Looks quite bad from the DDoS reflection point of view.
If I am an attacker, able to spoof addresses, and
therefore subject to i-trace etc. (which is the
reason for the tagging), I can launch an easy but not
very good attack:

   1. I send one packet to the CN, with no
      HAO and src=HaO -> CN goes to no-tagging state.
      This packet may trigger i-trace, but maybe I
      can get somebody else to send the packet.

   2. I send a few packets, with HAO=HaO, to the CN.
      The CN replies to these, with dst=HaO.
      The replies are not tagged, since the CN is
      in no-tagging state, and therefore the
      replies do not reveal me through i-trace etc.

   3. Repeat the cycle.

The practical effect of this attack is that I
can make the probablity of i-trace etc revealing
smaller than it otherwise could be.  But this is
just one way of defeating the purpose of tagging,
there are probably more effective ones.

Again:  From the security point of view, it is
important that *no* packets that are replies to
any packet containing HAO leave the CN towards
the HoA, unless they contain the tag.  If we
make an intentional hole into tagging, somebody
will find a way to (mis)use it, sooner or later.

I do not like approaches that compromize existing
security for the sake of an optimization that may
or may not be videly used and that does not
necessarily bring that much benefit.  Considering
the complexity of processing unvHAOs, how likely
is that somebody implements unvHAO processing
but not RR?  RR requires no hard crypto, no
complicated states, and only 1.5 RTT.

Pekka,

I believe my point did not come clear from earlier mails.
I changed the topic to match the discussion.

The host identity duality with legacy is more involved than
meets the eye. At end of your first mail you seem to indicate
it would not be needed and multi-homing would solve the
other cases (MN risks it offering RR). These are valid
scenarios _when_ one can do that but in some cases one
cannot avoid needing to deal with knowing the duality.

My main point was that if this is the case, there is more
need for change than just the bit encoding itself. Blind
multihoming is not enough. DNS is a case. Legacy services
resolving to one address are in many places; mere multihoming
for the webserver case may call for either duplicating the
service or changing DNS to be bit-aware. In DNS you recognized
the issue, but I am afraid this is not the only place the
issue causes changes. URLs may have addresses, some
other protocols map identities to addresses besides DNS
or transfer these identities so that some content becomes
non-interoperable with legacy nodes.

This note seems to indicate I did not manage to describe
the core issue. If the legacy support is a non-goal then what
you say here is fine. But it's not always just for the
MN to decide. Identity encoding itself, such as the bit method,
causes its own legacy worries that one may not just ignore.
Any time identity encoding or management provides one address
only or blindly, it is a problem (more later).

Here it seems some of my point was understood, but the
problem is a bit deeper than DNS, which was only an example.
Any protocol which maps to some identity to one IP address
or one address at a time, or blindly hands out IP address for
home address use may need an update. These include stateful
autoconfiguration and other managed address allocations where
managing entity needs to know if MN supports a non-RR method
if it hands out addresses for new and old MNs.

E.g., assume a legacy MN gets its HoA from a home link
DHCP, or some managed link or layer, the address given to MN
may be useless unless it supports the new method. A temporary
HA should in a scalable way ask if MN only knows RR before
handing out a potentially useless HoA.

Multihoming is not the issue. It is more of an application
behavior consequence that multiple identities are not necessarily
independent especially when we talk about legacy interoperation
of existing and new applications.

The above was an attempt to speculate how a legacy scheme
in CN might work "transparently" (no change to applications)
when using the bit method.
By the ability of doing a transparent mapping of X HoA to
RR HoA in the same node by some implicit rule, whereby a
legacy node could try another address if the primary is a
forbidden one. But it is clumsy, and that was a point here..

Good that you brought this up. Scaling to the global network
in a general case by static configurations obviously is not
doable so that CNs know all different HoAs. Static configuration
can be an interface to future methods. Also, switching RR
off statically scales better if it means e.g. that no HoAs are
served with RR, or HoAs with CoA prefix only in certain networks
(e.g., in local protected domain) are served in some cases.

Note the difference to the address encoding case: there MN lets
CN know what it wants; in a static configuration MN or CN
can locally decide they don't trust RR, with no
identity duality problem. But configuration choices are
more limited. But, that would amount to less attempt to support
legacy (avoiding new legacy problems in the process). So it is a
tradeoff. Static configuration could be seen as a backup choice
should the bit method cause to be too problematic.

       This check has to be done by the MIPv6 code, as the

       both final and non-final.
   
=> I don't understand what can be a non-final protocol
(or does protocol stand for next header value)?
BTW to be final or non-final is an essential property, i.e.
a "protocol" can not be both.

   - RR and BR/BU/BA is implemented using a separate IP protocol
      type value.

I DISAGREE if this protocol is non-final (this doesn't work for
IPsec selectors).

   3. RECOMMENDATIONS
   
   The design team recommends the following:
   
   R1. A Separate protocol and/or port should be used for the BR
        message, all RR messages, BU message and BA message.  This
        will allow - but not mandate - the use of current IPsec
        selectors in protecting BUs to the CN and HA, and RR
        messages via the HA. The value of next protocol = none
        must be supported by all MIPv6 compliant nodes in these
        messages.
   
=> CONCLUSION/DISAGREE: this recommendation is too ambiguous
about the nature of the "protocol": final or non-final.

        There is also other potential use of the bits, e.g.
        selecting some variants of stronger BU authorization
        methods, but these are not discussed here.
   
=> ISSUE: where/when variants of stronger BU authorization methods
will be allowed (note that all the examples I know don't need
the bits)

   R3. The above two recommendations should be placed in the
        MIPv6 RFC. This would allow us to quickly proceed to RFC
        status by bypassing controversial content, have as simple
        RFC and implementations as possible, but still allow
        functionality like piggybacking to be specified without
        interoperability concerns, and used by all nodes who
        support it.
   
=> ISSUE: what will be the level of "requirement" for piggy-backing?
(AGREE with a MAY (and any NOT :-), DISAGREE with SHOULD/MUST)

        We recommend that such as an RFC for piggybacking be
        produced immediately.

=> I can propose the IPv6 payload header document (:-).
                                                  ^^^^

   R5. At a future time, IF IPsec selectors can be extended in
        some manner

=> I've noted the IF is BIG. Don't expect to see multi-protocol
IPsec (and what ever) selectors soon.

Indeed, RepIPsecOK=Yes means that in theory you could
use only Ipsec for that purpose without RR. We actually
didn't take much stand on whether we should allow that
or, just analyzed the requirements for BU/BA formats
based on the possibility of doing so.

Actually, I think we should make the RR mandatory in the
base RFC and postpone the IPsec-only discussion to another
RFC just to save time.

Well... I was thinking that the regular (base RFC)
case would be that they'd have a next hdr field but
that would be set to NO_NXTHDR. In my understanding
of RFC 2401 this would classify it as a final
for purposes of IPsec processing.

 - your assumption that all MIPv6 implementations are in kernel space

   Indeed, RepIPsecOK=Yes means that in theory you could
   use only Ipsec for that purpose without RR.

=> this is why I've cited this part of the table and used the
term "interpret".

   We actually
   didn't take much stand on whether we should allow that
   or, just analyzed the requirements for BU/BA formats
   based on the possibility of doing so.
   
=> so you have no official answer to my question nor to a similar
issue about BU/BA with the HA (aka Home Registration).

   Actually, I think we should make the RR mandatory in the
   base RFC

=> you shan't save time this way because you shall get strong objections...

   and postpone the IPsec-only discussion to another
   RFC just to save time.
   
=> to save time you need something with the good level of specifications
(too much (i.e. make RR mandatory) shall waste time, not enough (i.e.
ambiguous RR recommendations which are not interoperable) shan't help).

   Well... I was thinking that the regular (base RFC)
   case would be that they'd have a next hdr field but
   that would be set to NO_NXTHDR. In my understanding
   of RFC 2401 this would classify it as a final
   for purposes of IPsec processing.
   
=> For IPsec selector stuffs only the final "protocol" matters and
in this case it is "NO_NXTHDR". This was discussed in many mails
in the last two years...

   I agree. 
   
=> so you should understand that you can't get both IPsec and
piggy-backing!

PS: to leave the door open for alternative (to RR) highly secured
modes for BU/BA exchanges solves both the issue for anybody who
wants to use IPsec/AAA/... and the issue of the protection
of HRs (they will be magically (i.e. by an unspecified way) protected,
of course this works only if the magic is allowed).
And this is easy to do: specify the security requirements and
make RR mandatory when nothing else provides the required security.
You only need a statement beginning with an uppercase IF...

        IFIP/IEEE International Conference on
        Management of Multimedia Networks and Services

                  MMNS 2002
          Managing IP Multimedia End-To-End

              October 6-9, 2002
            Santa Barbara, CA USA
          http://www.cs.ucsb.edu/conferences/MMNS02


CALL FOR PAPERS

With the popularity of the IP-based Internet, there has been a major
shift towards building a worldwide, all-service and all-media network
based on the next-generation of IP technology. Rich multimedia is
increasingly being incorporated into Internet applications (like
Voice-over-IP, streaming video, etc.). However, more work is needed to
evolve the Internet and the underlying networking technologies into an
infrastructure capable of supporting all- service and all-media
traffic. Significant management functionality is required to ensure
that these applications have a network that is both capable and
available.  Management requirements may ensue from the fact that
multimedia traffic may traverse networks using a wide variety of
technology and each network may be owned, operated, and controlled by
a different organization.  In order to provide end-to-end, high
quality multimedia services, the network must provide robust
management functionality.

The IFIP/IEEE International Conference on Management of Multimedia
Networks and Services will hold its fifth annual meeting Oct. 6
through Oct. 9, 2002 in Santa Barbara, CA. The IFIP/IEEE MMNS is a
single-track conference and provides an intimate setting for
discussion and debate.  The program committee is soliciting original
papers describing research in the area of management of multimedia
networks and services. Topics of interest include, but are not limited
to, the following:

  o End-to-end IP multimedia network and service management
  o VoIP service management
  o IP Video, streaming, interactive video service management
  o Provisioning of multimedia networks and services
  o Wireless and mobile multimedia network management
  o Optical multimedia network management
  o Cable multimedia network management
  o Multimedia network traffic engineering and optimization
  o Distributed multimedia service management
  o Network management models and architectures
  o Billing and security for multi-media services
  o Content distribution internetworking
  o Resource, performance and fault management
  o Multi-point, multicast services management
  o Network programmability for multimedia services
  o Policy-based management for multimedia services
  o QoS management
  o Multimedia traffic management
  o Multimedia content protection
  o Deployment of multimedia services
  o Active multimedia network management
  o Multimedia session management
  o Middleware support for management

Changing from essentially one type of DO to another does not impact
the existing implementations that much, changing to a port would be
a big mess since we must move from the IP layer to the socket layer.
And you could still implement it as a daemon if Mipv6 is given a new
"protocol" type since it's very easy to deliver all those packets
to user-space.

I've only seen Mobile IPv4 implementations in user-space, but I'll admit
I haven't seen them all.  NFS was moved into the kernel for performance
reasons, and I wouldn't say it's easy to implement, there are a lot of
tricks going on behind the scenes.

Pekka,

I understand and I go back to the original proposal that
all responses to unverified HAO be tagged.

Here is a way to tackle the packet loss issue. The CN would
move to tagging state when it receives a packet with HAO
(and hence start tagging right away). However, if it receives a
packet without HAO but with HoA as source IP address,
it goes back to no-tagging state and resides in that state
until a timer (randomized) expires. This way, the MN's
packets with HAO will not be dropped regardless of the
state in which the CN is.

Regards,

-Rajeev

For security reasons I think the CN needs to tag conservatively i.e. it
is fine if it tags when it isn't needed.

Getting this behavior as well as making the tagging logic be robust against
packet loss and other ways the MN and CN can get out of synch is the hard
part.

I know one way to make it robust, but that ends up looking where much like a
BU exchange:
1b	MN(CoA) -> CN
2b	CN -< HN(Coa)
3	MN(CoA) -> CN	create unvHAO state please
4	CN -< HN(Coa)	state created with lifetime X

The 1b/2b exchange is there to prevent an attacker spoofing the source address
from filling the unvHAO cache.
The 3/4 exchange allows the MN to know that an entry was created
and when it will be expired (so that the MN can renew it explicitly).

The above is both secure and robust against packet loss as far as I understand.
But I don't see any benefit of doing it since it looks almost like doing RO.

I don't see how you can do that and still not have holes.

That would help a bit (but it doesn't look like a BR any more but that is a 
detail). What if that BR is lost?
Should the CN send one for every unvHAO it receives? Should the CN indicate
that it wants to receive such a BR?

Hi,

	I've submitted a new version of the MIPv4 NAT traversal draft.

Until officially announced, it is available at

http://www.levkowetz.com/pub/id/draft-ietf-mobileip-nat-traversal-01.txt .

