft needs to clarify. As JC Martin and I requested the following item in
   our earlier comments to mip-qos alias:
   
   A salability requirement could be that no per MN state should be kept
   in the inner nodes: state should be contained as close as possible to the
    MN. Also : if the QoS Mechanism is using signaling, it should be aggregated
    as close as possible to the MN.

   
4. 
   How about adding a section here for 'inter-technology 
   handoff'. What's our qos requirement there?
   Do we expect it to be transparent as it's happening in IP layer ?  


5. The obvious requirement section is not too obvious to many. Can we clarify?


Thanks!
-Samita

[Hemant] It was argued on the MIP QoS the mailing list that it is not 
sufficient just to quote requirements, but provide some insight into what is 
missing from the current QoS mechanisms. The idea was this would help the 
relevant working groups to focus on the precise missing piece and work out 
the solution. RSVP (intserv or intserv+diffserv(RFC 2998)) is one such QoS 
mechanism that exists as an RFC. That is why the mention of RSVP.

[Hemant] We can put DiffServ in there as well and also quote the point that 
you are mentioning about dynamic service level agreements. Anyway, that work 
has already started in Seamoby in the form of moving diffserv context in the 
context transfer protocol.

[Hemant] There was a concern raised on the language that you are proposing. 
Somebody said that such a language implies that new end-to-end QoS must be 
established. The message that we are sending is that "handovers may change 
end-to-end path", so solution may not only focus only on the local path 
changes. Now  if the QoS mechanism cares about end-to-end path it will have 
to be reinitiated, if not it may ignore the end-to-end change.

[Hemant] This is a general requirement for QoS, even for fixed hosts. Could 
you please explain why it is relevant "only for mobile IP." This draft does 
not want to address requirements that are "common" to both fixed and mobile 
hosts, rather we should focus on requirements that are "exclusively" for 
mobile IP.

[Hemant] The question we should ask is whether inter-technology handover 
apparent at IP layer. Also what is the requirement as such? I think such a 
handover is transparent to IP layer, but I can put that requirement (what is 
it first?) in if WG agrees on it.

[Hemant] Could you please be more specific and point out which item there is 
not obvious and what the confusion might be.

Jim,

Let me rephrase my questions/concerns..

- During a real-time communication, if your MN detects that it has attached to a 
new L2, what does it do? It'd hope that oldAR and newAR are doing BETH and MN 
would do nothing, as I understand. But, what if the newAR is not BETH capable, 
or BETH has failed for some reason. The only way to figure this out is to wait, 
I think. There seems to be no other way, because there's no L3 signalling 
between MN and newAR. And this wait will effect the handoff time, if newAR is 
not doing BETH.

- BU/Back are destination options. Therefore they are only processed by the
destinations, MN/CN/HA. If routers want to take a peek on them, they can do so. 
But, designing the protocol based on sniffing packets on the wire makes me 
worried. One thing, it's not guaranteed that this packet will go through this 
router, as there can be more than one on the link. Secondly, if one day this 
packet is encrypted, or a new flavor of BU/BAck is used, this won't work.

As far as what kind of L? handover this is, I agree this is more like a L2 
handover (at least as far as MN is concerned).

We should clarify the use of L2 triggers in FMIPv6.

It is indeed bad news. But, I'd just like to point out that the position statement
said that a replacement for IKE should be designed (and is being
designed, called Son-of-IKE). That is, a redesign of IPsec AH/ESP
wasn't called for. In the mobile IPv6 case we have already
given up the hope of using IKE to key BUs in the global Internet. 
But we could still use AH/ESP to protect the BUs, BAKE for keying
in the global Internet, and IKE, KINK or Son-of-IKE (when available) for
keying in the Intranet.

Thierry,

When discussing mobile routers/networks in the Mobile IPv6 context I
see the following issues raised by your draft as well as Charlie's
latest additions:

o searching in the binding cache of HA and CN: longest prefix match?
  CAn you have several entries in the binding cache for the same
  mobile node (one for the MR, one for the node itself)?
o MR specific behaviour:
   -should not advertise its moving subnet prefix on the foreign
    network.  However should allow communications between its nodes and
    nodes behind another MR visiting same foreign network, without
    going through any HA.  How?
   -when does MR send BU's to CN's?  How MR knows about the CN's of
    fixed nodes in its moving subnet?
   -it's assumed that the moving subnet prefix is aggregated within
    the home net prefix.  Is it a MUST?
o A new kind of MN?  The MN's attached to the moving subnet, are they
  fixed, do they have a binding cache, do they send binding updates?

Alex

Hello folks,

As noted, I had made an attempt to update the Mobile IPv6
specification towards assisting the problems with mobile
routers.  However, making it into a separate draft looks
like a better idea.  For the base draft, should the prefix
length bits be marked as "reserved"?  The Mobile Router
Prefix Length Sub-Option would be removed, too.

Regards,
Charlie P.

You point out that the network already creates duplicate packets.
For every such occurrence, bicasting becomes quadricasting and
suddenly we have a problem.

Thus, bicasting works better when the rest of the network can be
trusted not to produce duplicate packets.

Put another way, bicasting removes the resiliency which exists
today for TCP traffic.

My conclusion is that any use of bicasting needs to be strictly
limited in time, with well-defined start and stop times.  The
ability to define these start and stop times is crucial, and yet
whenever it is possible to do so, it might equally well be possible
to design protocol so that unicast packets go where they ought to go.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Another point one could consider is that the assumption we would be
better off with bicasting than with any other solution may not
pass some checkpoints, like fast movement thru a sequence > 2
access points. Would this require ">2-casting"? also, bicasting is
implicitly
assuming some movement prediction, to be any different than 
non bicasting based solutions. Clearly, many times tricasting
or quadricasting or ... would be required, when multiple handoff candidates
need to be considered.

Reality is that a mobile node has (at most) one point of attachment 
at a time and other possible points of reachability of the MN
are only point of collection of packets 
that were "in flight" before the MN hooked up to the current point 
of attachment ("Before" is defined w.r.t the time when a HA or a CN 
is updated about the current point of attachment to the internet). 
These point of collection of packets may be
kind enough to forward packets to the current point of attachment 
(and they can be kind only if somebody, most likely upon request 
of the MN, kindly asked to forward packets to some appropriate 
next-hop).

This is to me a model that meets the "sufficient" engineering criterion,
so I'm hesitant to encourage bi(?)casting based solutions.

Hello Alper:

Sorry for jumping in the middle of discussion. 
Please find my inline response.

regards,
ajoy  

During a real-time communication, if your MN detects that it has attached to a new L2, what does it do? It'd hope that oldAR and newAR are doing BETH and MN would do nothing, as I understand. But, what if the newAR is not BETH capable, or BETH has failed for some reason. The only way to figure this out is to wait, I think. There seems to be no other way, because there's no L3 signaling between MN and newAR. And this wait will effect the handoff time, if newAR is not doing BETH.

ajoy: If BETH is deployed in particular access technology, it is assumed that neighboring routers will be BETH capable. Neighboring routers have to understand same protocol to support fast handover. For example, if neighboring routers do not support same protocol, we cannot support context transfer, the MN has to negotiate context. This is true for any protocol in general. If BETH fails due to any reason, MN will detect service disruption because real time traffic flow will stop. MN can use this information as a trigger to acquire new COA. If you do not support BETH in low data rate channel, the service of user will be affected every time MN moves from one AR to other. Which one you will choose ?

Jim,

Let me rephrase my questions/concerns..

- During a real-time communication, if your MN detects that it has attached to a 
new L2, what does it do? It'd hope that oldAR and newAR are doing BETH and MN 
would do nothing, as I understand. But, what if the newAR is not BETH capable, 
or BETH has failed for some reason. The only way to figure this out is to wait, 
I think. There seems to be no other way, because there's no L3 signalling 
between MN and newAR. And this wait will effect the handoff time, if newAR is 
not doing BETH.

- BU/Back are destination options. Therefore they are only processed by the
destinations, MN/CN/HA. If routers want to take a peek on them, they can do so. 
But, designing the protocol based on sniffing packets on the wire makes me 
worried. One thing, it's not guaranteed that this packet will go through this 
router, as there can be more than one on the link. Secondly, if one day this 
packet is encrypted, or a new flavor of BU/BAck is used, this won't work.

As far as what kind of L? handover this is, I agree this is more like a L2 
handover (at least as far as MN is concerned).

We should clarify the use of L2 triggers in FMIPv6.

In fact, it's probably just the opposite: first of
all, it's not really an indictment of IPsec (2401,
2402, 2406) so much as an indictment of IKE. What
that says is that the _last_ thing that MIP should
be doing is positing extensions or new key
distribution protocols when the people who
actually understand this are having serious
trouble getting it right.

I agree with Jari. With the potential exception of
nuking AH (which is discussed and re-discussed
often; Steve Bellovin may make one final attempt
to kill it. I hope.), base 2401 is not what is
really at issue. Indeed, I just spoke to Marcus
about KINK's reuse of IKE phase 2 (quick mode)
and he thought that that was OK as is.

It's main mode (aka the authentication phase)
that needs simplification. This shouldn't be
surprising since it's the Really Hard Problem.

In general, it would be better to steer clear of 
"better" or "worse" wrt wireless (as if that were
a monolithic thing anyway). RSVP as a general
qos signaling mechanism is what we have now, and
it seems quite reasonable to point out things
which are not going to work well. The same thing
obviously needs to be done with diffserv too, but
you wouldn't expect nearly as many issues since
it's mainly a L2/L3 queuing problem which can be
safely brushed aside :-)

Another reason for why MR should be stand alone. How one properly
secures and authorizes a BU for an entire prefix would seem to be to
add significant additional non-trivial issues to consider.

It would seem to me that the address ownership problem is plenty hard
for just one address. Trying to extend it to the case where a node
(i.e, the MR) is asserting to a CN that the CN should tunnel *all*
packets covered by an entire prefix would seem to be even harder.

   I doubt it. While I agree that mobile routers ought
   to be broken out, I'd be very, very afraid of any
   security solution which made a distinction between
   /32 (/128)) and a smaller prefix. They really are
   the exact same routing authorization problem (eg,
   something wants you to modify your routing entry
   for prefix X).

To my mind, signaling/not singaling and
bicasting/buffering are orthogonal. In fact,
bicasting and buffering aren't even in opposition
to one another; you may or may not buffer bicasted
packets.

Authorization seems harder (but perhaps I'm wrong). There are already
drafts that describe ways of for a particular node to assert it "owns"
address X, and then later have that node reassert that it can still
prove that it is the same entity that made the assertion earlier, even
when its address has changed. So, here we have one address being able
to assert that was used by the same entity as a previous addresss.

This would seem to me to be a rather different (and even orthogonal)
problem to that of a router being able to assert that is is authorized
to "intercept" all traffic covered by a prefix.

How can one prove to a correspondent node that some router foo, is
authorized to have all traffic destined to (say) MIT rerouted through
it?

   I think that the concept that needs to be recognized is
   that a host receiving a binding update is conceptually
   a *router*, not a host per se. That is, it creates
   and maintains routing tables. As such, there's really
   no difference between the actions which one performs
   on a /128 vs. a /8, say. Or at least that's how I'd
   view something that causes you to FIB entires, create
   tunnel interfacess, etc.

   Well, the two methods being floated right now are

   1) strong authentication based on some form of strong
      crypto.
   2) weak authentication based on a return routability
      test.

   It seems pretty clear that (1) will suffer the same
   scaling limitations as /128's in a world of Jetson
   car based mobile routers... that seems to leave (2)
   unless we have some sort of breakthrough alternative
   that's neither (1) or (2); unless R, S, A, D, or H
   have another miracle up their sleaves, I'm not real
   confident about that though.

   Maybe this is a case where the security realities
   inform the protocol design rather than the more
   usual reverse? Naw... never happen. :-)

Charlie,
your comments seem to be unrelated to my comment.
I was merely commenting on what looked like a statement that IKE can be
used to create security associations for something other that ESP and AH.
Thus my comment had no direct association with mobile IPv6.

Jim -- 

I hope that this is obvious, but whether the user
experiences a blip or not is dependent on the
length of the jitter buffer. If you have long
jitter buffer, you can smooth out blips like
handover delays quite nicely, so it's not
necessarily the user experience per se. This comes
at the expense of added e2e delay, but it's
probably not linearly additive with point sources
of delay. That is, the sum of the worst case
jitter per hop >> average jitter experienced.

That said, I think it's worth considering the
effect of the rather large and potentially
frequent effect of handoffs and/or buffering, but
I don't think it's worthwhile to think of this in
terms of absoulte numbers at individual hops since
jitter buffer hueristics along with intra-speech
spurt repositioning of the playback delay can go
a very long way to smoothing a lot of network
kruftiness. (this would be even more true if
you have application layer triggers in your
jitter adjustments on impending handoffs.)

   If we burned a new protocol number, that's correct.
   Maybe I'm the only one who has a lot of reluctance
   of burning protocol numbers...

   BAKE & friends can only establish a key if they do
   an ephemeral Diffie Hellman, which according to the 
   analysis draft is discouraged. As I've said earlier,
   since we have the opportunity to have soft state
   with weak authorization, we should seize the
   opportunity since it makes life much, much more
   robust on many fronts.

Hi Alper,

>

As Ajoy pointed out, if the real time packet stream fails, the MN can
simply go ahead and establish its CoA. The point of BETH is to eliminate
L3 signalling so the radio link is free for real time traffic. If 
there is no real time traffic, then the MN can go ahead and get a new
CoA.

But the issue you bring up about a router not being BETH capable obviously
holds for FMIPv6 too. In that case, the MN learns that it can't do
FMIPv6 because it doesn't get a reply for RqstPrxyRtAdv, but by that
time it could already be on the new  AR. Though I dislike adding knobs
where they might not be needed (because they add complexity) perhaps
the admission control procedure needs to inform the MN about what
handover options it has. Better would be to simply make fast handover
a required part of MIPv6, to avoid having the situation where a 
router doesn't support it (in the long run).

OK. Perhaps an explicit BU to the new AR when the new CoA is totally in
place is the right way to go. 


>We should clarify the use of L2 triggers in FMIPv6.
>

Yes, while I agree with trying to make it general, if there are abstract
L2 triggers, it should be possible to write the draft such that there
is no dependence on a specific L2. As it now is, there are implicit
assumptions about L3 obtaining handover sequencing information that
I think might make it difficult to implement by someone who was
not part of the initial design group.

This may be true, from the specific view of the mechanics of
installing a route into the routing tables of a local device, route
lookup while forwarding a packet, etc. That is not the point I'm
trying to make.

My question concerns *authorization*, not authentication.  If a CN
gets a BU from a node claiming to be a router for a prefix (e.g., all
of MIT), how does the CN decide that this is really a legitimate route
entry to install, as opposed to an intruder attempting to hijact MIT's
traffic?

Indeed. One needs to understand the security requirements prior to
designing the protocol, as some protocol designs may turn out to be
inherently flawed once the security requirements are understood.

   Both /128 and /8 are about authentication and authorization.
   The main difference seems to be the stakes. If I subvert
   a /128, I only dork one node. If I subvert a /8 it's... more.
   The question is whether either is more or less acceptible.
   Is /128 ok, but /64 not? How about /48? I rather doubt that
   devine artificial boundaries is going to be especially 
   productive.

   Considering that routing table update at a distance
   is a fundamental shift in the current security
   practices of the internet, I'd say that this is
   pretty important problem to be considered, and may
   very well be the lynch pin. Indeed, it's quite possible
   that if the requirements are significantly different than what is
   currently being proposed with the varoius return
   routability test, it's not solvable at all within the
   current MIP design. It would probably be nice to know that
   sooner rather than later.

[my mail server was down. I dont seem to receive these e-mails. following
them from the mobile-ip archieve..]

Hi Ajoy,

I understand that the BETH should be deployed in a domain, therefore
neighbor
ARs in this domain will be BETH capable. But we cannot claim "all" the
neighbor
routers will be BETH capable, as the whole Internet is not a single domain,
and
we don't expect every ARs to support BETH.

Therefore, I cannot speculate how often but, MN will attach to
BETH-incapable
ARs.

It's perfectly fine if handoff performance is better when BETH kicks in, and
the performance is as good as stock-MIPv6 whenever BETH is not available.

But, I think performance of handoff is worse than stock-MIPv6 when MN does a
BETH-to-nonBETH handoff. First it has to wait and detect that BETH didn't
work.
Only after than it can start stock-MIPv6 handoff. I don't know how much
delay
this introduces as the draft doesn't outline the process in this case. So,
how
soon can we detect a real-time flow is cut?

Also once the MN enters a non-BETH domain, it better "learn" that this is a
non-BETH domain, so it doesn't get hit at every handoff in this domain.

alper




Hello Alper:

Sorry for jumping in the middle of discussion.
Please find my inline response.

regards,
ajoy

During a real-time communication, if your MN detects that it has attached to
a new L2, what does it do? It'd hope that oldAR and newAR are doing BETH and
MN would do nothing, as I understand. But, what if the newAR is not BETH
capable, or BETH has failed for some reason. The only way to figure this out
is to wait, I think. There seems to be no other way, because there's no L3
signaling between MN and newAR. And this wait will effect the handoff time,
if newAR is not doing BETH.

ajoy: If BETH is deployed in particular access technology, it is assumed
that
neighboring routers will be BETH capable. Neighboring routers have to
understand same protocol to support fast handover. For example, if
neighboring routers do not support same protocol, we cannot support context
transfer, the MN has to negotiate context. This is true for any protocol in
general. If BETH fails due to any reason, MN will detect service disruption
because real time traffic flow will stop. MN can use this information as a
trigger to acquire new COA. If you do not support BETH in low data rate
channel, the service of user will be affected every time MN moves from one
AR
to other. Which one you will choose ?

Is there such a big need for sending BUs covering an entire prefix
rather than /128? If a MH behind the MR needs to update a CN, there is
pretty low probability that another MH behind the MR would be talking to
the same CN and thus send a BU to that. So each MH should take care of
sending BUs to CNs, and the MR should not aggregate them. So, we don't
need to allow more than /128.

   This depends a whole lot on whether MH behind MR
   is aware of its mobility. If it's not, then MH 
   clearly won't be sending any BU's at all. There's
   quite a bit of appeal to not having the MH's 
   realize they are mobile (what for example would
   happen when an aircraft carrier full of PC's
   moved it's attachment point?).

   This is a pretty fundamental question that needs
   to be answered, and needs to be evaluated in the
   context of renumbering and security.

Hi Jim,

Please see my responses below with prefix "aey >".

As Ajoy pointed out, if the real time packet stream fails, the MN can
simply go ahead and establish its CoA. The point of BETH is to eliminate

aey > I think the key here is, how soon can the MN detect "real time
packet stream failed"? If BETH is not available, and until this detection
takes place, MN is not reachable. Only after this is detected, stock-MIPv6
can kick in. And this is even slower than doing stock-MIPv6 as soon as MN
attaches to new link. This is my main concern.


L3 signalling so the radio link is free for real time traffic. If
there is no real time traffic, then the MN can go ahead and get a new
CoA.

But the issue you bring up about a router not being BETH capable obviously
holds for FMIPv6 too. In that case, the MN learns that it can't do
FMIPv6 because it doesn't get a reply for RqstPrxyRtAdv, but by that
time it could already be on the new  AR. Though I dislike adding knobs

aey > Therefore by the time MN attaches to new link, it knows FMIPv6 didn't
work, and start stock-MIPv6 handoff immediately. In BETH case, MN needs to
wait until it detects BETH didn't work. So, FMIPv6, and even stock MIPv6,
works
faster than BETH in this case. And I think this is not a rare case, as not
all
the routers will support BETH.



where they might not be needed (because they add complexity) perhaps
the admission control procedure needs to inform the MN about what
handover options it has. Better would be to simply make fast handover
a required part of MIPv6, to avoid having the situation where a
router doesn't support it (in the long run).


aey > I'm not sure if we can expect all routers to support a specific
handoff mechanism, but having a L2 capability than can convey the
"L3 handoff mechanism" in the link-up trigger could be useful.

OK. Perhaps an explicit BU to the new AR when the new CoA is totally in
place is the right way to go.


>We should clarify the use of L2 triggers in FMIPv6.
>

Yes, while I agree with trying to make it general, if there are abstract
L2 triggers, it should be possible to write the draft such that there
is no dependence on a specific L2. As it now is, there are implicit
assumptions about L3 obtaining handover sequencing information that
I think might make it difficult to implement by someone who was
not part of the initial design group.

aey > Now we have the L2 requirements draft, I think we can re-work
the L2 wording in the FMIPv6 draft (Gopal, are you reading this? :)

I can see two quite different paths to go:

1. Allow only the simpliest mobile networks. They have one MR (which is
single point of failure) and the MHs behind are in fact only Hs (i.e.
not mobile-aware). MR takes care of the mobility and maybe use a
bi-directional tunnel between itself and HA.
draft-ernst-mobileip-v6-network-0x focuses on this.

2. Make things end-to-end. Let MNs in the mobile network be aware of
that the network is mobile. At a higher cost, that is. Hopefully this
can also take into consideration multiple MRs, MNs leaving the mobile
network, multihoming, etc. The requirements draft doesn't exclude this
case.

Hello Alper,
                      To achieve the BETH support for real-time traffic streams,
the assumption is that the neighboring ARs are BETH capable. BETH capability is
required to be installed via system engineering to support the handoff of
real-time traffic streams.
                      In the absence of BETH, the stock MIPv6 procedures are
applicable. In the case that BETH was only partially deployed, the impact on the
handoff of real-time traffic streams would be less severe than if only the stock
MIPv6 procedures were available. In the specific cases, where a handoff occurred
from a BETH capable AR to a non-BETH capable AR, the additional latency incurred
in the detection and switching to the stock MIPv6 procedures could be used as a
trigger for network management to re-engineer the system for BETH deployment.

Regards,
   Sebastian

I think Alper makes a good point. We have a number of different handoff
mechanisms by now and the mobile node needs to know what is going on. IP
Layer handoffs, like MIPv6 do provide information about the network's
capabilities in the Router Advertisement and MIPv4 is using Foreign Agent
Adverts to do the same.

In the case of BETH where L2 triggers are used instead of IP messages the
information about what the network supports could also be part of the L2
triggers. e.g.: a BETH capable network could announce its capability in an
L2 trigger to the MN...This way during a handoff the IP layer in the MN will
know that it should not do anything since BETH is working...lack of such a
trigger would make the MN use traditional MIP mechanisms to handoff.

Thoughts?

Hello Alper,
                      To achieve the BETH support for real-time traffic
streams,
the assumption is that the neighboring ARs are BETH capable. BETH capability
is
required to be installed via system engineering to support the handoff of
real-time traffic streams.
                      In the absence of BETH, the stock MIPv6 procedures are
applicable. In the case that BETH was only partially deployed, the impact on
the
handoff of real-time traffic streams would be less severe than if only the
stock
MIPv6 procedures were available. In the specific cases, where a handoff
occurred
from a BETH capable AR to a non-BETH capable AR, the additional latency
incurred
in the detection and switching to the stock MIPv6 procedures could be used
as a
trigger for network management to re-engineer the system for BETH
deployment.

Regards,
   Sebastian

The scenario you present is only one of so many.  PC's on the seats in
a plane will probably do mostly browsing to various servers.  But
brake sensors in a train will send data to one fixed surveillance PC
at the closest station.  This comes down to sending many BU's to the
same CN.  An MR would be useful.

I don't question an MR would be useful. The question is what functions
we put in it.

For me, what it boils down to is that I prefer not to have some nodes
perform operations on behalf of other nodes. It's needed at times, but
hopefully in static configurations (a home agent is rather static). I
don't see a mobile network as (always) a static entity, so I would look
for other solutions.

Also, the trust model for a mobile network with an MR doing registration
on behalf of MNs is more complex than one where each MN is out on its
own.

As far as Mobile IPv6 is concerned toghether with the
process of sending BUs to HA and CNs, yes there is an
AUTHORIZATION issue as previously debated on this
mailing list about one year ago. The authorization
problem is exactly the reason why our draft "Prefix
Scope Binding Updates"
(draft-ernst-mobileip-v6-network-02.txt - sorry that I
keep pointing to my drafts but I don't want the people
to be confused about which draft I am talking about -
there are 2 of them)was not widely accepted, and also
the reason why I advocate any MIPv6 extensions about
network mobility support to be kept away from the
MIPv6 specification.

Anyway, t6here is a section in our draft that is
tackling with the AUTHORIZATION issue.  Our view is
that what we need a certificate that says that a
router is AUTHORIZED to send a BU for a particular
prefix. The section is rather short, but it is here to
open the discussion. I would therefore be more than
happy to have comments on this; that would avoid
everyone to keep repeating and arguying the same
things.  Having feedback on a draft is the reason to
write a draft, If we wanted to keep the discussion for
ourselves we wouldn't have written it.  Then, all you
interested people, please comment on the draft. If
there is something wrong, please speak up.

MN is quite a confusing term to me.  I used to speak
about MNNs in general, MNN being one of MR - LFN - VMN
- LMN. See my requirement draft.  The distinction is
useful to avoid confusion - I have noticed we don't
always speak about the same thing.

Then, do you want all MNNs in the network to register
a 128-128 binding with the MR's HA ?  Sounds odd to
me.

Yes there is a big need if you want:
- the MR's Home Agent to redirect all packets intended
to nodes behind the MR
- to limit the number of BUs in the network
- to keep mobility management relative to MR's
mobility away from the nodes behind the MR
- other ...

Ok, here's the problem I see. What gives me the
right to assert a routing table modification for a
prefix larger than I'm authorized to route? The
current crop of proposals expect that if I can
route back to where the BU came from (either to
the MN or HA), that is sufficient check to accept
the BU. However, that only guarantees that I can
currently protect one address: the source address
of the BU. Thus if I am a resident on x/8, but am
only authorized for x.y.z/24, I better not be able
to send a BU for x/8. With the current return
routability proposals, I don't believe this is
possible. Nor does having a home agent
*necessarily* help: the home agent may be in
collusion with the MN and not trustable (think
of some script kiddie with their home linux box 
acting as a home agent with their hacked up 
mobile router). 

As far as I can tell, the only thing that
knows about whether the scope is too broad
is some router, potentially serveral hops
upstream, of the home agent. This is a problem.

I'll go on record here as voicing some scalability
concerns with the prospect of large server banks
with potentially large binding caches. These are
essentially unaggregated host routes across the
Internet with is sort of unsettling. This is a
general concern with regular BU's, I'll admit, but
it sort of points out that the CN is not
necessarily the best place to send a BU from a
scaling or messaging standpoint. Indeed, it seems
that the optimal place to send a BU is with the
joining router in the path between the HA and MN's
current CoA.

Alper,

The AR can also send a RtAdv to the MN, rather than the MN waiting. This
would probably be quicker.

George, 

I think it would probably be better to have the network tell the MN during
admission rather than on each handover. More information == more radio
bandwidth to transmit it, regardless if its at L2 or L3. When the
MN falls off the edge of a trust domain and has to redo admission, then
it probably is facing a lengthy transaction anyway so there is no
harm in delaying it do obtain a CoA.

Ok, here's the problem I see. What gives me the
right to assert a routing table modification for a
prefix larger than I'm authorized to route? The
current crop of proposals expect that if I can
route back to where the BU came from (either to
the MN or HA), that is sufficient check to accept
the BU. However, that only guarantees that I can
currently protect one address: the source address
of the BU. Thus if I am a resident on x/8, but am
only authorized for x.y.z/24, I better not be able
to send a BU for x/8. With the current return
routability proposals, I don't believe this is
possible. Nor does having a home agent
*necessarily* help: the home agent may be in
collusion with the MN and not trustable (think
of some script kiddie with their home linux box 
acting as a home agent with their hacked up 
mobile router). 

As far as I can tell, the only thing that
knows about whether the scope is too broad
is some router, potentially serveral hops
upstream, of the home agent. This is a problem.

I'll go on record here as voicing some scalability
concerns with the prospect of large server banks
with potentially large binding caches. These are
essentially unaggregated host routes across the
Internet with is sort of unsettling. This is a
general concern with regular BU's, I'll admit, but
it sort of points out that the CN is not
necessarily the best place to send a BU from a
scaling or messaging standpoint. Indeed, it seems
that the optimal place to send a BU is with the
joining router in the path between the HA and MN's
current CoA.

Alper,

I thought your argument was that it was too complicated to do the bundling
for several reasons (PMTU, etc.). My counter-argument was that there are
many things that one could position as complex and I named a few indicating
that one might withdraw support for these functions using the same
reasoning. 

Specially let us consider the PMTU issue. If you consider this PMTU issue to
be that complex, then I deduce that you consider any other functionality
such as: ESP, AH, Tunneling etc.. that has to deal with a similar situation,
as complex.

Another point of misunderstand seems to be that you believe I was saying
that the BU should wait until there is another packet to send to that
address before sending the BU. 

What I was saying is that there are many implementation choices where it
would be quite useful:

For instance, it would be efficient to bundle a binding update with the
first application, reservation or transport datagram destined to a specific
destination. 

Also, if a host did implement some sort of egress queue and packets to
destinations were on it when a mobility event occured, perhaps the queue
should be processed in a smart fashion such that the BUs are bundled. I
agree that not all hosts will be/are this complex.

I believe you should see now that depending on the particular case of
implementation, the complexity is varied. I hope you see that the first case
is not that complex at all.

Clearly the protocol documention should not have to discuss such
implementation realms but perhaps the documentation should have some verbage
about what processing is mandatory and what is optional. For instance there
might be a statement somewhere that says if a CN supports the BU then it
MUST also support the de-bundling of it.

Thanks,

Glenn

Of course not :) You seem to be picking on my "implementation complexity"
point. 
By the way, I'm talking about piggybacking binding messages, not talking
about 
route optimization.

Implementation complexity by itself is not the only issue. The other points
I 
have raised was the performance hit due to handling  "binding message should

wait until we have a packet to send to the same destination, or a timer goes

off"... It's hard to say which one is more important: saving bandwidth or 
processing power.

And the PMTU issue...

You haven't addressed my last two issues..

All I'm saying is that there are also downsides to piggybacking. It's not
all 
that great.

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>Alper,</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>I thought your argument was that it was too =
complicated to do the bundling for several reasons (PMTU, etc.). My =
counter-argument was that there are many things that one could position =
as complex and I named a few indicating that one might withdraw support =
for these functions using the same reasoning. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>Specially let us consider the PMTU issue. If you =
consider this PMTU issue to be that complex, then I deduce that you =
consider any other functionality such as: ESP, AH, Tunneling etc.. that =
has to deal with a similar situation, as complex.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>Another point of misunderstand seems to be that you =
believe I was saying that the BU should wait until there is another =
packet to send to that address before sending the BU. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>What I was saying is that there are many =
implementation choices where it would be quite useful:</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>For instance, it would be efficient to bundle a =
binding update with the first application, reservation or transport =
datagram destined to a specific destination. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>Also, if a host did implement some sort of egress =
queue and packets to destinations were on it when a mobility event =
occured, perhaps the queue should be processed in a smart fashion such =
that the BUs are bundled. I agree that not all hosts will be/are this =
complex.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>I believe you should see now that depending on the =
particular case of implementation, the complexity is varied. I hope you =
see that the first case is not that complex at all.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>Clearly the protocol documention should not have to =
discuss such implementation realms but perhaps the documentation should =
have some verbage about what processing is mandatory and what is =
optional. For instance there might be a statement somewhere that says =
if a CN supports the BU then it MUST also support the de-bundling of =
it.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>Hi Glenn,</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; Ya know alper, route optimization, in general, =
certainly complicates things.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; In fact mobility&nbsp; complicates things. =
Perhaps we just shouldn't do any of</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; it. This is all just too complicated. Let's =
just keep building stagnated</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; stupid routers and hosts - not to mention =
access specific single point of</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; failure anchored systems.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>Of course not :) You seem to be picking on my =
&quot;implementation complexity&quot; point. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>By the way, I'm talking about piggybacking binding =
messages, not talking about </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>route optimization.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>Implementation complexity by itself is not the only =
issue. The other points I </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>have raised was the performance hit due to =
handling&nbsp; &quot;binding message should </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>wait until we have a packet to send to the same =
destination, or a timer goes </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>off&quot;... It's hard to say which one is more =
important: saving bandwidth or </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>processing power.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>And the PMTU issue...</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>You haven't addressed my last two issues..</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>All I'm saying is that there are also downsides to =
piggybacking. It's not all </FONT>

piggybacking has some other issues </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; associated as well :) </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; First of all, it'll complicate your =
implementation. You should queue your</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; Mobile </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; IPv6 signalling messages, setup timers amd age =
them ... Basically your </FONT>

Ok, here's the problem I see. What gives me the
right to assert a routing table modification for a
prefix larger than I'm authorized to route? The
current crop of proposals expect that if I can
route back to where the BU came from (either to
the MN or HA), that is sufficient check to accept
the BU. However, that only guarantees that I can
currently protect one address: the source address
of the BU. Thus if I am a resident on x/8, but am
only authorized for x.y.z/24, I better not be able
to send a BU for x/8. With the current return
routability proposals, I don't believe this is
possible. Nor does having a home agent
*necessarily* help: the home agent may be in
collusion with the MN and not trustable (think
of some script kiddie with their home linux box 
acting as a home agent with their hacked up 
mobile router). 

As far as I can tell, the only thing that
knows about whether the scope is too broad
is some router, potentially serveral hops
upstream, of the home agent. This is a problem.

I'll go on record here as voicing some scalability
concerns with the prospect of large server banks
with potentially large binding caches. These are
essentially unaggregated host routes across the
Internet with is sort of unsettling. This is a
general concern with regular BU's, I'll admit, but
it sort of points out that the CN is not
necessarily the best place to send a BU from a
scaling or messaging standpoint. Indeed, it seems
that the optimal place to send a BU is with the
joining router in the path between the HA and MN's
current CoA.

PS; about selectors, the cleanest solution is to use a new (i.e.
to be allocated by IANA) payload type, aka final next header value.
Expensive (8 bit space) but nobody should be able to find a technical
objection.
PPS: I'd like to be able to use IKE, KINK, AAA, ... if I want:
there is a difference between "cannot use" and "should not rely on".

   Let's get an agreement on this: the MN
   can use AH without needing a new nxt header

   - No piggybacking was allowed

   - The IPsec selectors granularity was refined
    to see the BU option not the Home address option. 
   
=> this is not so simple because the destination option header
is not a final one (i.e. the next header value is not a valid
protocol). So you have to do more than to convert the port field
in a profile field as we 'll have to do for ICMPv6 (to get a profile
for all ICMPv6 packets but not the neighbor discovery for instance).
This seems to be far easier to implement than to make it acceptable (:-)!

I see,  "should be"  may be restrictive. I understood  after I read
your explanation. Do you think, if you put your explanation there, it might
avoid any future confusion ?

Yes, it might be a general issue in IPqos area. But, mobileip will be most
affected in large scale deployment. Having a direction, would have helped.

Offhand I can see bandwidth capacity ( say between 3G and wireless LAN)
variation between two netwroks and also the latency in two different
technology. The qos application may be aware of these during inter-technology
handover. It may not affect the IP layer and if so, then perhaps we may want
to mention that or leave it open ?(WG may help us on that decision, as you
suggested).

The draft has a section on obvious requirement where it states that
qos solution for Mobile IP should satisfy obvious requirements 
such as scalability, security, conservation of bandwitdth....etc.

It's not clear to me whether the above listed requirements are
a must requirement. I understand it's quite difficult to 
quantify them as the answers may be unknown at this point.
I'd say, it would be good to list a minimum set of items to
consider in the Qos solution as obvious (basic?) requirements.
(the language "such as" appears to be for examples only)

Hello James,


Along your theory of reducing signalling over air interface, how does the BUs
sent out from MN after a new CoA. Does MN send individual BUs to all CNs that it
is talking during hand off?

I mean, if the MN has "m" CNs, then there will be "m" BUs per CN. Is there a
way, a HA can act as splitter and relay for BUs.

Hello folks,

One important thing to arrange is that mobile nodes should be allowed
to deliver Binding Updates "on-demand", and not upon every change
of care-of address, and not immediately after acquisition of a care-of
address.  This would in many case allow better a reduction in signalling.
There are reasonable ways to implement this, and I believe that the
ways to do this are also friendly to implementing piggybacking.

I think there is also value to allowing a mobile node to send fewer
packets, but of course this depends on traffic patterns and the mobility
factor.  Increasing the burden on bandwidth imposed by sending
Binding Updates effectively reduces their applicability, perhaps only
by some percentage, but percentage would be significant for some
bandwidths and traffic patterns.

Piggybacking has not been implemented much, but I think it has
enough advantages that it should be retained for improving the
future performance of the protocol.  Furthermore, according to
recent comments, the current state of implementation for Mobile
IPv6 is not the prime motivator for retaining or deleting protocol
features.  In fact, now it seems that no implementation is required
to attain Proposed Standard.

Regards,
Charlie P.

The MN has to send out BUs only if it changes its CoA so it can reduce
signalling by not changing its CoA unless it has time. Once it decides
to change its CoA, the number of BUs will depend on whether or not
there are any outstanding CNs. The MN may wait until there are no
outstanding CNs, in which case it must only send a BU to the HA. 
If there are CNs, the presence or absence of LMM will determine
how many BUs need to be sent.