There is also an unpaginated version marked with changebars from the -00
draft to the -01 draft available as

http://www.levkowetz.com/pub/id/changes-draft-ietf-mobileip-nat-traversal-00..1.txt 

	The changes are:

	- Updated references, mostly due to the 2002bis draft becoming RFC

	- Explicit indication of the no-NAT case, through a reply
	  code in the UDP Tunnelling Reply Exteion. Formerly, this was
	  indicated through the absense of that extension in the reply.

	- Support for co-located registration through a foreign agent due
	  to the 'R' bit being set in the advertisement. This was not
	  covered in the -00 draft, and has necessitated new flag
	  bits in the UDP Tunnelling extensions and Agent advertisements,
	  and some new requirements.

	Comments are appreciated. 

	Best regards,

		Henrik

This is a very crucial question. This needs to be resolved before 
we can proceed with piggybacking. If transport protocol is strictly
speaking the only thing one interprets as possible for selector
protocol number, this enforces non-piggybacking.

But, if we can use mobility protocol besides transport protocol,
this would require an implementation clarification on how you
locate this protocol number by 2401.

If you look at 2401, it says how to locate a transport number
and describes a loop from which you bail out when you found
a transport number. It is not talking about what it returns
otherwise. Specifying we return it by position or by role
gives two ways of returning it affecting the fundamentals of
piggybacking rules. By position one could use current spec
this way. Now it says 'scan to the end or until you hit unknown
or ESP'. This would need clarification for mobility header: If
one reaches no next header when locating transport
protocol, use previous protocol if mobility protocol. That
would use the same byte you normally read for transport.

Returning a value by role changes some assumptions and may not
work so well. Mobility header can't be always transport because
you would not reach the actual transport in case you piggyback.
Defining it as unknown does kind of work but would have the
same problem from the exact transport search: you bail out
with the unknown value too early and do not see the actual
transport when you do piggyback.

So to have no change requirement to IPsec standards and minimal
implementation interpretation requirement would call returning
it by position. We could mandate this interpretation for this
header and it would have minimal or no effect to current
implementations. The interpretation should be placed in
MIPv6 spec as one sentence giving the extra exit condition
for 2461 transport protocol search loop. We could call it
is a transport protocol by position, that is, when it is the
last header in the packet.

In other words, when using mobility, IPsec implementations should
allow for the use of last non-no-next-header value in this case.

Existing IPSEC combined with piggybagging will never work. Forget it!

It can be made to work only with big addition into policy selector
logic.

Consider a policy

   remote_port=25, protocol=TCP
      -> "use protection 1"

If you add piggybacking mobile IP to this, you have to define
additional selector

(2)   remote_port=25, protocol=TCP, "piggypack-selector"
     -> "use protection 2"

And to cater for traffic, that happens to go clear normally, you also
need

(3)   "piggypack-selector" -> "use protection 3"

In above, it doesn't matter whether we are using (a) new extension
header or (b) the original idea of destination option. In both cases
something new has to be added to the IPSEC selectors. [There is no way
any automatic algorithm can derive "protection 2" and "protection 1"
from the "protection 1". They must be explicitly told in policy!].

In (a), we need a selector mechanism that allows us to list a sequence
of headers or prototocols, which if present, match the selector
(e.g. instead of allowing just "transport protocol", we need a list of
protocols which may be transport or not).

     (2) MIP6-protocol-number TCP remote_port=25 -> ...
     (3) MIP6-protocol-number -> ...

In (b) we need a selector which has a protocol number with
subparameters

     (2) DOP(BU-option) TCP remote_port=25 -> ...
     (3) DOP(BU-option) -> ..

(Actually, if we go with this "subparameter-idea", the ports are just
parameters to the TCP protocol matcher. For ICMP, subparameters would
the type and code).

I was always uncomfortable with the selector talking about "transport
protocol". Just matching the given list of protocols (if any) with the
packet is much cleaner. Selector matches, if all listed protocols are
found matching while chasing the extension headers, before end of
chain is reached.

Hello Charlie;

I was browsing RFC3220 which is posted on the web, until I reached section
3.6 "Mobile Node Consideration"
It reference section 3.6.1.2. for the Mobile Node way to discover the Home
Agent.

Well, I think there is a part of that section missing. 
The following is what on the web:

3.6.1.2. Registration Request Fields

   This section provides specific rules by which mobile nodes pick
   values for the fields within the fixed portion of a Registration
   Request.

   A mobile node MAY set the 'S' bit in order to request that the home
   agent maintain prior mobility binding(s).  Otherwise, the home agent
   deletes any previous binding(s) and replaces them with the new
   binding specified in the Registration Request.  Multiple simultaneous
   mobility bindings are likely to be useful when a mobile node using at
   least one wireless network interface moves within wireless
   transmission range of more than one foreign agent.  IP explicitly
   allows duplication of datagrams.  When the home agent allows
   simultaneous bindings, it will tunnel a separate copy of each
   arriving datagram to each care-of address, and the mobile node will
   receive multiple copies of datagrams destined to it.

   The mobile node SHOULD set the 'D' bit if it is registering with a
   co-located care-of address.  Otherwise, the 'D' bit MUST NOT be set.




Perkins                     Standards Track                    [Page 41]


RFC 3220              IP Mobility Support for IPv4          January 2002


   A mobile node MAY set the 'B' bit to request its home agent to
   forward to it, a copy of broadcast datagrams received by its home
   agent from the home network.  The method used by the home agent to
   forward broadcast datagrams depends on the type of care-of address
   registered by the mobile node, as determined by the 'D' bit in the
   mobile node's Registration Request:

      -  If the 'D' bit is set, then the mobile node has indicated that
         it will decapsulate any datagrams tunneled to this care-of
         address itself (the mobile node is using a co-located care-of
         address).  In this case, to forward such a received broadcast
         datagram to the mobile node, the home agent MUST tunnel it to
         this care-of address.  The mobile node de-tunnels the received
         datagram in the same way as any other datagram tunneled
         directly to it.

      -  If the 'D' bit is NOT set, then the mobile node has indicated
         that it is using a foreign agent care-of address, and that the
         foreign agent will thus decapsulate arriving datagrams before
         forwarding them to the mobile node.  In this case, to forward
         such a received broadcast datagram to the mobile node, the home
         agent MUST first encapsulate the broadcast datagram in a
         unicast datagram addressed to the mobile node's home address,
         and then MUST tunnel this resulting datagram to the mobile
         node's care-of address.

         When decapsulated by the foreign agent, the inner datagram will
         thus be a unicast IP datagram addressed to the mobile node,
         identifying to the foreign agent the intended destination of
         the encapsulated broadcast datagram, and will be delivered to
         the mobile node in the same way as any tunneled datagram
         arriving for the mobile node.  The foreign agent MUST NOT
         decapsulate the encapsulated broadcast datagram and MUST NOT
         use a local network broadcast to transmit it to the mobile
         node.  The mobile node thus MUST decapsulate the encapsulated
         broadcast datagram itself, and thus MUST NOT set the 'B' bit in
         its Registration Request in this case unless it is capable of
         decapsulating datagrams.

   The mobile node MAY request alternative forms of encapsulation by
   setting the 'M' bit and/or the 'G' bit, but only if the mobile node
   is decapsulating its own datagrams (the mobile node is using a co-
   located care-of address) or if its foreign agent has indicated
   support for these forms of encapsulation by setting the corresponding
   bits in the Mobility Agent Advertisement Extension of an Agent
   Advertisement received by the mobile node.  Otherwise, the mobile
   node MUST NOT set these bits.


********* HERE::: There is part of this section is missing and part of
section 3.6.1.3 with its header is missing too *********

Perkins                     Standards Track                    [Page 42]


RFC 3220              IP Mobility Support for IPv4          January 2002


      a) The IP header, followed by the UDP header, followed by the
         fixed-length portion of the Registration Request, followed by

      b) If present, any non-authentication Extensions expected to be
         used by the home agent (which may or may not also be useful to
         the foreign agent), followed by

      c) An authorization-enabling extension, followed by

      d) If present, any non-authentication Extensions used only by the
         foreign agent, followed by

      e) The Mobile-Foreign Authentication Extension, if present.

   Note that items (a) and (c) MUST appear in every Registration Request
   sent by the mobile node.  Items (b), (d), and (e) are optional.
   However, item (e) MUST be included when the mobile node and the
   foreign agent share a mobility security association.


I am not sure If I am missing something or not, BUT It even does not read
right. 
Please take a look and verify this.

Thanks a lot.

Ahmad Muhanna

   This is a very crucial question. This needs to be resolved before 
   we can proceed with piggybacking. If transport protocol is strictly
   speaking the only thing one interprets as possible for selector
   protocol number, this enforces non-piggybacking.
   
=> it is, RFC 2401 is not ambiguous this time:

      - 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.

So piggy-backing and IPsec are essentially not compatible...
(the only hack which could work is to define a new no-next-header
dedicated to mobility).

   But, if we can use mobility protocol besides transport protocol,
   this would require an implementation clarification on how you
   locate this protocol number by 2401.
   
=> and modify all the existing IPsec implementations? NO!

   If you look at 2401, it says how to locate a transport number
   and describes a loop from which you bail out when you found
   a transport number. It is not talking about what it returns
   otherwise.

=> your English and mine are not the same (:-).

   This would need clarification for mobility header:

=> no, you can not make the mobility header both final and non-final!

   Mobility header can't be always transport because
   you would not reach the actual transport in case you piggyback.

=> this is the problem:
 - for IPsec they MUST be final (aka transport)
 - for piggy-backing they MUST be non-final

   So to have no change requirement to IPsec standards and minimal
   implementation interpretation requirement would call returning
   it by position.

=> NO!

   In other words, when using mobility, IPsec implementations should
   allow for the use of last non-no-next-header value in this case.
   
=> I *strongly* object and if your "solution" is accepted by
the mobile-ip WG I'll ask the IESG to consult ipv6 and ipsec WGs.

PS: this problem was discussed many times in the last two years.

 In your previous mail you wrote:

   Existing IPSEC combined with piggybagging will never work. Forget it!
   
=> I agree but some of us seem to be ready to twist IPsec and IPv6...

   It can be made to work only with big addition into policy selector
   logic.
   
=> basically what is needed is multi-protocol policy selector,
something which is hard to specified, hard to implement, likely
very inefficient and a nightmare to configure...
(PS: (a) is the real multi-protocol, (b) is even worse, this is
sub-parameter selector).

   (Actually, if we go with this "subparameter-idea", the ports are just
   parameters to the TCP protocol matcher. For ICMP, subparameters would
   the type and code).
   
=> the ICMP example shows the subparameter-idea is very limited
because if it is easy to associate a service to port selectors,
this is not the case for ICMP type&code: for instance to give
a different protection to Neighbor Discovery you need 4 or 5 rules
(multiplied by source/destinations). Profiles should be better
but they need to be specified far before to be usable in the real world
between different implementations...

   I was always uncomfortable with the selector talking about "transport
   protocol". Just matching the given list of protocols (if any) with the
   packet is much cleaner. Selector matches, if all listed protocols are
   found matching while chasing the extension headers, before end of
   chain is reached.

=> this is more powerful but too complex to handle and to use.
I am very uncomfortable with anything which can increase the IPsec
complexity, and this feeling seems to be shared by many people.

hi Markku and Francis,

Jari Malinen and I had sent a writeup to the design team describing
when you can piggyback and when you cant, when you have IPSec
turned on. We concluded that piggybacking is possible only in two
cases out of four. Heres a table from the writeup

           Table 1. Piggybacking with IPsec

	  IPSec policy for    IPSec policy
           Mobility header     for Payload    Can piggyback
      1.       no                 no              yes
      2.       no                 yes             yes

      4.       yes                yes             no


 From the table, the sender does not piggyback at all whenever the
mobility extension header has an IPSec policy.

For handling the first two cases, there is no need for any change
to RFC 2401 or the existing IPSec implementations. Please let me
know if I am wrong.

One more thing, Markku, we are NOT asking for any changes to
RFC 2401. If anything that we propose requires changes to
IPSec, we will immediately drop the idea. Do not worry :)

I will address protecting Mobility extension header (in a
non-piggybacked packet) with IPSec in a separate mail. Looks
like we are interpreting RFC 2401 protocol selector scan
differently.

Not so simple.  As I argued in another message, *if* firewalls
drop tagged packets, tagging when not needed leads to nasty
denial-of-service attacks against stationary hosts.

Which brings forth an idea:  would it be possible to use some
variant of the "one bit" method to signal that a host using
a given address *is* a stationary host, and unvHAOs should not
be accepted for that address at all?  In any case, the bidding
down attack is most vicious against stationary hosts that do not
understand MIPv6 signalling at all.

I know this idea has lots of problems, but maybe somebody could
use the idea to develop something really useful.