I don't follow. Unless it piggybacks, the MN must send one BU per CN/CoA, or?
Assuming it has one CoA, then it must send one BU per CN, plus one to
the HA.

There has been alot of talk about handover between two different technology
interfaces over the last year, and it has been used as a justification 
for alot of work in both Seamoby and MIP WGs. However, it is entirely
unclear to me exactly how this would work. For example, it seems to me
that to handover between an interface running on one radio link
configured with the global home address and an active CoA to another
interface which is unconfigured, the MN would have to effectively
transfer the global home address from the active interface to the
unconfigured interface, then obtain a new CoA on the new interface.
But, presumably  the home address was registered in the home network
associated with a particular radio link technology. Does this imply that there
must also be a heterogeneous technology network back in the home
network? Are there any security implications of this? If the 
MN is authenticated through one interface, perhaps including
L2 authentication, what would be needed to transfer that to
the second interface? And would that matter to the binding between
the L2 address and global home address back in the home network?

There are probably alot of other details involved in doing heterogenous
technology handover. Maybe I'm just being too paranoid, but I think it 
would be prudent to actually figure out how it would work from a systems 
perspective before we go further in using heterogeneous handover as a 
justification for adding various features or removing them. Otherwise, we 
may end up with lots of features that basically don't reflect reality. A 
simple, clear description of how heterogeneous handover would work is needed,
IMHO.

Hi Alper,

As mentioned yesterday in the WG meeting, if the AR is not BETH-capable,
then it has a responsibility to inform the MN via a RtAdv that the
MN has moved, as soon as the L2 trigger is received. This is actually
better than the standard MIPv6 algorithm. If the router doesn't support
an L2 trigger, then either it uses the standard MIPv6 algorithm and
periodically sends out a RtAdv, or, as Ajoy mentioned, the MN detects
that its real time stream is interrupted and requests the RtAdv. 

In general, if the network operator wants to have high performance,
they must have equipment to support it, and must arrange for interoperation
with neighboring administrative domains so high performance handover can happen.
This is not any different from other areas, such as Diffsrv. A mobile node
that runs off the edge of a network of Diffsrv routers is going to
end up having its real time traffic slow down to best effort. There
is no way, in protocol design, to make poor network engineering impossible.

I can speak from an implementation perspective. In the Ericsson MIPv6
contribution to KAME we used CoAs bound to physical interfaces, while
the home address would be bound to a virtual interface (say loopback).

The MN would be considered "home" whenever any of the interfaces was at
the home subnet. No particular interface was associated with the home
subnet.

On the other hand, the home address must belong to some ISP/operator.
That ISP must provide a home agent and an ip address, and a CoA when the
MN is connected to other than the home subnet. Other ISPs that are used
are only access providers, and would give the MN its CoA. This of course
would cause political problems. Who are the ISPs that are willing to be
access providers only, and who will be providing home agent and home
address as well?

Another approach is to have a home address for every interface that the
MN uses. If MN has a cellular interface, it will have a home address
from the cellular operator. If the MN also has a WLAN interface, it will
have a second home address from the WLAN ISP. But now, which home
address will the MN use? The MN will in practice have two identities.
Should it register both? Both registrations would use the same CoA if
only one access is available.

Sorry, I didn't have your draft at hand. I admit that I was using weak
definitions. I should really stick to your definitions.

The MNNs in the mobile network doesn't have the same HA as the MR. They
can have, but in general they could be VMNs with some arbitrary HA, or
be LMN and use some router on the mobile network itself (MR for
instance) as HA. The latter sounds like introducing a nesting problem.

Back to your question: I haven't studied the problem in detail, so I
can't say that all nodes in the mobile network (all MMNs) should use the
same HA. However, if they do, as you suggest, then I don't see a problem
doing prefix registrations. The HA at least should know what prefixes
are delegated to certain MRs. Or, each MNN could register to that HA on
its own, but that would be a waste of signalling.

I agree, if you can convince me that all nodes behind the MR should use
that HA.

Depending on the mobile-awareness the MNNs have, you can do different
things here. Mobile-aware MNNs could send /128 to CNs, mobile-unaware
MNNs could let MR send entire mobile network prefix to CNs.

PS. I know v6-network-01.txt doesn't deal with MNNs that are moving with
regards to the MR. The monetv6-00.txt does addresses it though. I just
don't want to rule out these possibilities at this stage.

So, if you have to give an answer, you would say "Traceroute" works with Mobile IP. Is that right?

Yes. You are right.
But I  think, To know Intermediate nodes informaiton from HA to FA
is not meaningless for security.

Assume there is bad guy(?) that want to do replay attack or IP packet spoofing...etc.
IF CN know whole node on tunnel, CN can prepare against a possible attack and some bad nodes.

My subject is route tracing of tunnel is significant and certain way to know Intermediate nodes is needed.

Hi.

Yes, the question is that whether CN want to know the intermedia nodes in path
from HA to FA where CN's packet is forwarded in tunneling.
I think the MN is always on "Home Network" for CN's point. That's what Mobile IP
provide to nodes. Moreover it is not possible for CN to know where MN is located 
without routing optimization. If so, Intermediate nodes informaiton from HA to FA
is meaningless to CN. I think...

What I advocate is that fixed nodes within the mobile
network (LMNs) are not changing their own attachment
point as a result of the MR's mobility.   Then, they
should be mobility-un-aware (if you want me to argue
whether they should be mobility aware or not, I can). 
Then, they don't have a HA, and shouldn't themselves
register the careof address of the MR to the MR's HA. 
Then, here is the need for a prefix registration.

Of course, you may allow visiting mobile nodes that
enters the mobile network (e.g. a train), what I call
VMNs.  This is a nested mobility instance.  These
nodes have their own HA, and it's not MR's HA.   VMNs
need to register with their HA, but what address ?
If they operate Mobile IPv6, they would register a
careof address that belongs to the mobile network,
i.e. an address that is only topologically correct
when the MR is attached on its home link.   Packet
would transit through the MR's HA, i.e. not optimal
routing unless you provide VMN's CN with the MR's
careof address too.   Alternatively, you may want to
use HMIPv6 Extended Mode where VMN obtains a more
topologically correct address.

I don't say all, I'm just saying that the most general
case is where MNNs are only fixed nodes.  To me, I can
see more instances where MNNs are fixed (LFNs) than
mobile (VMNs).  In any case, there will always be LFNs
in a mobile network, not necessarily VMNs. Even in a
train. 

May be  you generalize the "VMN" case too much

You are not wrong, but I would be happy to hear from
you what address you put in the BU if MNNs send the BU
itself.

I do not want to rule these possibilities out either,
but I want to point out that this is a bit more
complicated in face of nested mobility. 
v6-network-02.txt keeps things simpler, and does not
pretend to rule anything out.   Draft monetv6-00 is
more important and aims to address all possibilities.

Hi James,

The handover should be done in two phases (at least).
The downstairs handover between access networks is down
first and allowed temporarily by the foreign hosting 
network, i.e. the mobile is given a grace period to 
do its SeaMoby CT, BETH, FMIPv6 stuff, and only after
this occurs "smoothly/softly/seamlessly/gently" does
the upstairs handover between administrative domains
occur.

Jim,

This is a good subject to discuss. Although I don't see any issues with
this,
it'd be good to see if everybody agrees, and if there are any issues we are
missing.

comments start with "aey >"...

I can speak from an implementation perspective. In the Ericsson MIPv6
contribution to KAME we used CoAs bound to physical interfaces, while
the home address would be bound to a virtual interface (say loopback).

aey > yes, that makes sense to me as well. as soon as an interface is
attached to a radio link, it can configure a CoA. And after this point,
MN can send a BU mapping its home address to this newCoA.

aey > from home agent point of view, all it sees is that MN has moved.
Hoem agent doesn't have to even know that mn is multihomed, or what
L2 technoologies it's using.

The MN would be considered "home" whenever any of the interfaces was at
the home subnet. No particular interface was associated with the home
subnet.

aey > right. at this point, mobile node can configure the home address
on this interface.

On the other hand, the home address must belong to some ISP/operator.
That ISP must provide a home agent and an ip address, and a CoA when the
MN is connected to other than the home subnet. Other ISPs that are used
are only access providers, and would give the MN its CoA. This of course
would cause political problems. Who are the ISPs that are willing to be
access providers only, and who will be providing home agent and home
address as well?

aey > it seems like there are two kind of services here. one is providing
a home address and home agent service. the other is providing a topological
correct address, (coA), service. I think an ISP should be able to provide
any or both.

Another approach is to have a home address for every interface that the
MN uses. If MN has a cellular interface, it will have a home address
from the cellular operator. If the MN also has a WLAN interface, it will
have a second home address from the WLAN ISP. But now, which home
address will the MN use? The MN will in practice have two identities.
Should it register both? Both registrations would use the same CoA if
only one access is available.

   I believe that this brings out the problem that
   I describied a while ago: since there are multiple
   BU's that would be arriving at the CN from different
   sources, how does the CN know how to *order* the 
   routing headers? You're not proposing that
   either one or the other send BU's exclusively,
   right?

   Also: when I was thinking about this, I scratched
   down a diagram and flows to make sense of this;
   I think that any discussion of this would help
   greatly if we had such a common reference  (half
   volunteering... :)

   Just a nit, but it there may be more instances
   of LFN's, but I certainly wouldn't consider the
   case of a VMN on a MR to be an uncommon case.
   Your friend's palm pilot gets into your car
   with its mobile router and voila...

   It would clearly put the CoA of it's local
   attachment point as always, right? If we 
   hide mobility from LFN's, we would want
   to hide it from MN's, right (how could MR
   know)?

   In what way? As a general issue with tunnel establishment?

It isn't clear that there is in fact any clear win
with piggybacking. Indeed, piggybacking is almost
certainly going to be lossage with CRTP/ROHC. If
you consider layer two's which allow multiple
IP packets/frame (which is generally a Good Idea
for any slow/contentious upstream), then *not*
piggybacking would probably perform better.

Also: Alper already outlined many technical
deployment issues in IP stacks.

I agree that this is one case. Maybe we should start with this simple
case and try to make it work. However, I fear that users will require
more things from their mobile networks than fixed subnets and one MR.

I just don't want to spend a lot of WG effort on standardising a
solution for mobile networks with support for only LFNs, unless this
solution can be extended later (if needed) to support mobile-aware MNNs
too, and also more complex versions of the structure of the mobile
network.

If a solution for only LFNs and one for arbitrary MNNs differ a lot,
then I think we should go for the latter one immediately.

You would need a topologically correct prefix to form CoAs from. The MR
could either request one for delegation from the AR (prefix delegation
I-D), or use something like multilink subnetting to extend the subnet
currently between AR and MR to also cover the mobile network.

Yes, nested mobility could show to be so complex that it will in fact be
impossible.

Glenn,

I'm afraid other than killing birds, piggybacking has some other issues 
associated as well :) 

First of all, it'll complicate your implementation. You should queue your
Mobile 
IPv6 signalling messages, setup timers amd age them ... Basically your 
implementation should "manage" this new queue. It's different than sending 
packets as soon as they are ready. In addition to implementation complexity,

this will also have an effect in the performance of your system. 

Piggybacking also effects PMTU. If upper-layer wants to send a PMTU-sized 
packet, and IP wants to piggyback Mobile IPv6 signalling on this packet...?

Hello Mattias.

One of the strengths of MIP is that it preserves the sessions while the
mobile terminal moves, because the home IP adress remains the same.

Taking this another approach would result in broken sessions while making
heterogenous technology handovers, because the home IP address of the MN
would be different in each technology.

So, I would not implement the second approach at all. The first one (not
quoted above, but available in the original email) looks better.

I definitely agree.  This is the reason why I have
written the requirements draft.

We can based solution on my 'Prefix Scope BU'
proposals and extend to the VMN case.  My proposal
works as is for VMNs, but packet would transit via the
MR's HA.  At least, that works.

Exactly.  Then, we agree that something else is needed
than simply masking use of Mobile IPv6.

The CN would end up with two entries in its binding cache:
  1. VMN HoA -> VMN CoA at mobile network
  2. mobile network prefix -> MR's CoA

So CN would first match VMN HoA to entry 1. Next, it would need to know
that it should check the binding cache again, until it gets no more
hits. Second run it would match "VMN CoA at mobile network" to entry 2.
It would build a routing header (only one) and insert addresses in
reverse order, i.e. last hit first.

Not very standard, but hopefully works.

Well, you wouldn't want to route traffic for anyone that are in range of
the MR. I'd be quite restrictive on how to pick my friends... :)

I also see that the mobile network could be partitioned and other
things.

Michael,

You are right in the sense that 'this problem would
exist if ...'.  Everyone knows that you could bottle
Paris with 'if's (French expression, attempt to
translate ...).  However, notice that the 'Prefix
Scope BUs' draft specifies that the solution is
limited to 'FIXED NODES' within the mobile network. 
This 'double BUs' problem is not in the right context
as there is no actual solution that proposes to send a
BU for a VMN, and another one for the MR.  I have
noticed the problem you are speaking about straight
from the beginning and I voluntary excluded the VMN
case from the 'Prefix Scope BUs' draft to avoid to
enter into details and to propose an easy to implement
solution.  This problem is only based on assumptions
that no one has ever been made.

The first target I have is to make people in this WG
aware that there are problems to solve, and I focused
on the trivial and most obvisous ones.  This target is
reached. Then, let's make today this subject a working
group item, let's discuss pbs and requirements and we
can propose solution that address a specific scope of
the problem.

VMNs are in the requirement draft.

This is an issue. What happens if you have one access provider on
one interface, say the wCDMA interface, and another on another, say 802.11?
There are now in the US a growing number of 802.11 access providers,
and I can imagine someone with a laptop having a wCDMA modem and
an 802.11 card. 

Maybe something like the "roaming consortia" that have sprung up
around ISP access might evolve, but the protocol design/engineering
issue is whether there is any additional work (such as the NAI in
the roaming consortia example) needed to enable sharing of a home
address among interfaces for which different ISPs are responsible.

Something like SUCV, that would allow an ISP to cryptographically identify
to what other ISP an address belonged, might be useful in this context.

   Well, I guess that I'm preceding from the assumption
   that if we do MR's, that we not limit them to stationary
   nodes behind a MR. The argument, such as it is, may
   just be requirements if the WG decides only to consider
   what you targeted, but until then, I think it's worthwhile
   to explore the problem space to see whether there's a
   technical reason to push back on creating a general
   solution. Part of my motivation here is that we not
   blindly add features to MIP that ultimately lead to
   engineering dead ends. This hypothetical network
   seems both plausible and should nicely demonstrate
   what a lot of the global implications of mobile
   networks are. Even though I generally support your
   general method of hinding mobility, the reason I 
   hedge is because the larger issues may inform us
   that that was short sighted.

   How does an access router which farther downstream
   from the MR find out which prefix it should hand out?

   Unrelated: there seems to be an assumption that
   there is only one uplink on the MR. To my mind,
   that doesn't seem like an especially good assumption
   for a generalized MR solution. It's not hard to
   imagine that an aircrash carrier would want to
   be multihomed, for example.

FYI, the Wireless ISPs (WISPs) are already talking about such roaming
issues.  

There appear to be 2 emerging forums for these discussions, one under the
auspices of WECA (http://www.weca.net) known as the WISPr group ('r' being
for roaming), the other a yet to be finalized 'WISP Forum' the prime mover
for which is a company in Luxembourg (www.excilan.com).

This is an issue. What happens if you have one access provider on
one interface, say the wCDMA interface, and another on another, say 802.11?
There are now in the US a growing number of 802.11 access providers,
and I can imagine someone with a laptop having a wCDMA modem and
an 802.11 card. 

Maybe something like the "roaming consortia" that have sprung up
around ISP access might evolve, but the protocol design/engineering
issue is whether there is any additional work (such as the NAI in
the roaming consortia example) needed to enable sharing of a home
address among interfaces for which different ISPs are responsible.

Something like SUCV, that would allow an ISP to cryptographically identify
to what other ISP an address belonged, might be useful in this context.

Also, I believe that ETSI is working on a standard called GRX for GSM<->802.11

Do you have more info on this?  GRX is a term for the GPRS roaming
exchange to allow GPRS roaming between different PLMNs.

Aside from the relatively expensive proposition of joining WECA, could
anybody point me to a source that could provide an update on WISPr
progress? An article appeared in Network World at the end of May, but I
haven't seen or heard anything since.

Sharif,

You slides present essentially the same ideas as the other proposal
for supporting mobility using remapping at routers (using VM ideas) --
"A Network Architecture Providing Host Migration Transparency", by
Fumio Teraoka, Yasuhiko Yokore, Mario Tokoro, presented at Sigcomm'91
(Sept. 1991), pp. 209-220. The only difference is that you do the
(re)mapping at the NAT boxes, rather than at each of the routers on the
path.

       Length
           8-bit unsigned integer.  Length of the option, in octets,
           excluding the Option Type and Option Length fields. This
           field MUST be set to 4.


The length field. shouldnt it be in terms of 8 octets becase it goes
as an option in the router advertisement. and the value 4 is wrong.
it MUST set to 1. am i missing something?

Michael, 

Please explain in more detail why you believe the performance would be
better without piggybacking. I would suspect the performance to be better
with piggybacking.

I would also have some severe reservations about having a snooping ROHC
compression strategy drive the more pure IP standard.

It isn't clear that there is in fact any clear win
with piggybacking. Indeed, piggybacking is almost
certainly going to be lossage with CRTP/ROHC. If
you consider layer two's which allow multiple
IP packets/frame (which is generally a Good Idea
for any slow/contentious upstream), then *not*
piggybacking would probably perform better.

Also: Alper already outlined many technical
deployment issues in IP stacks.

I see that there are 5 parties involved in route optimized mobility:

mobile node
correspondent node
visited ISP
correspodent ISP
home ISP of mobile node

The issues you raise bring out the ownership issues of addresses and who
should be involved in the authentication and authorization of each's use.

I believe it should work the same way irrespective of if the MN is a router
or just a host /128. They would each have a home prefix and each have a
correspondent address or prefix if you will.

This is an issue. What happens if you have one access provider on
one interface, say the wCDMA interface, and another on another, say 802.11?
There are now in the US a growing number of 802.11 access providers,
and I can imagine someone with a laptop having a wCDMA modem and
an 802.11 card.

aey > I think this is a good scenario, very desirable and feasible in near
future.

Maybe something like the "roaming consortia" that have sprung up
around ISP access might evolve, but the protocol design/engineering
issue is whether there is any additional work (such as the NAI in
the roaming consortia example) needed to enable sharing of a home
address among interfaces for which different ISPs are responsible.

Something like SUCV, that would allow an ISP to cryptographically identify
to what other ISP an address belonged, might be useful in this context.

aey > I think there doesn't have to be a roaming agreement. If you want
to use both WLAN and 3G on the same device, you need to make sure you
subscribe to both services. Wherever they are available, your MN can
do an intelligent selection (price, performance, quality, etc..) and
make a handoff from one to another.

aey > the access technologies in each might be different. Current
and possible near future choices are: 802.11b, 802.1x, AAAv6, BURP,
free service..

aey > mobile node should be able to execute one of these independent
form what other interface it has. and once it obtains a care-of
address, the rest is simple mobile ipv6...

aey > if the user is only subscribed to one service, then it can
attempt roaming with those networks that rely on AAA (802.1x,
AAAv6, BURP, ..)

aey > speaking of mobile ipv6, access network shouldn't care what
your home address is (unless it's your identity. but it's not if
we are using AAA). all you need is a careof address. once you have it
you can use it in mobile ipv6 way. (home address option, routing
headers, tunneling..)

We are also balking at the WECA barrier to entry (we have no product to
certify), and would also be interested in some insight to the WISPr
proceedings if anyone can provide that.

I know that some people are feeling excluded from that Forum (even though
they are members), which is the motivation for the 'competing' WISP Forum.
The WISP Forum are talking about a meeting possibly in September, probably
in the US.  I believe Excilan are organizing it, so I would suggest
contacting their CEO for more info.  He assures me that "the membership fee
is substantially lower, and you will get something out of it as well."

Aside from the relatively expensive proposition of joining WECA, could
anybody point me to a source that could provide an update on WISPr
progress? An article appeared in Network World at the end of May, but I
haven't seen or heard anything since.

run "traceroute mn"

this gives you "ha" and "fa_or_colocated_coa." (look at last two hops before
mn)

now run "traceroute -g ha fa_or_colocated_coa" (-g adds a LSRR to the
probing
packet that has to go through the specified gateway)

now you see what makes up the tunnel.

Thanks.

But steel there is some problem.

result of following execution do not guarantee that MN use that route(s) next time.
>now run "traceroute -g ha fa_or_colocated_coa" (-g adds a LSRR to the
>probing

To guarantee that,
there must be atomic operation of
"traceroute mn
traceroute -g ha fa_or_colocated_coa"

I did not test it, however in my understanding I think it will work.

I think they already have such a standard and I believe it only works

I think Charlie was thinking of 802.11. L3 on the MN only leans of
a handover after it has happened. Don't know if the AP L2 does default buffering
for a MN that has moved, as is the case for dormant mode MNs, however.

If I understood correctly the discussion on Monday at the mobileip
WG meeting, people seem to agree that we can and we should 
separate the problem of authenticating individual BUs and
and the problem creating keying material for authenticating BUs.

I think considering the problems separately is a good thing.
However, based on the discussions I've had with some people,
there seems to be some tendency to forget the authorization and
security policy issue when we do this separation.  In this message
I try to (once again) clarify the issue.

Now, independent on whether the actual BUs are authenticated
and integrity protected with AH (or ESP if you will) or using
separate authentication data in the BU itself (a la current -14
draft), care must be taken that the keying material used to
create and verify the protection has been _created_ in a suitable
way.  That is, the SA used to protect the BU must be _authorized_
to protect BUs _for_the_specific_Home_Address_.  

Please note that I am leaving some implementation details aside
(like how to use IPsec SDP to differentiate BUs from other traffic).
My point really is try to clarify the need for a proper security
policy and for making sure that the key management protocol takes
care of checking that the security policy requirements are fulfilled
when the SA is created.

Let me consider four combinations: 
a) using IKE and AH/ESP and 
b) using BAKE and -14 authentication data
c) using IKE and -14 authentication data
d) using BAKE and AH/ESP

Case A.  IKE and AH/ESP

Let us assume that AH (or ESP with integrity protection) is used to
protect the BUs.  In that case, there must be an entry in the
IPsec SPD specifying at the receiving host (CN) that if the
BU is protected with the given SA, then the BU can be accepted
and the corresponding Binding Cache entry can be created.
Otherwise, if the SDP databased does not allow Binding Cache
entry creation, such an entry MUST NOT be created even if the
packet integrity and authenticity was correctly verified.

In other words, the SPD makes sure that the SA is _authorized_
to protect BUs for that specific Home Address.  It is important 
to note that it is _not_ enough that the BU is protected with
_some_ SA, but that the SA used for protection MUST be created
in such a way that it is known to be properly authorized.

[Side note: Some people have pointed out that if we get a
separate next header number for BUs and discontinue
piggypacking, current IPsec SPD implementations and key
management protocols do have enough of granularity to 
define and create such a policy.  However, that is not the 
point of this message.]

What is important to note here is that even if you use a (local) PKI 
so that you know who your peer is, you DO have the danger of creating
not-properly-authorized SPD entries.  That is, when running a key
management protocol and checking the certificates, you 

  a) either must know (or at least believe) that all hosts 
     certified by your PKI are fully honest and competent, or 

  b) your PKI must explicitly contain information specifying 
     the home addresses of the hosts.

Furthermore, in the latter case, even if the PKI contains the home 
addresses, you must somehow know that the CAs in the PKI are either 
fully honest and competent, or that they are otherwise authorized to 
specify the home addresses given.

[Site note:  Since X.509 certificates may specify IP addresses
as identifiers, you can establish b).  However, you still have
to trust in the competence of your CAs checking the IP addresses
when creating certificates.  Note also that if you have a local
PKI, you may well essume a).  You just need to be aware that you
are making such an assumption (if you are), and the dangers created.
Again, however, that's not the point.] 

Case B.  BAKE and -14 authentication

Let us now assume that -14 authentication is used to protect
the authenticity and the integrity of the BUs.  Now, the
implementation itself implicitly takes care of part of the policy, 
since the -14 authentication cannot be used for anything else but 
authenticating BUs.  However, care must still be made to make sure 
that the SA used is authorized for creating Binding Cache Entries 
for the specific Home Address.  

Thus, from the policy point of view, the most important thing for
BAKE is to make sure that when an SA is created (as a result of
running BAKE), there is a reasonable amount of assurance that the
peer node (who shares the SA) is really authorized to create
Binding Cache entries for its (claimed) Home Address.  Basically,
BAKE achieves this by checking that the peer node is reachable 
through the Home Address.

Case C.  IKE and -14 authentication

If we want to use IKE with -14 authentication, we basically need
a new DOI (or extension to the Internet DOI), specifying how 
authentication data for -14 BU authentication is created.
That is certainly some amount of work, but doable.

On the other hand, however, care must still be made that when
the SAs are created, IKE checks that the peer node is indeed
authorized to create Binding Cache entries for the given Home
Address.  Thus, in this sense the situation is similar to Case A.

Case D.  BAKE and AH/ESP authentication

There is no fundamental reason why BAKE could not be used for
creating AH or ESP SAs.  The only restriction is that such
AH or ESP SA __MAY_NOT__ be used for any other purpose but
protecting BUs.  In this sense, we come back to the Case A
SPD discussion, where I noted that the IPsec SPD MUST be able
differentiate BUs from other packets.  In this case, however,
the SA is valid ONLY for BU authentication, i.e., in a way
reverse to the Case A situation where a generic IPsec SA 
is NOT good for BU authentication unless the peer authorization
has been positively checked during the IKE negotiation.

I hope this helps to clarify the situation.

If that is the case, then WECA's WISPr is dedicated to 802.11b roaming,
while the ETSI has assigned a group to address GPRS roaming. Is there a
group anywhere that is looking into the technical issues associated with
heterogeneous network roaming (such as between, theoretically, 802.11b
WLANs and GPRS)?

Hii, would just like to pose a question;
in my understanding this means that there are easy means
to get knowledge of the visited location (ie the FA / coloc)
of the MN, by just anyone interrested.
Could that not be regarded a potential security hazard for&by the moving
individual, i.e. the carrier of the MN?

Hi..

I do not know why the location of MN has any security vulnerability.
If a location of some node could be that, why not prohibit sending
"ICMP TTL exceed" message from FA.
I think the location itself does not give any information.

The problem is at least "privacy". If they know your care-of address,
and if they know which care-of address maps to which geographical area
(they can at least figure this out by going around in town), they
can know where you are.... and people don't want that.

And losing privacy can be exploited for security attacks.

Yes, you can configure your router (FA) not to respond with
time exceeded, and your host (mn) with port unreachable, echo
reply...

Hi

Does that geographic area information is applied to any IP network?
Why geographic are information should be considered for Mobile Node specially?

If MN want to have some "privacy", it should use Private Address with Mobile IP.

Brad,

As far as I know, this is not being addressed. There was some discussion
awhile back about forming a Mobile IP trade group to address interoperability
issues associated with roaming, but nothing came of it.

Perhaps it would be an appropriate topic for a WG in the OPS area of IETF?

Yes, this is the kind of problems I'm thinking of.

If I understand correct what you say, then;
you can as a MN owner depend on (or select) access network operators
that are setting up their FA  not to respond,
and so be safe that no address information revealing anything about
location is possible to retrieve.

Tnx for your answers & Rgrds

Alper,

It's a pretty difficult problem.  HMIP is one way of solving it, in that
it hides the CoA within a site, but isn't ideal, since correspondent
nodes and observers know it's within a site.

I tried to come up with a better solution (see
http://www.ee.vt.edu/~wells), but the problem is that to hide the
address for two-way live communication, there must be an intermediary to
hide the address.  Essentially, I made this intermediary like a MAP in
basic mode, and forced two way tunnelling, so the client (which acts
like an HMIP mobile node) only communicates with this address bound at
the intermediary, hopefully not giving any location information.  It
seems a bit heavyweight which is why I haven't written a draft on it.

Has anyone else done any work on lightweight location privacy in v6?  I
could only find heavyweight solutions requiring special changes in lots
of machines, sometimes including intermediate routers.

Chae-yong,

By private addresses, do you mean RFC 3041 privacy extension for
stateless autoconf addresses?  The link address part (last 64 bits)
change every so often, but the link itself does not change.  For fixed
nodes, this is probably sufficient to foil eavesdroppers, but it's not
sufficient when you communicate for a long time with a correspondant
node, or login to a correspondant node server.  There, the CN can bind
your location (the network id which cannot be hidden) with your name,
address, email, or whatever info you give it.

There's still the question of hiding the home address too, which is
not covered in the 3041 privacy extensions.  There's a draft on this:
draft-castelluccia-mobileip-privacy-00.txt.

I didn't read the above in the SUCV draft. SUCV allows nodes to challenge
the node with an SUCV address to show indicate that they have the private
key corresponding to the address. This doesn't identify the ISP as far
as I can tell.
Or do you intend to infer the identity of the ISP from the high-order
bits in the IPv6 address?

There is some vague language in 3012 relating to when new challenges can be 
sent and when they should be used by the FA.  Section 3.2. (Foreign Agent 
Processing for Registration Requests) states

     The Foreign Agent MUST NOT accept any Challenge in the Registration
     Request unless it was offered in last successful Registration Reply
     issued to the Mobile Node, or else advertised as one of the last
     CHALLENGE_WINDOW (see section 9) Challenge values inserted into the
     immediately preceding Agent advertisements.

This explicitly states that the FA is NOT supposed to use challenges which 
are sent to mobiles in RRP failures.  However, in Section 3.3. (Foreign 
Agent Processing for Registration Replies) it also states the following:

     The Foreign Agent MAY include a new Challenge extension in any
     Registration Reply, successful or not.

which seems to imply that the mobile could use this challenge to 
authenticate itself.

This has already caused interop problems with the mobile following the 
section 3.2 (i.e. ignoring the challenge in and RRP failure) and the FA 
following 3.3 (expecting the mobile to use a challenge in a failure).

It would be good if this could be clarified to avoid problems in future.

Roaming is different from performing a handoff between different
access technologies. With Mobile IP you *CAN* move between different
access technologies. However the issue of administrative domains
and roaming agreements etc. are not in scope of this WG and I
suspect this WG has no reason to address those issues. As James
suggested this belons in the Ops area.

Clearly, you are mixing roaming with seamless mobility across
heterogeneous
access types. The Mobile IP WG does not deal with aspects related to
roaming
agreements between operators or administrative domains. That is NOT what
this WG is about.

Raj,

That's like saying that BGP doesn't deal with the routing policy related to
business relationships between the owners of autonomous systems. You are
shoe-holing the group into only dealing with an enterprise - not the
Internet.

Glenn,

I think Raj is right on here, sorry. There are enough technical issues
involved in getting MIP to be deployable that the MIP group really
needs to focus on. An example is this NAT question.

If there are any operational issues involved in handover between operators that
need resolution, they should probably be handled in a separate working
group, like ROAMOPS. An example of such an issue might be advertising
access routers between operators using something like the Seamoby
CAR discovery protocol, which is just now getting off the ground.

Right, the high order bits identify the ISP, the low order identify
the mobile node. 

I suppose there is an issue here in that a mobile node could manufacture
the high order bits and thus claim  it was from an ISV that it wasn't,
but the low order bits should provide proof.

During the London meeting, Thierry Ernst talked about support for Mobile
Networks under IPv6. There was some concern about how to properly
authenticate authorization for the ability to change subnet routing
information. For instance, it seems to be trickier to know when to allow
a binding for a /4 prefix than for a /128 prefix (host) on a
correspondent node. This opens up a nasty redirection attack on any
correspondent node supporting mobile routers.

Putting aside route optimization and the processing of prefix scope
binding updates on the CN, the problem is greatly reduced. At the home
agent, there is already some configuration presumed, and deciding which
prefixes are assigned to which MRs (and hence, which PSBAs to accept) is
more feasible. In the worst case, if a HA does not discriminate in
accepting these bindings, the /4 hijacked prefix would only be forwarded
to the MN for packets generated internally by the HA (while acting as a
CN); however, packets will never show up on the home link destined for
the MN, since the upstream aggregation routers will not forward these
packets to the home link, but rather to the correct part of the network
where the /4 prefix really lives.

A side effect of this is that prefixes used by MRs will have to be
topologically correct, in that they must in the usual case be routed to
the home link. This seems like a good feature, since the CN can rely on
the prefix ownership authorization that is implicit in the topology and
router configurations.

There is one question I had on the Mobile Networks draft which I thought
would be better suited for the list than the meeting:

What is the need for a Prefix Scope Registration bit? I can not think of
a case where a MR would have to include a Prefix Scope extension on a BU
and wouldn't want it to be processed. Isn't the inclusion of said
extension, or not, tantamount to indicating its presence with the P bit?

I am not sure why you believe my statement shoe-holes MIPv4 to
enterprise only. For MIPv4 to work within the enterprise and the
Internet you have to deal with the NAT problem as James mentioned and
that is something that this WG can and should work on (at IETF51 we
have decided that this is an area that will be worked on in this
WG). However the relationship between operators and roaming between
them is a different problem and that I do not believe is in the scope
of this WG.

sucv addresses (as opposed to sucv id's) only give you a cryptographic assurance on the lower 64 bits.
the upper 64 are, of course, just the prefix which could give you some indication/assurance
as to the ISP. at any rate the nature of the assurance is not cryptographic, it's merely based
on return routability or some such soft binding.
if you want hard crypto assurance on all the bits then HIP (or sucv id's) can do this.
the hip draft talks about how to allow for HAA (host assigning authority) field. this is
what could relate to your ISP, for example.

but then you no longer have a routable entity.

Hello TJ,

Actually Binding Updates for prefixes do not disable route optimization
feature. Clearly, the authorization process is trickier. It can however
be performed provided that it makes use of the knowledge the HA has
about the binding 'Mobile Prefix' / 'Mobile Router'. HA can then be
asked by the CN before CN updates its Binding Cache upon receiption of a
prefix BU.
In draft-ernst-mobileip-v6-network-02.txt, we study a light enhancement
to BAKE that allows to use it to authorize a prefix BU.

Regards,
Alexis.

Let's change the description of the MIP WG then:

Stick an "Interdomain" before the Routing for Mobile/Wireless Hosts

Right, the high order bits identify the ISP, the low order identify
the mobile node. 

I suppose there is an issue here in that a mobile node could manufacture
the high order bits and thus claim  it was from an ISV that it wasn't,
but the low order bits should provide proof.

It just seems to me that a roaming agreement is nothing more than a routing
policy in an all IP network. Why is a working group with a description of

 IP Routing for Wireless/Mobile Hosts 

limiting itself to just certain aspects of the "routing" problem. I see this
as directly related to IP routing for Wireless/Mobile Hosts - that was my
point.

I am not sure why you believe my statement shoe-holes MIPv4 to
enterprise only. For MIPv4 to work within the enterprise and the
Internet you have to deal with the NAT problem as James mentioned and
that is something that this WG can and should work on (at IETF51 we
have decided that this is an area that will be worked on in this
WG). However the relationship between operators and roaming between
them is a different problem and that I do not believe is in the scope
of this WG.

Coming back to the question of handover across heterogeneous wireless
networks.  Can anyone advise me as to where i should look at?
We are seeing a desire for handover between 802.11 and GPRS networks.  Is
there any group looking at the feasibility of this ? 

Thanks in advance

Glenn,

I think Raj is right on here, sorry. There are enough technical issues
involved in getting MIP to be deployable that the MIP group really
needs to focus on. An example is this NAT question.

If there are any operational issues involved in handover between operators
that
need resolution, they should probably be handled in a separate working
group, like ROAMOPS. An example of such an issue might be advertising
access routers between operators using something like the Seamoby
CAR discovery protocol, which is just now getting off the ground.

this is taken careof in the latest draft

   If the mobile node sends a sequence number which is 
   not greater than the sequence number from the last 
   successful Binding Update, then the home agent MUST 
   send back a Binding Acknowledgement with status code
   141, and the last accepted sequence number in the 
   Sequence Number field of the Binding Acknowledgement.

the MN which receives such a packet sends a BU with the
sequence number greater than the last accepted sequence
number.

Yes. Thank you very much!

In case A (IKE and AH/ESP) I think one way of getting the
authroization is to have the SA be created between the home address and the
correspondent. Thus in this case the routability to the home address can
be used implicitly by IKE in the key exchange.

Thus as long as there is a way for iked to tell IP to ignore 
the binding cache when sending the IKE packets this should fall out
pretty easy unless I'm confused. (Of course, my confusion increases 
assympotically during the IETF week :-)

Such an approach would mean that you would need to do something
different with respect to IKE for the MN to HA exchanges since
in that case you can't rely on the HA reaching the MN as a way
to establish authorization. Thus in this case you want to associate
a something (shared secret, certificate) with the authority to "be"
a certain MN. But this is a local issue contained within the HA
as far as I can tell.