 In your previous mail you wrote:

   Jari Malinen and I had sent a writeup to the design team describing
   when you can piggyback and when you cant, when you have IPSec
   turned on. We concluded that piggybacking is possible only in two
   cases out of four. Heres a table from the writeup
   
              Table 1. Piggybacking with IPsec
   
   	  IPSec policy for    IPSec policy
              Mobility header     for Payload    Can piggyback
         1.       no                 no              yes
         2.       no                 yes             yes
         3.       yes                no              no
         4.       yes                yes             no
   
   
    From the table, the sender does not piggyback at all whenever the
   mobility extension header has an IPSec policy.
   
=> the mobility extension header can have an IPsec policy only
if it is final, i.e. not an "extension" header. Sorry but this
was discussed along the last two years: you are only losing your time.

   For handling the first two cases, there is no need for any change
   to RFC 2401 or the existing IPSec implementations. Please let me
   know if I am wrong.
   
=> the cases 1 and 2 have no "IPsec policy for Mobility header"
so they could work with current IPsec.

   One more thing, Markku, we are NOT asking for any changes to
   RFC 2401. If anything that we propose requires changes to
   IPSec, we will immediately drop the idea. Do not worry :)
   
=> so drop the idea of an IPsec policy for a non-final header.

   I will address protecting Mobility extension header (in a
   non-piggybacked packet) with IPSec in a separate mail. Looks
   like we are interpreting RFC 2401 protocol selector scan
   differently.
   
=> please don't twist IPsec in order to fill your needs.

a major step backward (Mobile IPv6 I-Ds had a MUST, IESG asked to
change it in a MAY).

   So the HA-MN use of IPsec is easy because part of the configuration
   on the HA (when using IKE a certificates in this example, which isn't required
   in general) could be to associate the home address with a certificate.
   This could be done by as part of the configuration of the relationship on the
   HA i.e. 
   certificate name nordmark@eng.sun.com can do BUs for 1:2:3::220:afff:fe8d:b2d6
   
=> as we definitively disagree about what is a certificate I prefer to
avoid a new boring discussion. You just don't believe in a very common
use of IPsec based VPNs...

   And the same relationship can be manually created on a few select CNs,
   but it doesn't scale doing this for a large number of CNs.
   
=> this scaling issue is true but still doesn't justify the implicit
"MUST NOT" for IPsec alone.

   So this is the motivation for saying that in general IPsec need to be used
   in addition to RR.
   
=> I *strongly* disagree, especially if the "in general" is replaced
by "always".

   There are crucial differences between the generalized approach,
   and the existing approach:
   
   - The existing approach does not introduce any new IPv6 features
     other than what is needed to process the specific Destination
     Option.  Approaches using IPv6 extension headers that specifically
     prevent piggybacking will, essentially, have to block this
     generally useful feature.
   
=> this is obviously not true and the large number of answers against
the piggy-backing should show your view is not shared by everybody...

   - Your point here is not against Binding Update + payload specifically,
     but against generalized multi-payloads.

=> yes, if the L2 arguments show piggy-backing is good, they should
show that multi-payloads are good.

     The problems with multi-payloads
     are not particularly applicable to Binding Update + payload.  Thus,
     I think this counts as a straw-man argument.  However, I do agree
     that your points are valid otherwise, and that there is work that
     should eventually be done in order to have a multi-payload option.
   
=> eventually be done? The strong consensus in the IPv6 WG was clearly
this is a very bad idea.

   - Binding Updates are NOT just any old piece of packet data.  They are
     crucial for correct operation of Mobile IPv6, which is a network-layer
     protocol.  Thus, they belong to be as part of IP processing, and that
     makes them into IP options, which by IPv6 design are quite amenable
     to being sent along with payload.
   
=> as control and data planes are not separated (i.e. signaling is online),
any pros or cons for piggy-backing can be translated in the same argument
for multi-payloads.

   This really amounts to a statement that the security policies
   may be different.

=> I didn't write security policies, but any policies.

   That problem is already solved by use of
   the Binding Authentication Data suboption.
   
=> not if you'd like to keep the possibility to use IPsec
for BU protection. The option to solve the piggy-backing & IPsec
interference by dropping IPsec is *not* admissible.

    There seem to be two separate authorization checks that are needed 
    before accepting a binding update:
    (a) Check that the sender is authorized to use the HoA

=> this should be easy.

    (b) Check that the sender is authorized to the the CoA
   
=> I *strongly* disagree because what is needed in (b) is the
authorization to use a CoA, not to use this CoA. BTW strong
authorization to use a transient address is near infeasible
and if we want to mandate your (b) we should before forbid
IPsec based VPNs with mobile nodes (in fact nomadic nodes,
aka "road warriors").

    As far as I can see, an IPsec SA established using, for example,
    X.509 certificates with IP addresses (not DNS names) in them is 
    perfectly adequate for checking HoA authorization.

=> until DNSSEC is widely available, IMHO we should avoid to use
certificates without addresses. BTW for MN-CN SA establishment
there is no reason to use something else than HoA for IKE message
transport, in identities (both phases 1 & 2) and in certificates.

    It's not so good for checking CoA authorization, because at the time
   the certificate is issued you don't know what CoA the node is going
   to be using.
   
=> another reason is you don't want to do the whole thing for each
hand-off. The problem is you ask for the wrong authorization.

    My current view is that:
    - you have to do RR for the CoA in all cases;

=> obviously an overkilling!

   => My points are: 
   
   - what is the identity used to establish an SA?

=> HoA address (no need for something else between a MN and a CN).

   - Just because you have an SA with
   that identity does that mean that they can
   modify your routing table (that's effectively
   what a BU does). 
   
=> yes, if you are authorized to do that you are authorized to do that,
where is the problem?

   The ownership of a HoA does NOT give you the right

=> we don't speak about ownership, but about strong authentication
and authorization.

   to forward traffic to any address (CoA) on
   the Internet.

=> this is what is authorized, and you need the strong authentication
in order to really verify the BU is from the node using the HoA.
Is your concern the MN may reroute the traffic to itself to
a fake CoA? (note this traffic will contain your HoA in a RH type 2)

   Being a certain identity in a certificate
   ..etc does not necessarily authorise you
   to divert traffic from an address (HoA), 
   unless the HoA is included in your identity
   somehow.

=> we agree

   And you still need to prove that 
   you own a CoA of course. 
   
=> no, you don't need.

   Authenticating someone doesn't necessarily 
   give them authorisation to do whatever they 
   want.

=> we lost one year with the authentication is not authorization thread,
please, not again.

   For the BU, the proof of ownership 
   for the HoA and Coa is needed. 
   
=> I disagree. Strong authentication of the HoA and authorization to
perform BUs are enough too.
   
   => What's AAA doing here? My response
   was on manually configured SAs!
   
=> nobody uses configured SAs, please put real tools (IKE for instance)
in the context.

If we (still) disagree about merits of piggy-packing, we 100% agree
about the security stuff (cf. draft-dupont-ipsec-mipv6-00.txt
and the answer to Hesham's note).

Some details:
 - there is no standardized way to say a node is a MN so
   it is authorized to send BUs but:
   * the "road warrior" case in VPNs is already supported by
     all IPsec based VPN implementations, something similar
     can be specified.
   * the "home address" identity can be considered as an implicit
     authorization too (note: this implies a modification of X.509
     certificate format?)
 - the authenticated and authorized BU to a fake CoA threat is not
   serious: the traffic from the CN to the target (the real user of
   the CoA) will contain a RH type 2 with the HoA (i.e. the real attacker)
   in each packet or fragment. If this is not enough for someone
   he should have shouted against the "new proposal for HAO".

So I still argue IPsec without RR MAY protect BUs if the protection
covers enough fields (i.e. with ESP an alternate CoA is required, etc),
and the protection includes authentication (should be always the case)
and the MN is authorized to send BUs.

 In your previous mail you wrote:

   The above assumes that there are CAs for PKIs that will
   actually put IP addresses as subject(Alt)name,

=> CAs may do that (and OpenBSD certpatch can help to add that :-).

   and that folks will
   actually trust those CAs to have correct IP addresses in the certs.
   
=> basically folks trust CAs (:-)!

   It also assumes that the IETF community thinks it is a bad idea
   to keep IP addresses in certificates. RFC 2956, which is a report from
   an IAB workshop, in section 3.4 seems to indicate that this might
   not be considered a good idea but instead something that should be
   avoided.
   
=> I agree but the end of section 3.4 stands:

   Ubiquitous deployment of the Secure DNS Extensions ([8]) should be
   strongly encouraged to facilitate widespread deployment of IPsec
   (including IKE) without address-based Identity types.

So until we have a secured way to verify name-address mapping
(DNSSEC is the obvious candidate) I am reluctant to encourage
IKE phase one where the addresses can not be verified (this
should be allowed but with restriction, look at my I-D about
IPsec and Mobile IPv6 for the beginning of a discussion.
BTW this is an 100% IPsec topic).

   Given your text above I think you omitted a few conditionals here like
   - the subject(atl)name in the certificate used to create the IPsec SA
     is the HoA, and
   - the IKE implementation verified that this IP address was used during
     the key exchange

=> Mike's message seemed to assume manual keying...
BTW I agree with your conditionals (and added some others in my I-D).

Thanks

Francis.Dupont@enst-bretagne.fr

PS: do you know why RFC 2956 section 3.4 is explicitely about IPv4
addresses (32-bit IP addresses)? Is there something I've missed?

   Yes. But with the strict restriction that use of such
   extension header with a subsequent (e.g. final) header
   could happen only if sender of BU/BAck/BR does not use
   IPsec for protecting mobility signaling, i.e., there is
   no policy for that. In all other cases this new protocol
   would be the final one available as a selector component.
   
=> I can see a real problem for the same "protocol" to be
both final and not-final.

   In the future, when selectors get extended to support

=> when == never (IPsec is already too complex).

   extensions with subsequent packet, minimal or no protocol
   change would be needed, only relaxation of the above rule.
   At least this is how I understood James's compromise
   could be applied.
   
=> James' compromise is a good idea but this detail has to be fixed.

Francis,

=> I think it's enough to authorise the use 
of the HoAö if included inside the Certs. However,
the issue was brought up by the DT and several
drafts to highlight that there is a need
to prove ownership of the CoA to avoid 
bombing attacks. You clearly disagree with
that. It took me some time to understand
whether there is a significant difference 
between bombing someone directly or via a CN. 
I must admit I'm still not 100% convinced
that there is a significant difference. But 
I'm not as sure as you are that it is irrelevant.

=> The main advantage of multi-payload over
piggybacking is that it avoids the IPsec
issues. But it doesn't address any of the QoS
problems. 
My earlier note was misunderstood and
assumed to be only relevant to certain link
layers. Whereas it is relevant for any link along
the way. David Oran has clearly explained
this. 

  > PS: for me ROHC is the only place at the IETF where this

=> It's _not_ just a link layer issue. If you
piggyback a BU (that requires higher priority
forwarding by intermediate routers) over your 
web traffic (low priority), how can we (magically?)
set the TOS field?? 
Not all systems assume e2e QoS signalling (none
is deployed today), and even if e2e signalling
was to be deployed, I don't know if there is 
an e2e protocol that says 'do not piggyback
the BU' to a CN. 

I'm probably answering your email and a few
earlier ones in one email :). I know you agree
with some of these points.

Hesham

Yes, but defining the header as unknown would work for the
case where piggybacking is not used by the peers. It is only
the piggybacking case that needs special treatment. Given
that we have been assuming that the sender is responsible
for figuring out that there are no IPsec policies related
to the payload or the BU, this would seem to indicate that
we don't have a problem at all. That is,

   policy(MH) == pass AND policy(payload) == PASS

     IMPLIES

   policy(MH+paylod) == pass.

Now, if MH is unknown as far as RFC 2401 is concerned,
this means that IPsec will treat the MH+payload packet
is it would have treated the MH alone. But since the
action in both cases is pass, this does not seem to
have an impact.

Of course, in order to do the above, an implementation
that wants to use piggybacking needs to have an API
between MIPv6 and IPsec in order to figure out if
the policy lookups really return pass.

Conclusion (at this stage, without reading the rest
of the thread yet): separate MH header, unknown treatment
from RFC 2401, and optional piggybacking support would
seem to solve the issue.

I don't think this is the intention from anyone. I thought
most people had the opinion that we should NOT extend
IPsec or specify a complicated mechanism to cover both
BUs and payloads.

HOWEVER, what is being debated now is whether we could still
use piggybacking in *some* cases (and define it as optional
so not everyone has to implement it if they don't want to,
and do it in a separate RFC so the little details that have
be done right don't delay the main MIPv6 RFC). The basic
approach is checking from MIPv6 code that there are no
"troublesome" policies, and proceeding with piggybacking
only if there aren't.

(Francis, could you take a look at my previous e-mail
to the list and comment whether the analysis is right?
I know you have a lot of experience on this particular
issue so I'd appreciate your comments on it.)

Isn't line 2 incorrect? If there's a policy for the
payload, the the 'MH is unknown for RFC 2401' approach
doesn't work anymore, and the packet would go unprotected.

   => I think it's enough to authorise the use 
   of the HoAö if included inside the Certs. However,
   the issue was brought up by the DT and several
   drafts to highlight that there is a need
   to prove ownership of the CoA to avoid 
   bombing attacks.