This is discussed in section 10.2 of the ipv6 draft. It specifically
says that IKE must use only CoA as the source address. If you want
to use the Home Address, then i think you should setup the SA with
Home Agent first (so that it has the right binding cache) using the
CoA as the source address. Then, while setting up the SA with CN use
the home address (and possibly a socket option on the other end to
avoid using the binding cache), i think there should not be any
problem.

Hello Glenn,

Since Mobile IP should work for intradomain mobility, I don't
see why this would be a good idea.

Hello folks,

A new version of RFC2002bis has been prepared.  According
to the most recent guidance given by the IESG, a change in
the mandated authentication algorithm has been strongly
suggested.  Unfortunately, this will have the effect of
causing almost all previous implementations of Mobile IP
for IPv4 to become incompatible with the new specification.

The working group chairs recently asked the working group,
by way of the mailing list, whether this incompatible
change would be acceptable.  The discussion was quite
limited, somewhat to my surprise.  This has been taken
as evidence that going with HMAC_MD5 is more-or-less
O.K.  Thus, it has been decided to go ahead with the
change.  On the other hand, it is conceivable that not
all interested parties have been notified of the possible
change, or have had time to reply.  If there are dissenters
to this change, now would be the time to express that
opinion.

That is the most important point of this note.

Another factor in the discussion concerns the acceptability
of RFC2002bis as a basis for moving Mobile IPv4 to Draft
Standard.  I have been told that, contrary to my previous
understanding, a version of RFC2002bis could be promoted
to Draft Standard even if it is first published with
the several options which have not been tested for
interoperability. These options are:
1. 'R' bit to the Agent Advertisement
2. 'S' bit to Registration Request
3. Prefix Lengths Extension to Agent Advertisement
4. Possibly other options that may come under discussion
   (I don't know of any in this class).
I'll call these the "unpromotable options"

On the other hand, it is likely that the IESG will not
promote Mobile IPv4 to Draft Standard unless the authentication
algorithm has been changed to HMAC_MD5.

Consideration of all these factors leads me to believe that
one of the following scenarios will happen.

1. New RFC2002bis goes to Proposed Standard with HMAC_MD5,
   and is promoted to Draft Standard after the ordained amount
   of time after the unpromotable options are excised.  These
   would then properly be re-published in another document
   which would cycle at Proposed Standard.

2. New RFC2002bis goes to Proposed Standard with HMAC_MD5,
   and activity occurs to exhibit interoperability for the
   unpromotable options.  Then, since the options would
   become promotable, RFC2002bis could go to Draft Standard
   without substantial revision.

3. (combination of 1 and 2): some of the unpromotable options,
   but not all of them, are tested for interoperability.
   Then fewer of the options would be excised, and the other
   new document would be thinner.

4. The working group could decide that moving to HMAC_MD5
   was premature.  Then RFC2002bis might possibly be published
   with "envelope-mode" specified (as it is now).  Then another
   version of Mobile IPv4 would be published later with
   HMAC_MD5 mandated instead of "envelope-mode" mandated.
   The advantage of this approach is that it would be possible
   to create correct and interoperable implementations of
   Mobile IPv4.  Up until now, all interoperable implementations
   have had to handle the SPI field as part of the computation
   of the authentication data in a way that was not clear from
   RFC 2002.  Fixing this problem was the most important
   reason for embarking on RFC2002bis in the first place.

I think that basically accounts for the most likely
possibilities, but maybe there are others that could happen.
However, it seems likely that HMAC_MD5 will be required by
the IESG as the mandated default algorithm in the Draft
Standard version of Mobile IPv4, because there has been
published work showing that envelope mode is vulnerable to
an attack that reduces its cryptographic strength.

Following strategies 1-3 will mean that there is no RFC
which can be read to create new implementations of
Mobile IPv4 which are interoperable with existing versions
of Mobile IPv4.  On the other hand, following 1-3 will
mean that RFC2002bis is a more likely candidate for
promotion to Draft Standard, avoiding the need for one
more revision to accomplish that purpose.

Quick action is expected on the HMAC_MD5 version of RFC200bis,
so it is possible that any discussion about backwards
incompatibility will happen as part of IETF Last Call.

Whatever people decide on these issues is fine with me.
As draft editor, I'll happily produce whatever documents
are indicated by near-term and Last Call discussions over
the next weeks.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Another possible use may be roaming between GPRS and bluetooth. For example,
in a building, a cell phone can access internet with bluetooth. When it is
out of the building, the internet access can be through GPRS

Taking a very simplistic approach (and ignoring all the lower layer
complexities),
and assuming that you have Mobile IP client in your MN, an FA in your
GGSN
and MIPv4 support in the WLAN (FA in the WLAN), you could accomplish a 
handoff between the two based on the low-latency handoff solution
(current WG
I-D) between the two networks. However you need to deal with the
underlying
complexities of L2 triggers and a MN which is capable of both interfaces
etc.

   It obviously depends on the particular link layer.
   However, for one example that I'm pretty familiar
   with -- DOCSIS cable -- it would better to separate
   them into two packets because you would then be able
   to reap the benefit of payload header supression 
   (PHS) as well as use concatenation to place both 
   packets on the same upstream grant request.

   I don't understand what you mean here. ROHC would
   be greatly complicated if it had to consider
   piggybacking too. If we separate them, it could
   be made to look like a normal UDP packet which 
   ROHC already knows how to compress.

I think yes, having a Mobile Network Prefix Sub-Option type set aside
as a distinctive value eliminates the need for the P bit.  Moreover, I
think it's better to extend the BU first with specific sub-options and
to touch the Reservd field as late as possible.

Other parts of the draft rely a lot on this P bit, but I think the P
bit could simply be deduced from the presence of the respective
sub-option type.

This could be an issue.  TIA/EIA IS-835 (the packet data standard for 
CDMA2000) is going to be deployed in North America this fall.  It specifies 
the user of RFC 2002.  There are two major areas of incompatibilty in RFC 
2002bis:
1) the inclusion of the SPI in the auth calculation
2) HMAC_MD5 if that is decided on.

Both of these things break 2002 - which means that the mobiles and 
infrastructure that are 835 compliant will be obsoleted when RFC 2002 is 
obsoleted.

I think that both of these fixes are good (the SPI was a bug that slipped 
through in 2002, and HMAC sounds like it is less vulnerable than vanila 
MD5) but they could cause issues in these planned network deployments.

Hello Charlie,

 Thank you for your so-far enormous efforts on MIPv4.
 I have two comments embedded in the following:

 From my memory, we had checked 'R' bit at the Testathon,
 thanks to Steve.

>2. 'S' bit to Registration Request
>3. Prefix Lengths Extension to Agent Advertisement

 Also, about Prefix Length Extension, we had tested it
 at the 3rd bakeoff at Sun, thanks to Pat.
 But, I agree it is the best&last time to sum up tested or
 not-tested functions, and recycle untested bits.

 This might affect 3GPP2 process, I'm afraid.  I believe
 Tom Hiller has received your email, so he can reply
 if the above may affect 3GPP2 or not.

Thanks so many.

So IS-835 implemantations would  be compliant with RFC2002.  The SPI
interpretation in 2002 was a problem which was one of the reasons for
working on 2002bis.

Well, the IS835 implementations would still be compliant with RFC2002,
which would be obsoleted by a new RFC. The point is they would still
be compliant with RFC2002, but NOT the new RFC which supercedes it.

The IS-835 network is not yet deployed on a commercial basis. And you
seem to agree that the above fixes would be good for the spec. Would
make sense to consider making these changes now than later when it is
deployed.

Hi. 

This is just an information for you.

The IS-835 network is already deployed in Korea on a commercial basis.
If you asked that how many subscribers are using Mobile IP service, I am
sorry not to give you an exact answer. That answer could be given by
some guys of Operators, SK Telecom ro KTF :-)
I think you all just consider the situation of North American. :-(

As far as I know, there is no commercial product for
Mobile Node software. Okay. I agree that you could assume that
the current deployment in Korea could be regarded to a nothing.
(If the number of Mobile IP service subscriber is just trivial)
I just write this message to let you know that IS-835 is ALREADY deployed somewhere :-)

This is true - however some of the network infrastructure vendors are 
following the letter of the law and not including the SPI.  Once this is 
deployed (which will be soon), fixing it will be difficult.

True and since this is a closed system it is not all that dramatic - but it 
would be nice if it were "future proof."

While the network is not deployed commercially, North American deployment 
is expected before the end of this year, which is why I raised my concerns 
to the list.

Not necessarily. We are equally aware of developments in other

You mentioned above that the network is already operational. Yet there
are no commercial products (terminals supporting MN software)? Can you
elaborate what you mean by "commercial product for Mobile Node
software"?

This memo describes four different protocols that MAY be used for
authenticating Binding Update or Binding Acknowledgment destination
options [5]. Each protocol provides a different level of security,
ranging from no authentication to a challenge-response mechanism
using digital signatures.

	Title		: Transitional Integration of Mobile IPv4 and Mobile 
                          IPv6
	Author(s)	: P. Engelstad
	Filename	: draft-engelstad-ngtrans-mipv4-over-mipv6-01.txt

This draft outlines how a dual stack mobile node can be reached and
communicate by means of both IPv4 and IPv6, even in situations where
the mobile node is in reach of only either IPv4 or IPv6 networks. A
Dual Stack Mobility Agent accommodates mobility and translates
between IPv4 and IPv6 traffic. It may operate as a mobility agent in
its own right or as a module that relays traffic between existing
single stack Mobile IPv4 and Mobile IPv6 home agents.

I think you can solve the above without any prefixes in the BUs.

The scenario I'm thinking about is something like a personal area network
with a router at its edge - I carry the whole PAN including the router
with me when I walk.

When I'm at home the PAN router has adjancencies with other routers attached
to the home link which it uses to exchange routing information about the
subnet prefixes assigned to my PAN.

When I move away from home it is sufficient for the PAN router to
 - send a binding update for its own address (which the other routers
   have as the nexthop in the routing tables). This BU will
   have the R-bit set so that NUD works.
 - tunnel all traffic from the PAN back to the home network.

Thus the PAN router will continue to exchange reachability information
with the routers on home network using the routing protocol (e.g. OSPF).
All packets will be tunneled in both directions. The nodes in my PAN
will not notice that they are moving.

At least the above provides a basic level of support for this scenario.

I don't understand how the CN checking with the HA solves the trust issue
for using BUs to redirect whole prefixes.

Example:  I run a MN and a HA . My MN sends a BU for a /3 to a CN
the fact that my MN says "yes" when the CN asks if the binding is ok.

The redirection of a prefix must be related to the routing for that whole
prefix going to the HA. In general you can't verify that this is the case
for a prefix without actually sending packets to all IP addresses in the
prefix and seeing that you get a response back from the HA.

But, what problem are we really trying to solve by being able to send
a BU for a whole prefix?
This seems like optimizing something which is close to a non-problem.

This is exactly what I pointed out to Thierry a while ago. If routing is
consistent and transparent with regards to this home link, I also think
that this is the ideal solution.

However, Mobile IPv6 fails to be fully transparent when it comes to
link-local addresses.

Unfortunately, we couldn't make an agreement on how nodes would
function. It is obviously implementation dependent whether the home
agent will do binding cache lookup and routing table lookup in the
correct order to allow this.

I pointed out that a BSD home agent could probably work like described
above, but Thierry shows in the draft that INRIA's MIPv6 code would not.

Routing protocols use link-local addresses, so this would fail (at least
with today's specification of Mobile IPv6 and routing protocols).

   Sure. All you've done is managed to avoid the hard
   problem which is route optimization :-) Maybe this 
   inevitable since the problem is obviously not a 
   trivial one, but there are issues of reliabilty
   and robustness which need to be considered. The
   MR's home agent provides an additional single point
   of failure, so the fate sharing is wrong. For MIPv6,
   this is supposed to be a transient single point of
   failure (on the average case), so that seems like
   an acceptible design tradeoff. However, if we relegate
   MR's (which potentially subtend very large subnets for,
   oh say, planes or ships) to dog leg routing, we're 
   actually *increasing* the desire for robust and
   optimal routing. As you add more layers of mobility,
   the path becomes more and more fragile which doesn't
   seem very satisfying. In fact, it starts to resemble
   the PSTN...

I know for a fact that the current IS835 deployment in Korea does not 
support Mobile IP - this will change in short order, as the infrastructure 
will be upgraded, when the new mobiles will have support for it.

I did not mean to disregard Korea - It is just that the only large scale 
M.IP deployment that was immanent was that in the U.S.

May be the 'P' bit is not needed.    I put it there as an indication for
the receiver to check if a Mobile Network Prefix sub-option is needed or
not.

   It obviously depends on the particular link layer.
   However, for one example that I'm pretty familiar
   with -- DOCSIS cable -- it would better to separate
   them into two packets because you would then be able
   to reap the benefit of payload header supression 
   (PHS) as well as use concatenation to place both 
   packets on the same upstream grant request. 

GM] Balderdash on the upstream grant point - no gain one way or the other.
See my point below on the PHS.

   I don't understand what you mean here. ROHC would
   be greatly complicated if it had to consider
   piggybacking too. If we separate them, it could
   be made to look like a normal UDP packet which 
   ROHC already knows how to compress.

GM] Mike - so I guess you don't want to use Routing headers, IPSEC headers,
router alerts, home address options, etc.. etc.. etc.. because ROHC will
become more complex. It seems to me that you are being quite arbitrary in
your complexity argument. In my mind the complexity is not more than these
other header options. ROHC is a snooping technology. It is not a pure layer
3 solution. We should not drive the definition of MIPv6 based upon this
complexity argument of this snooping technology. The PHS is a similar thing
to ROHC and the same points apply. The BU will not be sent on every packet.
I don't see a problem with an exception here and there to improve the
overall end to end quality of service (route optimization) of the users
flows.

Charlie,

I'm not sure it will always work for interdomain mobility on handoff. The
communication between the source and target administrative domains during a
handoff might need to be enhanced in order to convey the addresses of routes
(FAs, ARs) that are appropriate for handoff. 

This is what I trying to convey. I don't want to see the name changed. We
should understand that under certain situations the addresses for the source
and target routers may not even be known across autonomous systems. Defining
and solving these issues seems to fit into the MIP WG. They are related to
roaming agreements in a manner. I see ROAMOPS as subscription management -
not routing.

Hello Glenn,

Since Mobile IP should work for intradomain mobility, I don't
see why this would be a good idea.

   I never claimed it was a gain. And my initial
   comment said that it may be neutral to a net
   gain. Concatenation substantially weakens the
   argument for piggybacking because the net extra
   cost is mainly a matter of bandwidth, which can
   be mitigated by normal compression techniques.

   Not at all. If the headers are essentially static over the
   life of a flow, they can be compressed. If you inject
   variability into the flow -- like occassional
   BU's -- it becomes much more complicated.

   Fine. On 10bT ethernet the marginal gains in
   bandwidth efficiency are not worth the added
   complexity in the stack, both for normal IP
   processing as Alper pointed out, path MTU
   considerations, as well as the complexities 
   that arise from things that have to deal with
   5-tuple processing like IPsec and RSVP. If 
   you don't believe that, then why shouldn't
   we piggyback ICMP messages on TCP connections?

First of all, I want to thank Charlie for bringing this item up ...

Second of all, we are nearing two million data subscribers using Mobile IP,
today.  Obviously we would expect to have inter-operability between the
current Mobile IP standard and any future enhancements to the standard.

Finally, can someone point me to the original discussion of the
interoperability issue?  I don't recall seeing it come up prior to Charlie's
email.

Thanks.

Everyone that has ever participated in a bakeoff has had to modify their code to
NOT comply with RFC2002 in order to interoperate. RFC 2002 has a bug, and this
new version is intending on fixing that. It is rather unfortunate that RFC 2002 
had this bug, but IMHO anyone that has an implementation which includes this
RFC 2002 bug (SPI) is not compliant and will not interoperate.

Regardless of the service being provided.

As far as support for HMAC-MD5, I don't see a problem. Manufacturers of
Foreign and Home agents that wish to see any product sales will support
prefix+suffix MD5 to support the existing RFC 2002 installed base. Of course,
these same products should allow for a switch to turn off support for
prefix+suffix MD5 in order to protect itself again possible attacks.

My 2 cents,

PatC

Since ROAMOPS was specifically looking at the dial-up market, perhaps it is time
to revive the WG to look at wireless roaming implications.

Does this make sense?

I believe I have already sufficiently answered Alper's implementation
complexity arguments on it. 

As for ICMP, I doubt anyone wants to hear my opinion at this time on the
security and/or privacy threats it has and how it should be changed
especially with the recent network hammering that is still happening;
nevertheless, I don't see the relationship of your argument.  

What is your goal in trying to get rid of the piggybacking:

1> rock the boat marketing
2> nuke MIPv6 down to MIPv4
3> use IPSEC and don't change IPSEC

I find it quite odd that you are bringing up the IKE++ thing especially when
you have been such an ardent Kerberos proponent. Please explain?

It seems to me that if you value IPSEC so much - change it to do the job.
People have even gone so far as to make some suggestions on how to do it.
There is nothing wrong with the BU piggybacking. It aint broke - don't fix
it or nuke it; although it may have been more appropriate to make it a
routing header, IMO.

 I'm a little pieved that I'm the one standing up for something I didn't
even suggest in the first place. 

Since we are all expressing our personal opinions today. I'll also add that
I believe the binding updates functions should be a MUST for ALL CNs - at
least then you will have some form of mobility "built in" IP. I'll make a
deal with you - you get this changed to a MUST and I might seriously
consider getting rid of piggybacking. 

That will stick mobility right down the 3GPP mobile vendors' "kinda - sort
of" IPv6 (without mobility) throat. This is such lovely "design by
committee" comprimise work - isn't it. These vendors claim they can't to MIP
but they propose huge SIP compression dictionaries - ahhhh right - talk to
the hand - I really need some big waders at this point.

In hindsite, perhaps the mobility should have been part of the IPng WG. I
suspect it would be done by now - no offense intended to the MIP WG chairs
or authors. It is just that the focus would likely have been greater as well
as the influence and communication on IPSEC.

I'll let you or others express their opinions. No more time for this stuff.
I'm hope this was an enjoyable read for many.

Glenn
 

------------------ Previous snip -------

   Fine. On 10bT ethernet the marginal gains in
   bandwidth efficiency are not worth the added
   complexity in the stack, both for normal IP
   processing as Alper pointed out, path MTU
   considerations, as well as the complexities 
   that arise from things that have to deal with
   5-tuple processing like IPsec and RSVP. If 
   you don't believe that, then why shouldn't
   we piggyback ICMP messages on TCP connections?

Are you concerned about the link-local addresses used e.g. by OSPF to
communicate with the routers on the home link, or some other use of
link locals?

Given the current specification, which says that the HA must not tunnel
link locals to the MN, I think the only solution is
to make the MR, when away from home, have a router adjacency with the HA
i.e. it will be two hops away from the other routers on the home link.
This might mean that when moving to or from the home link all
the adjacencies will be torn down and new ones created.
Or it could choose to always maintain a tunneled adjacency with the HA - even
when at home.

But that means that the MN will see e.g. all mulicast ND packets which might 
not be that good use of bandwidth. From an architectural perspective this
would make the HA an L2 bridge instead of a L3 router.
If there are different links the thing that connects them is a router
and link-locals don't cross between links.

3. I'm not convinced that IPsec is what was to
blame here. MIPv6 was trying to use it in a way
that wasn't really appropriate and there seems
to be pretty simple workarounds to use IPsec the
way it was intended to be used. Given that the
work arounds seems to mostly neutral depending
on your view of piggybacking, I'd much rather
not have to take on the task of either:

1) changing IPsec selectors
2) changing IKE and/or counting on something new

Piggybacking is the casualty; so be it. Nice
idea, but not worth the trouble.

 > I find it quite odd that you are bringing up the IKE++ thing especially when

It's actually not contradictory. I think that IKE
with certificates has scaling problems in certain
though common cases; the cost of DH/RSA signatures
is considerable when you are talking about high
fanout servers/routers. Restart avalanches are a
large problem, with restart times measured in the
many, many minutes range.

That said, IKE is here, it works, and warts and
all is the only workable solution for peer keying
we have. Other keying schemes MAY eventually
replace IKE where something else is more
appropriate, but given the long and difficult
development cycle for IKE, it would be foolish to
not hedge bets to some degree by being able to
drop in what is at least known to work.

But there is something wrong with it: it breaks
the intended use of IPsec. Also: it's not even
clear that a routing update should be carried 
as an option which is normally handled by the
kernel. Indeed, if you don't have access to the
kernel, having BU's as a UDP or IP proto would
allow an external daemon to camp on the port
and add the necessary routing updates which is
almost certainly infeasible as a DO.

I think my note had "basic" in there :-)

If you want something more signifant to think about then there is
the train case with different adminstrations and a different HA for
the MR (HA1) and a for a particular MN on the train (HA2).

In order to illustrate the route optimization choices let's look at
a possible way to approach this problem:

Without route optimization that case works as follows:
MR updates HA1 with its current topological location as the train
moves.
When MN arrives on the train it uses addrconf to get an address under MR's 
prefix. Create co-located COA. It updates HA2 with this as the COA.

CN looks up MN in DNS. Sends packet to that are intercepted by HA2.
HA2 tunnels packets towards MR thuse the packets are routed towards HA1.
HA1 in turn tunnels the packets to MR's COA.

MR decapsulated and sends the singly-tunneled packets to MN's COA.

For the forward path there are two HAs that can be optimized out.
Depending on traffic patterns and relative movement speed at the
two attachment points (MN attaching to MR, and MR attaching to some
access router along the train track) all 4 possibilities of optimization might
make sense
 - optimize out both HAs
 - optimize out HA2 (if MN stays on the train for a long time)
 - optimize out HA1 (as long as MR doesn't get handed off too often)
 - optimize out none

So just like in the simple mobile node case there are tradeoffs between
the signalling involved in doing route optimizations and savings from
more efficient routing, but in the MR case there are more variants
on what to optimize.

Pekka,

This is really no different than saying that _ANY_
service which relies on IPsec layer
integrity/confidentiality MUST cross check which
credentials were supplied to create that SA to
perform an authorization check. This is really no
different than using transport/ESP for SIP traffic
and then making the rash assumption that it will
also protect you from forgery attacks in the
inside payload (eg, IPsec says mat@cisco.com, but
SIP From: gwb@whitehouse.gov). There are obviously
other attacks (authorization attacks too), but
what is pertinent is that the cross checking must
be performed at upper layers as appropriate.

Correct. However, in a lot of situations (a)
brings acceptible risks. In particular, enterprise
like situations make all kinds of assumptions that
insiders will be basically honest which greatly
simplifies security policy (whether this is
misguided is a different discussion). Also: even
in situations where users are not fully trusted,
policing may be able to provide an adequate risk
if the penalty is high enough (ie, lose service if
you hack, etc.)

Except for the fact that there's a long standing
and now very public moratorium on new IKE development.

I could be, but I would think that opportunistic 
encryption would be a better way to achieve the
same ends.

A quick question...when this was discussed on the mailing list last
month, Kent and Gopal raised the issue of making MD5 also a MUST
in RFC2002bis.  Discussion followed whether MD5 should be a MUST
or a SHOULD for backwards compatibility...with the understanding that 
HMAC_MD5 would be a MUST.  So, is the idea now not to even mention this 
use of MD5?  Please clarify.

Thanks,

Before assuming that a new DOI is subject to the moratorium it would
make sense to check with the security ADs - I don't know the answer.

Doradla,

My understanding is that although the GPRS standard specifies MIP
for inter-GGSN handover, there has been very little effort to clarify
exactly how this would work and how it would interact with GTP-based
mobility, primarily, I'm told, due to lack of operator interest.
I do not know if manufacturers are even building MIP into their terminals.
So, prior to figuring out at the IP level how heterogeneous handover
would work, there is a need to figure out in GPRS how MIP and GPRS
will work together.

Well I couldn't resist one last comment - Gosh  - why doesn't RSVP use
IPSEC?

Apparently IPSEC isn't to blame for this either?  

I think we should force RSVP to use IPSEC based upon your logic. Hey - I
guess we'll have to get rid of the router alert to get RSVP to work. Routing
headers are O.K. though. Yeah - each router knows based upon the destination
address in the routing header where to directly send the packet hop by hop
or over tunnels - that's the ticket.

RSVP would be too complex with the router alert in conjunction with IPSEC
based upon your logic? RSVP needs to rely on IKE for distribution - it has
to or the sky will fall out. I guess we can't use RSVP at all ever because
it doesn't use IKE and IPSEC. I guess there is something inherently wrong
with RSVP - it breaks IPSEC. We wouldn't be leveraging our bets if all
routers and hosts which employ RSVP didn't use IKE for key distribution.

Though these arguments above are quite ludicrous, it does hopefully point
out the injustice in your reasoning. 

As I recall authors of MIP did have designs on IPSEC to handle the exact
point we are discussing now and apparently their arguments for its
definitition didn't make it in probably because wireless devices were a
twinkle in most peoples' (wirehead) eyes at the time or they simply didn't
understand the intent; nevertheless, here we are today. So blame is probably
disputable.


RSVP didn't use IPSEC because it wasn't designed to deal with that
particular network service. To force IPSEC on MIP or take things away from
it so it can use IPSEC would be pathetic. TLS/HTTPs don't use IPSEC. I don't
see people standing up and yelling about that and the service seems to work
just fine. It seems that IKE can be used in conjunction with TLS too -
right? MIP could use IKE++ for key distribution without IPSEC. These are
disjunct issues.

As for the routing updates being handled by the kernal, I personally feel
that per node routing updates belong in purpose built machines (routers)
designed to handle the lookups of fairly large cached routing tables at the
edge - not hosts. But that is an entirely different topic. I think when we
finally get into more optimization issues in conjunction with other network
based services such as multicast, VPNs, anycast, privacy and security
threats, people will eventually change their tune. I suspect a few highly
publicized civil cases involving the victims of stalkers or assassins will
provide the impetus.

The original BBNers seemed to take this purpose built machine thought into
account. Perhaps I'm old school on this but I guess time will tell. The fact
that there is no IPv6 checksum certainly eliminates a great deal of concern
about the bundling of options and their removal before delivery to the upper
layers or end-hosts irrespective of whether they contained routing
information or not.

3. I'm not convinced that IPsec is what was to
blame here. MIPv6 was trying to use it in a way
that wasn't really appropriate and there seems
to be pretty simple workarounds to use IPsec the
way it was intended to be used. Given that the
work arounds seems to mostly neutral depending
on your view of piggybacking, I'd much rather
not have to take on the task of either:

1) changing IPsec selectors
2) changing IKE and/or counting on something new

Piggybacking is the casualty; so be it. Nice
idea, but not worth the trouble.

It's actually not contradictory. I think that IKE
with certificates has scaling problems in certain
though common cases; the cost of DH/RSA signatures
is considerable when you are talking about high
fanout servers/routers. Restart avalanches are a
large problem, with restart times measured in the
many, many minutes range.

That said, IKE is here, it works, and warts and
all is the only workable solution for peer keying
we have. Other keying schemes MAY eventually
replace IKE where something else is more
appropriate, but given the long and difficult
development cycle for IKE, it would be foolish to
not hedge bets to some degree by being able to
drop in what is at least known to work.

But there is something wrong with it: it breaks
the intended use of IPsec. Also: it's not even
clear that a routing update should be carried 
as an option which is normally handled by the
kernel. Indeed, if you don't have access to the
kernel, having BU's as a UDP or IP proto would
allow an external daemon to camp on the port
and add the necessary routing updates which is
almost certainly infeasible as a DO.

It is feasible and 3G TS 29.061 and 3G TS 23.060 tell at a high level how to
do that.
This is an optional feature of UMTS and GPRS systems.

Pat,

This sounds like an excellent idea. I hope we can get some 3GPP WISP
representation, since there seems to be a particular need in this
area for defining wireless roaming interoperability.

The intent is to have HMAC-MD5 as the MUST for the authentication
algorithm. But MD5 will still be mentioned in the updated I-D.

OK...but, mentioned HOW?  MUST or SHOULD?  The issue is that 
even though IESG advised on HMAC_MD5 as default, we need to ensure
backwards compatibility.  And I am still unclear on the ramifications
that Charlie outlined.  

Bottom line...breaking backwards compatibility is not acceptable or 
advisable, especially since there are MIP deployments out there.

Thanks,

Okay here's the proposed text in the I-D :

"
5.1. Message Authentication Codes

   Home agents and mobile nodes MUST be able to perform authentication.
   The default algorithm is HMAC-MD5 [23], with a key size of 128 bits.
   The foreign agent MUST also support authentication using HMAC-MD5 and
   key sizes of 128 bits or greater, with manual key distribution.  Keys
   with arbitrary binary values MUST be supported.

   The "prefix+suffix" use of MD5 to protect data and a shared secret
   is considered vulnerable to attack by the cryptographic community.
   Where backward compatibility with existing Mobile IP implementations
   that use this mode is needed, new implementations SHOULD include
   keyed MD5 [40] as one of the additional authentication algorithms
   for use when producing and verifying the authentication data that is
   supplied with Mobile IP registration messages, for instance in the
   extensions specified in sections 3.5.2,  3.5.3, and 3.5.4.

   More authentication algorithms, algorithm modes, key distribution
   methods, and key sizes MAY also be supported for all of these
   extensions.
"

I realize your concern about backwards compatibility, but as Pat
mentioned
earlier the 2002 spec itself had a bug and since we are in the process
of fixing
that, we can also fix the security vulnerabiltiy.

As a SHOULD

But wouldn't it be irresponsible for us to tell folks to use something
that is known to be cryptographically weak? Do we really want another
WEP fiasco?

As I've mentioned before, the fact that is a SHOULD will lead people to
add a switch to allow admins to turn it on/off. That's all we want.
People that care, and want to make money, will support both modes.

Further, shipping products based on a proposed standard has always been
risky, since things can change when moving to Draft Standard (and believe
me, I've been on the receiving side more than once).

I'm not really sure what this outburst is about,
but it doesn't seem to have much to do with the
merits of piggybacking so I'll bow out.

To force IPSEC on MIP or take things away from it so it can use IPSEC would be pathetic. TLS/HTTPs don't use IPSEC. I don't see people standing up and yelling about that and the service seems to work just fine. It seems that IKE can be used in conjunction with TLS too - right?

Hi.. 

I mean that they - operators in Korea - have already deployed
the product for Mobile IP service such as PDSN/FA and HA.

However I have not heard that there are commercial or free
software for Mobile Node.

We tested that Mobility with the software which works in Linux.
You know Linux software is not easy to be a commercial product :-)
What I want to say is that the system working well for Mobile IP.
But I think there is no subscriber who is using the Mobile IP service.

Regards
Chae-yong

Why? The DOI does not specify how authentication data is created.
That is done in AH (2402) or ESP (2406) RFC.

I had hoped that this would be something addressable in (B)URP ...
Or am I totally off base?

The use of IKE with -14 authentication doesn't
require a full DoI. It requires an _extension_
to the current DoI. Such extensions are regurlarly
done to add algorithms. This extension would be
a bit bigger perhaps -- adding a new protocol --
but still basically a number allocation in some
defined place.

However, one drawback of using IKE with -14
authentication is that other key management
protocols would have to be updated also. For
instance, the possible Son-of-IKE protocol
would also be affected. (It may be that
all these protocols share the same DoI and
algorithm numbers, but I'm not sure if this
would be the case always.)

That's right. Routing protocols such as OSPF or RIP uses link-local
addresses, both for communication and of course identifies adjacent
routers by their link-local addresses.

Both sounds reasonable. But home agents are routers, and if you want
redundancy or load sharing by using multiple home agents on the home
link, you would anyway end up with multiple routers adjacent to the MR.
Unless you explicitly choose one of the HAs, also when you are at home.

Regarding your first proposal to have MR adjacent to all routers on the
home link when it is home, and then make it reachable behind the HA when
not at home: how fast can routing protocols reflect this change? If the
other routers are not updated quickly when the MR moves away, they will
keep sending packets to MR's link-local address (according to routing
protocol). The HA has sent proxy NA for MR's link-local address, and the
packets will end up at the HA, which will tunnel them to the MR. This
way will work.

Soon after MR has moved away it will now send routing protocol updates
through the bi-directional tunnel to the HA. Routers on the home link
will know the mobile network is behind HA. They will now send packets to
the HA's link-local address.

When the MR returns home, MR will de-register with HA. Still, the
routers have the HA's link-local address as gateway for the mobile
network, until the MR sends new routing protocol updates on the link.
During this interval, packets will be lost. The HA itself doesn't know
where to send the packets that the routers keep sending to it.

Either, synchronize the BUs with the routing protocol updates, or use a
tunnel to the HA, also when the MR is at home.

Ok.

Or maybe ND packets can be filtered out.

Yes, I would also like to see it more clearly.  As I understand it
from Thierry's works:
-avoid that every MN sends a BU when the entire subnet changes the
 attachment point.  Send only one BU covering all MN's.
-avoid maintaining "per-host tunnels" in the HA for every MN in the
 mobile subnet.  Use routing features instead, only one entry in the
 HA's binding cache for all MN's in the mobile subnet.
-the MN's in the mobile network are not aware of mobility.

We should probably evaluate how much of the above items are
non-problems and how much of them are true problems.

Cheers,

Alex

There's at least one thing that won't work in this scenario: when HA
defends MR's Home Address it has an entry in the Binding Cache
containing MR's CoA and MR's Home Address, but not the MNN's Home
Address.  Thus it can't relate an incoming packet for that MNN to that
MNN's Home Address.  Unless more clarification is added to how the
Binding Cache is searched.

Quoting from -13:

         "-  The home address of the mobile node for which this is the
             Binding Cache entry.  This field is used as the key for
             searching the Binding Cache for the destination address of
             a packet being sent.  If the destination address of the
             packet matches the home address in the Binding Cache entry,
             this entry SHOULD be used in routing that packet."

         "-  The care-of address for the mobile node indicated by
             the home address field in this Binding Cache entry.  If
             the destination address of a packet being routed by a
             node matches the home address in this entry, the packet
             SHOULD be routed to this care-of address, as described in
             Section 8.9, for packets originated by this node, or in
             Section 9.6, if this node is the mobile node's home agent
             and the packet was intercepted by it on the home link."


Having said this, I know there'll be change on how and where this
subject will be treated, I'll adapt accordingly later.

First I think you mean " HA says 'yes' " (?) A part of your text seem to
have disappeared here...
In my understanding you have a malicious Mobile Router _and_ a malicious
Home Agent, the former counting on the latter to validate faked Binding
Updates. 
Now when CN sends a 'question message' to MR's Home Address, malicious
HA should not discard the message but continue the process. Well... but
the question is: why would the home address be routed towards your
attacking Home Agent? Do you mean you have also managed to remotely
configure routing tables of the target Home Network? Then you are not
limited to a faked BU attack and can envision large scale DoS against
the Home Network...

Correct me if I am wrong: you mean that BAKE is secure in the sense that
the reachability of the MN is verfied. For a MR we should then verify
the reachability of all nodes the MR serves. I do not think it is the
only means. In the solution we propose, we use the same process to make
sure that we can reach the MR via its Home Address (so should be each
node below, provided that MR does not lie). BUT in addition to that
basic verification, HA is required to check the prefix the MR sent a BU
for (check the binding [MR H@ / Mobile prefix]). Thus we guarantee that
any node served by MR will be reachable through the new MR Care-of
Address.

I am not sure.  I may have missed something here.  I agree with you in
the simplest case where the "Mobile Network Prefix" is the same as the
"home link prefix" with a longer prefix, otherwise I am kind of
sceptical.

INRIA MIPv6 is actually FreeBSD.
If distinct implementations lead to distinct results, this means that
the MIPv6 specification needs a word about it.  It is not clear if the
HA is able to tunnel packets intended to the other devices behind the
mobile router.  The processing of the R-bit by the HA needs
clarification.

Exact...

... and this would  introduce other issues.

What I am saying here is that things get more complicated for a mobile
node which is also router.   There are many issues to care about, and
this cannot be solved as easily as one would think.

No - no attack is needed on the routing system.

I have a home address (X/128) which is routed towards my HA.
That part is legimtimate.

But this doesn't mean I have authority to affect routing for e.g. 
the X/3 prefix.
How can a CN tell whether a given HA+MR is allowed to affect routing
for a given prefix? That is the core of the authorization issue.

So how do you handle the case I'm trying to explain above?

By basic, you mean "no routing optimization".  I advocate that providing
routing optimization is a requirement.  You also demonstrate a need to
support VMNs; at the same time this also highlights an even more
important need for routing optimization.

Nested mobility.

What do you mean by "current topological location" ?  You probably want
to say "its current COA".

Double dog-leg routing, and double encapsulation on the wireless link.  
Something we should definitely avoid.

A /3 is not a really a  good instance of a prefix.  I would rather say a
/48.

What we need:
- first, the MR must "own" the prefix /P.  This means that whatever
prefix longer than P belongs to MR.
- second, a means to certify that prefix /P is effectively owned by MR.

GPRS standards (i.e., 23.060) do not specify MIP for inter-GGSN handover.

Doradla,

My understanding is that although the GPRS standard specifies MIP
for inter-GGSN handover, there has been very little effort to clarify
exactly how this would work and how it would interact with GTP-based
mobility, primarily, I'm told, due to lack of operator interest.
I do not know if manufacturers are even building MIP into their terminals.
So, prior to figuring out at the IP level how heterogeneous handover
would work, there is a need to figure out in GPRS how MIP and GPRS
will work together.