=> bombing attacks when all packets include the HoA in a RH type 2.
I don't believe this is a serious threat!

   You clearly disagree with that.

=> YES!

   It took me some time to understand
   whether there is a significant difference 
   between bombing someone directly or via a CN. 

=> there is a clear difference: directly you should use forged source
addresses and go through ingress filtering, via a CN *with RO* you
only expect the target doesn't notice the RH in each packet (:-).

   I must admit I'm still not 100% convinced
   that there is a significant difference. But 
   I'm not as sure as you are that it is irrelevant. 
   
=> do you agree with my argument?

 In your previous mail you wrote:

   Of course, in order to do the above, an implementation
   that wants to use piggybacking needs to have an API
   between MIPv6 and IPsec in order to figure out if
   the policy lookups really return pass.
   
=> don't forget this API can not be assumed to exist.

   Conclusion (at this stage, without reading the rest
   of the thread yet): separate MH header, unknown treatment
   from RFC 2401, and optional piggybacking support would
   seem to solve the issue.
   
=> I believe you haven't measured the consequences:
 - IPsec support is mandatory for all compliant IPv6 implementations
 - the API is not available or not used in many implementations
 - so stupid but immediate solution is to disable piggy-backing
   support on every Mobile IPv6 implementations on platforms
   which support IPsec, i.e. on at least all compliant platforms.
In fact you give the choice to piggy-backing supporters between to
disable piggy-backing and/or to wait for the API. I am not a
piggy-backing supporter but this is so unfair that I shan't follow you
on this path.

   I don't think this is the intention from anyone. I thought
   most people had the opinion that we should NOT extend
   IPsec or specify a complicated mechanism to cover both
   BUs and payloads.
   
=> so we agree that for IPsec a terminal (aka final) "protocol"
is required.

   HOWEVER, what is being debated now is whether we could still
   use piggybacking in *some* cases (and define it as optional
   so not everyone has to implement it if they don't want to,
   and do it in a separate RFC so the little details that have
   be done right don't delay the main MIPv6 RFC). The basic
   approach is checking from MIPv6 code that there are no
   "troublesome" policies, and proceeding with piggybacking
   only if there aren't.
   
=> I have personally no objection to make piggy-backing
unfeasible but we know we'll never reach a consensus this way.

   (Francis, could you take a look at my previous e-mail
   to the list and comment whether the analysis is right?
   I know you have a lot of experience on this particular
   issue so I'd appreciate your comments on it.)
   
=> I believe I have an idea which can be accepted by IPsec
and piggy-backing folks...

Yes, but failure to communicae is a security feature and not a security bug :-)
 From a strict security perspective conservative tagging is fine.
Making things actually work requires more than just considering the
security perspective.

So I agree that you need to consider the claimed desire to have firewalls
filter tagged packets, robustness in terms of the MN and CN getting
out of synch on the unvHAO state, etc.

I have not forgotten this. That is precisely my
point about the piggybacking thing being optional
and preferably also in a separate document. So, those
who *do* want to take cost can do so, but don't have
to bother other folks.

So, zero your bit mask and don't worry about it...

Well, I'm really not a fan of piggybacking either but I'm trying
to find a way for this WG to move ahead. It seems at least that
we agree that the choices are:

1. No piggybacking.
2. Piggybacking in a special case, with an API (optional)
(3. Modify IPsec is not an option)

I think you favor option 1. I'm between options 1 and 2,
but I have this feeling that the WG could close this issue
and move forward if we picked 2. That does not seem to
cost anything to folks who don't want piggyback.

After this explanation, would you Francis be prepared to
accept also option 2, or do you think we should try to
find consensus for option 1?

... the validity of the above statement depends on your definition
of security.  Some people, including me, tend to count availability
of services also as belonging to "security", even though resiliance
in the large goes beyound.

Thus, if a mechanism creates potential availability problems, i.e.
opens up new venues for denial-of-service, I would count it as
a security problem.  Thus, failure to communicate is not necessarily
a security feature, it can also be a security bug.  Especially, failure
to convey legitimate communication should be considered as an
availability bug, and therefore as a security bug.

:-) :-)

Apparently alternatives are

  1) no piggyback, a new TRANSPORT level protocol number for BU

or, controversial (?)

  2) back to original Mobile IPv6 draft as is, with clarification that
     accepting certain options (like BU) may be configured to require
     that packet was protected by IPSEC (similar to neigbour
     discovery).

     Accompanied with strong "SHOULD" for requiring that all
     communcations are protected with sufficient level IPSEC (whether
     BU is present/piggybacked or not).

Neighbor discovery RFC 2461 seems to "get away" with such wording
easily, its left up to policies whether IPSEC is used or not. (Of
course, in mobile IP IPSEC is more important. Though, ND with a set of
manual SA's would be nice for building "virtual private WLAN" :-)

I do not think that the assumption that the sender is able to determine
the presence of IPSec policies is valid:

It can probably (by interacting with its IPSec module) determine the presence of IPSec policies on its own link, 
and it can perhaps also (by asking the peer) determine whether there are IPsec policies on the
peers link - But what if some intermediate routers have IPSec policies anchored on the payload which
the sender has no knowledge of (e.g. protected tunnels over insecure networks 
for certain kind of communications). Then the MH can result in these packets not being
properly processed (since the IPSec selector will target the MH and not the payload)

I would therefore say that even in 1., piggybacking in general is not possible.

Jim,

I suspect there are multiple types of policy where the service provider
is in a better position to set the policy, as well as cases when a
user should be able to override the policy.

In general we don't have many IETF protocols to help with this - the
only reasonably complete example I can think of is DHCP.
But using a protocol (whether DHCP or something else) to control security
relevant policy on the host has bootstrapping issues.
In some cases this can also be done at subscription time i.e. signing
up with a service provider might mean that the host gets suggested
and/or mandatory policy settings (in the "dialer" software, or in the SIM
card).

So I think for security reasons we want the MN to be the entity stating
the policy whether or not it has received that policy as
a recommendation or a requirement from the service provider.

This is an excellent point, and a point that at least I
have forgotten in this discussion. Unless someone sees
a way around this, we have then only three alternatives,
(1) give up piggybacking altogether, (2) allow piggybacking
only in messages that never need to be protected specially
by IPsec, or (3) change IPsec. Since changing IPsec
particularly on possibly already existing nodes that
appear between two MIPv6 hosts is probably out of the
question we are left with alternatives 1 and 2.

Alternative 2 is troublesome because there seems to
be folks who want to use IPsec-only for BU protection;
I'd be happy with saying that you'll have to run RR or
CGA for every BU. Also, since the Home Agent needs
to protect RR messages as they pass through it, making
RR messages invisible to IPsec policies would mean
running IPsec on all traffic between the HA and the MN.

So it looks like what we are left with is alternative 1.

BTW: This is habout ow to *use* IPsec for MIPv6. When discussing how to use 
tools like hammers to build things like buildings it probably isn't useful
to defer that to the "hammer" working group.

I'm trying to work out an example of where an MN tries to use IKE to do a BU
with a CN.
It goes something like this:
 - MN kicks IKE to set up a SA to use for the BU
	Must the MN verify that it has a certificate with its HoA as
	subject(alt)name to do this?
	No, because then it would not be able to take advantage of the DNSSEC
	reference above. Thus an IPsec SA is always attempted.
 - MN/CN finishes with SA establishment
	If the subject(alt)name was the home address then the CN can conclude
	that BUs protected by the SA are authorized for that Home Address.
	If not the CN does a DNS lookup of the hostname in the certificate
	subject(alt)name. It must use DNSsec for this i.e. all signature
	chains must be verified (the way DNSsec normally does it).
	If (one of) the IP addresses returned from the DNS is the HoA
	then BUs protected by the SA are authorized for that HoA.
	If the subject(alt)names are only mbox names (such as
	erik.nordmark@eng.sun.com) then this will fail and the SA is
	not useful for authorizing BUs.

Does the above make sense?

The looup of a hostname (FQDN) with DNSsec validation is presumably more
expensive than the extra roundtrip caused by using RR together with IPsec.
And if RR is used together with IPsec you can also handle things
for mbox certificates.

I don't recall the exact discussion but I think this is written the
way it is because the workshop was looking at how to handle the IP layer issues
and IPv6 wasn't taken as granted as the solution at that point in time. Thus
folks were looking for places where identifying nodes using IPv4 address would
cause problems.

=> The only major difference I see is the 
amplification aspect of the attack. I.e.
start the TCP connection then forward it 
to the victim, and do some TCP sequence
number guessing to keep the connection 
up.

=> It doesn't matter if the target notices the RH or not. 
The point is you would not be able to prevent it. 
You will detect the attacker of course, but you
won't prevent the attack.

=> As I said, I see the main difference being 
the amplification, but I also see a performance
loss when always mandating RR for the CoA. Hence, 
the internal debate with myself :) 
The question is how secure we want RO to be 
given the performance loss. 
I can't answer it yet without looking into
it in more detail.

Hello,

The following writeup provides a recommendation for unverified HAO 
processing by CNs. In order to gauge consensus from the WG, we
would like feedback from WG members by 5 PM Thursday of March 
7th, 02.

                 Unverified HAO Processing

          Rajeev Koodli, Jari T. Malinen and Charles E. Perkins


This note specifies the author's motivation and current
position. In order to move forward in an efficient manner it
would be beneficial if responses could make it clear they are
- a clarification (by putting CLARIFICATION: in the Subject
   field)
- an issue with a particular point (by ISSUE:)
- disagreement with the conclusion (by CONCLUSION:)

We would also like folks to state for the recommendation whether they
AGREE, CAN TOLERATE, or DISAGREE with them. In case of DISAGREE,
please explain why. 


1. INTRODUCTION
===============

The IPv6 specification [1] requires that every IPv6 node
process the Mobile IPv6 Home Address Option (HAO) [2]. In the
recent analysis of Mobile IPv6, concerns were raised that such a
processing without verifying if the sender actually owned the Home
Address (HoA) could lead to certain security vulnerabilities
[3]. As a consequence, the unverified use of HAO has
not been recommended in the design team recommendation. In this
document, we describe a mechanism that allows a CN to process
unverified HAO as it is currently specified using some implementation
extensions. 

There are two concerns regarding the unverified use of HAO. First, any
node (attacker) may use a CN as a reflector to send packets to one or
more victims without being traced, since the CN's response is sent to
the HoA with the CN's IP address as the source IP address. This is the
traceability problem. As a matter of comparison, if a such a DoS
attack were to happen today, the source IP address in the unsolicited
packet would be the (typically spoofed) IP address of the
sender. Second, as a response to prevent such attacks, source ingress
filtering is used to block certain packets. With HAO, such a mechanism
cannot readily be used. The solution proposed here requires a CN to
include the source IP address of the packet in a response message from
the CN. This allows the owner of the HoA to determine, from the ``tag''
present in the packet, the true originator that caused the CN's
response. It thus provides traceability. Furthermore, a firewall 
filter can be set up to scan for the tag (i.e, the IP address of the
node causing the CN's response) and apply appropriate filtering rules.
Thus, it allows blocking of undesirable packets. 

We use the following acronyms in this document.

BC: Binding Cache
BCE: Binding Cache Entry
BR: Binding request
BDT: Bidirectional Tunneling
GN: A Generic IPv6 Node not using Mobile IPv6
HAO: Home Addess Option
HoA: Home Address

2. SOLUTION OVERVIEW
====================

The basic protocol is described by the following;

1. Packets arriving with HAO initiate tagging by creating an entry in 
   the unverified Binding Cache (BC) that the CN maintains. As a
   data structure, the unverified BC contains HoA and CoA (i.e., the
   sender's IP address). If an entry cannot be created,
   e.g., due to finite storage, then the CN sends a Binding
   Request (BR) indicating that the MN should use either RO or
   Bidirectional Tunneling (BDT). 

2. Packets arriving at the CN's address without HAO but with HoA as
   source IP address remove an existing entry. Care must be taken not
   to remove an entry when the MN reverse tunnels certain (e.g.,
   multicast) packets. For this, the following rule would apply.

            if (srcIPaddr == HoA)
               if (dstIPaddr != CN's IP addr)
                  do not remove tag from unverified BCE

3. If packets arrive with erroneous tags, a Home Agent drops those
   packets. It may optionally send an ICMP destination unreachable
   message in which it includes the correct tag (i.e., the correct CoA
   from its BC) that updates the unverified BCE. Meanwhile, any packet
   from the genuine MN with an HAO would also correct the CN's
   entry. On the other hand, the HA tunnels packets with correct tags
   to the MN. 