We had a discussion on this earlier this year. Anyway, the I-Ds are not
explicit about packet handling, mostly because it is up to the
implementor. This is also a source of misunderstanding.

I proposed (and Erik means the same, I think) to do a mapping between
the MR's home address and its CoA in the HA. A binding for the mobile
prefix (that MNNs belong to) is not needed, since the HA _should already
have_ one in its routing table. This entry is created from routing
protocols between the MR and the home link routers, including the HA.
That entry simply tells the HA to route traffic to the mobile prefix to
the gateway address of the MR.

[Ok, this introduces another problem. The gateway address should be a
link-local address, since routing protocols use that. Mobile IPv6 does
not suggest forwarding of packets destined to a link-local addresses,
but the destination in the packets are e.g. global, since its the MNN.
However, the HA will first have to do a lookup on the destination
address (MNN), and it will see that it should use MR's link-local
address. Next, it should consult its Binding Cache to find that this
packet should be forwarded to the MR's CoA by using a tunnel. The
special order in which routing table and binding cache lookups needs to
be done is far from common practice, and I don't think this will work
smoothly with all implementations out there.]

But the Mobile Network Prefix can't be a subset of the home link prefix.
They should be parallel and both have /64. Or am I wrong? Don't you want
ordinary hosts on the home link as well?

I know. My feeling with the example in your draft is to support your
prefix BU. Perhaps INRIA's implementation could be made to work like I
described, without use of of prefix BU. Not without modification, but
anyway.

Good point.

I agree. This is not so easy at all. Mobile IP as a general vision could
probably seem to work fine for both hosts and routers. But with all work
currently done with MIPv6, ND and so on is to support mobile hosts only.
In the detailed design work, only hosts have been considered. Nobody
really thought on the routers, until now.

Thanks for replying to my enquiry. I have looked at the 3GPP documents.  MIP
has been incorporated as an option for mobility management (i think it is
document 3GPP TS 29.023??).  Basically, there were three options laied out.
They are:
1.  Incorporating MIP totally in a 3GPP core
2.  Incorporate MIP and GTP together
3.  Make enhancements to GTP for mobility management.

You do bring up a good point that we need to understand how vendors are
implementing MIP in GPRS networks.  My 2 cents is that present GPRS networks
that are being deployed across the world do not incorporate MIP. 
As far as handsets are concered, we have not looked at them closely.  
BTW, do you have any references that you can lead me on to ??

Thanaks a lot

GPRS standards (i.e., 23.060) do not specify MIP for inter-GGSN handover.

Doradla,

My understanding is that although the GPRS standard specifies MIP
for inter-GGSN handover, there has been very little effort to clarify
exactly how this would work and how it would interact with GTP-based
mobility, primarily, I'm told, due to lack of operator interest.
I do not know if manufacturers are even building MIP into their terminals.
So, prior to figuring out at the IP level how heterogeneous handover
would work, there is a need to figure out in GPRS how MIP and GPRS
will work together.

Is HA necessarily located in the BR (Thierry's border router)?  Is HA
necessarily running a routing protocol?  Is HA necessarily
participating in route exchanges if it's not a router?  I need to
understand this.

I agree with the link-local reasoning.  In fact I also pointed it to
Thierry late last year.  Hopefully it will make it into future
versions of the draft.

This works fine if HA has a route to MR's subnet.

An alternative to coupled binding cache/route table lookups would be
to extend the binding cache entry with a third address: the network
prefix behind the respective home address.  This way the HA is not
required to participate in route maintenance (route maintenance is
done not only for subnets behind MR's but also all other fixed routers
on same home link).

This alternative is different from Thierry's draft as well as from the
short lived -14.

I searched for 29.023 but did not find a document under this number in R99,
R4, nor R5.
Would you kindly refer me to where this document can be found.

The working document for GPRS is 23.060. It has all related procedures
including mobility management. 
One thing I am sure is not there is Inter-GGSN handoff (Hand-over)
procedures.

Further,  If my memory serves me well, I recall reading that this issue is
out of the scope of this document.

If this issue is to come up, I believe 3GPP SA2 will be the place to raise
this issue.
  
Regards,

Kamel

Thanks for replying to my enquiry. I have looked at the 3GPP documents.  MIP
has been incorporated as an option for mobility management (i think it is
document 3GPP TS 29.023??).  Basically, there were three options laied out.
They are:
1.  Incorporating MIP totally in a 3GPP core
2.  Incorporate MIP and GTP together
3.  Make enhancements to GTP for mobility management.

You do bring up a good point that we need to understand how vendors are
implementing MIP in GPRS networks.  My 2 cents is that present GPRS networks
that are being deployed across the world do not incorporate MIP. 
As far as handsets are concered, we have not looked at them closely.  
BTW, do you have any references that you can lead me on to ??

Thanaks a lot

GPRS standards (i.e., 23.060) do not specify MIP for inter-GGSN handover.

Doradla,

My understanding is that although the GPRS standard specifies MIP
for inter-GGSN handover, there has been very little effort to clarify
exactly how this would work and how it would interact with GTP-based
mobility, primarily, I'm told, due to lack of operator interest.
I do not know if manufacturers are even building MIP into their terminals.
So, prior to figuring out at the IP level how heterogeneous handover
would work, there is a need to figure out in GPRS how MIP and GPRS
will work together.

Indeed, I wouldn't exclude this case. 

What do you mean by "If routing is consistent and transparent with
regards to this home link, I also think that this is the ideal solution.
" in a previous mail ?  You just want to say that MR does not need to
carry the Mobile Network Prefix in order to register with the HA ?

I could only agree with you as far as you don't want routing
optimization.  But an important aim of my draft is to allow optimal
routing, and the prefix is needed for that.  This is the justification. 
Do you disagree with that ?

Yes. Then, the conclusion would be that we should add something like the
following in the MIPv6 spec:
"MIPv6 is a solution to support mobile nodes.  It does not support nodes
behind a mobile router".  Dot.  I don't remember who, but someone said
that we have to insure that what is in the mipv6 draft does not pretend
to support mobile networks.  Then, mobile networks will be addressed in
an other spec.

I think that we had consensus on this at last MIP WG meeting.

TR 29.023 v3.0.0 is a Technical Report, not a TS. You may find it here:
http://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/2001-03/R1999/23_series/

GGSN is the anchor point of a registered PDP context, no handover is needed if
MS stays in the GPRS network.

As I see it, HA is a router since it forwards traffic that is not
destined to itself. It can have one physical interface (but maybe one
additional virtual tunnel interface for each MN it serves).

Yeah, maybe. But I feel that we should try to make Mobile IPv6 with
minimal inpact on other protocols.

If HA is a standard router as well, should it have special handling of
routes to some adjacent routers (i.e. MRs)? What if the MR is at home -
should it now exchange routing info with the HA as a normal router would
do?

Or maybe we need restrictions on how home links are configured and what
nodes we put there.

First, I still can accept that we use prefix scoped BUs. For another
reason, that is not part of this particular discussion, I suggested that
each MNN takes care of its own home registration. It has pros and cons,
but at least we don't need to check authorization of prefixes.

The HA, when acting as a CN (i.e. initiating traffic itself), *then* it
would need a prefix scoped BU. But when it is only intercepting and
forwarding packets initiated by others, a standard entry in the binding
cache plus a routing entry for the mobile network prefix would be
sufficient.

Back to your first question: I get the feeling that some original design
ideas behind Mobile IP was to emulate that the MN is at home, even when
it isn't. To do this, we need a helping hand (the HA), but we should
make as little impact as possible. But with current Mobile IPv6 spec,
somewhere a line is drawn which says that functions on one side is
emulated so that everyone using these functions towards the MN thinks
the MN is always at home, while a few other functions can't be hidden.
Example of latter are: link-local addresses, ND, home address address
assignment (especially stateful), mobile routers... 

Since we have decided not to forward link-local addresses, we will have
to take the consequences of that. This short-cut or optimization was
good for one thing (not wasting bandwidth) but is bad when we (I) want
to make MRs work like they were always at home.

I want route optimization too. I just feel that maybe forwarding and CN
part of HA can be separated, and you are doing to much to make it work.
The forwarding part would work anyway, without prefix scoped BU. But the
CN part needs it. Please see above.

   Are you implying that if I wanted to use the current IPsec

   with IKE as-is? If nothing else, how would the quick mode
   exchange know which to stuff the keying material in?

HA indeed "forwards" traffic but not at IP level, thus it's not a
router.  HA builds tunnells to its MN's, in something some call the
"Mobile IP plane", different than the "IP routing plane".

Fair enough.

But I thought we talk here Mobile Networks and not Mobile IPv6.  My
approach is to stay independent of the searches in the routing table.
I see this as having minimal impact on other things.  Or what did you
mean by "other protocols"?

HA _software_ could run on the same machine that runs routing
_software_ but I think the two should be as independent as possible.
The question you pose above being related to routing software it
should have no impact on HA.

You stated previously you wish minimal impact on other protocols.  I
understand this as "don't modify routing protocols" and "least modify
Mobile IP".

What does a MR being "at home" mean? A router typically bridges subnets
and so it is not entirely obvious to me what it means for a MR to
have a home agent nor what the router's home subnet would be.

One could I suppose take the outward interface (if the subnet
behind the MR is a leaf) and assign a home address to that,
but then where is the HA? A router is more identified by the
prefix of the subnet behind the router than by an address.

This is, of course, the simplest case. If there were multiple
outgoing interfaces on the router, or multiple subnets behind
the router, including perhaps another router that connected
into the fixed network, things get much more complicated.

Hi folks,
I am really glad to see so much conversation in the Mobile Router
thread. It is clear that there is a lot of interest in this topic, and
the problem is understood, though the problem scope needs more
definition.

This week I am at our office in Helsinki, where it is very difficult for
me to read or send messages from this address, and for the next three
weeks I'll be on vacation. So I will not be able to participate until I
return to the US in a month, at which point I'm hoping the problem will
already be solved.  (Just kidding)

One question I would like to pose, is the best way to address this issue
going forward, and I would appreciate comments from the WG chairs and
ADs as well. There has already been draft activity and discussion of
this issue in the WG meetings, and I heard Phil R. say at IETF51 that
although the WG title specifically mentions mobile HOSTS, mobile
networks are not excluded from the charter per se. So what is the best
way to tackle this? Continue status quo? Design team? BOF? .....?

Talk to you all in September...
-TJ

 In your previous mail you wrote:

   > I hope this helps to clarify the situation.
   
=> as we are not beginning from scratch, I'd like to add some comments
about IKE.
There are three important peer properties for IKE in this context:
 - the IPv6 address used for IKE exchanges
 - the phase one identity which can be an address or a name or other thing
 - the phase two identity which is not an identity but the peer address
   of the SA pair.
 The only restriction on the first (transport) address is the transport
must work, so with a common correspondent both the home and the care-of
addresses are right (with a lot of pros/cons) but with the home agent
for the (first?) home registration from visit only the care-of address works.
This last point gives a MUST in I-D 14 but in fact the MUST should not be
for all cases (cf previous threads in this list about it).
 The phase one identity is very important because this gives th
authentication. There is a special complexity with shared secrets so
I assume X.509 certificates are used (and a PKI is available).
The subjectName or an alternate subjectName of a valid certificate must
match the identity (or certicates are not useful, cf a thread in IPsec
list if this is not obvious). If the identity is an address most
implementation checks it against the transport address.
 The phase two identity (i.e. the SA source address selector) must be
the home address because of the home address option processing rules
and because a new SA pair per hand-off (the rationale for the rules)
would be too expensive. If the identities between the two phases are
different then there is an authorization constraint. IKE documents
don't explain how to express this authorization, nor implementation
examination... There is only one case where a good solution (i.e.
something which already runs) is the home agent which already knows
all the potential mobile nodes.
 I can resume choices:
  - care-of for transport, phase one address identity => doesn't work
  - care-of for transport, phase one name identity => authorization issue
  - home for transport => works but not for home registration
   
   In case A (IKE and AH/ESP) I think one way of getting the
   authorization is to have the SA be created between the home address and the
   correspondent. Thus in this case the routability to the home address can
   be used implicitly by IKE in the key exchange.
   
=> this is the simple solution but there is an important exception...

   Thus as long as there is a way for iked to tell IP to ignore 
   the binding cache when sending the IKE packets this should fall out
   pretty easy unless I'm confused. (Of course, my confusion increases 
   assympotically during the IETF week :-)
   
=> throw away this binding cache consideration...

   Such an approach would mean that you would need to do something
   different with respect to IKE for the MN to HA exchanges since
   in that case you can't rely on the HA reaching the MN as a way
   to establish authorization.

=> the MN to HA is special but we can assume many things too!

   Thus in this case you want to associate
   a something (shared secret, certificate) with the authority to "be"
   a certain MN. But this is a local issue contained within the HA
   as far as I can tell.
   
=> any local ad hoc mechanism works. The only trouble with IKE
in this (MN-HA) case is with IKE performance (cf proposals to use AAA
in an opportunistic way, KINK or HIP will be great too).

Regards

Francis.Dupont@enst-bretagne.fr

PS: two other ideas (results of authentication/authorization brain storming):
 - a "home address" identity
 - lookups for key or cert RRs in the DNSSEC reverse (i.e. ip6.arpa) map.

TJ,

Thanx for bringing this up.

IMHO, the MIP group should concentrate on MIP for hosts. There are
enough problems there to keep the group busy, and more will emerge
as MIP begins to see wider deployment (example: the NAT/VPN discussion
at IETF 51). 

While I can't claim to have studied the problem in much detail, I
wonder if perhaps we shouldn't return to first principles when
trying to solve the mobile router problem, rather than trying to
shoehorn the solution into a MIP framework. We could probably come
up with a solution within the MIP framework for a limited class of mobile 
networks, but we may regret adopting the solution later when people
try to modify it for more complex cases and it doesn't work. That 
said, I can understand completely the desire to try to come up
with a solution within the MIP framework, especially for cases
such as a PAN, since they look like they may be coming along sooner
than expected.

Hi,

This is about mandating HMAC-MD5 for MobileIP as per the current
discussions in 2002bis.
My colleagues' and my concern is that this is not backwards compatible
with RFC2002.
I think indicating MD5 as SHOULD is not sufficient. 

What if three years from now,
new authentication algorithms come up. Shouldn't we have a mechanism to
indicate to
the Mobile Entity what algorithm to use to authenticate the peer entity?
Probably by
means of an extension (too costly) or just by adding a field in the
authentication
extension itself? I think this is a good time to do that. 

HMAC-MD5/MD5 as MUST/SHOULD in that order, as per me is not sufficient.
I would prefer
SHOULD/MUST order for HMAC-MD5/MD5 to be backwards compatible.

I heard/read one argument that RFC2002 was never a draft standard and
2002bis is on 
that track. My argument is that RFC2002 is out for about 4/5 years now
and it is
obvious that there would be implementation/deployment out there. IETF is
not ITU
where in everyone waits till a whole reference architecture document is
published
on a consensus. I have no intention to trash ITU here, but am trying to
make
it obvious for a need to be backwards compatible to what had been
agreed/recommended
in 2002.

Thanks

In fact, it's not necessarily the HA. It's the
topologically closest router to the CN which
advertises that prefix. For a /3 (wow, where'd you
get one of those??) that's probably going to be a
core router which wants the Yea or Nay vote on
that, not the HA or anything else.

Another thing to consider is that the HA can
be evil and in collusion with the MR.

Er, if I could smooth the triangular routing for,
say, an aircraft carrier through it's MR's home
agent, that sounds like a pretty big win to me.
In fact, it's arguable that the larger the prefix,
the larger the motivation to optimize (hence
renumbering too.)

Exactly my point too!

But we should at least start with the two I-Ds that exist. Is "Prefix
Scoped BU" enough as a start? Maybe, in some cases. The requirements I-D
should reflect the discussions we have here.

Throw in a NAT, if you want a quick solution... ;)

Ok. That's your terminology and your point of view. I explained mine. I

Because if Mobile IPv6 (or Mobile Network Support) must have a protocol
hack or its own proprietary for each other L3 protocol, I am getting
scared. I hope we don't have to do that.

Still, how should the MR function when it is at home? Then Mobile IPv6
shouldn't do anything, should it? Who would take care of routing updates
then?

Personally, I would like to get away from that old behaviour (that a MN
at home is just like any other node) and go for more homeless mobile
nodes.

You have a point, but I would try to stick to figures and definitions in
draft-ernst-mobileip-monetv6-00.txt.

I see the MR as both a an ordinary MN with one home address and a home
agent, and also as an MR, which also is an MNN.

	=> I think the point is that you can really redirect a LOT of 
	traffic depnding on the length of the prefix that you choose to
	steal. This will probably not happen with a HA but when it 
	comes to the MN - CN it is very difficult to get that

	=> Yes that's the example that Erik gave above. Therefore
	a CN checking the authenticity of MR's BU on an entire
	prefix doesn't solve the problem for a prefix based BU.

Not to mention BGP. Should a BGP autonomous system be advertising prefixes
for "care-of" subnets, i.e. subnets that get their prefixes doled out
to mobile routers when they arrive, even though there may be no 
mobile network there yet?

draft-ietf-mobileip-aaa-key-08.txt, chapter 3,
specifies the algorithms to be used for producing
the authentication information included in the Mobile
Home Authentication extension or the Mobile Foreign
Authentication extension; one of them is SHA-1 (#3).

However, a hash function cannot be used as a MAC
since it does not rely on a secret key (contradictory to
what is stated in chapter 3).

Please clarify how SHA-1 should be used provide
authentication.

Thanks,
Mikael.

Hi ,
    The draft on Route Optimization in Mobile IP
    i.e. draft-ietf-mobileip-optim-10.txt was supposed to expire by 15 Ma=
y 2001.Can I know,is there any rfc based on this draft?.Can we consider t=
his draft as a valid one?

                Thank u

You're absolutely right.  Sorry for making too much of a strong
statement, it's indeed my humble way of seeing things.

I asked also, why not RIP or OSPF?  Several reasons, _IMHO_.  Same
scalability issues that applied when designing Mobile IP will apply to
Mobile Networks.  How fast routes get updated?  How many routes change
at how many routers? Also, in my understanding, off-the-shelf RIP
would not suffice, one needs Triggered RIP.  Also, RIP's bad news
don't propagate quickly, so don't rely on it to tell CN's that MR's
are no longer there.

I completely agree that one could look into routing protocols when
designing a mobile networks solution, but what would be the goal?
Proper setting of RIP/OSPF?  Or a modification of RIP/OSPF?

This is what I believe too.  This is why I'm also proposing not to
tightly couple searches into binding cache with searches into routing
table.

The questions are very valid, IMHO.

Regarding the last question only, why would a router of a small PAN
have to deal with routing updates?  I was thinking it could only have
one (or a few) static routes to its subnet and a default route towards
the AR (this would be discovered with ND, no routing updates).

Wasn't there a draft "homeless Mobile IP" somewhere?

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.


	Title		: Mobile IP Public Key Based Authentication
	Author(s)	: S. Jacobs, S. Belgard
	Filename	: draft-jacobs-mobileip-pki-auth-03.txt
	Pages		: 31
	Date		: 15-Aug-01
	
This document proposes an extension to the Mobile IP base protocol
(RFC 2002) to allow Mobile Nodes (Hosts) and Mobility Agents (both
home network and foreign network) to use X.509 digital certificates,
public keys and digital signatures as the basis of authenticating
Mobile IP control messages in addition to secret key authentication.
The use of these mechanisms will allow Mobile IP to scale from small
research environments to potentially millions of mobile nodes across
thousands of networks owned-operated by different organizations and
service providers.  A Public Key Infrastructure is proposed that
focuses specifically on authentication of Mobile IP knowledgeable
nodes, NOT general use for authenticating individuals.

Depending on approach to the problem people might come up
with different definitions. In the PAN case (and perhaps other scenarios)
it probably makes sense to define the "home link" as the link
where the routers live that the MR has routing adjacencies.
Essentially those routers at home trust the MR to announce routes for
at least its mobile subnet.

In order for the MR to tell those routers at home its current location
the MR need some identity. I think the home address could be such an identity.

Sorry, I can't see what CN this would affect.

Also, your argument is an indicator to that Mobile IPv6 should hide the
fact that the MR is moving. In other words, not show that to RIP.

Erik talked about tunnelling between the MR and HA, also when the MR is
home.

Ok. You want the same thing, only we see different problems here.

Outbound traffic from the MR's subnet is more of default route type. But
still, a router should not be listening to RAs (or a router enabled
interface). Or have I got this all wrong?

Anyway, inbound traffic to the MR's subnet is more problematic. You
suggest static routes. In some cases this is ok, I suppose. But an ISP
with a lot of MRs would likely prefer some automation here. A new
protocol?

Hi,

I have further comments on this draft that I believe have not yet been
mentioned.

-the table in section 6 has threat B.4 but it is not described
 anywhere in the body.
-I propose addition of a DoS attack realized by sending fake Binding
 Acknowledgments (this is also mentioned in
 draft-roe-mobileip-updateauth-00.txt):
   Threat B.5:

   By being able to passively monitor the traffic, the attacker could
   learn about the CNs that the MN is communicating with and also
   determine to which CNs the MN is sending BUs.  The attacker could
   thus synchronize with the MN such that when MN sends a BU to CN
   then attacker replies to MN with a fake Binding Acknowledgment with
   a Status field different than 0.

   Effect B.5:

   This will cause the MN to resend a new Binding Update (subject to
   rate limiting of sending BU's) to CN's.  Depending on timing and
   synchronization, this could result on a DoS or low-grade service:
   the communication between MN and CN can be shut off or it can
   follow an unoptimized triangular route.

   Requirement B.5:

   I don't know.  Probably the mentionned draft has a good idea in
   this respect.

-in section 5 Classification of Attackers, after reading the first
 three lines I'm tempted to understand "link" as a "subnet".  But
 then, a "link" between CN an HA tends to be interpreted more as a
 large portion of Internet, including CN's and HA' subnets.  Thus I
 propose a finer distinction, for example replace:

  "-  an attacker on the link between the CN and the HA

   -  an attacker on the link between the MN and the CN"

 with:

  "-  an attacker on the path between the CN and the HA (except CN's
      and HA's links)

   -  an attacker on the path link between the MN and the CN (except
      CN's and MN's links)"

Thank you for reading these comments,

Alex

Right, I meant CN's TCP will retransmit because MN unreachable.

Right, kind of.  I think a solution can be designed where tunnelling
is used between HA and MR-not-at-home (without tunnelling route
adjacency, looks complex) and routing is used only between HA and
MR-at-home.

YEs, I reread his messages.  Thanks for pointing it out.

Oops, _I_ might have it all wrong.  Shame.

So how do MR's get a CoA?

You enlarge the _number of MR's_, I was saying that the _number of
hosts_ in a PAN is small and thus MR has probably only a very few
prefixes (read 1) it knows to route.

But I'll go back read that route adjacency thread.

Thierry,

By "basic" I meant to imply that while the current MIPv6 spec (through
the R bit in the BU) has some basic support in this general direction -
that's all.

I guage from the discussion that there is interest in doing more
than this. The best way for this to proceed is to initially try to get
shared understanding on a problem statement, terminology, and
how this relates to different scenarious that folks want to deploy.

But please folks (on the mailing list in general), 
don't think that authorization and other security issues
can be left until later - those need to be a fundamental part of the
thinking from the start.

I didn't see anything in that section saying how a random CN 
can trust the prefix privided by the MR in the BU
except bythe CN blindly trusting the HA.

Also, section 5 doesn't even appear to be concerned with the threat
I've brought up (which is that an MR specify a shorter prefix
length than it is authorized to route with the cooperation of the
MR's HA).

The only threat explicitly listed is that an MN served by the MR send
a BU for the prefix, which clearly the HA+MR can reject as pointed out
in that section.

Is there a need for a threat analysis?

If the WG decides to go that path, which is definitely an option,
to be constitent with the above wording the WG needs to remove 
the "R (Router)" bit from the binding update option.

If the WG instead likes to keep that bit the above note needs be written 
to take into account that the R bit can be used to support some very 
limited form of MRs.

Just to be consistent,

Perhaps I've missed a subtle point in the discussion.
Let me try to clarify.
I think it is intractable for a CN to verify the authorization for
BUs for prefixes.
However, a home agent could do this by manual configuration.
In the precense of such manual configuration there might not
need to be a prefix in the BU. The prefix could be implicit
in the prestablished setup between the HA and MR.
Thus when the MR does a binding with its HA the HA would automatically
associate the appropriate prefix route with that prefix.

[However, it would be interesting to compare the resiliency against HA failures
between such a simple scheme and a scheme where the MR establishes effectively
a tunnel to multiple routers on the home link and uses a routing protocol over
those tunnels. Such a scheme would create routing traffic but would be able to
recover from HA failures more rapidly.]

Presumably one can make both the originating and forwarding aspects of
a HA take the prefix into account - the authorization issue is
indepedent of this.

The only concise definition of "router" I know of is captured in RFC 2460:
   router      - a node that forwards IPv6 packets not explicitly
                 addressed to itself.  

By this definition a HA is a router.
Which is your definition of a router?
The HA needs to decrement ttl when forwarding the packets and as far as I
know that is part of the "IP level".

Yes, if we go for a solution where routing protocols will reflect in
some manner that the MR is away, then they have to be fast (which is
unlikely) or the HA must cover up for the MR.

Of course we don't want CN to get destination unreachable icmp error.

This is a paradox, I'm afraid. Routers should not autoconfigure.

Sometimes routers shouldn't even have a global address, but only a
link-local.

I believe we need to do work in this area, because ND spec is not
covering this.

All true, but I meant that there could possibly be a large number of MRs
belonging on the home link, each with one (or multiple) mobile subnets.

I made the distinction HA - router mainly to stress that HA can be
physically separated of the AR and that it is not likely to
participate in route maintenance protocols.  But I might have it all
wrong, thanks for helping me understanding these issues.  I recognize
my ignorance in my first appreciation.

Indeed.

Why isn't Mobile IPv6 spec requiring the HA to join all-routers mc
address?

Why isn't Mobile IPv6 spec requiring the HA to send router
advertisements? [*]

Alex

[*] Well the -13 doesn't require it in 7.3. Requirements for IPv6
    Home Agents, but it does talk about it in 4.1. Basic Operation:

  "This list of home agents is maintained by each home agent on the
   home link through use of the Home Agent (H) bit in each home
   agent's periodic unsolicited multicast Router Advertisements."

I think it would be appropriate to remove the "R" bit. There are too
many issues involved in mobile routers that are not well understood.
If BUs ultimately turn out to be the right way to go to route optimize
for mobile routers, then we can rev the spec and add something to
support prefixes.

You mean that instead of a CoA, a visiting MR would obtain a CoP
(care-of prefix) and renumber its MNN's with it?

In the PAN scenario, the PAN always gets access to the wired network through 
some other radio or wired link, correct? If so, the PAN interface itself is 
never connecting into the wired network directly.

In that case, as Mattias suggested, a NAT on the PAN side would work
just fine (yes, I know NATs are evil, but they are a practical,
short term solution that should be discussed).

I was thinking of the route optimization case, where the MR sends
a BU with a prefix. Should the autonomous system  of the access network reserve 
this prefix and should the prefix be advertised via BGP even if there is
no MR there? Seems like an invitation for even more growth
in routing tables, but if this isn't done, then I suppose
one would have to wait for the updates to propagate before
the prefix was visible outside the autonomous system. I'm
not a BGP expert, so maybe there is some clever way around this.

But now that you mention it, what does a MR having a "home address" mean?
According to Erik's previous definition of a router, a router forwards
traffic that is not sent to it. So other than for handling routing
updates and sending routing advertisements, it is not clear what
a "home address" means for a router. Am I missing something?

I'm not sure how easy this will be since it's used in the binding
cache too and from there into the modified Router Advertisement.

The latter should be kept, I think, being used by other things than
the R bit from cache.

If by "access network" you mean the foreign network then the prefix in
BU sent by MR doesn't belong to the foreign net but to the home net,
so it's not advertised by that BGP right?

If by "access network" you mean the home network then the BGP of the
AS of that could freely advertise that prefix (a superset of it),
because even if MR-not-at-home, its prefix would be defended by the HA
when receiving a BU.

All valid argument.

I was thinking that MR's home address is like a classical MN's home
address.  When MR is not at home, all incoming traffic from CN's to
MNN's, would first go to HA, encapsulated, decapsulated by
MR-not-at-home and forwarded to MNN.  Thus, the scenario agrees with
Erik definition of a router: MR-not-at-home would still forward
traffic not directed to itself.

Sorry for sounding totally clueless, but I'm extrapolating what's
in the BU from what would be in if an MN were to send it. If
an MN sends it, the BU contains the care of address, which is
in the foreign network. Extrapolating, the MR would have
to send a prefix that is in the foreign network. The point of
the BU in the mobile host case is to tell the HA and CN to change
its routing to the new address. The point of the BU for a MR is
presumably to cause a change in the routing tables in subnets
that are corresponding with host behind the MR, including the
home network. That is, of course, if you want to completely
eliminate triange routing.

This sounds like MIP + a NAT.

Hi, 

During the meeting Phil had asked me to write something up to 
describe the problem with IPsec usage and some suggestions. 
Obviously as we all know (or some of us) Mike Thomas already wrote 
a draft for ESP, also Pekka sent a very long mail on the general 
topic, so I'm not sure if a draft would add more to what we discussed. 

Therefore I thought perhaps getting some concensus on IPsec
usage would be a good idea. 

First let me summarise briefly the two problems we're having:

1. Relying on IKE only as a key exchange mechanism is not 
   acceptable (This was discussed several times and I think we 
   all agree on this assumption)

2. There are some issues to be resolved if IPsec is to be used. 
    Mainly this is related to the recent discussions on IPsec selectors
    and their granularity. 

Before London, we agreed that (2) can be solved in 2 different ways:

   A. Use a new Ext Header value for MIPv6 BUs. This will not 
       involve any modifications to the IPsec implementations.
   
   B. Add some text to the draft to explain that all implementations 
       for MNs and CNs (receiving BUs only) MUST increase the 
       granularity of their IPsec implementations to search for the 
       BU option instead of relying on the nxt Header value only. 

Of course both A and B rely on eliminating piggybacking of the BUs. 

Problem (1) is addressed by several proposals. Needless to say that
1 and 2 are not dependant on each other (or need not be).

So the questions that should be answered IMO are:

1. Do we want to completely disallow the use of IKE ?

2. Do we want to completely disallow the use of IPsec ?

I guess based on the WG concensus this should be reflected
in the draft so we can get on with our implementations.

What do people think ?

My answer to both questions is No. I do believe that there will
be cases where strong authentication will be required. Since 
there are ways of allowing the use of both IKE (as an option)
and IPsec (whether its AH or ESP) then I don't see why we can't
reuse them. 

Regards,
Hesham

YES. use authentication data suboption for the BU.

Correct. We need this for communication between MN and HA.

IKE and 'authentication data suboption' is also strong
authentication IMHO

authentication data suboption = 
	hmac_md5("bu option + home address option",
		  len, key, key_len)

here the key is generated by IKE.

Chapter 3 defines the hashing algorithms used in the computation
of the relevant authentication extensions, not how to encrypt the
key. So, the key material is used to create the key, and the key is
used to create the auth extensions.

Hope this is clearer,

But anyone can compute a correct digest using SHA-1, i.e.,
just using a hash function does not provide any authentication.

You mention that the key is used to create the authentication
extensions, but how the key should be used is not clear; SHA-1
in itself does not use a key. In contrast, HMAC-SHA-1 does
specifiy how to use a key together with SHA-1 to provide
authentication. Therefore, I would expect the Algorithm Identifier
to specify HMAC-SHA-1 ( and possibly SHA-1/prefix+suffix? )
as supported algorithm(s), and not SHA-1.

Right, this is what I would call CoP (care-of prefix).  But I'm still
wondering if there's a need to acquire a CoP and renumber all MNN's
when moving.  Keeping the same MR-subnet prefix wherever MR moves can
be done by updating only binding caches of HA's and CN's and not any
routing tables of anyone.  Keeping the same MR-subnet prefix also
leads to "binding cache-free" MNN's.

Your extrapolation looks right.  With a twist: I would like MR to use
BU like MN/HA/CN use it.  That is update binding caches only and not
routing tables.

The triangular routing would be eliminated by MR's telling CN's an
association of the form (CoA of MR, MR-subnet prefix).  And not by
telling CN's extrapolated associations like (CoP, Home Prefix).

As I see it, MR is not NAT because its subnet prefix is
Internet-routable.  By "triangular routing", but still routable.

Also, when CN has learned the MR CoA, it would send a packet to MNN by
putting MR's CoA and MNN's address into a routing header and off it
goes over the net, through MR and to MNN.  With a NAT you can't reach
nodes behind it whatever you try.

NAT uses a sort of translation table containing many-to-one
connections, but MR uses its routing table only.

I don't know exactly what a "PAN interface" is so let me try to restate
what you are saying.

A PAN is an IP link. There is an IP router between the PAN and the rest
of the network.
Thus the devices on the PAN (other than the router) never connect directly
to any other link - they always go through the router.

If that is what you are saying then, from my IP centric view of the world,
I think that is a very reasonable view of a PAN. In fact it is the view
I'd prefer.

Whoa - what a can of worms. Should we really dive into that one?

NAT has nothing inherently to do with PANs - this argument is no
different than NAT being useful in a home environment.
And NAT assumes that the devices on the PAN are client-only i.e. they
only initiate communication.
I for sure want the model to allow devices on the PAN to be able to
do peer-to-peer communication with other devices elsewhere in the network
i.e. allowing other nodes to connect to the devices in my PAN.

I think the placement of "only" above can be a source of confusion -
IKE is only ("nothing but") a key exchange mechanism as far as I know.

Did you really mean
	Relying on IKE as the only key exchange mechanism used to secure
	Mobile IPv6 is not acceptable ...



> So the questions that should be answered IMO are:

Presumably these questions are solely in the context of
securing MIPv6 or perhaps just securing the BUs, or perhaps just securing
the BUs with CNs?.

I can see folks wanting to use IKE and IPsec to build VPNs to mobile nodes.
Thus I think we need more context in order for folks to agree
what the questions mean.

I hope that what is happening at the edges of the foreign ISP won't be
reflected to BGP.

The CoP (if we now should have one) could be allocated by the MR from
the AR at the foreign ISP. The method used could be the prefix
delegation draft.

If the MR is there, the CoP is being used and should of course be a
routeable prefix. MR and AR would announce it upstream (but probably not
with BGP, but RIP or OSPF).

If MR is not there (or no other MR), the CoP is not being used and the
AR keeps it in its prefix pool. Now, AR still announces it upstream.

In both cases, aggregation is used outside the ISP, so that BGP doesn't
have to know about the CoP - it is rather a subset of the aggregated
address space of the ISP.

But a MR is still a node as well. It could initiate and terminate
traffic just like any other node, if someone it currently using it as a
client/server or whatever. For this, it needs a home address.

	I think we're discussing solutions under different assmptions. 
	I can understand the MR being used to upate the HA with 
	a prefix scoped BU, however I can not imagine how we could generically
	solve the authorisation problem if we consider route optimisation
	being initiated by the MR. So in my mind I always assume 
	that the CN operations are not affected. Ie. BU from the MR to the
	HA (prefix scoped) and e2e route opt. 
	If we want to to delegate route opt to the MR I think we should 
	start by solving the authorisation problem first. The routing problem
	will seem trivial after that IMHO.

No, the RA should always have the R bit set to that other home agents
can discover the global address(es) of the sending HA.
This information is needed for the home agent discovery stuff - each
HA on the home subnet needs to know the IP addresses of the other HAs
since any HA might receive the anycast.

 In your previous mail you wrote:

   During the meeting Phil had asked me to write something up to 
   describe the problem with IPsec usage and some suggestions. 
   Obviously as we all know (or some of us) Mike Thomas already wrote 
   a draft for ESP, also Pekka sent a very long mail on the general 
   topic, so I'm not sure if a draft would add more to what we discussed. 
   
   Therefore I thought perhaps getting some concensus on IPsec
   usage would be a good idea. 
   
   First let me summarise briefly the two problems we're having:
   
   1. Relying on IKE only as a key exchange mechanism is not 
      acceptable (This was discussed several times and I think we 
      all agree on this assumption)
   
   2. There are some issues to be resolved if IPsec is to be used. 
       Mainly this is related to the recent discussions on IPsec selectors
       and their granularity. 
   
=> there are two extra issues:
 - the authentication/authorization problem and the lack of a global PKI
   (not a real IPsec problem)
 - the cost/performance of using IPsec (this seems more a IKE problem
   than a general IPsec problem IMHO but do we agree about that?)

   Before London, we agreed that (2) can be solved in 2 different ways:
   
      A. Use a new Ext Header value for MIPv6 BUs. This will not 
          involve any modifications to the IPsec implementations.
      
=> note this extension header must be final (and of course UDP with
a well known port does the job in 256 time cheaper way :-).

      B. Add some text to the draft to explain that all implementations 
          for MNs and CNs (receiving BUs only) MUST increase the 
          granularity of their IPsec implementations to search for the 
          BU option instead of relying on the nxt Header value only. 
   
=> we should push this idea for ICMPv6 first and when the door will be
open come back...

   Of course both A and B rely on eliminating piggybacking of the BUs. 
   
=> Yeh!

   Problem (1) is addressed by several proposals. Needless to say that
   1 and 2 are not dependant on each other (or need not be).
   
   So the questions that should be answered IMO are:
   
   1. Do we want to completely disallow the use of IKE ?
   
=> no, if we have already a phase 1 it will be stupid to do
something different than a phase 2 to get SAs.

   2. Do we want to completely disallow the use of IPsec ?
   
=> please don't!

   I guess based on the WG concensus this should be reflected
   in the draft so we can get on with our implementations.
   
   What do people think ?
   
=> see above.

   My answer to both questions is No. I do believe that there will
   be cases where strong authentication will be required. Since 
   there are ways of allowing the use of both IKE (as an option)
   and IPsec (whether its AH or ESP) then I don't see why we can't
   reuse them. 
   
=> I agree.

Hi Erik,

Thanx for your reply. I'm trying to wrap my mind around this problem
by looking at the simplest case. The general case seems to
escalate somewhat rapidly in complexity.

>of the network.
>Thus the devices on the PAN (other than the router) never connect directly
>to any other link - they always go through the router.

Right, but what I was trying to say is that there is another interface,
either wireless (like 802.11 or wCDMA) connecting the device to
the wired network. So the device acts either as a multihomed host
or a router, with the PAN/Bluetooth interface on one side and
the WLAN/WAN interface it the Internet on the other. 

The point I think I was trying to make is that the PAN network
is strictly a leaf, i.e.  there is no other router somewhere
routing out of the PAN network into the Internet.

Well, maybe not. :-) But I think we need to look at it just for
the sake of argument. I'm not advocating that it be accepted,
just that we examine the case.

>NAT has nothing inherently to do with PANs - this argument is no
>different than NAT being useful in a home environment.

If the PAN network is a leaf network and the devices are client
only (as you point out below), then maybe it's a possible solution.

>And NAT assumes that the devices on the PAN are client-only i.e. they
>only initiate communication.
>I for sure want the model to allow devices on the PAN to be able to

>

That is a concern.

An advantage of a NAT-like solution (I'm playing devil's advocate here)
is that it allows the devices behind the PAN to keep their CoA while
the multihomed host/mobile router moves. Additonally, the NAT can do route 
optimization with CNs, and traffic from the PAN network is routable directly to 
the CN (i.e. not back through the home network), so no triangle routing. The 
disadvantage, as you point out, is you can't do push without special hacks,
if then.

A simple alternative, if I understood your previous email correctly, is to have 
the PAN addresses globally routable through the home subnet but don't do route 
optimization to the CN. That would require a tunnel back through the 
HA for packets to the PAN because the PAN network prefix wouldn't be in the 
visited subnet routing tables and therefore packets with PAN network prefixes 
may be subject to ingress filtering. Similarly, incoming
packets to the PAN would need to be routed through the home network,
resulting in quadralateral routing. The advantage is that push
would be possible without special hacks. Packets to the WAN/WLAN interface, 
presuming the device is a multihomed host, could still benefit from route 
optimization however.

Are there any other advantages/disadvantages that I am missing?
Perhaps there is another solution? 

It helped me alot in this simple case to think of the mobile device
as a multihomed host instead of a router (actually, I think that
may be more accurate anyway if the device is a cell phone with a Bluetooth
interface) because it allowed me to avoid having to think about the
effects on the routing protocols in the visited network.

You say "keep" so it might mean the Home Address, not the CoA?

NAT would disallow not only traffic from CN to MNN but also from HA to
MNN, right?  Or you see traffic from HA to MNN as being tunnelled
(through MR)?

What if the CN is itself behind an MR-NAT?

Right, there are many names under which this moving devices could be
called and that would put less requirements on its behaviour, than
calling it router.

No, I meant the address on the PAN subnet. I'm assuming here that
the devices on the PAN subnet are not MNs in the MIP sense, or,
at least, that they are not going to move even if they are
MIP capable. It's a very limited case.

Yes, that's right, but the devices don't need to talk to an HA (as above).

Hmmm, difficult. Needs more thought. There is a group working on
the problem of NATs around CNs and HAs, perhaps the solution
will fall out of that.

There is a third solution which came out of your previous email, namely
that the mobile multihomed host/mobile router does route optimization
with the CN but the CN tunnels traffic for the PAN subnet through
the MMH/MR. So the MMH is acting like a (dare I say it?) MIPv4
FA. In this case, you reduce the extent of the legs on
the quadralaterial route, since the tunnel to/from
the mobile subnet is through the MMH, which is probably a lot
closer to the mobile subnet than the HA.

The point is to defeat any ingress filtering on the visited subnet.
If ingress filtering is done on the destination address without
reference to the route headers, then it would have to be a full-fledged
tunnel. If the ingress filter checks the route headers before discarding
the packet, route headers can be used. Is this specified anywhere? I
imagine it is the kind of thing that might be left up to system
administrators as policy, but not sure.

The only question is whether there needs to be any change to the BU.
I don't think an 'R' flag is enough, and, besides, 
draft-ietf-mobileip-ipv6-13.txt reserves that only for HA BUs only. 
One would at least need both the MMH/MR's new CoA and the
subnet prefix of the subnet behind the MR. I suppose we could
define a prefix extension to the BU, which, when present, indicated
that all traffic to that prefix from CN would have to be tunnelled through
the MMH/MR's CoA.

The other question is, of course, security, but I don't see any
difference between this case and the case of a mobile host (again,
which is why calling it a MMH seems more to the point than
calling it a MR). The MMH is controls all the traffic going to
the leaf subnet.

Gee, I thought _you_ had this in mind when writing previous messages.

Also, tunnelling could mean tunnelling, or routing heading?

Well, yes, there are similarities between MMH/MR and FA's, except they
move.  More generally, Thierry and HMIPv6 authors see a similarity
between MMH and MAP extended mode.

When thinking about MMH we can take additional requirements that stem
from the elimination of FA and the arguments against MAP.

Thanks for your useful insights,

Alex

[NAT: in my understanding, an address behind a NAT is not routable on
 the Internet and it's reserved as such.  An address behind an MR
 should be routable at least between CN and HA.  Maybe in our context
 the MR should use a sort of address translation (could be
 tunnelling), maybe should not call it NAT]

Hi Alex,

>telling CN's extrapolated associations like (CoP, Home Prefix).
>

I can't see how triangle routing to hosts behind the MR can
be eliminated unless their addresses are routable within the
visited subnet. Otherwise, the visited subnet will reject 
incoming packets because the destination address is not
topologically meaningful.

I suppose traffic to/from the CN from hosts on the mobile subnet could tunnel 
through the MR's CoA. That would avoid the CN having to send packets back 
through the home subnet, and vice versa, essentially quadrelateral
routing, which is what I mentioned in my response to Erik's message.

Was that what you were thinking of?

OK, it does seem to be what you are thinking of! Yes, I agree that
a tunnel from CN through MR would allow route optimization and
thus eliminate quadrilaterial routing. A NAT would avoid the
tunnel, but I think a tunnel is a small price to pay in this case.

It sounds to me like we may be converging on an acceptable solution
for this very specific, limited problem of MR (which I think
is more like a mobile multihomed host).

MNN-away-from-home sends packet to CN through MR.  MR decides it
should send a BU to CN and it sends a BW (B Warning) providing its
MR-CoA, the MR-subnet prefix, the MR Home Address and the MNN home
address (must fit into MR-subnet prefix).  The CN then sends a sort of
request to MNN home address that gets to the true HA and that says
"yes, MNN home address is under the MR; yes, MR-subnet prefix is his".
At that moment only CN updates its cache.

You are right, thank you for pointing out that possible attack. Section
5 will be updated soon to provide a security context that will no longer
be dependent on HA certification.
Note however that the authorization problem you raised here does not
necessarily lead to "sending packets to all IP addresses in the prefix
and seeing that you get a response back from the HA".
We are currently checking two other solutions that should be fittable to
solve the problem without extra messaging.

It's use in the binding cache is solely to be able to set the R bit
in the Neighbor Advertisements to non-zero, which is only needed
when the MN is a MR.

The modifications to the RA (section 6.2) has a unrelated  'R' bit
which has nothing to do with the 'R' bit in the BU.
The former is just a way to indicate that the prefix info option,
often in addition to containing a prefix, also contains a full
(global or site-local) address of the sending router.

I was thinking that HA should respond to RS's with R bit set if the MN
is away and is a router.  That RA's R bit would come from R of binding
cache.  It's not specified, but I thought that should be specified.

Yes, I was talking about a different R bit.

Fact is that there are 4 R bits: in BU, in proxy NA, in modified RA
and in binding cache.  The R's in BU and binding cache are related to
R in proxy NA and to R in RA.  While the R in proxy NA comes only from
the R in binding cache, the R in RA can come from other places.

Thus I think the R bits in BU and binding cache could be removed.

I was tempted to suggest removal of R from modified RA but that is
also used for building home agent lists and something else.

Also, I'm wondering if it's good to suggest "removal" or it's better
to copy paste it into a new draft and polish that draft.

Yes but running routing protocols is not required by all routers.
And I agree that HA and AR are likely to be different - in some cases
they might be placed in very different parts of the network.

Good questions.

Perhaps it should for consistency.
Joining all-routers would definitely be required if the router was to
send router advertisements which brings us to:

> Why isn't Mobile IPv6 spec requiring the HA to send router
> advertisements? [*]

I don't think this needs to be mandatory for routers in general.
For instance, for routers which are only attached to links with other routers
(and not hosts) there is no use in sending RAs.
Also, RFC 2461 was written to allow there be routers on the link
which do not send RAs but instead are only used by the hosts as a result
of another router sending redirects.

If a HA is only connected to one "physical" link (in addition to whatever 
tunnels it has to the served MNs) then its routing cabability
will not be very useful for other hosts attched to the physical link.
Thus it might not be that useful for it to send RAs on that link.

But when the HA is attached to multiple physical links it can very
well serve as a "normal" router between those links in addition to
its home agent functionality. Thus in such a case it makes more sense
for it to send RAs.

Correct.

But the router can still "hide" i.e. not be used as a default router
by setting the router lifetime to zero. Thus the above logic for
when it makes sense to be a default router or not still applies.

Although a beautiful way, I'm afraid such a renumbering is going to be
something really heavy. Some ISPs are really reluctant to renumbering,
and here we happy Mobile IPv6-people come and suggest mandatory
renumbering every 20 second or so... :)

Exactly. Altering the routing tables of the CN is not enough. You would
need to use MR prefix-routes in every intermediate router between the CN
and MR in order to deliver the packets.

Or do you suggest some tunnelling/routing header mechanism?

No. As long as other solutions of key exchange are retained, we do not
need to discard this one.

No. IMHO we should work to make MIPv6 & IPsec work together (solutions A
or B you mentioned). I think that a decision to disallow the use of
IPsec would eventually be regretted in a next future. If we envision a
world with fully deployed MIPv6 along with IPsec-based VPNs no doubt
that a single security standard will be more than desirable.

So you prefer this Mobile IPv6 can of worms instead? I wouldn't say we
are completely clean here either... :)

We are a bit more end-to-end, but NAT has obviously been more deployed
than Mobile IP and seems to be of some use at least.

Sorry for being ironical (or cynical). I don't support NAT, but it could
solve a few things here:
 - No complex trust model, the mobile network will look like a single
MN.
 - No additional support in CNs.
 - No routing problems at home with other routers.
 - As the mobile network is maybe very small, it will require little
configuration.
 - If the user wants e2e, he could use the MR.

Now, if mobile-ip was moderated, I would have been kicked off this list
by now. ;) Should have use my hotmail account...

NAT is just a quick short-term solution. But a PAN such as you describe
it does have a number of similarities with home environments.

There are ugly tricks for this too.

The HA can very well be separated from the AR (or the gateway router or
border router whatever it means). Each link can have any number of
routers. One or more of them connects it to the internet. The HA doesn't
have to be one of them. A node can have one interface and still be a
router.

An important aspect of routers is that they can't get their routes by ND
autoconfiguration, such as hosts do. They need manual configuration or
routing protocols for that. And as concluded earlier, the HA is a
router.

Sorry, just want to make things clear.

	=> Right, so what I meant to say was that :
	Should we disallow IKE from being "optionally" used ?
	Should we disallow the use of IPsec at all ? 

	An answer of No to the second question would imply that 
	IPsec will be THE mechanism used for authenticating BUs
	with any other key exchange mechanism (IKE, BAKE, HA cookies .....etc)

	Please note that there is no distinction between the HA and CN BUs
	above. For example you can still use IKE with another CN
	(if you can establish an SA). It could be a CN that you already 
	know would require strong authentication (eg. a server at your corporate
	or at your home network).

	The point is, it's not clear to me what it does in the BU. 
	So putting it in another draft is ok once we know what 
	to do with it. I assume the "other" drat would be addressing 
	a solution for Mobile networks so we can decide whether
	the R flag is appropriate or something else. 

	Having it in the MIPv6 draft at the moment seems superfluous.

   Since this requires a new DOI for IKE, your

Oops I'm late to reply your message -_-

However, could you explain about your statement "a fact that the current IS835 deployment in Korea
does not support Moblie IP"? Why do you think so?

As far as I know, the Mobile IP in SKT/KTF is just working. They only are lack of Mobile Node software.

Ok, renumbering should not happen very often.  Regarding the ISP, the
renumbering I was thinking of happens in the MMH-subnet only, so
invisible to access network.

This is to say renumbering could be an alternative for small
MMH-subnets.

Good point. I expect that everybody assumes that the mobile network
is a leaf - it might be a multihomed leaf in some cases (with multiple
routers towards the rest of the Internet) but it makes no sense for the
mobile network to be a transit for other packets.

I think the design space is quite large.
One case is when the MNNs are statitionary with respect to the MR
and don't observe that the MR is moving. In those cases I suspect
that there are limits to the amount of route optimization possible
since, depending on the actual model for securing BUs, it might be hard
or impossible for a 3rd party like the MR to send BUs for its MNNs.

But if the MNNs are made aware that the MR is moving then they can use
the regular BU mechanism for route optimization.
This would more complex than MIPv6 today. For example, such MNNs would need
3 different addresses as  far as I can tell:
 - Home Address
 - Long-term stable CoA associated with the MR's home prefix
   This only changes when the MNN moves between MRs.
   Traffic sent to this address will go through the MR's home agent.
 - Temporary CoA associated with the MR's CoA prefix (which the MR acquires as
   it moves).

Depending on movement rate and traffic patterns the MNN can then choose
which correspondents to update with the temporary CoA, the stable CoA,
or not update at all.

IMHO the current 3G model for devices connected through a cell phone
are quite limited - makes the cell phone into some form
of PPP relay.
A router is the IETF model for devices that connect between dissimilar L2
technologies (and also in many cases between the same L2 technologies).

So let's not get distracted my the limits of what folks might be currently
building while trying to understand the size and shape of the design space.

I agree.

BTW, what does the MMH abbreviation mean? I seem to have missed that.

It's not impossible.

This is getting into discussing the pro's and con's of NATs which is,
as far as I know, not the subject of trhe mobile-ip mailing list.
Thus I expect the chairs to cut this discussion short :-)

IMHO I think there is a very big difference between the transparency
(see RFC 2775) provided by IP end-to-end and the attempt at NAT boxes
to provide support for some set or some classes of applications.

What aspect of Mobile-IP is not end-to-end transparent IP?

Yes, leaf, no need for mobile network to transit other packets.
However, the "mobile network" should not mean only "PAN" but also
"LAN": the aircraft case, more than 3-4 hosts behind MMH, probably
with a simple router linking the cockpit with first class passengers
(one prefix) and second class passengers (another prefix, same length
as first, longer than cockpit's).

Yes, this case is the most probable, should be treated first.

I think James coined it as Mobile Multihomed Host.  Could have been
MMHH Mobile Multi-Homed Host.

I shouldn't have brought this issue up, of course.

The route optimized Mobile IPv6 is a good thing. It is e2e, the
end-nodes are fully aware of what is happening. There are no nodes in
between that have essential functionality (except when a HA is initially
needed as a consequence of CN-initiated traffic).

Mobile IPv6 without route optimization is hiding to the CN that there is
a HA in between. The HA is doing proxy ND and proxy DAD for the MN. We
play make-believe that the MN is always at home. We do it for global and
site-local addresses, but not for link-local.

Mobile IPv6 is a pretty good protocol, but I think it suffers from that
we want to emulate that the MN is a fixed node. My recommendation: hide
movement less. Let end-nodes be aware of mobility.

Anyway, there are different proposals for things in this direction. I
should stop boring you [the WG] with these insults.

Of course. :-)

You seem to argue that a different approach to mobility can be made
better than mobile IP as currently defined. (I may or may not agree with
that - it is not important for this point.)

This is very different than in the mail I replied to where
you seemed to say that Mobile IP was similar to NAT in some respects.

As far as I can tell, mobile IP is transparent to IP packets
but you seem to be claiming otherwise?

A 3rd party like MR _could_ verifiably send BUs for its MNN's, as a
prefix: the CN could ensure the prefix belongs to MR by verifying
special requirements on the HA address, the MR home address and the
MNN home address.

Provided that you require MNN's to send BU's only for CN's for route
optimization, and not to HA, this can still fit the original
motivation behind MR: send only one BU for the whole prefix (to HA
only in this case).

Interesting, this should be checked.

These features would probably fall under a stronger requirement than
the initial.  Here the MNN's can detach and reattach somewhere else.
It's even stronger than your previous paragraph in which MNN's were
only aware of mobility of the subnet.

I have not seen a draft specify how this can be done securely.
Do you have a pointer to a draft?

Sure, as I've said in other emails, the authorization issues for
the MR to HA communication can be solved - this is essentially a pre-configured
relationship in any case.

The triangular routed case below has a box in the middle that is
invisible to the CN (like a NAT). The packets pass though unmodified (HA
is not that evil), but some packets are not forwarded (link-local).

I was not referring a specific draft.  I just wanted to say that if we
put strong aggregation requirements on the HA address, the MR home
address and the MNN address, I think the legitimate prefix can be
deduced at the CN.  Part of this has been mentionned previously in the
thread.

Of course there are limits to this.  For example, if I impose that the
HA address and the MR home address differ on the first bit following
that legitimate subnet prefix-1 then stateless autoconfiguration would
fall appart.

Alex and I had an email exchange last week where I think we worked
out how it would be possible to do it. The MR exchanges a BU
with the CNs. The BU contains the MR's CoA and a prefix for the 
subnet that the MR is routing. The CNs set up a tunnel to the MR
in which they send packets routed to the MNNs behind the MR. Similarly,
the MR needs to set up a tunnel to the CNs for outgoing packets, because
the mobile network prefix will not be in the routing tables of the
wired network.

There is still triangle (actually quadralateral) routing but
the advantage over doing the routing through the HA is that the leg
from the CNs to the MR goes more or less through the "natural"
path it would take if there were no tunnel. If all traffic
is tunnelled through the HA, the off leg is much longer.

The security properties in this case seem, on first glance, to
be similar to regular MIP. The only issue is whether the MR
is allowed to route the prefix it claims it is allowed to
route. Even though the CN can authenticate the BU and CoA, it
does not necessarily mean that the node claiming to be a MR
is allowed to route the prefix. Perhaps something could be
set up through the HA when the CN first makes contact
with the MNN so that the HA could inform the CN that the MR
is allowed to route that prefix (or not, as the case may be).

Is there any thing missing in this solution?

It seems somewhat impractical to require that nodes behind a
mobile router be mobile aware. What if I buy a laser printer for
my cruise ship network? Or bring one along on a cruise? It probably isn't mobile 
aware. 

I agree that there are cases where the MNNs will be mobile aware, in
particular, when they are capable of being stand-alone MNs in the standard
MIP sense. In those cases, your scheme of three addresses might
work, though it seems somewhat complex to me. And it would require
additional mechanism over and above standard MIP.

In the case where a standard MIP capable MN attaches to a mobile
network, it would  seem simpler if the MR acted as a standard AR
in the MIP sense. The MN would get a CoA using either stateful
or stateless address autoconfig, reporting it to its HA. The
CoA is on the mobile network, and the MR uses the procedure outlined
above to route optimize (or a NAT, yuk!), or perhaps it doesn't route optimize
and routes everything through the HA. The only change needed would be some way 
for the MR to tell the MN to supress sending BUs, since the MR will be taking 
care of that.

While I certainly agree that the 3G model is limited, I think much
of the emphasis to come up with a solution to the MR problem is
driven by that model. My feeling is that if we can come up with
a solution that solves the short term problem based on some simple
extensions of MIP, perhaps we can then move to a more comprehensive solution for 
mobile routers that has wider applicability. If we try to solve
the long term problem by casting everything into the MIP framework,
I'm  afraid we may be ruling out solutions that would handle complex
cases far more easily and may also provide better solutions to
the simple cases (in the long run). Contrawise, if we ignore the short
term solution, we may end up with people doing suboptimal or
architecturally questionable things (like NATs?).

I know this has been mentioned and hand-waved around before.
However, I've seen nothing of substance on how this is doable in a secure
fashion under reasonable trust models.

Are you assuming that any CN would (for instance) accept a BU for a /64 prefix
from anybody? How can the CN verify the authority for such a BU?

And how do you propose solve the authorization issue for the BU?

To the WG:

I'm seriously starting to feel like a broken record - do people still feel
like security can be added as an afterthought?
Unless security (authentication and authorization) is thought of up front
I don't see how the WG can make progress.

But you might not need to optimize for random CN's accessing your printer :-)

Seriously, there might be some relationship between devices being globally
accessible and wanting to be MNs in their own right, which might feed
into thinking about where optimizations make sense.

It isn't clear to me that it requires additional e2e protocols.
It would definitely require different behavior on such an MNN.
(But I'm thing about the requirements space more than the solution space
at the moment.)

Please, Erik, I understand! :-) I'm just trying to explore the solution
space. If we find a solution that looks like it won't work due
to security, then let's discard it. It is not clear to me
that this one won't work at this point.

Basically, if I understand correctly, most solutions for the MIPv6 BU security
problem are not proposing that the CN and MN obtain an authentication
that the MN is who it says it is but just that the MN is the same one the CN was 
talking to before, and thus that that the MN is allowed to tell the
CN via a BU to change the routing. In order to have the CN authenticate that
the MN is who it says it is, there would need to be some out of
band exchange of secure information that the CN could later fall back
on to authenticate the MN, correct? And this is clearly too onerous
for a random CN/MN exchange.

I think trying to prevent the HA and MR from fooling a random CN
falls into the same category as requiring the CN to  authenticate
that the MN is who it says it is. This would require an out of
band exchange of secure information. Now, there may be good reasons
why this requrement should be imposed on MR/CN route optimization
and not on MH/CN route optimization, but if so, I think we need
to spell them out.

A similar requirement to MH/CN route optimization might go as follows.
Since the subnet prefix that the MR sends in the BU must be on the home subnet 
of the MR, one can require that the HA route a subnet that includes, under it, 
the subnet routed by the MR. Since the HR controls the routes to that prefix, it 
should be able to tell the CN whether the MN is authorized to provide routing 
updates.  The CN can verify that the MR is the same one that it talked to before 
by the solution for MIP host BU security. The additional requirement is some
sort of security exchange initially between the CN and HA that
allows the HA to inform the CN that the MH home address is for a MR and
that the MR is allowed to change routing for the subnet.

The issue I see is whether there needs to be something "extra" in
MNNs on mobile subnets. The "extra" is in addition to a static
IPv6 node or a MIPv6 node. Anything "extra" complicates implementations
and is a barrier to deployment and usability. So if there does
need to be something "extra". IMHO it had better be really necessary,
and it might be an argument for waiting and coming up with
a comprehensive solution to the MR problem. So it would seem that
a solution which doesn't require something "extra" would be preferable,
though maybe not achievable after detailed examination.

Hi all,

I am one of the contributors to the Mobile IP implementation on Linux,
along with the Main developers -  the HUT Team. While examining
the working of Proxy DAD, I would like to propose an improvement
in this functionality, which is not addressed in the draft.

Section 9.2 of the draft says that when the MN requests the HA to no
longer serve as it's HA (returns home) :

"In addition, the home agent MUST stop intercepting packets on the
mobile node's home link addressed to the mobile node (Section 9.3)."...

I feel this step should also apply for the HA when the binding cache
entry expires.

My reasoning behind this is :

1. The HA does not need to listen to expired entry's solicited multicast
   addresses after it's expiry. This way the list of multicast addresses
   doesn't become too large to manage on the HA. Basically if the HA is
   up for days/months/years and 100's (or more, futuristically) of MN's
   have moved from the Home Agent network during that time (and not
   returned to the HA but have shutdown or stopped using mobility), then
   the list of addresses in the multicast list can become very large.
   Searching, operating, adding or deleting an entry in this big list can
   take increasing times, as the uptime of the HA increases, leading to
   a performance hit.

2. If the MN goes to a foreign network and is shutdown or stops using the
   mobile service, the HA would still listen to all the MC addresses of
   each of these MN's home addresses. Then the HA would process the
   neighbor solicitation, and go through the binding cache as the spec
   says to see if a binding exists, and finds nothing.

   Basically we are doing a lot of processing when it is not necessary. The
   HA is not even serving as the HA for this MN if the entry has expired
   and there is no good reason to keep listening to the MC address.

3. From an implementation point (please bear with me!), another problem
   happens if the implementation of mobility is by using a loadable module.
   If the mobility module were to be 'unloaded' on the HA after the HA
   served many MN's (which moved to foreign networks and 'expired'), then
   potentially the HA would be listening to many multicast solicited
   addresses.

   So removing mobility support on the HA would not restore this system to
   it's ORIGINAL state before the module was loaded.

I would like to suggest that the draft be modified to say that when an
entry in the binding cache expires, the home agent MUST stop
intercepting packets on the mobile node's home link addressed to
the mobile node.

I would appreciate any comments on this issue.

Thanks,

- KK

What I'm having in mind is very simple and probably too dumb to be considered
as a "prefix authorization solution".

Basically, the CN can send packets to MR's Home Address and to MNN's
Home Address.  Those can only be routed to the right addresses.  If those
two addresses are required (imposed) to be: matching the first 64 bits
and differring at the 65th then the CN can conclude that the maximum
prefix it can trust for this MR is the respective /65.

It's probably useful to go back to first
principles here. That is, who in the triangular
path between MN, HA and CN actually knows whether
MN should be allowed to assert the prefix it is
trying to bind (assuming no global prefix PKI, of
course)? One thing is for certain, it's not
necessarily the HA. In fact, I'm going to guess
that it's probably at the edge of the CN's BGP AS
that you really have concrete knowledge. Ie does
the HA's AS advertise this (summarized) prefix or
not?

Indeed, it's not entirely clear that the CN is
really the one that should be the target of the
BU.

Hmm, good point.

I guess what I'd question is why the CN's border router 
is any more authoritative than the HA.

Here's what I think might be an answer. BGP updates are
authenticated, so the CN's border router can trust
the routing table updates it receives from the HA's 
AS. And the CN can trust its own border router, so
a transitive chain of trust, is established between
the HA's AS and the CN's AS. Is that enough?

The only issue is that if the BGP routes are aggregated,
the MR's prefix won't show up in the CN AS routing
tables, though some superprefix will. If as per my
followup message to Erik, one constrains the MR subnet
prefix to be a subprefix of the HA 's prefix, and the HA prefix
to be a subprefix of a prefix in the BGP routing tables,
then would that be enough to let the CN validate?

The only issue I can think of is that the HA might send
out a message with a bogus return address that had
the prefix for another subnet in order to spoof the
CN. But, similarly, the MR could send out a bogus
prefix in the BU. In either case, the bogus prefix
would be a prefix that was routable via the BGP routing
tables for CN's AS, but neither HA nor MR would be
authorized to route it. 

I think this problem would similarly hold if the BU
was sent to the BGP border router, unless the BU
has the same level of authentication as the BGP
route updates.

Basically, I don't see any way around requiring some
out-of-band exchange of security material if we want
to verify that the MR and HA are allowed to route
a particular prefix.

Hello folks,

Following the request of the Mobile IP working group chairs,
which I believe is in accordance with the wishes of the IESG
area directors, I have submitted a new Internet Draft for
RFC2002bis for distribution to the usual IETF directories.

This draft mandates HMAC_MD5 as the authentication algorithm
which must be part of every Mobile IPv4 implementation which
intends to be compliant with the new specfication.  I am acting
purely as document editor in this matter.

The new specification has been made available at the following URL:
	http://people.nokia.net/charliep/txt/mobileip/mobiliep.txt

Regards,
Charlie P.

Will change to HMAC-SHA-1, instead of SHA-1.

Hello folks,

Following the recent discussion, I believe a new revision to the
existing Mobile IPv6 draft ...-14 is needed.  The new draft would
have the following features:

- Removal of all text related to Mobile Routers, including the
  'R' bit of the Binding Update

- Reorganizing the Binding Update format so that:
  = authentication data is able to be included as a suboption
  = Specify that the Binding Update needs a new header number
  = Specify that the Binding Update must follow AH whenever
    AH is present.
  This will allow use of AH in the future, but allow the use
  of other authentication algorithms which can be specified
  directly to depend on specialized key exchange protocols
  as has been discussed recently.

- other minor fixes that have been reported.

I believe these fixes conform to recent consensus, do not
represent a significant upheaval to existing implementations,
and may help to make future discussion more productive.

Comments?

Regards,
Charlie P.

Hi Charlie,
  What about security?
I suggest waiting a bit until this is resolved and then issue a
super-duper final version to go for other steps
rather than keep increasing the version numbers 13, 14, 15, etc.

How about an example where this breaks.
At home I have a small subnet from my ISP (a /48 with IPv6).
The ISP advertises a large chunk (because it is a large ISP)
so it might be a /19 that is visible in BGP.

I then have a /64 for e.g. my PAN carved out from from my /64.

Then it seems like, even given the BGP information, a CN could pontentially
think my MR has authority to express binding for the whole /19 that the ISP
advertises in BGP.


So I frankly can't see how you can use this approach unless you remove
the route aggregation used in the Internet.
What am I missing?

  Erik

OK, good point. The only thing one can tell from the BGP tables is
that the ISP is allowed to route the /19. It's not possible to
tell whether the MR is allowed to route the whole thing or
just a subset, so it could lie and hijack the whole thing.

So, basically, I'll fall back on my assertion that there is no way
for the CN to authenticate that a MR or HA are allowed to route
a particular prefix without some out of band authentication mechanism.

This seems to be erring in allowing updates for too short prefixes
in certain cases.

So if the MR and MNN are from different parts of the space (the train model
as opposed to the PAN model) then MR's home address could be
1234:5:6:7:<something>
and the MNN is 
8999:5:6:7:<something else>
then the addresses differ in the first bit.
Hence by the above rules the MR should be able to send a BU for /0!

What did I get wrong?

I don't know what to put in the draft about IKE.  I understand we're
not supposed to be messing with IKE, and I am pretty sure it's too
much work to mandate for all correspondent nodes.

The home address option does not have to be authenticated.
I reckon that the Binding Acknowledgement would need to have
a new header number also -- or else if there is a need to conserve
those numbers it could have the same header number as the
Binding Update.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Folks, 

After some discussion with the chairs I'm writing this mail to
ask whether anyone has any objection to allowing this draft to
be resubmitted as a WG item:
http://standards.ericsson.net/hesham//draft-soliman-mobileip-flow-move-00.txt

The draft was not presented in London, however the draft was originally 
part of HMIPv6 (load balancing) but was removed to reduce the scope
of HMIPv6. This was based on feedback from the WG in Minneapolis. 

Abstract

   The aim of this draft is to introduce a new extension to MIPv6 to
   allow hosts to direct inbound flows individually to certain preferred
   interfaces. This extension to MIPv6 allows hosts to take full
   advantage of the diverse access technologies that they may be
   connected to and direct their traffic according to internal policies
   specified by the users or applications.


Some of the comments that were received before London and 
will be added to the new revision:

- Split the flow movement suboption to 2: One relying on the flow 
  label and another using port numbers. This will save a significant
  amount of BW over the air. 

- Add a new section to describe the modifications to the Binding 
  Cache's Conceptual data structure.

Any objections ?

Regs,
Hesham

	This is the hypothetical scenario: 
	The BU carries its own authentication data. In this case the Home

	in the same "new" ext header. Provided that there was nothing else

Hi folks,

Just to throw some more fuel on the fire, I question the value of allowing
an MR to bind anything other than /128 with a CN.

As an alternative, let's say the MR, when it detects that an MNN is
communicating with some CN, sends a BU just for that MNN's address to the
CN.  In effect, it sends a normal BU on behalf of the MNN, but using the
MR's COA.  The obvious downside is that when multiple MNNs are communicating
with the same CN, more BUs will be sent.  (One BU per MNN, per CN, rather
than just one per CN).   The two upsides are that CN binding cache lookup
remains simple (exact address match), and that BU authentication isn't any
harder than it is in the non-router case (MR must have whatever credentials
needed to bind each MNN's address, just as it would for its own address).

The MR would still bind prefixes with its home agent, which is much easier,
assuming we expect the HA to have been preconfigured with the prefixes to
expect from each MR.  This is the expectation, as I've gathered from
discussion on this list.

-John

While I am willing to agree with the probable result of your
statement, I don't agree with the statement itself.

It _does_ make sense for a mobile network to be a transit
network.

On the other hand, we don't have to solve that problem in
this working group.

Charlie P.

A few comments mainly from an implementation point of view:

In draft-13, the MIPv6 protocol data was put into up to *2* Destination Option
Headers. These headers had to be placed correctly in between the other
ext-headers (before/after AH). Another (not yet defined) dest-opt header could be
in the packet. That wasn't very clean.

I should like to see new header extension types defined in the same breathing as
the requirement on ordering of all the extension headers.
That said, if possible, I favour putting *all* MIPv6 data (incl. Home Address
Option) into *one* new extension header type.

Just a note that it would not be impossible to build UDP based protocols in
kernel. But why does the Mobile IP signaling _need_ to be in the kernel in
the first place?

This is not true at all. There is always the case when there is no IPsec SA
required for the payload itself and there would be absolutely no harm done
by piggybacking. Only when the payload and the BU need different SAs could
piggybacking not be done.

This is very important point, IMO, since NAT in the mobile router will most
likely be the implementation effort benchmark considered by vendors
implementing mobile routers for PANs. And for IPv4 probably the only
implementation choice available.

Just keep this in mind when considering the candidate solutions,

Could you, please, give an example of it?  I can only imagine that the
moving subnet has other sub-subnets under it and it would transit
packets to those sub-subnets.  Those would still be leafs.

Yes, is there another better adapted place where one could discuss
about this?

Let me give it a try, thanks for reading it.

MNN-away from home sends packet to CN; MR-away-from-home intercepts
and sends BU to CN containing that MNN's home address, MR's home
address and probably others.  Upon receipt of BU, CN sends request
packets to MR's home address and MNN's home address that are
intercepted by HA.  HA replies to CN ok.

The requirement is to have MR's home address and MNN's home address
match their first /64 bits and differ on later bits.  The position of
first differing bit (say the 65th bit) gives the length of prefix that
MR can claim.  The MR can claim /65.

In other words, when receiving a prefix BU, a CN should accept it only
if (1) it has answers from HA for MNN's home address and for MR's home
address and (2) if MNN's home address and MR's home address respect
the above requirement.

I hope it's not too naïve,

Alex

Yes, that is correct.  Numero uno: this boils down to decide if we put
a requirement on a moving network to accept or not the visits of other
moving networks or of other mobile nodes.  Let's decide.

Numero due: similarly to the requirement on MR's home address and
MNN's home address, another can be put between MR's HA address, MR's
Home Address and MNN's home address.  This could solve the case you
mention above.

Note that in the example you give above, I presume that PAN visits
train.  In that case, CN will probe different HA's (train MR's and PAN
MR's), thus my tests would work.

I need to know, if we talk only PAN case, is it possible to impose
such a restriction (MR's home address and MNN's home address fit on
claimed prefix -1)?

How about a consistency requirement for HA to join all-routers mc
address, in some cases?  The cases where it is required to send RA's.

Thanks,

The scenario is: 

- Need to send a BU to a CN
 - If there is an outgoing packet to the CN in a queue, and 
  - the packet is not associated with any SA
  - then can piggyback the BU with the packet in the queue
 - else send BU as a separate packet

If the spec allowed for this, would it be broken in some way?

Sure this is a performance optimization only, and the degree of the benefit
depends heavily on the type of L2's in both ends, feature interaction with
HC, etc., but if done right there is nothing that would make the standard
"only work sometimes". It is quite customary that standards have options
that are not always used.

Additionally, you would not need to implement this, if you don't want. The
recipient would need to be able to process piggybacked BUs, but for that
no-one needs to do *anything*, if there is a e.g. a separate next header
value for the BU etc. Not a single line of code required.

If Mobile IP signaling stays in the network layer headers, the standard
actually does not need to state anything about piggybacking. It would _just
work_, if implemented? That is, unless the spec. actually mandates NO
transport layer stuff after the Mobile IP header.

So it seems that it would suffice for the spec to state if transport level
stuff is allowed after the Mobile IP header(s) or not.

Me too I see it this way.