3. UNVERIFIED HAO OPERATION
===========================

When it receives a packet with HAO, if there is no entry in
its Binding Cache (BC), the CN inserts the source IP address (CoA) in a
small cache called unverified BC. When a packet needs to be sent to
HoA, the CN tags the packet with this CoA. This is the basic
idea. There are multiple ways in which the unverified BC can be
implemented. Indeed, it can be part of the normal Mobile IPv6 BC with
an appropriate attribute indicating that the tagged entry is
unverified. So, when the CN scans the BC, it would know exactly which
entry to tag and which one not to tag. It has also been suggested in
the mailing list that the unverified BC could be implemented as an
extension in a node's destination cache.

The operation when the CN is communicating with a MN is already
described by the above rules. So, we consider the scenario involving a
Generic IPv6 Node (GN). 

Consider the case where an attacker binds any GN's
address to a bogus or genuine CoA. 

a) When there is no on-going traffic between the CN and the GN;
   - the CN may send packets to the GN with a tag without the GN
     expecting them. The GN's response (TCP Ack, RTCP, etc) would
     wipe out the tag. 
   - the GN itself may initiate a session to the CN, in which case,
     there is no tagging in the CN's response.
   - if the GN's site is configured to filter packets containing
     the tag, those packets will be dropped. Since the unverified
     BCE needs refreshing, the entry will expire unless the 
     attacker keeps updating the entry. In any case, This is similar
     to receiving unsolicited packets in today's Internet. The
     presence of the tag however, allows traceability. 


b) If there is on-going traffic, the CN would start tagging packets
sometime during the session. 
   - if tagged packets reach the GN, there is no harm other than the
     tag overhead itself; the GN may simply ignore the tag and process
     the rest of the packet. Any packet transmission from GN to CN
     will force the CN not to tag. 
  - if an entity such as a firewall discards packets with the tag,
     then the traffic from CN to GN would be ``disrupted''. However,
     the tag disappears when the CN receives a packet from GN (without
     HAO) or if the lifetime of the tag expires whichever is earlier.
     
     Only when the GN is a ``one-way listener'', and the firewall
     is configured to discard such packets, is there a possibility
     to disrupt the traffic up to a maximum of the lifetime of the
     unverified BCE.  For this reason, we suggest a relatively short
     lifetime.

 
4. CN IMPLEMENTATION
====================

What follows is one possible way to implement the protocol on the
CN. There are others.

The CN state machine has two states. In the ``tagging'' state, there
is a tag present for the destination address (HoA) in the unverified
BC and hence the CN tags outgoing packets to that address. In the
``no-tagging'' state, there is no tag present for the HoA, and hence
the CN does not tag the outgoing packets to that address. Note that if
there is no entry corresponding to the destination address, there is
no Mobile IPv6 specific action required. 

The CN state machine can be descibed by the following diagram.

T1 and T2 are two different timers, initially set to zero.


                    ------ (until T2 expires)
                    |    |  
                    |    V
                  ----------    T2 expires
                  |   no   |----------+
                  |tagging |          |
                  |        |          V
                  ----------       ---------
        packet with ^              |       |
     srcIPaddr=HoA  |    +---------| start |
                    |    |HAO pkt  |       |
                    |    V         ---------
                  ----------           ^
                  |        |           |
                  |tagging |-----------+
                  |        |    T1 expires
                  ----------
                    ^    |
                    |    |  
                    ------ (until T1 expires)



1. The CN begins in the ``start'' state. If it receives a packet with
HAO, it moves to tagging state. If it does not, there is no special
action required. It moves back to ``start'' state from ``(no)tagging''
state if timer (T2)T1 expires.
 
2. When in tagging state if it receives a packet without HAO but with
HoA as the source IP address, and CN's address as the destination
address, the CN transitions to no-tagging state. However, if the
destination address in the received packet is 
not the CN's address (a multicast address for example), then it
remains in the tagging state. When it makes a transition
from tagging to no-tagging state, it remains in that state until a
randomized ``standby'' timer (T2) expires. 

3. When in no-tagging state, the packets without HAO are processed
normally. Those with HAO are silently discarded. When timer T2
expires, the CN moves to start state where it will start accepting
packets with HAO.

The net effect of this behavior is that when there is an attempt to
introduce a tag maliciously, there is quick repair and longer timeout
before the tag can appear again; on the other hand, if a MN moves away
from home and starts using HAO, those packets would be tagged
rightfully. The special case when the MN uses HAO for some packets but
reverse tunnels others is handled by the rule specified in Section 2.

The entries in the unverified BC may be subject to garbage
collection. When doing so, removing the active entries is not
recommended. In particular, if the CN is in no-tagging state with
T2 being non-zero, removing such an entry would mean that the CN
transitions to start state where it would accept HAO packets (as
opposed to disallowing HAO packets until T2 expires).

The typical values for both T1 and T2 are in seconds. The values for
T1 and T2 should be chosen based on the following guidelines. Note
that if an attacker introduces a spurious tag in the on-going
communication between the CN and the GN, then those tagged packets may
be dropped by a firewall. While the CN transitions immediately back to
no-tagging state upon receiving a packet without HAO from GN, in order
to reduce the number of potential packet losses in case the GN does
not send packets (while packets are being dropped by its firewall) to
CN, the value chosen for T1 should be short, 
perhaps of the order of few seconds. At the same time, the value
chosen for T1 should be sufficiently larger than the inter-packet
times so that the CN resides in tagging state long enough for a
genuine MN. We recommend using 4 seconds for T1. 
On the other hand, the value chosen for T2 should disallow introducing
a spurios tag by an attacker. Thus, this value should be relatively
larger, perhaps of the order of 10's of seconds. Note that a MN should
not force a CN to enter no-tagging state unless it is returning
home. The reverse tunneled packets do not make the CN enter no-tagging
state.

The state machine is summarized in the following table.

State           Event    ->  New state         Action

 start          non-HAO   -> no state change      -
 start          HAO pkt   -> tag,              start T1
 tag            HAO pkt   -> no state change,  update T1
 tag         T1 expires   -> start,               -
 tag           non-HAO    -> no-tag,      start T2, reset T1
no-tag          HAO       -> no-tag,      drop packet
no-tag       T2 expires   -> start,               -
no-tag          non-HAO   -> no state change,     -


5. SIMULTANEOUS USE OF HAO AND REVERSE TUNNELING
=================================================

A MN may wish to simultaneously use, for whatever reasons, both HAO
and reverse tunneling. If a MN needs to use reverse tunneling while it
is using HAO, it should use HAO on those packets that it reverse
tunnels. Not doing so _could_ make some of its HAO packets to be
dropped, i.e., those HAO packets that arrive when the CN is in
no-tagging state. The exact number of packets that might be dropped
depends on, among other things, the holding time in no-tagging state,
and the likelihood of MN generating packets with HAO while the CN is in
no-tagging state. 


5. RECOMMENDATION
==================

It appears that with the proposed mechanism, the concerns raised
regarding the unverified HAO processing can be effectively
addressed. While the proposed mechanism may not be perfect, it
offers disincentives for an attacker to do harm and provides
sufficient correcting ability for a genuine node so that any potential
disruption can be quickly repaired. 

Recommendation R1 : We recommend that unverified HAO processing be
done according to the rules specified in Section 2.

I don't understand what problem this part is solving.
It seems to mandate that Home Agents (a kind of routers) inspect the
content of the packets they forward into a tunnel to a MN, which isn't
good for performance.
The ICMP error to "correct" the tag seems a bit odd, since the reason
the tag has a particular value might be because an attacker is sending
packets with a HAO but with a different CoA ( = IP source address)
than the MN is using so I think you want to keep that "bad" tag and not
"correct" it.

ISSUE: I think this is an understatement of the problem since this
issue appears e.g. with normal TCP connections and not just one-way listeners.
If the CN is sending TCP data segments and those do not reach the MN due
to the tag and firewall, the the MN will not send any TCP ACK segments
that will remove the tag.

When an MN does this I assume it will send packets using triagular routing
with
	source = CoA, HAO = HoA
and using reverse tunneling with
	source = HoA, HAO = HoA
since the IP source address must be topologically correct.
Did I understand this correctly?

In that case what will the tags contain - the source address for the 
most recently received HAO packet?

What about an attacker than injects a packet with
	source = X, HOA = HoA
while the MN is using triangular routing. The writeup doesn't say
for how long time the tag would contain X vs. the original CoA.
If there is a significant rate of triagular packets from the real MN
I think an attacker might be able to "hide" its packets depending on
the details of how the tag value is replaced.
So I think those rules need to be understood to analyze this further.

  Erik

The MN is isolated from the receipt of packets with spurious tags. In this
sense, the Home Agent offers filtering ability. On the other hand, the
protocol still works fine without assistance from the Home Agent.

That's possible if a CN is able to tell the difference
between an attacker, a MN and an HA. Since the ICMP error is sent by
the HA, the CN could make use of the message to both keep the
``bad'' tag for diagnostics and correct the entry as well.

There are two cases a) and b) considered in Section 3, of which a) addresses
this aspect. When there is no on-going traffic between CN and GN, and if a
CN tags packets, those packets _may_ get dropped depending on the firewall
filter. However, since the timer for tagging state is shorter, no response from
GN would make CN to revert to start state.

Yes.

If source = HoA and HAO = HoA, the CN neither updates the tag
not does it remove the tag. This needs to be specified as such in
the document.

Since the CN cannot distinguish between the attacker and the MN,
it updates the tag right away. This is fairly obvious and thus I did not
add any text on this..However, those packets still reach
the Home Agent and the HA could correct the CN's entry. One
thing that might be useful to consider is that instead of dropping the packet
containing X as a tag, the HA may tunnel that packet also
to the MN. So, the MN always receives packets from the CN.

An existing tag is updated right away if the CoA is different. So,
an attacker's source address is seen in the next outgoing packet
from the CN.

Hopefully a quick question:

In the past, there were a number of proposals for RR, e.g., bu-3way and
bake/2.  Since then, security analysis has shown that two sets of
messages, 1a/b and 2a/b from the DT recommendation, should be involved. 
However, not much has been said about which technique would be most
appropriate to extend with the extra messaging.  Did the DT have a
particular technique in mind?

To be a bit more clear in what I'm after, is the WG leaning toward a)
using cookies that are returned to the CN (a la bu-3way), or b) partial
keys that are then used to authenticate the BU (a la bake/2).  If the
answer is option a, then I would imagine two separate cookies would be
sent, one over each path, and that both would be included in the final
BU.  Is that correct?  For option b, would the key generated by an
initial run of RR be reusable for BU refreshes if the node does not move
(I think that this is something Charlie wants).

In general, I'd like to get an idea of what the messages will look like
and exactly what information would need to be carried in each.

thanx in advance,
Bob

Good question. Recently, there was some discussion on the related
topic. While doing RR, if we can establish a shared secret at CN,
then we can avoid, at least partially, the RR messages even when
the MN moves. For instance, with a shared secret, the MN does't have
to establish that it owns the Home Address (through the so-called HoA
RR tests) until the secret lifetime expires.

I am also looking for the exact nature of the messages. The following are
additional likely candidates in these messages

- indication as to which particular Binding Authorization mechanism
   to be used. This is likely to be part of the BU itself
- piggybacking indication

That never occurred to me. (using MH is unknown for RFC 2401
approach). I dont think I want to use that method. Will get
back to this later... Connectathon is going on. sorry.....

Note: I haven't followed UnvHAO discussion at all, so there will probably 

be some misunderstandings.

High level view: is this intended as a completele replacement of the
current mechanism?  If HAO is authenticated, would it be ok to pass it as
before?

Another high level view: this *seems* to make DoS more traceable [however,
I'm not sure if significant enough numbers of vendors ever log the tag,
and the only way to get it would be to capture the packet and decode it
from hex].  However, this doesn't address the problem of being able to
send e.g. reflected UDP exploits (sure, there's a tag there but does a
script-kiddie care?).

Am I missing something blatantly obvious, but why wouldn't the simpler 
approach work?:

 if (dstIPaddr = CN's IP addr)
   if (srcIPaddr == HoA)
     remove tag 

I think this satisfies the rules above, *AND* more importantly, can be 
really implemented -- the proposed solution seems awfully intrusive to me
(must add checks like that in the forwarding path, probably) -- it seems 
much better to check for destination first.

Would Home Agent revealing mapping between Home Address and CoA be 
counter-productive: there might be reasons to keep this secret from the 
prying eyes?  Did I miss something?

You make an assumption that there is a BC in every CN.. that may not
necessarily be the case...

[skip the actual implementation etc.]

	Title		: MIPv6 BU Attacks and Defenses
	Author(s)	: T. Aura, j. Arkko

	Pages		: 27
	Date		: 04-Mar-02
	
This document overviews attacks against mobile and fixed IP nodes 
by exploiting features of the Mobile IPv6 Route Optimization. Many 
of the attacks can be prevented by authenticating the Mobile IPv6 
Binding Updates (BU) but some cannot, some depend on the details of 
the BU protocol, and some denial-of-service attacks specifically 
take advantage of authentication mechanisms.

I can't seem to find the 1a/b... exchanges in the mails.  Could you
please post it here so we can discuss it easily.  Also, might be
useful to find a name for it: say "the generic RR exchange"?

From what I remember, these exchanges have been posted mainly to show
the complete scenarios that are possible to test the return
routability, in order to see where piggybacking can be done, etc..
But I think it will take more time to find exactly what messages are
necessary and what are redundant.

For example, since the first message goes CN->HA->MN, it might be
possible that a subsequent message MN->HA->CN might not need to go
through the HA again.  One way to do this is that HA inserts a token
into the first message transitting through it.  This mechanism would
prevent other verifications, though.

See recommendation 4 in

  http://www.piuha.net/~jarkko/publications/mipv6/RRCGA_Mail.txt

We are working on the specifics of the messages.
Good names names for these would also be welcome,
right now I have:

   Binding Request (BR)
   Return Routability HoA Request (RRHR)
   Return Routability CoA Request (RRCR)
   Return Routability HoA Answer (RRHA)
   Return Routability CoA Answer (RRCA)
   Binding Update (BU)
   Binding Acknowledgement (BA)

But needless to say, I'm not very pleased
with the above names...

My point is that the ICMP error to "correct" the tag will make it impossible
to trace the attacker.
Suppose the CN gets HOA packets from the MN (src = CoA)
so that it is in tagging state.
Then packets arrive with the right HoA but with src = X.
This presumably (writeup isn't clear) causes the the CN to change the tag
in the unvHAO entry so say "tag with X".
Thus the HA or MN can tell that something is odd because of the tag not
being the CoA.
But if the HA "corrects" this so that the CN will tag with the CoA
then you are effective allowing the attacker to circumvent ingress
filtering and use the CoA as the source i.e. the victim MN can't tell
that the reflected packets originated from X any more.

So I don't think the CN can "correct" the entry since that would remove
the traceability.

I agree that the timers limit the time of any black holes.
But my issue was with the description of the problem being limited
to one-way listeners when the problem in fact applies to things like
TCP uni-directional data transfer.

OK - makes sense.

See above why you can't have the HA correct the tag at the CN.

It seems like the CN always need to take the most recent received 
HAO value (with the above exception for source = HoA and HAO = HoA)
and use that to tag outgoing packets.

But this would make it possible for an off-path attacker, which can send at
least as many packets per second as the MN, to prevent any packets from
making it in the reverse direction by sending packets with HAO and src=X -
with high probability the tag entry would contain X and not the CoA.

Am I missing something?

Good naming schemes are indeed difficult to find :-)

Is this the intended name association?:

Return Routability HoA Request (RRHR)   1a. MN(HoA)--->HA--->CN     
Return Routability CoA Request (RRCR)   1b. MN(CoA)--------->CN     
Return Routability HoA Answer  (RRHA)   2a. CN-------->HA--->MN(HoA)
Binding Request                (BR)     2b. CN-------------->MN(CoA)
Return Routability CoA Answer  (RRCA)   3.  MN(CoA)--------->CN     

I'm not sure but I can't figure out a better association.  Please
enlighten.  I would propose:

Reverse Binding Warning        (RBW)    1a. MN(HoA)--->HA
                               (RBW)                   HA--->CN     
Binding Warning                (BW)     1b. MN(CoA)--------->CN     
Reverse Binding Request        (RBR)    2a. CN-------->HA
                               (RBR)                   HA--->MN(HoA)
Binding Request                (BR)     2b. CN-------------->MN(CoA)
RR Binding Update              (RR-BU)  3.  MN(CoA)--------->CN     

BW is from BAKE.  BU3WAY calls it Binding Update Request, in danger of
being abbreviated to Binding Request.  All 'reverse' messages transit
the HA, instead of going directly, like in "reverse tunnelling".  I
separated the reverse messages in two, but I doubt naming them is of
any use.

> The design team recommends both CoA and HoA tests to be performed

Which of the above messages are part of the CoA test and which are
part of the HoA test?  I'm asking because I'm trying to figure out
what each of these tests protects.

Thanks,

Alex

The association is RRHR = 1a, RRCR = 1b, RRHA = 2a, RRCA = 2b,
and BU  = 3. BR and BA are then as they have always been.

RRHR and RRHA are part of the HoA test, RRCR and RRCA are
part of the CoA test, and BU draws everything together. Basically,
the -R messages are requests to start the tests, and don't contain
any real information. The -A messages are the real tests, and the
test ends with BU using data learned in the test messages.

How about

1a = HoA Test Init (HTI)
1b = CoA Test Init (CTI)
2a = HoA Test (HT)
2b = CoA Test (CT)
3 = BU

Aha, that makes sense thanks.

Getting back to the recommendation:

In order to avoid the same reflection problems, the inverse is also
valid: a BU authorization request sent from the HoA should not be
answered to the CoA.  Right?

Right. For the same HoA, if there is a new CoA, that could be
because the MN moved. The CN updates the tag right away.

Right. That's the idea.

I meant when the CN receives the ICMP error, it can potentially log
the existing tag entry and then correct it with what the HA sent. But,
I agree with you that doing both has its overhead; extra storage for the
bad tag. Also, from a protocol perspective, it is not necessary that the
tag is a `good' one; of course I would like it be a good one :-)

Let's see what is the effect.

- what is in the tag is less important compared to the presence of tag itself.
    So, packets should not be dropped because tag=X.
   Having said this, what is in the tag is important for diagnostics.
- if the CN sends an unsolicited packet because the attacker initiated
    a response, that response would contain the tag. So, there is traceability
- if the CN is responding to the MN's packets, but includes tag=X, what's
   the harm ? The MN (or the HA) can find out that someone is attempting
   to use the MN'a HoA. The packet as such is fine; in fact, it has important
   traceability information.

So, an attacker cannot disrupt the flow to a MN. Hope this is useful..

But in that case I can be at home and flood HTI's to CN that will
flood the attacked MN with with CT's right?

Right, but that's no different from regular packets. The issue
is having a third address somewhere in the packet that redirects
you to another place, and bypasses possible ingress filtering
that was performed on your packets. As long as answers go
where requests came from, we are as safe as we can be in
the current internet.

Aha, I see your above "first do no harm" point.  I fail to see,
however, the exact meaning probably because I don't know what exactly
goes into each RR message.

I was trying to say that the "reflection" thing is valid the other way
around too, and the mechanisms used to protect against it (I have rate
limiting in mind) should work for the first one too, this leading to
possibly not needing the HTI.

But I find it difficult to look at a protocol to which I can only make
assumptions of how it works.  I probably need to wait for when further
refinements come out.

I think the content of the tag is important for traceback reasons
as well as for filtering reasons at a HA.

For instance, if an attacker sending packets with src=X and HOA=HoA
can cause packets to be reflected from the CN with dst=HoA, src=CN, tag=CoA
then it is as if the attacker had managed to send a packet
with src=CoA, HOA=HoA. The purpose of this exercise is to at least be
able to trace such cases in order for the MN (or HA) to get the value X
i.e. to know the IP address of the attacker.

> - if the CN sends an unsolicited packet because the attacker initiated

That assumes that the MN doesn't send packets to the CN with such timing that
the unvHAO cache entry always contains tag=CoA when the CN sends packets
(and never tag=X when the CN sends packets).
This is hard to predict since it depends on the timing patterns
of the application and transport protocols as well as the ability of the 
attacker to predict those patterns.

One way of trying to capture this is by asking a question about the 
requirements.

Imagine that P percent of the packets arriving at the CN have
	src=X, HOA=HoA
and 100-P percent have
	src = CoA, HOA=HoA
Then what is an acceptable range of percentage of packets sent
by the CN that have tag=X? (Call this value Q)
Is zero ok? Is close to zero ok? Should it be same order of magnitude as P?
Is 100% ok?

For one thing your writeup says that the HA is free (should?) drop such
packets.
If P is 10% then if Q becomes 100% then the off-path attacker has managed
a DoS attack against the MNs traffic.
If P is 10% makes Q become 0% then the off-path attacker has managed to do
undetectable reflection attacks.
 
> So, an attacker cannot disrupt the flow to a MN. Hope this is useful..

See above.

I think requiring that the HA pass packets indepedent of the tag value (i.e.
the tag value is purely for traceability) at least doesn't cause
problems in the case when Q becomes 100%.

Hmm..

The response to a HTI would be a HT, and the response to a CTI would be
a CT.
Thus the response it always sent to the IP source address of the request/init.
Hence there is no reflection danger.

Sir,
I am trying to implement the draft "NAT traversal using UDP tunneling
draft". I have the setup (described at the end of the email) running but I
am confused about something. It would be great if you can help me out with this.

I am either doing something terribly
wrong if I am thinking that I should configure the NAT
on the gateway (Testbed9) or I am confused. Lets
assume the the NAT is on the gateway(testbed9) and see
what happens. The MN on testbed23 which is behind the
NAT GW on testbed9 will send a registration request to
HA(Testbed31). Ok, so the NAT translates the IP source
address in the IP header of that packet while it is
flowing out of the gateway testbed9. HA gets that
packet. But even though the source IP address in the
IP header has been changed from 10.50.50.50 to
something else it still reads in the Registration
Request message that the care of address is
10.50.50.50. It looks at that and creates a mobility
binding in its kernel which associates the 10.50.50.50
care of address and its original home IP address. Next
time it gets a packet destined for mobile node's
original home IP address, it can do the IP-IP
encapsulation (lower IP header has destn address as
original IP address of the MN and upper IP has destn
address as care-of-address). The packet can now reach
the MN if testbed31 has a route to 10.50.50.50. Right
now, it does,through the GW although ideally the
10.50.50.50 should be hidden behind the NAT and no
host outside the NAT should have a route to it through
the NAT. But since the MN revealed its care-of-address
which was private, to HA, HA can reach the MN. Now
lets assume that in the ideal case HA has a route till
only the gateway and not to 10.50.50.50. The packet HA
created/encapsulated shows an outer IP destn Address
as 10.50.50.50. The HA woulndt know what to do with it
and puts it out on the default router. How would the
UDP header help in this case? Even if the UDP header
is inserted between the two IP headers, the outer IP
destn address is still 10.50.50.50 and not a public
address the NAT translated the 10.50.50.50 to. Even if
the gateway with NAT on it picks it up (if I make that
as a default router) it does not need extra info about
the UDP port cause the packet exclusively says that it
is addressed to 10.50.50.50. Now, what if the NAT is
on the MN itself? Will the care of address field in
the registration reuqest also be translated? I dont
think so. The draft too says that there is a expected
dicrpeancy between the IP source address in the IP
header that is translated and the care-of-address
field in the regitration request which is not. If HA
was looking at the IP source address of the
registration to gain info about the care-of-address
then everything fits in place. But the HA, atleast in
the Mosquito Net implementation, looks directly at the
care-of-address field of the reg req message which is
left untranslated.
Your thoughts on this????

We got the Mosquito Net mobilei implementation running with the

I think we are saying the same thing.. Note that I didn't say the

Actually, there is no such assumption. In any case,

- if the MN did not send any packets, CN's packets will contain tag=X.
- if the MN did send packets, tag=CoA

I don't know what you are trying to convey here..

- if tag=X, you know someone is trying to introduce a spurious tag.
- _if_ it so happens that you never see tag=X, the attacker has not succeeded
    in actually introducing the spurious tag
- if some packets contain tag=X, others contain tag=CoA, that's still ok; i.e.,
   there is no disruption.

Am I missing something here from a protocol perspective ?

In a previous e-mail, I did mention that we should consider HA tunneling
all packets regardless of the tag value. See below.

"Since ..... One
thing that might be useful to consider is that instead of dropping the packet
containing X as a tag, the HA may tunnel that packet also
to the MN. So, the MN always receives packets from the CN."

This cannot happen when the HA tunnels all packets.

For Q to be 0%, there has to be correcting operation, meaning packet flow
from the MN in such a manner that it exactly coincides with removing every
single tag=X, something you have expressed your own reservations above in
"That assumes that the MN doesn't send packets to the CN with such timing that
the unvHAO cache entry always contains tag=CoA when the CN sends packets
(and never tag=X when the CN sends packets).
This is hard to predict since it depends on the timing patterns
of the application and transport protocols as well as the ability of the
attacker to predict those patterns."

I did mention this in a previous e-mail. Looks like it is good thing to specify
the HA to tunnel all packets.

> - if tag=X, you know someone is trying to introduce a spurious tag.

Or trying to use the CN as a reflector for DoS purposes.
This is fine in the sense that it is observable by the MN (or HA) - they
can see the value X.

> - _if_ it so happens that you never see tag=X, the attacker has not succeeded
>     in actually introducing the spurious tag

Introducing a spurios tag isn't the original security problem we tried to
address, but a security problem which appeared in earlier versions of
your proposal.
The original security problem is reflection attacks using HAO that can
 - not be prevented using ingress filtering
 - not be detected

Thus my issue is about the original security problem.
What if the all packets arrive at the HA and MN with tag=CoA but the 
attacker X is in fact injecting 10 Mbps per second of packets (with
src=X, HAO=HoA) that get reflected to the poor MN (all with tag=CoA).
See below for examples.