As I said earlier, I'm wondering it's feasible to put a requirement
that "the subnet prefix that the MR sends in the BU must be on the
home subnet of the MR".

As a counterexample against this requirement, there's a case when I
take two ISP's, one gives me a prefix, the other gives me another
prefix.  I keep one prefix for my home and the other for my PAN.  But
this is also something like being at home at linking the two ISP's
together, not very nice.

But what will happen if at a later time it becomes necessary to have 
a SA also for the payload? IPSec will detect, that there is already 
one (with no idea, that it has been established for Mobile IP BUs), 
which probably will not match the security policy for the payload. So 
should the Mobile IP SA be overridden? How do you inform Mobile IP 
about that? 

You won't have such problems without piggybacking.

There is an idea I suggested a few weeks ago... We may want to solve
that issue creating new algorithm numbers for IPsec, let's say MIP-SHA1
and MIP-MD5. Those algorithms would be considered as "very week" by
IPsec policy management entity, so when a security association is to be
established with a peer from which a BU has already been received, the
SA parameters will be renegociated.

This "delta" thing between addresses will probably allow an attacker
to falsely claim a whole prefix when all he has is in fact some
addresses of that prefix.

This however leads to the question: "could a provider assign a prefix
(except 2 addresses) to somebody and the 2 addresses to somebody
else?"

The decision whether to piggyback or to send a separate packet must be done
separately for each signaling message sent by mobile IP, so I do not
understand what you mean with "at a later time".

What the actual implementation solution for resolving the possible race
condition between two SPD entries (one for Mobile IP, other for the payload)
is not important (for this discussion), and does not need to be
standardized. It suffices to state that (for example):

"Mobile IP header (TBD) may be followed by transport headers only if the
transport protocol message can be sent with the Security Association used
for protecting Mobile IP itself."

If you do not want to find a solution how to do this, never piggyback. It is
a tradeoff with possible complexity of checking the SPD in the right places,
and getting the efficiency of piggybacking. But this tradeoff should have no
interoperability consequences, so there is no need for standardizing
anything new for this.

> You won't have such problems without piggybacking.

Again, this issue can be left to the implementers of to decide. No-one is
forced to piggyback. Reception of piggybacked transport PDU should happen
with current standards.

Or am I still missing something? What adverse effects you see with
piggybacking, with the assumption that the originating host knows when it
can/not piggyback?

I don't think it matters what we decide on that one.

The key thing is that we need rules that the CN can use to do 
authorization checks.
Those rules better not be circumventable by having any subset
of HA, MR, and MNN conspire to fool the CN.

Or stated differently, given that the CN doesn't trust anything
but the ability of the routing system to deliver packets, on a best
effort basis, to the destination IP address, how can the CN develop any
trust in a remote entity stating that it should receive packets for
a whole prefix?

I don't see how techniques like SUCV can help here - they inherently bind
a key to a single IP address and I don't even think it is meaningful to
bind a key to a prefix.

The CN would still need to trust untrustworthy entities.

[Using IPv4 prefixes since they are shorter than IPv6 - and net 10
to avoid pointing any assigned IP address space.]

A provider might assign
	10.1.0.0/16 to user A
	10.2.0.0/16 to user B
	10.3.0.0/16 to user A

This creates "holes" thus in your proposal this can be used by A to claim
the space assigned to B.

It does seem that Jarno's scheme allows
piggybacking where "security allows it".
Nice idea.

Then I would also like to comment on Hesham's
original questions, do you want to completely
disallow IPsec and IKE, or do you want to
use them in some situations. Personally, I
think there are situations where we'd like
to use IPsec/IKE, and to have them protect
also the Mobile IP signalling. Of course you
have to be able to use also the PKI-less, weak
authentication in the global Internet.

Finally, I would also like to note that the solution space
for BU protection is more fine grained than "Use
IPsec for everything" and "Don't Use IPsec At All":

- Application specific protection, i.e. the use of the
  mechanism defined in the -14 version of the v6 draft.

- Existing IPsec AH with a new next header value for BUs.
  In this alternative we can use the current versions
  of IPsec AH and IP Security Architecture since BUs
  are not piggybacked to other packets. It may be possible
  to use this with Jarno's idea, allowing piggybacking
  if security isn't needed.

- IPsec AH with policy extensions. Certain extensions to
  the current requirements for security policy data bases 
  and SA selectors are needed in order to protect BUs that
  are embedded in the Destinations Options header of packets
  possibly containing also other payloads.

- Application specific protection with optional, additional
  IPsec protection. For instance, we use the -14 mechanism
  and the weak authentication  in  all  situations,  but
  apply additional also IPsec and IKE where a suitable PKI
  exists, such as in corporations. This application may
  affect simply just all packets, in which case the policy
  granularity issues are not a concern. Standard IPsec
  applies here also in this case.

Frankly, I'm not quite sure which of these alternatives
I would prefer. I kind of like the second alternative,
though the first isn't bad either. Fourth would also
be a good option, and I'm not sure people have discussed
it yet much. I don't particularly like the third option.

In all of these options, we should better document exactly
how we can do the things we want, and what the limitations
are. For instance, in the first alternative we should make
crystal clear to everyone that we won't be doing strong
authentication ever, unless the weak authentication protocols
are extended to support also strong authentication [which
would be a bad idea in my opinion]. In the fourth alternative
we need a clear section in the spec that tells people an
additional layer of security can be run in certain situations,
and exactly how.

I guess your suggestion is to add further clarification in section 9.2
detailing the behavior when the lifetime of a binding expires. If the
lifetime of the binding for an MN expires, does the HA send out a
"gratuitous" Neighbor Advertisement message on the home link?

Currently the Home Address option is sent from MNs to CNs and all CNs must
know how to interpret this in order for communication to work.
(The TCP connection should be identified using the address in the Home Address
option and not the IPv6 source address of the packet, etc).

I think some (I don't know how many) of the shipping IPv6 implementations
do this. I don't know if a sufficiently large number of IPv6 implementations
of CNs will support this to make things interoperate with MIPv6 MNs.

However, if the WG takes the path of putting the information currently in
the Home Address option into the new extension header as you propose,
then some new mechanisms need to be constructed to be able to detect
when a CN doesn't understand the new extension header.
(Note that this is not an issue for the CN not understanding the BU - ignoring
the BU just has the effect of not optimizing the routing.)

A possible way of handling this would be for the MN to notice when it
receives an ICMP parameter problem with code payload type unknown
that the CN might not support it. The the MN, instead of using the 
new extension header to carry the home address, would need to tunnel
the packet through the HA (reverse tunnel).


Of course, if the WG is interested in this level surgery it would also
make sense to seriously consider the proposal that Bill Sommerfeld made
not long ago of replacing the use of routing header and home address option
with just IP in IP encapsulation, perhaps with optimized encapsulation formats
when only one extra IP address is needed in the packet.

Hesham,

I would prefer to wait on making this a working group item. While 
intertechnology handover is an important topic, it is not clear at
this point what the requirements are and whether a change in MIPv6
is really necessary. It might rather be an item for Seamoby, for
example. I have not had time to review this draft in detail, and
would prefer a more comprehensive discussion on intertechnology
handover prior to committing to working group items, as opposed
to picking and choosing particular mechanisms piecemeal. The
latter approach has poorly served the working group in the past.

We thought about that in the first place. I think that such solution
would lead to flooding the network with BUs.  All your family is in the
same car and each member has a session with grand-ma.  Why would all
members send a BU to grand-ma when you could aggregate it ? 
Prefix-scope BUs leaves room for more optimizations.

I disagree. Authentication is not an upside. A node should not be
allowed to send a BU 'on behalf' of another node.  Here, it's not a
matter of authorization, but a matter of authentication.  Are you
willing the MR to authenticate on behalf of yourself ?   I am not sure
the MR has whatever credentials for this,  particularly if the MNN is a
VMN, nor that it would be such a good idea.You are in a flight, would
you allow the aircraft company to authenticate on-behalf of you ?  I can
imagine transient issues.  

In the prefix-scope BU proposal, the BU is sent by the MR and the MR is
authenticated as being the one it claims to be.   Whether or not MR has
the right to advertise the BU is an authorization issue, not
authentication issue.  I would prefer this scenario.  

BTW, couldn't we rely on certificates to authorize a MR to send a BU for
a prefix /p ?  I am not a securiry guy, then this might not make sense,
but no one gave my a no-reply to this when I first mentioned it.

Someone (I forgot who) pointed out that even this was a problem for 
careful implementations of IPsec.
The claim (which I understand and agree with) is that
a TCP connection would like to use the same security policy for the lifetime
of the connection. If you don't then how can you use IPsec to prevent 
a unsecure RST packet from blowing away your connection?

Thus if the packet is piggyback on a TCP SYN packet the peer
is likely to assume that all of that TCP connection will be secured,
but that will not be the case since the SYN was only secured as a site effect
of securing the piggy-backed BU.

I don't know if there are similar issues for the reverse case when
the connection starts off not being protected by IPsec and later a single
TCP packet is protected by IPsec.

But such options are a possible source of interoperability problems ...

John,

Good points.

The alternative, of course, is that the MR could run a NAT and all
the hosts behind the MR have private addresses. When the MR moves,
the MR can do route optimization for the external addresses. None
of the nodes behind the MR need to be mobile aware in this case.

The question is what has the larger downside: triangle routing or
not having the benefits of end-to-end, like push?

Sorry for that message, it should have been To: Thierry only.  It says
that probably "certificates" are related to PKI.

Hi Basavaraj,

>I guess your suggestion is to add further clarification in section 9.2
>detailing the behavior when the lifetime of a binding expires.

You are right. Currently, the behavior when the lifetime expires is to
just delete the binding entry. It can be modified to add that the home
agent MUST stop intercepting packets on the mobile node's home link
addressed to the mobile node.

> If the ifetime of the binding for an MN expires, does the HA send out a
>"gratuitous" Neighbor Advertisement message on the home link?

No, that does not happen. The MN, if it is up and still needs mobility
support, would have sent a Binding Update to the HA before the entry
expired, but the HA doesn't assume the MN is up unless it gets a fresh
Binding Update.

Thanks,

- KK

Keeping the end nodes as ignorant as possible of
routing is certainly a worthwhile goal, but I'm
not convinced that it should be the prime
requirement. Recall that this problem is also
related to network renumbering so at some level
the MN is going to need to integrate its mobility
with network renumbering anyway.

If you consider it, this is exactly what the
relationship between a router and host/router is:
the host delegates responsibility for the packet's
fate to the next router, and so on. This is, I
think, the root of why this is so difficult. In
the current net the trust is built by localized
decisions where the objects which need to trust
each other are usually well known to each other.
Once you bring in any form of tunnel (which route
optimization is) you break the localization
property unless you can somehow find a way to
leverage the current transitive trust model.

This runs afoul of the same need-a-global-PKI
problem that sent MIPv6 back to the WG to figure
something else out. Considering the likelihood of
very small MR's (your car MR, for example), any
certificate based solution would run into the same
objections.

Suppose the protocol requires the CN to authenticate what prefix
A and B are allowed to claim with the HA?

The issue then becomes whether the HA can be trusted. Now, suppose
the protocol requires that the HA be authenticable via a chain
of trust through the routing update authentication mechanism 
used to authenticate OSPF and BGP routes?

IHMO, the answer is "by the same means that any router trusts
the OSPF or BGP updates from other routers that tell it to send packets to a 
remote entity for a whole prefix." Or "by a different means that
allows the CN via some out-of-band authentication technique
to verify that the HA and CN control the prefix in question and
therefore have the right to change it".

This requirement is fairly strict and go beyond the mobile
host requirements of simply proving that the sender of the BU
is who you were corresponding with in the past. But perhaps that
is as it should be, the consequences of hijacking a routing
prefix are much more dire than hijacking an address.

Hi all,

Does anyone know of any v4 work on mobile networking?  It would seem
that most if not all if not all of this work is concentrated on v6; if
v4 resources exist or don't, I'd like to know.

Thanks,
John

Right.

This would be bad for mobile nodes that want to sleep but use the same
security association when they wake up a few hours later.

This seems to be an implementation issue. You could specify a large
lifetime for the binding and allow MNs to sleep. I think flushing the
entire context in case of lifetime expiry of a binding makes sense.

But these are two different things.  The binding has to do with
getting packets to go places.  The security association has to do
with authenticating bindings.  Just because the home agent is supposed
to stop redirecting packets doesn't mean that it needs to purge the
whole means by which binding updates are authenticated.

Why make them the same?  They aren't even managed in the same part
of the code.

Charlie P.

Indeed.  Then let me refine my constraints: (1) HA and MR should match
their first n bits and be different on bit n+1 and (2) MNN should
longest match n+1 bits either with HA or with MR.  Thus CN can
rightfuly believe a prefix at most /n+1.

For the above case, if MR and HA are on 10.1/16 and MNN on 10.3/16
then MR and HA would match on first 16 bits but MNN would not match
that 16 bits.  Thus CN will not believe a claim on 10.2/15.

For same case, if HA and MNN are on 10.1/16 and MR is on 10.3/16 then
HA and MR would match the first 8 bits, MNN would match the 9 (n+1)
bits but not longest (it has a longer match 16 with HA).  Thus CN will
not believe a claim on 10.2/9.

I think this can work.

when the binding chache entry expires, you send a binding 
request for the mobile node. if the mobile node does not
respond you delete the binding cache entry and the proxy
neighbor cache entry. you do not delete the security
association the home agent shares with the mobile node. 
after deleting the proxy neighbor cache entry the home 
agent does not intercept packet, does not send out 
neighbor advertisements on behalf of the mobile node. 
this is the default behavior.

Alex,

I think you are missing Erik's point.

The issue is independent of whether the CN knows the subnet relationship
between MN, HA, and MR. The issue is whether the CN can authenticate
that the MR is authorized to route the prefix. It is impossible
to verify this by an exchange between the CN, MR, and HA without
some kind of out-of-band exchange of security material, or a
trust relationship that taps into such an out-of-band exchange.

   There seems to be two separable attacks. First is
   the attack where a spoofer is not reachable
   on the prefix it is attempting to control at all.
   A simple return routability test as is being proposed
   for MIPv6 ought to provide adequate protection to 
   counter that attack (we hope). The second is when
   a node which is reachable on the proposed prefix,
   but is trying to hijack a larger prefix than it is
   authorized for. I believe that the only nodes which
   can make a determination as to whether the mobile 
   router is authorized to advertize that prefix to
   the CN are the routers in the path between MN and
   CN by way of HA.

   In fact, it seems that some router between HA
   and CN ought to know whether it summarizes a prefix
   which is smaller than the proposed prefix and thus
   be able to reject the request. That is, suppose we
   have a MN trying to advertize a /8 to a CN. If the
   CN sends the proposed BU toward MN (say with router
   alert on for grins), and a router in the path discovers
   that it summarizes a /16 toward the MN, then
   it would know that the request is not legitimate
   since it must summarize prefixes which are strictly
   larger than in the downstream direction. Whether this
   solves all potential attacks, I have no idea, but it
   does seem to have the potential for solving this 
   particular attack.

Thanks for the clarification Vijay. It does make sense to leave
the SA associated with the MN intact even if the binding cache is
cleared.

Very nice wording.  I have sent two constraints in a previous email, I
need example cases to test them against, and this takes time.

Wow, sounds like a real challenge.

One can deduce the longest prefix of two addresses from the two
addresses.  A prefix draft would keep that: deduce the longest key of
the prefix from the keys of the two addresses.  So that we can route
acording to keys, not to prefixes :-)

I think that knowing the true MR's prefix by probing MR-HA-MNN does
say a lot about what that MR can claim.  Of course, "probing" will
probably contain keying material.

In the above, you stress "route" or "prefix"?

Indeed, my "probing" is your "out-of-band".

I purposefully minimized it in order to avoid the tendency to put all
solutions into the hands of magic crypto.  There's also the
functional.

I think there are cases where the CN can itself
look at what's claimed, send probes and decide
what it can trust.  See my constraints on HA, MR
and MNN home addresses.  Please discard it I
need to get rid of it.

   Send probes to _what_? I'm afraid that you're
   going to be a lot more specific because the
   trust models along with the knowledge and
   incentives of various hosts/routers are vary
   widely.

One issue is whether the CN is allowed to route at all, the other
is whether it is allowed to route the prefix. Answering the second
answers the first, and the second question is the one that
is of relevance here.

   The problem is that HA may not a) be trustworthy or
   b) authoratative. Assuming this knowledge is readily
   available anywhere (which I'm not sure), it needs to
   be from a trustworthy and authoratative source.

                 Call for Papers
             IEEE Communications Magazine
              Internet Technology Series
                   Series Editors
 Michah Lerner (AT&T) and Khaled Elsayed (Cairo University)
                       IP in 2005 
       Scalability, Programmability, and Virtualization 
                in the Internet


The scalable Internet presents challenges and paradoxes.
Scalable and malleable services leverage stateless
distributed control over the global address space. Transport
bindings nevertheless influence service behavior through the
control of access, the logical flow of information, as well
as the availability of diverse content. Such systems
challenge the traditional traffic engineering methods for
allocation of buffers and assignment of resources. The
Internet Technology series of the IEEE Communications
Magazine is calling for original tutorial papers about these
challenges and their resolution, and suggest the following
topics: 

- Scalability issues in BGP and routing tables 

- Clouds (native IP) vs. strings (MPLS) - Internet evolution
  choices 

- Programmable routers - architectures and services 

- Instantiation and Virtualization – IP services provide
  concrete capabilities through the structuring of
  resources. 

- Virtualization of the transport service layers - such as
  pervasive virtual private networks 

- Internet services - multilevel and location-aware mobile
  services, including voice over IP (VoIP) 

IEEE Communications Magazine is read by tens of thousands of
Communications Society members. The papers will be available
on the Internet through Communications Magazine Interactive,
the WWW edition of the magazine. Details about IEEE
Communications Magazine can be found at
http://www.comsoc.org/ci/. 
Sample publications published within the Internet Technology
Series can be found in the January 2001 and July 2001 issues
of the IEEE Communicarions Magazine. 

Tentative Schedule
 
 Manuscripts due: Nov 1, 2001 
Notification of acceptance: Jan 15, 2002  
(for the April 2002 issue) 
Final copy due: One month before final publication date 
Prospective Magazine issues: April, August, and Oct. 2002 

How to Submit Manuscripts
Article Style Information 
========================= 
Articles should be tutorial in nature and should be written
in a style comprehensible to readers outside the specialty
of the article. Articles may be edited for content, and will
be copyedited for compliance with the magazine's style
guidelines. Page proofs will be sent to the contact author
for final review prior to publication. 

Mathematical equations should not be used unless they are
vital to the presentation. Even then, they should be kept to
a minimum. If the article has numerous equations, please
contact the editor handling the manuscript. 

References should be included only to guide readers to more
information on the topic; the reference list should not
include every available source (a limit of ten references is
recommended). Use footnotes only where necessary. 

Articles should not exceed 4500 words. 

Figures and tables should be limited to a combined total of
six. If the article exceeds these recommended limits, please
contact the editor handling the manuscript. 

Submission 
========================= 
Electronic submission of manuscripts as either PDF
(preferred) or Postscript is required. Please send your
submission to both of the series editors: 
Khaled Elsayed: khaled@ieee.org 
Michah Lerner: michah@ieee.org

Sorry, it was "send probes to home subnet".
But it looks like you guys have taken on a
much bigger endeavour, I will step aside.

   What this says is that the router(s) which summarizes this
   route (say 10.0.0.0/14) is the one that knows that A claiming
   10.0.0.0/15 (or less) is bogus. 

   Yes?

Hello,

I want to add my concerns about mandating the use of HMAC-MD5 to RFC2002bis.

I don't think the use of SHOULD for MD5 usage is strong enough. Please take 
a look at this from the customers' perspective. There are currently several 
large networks with almost 2 million subscribers using Mobile IP with MD5 
as specified in RFC2002. The fact that RFC2002 has been on the standards 
track for almost 5 years has resulted in production implementations 
requiring Mobile IP functionality based on non-standard specifications.

While I understand the desire to make the final specification for Mobile IP 
as complete and robust as possible, the existence of a large deployment of 
RFC2002 based systems requires inter-operability with RFC2002. Please 
consider making MD5 a MUST in the spec.

Thanks,
--Read

   I was not saying neither that a) HA is
   trustworthy nor that b) authoritative.  I
   was saying that packets get routed to HA,
   as HA claims they are.  You can try to
   route packets to non-existing HA's and
   forge replies from somewhere else, and
   _this_ can be solved by putting keying
   material in the probes.

   Or you question that today's network
   routability can not be trusted?

Also, the router that routes 10.1.0.0/16 and 10.3.0./16 to HA knows
that it doesn't route 10.2.0.0/16 to HA.  Thus it can do ingress
filtering on replies from HA to CN probes.  But probably ingress
filtering should not be required.

Hi John,

Are you referring to implementations of 
Mobile Networks/Routers for MIPv4?  If so, Cisco has an
implementation.

Thanks,
Madhavi

Folks,

Just want to remind everyone that while the topic of Mobile routers is
interesting, there are other more pressing WG items that need to be
resolved and completed before we can take on this subject and develop
any solutions. So while the mailing list is buzzing with activity, there
is
no real progress being made in terms of what the WG is chartered to
do and accomplish in the near term.

   The short answer is that the HA cannot be trusted
   as a blanket statement. The routers which may be
   able to produce a trustworthy answer about a particular
   prefix may have no involvement with mobility at present.

   As I've mentioned in earlier mail, it's not necessarily
   in the CN's AS (I've had a bit more time to think about
   this since I wrote the previous note). It is a router
   which has a stake in enforcing sanity on its subnet
   delegations. I'm thinking that it is either
   router who summarizes the subnet at an
   administrative domain or a top level BGP route.

   Not quite. The authentication just keeps outsiders
   out. If you're part of the BGP club though, anything
   is possible; if I want to advertise something ridiculous,
   nothing prevents me from doing that (that I know of).
   Same thing with RIP/OSPF/IS-IS...
   
   [disclaimer: BGP may have more safeguards than this,
    but the real point is that if you're part of the 
    BGP club, you can do significant damage to the routing
    system which is ultimately only enforceable by 
    other BGP's refusing to peer with you. If
    somebody knows otherwise, I'm all ears about
    how this is done.]

   I believe that we can delink this problem from the
   particular routing protocols; indeed, if there
   were a solution it ought to work equally well
   with static routes. I think that the important
   property is that is the router which summarizes
   the prefix on the trusted side of the
   delegation boundary.

   Right. See my straw proposal I sent this
   morning.

	=> The question is whether this complexity you mention above
	(L2 interaction, HC implications, Path MTU ....etc) are worth 
	the hassles. There is no foreseen benefit really if you're
	using ROHC for example. Do you think the perceived gain

	If it does then what you're suggesting would make a lot of sense.

Points taken, then this in some way boils down to deciding when to comply
to (parts of) draft-xx and when to break (to clean-up etc.)
I havn't been around in this bussiness long enough to judge, but recognize
that maybe more serious questions are awaiting decisions.

   	=> Should this one be kept for MIPv6 options as well ? 
   	Like the home adderss option for example.
   
=> there is a difference : BU needs a final header number,
H@ needs an intermediate header number but:
 - at the winter IETF meeting, Steve Deering clearly stated
   this (new intermediate header number) should *not* be done
 - all IPv6 implementations must be changed in order to deal with
   a new intermediate header number
BTW, what to do for BAs (which have an unclear security requirement,
I believe the purpose in to protect BAs for home registration, not
all BAs ???) and BR...

   	=> I undersand but it would make sense to avoid having another 
   	header if we alow the authentication data in the BU option. 
   	This is the hypothetical scenario: 
   	The BU carries its own authentication data. In this case the Home 
   	address option need not be in the DST-1 header. So it can be placed
   	in the same "new" ext header. Provided that there was nothing else
   	in a DST header we've saved the overhead of one ext header.
   
=> I disagree because this optimization will make BU packets special,
i.e. all other MN->CN packets will carry a visible H@ in a DST header.
If the MN->CN traffic is protected by IPsec this will be a mess.

   	a separate one as far as I can see.
   
=> of course! But for Binding Requests?

 In your previous mail you wrote:

   A few comments mainly from an implementation point of view:
   
   In draft-13, the MIPv6 protocol data was put into up to *2* Destination Option
   Headers. These headers had to be placed correctly in between the other
   ext-headers (before/after AH). Another (not yet defined) dest-opt header could be
   in the packet. That wasn't very clean.
   
   I should like to see new header extension types defined in the same breathing as
   the requirement on ordering of all the extension headers.
   That said, if possible, I favour putting *all* MIPv6 data (incl. Home Address
   Option) into *one* new extension header type.
   
=> STOP!!!
This issue was solved at the IETF winter meeting:
 - you can put destination option headers where you'd like
 - NO new intermediate extention header should be defined
 - the advanced API should be updated in order to allow orders
   not in RFC 2460.

If you claim that HA can not be trusted, then this applies equally well
to mobile HOSTS, doesn't it ?  As far as standard MIPv6 for mobile HOSTS
is concerned, an implication of this statement is that solutions like
BAKE and cie wouldn't give much help for the authorization of the MH to
send a BU for its home address.  

Just trying to be consistent.

 In your previous mail you wrote:

   This would be bad for mobile nodes that want to sleep but use the same
   security association when they wake up a few hours later.
   
=> are HA supposed to have infinite (2^64 * sizeof(context)) memory?
BTW if keys have their own lifetime there is no issue (i.e. add
this as a requirement for key management with all the little details
like keys expire before the binding, etc).

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		: IP Mobility Support for IPv4, revised
	Author(s)	: C. Perkins
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mobileip-rfc2002-bis-07.txt
	Pages		: 95
	Date		: 21-Aug-01
	
This document specifies protocol enhancements that allow transparent
routing of IP datagrams to mobile nodes in the Internet.  Each
mobile node is always identified by its home address, regardless of
its current point of attachment to the Internet.  While situated
away from its home, a mobile node is also associated with a
care-of address, which provides information about its current
point of attachment to the Internet.  The protocol provides for
registering the care-of address with a home agent.  The home agent
sends datagrams destined for the mobile node through a tunnel to
the care-of address.  After arriving at the end of the tunnel, each
datagram is then delivered to the mobile node.

It's clear that a piggyback decision is done on a per-packet basis, 
but that's not what I addressed. My concern has been that sending BU 
piggybacked means that the SA to be established for this packet will 
address the security issues for the BU and the payload in the packet. 
As this SA will not be created just for one packet's lifetime, but 
last for a longer period, my comment has been that you may get into 
trouble if at a later time (when this SA is still valid) payload data 
has to be exchanged between MN and CN, which require the 
establishment of a different (from the security properties) SA. Will 
you then override the existing one, and if so will you also use the 
new one for future BUs, ... . As Erik already mentioned in an other 
email, this could easily become a source for interoperability 
problems.

Concerning the use of a new extension header for MIP BUs I would 
be in favor with this approach if it provides the necessary 
granularity to differ between BUs and payload exchanged between MN 
and CN from a security perspective (using existing IPSec selectors). 
Reading the IPSec selectors chapter of the IPSec architecture (RFC 
2401) I'm not quite sure about that, as it contains: 

"     - Transport Layer Protocol: Obtained from the IPv4 "Protocol" 
        or  the IPv6 "Next Header" fields.  This may be an individual
        protocol number.  These packet fields may not contain the
        Transport Protocol due to the presence of IP extension
        headers, e.g., a Routing Header, AH, ESP, Fragmentation
        Header, Destination Options, Hop-by-hop options, etc.  Note
        that the Transport Protocol may not be available in the case
        of receipt of a packet with an ESP header, thus a value of
        "OPAQUE" SHOULD be supported. [REQUIRED for all
        implementations]

        NOTE: To locate the transport protocol, a system has to chain
        through the packet headers checking the "Protocol" or "Next
        Header" field until it encounters either one it recognizes as
        a transport protocol, or until it reaches one that isn't on
        its list of extension headers, or until it encounters an ESP
        header that renders the transport protocol opaque.  "

You could interpret this in a way, that the granularity of the IPSec 
selectors concerning the "Next Header" fields is only used for 
transport layer protocols (e.g. TCP, UDP, ...) and not for other 
"Next Header" fields (Routing, Fragment, ..., or a possible new 
MIP BU). If this interpretation is correct, what benefits from the 
security perspective will bring an new "Next Header" field for the 
BU? Maybe some IPSec gurus could correct me.

I've discussed about this with Charlie but we need mailing list approval.

My concern is about section 10.20 (returning Home).
Context is:

   When sending this Binding Update to its home agent, the mobile
   node must be careful in how it uses Neighbor Solicitation [17] (if
   needed) to learn the home agent's link-layer address, since the home
   agent will be currently configured to defend the mobile node's home
   address for Duplicate Address Detection.  In particular, a Neighbor
   Solicitation from the mobile node using its home address as the
   Source Address would be detected by the home agent as a duplicate
   address.  In many cases, Neighbor Solicitation by the mobile node
   for the home agent's address will not be necessary, since the mobile
   node may have already learned the home agent's link-layer address,
   for example from a Source Link-Layer Address option in the Router
   Advertisement from which it learned that its home address was on-link
   and that the mobile node had thus returned home.

The real issue is not "the Source Address would be detected by the
home agent as a duplicate address", it is simpler: the home
deregistration is not yet done so packets to the home address are
tunneled via the previous care-of address. But the result is the
same: NSs from the home address don't work.
Another detail to fix: the RA "from which it learned ..." is from
a router, not in all cases from the HA itself (Murphy's law applies:
if there is more than one router (the HA), the first RA will never
be from the HA, near 100% hit in my experiments :-).

The current proposal is:

   <context> If the mobile node
   does Neighbor Solicitation to learn the home agent's link-layer
   address, in this special case of the mobile node returning home, the
   mobile node MUST unicast the packet, and in addition set the Source
   Address of this Neighbor Solicitation to the unspecified address
   (0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0).  Since the solicitation is unicast, the home
   agent will be able to distinguish from a similar packet that would
   only be used for DAD. The home agent will send a multicast Neighbor
   Advertisement back to the mobile node with the Solicited flag ('S')
   set to zero.  The mobile node SHOULD accept this advertisement, and
   set the state of the Neighbor Cache entry for the home agent to
   REACHABLE.

The text is not very clear but the NS is for the HA own address.
The problem is that this simply cannot work because in order to unicast
the NS to the HA, the HA link-layer address must be already known...

The current proposal is a (wrong) fix of the old proposal (ID 12):

   If the mobile node
   does Neighbor Solicitation to learn the home agent's link-layer
   address, in this special case of the mobile node returning home, the
   mobile node MUST set the Source Address of this Neighbor Solicitation
   to the unspecified address.

This works but is a DAD probe for the HA own address so a better
solution was sought...

My proposal to fix the problem is:
 - first to roll back to the previous version
 - second to weaken the MUST to a MAY (not a SHOULD in order to keep
   a place for the last item)
 - third to list all the cases where there is an immediate solution
   (immediate: without changing a word in other IPv6 standards)
 - four to seek for another better solution

Third: cases where ID 12 solution is not needed (in order):
 - RA from the HA with a source link-layer option
 - if the link-local address MN is not registered, just use it
   as source to multicast a NS for the HA address
 - if a MN address is not registered, idem

Four: hints for a better solution:
 - make a source address available to MNs
 - RAs from the HA may not include a source link-layer option,
   make the inclusion of source link-layer option mandatory for HAs
 - HAs may not send RAs on reception of RS, make answer mandatory for HAs
 - HAs must delay answer (RFC 2461 6.2.6), remove this delay when
   the RS comes from a MN (of course the issue is to recognize this case).

So my last idea about a solution is:
 - when the MN detect a possible link change to the home link
   (from the link-layer or by the reception of a RA with a home prefix)
   the MN MUST multicast some RS without its source link-layer option
   (change to the SHOULD in RFC 2461 4.2) from its home address to
   all routers
 - an ordinary router just applies RFC 2461 6.2.6
 - a HA which doesn't serve the MN (i.e. hasn't a home registration
   for the MN home address) applies RFC 2461 6.2.6 with a little
   improvement: it SHOULD multicast (to all nodes) the RA
   (note: RFC 2461 gives the choice between unicast or multicast
   solicited RAs)
 - a HA which serves the MN (i.e. has a home registration for the
   MN home address) MUST multicast to all nodes the RA without delay
   with a source link-layer option if the link has addresses.

This makes the default mechanism (good RAs from the HA) to work in
all cases with an exception: the MN must be a host because a router
must not send RSs... So I am in favor to keep the old solution with
a MAY.

Regards

Francis.Dupont@enst-bretagne.fr

PS: if multicasts to all routers/all nodes are too expensive,
solicited-node addresses do the job (the MN home address and
the HA own address are known) and doesn't need a deep change
into current router implementations (no check of the multicast
destination of RS/RA, BTW RFC 2461 6.1.1 & 6.1.2 has not such
a check in RS/RA validation rules).

   Assuming you are talking about stationary hosts behind
   a mobile router (?) (or even MN's), then sure it can't
   be trusted. It should be noted that "cannot be trusted"
   really has an implicit suffix of "in all cases". Indeed,
   if we can find something which is trustworthy
   and accurate in the proper context to give us a
   truthful answer to "is this BU legitimate" then 
   we've made some progress.

A solution such as BAKE tries to prove authorization by "probing" the
return routability. The CN can check that the same MN is reachable both
by its CoA and home address.

It relies on the routing system to deliver packets to the MN's home
address. It is weak, since it is not using out-of-band signalling and is
exposed to some MitM attacks.

However, this method works for single addresses. But you don't do the
same for an entire prefix. You can't probe all (2^64) possible MNNs in a
single /64 claimed by a MR.

:
I agree that this is the biggest drawback of handing the BU's this way.
However, there are several drawbacks to the prefix scope BUs.
- They require a longest prefix match lookup, rather then an exact match
lookup in the binding cache on the part of the CN.  Exact match can be
linear on the number of entries in the binding cache, while prefix match
cannot (please correct me if I'm wrong)  If we could predict the future, it
would be easy to see which way this CPU vs. memory tradeoff should go.
Right now, I have no idea.  But, grandma will likely have at least as much
or more TCP or application state as BU state per session.
- They require more trust on the part of the CN to accept the BU.  Of
course, since many of the security issues are somewhat unresolved in the
general senses, I am making an something of an assumption here.

So, if every one tries to opens session with grandma at the same time, is it
better to a.) flood a bunch of single address BUs, or b.) to send a single
prefix BU's, that gets rejected because grandma (or rather, whoever wrote
grandma's IPv6 stack) was afraid of unforeseen security exploits with prefix
BU's, and all packets take a triangular route.

So, in a sense, my argument against the prefix BU is that while it is
superior in the example you gave, it has a more damaging worst case
scenario.

Another possibility is to allow both, but only allow the prefix BU when
strong authentication/authorization is available.  One situation where all
MNNs may have sessions with a single CN is DNS.  Since your DNS is likely to
share in whatever PKI your ISP or organization sets up, it's much easier to
securely set up a prefix-BU.

:
You are correct - I should have said authorization is easier.  But I must
disagree with your reasoning that the MR should not be able to send BU's on
behalf of another node.  Any node behind a router places this kind of trust
in its router - after all, any intermediate router between two nodes can
easily hijack a session.

My reasoning for why authorization is easier is a bit harder to show.  It
really depends on what method (beside strong PKI based methods) is used to
authorize bindings.  I was under the impression, based discussion on this
list, that part of the problem with authorizing prefix BU's was the fact
that the HA can't know for sure whether a certain prefix length is OK for
the MR to bind with an arbitrary CN.  Not using prefix-BUs gets around this.

Maybe I'm missing something, but doesn't the MN have a security
association with it's HA? So the MN can trust it's HA. The issue
here is whether the CN can trust the HA, and without a similar
security association, I think Michael's point is correct.

   Ah. Yes, just because I trust my home agent doesn't
   mean that everybody should trust my home agent. The
   home agent *may* be trustable, but if the CN doesn't
   have any way to differentiate trustworthy ones from
   untrustworthy ones, it doesn't do it much good, and
   must therefore assume it is not trustworthy either.

   What may work here is a UN Security Council like
   approach here where the routers in the path between
   CN and HA inclusive all have absolute veto power
   over any proposal. Only by running this gauntlet
   can any request be accepted.

Hi all,

The text on "Sending Advertisements to the Mobile Node"
says that the Unique Identifier field of a Binding Update is
compared to that sent with the Binding Request.

Section 9.8.3 :
----------------
A Binding Update matches a Binding Request if it specifies a binding
for the mobile node to which the Binding Request was sent and contains
a Unique Identifier Sub-Option matching the unique identifier sent in
the Unique Identifier Sub-Option in the Binding Request.

Does this requirement make it mandatory for the Conceptual DS of the
Binding Cache to contain a field for the UID sent with the BR, to be
able to perform the comparison ?

Thanks for any information on this!

Regards,

- KK

hi Francis,

some comments....

the MN detects that it has returned home by getting a router
advertisement from the home agent or from a router on the home
link. lets assume the router advertisement does not have a 
source link layer address option.

now the MN needs the home agent's MAC address to send a 
deregistration BU.

the MN sends a neighbor solicitation first

neighbor solicitation 
	src = unspecified address
	dst = all nodes multicast address
	target = Home Agent

the home agent receives the NS and respnds with a NA.
since the source address for the NS was unspecified, 
the NA is sent to the all nodes multicast address.

neighbor advertisment
	src = link local
	dst = all nodes multicast address
	target = Home Agent

since the dst address on the NA is all nodes multicast 
address this packet skips any binding cache entry that
exists for the MN.

the MN receives this NA and creates a REACHABLE neighbor
cache for the Home Agent.

after that the MN sends a BU for deregistration.

wont this work?

Would not the trust relationship between the HA and the CN is analogous to a
router which delivers a packet on the last hop to another non mobile node?
Doesn't the inherent trust relationship (of the IP routers) that the packet
sent to an IP address, the home address, will be delivered to the correct
network, guard sufficiently against this percieved HA, MN collusion threat?

If not, then I guess we can't trust these last hop routers either for even
non-mobile cases and we would have to use AH on every packet send from any
source to any destination? It seems to me that to question whether the HA
can be trusted is to question if any router can be trusted.

   Ah. Yes, just because I trust my home agent doesn't
   mean that everybody should trust my home agent. The
   home agent *may* be trustable, but if the CN doesn't
   have any way to differentiate trustworthy ones from
   untrustworthy ones, it doesn't do it much good, and
   must therefore assume it is not trustworthy either.

   What may work here is a UN Security Council like
   approach here where the routers in the path between
   CN and HA inclusive all have absolute veto power
   over any proposal. Only by running this gauntlet
   can any request be accepted.

Glenn,

The issue is that the HA is not required to participate in any
standard routing update protocol, so the CN cannot have confidence
that it is authorized to distribute routing information. Telling
the CN that an MN had the right to route a prefix is essentially
distributing routing information.

All that complexity of figuring out when it is worthwhile and possible to
piggyback lies on the engineer implementing piggybacking. If you rather not
bother, then do not piggyback. There is no added complexity for the
recipient.

Also, if you'd *know* piggybacking has absolutely no benefit, why'd you tell
your competitors that :-?

Seriously, you should piggyback only if you think it's worth the effort.

The assumption for this discussion has been that the SPD entries for the BU
and for the payload can be separately identified (with the new next header
value). From this perspective the problem you describe does not arise.

You mean that the recipient's IPsec implementation is creating new SPD
entries dynamically and implicitly as the side effect of a IPsec envelope
used with the TCP SYN packet?

If a selector for Mobile IP Next Header is defined, and the SA used for
reception of the packet specifies this selector (in which case it would NOT
contain a selector for TCP), there is no reason for the IPsec implementation
to create any SPD entries for the piggybacked TCP session. 

But there seems to be a related issue: the recipient should be able to check
that the piggybacked TCP packet can indeed get in without IPsec protection.

Normally, inbound IPsec processing matches also the packets that came with
no IPsec headers against the SPD to determine whether they *should* have
come with IPsec headers.

If Mobile IP Next Header selector is implemented as Transport Layer Protocol
selector, there is no way that IPsec inbound processing could know to look
for another embedded transport protocol selector (e.g. TCP) to make sure
that the SPD entry for that states "passby".

However, if a new selector parameter is defined for "in-between" Next
Headers, then both the sender and recipient of any piggybacked transport
protocol could check that the SPD entry matching the transport selector does
not require IPsec processing.

The new selector parameter would be needed to be implemented by all CNs
supporting route optimization (as well as the mobile nodes themselves), and
the associated check for the SPD entry for the piggybacked transport message
should be implemented at the same time as the new selector parameter.

By the RFC2401 only the first matching SPD entry is used for packet's IPsec
processing ("the first matching entry is consistently selected"). This would
need to change in case of "in-between" Next Header selectors and piggybacked
transport protocol messages, where multiple SPD entries need to be selected
and checked by both ends. Is this acceptable?

Hesham,

As you see from my reply to Erik's message, there may be something in there
relating to the IPsec selectors for Next Headers other than transport
protocols. I don't know if that is a show-stopper for piggybacking or not.

What do you think?

I agree that in theory such a method to extract the hop-by-hop authorization
choices can work. So you are providing a good indication of the issues
in accomplishing authorization for prefix BUs.  

I currently have no idea if such a scheme can be made to work in practice.

Yes.

Of course, it needs to be able to understand the identities "A" and "B"
in order to answer that question. This might be easy of A and B are IP address
*from the same prefix*. I don't know what trouble multiple global IPv6 
prefixes per subnet will add :-)

The mechanism used to authorize (authenticate isn't really the problem here :-)
routing updates are hop-by-hop i.e. a BGP speaker might have a configured list
of prefixes that peer is allowed to advertise. Due to the aggregation in the
routing tables these authorization choices can't possibly be extract beyond
where aggregation happens.

So I don't see how you can extend this to cover multiple routing
adjacency hops - and that is essentially what you are proposing as far 
as I can tell.

This is gettting a bit off topic but ...

It is possible to manually define lists of prefixes that are acceptable
from routing peers, indepedent of the routing protocol as far as I know.
Thus X could configure its BGP speakers that talk to Y to only accept
prefixes P1, P2, etc.

I don't know if this is in operational use at all.

I've heard of an effort to explore automating this based on the IPv4 address
assignments done by the RIRs somehow, but a lot of the IPv4 address space
was assigned by the IANA before the RIRs arrived.

I think that is what I'm saying (I've though more in terms of what
the implementation does than how this fits with the SPD concept).
I think an example is that the SPD initially has a matching entry
(e.g. just for TCP + the destination port) allowing IPsec or no IPsec.
But when a new connection is created an SPD entry is created which matches
just that connection and the entry constrains the policy to be what
was used on the SYN.

I don't know if such a scheme is discussed in RFC2401 but it seems useful
since it allows one to build servers where the client can choose whether
or not it wants to use ipsec i.e. there is less coordination needed.

Seems like things are simpler without piggybacking.

This is exactly what my second comment in my previous email was 
about. Todays IPSec doesn't provide this functionality, so IPSec 
would need to be enhance by the following: 

1. Add a new IPSec selector (what you called "in-between" Next 
Header)

2. Allow IPSec implementation to apply two IPSec policies (one for 
the "in-between" Next Header, one for the payload) to the same 
packet. What shall be done, if both are contradictorily? This could 
become quite complex for implementations.

And as you mention below, this has to be done for all CNs and MNs, 
that is for nearly all host implementations. I'm not sure if it will 
be possible to get these IPSec modifications done. And is 
piggybacking really worth this effort?

	You or someone else more involved in IPsec can perhaps

By "in-between" all IPv6 Next Headers are meant, which are no 
transport layer header, like Routing Header, Fragment Header or a

It's not only the new Next Header, also the processing has to be a 
little bit modified (see my comment in the previous mail). I wouldn't 
expect these modifications to be done very easy.

Yes, and in order to simplify things if we decide to remove piggybacking
the BU next header (or whatever it will be called) will be defined
as a new transport header from the IPsec perspective (i.e.
the same way you'd add SCTP support).

I have no idea how complext such changes would be.
For instance, what would happen if the SPD matches for one part of the
packet and not the other - would the whole packet be rejected or
just the part with a non-matching SPD be ignored?

Let's step back and look at what problem we think we are solving with
piggybacking:
 - saving packets and or bytes on the first hop link of the BU
 - saving packets and/or bytes end-end (since other hops might have
   low bandwidth)

If all we care about is the first then one can envision an IPoverFoo specific
method of carrying two IP packets in a single link-layer packet.

If we care about solving the second one perhaps we can make this more
explicit and simple but providing exactly such a mechanism: an e2e mechanism
to send two packets (with the same IPv6 source, dest, tclass, and flowid)
as a single packet.

This could be done by definition a new extension header called
	multipacket
which would include some number of nexthdr and lengths values.

The receive side processing of such an extension header would occur before
IPsec (i.e. IPsec header would not be placed before this header) and
would result in two separate packets being produced and processed completely
independently by the receiver.

Thus the IPsec SPD checks would apply to two separate packets just as without
piggybacking.

So what problems does the multipacket extension header introduce?
Well, if it is general then firewalls and other middleboxes migh need to
look deeper into the packet. But this isn't much different than skipping the
destination options header containing the BU.

What diffserv labels(tclass) would apply to the packet? 
Should we restrict the multipacket extension to only contain one TCP/UDP
packet to make such determination easier?

[BTW: I think Robert Elz proposed such a mechanism for IPv6 a long time ago -
back when IPv6 header formats were painted using charcoal and greese inside 
caves in Australia, France, and elsewhere.]

From draft-14:

8.5. Sending Binding Acknowledgements

                   and the packet MUST be sent using a Routing header
                                  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
   in the same way as any other packet sent to a mobile node using a
   care-of address (even if the binding was rejected), as described in
   Section 8.9.

8.9. Sending Packets to a Mobile Node

   Before sending any packet, the sending node SHOULD examine its
   Binding Cache for an entry for the destination address to which the
   packet is being sent.  If the sending node has a Binding Cache entry
   for this address, the sending node SHOULD use a Routing header

I find the 2 sections in conflict. Further sec. 5.2 also says
"The packet is sent using a routing header"



Comments to De-registration (not touching the questions raised by
Francis Dupont recently).

The deregistration may be sent from
 a) the Home Address (any Lifetime)
 b) the latest Care Of Address (Lifetime = 0)
 c) another address (Lifetime = 0)

First the Binding Cache Entry (BCE) is deleted (see sec. 8.4 and 9.2)
then the Binding Acknowledgement (BA) is sent.

As mentioned above, the BA must be sent with a routing header, but
we have no BCE anymore.

In case a) the BA should be sent to the Home Address (in this case a
routing header is not really needed, doesn't harm much either).
In case b) and c) the BA could reasonably be sent back to the source
address of the deregistration, which in case b) is the BCE just deleted.

This procedure is very much the same as described in sec. 5.2 when
*rejecting* a BU - in this case, however, the BU is not rejected and
the acceptance procedure is used.

Have I missed something or should this be added/clarified in the draft?

Peter

Hi Tony,

   draft-ietf-mobileip-optim-10.txt completed WG Last Call late last year.
We've been waiting
to forward it for IESG consideration because of the need to get MIPv6 done
and the problems with
route optimization in that spec.  So far there hasn't been a strong push
against that stance.

From my reading it does not seem to be in the 2401, I don't know if it is
somewhere else. By 2401 a SPD entry either requires IPsec or not (or tells
to drop the matching packet).

If the selector in the SA specifies the Mobile IP Next Header value, the
implementation would have to assume that the TCP message arrived without
IPsec protection. If the source intended to use IPsec for TCP protection, it
would have not piggybacked the two messages in same packet, but separate
packets with separate SAs.

Note that all this discussion has been conditional on the assumption of
using IPsec for BU protection with a new Next Header value definition for
IPsec (either as a transport selector or something new). Now it seems to me
that with this assumption, piggybacking can not be used, unless IPsec goes
and defines the behavior I described for "in-between" next headers.

There still is the case where the BU has it's own, embedded authentication
mechanism (non-IPsec). Packets with those could also carry regular transport
messages and associated IPsec headers for their protection. In this case I
can't see any additional complexity from piggybacking for the recipient.

Can we agree on these conclusions?

My issue appears whether the BU remains as a destination option or
is in its own extension header.
But making it a separate header makes it easier to see these aspects of
the interaction with the SPD.

Agreed from the perspective of IPsec.
(There are still PMTU, ROHC? issues etc with piggybacking.)

These issues burden the sender choosing to piggyback, not the innocent

Since both source and destination could often be wireless (or, more
abstractly, low-bandwidth) connections, end-to-end is important.
If you believe in ad hoc networks, then some intermediate links
might also be low-bandwidth.

The main purpose is saving packets by not sending Binding Updates
unless they are needed, and often they aren't needed until the
mobile wants to send data.  In cases where the Binding Update was
needed and the mobile node knows this but doesn't have any data,
then of course the update can be sent.  In cases where the mobile
node guesses wrong and doesn't send the update even when some
correspondent node would find it useful, either the home agent
or a smooth handover mechanism can help.

For this, I think it is very natural to model the outgoing data
stream from the mobile node as requiring occasional redirection
for the correspondent node, whenever the mobile node determines that
its previous care-of address isn't topologically correct any more.
This model leads naturally to including the Binding Update with
the data itself, because the route table can be marked with a flag
that says when packets need to include a Binding Update.

Of course there are other ways to model the necessary signalling,
somme of which will resolve some of the current difficulties with
IPsec AH.  I am in favor of continuing the existing way of including
Binding Update with data packets because it is bandwidth-efficient,
and there is a natural implementation for it.

If IPsec AH did the right thing for our needs, this discussion
would never have come up.  Furthermore, there are plenty of people
who claim that AH was a mistake anyway, independent of Mobile IP.
If IPsec AH can be made to do the right thing in the future, we should
allow it.  But to use IPsec AH problems as the basis for reducing the
potential performance of Mobile IPv6 seems wrong to me.

I'm reminded of the frequent accusations that IETF doesn't care about
wireless.  A lot of people do.  Other people think it's not worth
the effort.  I hate to see a valuable tool in our arsenal against
performance-loss to be discarded just because current IPsec AH
technology (itself frequently denigrated) does not yet provide the
exact semantics we need.  It would be different if we absolutely had
no other solution, but the authentication data suboption for the
...-14 Binding Update does solve the problem, and maybe in a way
that is better than using AH.

> This could be done by definition a new extension header called

Agreed that one could define new extension headers, but then I
don't see why that is better than what we've already done.
The devil is in the details, and who's to say that a year from
now we wouldn't still be bogged down in the new details of the
devil we didn't know yet?

Furthermore, the current Binding Update is a simple upgrade to
existing implementations.  This should be given due consideration.

It seems to me that going forward with what we have, with the
appropriate changes as have been noted over the last few weeks,
is a minimum energy and yet very effective solution.  I think that
is a lot better than assigning a heavy weighting factor towards
satisfying IPsec AH constraints which seem to be themselves
evolving and undergoing clarifications.

Regards,
Charlie P.

   Note that links with low bandwidth are fairly
   likely to want to use CRTP/ROHC themselves, so the
   actual cost of the IP6 header should be close to
   nil since it is almost completely compressible.
   This has the nice property that hops that care,
   can choose. Hops that don't don't. Also, you're
   proposal for layer two blocking applies equally
   well for intermediate/far end as well. Indeed,
   the way that DOCSIS modems work with concatenation
   (ie L2 blocking), having serveral packets in the queue
   at the same time is all that is required to cause the
   modem to ask for a larger transmission slot. This
   is a *much* larger win than any particular L4+
   packet piggybacking on another L3 packet, and is
   *far* less complex.

   Right, and the same goes for intserv flows. Worse is 
   that when you have an L2 CBR QoS class on a shared
   media, all of the schemes I know of rely on some sort
   of TDM like multiplexing where you get a fixed slot
   sized allocation to send your data ever so many
   milliseconds. Variations on this theme abound but
   they all rely on the property that you minimize your
   slots to the minimum so as to not waste lots of
   bandwidth. In this case (and I think it's very pertinent
   to wireless -- a shared media), piggybacking is either
   a non-starter, or detrimental if you decide to carve
   out slots big enough to carry the occassional BU.

   That's not completely true: if there is a requirement
   that *all* receivers accept piggybacking, then they
   share the burden. 

 > Seriously, you should piggyback only if you think it's worth the effort.

   I think we have an inversion of priorities going on
   here (and throughout the rest of the IETF, for that
   matter). The question should not be framed as
   if it's not a big deal, throw it in, it should
   be framed as why do we absolutely, positively
   _have_ to have this feature. The net is getting
   far too complicated, and the law of unintended
   consequences brought to the fore far too often.

   It's already been shown that there's a great
   deal of possibility for unintended consequences
   with piggybacking -- consequences I'll add
   which are quite possible regardless of whether
   IPsec is used or not. Unless somebody can show
   some concrete wins which cannot be achieved in
   any other way than L3 piggybacking, we should
   be prudent and defer that discussion for
   another day when we know more.

Only if the IPv6 header is part of a flow. For occasional signaling messages
there is likely to be no header compression at all.

Anyway, I'd like we have a conclusive end to the piggybacking discussion. So
far we know that with IPsec protection of BUs piggybacking is likely not
possible because of SPD lookup issues at recipients. If the BU specific
security solution is adopted, there seems to be no harm from the
piggybacking at the recipient.

This issue is likely not a determining factor for choosing the BU security
solution. Anyway, when we have a solution for the BU protection, the
implications for piggybacking should be documented.

Erik,

I have wanted to find out if piggybacking transport messages with Mobile BUs
is possible with no cost to the recipient. If any standardization activity
(other than some very easy stuff with Mobile IPv6 itself) would be needed to
allow piggybacking, let's just forget about it.

Michael,

As long as Mobile IPv6 is implemented in the L3 (IP option) headers, there
is nothing extra receivers need to do to *accept* piggybacking, it just
falls out naturally. Actually, you need more text in the spec to disallow
piggybacking. And if this is done, why to keep Mobile IPv6 at L3?

(Kernel/user space considerations should be out of scope for IETF)

It seems that IF IPsec is used to protect the BU, BU would really need to be
implemented as a transport protocol, or on top of some existing transport
protocol. In this case piggybacking would indeed require some additional
support (ref. Erik's recent mail), which I do not support.

On the other hand, if the mechanism in draft -14 is used for BU protection,
piggybacking falls out naturally again.

Actually the discussion should be about BU piggybacking in the e.g. TCP
packet, not the other way around. This way it is easy to see that DSCP, flow
label, etc. should NOT be changed by inclusion of the BU.

If the BU needs some specific diffserv treatment, then it should be sent out
by itself.

hi,

whats are the PMTU issues? you check the data packet. if you 
can add the BU option to the packet without exceeding the
PMTU, you piggyback. otherwise you dont. you send the BU
as a separate packet. only the sender has to do this check.

its not an issue for ROHC either, we have an implementation 
here. when ROHC comes across a packet bigger than what it 
is supposed to be, it skips compressing this particular 
packet. and this packet is received in the clear. we do 
exactly this. we have run tests with a simple RTP 
application. the typical packet in the data stream 
(that is being compressed in our experiment) is 
(IPv6 header + home address option + UDP header + 
RTP header + payload). if a packet received by the 
compression engine is bigger  than this, we skip 
compression on this packet. i dont know whats the big 
deal. it works. somebody please correct me if i am 
wrong.

Hi folks,

    we've received this feedback from the IESG on the MIER draft.
Please provide comments, especially on the first set of options.

Phil


--------------------
General comment. This ID seems to be of rather limited usefulness as a
standalone RFC. Is it really needed? This document seems to update RFC
2002, but is informational. This can be remedied by:

  - making this standards track (seems overkill, since it doesn't
    actually define an option, and hence, doesn't define anything
    anyone needs to implement, from what I can tell)
  - merge it in with 2002bis (which is being revised right now anyway)
  - merge this document with GNAI, since the GNAI document is a
    specific case where use of MIER might make sense. 
  - take out the MUST/SHOULDs and make it clear that this document is
    only proposing an approach to encoding options, and that future
    options writers should consider the issues raised when designing
    their options. NOte: if this approach is used, other documents
    (e.g., draft-ietf-mobileip-gnaie-04.txt) shouldn't have normative
    references to this document. At present, gnai appears to do just
    that.

For example:

> MIER describes a new extension 
>     structure to Mobile IP to make the extensions far more 
>     extensible.     

Could be rewritten as:

     MIER describes a way of encoding extensions that make it possible
     to conserve MIP options in some cases. Authors of future options
     should consider the issues raised in this document when designing
     new options.

There are several other places in the document where the langauge
could be toned down and made more neutral.

There is an alternate approach, one that seems to be working in
practice, and has other benefits. Don't allow IANA to assign options
until there is significant support for an option, i.e, via something
like "IETF consensus" [RFC 2434].  This approach also has the
advantage that it discourages the use of many options anyway, a
generaly desirable feature.  Usage of many options tends to negatively
impact interoperability.

Finally, looking at the IANA pages, it does not appear that options
are being used at a significant rate and that exhaustion of the space
is serious issue at present.

What  evidence is there that this is true at present?

Last sentence seems a bit too strong. Better to say "This may reduce
the usage of the type field in some cases".

SHOULD wording seems a bit strong. Encoding options in this way makes
sense in *some* cases, but it is not clear (to me) that it does so in
even the majority of cases. It would be sufficient to say option
writers should consider whether the structure defined here makes sense
when a new option is defined. Saying they SHOULD follow it is too
strong.

In the absence of a specific proposed need for a long option, I don't
see the value in defining it. Moreover, will MIP *ever* define any
more non-skippable options? Seems like doing so would be bad for
interoperating with the installed base (which won't understand any
newly defined options) . If that is the case, why define now? One can
always define a long format later should it be deemed necessary.

> 2.2.2 Short Extension Format

This format makes sense for some types of options (GNAI would seem to
be one). It does not make sense for others. For example, of the
existing MIP options, how many would it actually make sense to encode
in this fashion?

>     Sub-Type  is a unique number given to each member in the
>               aggregated type.  Sub-Type values between of 200 through
>               255 are reserved for future use and standardization.

The semantics of this field are dependent on the actual option; it
make no sense to say anything about reserving values in the general
case. It *might* make sense to say something like that in the case of
a specific option, but that would be the job of that specific option.

If this document is to be published as a standalone document:

Needs security considerations section.

Would be good to have an IANA considerations section; I would expect
it to say "There are no IANA Actions in this document", but that sort
of depends on resolution of the first point.

Charlie,

I assume the "Connectathon 2001 feedback on the Mobile IPv6 draft" will also be 
incorporated into this upcoming version. Right? I attached the original e-mail 
that details the issues which were both presented at IETF 50 and sent on the 
mailing list before.

Regards,

alper

Hi Charlie,

As you remember, I had given a presentation on the Mobile IP spec discussion we 
had at Connectathon 2001 at IETF50. And after the IETF meeting, I had sent the 
attached e-mail to this alias. Both presentation and the e-mail list the Mobile 
IPv6 spec issues we identifed during the Connectathon discussions.

Looking at the version 14 of the draft, I'm not able to see if any of this 
feedback made into the spec. Was there some technical reasons these are not 
incorporated into the draft?

Thanks Charlie,

alper

------------- Begin Forwarded Message -------------

For the second year Connectathon covered testing both Mobile IPv4 and Mobile 
IPv6 protocols. During the event, Mobile IP participants got together to discuss 
specification related issues. We came up with a number of them, which was 
outlined in the Connectathon presentation given by Carl Williams and myself at 
IETF 50.

Here's a recapture of Mobile IPv6 spec issues, for those who weren't at the IETF 
meeting (in case they have comments), and for the Mobile IPv6 draft authors to 
incorporate these into the next revision of the draft.

Cheers,

Alper Yegin


[1] Movement detection (section 10.4)

   ... Instead,
   a mobile node SHOULD consider receipt of any IPv6 packets from its
   current default router as an indication that it is still reachable
   from the router.  Both packets from the router's IP address and
   (IPv6) packets from its link-layer address (e.g., those forwarded but
   not originated by the router) SHOULD be considered.

Draft suggests that receiving packets from a node with same link-layer address 
and IP address as current default router means that mobile node is still 
attached to the same link.

BUT, different interfaces of the same router can have the same MAC address, 
therefore same link-local address but advertise different prefixes. In this 
case, mobile node would fail to detect movement if it only looks at the source 
MAC and IP address of packets.

Therefore draft should not suggest a match on source MAC address and IP address 
is sufficient.

[2] Sending binding acknowledgement for failed binding updates (section 5.2)

   Rather, the care-of address used by this node in
   sending the packet containing the Binding Acknowledgement MUST be
   copied from the care-of address received in the rejected Binding
   Update; ...

Draft says receiving node MUST send a binding acknowledgement for failed binding 
updates. It also says the care-of address MUST be copied from the failed binding 
update. 

BUT in the case care-of address is an invalid address such as multicast or 
unspecified address, such an address should not be used as the care-of address 
in binding acknowledgement.

Draft can be updated to say:
- If we have received this binding update as a home agent, we MUST not send a 
binding acknowledgement
- If we have received this binding update as a correspondent node, we MUST send 
the binding acknowledgement to home address (or not send at all?)

[3] Home agent address discovery request message (section 5.6)

Home Agent Address Discovery Request Message includes the Home Address field. 
This information is used by the receiving home agent to return the list of home 
agents matching the prefix of the mobile node.

This request packet is sent to "Mobile IPv6 Home-Agents" anycast address for its 
own home subnet prefix.

The receiving home agent can figure out the prefix of the mobile node just by 
looking at the destination address of the request packet. Therefore Home Address 
field in the request message is not needed in the draft.

[4] ICMPs can delete binding cache (section 8.8)

   If the correspondent node
   receives persistent ICMP Destination Unreachable messages after
   sending packets to a mobile node based on an entry in its Binding
   Cache, the correspondent node SHOULD delete this Binding Cache
   entry. 

The only way binding cache entries can be deleted is through binding updates and 
persistent ICMP unreachables. The former is required to be authenticated, but 
not the latter. The draft should have a proper warning about this, as 
unauthenticated ICMP messages can be used for DoS attacks.

[5] Deregistering a care-of address (section 8.5)

The draft says that binding acknowledgement MUST be sent using a routing header 
in the same way as any other packet sent to a mobile node using a care-of 
address.

BUT, what should be the care-of address used in the case this was a 
deregistration? Draft should specify that it MUST be the care-of address used in 
the triggering binding update. (similarly, draft already specifies that for 
failed binding updates case).

Hi all,

I sent email about the same subject to the list some weeks ago, but 
I guess it got lost in the mail storm which took place right before the
IETF meeting. 

Section 8.1 in MIPv6 draft 14 specifies that the home address option
should be processed only after all the other options in the same
destination option header are processed. In practice, this requirement
makes the receiver keep state between different options. I wonder, whether
the requirement is really worth the extra complexity it creates in all
IPv6 nodes.

If the ordering is required, it would IMHO be better to make the ordering
the responsibility of MN, which adds the options, i.e. "The home address
option MUST be added as the last destination option to the destination
option header ...". This would simplify the CN and would increase the
complexity of MN only marginally. 

Regards,

Henrik Petander

Part of the 2002 SCS Western Multiconference on Computer Simulation

	The objective of this conference is to serve as a forum for the
exchange of ideas among a talented group of international researchers on
advances in the design and performance analysis of communication networks
and distributed systems.  The conference emphasizes modeling, technical
advances and unique applications in the areas of high speed networking,
wireless communications, multimedia applications, computer architecture
and distributed, parallel and mobile computing systems. The structure of
the conference is designed to facilitate collegiality and continuity of
discussion among the conference speakers and attendees on the topics
covered during the week.

      Paper sessions are designed to promote discussion of concepts and
methodologies based on the presentation of results and innovative 
modeling, simulation or analysis techniques. The conference grew out of 
the need to improve the efficiency and quality of models of increasingly
complex networks and distributed systems. In addition to the technical
sessions, the conference includes an invited keynote speaker, and there
will be vendor presentations and exhibits arranged in conjunction with the
2002 SCS Western Simulation Multiconference (WMC). 

	Original, high-quality technical papers, addressing significant
aspects of the design, modeling, or performance analysis of communication
networks and distributed systems are solicited for review, possible
presentation and subsequent publication in the conference proceedings. 
Papers that include well-conceived or innovative simulation modeling
techniques with strong results and analysis are especially sought.

Papers are solicited from not limited to the following topics:

	* Performance Modeling and Analysis 	
	* Mobile and Nomadic Computing 
	* Distributed and Wireless Multimedia Systems  
	* QoS Support for Wireless Ad Hoc Network Applications

Hi,

	I was wondering if anyone can provide information on how GGSN
currently attaches to the Internet. How this is currently done. Is there
just a gateway between GGSN and the IP-backbone? If that is the case, how
are functions such as inter-GGSN mobility management functions performed?
Thanks for any information.

Sharif.

hi,
    correct me if i am wrong, i think GGSN is not directly connected to the
IP-backbone.  it is connected via an operator network to the Edge router
(gateway).
    once the mobile terminal is roamed to another network, SGSN will check
the MT's id.  the MT can either use the home GGSN or visited GGSN to route
the packets to their destinations...
    Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN), which consists of SGSN and GGSN, are
interconnected by Inter-PLMN backbone network.  it utilizes the GPRS
Tunneling Protocol (GTP) to handle the global mobility.  but again, the MT
can use both Home or Visit PLMN (HPLMN or VPLMN).
    Hope this will help....

Hugh

Hi,

	I was wondering if anyone can provide information on how GGSN
currently attaches to the Internet. How this is currently done. Is there
just a gateway between GGSN and the IP-backbone? If that is the case, how
are functions such as inter-GGSN mobility management functions performed?
Thanks for any information.

Sharif.

Do you have a place to recommend taking this question?  Does anyone
else?  That would be helpful to this person and others who have an
interest in the deployment of GPRS.

Hi Debi,

   the 3gpp community also has mailing lists (http://www.3gpp.org) although
one
doesn't often see these kinds of questions on the list.  But I'd investigate
there
and see whether someone on those lists can help you out.

Phil

Hi All,

In 'draft-ietf-mobileip-gen-key-00.txt', we are requesting that key
exchange be allowed to be unsolicited.  Specifically, we are
requesting that 'Key Reply' messages and 'Key Request' messages be
allowed to be sent in either an RRQ or an RPY, and a statement be
added to the draft.

The original text in -00 version was vague enough to be interpreted as
above.  However, new text was added in the Introduction in the latest
revision that explicity states a restriction.  We would like this
restriction removed, and more flexible text added to support
unsolicited key exchange.

As per procedure, we would like to gauge the views of the WG in this
matter, so that the authors may include our request.

Thanks,
Madhavi

	=> The SA2 mailing list (www.3gpp.org) is the right place
	for this. FWIW, the GGSN is like a default router for 
	IPv6 hosts and it can connect directly to the Internet. 
	The host never changes GGSNs within the UMTS
	network so never gets a new address.

Hi,
Can someone tell me where can I find information on Application
Modelling Statistics. Basically, information on audio, video, GSM, UMTS,
Web Browsing etc related to interarrival time, packet size, bit
rate...etc.
Thanks
Indran

   I would assume that hosts who send BU's would likely
   have a flow already established. BU's, after all, are
   optimizations, and the MN should probably be judicious
   about only sending BU's to active flows if it is bandwidth
   constrained.

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		: Requirements of a QoS Solution for Mobile IP
	Author(s)	: H. Chaskar
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mobileip-qos-requirements-01.txt
	Pages		: 7
	Date		: 24-Aug-01
	
Mobile IP protocol ensures correct routing of packets to mobile
node as the mobile node changes its point of attachment with the
Internet. However, it is also required to provide proper QoS
forwarding treatment to mobile node's packet stream at the
intermediate nodes in the network, so that QoS-sensitive IP
services can be supported over Mobile IP. This document describes
requirements of an IP QoS mechanism for its satisfactory operation
with Mobile IP.

Hi folks,

   here is the complete feedback from the IESG on this document.
Ying has already seen some of it and made some editorial updates, but the
document is receiving serious scrutiny as you can see from the
first three paragraphs.  The IESG is trying to determine what
exactly to do with this document.

   What we've decided to do as a working group is to forward this
as an Informational RFC from the WG.  Should we continue this course?
If so, are the suggested changes agreeable?

Alternatives would be to publish this as an individual contribution
for an Informational RFC if it is agreed that although this reuses
Mobile IP messages it has little to do with Mobile IP otherwise and
is of very limited application, or to realize that the spec is
published elsewhere (in the cdma2000 standards suite) and there is
little purpose of having the IETF publish such a doc.

   
Phil



--------------------------------

General: does this document really need to be published as an RFC? It
seems to be addressing a narrow problem that is of little interest to
most MIP implementations. It is also a rather ugly solution, one that
I suspect the MIP WG had no input on. Was this presented as a
completed document before it was made a WG document?

Also, why isn't this a Standards Track document? I suspect the answer
is because it is really not a modification of MIP supported by the
WG. Rather it is documenting something 3GPP2 did, but that cannot be
changed at this point. Is this the case? If so, I could see publishing
this as an informationl RFC, but only if it is modified as outlined
below.

Has this document already been published elsewhere? If so, does it
need to be published as an RFC as well?

>          Mobile IP Based Micro Mobility Management Protocol in 
>                  The Third Generation Wireless Network 

Change title to make clear that this applies only to cdma2000
networks. 

Indeed, based on comments below, it might be good to also change the
title to not suggest that this is some sort of general purpose MIP
protocol. It is clearly not.

Too many authors listed on page one. Please move list of authors to
acknowledgment section and only list the editor on the first page.

Add a paragraph or two that provide context for why this is being
published, and how it relates to MIP. In particular, this uses
different UDP ports than MIP (so would not seem to be MIP at all!). In
other words, an applicability statement of sorts, to make it clear
that this is of limited interest to most folks.

Finally, calling this an extension to MIP is somewhat of a
stretch. For starters, it uses a different UDP port number. That alone
would make it a different protocol in most people's eyes. This is a
rather ugly hack, IMO. It uses a different port number, yet uses many
of the same MIP message types, though augmented in some cases. To make
matters worse, it appears to use (for example) apparently unused bits
in existing MIP messages (i.e, the 'r' and 'x' bits in Registration
Requests). 2002-bis says for the 'r' bit:

>      r        Sent as zero; ignored on reception.  SHOULD NOT be
>               allocated for any other uses.

So its clearly infringing on MIP as well.

One *could* make the argument that because this document uses a
different port number, MIP doesn't need to assign the code points that
are implied here. There should be no conflict since MIP messages go to
the MIP port, and the messages in this document go to a different
port. But I would guess that this would cause problems for some
existing implementations that have not made a clean distinction
between MIP proper, and the extensions defined in this document . :-(

Might help to point out that this is all done transparently to the
client/mobile node, and is something that is done between the RNN and
FA. This is a key point, as it means the document is probably not of
relevance to most MIP implementations.

Also, the wording doesn't really seem right. Does this draft really
"propose a protocol for achieving" ... link-layer connectivity between
the MN and FA? Can one run ARP when this protocol is employed? Can one
send arbitrary L2 packets? Or is it in fact limited to tunneling IP
packets?

Is "interface" the right terminology here? Seems like if the RNN and
PDSN are in separate boxes, this is a "protocol". Is this a
terminology mismatch between the IETF and 3GPP2?

Again, I find the terminology "interface" here to be confusing.

Also, I think it is misleading to call this "extensions to Mobile
IP". It isn't really extending what most people think of MIP (i.e, the
MN-HA-CN interactions). It is defining something specific that allows
the FA to not have to reside on the directly attached link. It might
be good to define some generic terminology that makes this more clear
at the start of the document. For an analogy, in PPP, the client dials
directily into the NAS and the NAS and PPP server are on the same
device. L2TP allows the NAS/PPP server functionality to be split into
two distinct parts, connected by a network. That is, the NAS tunnels
stuff to the PPP server (transparently from the client's
perspective). This seems to be a analagous type of thing (though the
details are of course very different).

Rather than using terminology such as "used for mobility management",
say "used for tunneling MIP messages" ... Personally, I find the term
"mobility management" to be almost meaningless. Seems like it could
mean anything to anyone.

Interestingly, Figure one shows a HA, but no FA. Yet all the previous
text talks about the FA, and not a HA.  Is this document about FA
intereactions , HA interactions, or both? This could be clarified.

The reuse of the mobile IP messages causes terminology confusion.
Those messages have terms like home address, home agent address, CoA, etc
which are meaningful in the MIP context.
This prototocol operates between a MIP MN and a MIP FA thus to be clear
it would make sense to actually replace the terminology used to describe the
message formats as follows:
Current			Actual
Home Address		Must be zero
Home Agent		PDSN address (which is a MIP FA)
Care of Address		RNN address

If those terminology changes are made then it is possible to describe
the interaction between the RP protocol and MIP without causing utter
confusion.

What kind of setup? to HA, FA, or either? Or is this an L2 connection?

There are some formatting problems with the picture in 4.2 (tabs?).

This is really unfortunate. It appears that IANA was never consulted
about the use of some of these numbers; they were just used. This is
wrong. The idea that one can go to the IANA web pages, look for an
unused  number, and then assume IANA will assign it a year later is
really bad. What happens when 3 different sets of people do this and
chose the same number? And the IANA (which knows nothing of the three
uses) assigns the same value for an RFC that is just being issued?

This section is also in the wrong format for an RFC. First, IANA
should review this section and report back whether they are able and
willing to make the assignments as requested (they may not be able
to). If they can, the text should simply state things like "IANA has
assigned", as opposed to "IANA SHOULD assign". I.e, think about what
the document should read like as an RFC.

>    The well-known UDP port number 699 used for the Registration Request

The IANA page says 699 belongs to:

accessnetwork   699/tcp    Access Network
accessnetwork   699/udp    Access Network
#                          Yingchun Xu <Yingchun_Xu@3com.com>

Somewhat surprisingly, the document doesn't use the term "access
network". IANA should update the web page (presumably) to reference
this document. Also, would it make sense to mention the name
"accessnetwork" in the document, or to change this to something like
"cdma2000
access network?"

It would be good in the IANA considerations section to
point out that "IANA has assigned port 699 for the purposed described
in this document" (or something like that). That will ensure that IANA
updates its web page when the RFC gets issues to point to the RFC.