> - if some packets contain tag=X, others contain tag=CoA, that's still ok; i.e.,
>    there is no disruption.

Yes, as long as you remove the suggestion that says:
3. If packets arrive with erroneous tags, a Home Agent drops those
   packets. It may optionally send an ICMP destination unreachable
   message in which it includes the correct tag (i.e., the correct CoA
   from its BC) that updates the unverified BCE. Meanwhile, any packet
   from the genuine MN with an HAO would also correct the CN's
   entry. On the other hand, the HA tunnels packets with correct tags
   to the MN. 
and instead require the HA and MN to process packets indepedent of
their tag value.

When the CN receives a mix of packets with src=X,HAO=HoA and src=CoA,HAO=HoA
it will hopefully mark a mix of packets with tag=X and tag=CoA
(and we need to figure out to ensure that at least some packets have tag=X
for traceability).

My point is that the tag value can't be use to filter out the bad
packets because there will not be any correlation between
the src of a packet received at the CN and the tag value of the response
to that packet when there are multiple packets in progress.

For example, if the attacker sends TCP SYN packets packets while the 
real MN is doing VoIP with the CN we could have this time line at the CN:
	src=CoA,HAO=HoA VoIP UDP packet received by IP
		tag value set to CoA
	src=CoA,HAO=HoA VoIP UDP packet received by IP
	src=CoA,HAO=HoA VoIP UDP packet received by IP
	src=X,HAO=HoA tcp syn port 80 received by IP
		tag value set to X
	VoIP UDP packet sent by IP - gets tagged with X
	VoIP UDP packet sent by IP - gets tagged with X
	VoIP UDP packet sent by IP - gets tagged with X
	src=CoA,HAO=HoA VoIP UDP packet received by IP
		tag value set to CoA
	TCP SYN ack sent by IP - gets tagged with CoA
	<repeat>

In the above extreme example the "good" packets all the get the "bad" X tag
and  the reflected attack packets get the "good" CoA tag.

Thus the HA and/or CN can't use the tag value to filter out the reflected
packets.

Reordering the packets in the above example we can also get
	src=CoA,HAO=HoA VoIP UDP packet received by IP
		tag value set to CoA
	src=CoA,HAO=HoA VoIP UDP packet received by IP
	src=CoA,HAO=HoA VoIP UDP packet received by IP
	src=X,HAO=HoA tcp syn port 80 received by IP
		tag value set to X
	src=CoA,HAO=HoA VoIP UDP packet received by IP
		tag value set to CoA
	VoIP UDP packet sent by IP - gets tagged with CoA
	VoIP UDP packet sent by IP - gets tagged with CoA
	VoIP UDP packet sent by IP - gets tagged with CoA
	TCP SYN ack sent by IP - gets tagged with CoA
	<repeat>

Thus none of the packets get tagged with X. This means that the HA and/or MN
can't even tell that they are subject to a DoS reflection attack using the
content of the tags.

A spurious tag means the attacker introduces his source IP address. There is
no security problem with it.

It is a good "what if". If the attacker is injecting at the rate you mention,
I don't see how even a small percentage of packets do not contain tag=X,
and hence get traced.
I will wait for your examples..

I don't know why this is still lingering..

- in an earlier e-mail I said the HA tunneling all packets is a good thing
- in my previous e-mail I said such a specification would be a good thing.

Did I indicate any reservations otherwise ? In any case, please note that I have
already agreed to this (after proposing it even earlier).

You didn't respond to your own observation in the previous e-mail.

"That assumes that the MN doesn't send packets to the CN with such timing that
the unvHAO cache entry always contains tag=CoA when the CN sends packets
(and never tag=X when the CN sends packets).
This is hard to predict since it depends on the timing patterns
of the application and transport protocols as well as the ability of the
attacker to predict those patterns."

If the tag!=CoA, you know there is an attempt to use HoA. If your
argument is against using filtering, that's valid. Please also
specify where in the current text you would like this to be noted.

Ok. I am willing to include this "extreme example" in the document. You
can still ascertain that there is an attempt to cause reflection attack.

In this particular case, you cannot determine the source of TCP SYN. Here is a
way to resolve this: the CN must `commit' a new update only after sending at least
one packet with the existing tag!  A counter is set to one (or some small integer to

account for packet losses) when a new CoA (such as X) is received. When the MN's
VoIP packet is received, its CoA does not replace X until the counter is zero. The
counter is decremented every time an entry is tagged.
Downside: extra storage for another address. Still does not necessarily provide
the ability to put the bad tag on the bad packet. However, it provides the alarm
ability.

This is an observation that makes me to think that using any
kind of cache for tagging is going to be very very hard.  In fact,
it looks like getting tagging "right", i.e. each packet is tagged
with exactly the source address that triggered its sending, is
impossible with caching techniques.  Changing the API, as we discussed
earlier, seems to fix the problem, and make tagging possible.

These observations lead me, personally, to the opinion that we should
make triangular routing and tagging an option.  It looks like it will
be extremely hard to require this from all CNs.  Indeed, it looks
much easier to require RR based RO from all CNs than this HAO
prosessing and tagging support.

As an option this seems to be fine, though, since the
problems are related to local implementation at the CN, not
the method as such.  That is, *assuming* that the CN does
tagging exactly correctly, it does not seem to open up new
security problems.  The hard part is getting the tagging
implemented correctly.

I think I've already seen somewhere HTI short for Handoff Transfer

The reason I brought it up this time was that it would seem useful
for the HA to be able to filter such reflected DoS packets as you had
originally suggested. But the behavior of the tagging doesn't allow it.
Sorry for not making this clear.

I'm sufficiently confused by what problem we are trying to solve here
to not be able to suggest text.

Is the only problem we are trying to solve the ability for the MN/HA to tell
that it is likely under a reflection attack? It seems like it could tell
that e.g. by observing all the SYN ACK packets in my example.
Or are we also trying to give the MN/HA the tag(s) associated with the
attackers so that they could try to convince entities between the CN
and those attackers to filter out those packets?
(As already pointed out no filtering can be done between the CN and HA
on the tag content.)

It would be useful to agree on the goals before proceeding.
The goals of the DT proposal was "do no harm" i.e. don't open up new ways
that an attacker can circumvent prevention measures like ingress filtering
as well as not making it harder to detect/traceback the attackers.
As far as I can tell the goals of the unvHAO proposal are different, but
I don't have a good handle on exactly what the security goals are here.

Once we know what the goals are we could actual discuss something closer
to proportial tagging as well.
Imagine where a MN is flooded due to multiple attackers.
It would be benefitial to be able to determine which source addresses
cause the most amount of flooding.
So there could be a small list of unvHAO source addresses that have been 
seen recently (LRU  replacement) with a counter of how many have been seen.
Those counters then effect the proportion of the tags.

Sure, this isn't capable to placing the bad tags on the bad packets either.

Just to clarify, are you saying that we should make "exact tagging"
an option (as opposed to the "cached/approximate tagging" we have
been discussing recently)

If it is optional we need the ability for the MN to determine whether
it can send unvHAO to a given CN. Seems to require a roundtrip exchange to
determine this.

Also, is the idea that nodes which implement exact tagging implement it
for all transports i.e. for UDP as well as TCP, ICMP echo, SCTP, etc?
The reason I ask is that it is easier to implement this as long as the 
application doesn't need to get involved, which it does for UDP at least.

Which means we could have:

1a = HoA Test Init (HoTI)
1b = CoA Test Init (CoTI)
2a = HoA Test (HoT)
2b = CoA Test (CoT)
3 = BU

Don't know if these are any better ;)

I can use them, even if they're a bit long :-)

One can notice that CoT is very close in meaning to a BR.  Thus, we
can consider that a normal packet that has a BR option will have an
additional CoT option.  This, of course, modulo the piggybacking
discussion.

Also, a HoT can be considered as a BR whose destination address is the
HA address with the Home Address option of the MN.  Again, modulo the
piggybacking discussion.

Thus only HoTI and CoTI are new messages to be defined.

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

	Title		: Mobile IP NAT/NAPT Traversal using UDP Tunnelling
	Author(s)	: H. Levkowetz, S. Vaarala
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mobileip-nat-traversal-01.txt
	Pages		: 27
	Date		: 05-Mar-02
	
Mobile IP's datagram tunnelling is incompatible with Network Address
Translation (NAT).  This document presents extensions to the Mobile
IP protocol and a tunnelling method which permits mobile nodes using
Mobile IP to operate in private address networks which are separated
from the public internet by NAT devices.  The NAT traversal is based
on using the Mobile IP Home Agent UDP port for encapsulated data
traffic.

I wasn't expecting you to do so :-) . I was referring to your text that I had

Let me try to clarify.

- provide traceability. This would be more than detecting a reflection
   attack is underway.
- allow for filtering. Here I see the confusion that arose above. I was
    thinking of filtering between CN and a GN, BTW. This was motivated
    by the fact that a GN's traffic should not be harmed, a point that Pekka
    Nikander had brought up earlier.. In that case, the
    packet mix would be between tag=X and no-tag. It is easier to
    distinguish; yet some good packets may get tagged with X, and may
    get dropped by a firewall. However, there is quick recovery. This is in
    the document, Section 3.
   As you rightly point out, this harder (due to approximate tagging) between
   CN and HA. However, as you say, you could offer such a possibility
   between CN and the attacker.
   [GN= Generic (non-mobile) IPv6 Node, MN at home]

The goals are not any different. The Introduction section refers to
traceability and filtering. If I could summarize this discussion, the proposal
- offers traceability
- facilitates filtering between CN and GN. It helps to see two different cases.
   First, e.g., the CN sends a TCP SYN ACK with tag=X. It gets dropped, which is
   what should happen. Second, during on-going session(s), tag=X
   appears, and the packet gets dropped. In this case, the min of {timer T1,
   next pkt arrival} wipes the tag out. Here, there is quick recovery from
   disruption.

I hope this is helpful..

Hopefully the above is useful. To summarize again, always offer traceability and
facilitate filtering with quick recovery (between CN and GN) were what we have
attempted to address. Between a MN and CN, the proposal relies on `auto repair'.

What should we do next ? I want to move forward :-)

Hello Erik,

I think it's time to step back and take a look at the overall
situation in the discussion about Home Address Options (HAO).

In order to avoid the need to read zillions of previous notes,
I'd summarize the current status of the discussion as follows:

- We have defined "Unverified HAO" to be one for which the
  correspondent node (CN) cannot be sure that the care-of address
  is correct, and "Verified HAO" to be one for which the correspondent
  node has a Binding Cache entry, perhaps secured by the return
  routability test.

- We have proposed a scheme by which the CN tags outgoing
  packets with the care-of address claimed in a previously
  received unverified HAO.

- There are cases where it is difficult to tag outgoing packets in
  a way so that the outgoing packets are tagged with the same care-of
  address claimed in the incoming packet that evoked the response.

I believe that it is important to get this tagging capability
represented in the upcoming base Mobile IPv6 specification.
Here is a comparison of the advantages and disadvantages, on 
which we can try to make the decision.

    Unverified HAO allowable	Unverified HAO prohibited

-   Robust to cache entry       If CN times out or loses a Binding
    timeout and reclamation     Cache entry, MN traffic is blackholed

-   Fast response to packets    Delays for either reverse tunneling
    initiated by MN             or Binding Cache Entry establishment.
                                Worse if CN implements ONLY RR.

-   "Do No Harm" satisfied      Reverse tunneling and black-holing
                                is a "harm"

-   Vulnerability == "way_small"   Vulnerability == 0.


Briefly, I think that with the current tagging scheme, the
vulnerability is so microscopic, and the benefits quite
clearly worthwhile, that we should go for it.
To be completely honest, I do not have data to determine
whether the vulnerability is completely negligible, or
only very, very small.  I think that one could guesstimate
the likelihood of the occurrences that you described, based
on IP reordering pprobabilities, and it surely is a tiny
probability.   We have already designed ingress filtering
techniques that almost completely eliminate any lingering
abilities for attackers to mount this highly improbable attack.

Furthermore, I suggest that the tagging be considered a typical
part of a procedure to initiate the Return Routability establishment
for a Binding Cache entry.  This limits the window of vulnerability
even more.  It seems to be very natural.  It would not MANDATE
that the mobile node initiate the RR procedure, but that would
be the typical case, and it would be the case we should design
for general deployment.

We only have to specify in the upcoming draft what the format
of the tag should be, and that the CN is required to keep count
of the incoming unverified HAOs.  The way that the CN determines
what to put in the tag can be an appendix, and would pretty much
conform to the latest discussion that you have had with Rajeev.
The protocol would not depend on the degree of precision by
which the CN can determine the correct tag.  As has been
discussed, I can imagine that in the future a better method
(perhaps involving changes to the socket structure) could be
devised in the future, without changing the format of the tag.
That is why I believe this material belongs in the appendix.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Which vulnerability?

If DoS reflecting is a vulnerability, I think I agree; packets will be 
tagged with something which can be traced (even though tracing may be very 
difficult at first because systems wouldn't support it).