Also, there is a question/comment in regards to the Registration
Reply/Update and Acknowledge secion.  The question arose as to what
happens when a reply/update/acknowledge is expected but not received?
(Is the specified elsewhere?  mobileip?) Since this document isn't
*really* MIP, but a separate protocol, it would seem like it needs to
say when retransmissions are needed, etc.

Hi,

It's an interesting draft.
Actually we submitted an I-D for fast handoff in MIPv4 last November with
the idea of using the neighboring FA information.
Unfortunately the I-D does not exist in the archive any more but it is
available at
http://www.ctr.columbia.edu/~eunsoo/paper/draft-shim-mobileip-neighbor-00.tx
t.
The neighbor FA in our draft is the PAAR described in your draft.
The section 2 (Neighbor FA Information) describes a mechanism that each FA
(AR in MIPv6) discovers its neighboring FAs (PAARs). It is a simple
mechanism where each MN reports to the new FA (AR) of its old FA(AR) and
then the new FA learns about the old FA as one of its neighbor FAs. Also the
new FA informs the old FA of itself. Thus two FAs get to know each other.
After a certain transition period, a FA gets to know its all neighbor FAs.
It is a dynamic and distributed algorithm.

We believe our neighbor FA discovery mechanism can be a solution for the
problem of identifying the candidate ARs.

Thanks.

Eunsoo

Discovery


I'm resending the draft to the mailing list as I did not see it appear
in the  archives. Sorry if you receive multiple copies.
BRs,
Govind.

Abstract:
Handoff in IP mobility protocols involves moving a mobile node's
Layer 3 routing reachability information from one access router to
another, before or after the mobile node has established a Layer 2
connection with the radio access point that is covered by the new
access router. In addition, other context information about the
mobile node's packet session may be transferred from the old access
router to the new one, in order to minimize the service disruption
during the handoff process. While the exact details of how this is
accomplished vary depending on the IP mobility and seamless handoff
protocols, one common thread required for seamless handoffs is
identifying the candidate access routers for the mobile node's
handoff. When a collection of candidates has been identified, an
algorithm is run to determine the target access router, and this
router becomes the target of handoff at Layer 3. This document
presents a problem statement describing issues involved in designing
a candidate access router discovery protocol. The document does not
discuss the algorithm by which the actual target router is
identified, nor how the handoff to the target is achieved.



Comments are welcome.

Best Regards,
Govind.

Thanks, Alex, for taking the time to review this.  (Some comments
inline)

We would like to encourage feedback from the WG as a whole.  The
security ADs have indicated this is a good start.  Does this reflect
what the working group believes the requirements to be?

Thanks,
Phil

This seems like a worthwhile scenario description to add since the MIPv6
draft
already has text for protecting against a malicious binding ack.  Could
you produce proposed requirement text, please?

This seems like a useful clarification to me.

When re-reading it I realize that it's poorly formulated, I would
prefer the following:

   Threat B.5:

   By being able to passively monitor the traffic, the attacker could
   learn about the CNs or HA that the MN is communicating with and
   also determine to which CNs or HA the MN is sending BUs.  The
   attacker could thus synchronize with the MN such that when MN sends
   a BU then attacker replies to MN with a fake Binding Acknowledgment
   different than the true Binding Acknowledgment (Status, Lifetime or
   Refresh fields).

   Effect B.5:

   This can lead to (1) MN sends unnecessary BU's (subject to rate
   limiting of sending BU's) or (2) MN doesn't send a BU that is
   necessary.  As further effects of (2) unnecessary triangular
   routing takes place or MN is not reachable at all.

   Requirement B.5:

   Upon receiving a packet carrying a Binding Acknowledgement, a
   mobile node MUST ensure it trusts the sender of that Binding
   Acknowledgment.  Alternatively, the Binding Acknowledgment message
   could be removed from specification so that attacker can't forge
   it.  [I'm not really proposing it, just to say that many things can
   be proposed if we don't have a statement "minimal modifs to Mobile
   IPv6" at the beginning of draft-team].

Moving MIPv4 to draft standard - Charles Perkins
================================================
Charlie Perkins provided current status and reasoning of why RFC2002
should move toward draft standards from its current status as proposed
standards. He mentioned that multiple interoperability tests have been
performed and there has been significant deployment exist today. The
following implemented options were pointed out: 
- 'R' bit in the agent advertisement => may be superseded by AAA work
- Prefix length extension in agent advertisement => never implemented
  and not interoperated 
- 'S' bit in registration request message => haven't shown
  interoperability, refers to simultaneous registration with separate
  COAs 
As per 2002Bis-o6 draft, Mobile IP implementations should include
HMAC-MD5 as one of the additional authentication algorithms. This
algorithm is used for producing and verifying the authentication data
in Mobile IP registration messages. If the requirement of using
HMAC-MD5 is mandated, it may take six more months before draft moves
for the last call. He insisted that the working group should influence
this decision. The alternative suggested was to remove this portion
from the 2002Bis draft and progress the draft for the proposed
standards. It was pointed out by Thomas Narten that it is not required
to have implementation of HMAC-MD5 in order to progress toward
proposed standards. In the end it was decided that the decision would
be taken based on the further WG mailing list discussion. 

Mobile IP v6 security update - Phil Roberts
===========================================

The discussion was based on MIPv6 protocol and the requirements for a
security solution discussed in draft
draft-team-mobileip-mipv6-sec-reqts-00.txt. It was mentioned by Raj
that the draft has an approval from security ADs and pointed out
a couple of outstanding items like implementation and usage of
IPSec. The current goal is to progress MIPv6 draft to PS by the end of
year
2001.  
The current proposals that specify alternative solutions for the
binding update problem are:
- draft-thomas-mobileip-ha-cookies-00.txt
- draft-perkins-bake-01.txt
- draft-montenegro-sucv-01.txt
The intent is to have an agreed upon solution that is acceptable to
the security area directors and meets the requirements specified in
the requirements I-D.

Further discussion lead to whether Routing Optimization should be a
part of this draft and its impact on 3GPP2 work. 

Mobile IP v6 other changes - Charles Perkins
============================================

Charlie brought up the issue related to authentication data passed with
a
binding update destination option. The working group comments received
on this topic were that it is currently unclear in the draft on how
IPSec can be used and how to handle potential IPSec problems. Also the
issue with piggybacking IPSec on binding update data is still
open. The further discussions on ESP vs AH may be continue on the
mailing list. It seems home agent discovery may need some more work
but other than this, the draft may be ready for the WG last call. 

Low Latency Handover - Karim El-Malki
=====================================

Short update of the draft-ietf-mobileip-lowlatency-handoffs-v4-01.txt
presented by Karim. It seems draft discusses mainly three handoff
techniques, pre-registration, post-registration and combined of the
above two. This draft is completed and may be ready for the last WG
call. The discussion lead toward using trigger defined from
mayfolks-l2-trigger draft rather than defining separate subset
specific to this work. Co-chair pointed out that by doing this, there
might be a problem of introducing dependency. No decision was made in
the meeting on this issue. 

Fast Handover - Gopal Dometty
=============================

Gopal presented updates on draft-ietf-mobileip-fast-mipv6-01.txt. As
per this draft, the mobile node can initiate a handover while it still
has L2 connectivity to the current access router and about to move to
a new access router. It seems there are some minor editorial changes
made to this draft. He claimed that L2 and L3 are decoupled. Pat
pointed out that access point is nothing but the foreign agent and
hence it will have L3 address. Gopal pointed out that L3 information
is generally obtained from L2. There is no agent advertisement
involved here and hence may reduce delay. Also old CoA is reused. 

BETH - James Kempf
===================

James provided brief overview of BETH. He mentioned that BETH defines
extension to the Fast Mobile IPv6 handover protocol described in
draft-ietf-mobileip-fastmipv6-01.txt that reduces the amount of L3
latency in Mobile IPv6 handover to zero. It also removes routing loop
problem. There were many questions raised by the group like how the
new AR detects when the MN has an operational new CoA and tunnel tear
down is started; bicasting is specified but the smoothing is not well
understood; this draft may be dealing with rare cases only; for
certain type of radio links the solution provided by this draft may
not work etc. 

The proposed plan is to incorporate BETH into the FMIPv6 specification
as another way for achieving fast handoff. The scheme currently
existing in the low-latency (v4) will also be aligned with the BETh
proposal. 

FMIPv6 Implementation experience report - Rajeev Koodli
=======================================================

Rajeev provided brief summery of FMIPv6 implementation
experience. Handovers are all network initiated using UNIX based
router, LINUX MN on 11 Mbps WLAN. The following issues were identified 

- What destination address to use in the F-BU? It was confirmed by
  group that global IP address should be used instead of local address
  as suggested by current specifications 
- Creating binding cache entry on previous access router (after
  receiving Hack and after sending F-Back to the old link). It was
  concluded that this is implementation specific and doesn't really have
  any protocol impact. 
- What source address to use when sending F-BU from newer AR?
- Issues may be related to sending of F-NA (including only one IP
  address suffices). The group provided comments that it is essential to
  know both Hack and F-Back. 
- When to change default router? There are two options proposed: after
  receiving proxy PA (may be not) or after actually attaching to the new
  link (the new AR). 

Handover Smoothing - Phil Roberts
=================================
 
Phil pointed out that smoothing is currently part of low latency draft
(draft-ietf-mobileip-lowlatency-handoffs-v4-01.txt) along with
simultaneous binding and currently it is not supported in FMIPv6. The
current proposal is to add handover smoothing to the FMIPv6 draft and
remove it from the low latency draft. The following comments/proposals
were received from the group 
- FMIPv6 and smoothing may be defined as optional
- Bicasting may be treated as implementation specific.
- Bicasting is a useful feature needed for handovers
- There may be lot more work involved in removing smoothing from the
  low latency draft 
- Bicasting is meant for achieving fast handovers and not necessarily
  for the handover smoothing 

Discussion on smoothing vs bicasting and buffering. It was determined
that smoothing has a larger scope than either bicasting and/or
buffering and should be considered as a separate work item. 
However for the fast handoff work a consensus call was done to
determine if bicasting should be included as part of the FMIPv6
specification. 
The final consensus was to move bicasting to a separate document for
both the v4 and v6 fast handoff drafts.

/////////////////
//  Session 2  //
/////////////////

August 7th, 2001 (1700-1800)
Reported by : Basavaraj Patil 

Consensus call for including bicasting in the fast handoff document
was not very clear at the previous meeting. Clarified the question
requiring consensus. The consensus call essentially was to see if
people wanted to see bicasting as another option within the fast
handoff specification. Consensus reached: Separate bicasting from fast
handoff. 

LMM Requirements - Carl Williams
================================
[draft-ietf-mobileip-lmm-requirements-00.txt]

Carl presented the major issues that have been raised on the Mobile IP
mailing list since the last IETF[50] w.r.t LMM. The draft with Carl as
the editor captures the requirements for an LMM solution. Discussion
focused around obtaining consensus on the requirements and also to
clarify the issues that have been previously discussed.
One major issue that continues to persist is the one dealing with the
levels of hierarchy. A long discussion on the pros and cons of single
vs multiple levels of hierarchy ensued.

Since there was no conclusion on levels of hierarchy, it was decided
that Carl would work with some of the interested people on this topic
to arrive at some consensus. This should be documented in the next
revision of the requirements document.

Mobile Network Suppport - Thierry Ernst
=======================================
[draft-ernst-mobileip-monetv6-00.txt]

Thierry Ernst presented the draft on support for mobile networks and
routers for IPv6 using Mobile IPv6. 
Obviously this topic needs to be investigated more as it raised more
questions than answers at this time. Basavaraj mentioned that the work
does
fit into the Mobile IP WG as the charter does not limit the scope to
just mobile hosts. There were some concerns about stepping into MANET
boundaries. 
Erik Nordmark mentioned that the issue of authorization for mobile
networks is a hard problem to solve and hence suggested that more work
needs to be done in this area. 
Opinions on the need for this work being done in the MIP WG were
expressed by many people. 
Conclusion was that more work needs to be done in this area. This
draft is a good starting point and could be used to investigate the
issues raised by Thierry in his presentation.

Nat Support in Mobile IPv4 - Henrik Levkowetz
=============================================

A small group of WG members who are interested in having MIPv4 work in
networks using NATs met the previous day. Conclusion reached at this
meeting was that Mobile iPv4 does not currently work very well in a
NAT world and scenarios where support for MIPv4 with NATs is required
were discussed.
Henrik presented the conclusions of the discussion and the need for
a solution for Mobile IPv4 over NATs.

Most WG members agreed that this work is important for MIPv4
deployment. A discussion list will be setup to discuss the scenarios
and requirements for NAT support in MIPv4. The WG will make a decision
regarding the inclusion of supporting NATs as a WG item at a later
time [i.e after the scenarios and requirements draft are done].


Mobile IP Component Redundancy - Gopal Dometty
==============================================
[draft-subbarao-mobileip-redundancy-00.txt] 

This could not be presented due to a lack of time.

Other MIP issues - Basavaraj Patil
==================================

Discussion item was skipped due to a lack of time.

Basavaraj, thank you for the minutes, very useful.  Regarding
> Mobile IP v6 security update - Phil Roberts

the minutes mention three draft proposals:
 - draft-thomas-mobileip-ha-cookies-00.txt
 - draft-perkins-bake-01.txt
 - draft-montenegro-sucv-01.txt

IMHO, other drafts treat of same subject:

draft-le-mobileip-dh-00.txt
draft-mkhalil-mobileip-ipv6-sap-02.txt
draft-roe-mobileip-updateauth-00.txt

Hi Hemant,

Nice to see the new version. One comment:

> 3.3.2. Interactions with link-layer support for QoS...
It's a problem imposeded by the wireless link (other than MIP itself)
as I understand. How about treating it as one of the hereterious 
cases and moving to 3.2.2?

Hi Charlie,

Here are some comments I have on draft -14.


Section 6.4 (HA info option)

 The last paragraph starts:

  "If both the Home Agent Preference and Home Agent Lifetime are set
   to their default values specified above..."

 but a default value for Home Agent Lifetime is never discussed.
 Maybe it should be the same as the Router Lifetime value that
 would be sent in an RA?


Section 6.5 (Router advert changes)

 Why has the MinRtrADvInterval shrunk to 0.05 seconds from 0.5 seconds?


Section 8.2 (Recieving BUs)

 This still has the old wording in bullet #4 that:

  "The Sequence Number field in the Binding Update option is greater
   than the Sequence Number received in the previous Binding Update
   for this home address, if any. ..."

  "Any Binding Update not satisfying all of these tests MUST be
   silently ignored..."

 Section 5.2 has the correct wording that should be put here:

  "If the mobile node sends a sequence number which is not greater than
   the sequence number from the last successful Binding Update, then the
   home agent MUST send back a Binding Acknowledgement with status code
   141, and the last accepted sequence number in the Sequence Number
   field of the Binding Acknowledgement."


Section 8.5 (Sending BAs)

 The second paragraph mentions IPsec:

  "The packet in which the Binding Acknowledgement is returned MUST meet
   the specific IPsec requirements for Binding Acknowledgements..."
 
 it should maybe say "security".


Thanks,

-Brian

Something in appendix B of version 4 of the HMIP draft is not clear to me.  The paragraph directly under figure B.1 states:

"Hence, it may not be possible to use addresses
   based on PREFIX_A as source addresses for the MNs."

I agree PREFIX_A will not work as a source address as it would likely be dropped at AR1 due to ingress filtering.  However, won't a source with PREFIX_B also be dropped (this time by the MR) due to the same ingress filtering reasons?  Afterall, MR's PREFIX_A interface would not expect to see packets with PREFIX_B as a source (but this is what is being done in the extended mode with mobile routers).  I assume I am missing something.  Does the MR not pefrom ingress filtering in this scenario?  Does it look at the home address option to verify it is in fact topologically correct?

Please clarify.

Thanks,

Adam

The only problem being if some future option(s) must be *last* as well.
In that case, splitting into 2 (or more) destination option headers may be the
solution, is that feasible?

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		: Generalized Key Distribution Extensions for Mobile IP
	Author(s)	: C. Perkins, P. Calhoun
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mobileip-gen-key-01.txt
	Pages		: 8
	Date		: 28-Aug-01
	
Recent proposals have suggested several kinds of key extensions for
Mobile IP registration messages.  These keys may be used between
the mobile node and mobility agents, or between the mobility agents
themselves.  This document specifies generalized extension formats
that can be useful for several kinds of key distributions.  Each
generalized extension format will have subtypes which indicate the
specific format for the key distribution data.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username
"anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in,
type "cd internet-drafts" and then

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

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-mobileip-gen-key-01.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.

However, won't a source with PREFIX_B also be dropped (this time by the MR) due to the same ingress filtering reasons?  Afterall, MR's PREFIX_A interface would not expect to see packets with PREFIX_B as a source (but this is what is being done in the extended mode with mobile routers).  I assume I am missing something.  Does the MR not pefrom ingress filtering in this scenario?  Does it look at the home address option to verify it is in fact topologically correct?
> 
	=> Thanks for catching that despite a cryptic figure (we'll fix that figure
	in the next revision). 
	There are different ways we can handle this:

	1. The MR is aware of the mobility scenario (it does know 
	    what's happening because it sets theT flag in the 
	    MAP option) so it doesn't ingress filter on the PREFIX_B address

	2. We make sure that the MN uses RCoA (from the further MAP) 
	    as a source and the MR MUST NOT ingress filter that prefix.

	3. The MR does the same as 1 and tunnels outgoing packets to the 
	    further MAP (fixed MAP). 

	I prefer 3 andwould try to avoid 1 as much as possible. 
	What do you think ?

Hi Xiaoming:

All the requirements in this draft are those imposed by MIP. The 
wireless-link requirement is included there because practically all the 
deployment of MIP will be for nodes connected by wireless links to the 
Internet.

There is one problem moving this requirement to heterogeneity section. It is 
that the heterogeneity of wireless link layers is more or less transparent 
to IP layer. The heterogeneity section contains the requirements imposed due 
to heterogeneity at IP-layer such as different IP-QoS mechanisms.

Hemant

Hello Henrik

> Section 8.1 in MIPv6 draft 14 specifies that the home address option
> should be processed only after all the other options in the same
> destination option header are processed. In practice, this requirement
> makes the receiver keep state between different options. I wonder, whether

The intention was to make sure that processing the home address
option would cause the mobile node's home address to be delivered
to the higher level protocols at the correspondent node, while still
allowing the care-of address to be visible at the IP layer.  The
restriction about when the processing occurs should probably be
removed, because it does not matter how an implementation ensures
the correct property of the home address option (as long as it does
ensure it).  Currently, the care-of address doesn't serve any
purpose past this point, and would not have to be maintained by
the implementation after processing at the network layer.


Regards,
Charlie P.

Hi Hemant,

Yes, it'll result in the characteristics difference for wireless links
during handoffs. However IMO a IP-QoS mechanism itself should take such
a 
link (wireless) into consideration - if we want to include such link 
characteristics in any QoS solution. The difficulty might lie when there 
are no such parameters (e.g., MN in wired link) before handoff while 
after handoff such parameters are introduced in the new path.

> There is one problem moving this requirement to heterogeneity section. It is

I agree current description 3.2.2 only concerns with difference of
various 
IP-layer QoS mechanisms, but could we extend it a broader way? 

BTW, the quoted "(best current practices)" in 3.2.2 seems unclear to me.
Does it mean "or BCPs" or "from BCPs"?

Cheers,
Xiaoming

How could you merge FHO&HMIP when multiple MAPs are used? E.g., A MN 
may happen to run into another MAP domain. If CT is favorate, I think 
CT(oAR->nAR) is still more appropriate for a more general case.

	There are different ways we can handle this:

	1. The MR is aware of the mobility scenario (it does know 
	    what's happening because it sets theT flag in the 
	    MAP option) so it doesn't ingress filter on the PREFIX_B address

	2. We make sure that the MN uses RCoA (from the further MAP) 
	    as a source and the MR MUST NOT ingress filter that prefix.

	3. The MR does the same as 1 and tunnels outgoing packets to the 
	    further MAP (fixed MAP). 

	I prefer 3 andwould try to avoid 1 as much as possible. 
	What do you think ?

	Hesham


----
I agree option 1 should be avoided.  The problem I have with both options 2) and 3) is that they both assume their is a further MAP.  It is very possible I think that somebody might want to use the value-added ability of HMIP to support a mobile router/network, without deploying a full HMIP network.  I think the two should be able to stand alone.

Comment/question to the computation of the Authentication Data covering a Binding Update and a Binding Acknowledgement in draft -14.

According to section 4.4 in draft-14 the Authentication Data covering a Binding Updata MUST be 
computed over a bit string containing the following IP addresses:
Destination IP Address of the IPv6 header 
Care-of Address, in the Source IP Address of the IPv6 header 
Home Address, from the Home Address destination option
+ some more data

And the Authentication Data covering a Binding Acknowledgement MUST be
computed over a bit string containing the following IP addresses :
Destination IP Address of the IPv6 header 
Source IP Address of the IPv6 header 
+ some more data

First of all I suppose that what is meant is
the destination addresses of the IPv6 header as it appears at the receiver end (in line with the computation of authentication data in IP SEC)  !?
Since both the BU (in case the CN is mobile) and the BUAck might be send using a routing header this will be important to specify, I think.

Secondly, in the case where the CN is itself a mobile node, the source address of the IP header of the BuAck will be a CoA of the CN,
which really has nothing to do with the acknowledgement of a BU sent to the CN - wouldn't the appropriate address to cover here be the Home address
of the CN -  either appearing in the source address of the IP header or in the Home Address option ?

	=> I agree. However, the "further" MAP is only needed as a tunnel end point. 
	So to replace it you need to:

	1. Have an IP address for another router	(easily solved)

	2. That router has to trust you and forward your original packet that
	    wouldn't have gone through the ingress filter. This 
	    trust is implicit in the further MAP by virtue of the 
	    BU (I know this is questionable but some extensons 
	    can be made to allow this). 

	So the second point is not tricky to solve but it requires 
	a carrier. Having it as a further MAP allows the carrier to
	be a BU. 

	Of course you can also just reverse tunnel to the HA !
	This will solve it but for a price.

Hi,

	I wanted to solicit a response from anyone interested in working on:

	· Inter-Domain Mobility Management (mobility between two
administrative networks).

	This could be viewed as higher-level mobility management (sometimes
called "roaming").
	Solutions to this problem have ben presued in other organizations,
3GPP, but I am not certain 
	of anything being done in the IP-layer. 
	
	If anyone is interested I would be glad to discuss further, either
on the mailing-list, or off-line.

	Thanks.

	-Sharif.

Hello Charlie,

Thanks for the clarification.

Our implementation processes the destination options in order, but
maintains a pointer to the home address option now containing the CoA, so
we did not understand the purpose of the requirement.

I agree with you on this.

At IETF 51 in London, it was agreed to add the Handoff To Third (HTT)
to the POST-REGISTRATION part of the MIPv4 low latency handoff design.
The HTT allows a MN that is already receiving traffic via a tunnel
from an anchor FA to move to a new FA without receiving a new CoA.
It is necessary because the current design provides no support for
the case where a MN is moving so rapidly that it does not complete
L3 handover by the time it moves to a new FA. 

The authors of the draft have discussed this, and are not in agreement
about what level to incorporate HTT. In particular, should HTT be
MUST, SHOULD, or MAY?

In favor of MAY: We should keep the protocol as simple as possible.
This message is only required in certain restricted circumstances
that will not occur for every radio link protocol, and therefore
it should not be required unless the radio link protocol supports
rapid movement to a new FA.

In favor of MUST: In addition to fixing the abovementioned bug,
HTT also provides a new capability that is not available in
RFC 2002 nor with PRE-REGISTRATION, namely the ability of the MN
to choose when it should obtain a CoA based upon its traffic.
If the MN is receiving real time traffic, it may choose to
forgo L3 handoff until the real time stream is done, thereby 
avoiding the radio link traffic involved in MIP signalling. This
is similar to the BETH proposal for IPv6, which the WG agreed
to incorporate into the FMIPv6 draft.

The authors need working group guidance on this issue.

The MIPv4 low latency handoff draft specifies that when egress filtering
is on, the new FA needs to run a reverse tunnel in order to prevent
outgoing packets from the MN from getting dropped. This is required
for POST-REGISTRATION because it is fundamental to the protocol and
for PRE-REGISTRATION in case L3 handover does not complete prior
to L2 handover. Egress filtering causes packets to drop on the new
subnet in cases where there is no route optimization and
the home address is being used as the source address, and if route
optimization is in effect and the old CoA is being used, perhaps
temporarily, as the source address.

Note that if the new subnet is not doing egress filtering, no 
reverse tunnel is required.

The two possible places to which the tunnel could be run are:

1) The HA, as would be required at any FA where egress filtering
is on and the there is no route optimization.

2) The old FA, as is done in BETH for FMIPv6.

The authors are in general agreement that the tunnel should be run
to the HA. 

In favor of the old FA: If route optimization is in effect, the tunnel
must be run to the old FA because the source address on the MN's packets
will be on the old FA's subnet. If they are tunneled to the HA's subnet,
the ingress filter on the HA's subnet may drop them. In addition,
tunneling them to the HA will require a preregistration transaction
between the HA and the new FA, otherwise the HA is in danger of
dropping the packets because the new FA is not yet known. This
transaction will add to the latency of handover, in particular, because
the topological distance between the new FA and the HA is likely to
be longer than the distance between the old and new FAs.

In favor of the HA: Route optimization is not currently deployed, nor
does it look likely to be deployed any time in the near future. Should
route optimization be deployed, we can modify the protocol to allow
tunneling back to the old FA. The new FA will need to tunnel to the HA anyway 
when the MN performs L3 handover and obtains its new CoA. Since the old FA will 
be tunneling to the HA, tunneling to the old FA then to the HA is
less efficient than simply tunneling directly to the HA. In addition, tunneling 
to the HA is required for GRE due to the need for authentication, so tunneling 
to the  HA simplifes the protocol if it is used in all cases. The additional
amount of latency added by the preregistration should not be extreme,
and the FA can buffer outgoing packets until the registration reply
is received, or opportunistically send them to the HA in anticipation of
a successful preregistration.

The authors would like comment, particularly whether the working group
agrees with the authors' opinion that tunneling directly to the HA
is the right solution.

------------------------------

This is a comment that probably applies to lots of MIP
documents. Please define "security association" in the MIP context. In
IPsec terminology, for instance, it means something very
specific. I.e., keys, SPIs, etc., and works only between a pair of
nodes. Once an association exists, encrypted packets can be sent. No
further negotiation is needed. Also, one can have multiple (different
SAs between the same set of machines). This document says:

   node and its home agent.  When the mobile node shares a security
   association with its home AAA server, however, it is possible to use
   that security association to create derivative security associations
   between the mobile node and its home agent, and again between the

The MN talks to its HA, not a AAA server. So I'm not clear what is
meant by "shares a security association". From my perspective, it
seems like "security relationship" would be more accurate terminology.

Note that the above paragraph also talks about "security associations"
between the MN and HA. Here, the terminology  (I suspect) corresponds
more closely to the IPsec usage. But I'm not sure. 

General comment. This document is very loose about whether a MN is
talking to a FA/HA or a AAA server. This should be made explicitly
clear throughout. Indeed, my assumption is that conceptually, if not
in reality, a MN NEVER speaks to an AAA server directly. Rather, it
speaks MIP protocols with an HA/FA, and that HA/FA has a side
conversation with the AAA server. This should be made much more clear
throughout.

Throughout this section, it should be made explicitly clear *who* is
sending a message, and *to* *whom* the message is being sent. Also,
when someone processes an extension *who* is doing the
processing. This isn't clear from just reading the text.

Also, it might make sense to change the section heading to "overview"
rather than Scope, since it does seem like an overview. Assuming this
is an overview, I think it would help the reader if the text included
steps such as as "FA sends message to AAA server ..." "AAA server does
X and returns Y to the FA", "FA generates reply and sends to MN"... 
   
    2. If the mobile node does not have a Mobility Security Association
       with the foreign agent, it SHOULD include an MN-FA Key Request
       extension.

In what message, and sent to whom?

What is the RFC reference to the key request extension?

    3. Similarly, if the mobile node does not have a Mobility Security
       Association with the home agent, it MUST add an MN-HA Key Request
       extension.

In message sent to whom?

    4. If one or more Key Request extensions were added, the MN-AAA
       Authentication extension is added to the Registration Request.

Added by whom?
       
    5. At the time the information within the MN-AAA Authentication
       extension is verified by the AAA server, the AAA server also
       generates Key Material for the keys requested by the mobile node,
       and causes insertion of the Key Material fields along with the
       Registration Reply.

So there is an implied step here in which the FA exchanges messages
with its local AAA server? Would be good to explicitely say that here.

Is that AAA protocol already in place? What RFCs are used? I.e, is
there a potential normative reference problem buried here? (I suspect
the answer is no, but am not sure.)

    6. The respective AAA keys are distributed to the Home and Foreign
       Agent via the AAA protocol.

Where are the details of this described?

step 6b) FA sends a reply to the MN

I doubt the AAA server is sending messages to the MN. Isn't it the FA
that does this (i.e., it relays this info)? Text could be more
precise.

   Dynamic Mobility Security Associations shared between mobile nodes

What is a "Dynamic Mobility Security Association"? Is it different
than other types of security associations?

Note: IMO, it would be better to move the description formats of the
extensions here, rather than at the end. It is a bit confusing to talk
about the contents of packet fields prior to having shown the format
of the option with all of the fields together.

insert "extension" as indicated above? Also, better to say "contains
the procedure a FA/HA follows when creating ..." (or is the procedure
aimed at AAA servers?)
   
   The example that follows makes use of MD5 in prefix+suffix mode,
   whose support is mandatory in Mobile IP [11].  Other cryptographic
   functions, such as those listed in 3 MAY also be used.

Might be better to make HMAC-MD5 the example. Also, what is meant be
"listed in 3 MAY". Should that be "listed in [3] MAY"??

    1. The AAA server identifies the mobile node's via a
       ``node-address''.  If the Home Address field of the
       Registration Request is zero (0), the Mobile Node's NAI is used
       instead.

First sentence doesn't parse.

I'm confused by the description above in the sense that it implies
that the MN Registration Request is sent to a AAA server. I thought it
was sent to a FA.

Also, why use the term "node-address"? Don't you really mean the home
address? (the term node-address isn't defined anywhere). Maybe you
mean to say:

    1. The AAA server identifies the mobile node via a
       ``node-address''.  The node-address is taken from the Home
       Address field of the Registration Request, or the NAI, if the
       Home Address field is zero (0).

Note again how the text blurs the distinction between the FA and the
AAA server. Does the AAA server see the registration request? I would
think not. It sees information the FA sends to it, which includes
portions of the registration request. The document should really make
this clear throughout

>    2. The AAA server generates a random [5] value of at least 64 bits.

64 bits seems short. I'd like someone with security background to
comment on this. But I guess this is sent in the clear, so the length
may not matter?

    3. The AAA server inserts the random value into the Key extension in
       the ``Key Material'' field.

Presumably this field is part of a message or an extension within a
message. Which message or extension? Make explicit.

Note steps 1-3 are done on the server, steps 4-5 on the mobile
node. It might be good to make the more clear here, perhaps by having
subsections?

    4. The mobile node calculates

          key = MD5(AAA-key | Key Material | node-address | AAA-key)

what is AAA-key? Where does it come from? Ditto for "Key Material" How
does the mobile node know which AAA-key to use? Can there only be one
(I hope not...)

      Key Material
                 A random [5] value of at least 64 bits.

Keying material of only 64 bits? Would this pass security muster??

       FA SPI     The SPI for the Security Association to the FA that
                  the MN creates as a result of processing this extension.

It would be good to state explicitely state that this is the same
algorithm identifier as defined in XXX (section 3 doesn't seem to do
this either). This document doesn't say. I.e., this presumably points
to an existing name space managed by IANA. What is it? [hmm I later
see that this is a new name space.. see comment below.]

Shouldn't this be moved to the beginning of section 5. (e.g., as it is

Hmm. What are the above two sections about? The first sentence in each
seems redundent. Can't the remaining text just be put in the previous
sections that describe the extension?

Also, why is the ordering important? 

> 10. IANA Considerations

This document requests certain numbers be assigned. Is this required,
i.e., are their implementations that already use the numbers? This
section should really say TBD for any assignments that it  doesn't
care what the  actual value is, and let IANA pick. If it really does
care about the value, the text should suggest a certain value be used
and mention that the numbers are already in use by existing
implementations. That way, IANA has some context for deciding what to
do.

Can't you just leverage off an existing MIP name space (i.e, the one
used by other extensions?) rather than creating a new one?

The RTT on the preregistration request/reply could cause
a significant increase in latency on the handover (like, say, 60 ms if
I am in California and my HA is in New Jersey, or 160 ms if I am
in Minneapolis and my HA is in Germany), to say nothing of the packet 
getting dropped because it is sent UDP. The indicated
mitigating measures are relatively unattractive. Optimistically sending
the packets runs the risk of the HA dropping them if the preregistration
packet never got there, buffering them runs the risk of propagating
the latency and causing user perceptible artifacts in the real time stream.
One solution would be to deploy regional registration. This would
reduce the latency somewhat, but not eliminate it completely. In addition,
regional registration is currently not widely deployed and its prospects
are uncertain, whereas the need for low latency handoff is very acute
and the prospects for immediate deployment are fairly good.

Subject: [mobile-ip] Low Latency Issue: Where to Run the Reverse Tunnel?


The MIPv4 low latency handoff draft specifies that when egress filtering
is on, the new FA needs to run a reverse tunnel in order to prevent
outgoing packets from the MN from getting dropped. This is required
for POST-REGISTRATION because it is fundamental to the protocol and
for PRE-REGISTRATION in case L3 handover does not complete prior
to L2 handover. Egress filtering causes packets to drop on the new
subnet in cases where there is no route optimization and
the home address is being used as the source address, and if route
optimization is in effect and the old CoA is being used, perhaps
temporarily, as the source address.

Note that if the new subnet is not doing egress filtering, no 
reverse tunnel is required.

The two possible places to which the tunnel could be run are:

1) The HA, as would be required at any FA where egress filtering
is on and the there is no route optimization.

2) The old FA, as is done in BETH for FMIPv6.

The authors are in general agreement that the tunnel should be run
to the HA. 

In favor of the old FA: If route optimization is in effect, the tunnel
must be run to the old FA because the source address on the MN's packets
will be on the old FA's subnet. If they are tunneled to the HA's subnet,
the ingress filter on the HA's subnet may drop them. In addition,
tunneling them to the HA will require a preregistration transaction
between the HA and the new FA, otherwise the HA is in danger of
dropping the packets because the new FA is not yet known. This
transaction will add to the latency of handover, in particular, because
the topological distance between the new FA and the HA is likely to
be longer than the distance between the old and new FAs.

In favor of the HA: Route optimization is not currently deployed, nor
does it look likely to be deployed any time in the near future. Should
route optimization be deployed, we can modify the protocol to allow
tunneling back to the old FA. The new FA will need to tunnel to the HA
anyway 
when the MN performs L3 handover and obtains its new CoA. Since the old FA
will 
be tunneling to the HA, tunneling to the old FA then to the HA is
less efficient than simply tunneling directly to the HA. In addition,
tunneling 
to the HA is required for GRE due to the need for authentication, so
tunneling 
to the  HA simplifes the protocol if it is used in all cases. The additional
amount of latency added by the preregistration should not be extreme,
and the FA can buffer outgoing packets until the registration reply
is received, or opportunistically send them to the HA in anticipation of
a successful preregistration.

ajoy-> I do see some advantage of tunneling packets to HA via aFA.
If someone uses GRE tunnel between aFA and nFA, they can tunnel the
header compressed packets to oFA. I know this is not a Mobile/IP issue.
But do we want to limit the usability of Post Registration by proposing 
something which can minimize its use? If we allow tunneling via 
aFA, we may not need to transfer header compression state, until MN changes 
its care of address. In fact, as far as I know, 3GPP2 would like to
tunnel PPP frames from nFA to aFA using bi-directional edge tunnel.
The idea of sending IP packets from nFA to HA may provide optimum routing,
but it may limit the usability of Post Registration scheme. The end-to-end
saving in delay may not be significant in most of the cases. Any comments ?


The authors would like comment, particularly whether the working group
agrees with the authors' opinion that tunneling directly to the HA
is the right solution.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.


	Title		: Requirements to mobility while transitioning from IPv4
                          to IPv6
	Author(s)	: P. Engelstad
	Filename	: draft-engelstad-ngtrans-mobility-requirements-00.txt
	Pages		: 7
	Date		: 14-Aug-01
	
This document explores how layer-3 mobility can be provided to mobile
nodes that are subjects to and affected by the transition mechanisms
specified by the NGTRANS Working Group. It points out that the
combination of mobility and transition mechanisms might lead to
problems that will require a solution, and suggests requirements that
a solution should meet.

Hello James,

                            Perhaps the following paragraph, indicating
the context in which HTT is
applied, may support the use of "MUST".

                            "In case the link layer triggers, which are
required by the post-registration scheme,
to support the movement of the wireless end of the BET, are available,
then the HTT scheme
MUST be applied to avoid a context transfer from the aFA to the nFA for
delay-sensitive information."

Regards,
     Sebastian