If being able to spoof one's source address is a vulnerability, I don't 
think the proposal addresses this..?

I was referring to Erik's observation that, given Rajeev's
state-based "best-effort" tagging proposal, packet reordering
at the CN could cause packets to be sent out with the "wrong"
tag.  The malicious care-of address would still be observable,
albeit in a different packet.  But this would be a very rare
occurrence.

That is true.  We are assuming ingress filtering applies.
If not, then anyway there is no real discussion because
in that case the whole HAO design is just as traceable as
non-ingress filtered packets (i.e., not).

Charlie P.

We may or may not be able to assume that.  

But unless ingress filtering is "smart" (c.f. Francis' approach), it won't
help for the address in HAO case: that can still be spoofed regardless of 
ingress filtering.

There are some small variations there but nothing earth-shattering.

[GM]This firewall where would it be physically and which of the node(s) is
it providing these services for and how do you propose that the state
necessary to perform the filtering gets installed in the node(s). I have
inferred you mean some sort of external firewall to these victim nodes and
not a firewall on the hosts themselves where the net gain would be
negligable from a processing standpoint; though I am not certain this is
what you mean? Firewall the HA, MN, CN, Firewall all nodes, etc..? I am
concerned about the route optimisation getting blocked altogether.

[GM]Clarification:
What would prevent another node in between the HA and the CN from destroying
the entry for a valid MN? - asside1 - not sure if this is an anyworse
problem because a TCP reset could have similar affects unless access control
lists are used with standard non-mobile nodes? Note-all this recent MIPv6
work seems to be very familiar to the experimental VISA work with an end to
end spin that went on in the late 80's.

[GM] Clarification: Some may see a malicious cache exhaustion hole unless
the HA sends an indication to the CN that the MN is bogus. Of course the CN
would still have to store the state for the bogus MN in order to drop it or
notify some external trusted firewall to block it on behalf of the CN which
is also an exhaustion hole for the firewall. Is this what you meant by
firewall?

[GM]However, as pointed out earlier, this could certainly be used to disrupt
ongoing communications. I.e. an organization could exploit this to make
another organizations' resources look flaky and/or of poor quality. I think
we have a very recent and vivid example with the mobile IP mail list itself.

[GM] Same as above with the caveat that these disruptions and attack
scenarios exist in the non-mobile IPv6 with (to a lesser extent) or without
(to a greater extent) ingress filtering.

[GM] MITM for a short period - same old no worse response.

[GM] I can live with this; however, cellular operators probably won't like
this unless you build a proxy or something for these updates, etc.. I don't
like the idea that a firewall could block route optimized communications
from occuring. I suspect the default for these firewalls will be to block it
entirely. A completely sucure method with no security holes and that simply
can't be blocked by firewalls seems to be a superior solution in that the
users could actually be guaranteed the functionality.

[GM] My first glance appears that it is not much worse than the threats to
plain old IPv6 without mobility; however, it served to remind us of the
holes that really ought to be plugged first in non-mobile IPv6 before people
go off dumping billions into its deployment. I am very pleased to actually
see some of this work to fix these holes starting up in other WGs. I am also
pleased that at least people have seemed to come to the conclusion that
state must be kept at least on the CN to do any form of route optimization.

[GM] This seems like quite a large and somewhat complex change to possibly
all IPv6 hosts for such a quick decision without interoperability,
simulation etc.. Perhaps a more formal ID that is separate from the IPv6
spec should be done first that clarifies many of the points above. I would
rather have the group find a solution that has no holes and even allows for
route optimization both ways as the state to do it at all is similar. As
usual I am always interested in the question about SHOULD and MUST above.
Even with a hopeful answer to this, I'm a bit leary of such a change for
only half the gain and so late in the game.

Thanks,

Glenn

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; 1. INTRODUCTION</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; =

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; The IPv6 specification [1] requires that every =
IPv6 node</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; process the Mobile IPv6 Home Address Option =
(HAO) [2]. In the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; recent analysis of Mobile IPv6, concerns were =
raised that such a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; processing without verifying if the sender =
actually owned the Home</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; Address (HoA) could lead to certain security =
vulnerabilities</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; [3]. As a consequence, the unverified use of =
HAO has</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; not been recommended in the design team =
recommendation. In this</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; document, we describe a mechanism that allows a =
CN to process</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; unverified HAO as it is currently specified =
using some implementation</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; extensions. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; There are two concerns regarding the unverified =
use of HAO. First, any</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; node (attacker) may use a CN as a reflector to =
send packets to one or</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; more victims without being traced, since the =
CN's response is sent to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; the HoA with the CN's IP address as the source =
IP address. This is the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; traceability problem. As a matter of =
comparison, if a such a DoS</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; attack were to happen today, the source IP =
address in the unsolicited</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; packet would be the (typically spoofed) IP =
address of the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; sender. Second, as a response to prevent such =
attacks, source ingress</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; filtering is used to block certain packets. =
With HAO, such a mechanism</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; cannot readily be used. The solution proposed =
here requires a CN to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; include the source IP address of the packet in =
a response message from</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; the CN. This allows the owner of the HoA to =
determine, from </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; the ``tag''</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; present in the packet, the true originator that =
caused the CN's</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; response. It thus provides traceability. =
Furthermore, a firewall </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; filter can be set up to scan for the tag (i.e, =
the IP address of the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; node causing the CN's response) and apply =
appropriate filtering rules.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; Thus, it allows blocking of undesirable =
packets. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>[GM]This firewall where would it be physically and =
which of the node(s) is it providing these services for and how do you =
propose that the state necessary to perform the filtering gets =
installed in the node(s). I have inferred you mean some sort of =
external firewall to these victim nodes and not a firewall on the hosts =
themselves where the net gain would be negligable from a processing =
standpoint; though I am not certain this is what you mean? Firewall the =
HA, MN, CN, Firewall all nodes, etc..? I am concerned about the route =
optimisation getting blocked altogether.</FONT></P>

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; The basic protocol is described by the =
following;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; 1. Packets arriving with HAO initiate tagging =
by creating an entry in </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the unverified Binding Cache =
(BC) that the CN maintains. As a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; data structure, the =
unverified BC contains HoA and CoA (i.e., the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; sender's IP address). If an =
entry cannot be created,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; e.g., due to finite storage, =
then the CN sends a Binding</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Request (BR) indicating that =
the MN should use either RO or</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Bidirectional Tunneling =
(BDT). </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>Is this cache to be a MUST or a SHOULD for all IPv6 =
nodes?</FONT>

HAO but with HoA as</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; source IP address remove an =
existing entry. Care must be taken not</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; to remove an entry when the =
MN reverse tunnels certain (e.g.,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; multicast) packets. For this, =
the following rule would apply.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>

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

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>[GM]Clarification:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>What would prevent another node in between the HA =
and the CN from destroying the entry for a valid MN? - asside1 - not =
sure if this is an anyworse problem because a TCP reset could have =
similar affects unless access control lists are used with standard =
non-mobile nodes? Note-all this recent MIPv6 work seems to be very =
familiar to the experimental VISA work with an end to end spin that =
went on in the late 80's.</FONT></P>
<BR>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; 3. If packets arrive with erroneous tags, a Home =
Agent drops those</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; packets. It may optionally =
send an ICMP destination unreachable</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; message in which it includes =
the correct tag (i.e., the correct CoA</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; from its BC) that updates the =
unverified BCE. Meanwhile, any packet</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; from the genuine MN with an =
HAO would also correct the CN's</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; entry. On the other hand, the =
HA tunnels packets with correct tags</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; to the MN. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>[GM] Clarification: Some may see a malicious cache =
exhaustion hole unless the HA sends an indication to the CN that the MN =
is bogus. Of course the CN would still have to store the state for the =
bogus MN in order to drop it or notify some external trusted firewall =
to block it on behalf of the CN which is also an exhaustion hole for =
the firewall. Is this what you meant by firewall?</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; 3. UNVERIFIED HAO OPERATION</FONT>

=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D=3D=3D</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; When it receives a packet with HAO, if there is =
no entry in</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; its Binding Cache (BC), the CN inserts the =
source IP address </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; (CoA) in a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; small cache called unverified BC. When a packet =
needs to be sent to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; HoA, the CN tags the packet with this CoA. This =
is the basic</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; idea. There are multiple ways in which the =
unverified BC can be</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; implemented. Indeed, it can be part of the =
normal Mobile IPv6 BC with</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; an appropriate attribute indicating that the =
tagged entry is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; unverified. So, when the CN scans the BC, it =
would know exactly which</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; entry to tag and which one not to tag. It has =
also been suggested in</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; the mailing list that the unverified BC could =
be implemented as an</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; extension in a node's destination cache.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; The operation when the CN is communicating with =
a MN is already</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; described by the above rules. So, we consider =
the scenario involving a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; Generic IPv6 Node (GN). </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; Consider the case where an attacker binds any =
GN's</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; address to a bogus or genuine CoA. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; a) When there is no on-going traffic between =
the CN and the GN;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - the CN may send packets to =
the GN with a tag without the GN</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; expecting them. =
The GN's response (TCP Ack, RTCP, etc) would</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; wipe out the tag. =
</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>[GM]However, as pointed out earlier, this could =
certainly be used to disrupt ongoing communications. I.e. an =
organization could exploit this to make another organizations' =
resources look flaky and/or of poor quality. I think we have a very =
recent and vivid example with the mobile IP mail list =
itself.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - the GN itself may initiate a =
session to the CN, in which case,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; there is no =
tagging in the CN's response.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - if the GN's site is =
configured to filter packets containing</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the tag, those =
packets will be dropped. Since the unverified</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; BCE needs =
refreshing, the entry will expire unless the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; attacker keeps =
updating the entry. In any case, This is similar</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; to receiving =
unsolicited packets in today's Internet. The</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; presence of the =
tag however, allows traceability.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>[GM] Same as above with the caveat that these =
disruptions and attack scenarios exist in the non-mobile IPv6 with (to =
a lesser extent) or without (to a greater extent) ingress filtering. =
</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; b) If there is on-going traffic, the CN would =
start tagging packets</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; sometime during the session. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - if tagged packets reach the =
GN, there is no harm other than the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; tag overhead =
itself; the GN may simply ignore the tag and process</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the rest of the =
packet. Any packet transmission from GN to CN</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; will force the CN =
not to tag. </FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>[GM] MITM for a short period - same old no worse =
response.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; - if an entity such as a firewall =
discards packets with the tag,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; then the traffic =
from CN to GN would be ``disrupted''. However,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the tag =
disappears when the CN receives a packet from GN (without</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; HAO) or if the =
lifetime of the tag expires whichever is earlier.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>[GM] A firewall where and how would it know to =
discard, etc..</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Only when the GN =
is a ``one-way listener'', and the firewall</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; is configured to =
discard such packets, is there a possibility</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; to disrupt the =
traffic up to a maximum of the lifetime of the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; unverified =
BCE.&nbsp; For this reason, we suggest a relatively short</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; lifetime.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>[GM] I can live with this; however, cellular =
operators probably won't like this unless you build a proxy or =
something for these updates, etc.. I don't like the idea that a =
firewall could block route optimized communications from occuring. I =
suspect the default for these firewalls will be to block it entirely. A =
completely sucure method with no security holes and that simply can't =
be blocked by firewalls seems to be a superior solution in that the =
users could actually be guaranteed the functionality.</FONT></P>

Our document does not propose there be firewalls, much less indicate
where they need to be. IF there is a firewall protecting a node, then
such a firewall may drop the tagged packets.
I am not sure I understand your concern regarding RO packets
being blocked. I don't see how they will be blocked. On the other
hand, a tag may follow the same format as RO packet (RH type 2).
Is that your concern ? I would support using the same format, but
I agree that a firewall must not drop packets insensitively.

> Is this cache to be a MUST or a SHOULD for all IPv6 nodes?

Tagging is MUST. Since it could be implemented differently,
the unverified BC is a SHOULD.

In fact some _could_ overwrite it. If it does, it's IP address is seen
in the response packet from the CN and hence could be traced. Also,
a packet from MN with HAO would correct it back.

I an not familiar with the VISA story. Perhaps you could

I see you have interpreted the proposal differently. The CN only
maintains the mapping from HoA to CoA. And, the CoA could
be malicious node's IP address. If a malicious node fills the available
space with multiple HoA's all mapped to the same CoA (which BTW
itself is a red flag),
- any packets from the rightful owners of those HoAs would replace
   the tags
- tags themselves timeout unless there is traffic
- the CN's firewall could set up a filter for the bad CoA.

Does this answer your concern ?

Two things can happen right ?

- packets with tag make it to the GN, which responds back. The tag
    disappears
- GN's firewall drops packets with tags. This might be a good thing
    if the traffic is unsolicited. If it was good traffic, then any
packet
    from GN would remove the tag or the CN times out the tag. Once in
    no-tagging state, the CN stays there for a long time.

See above. Good you point that some of the issues persist. We are

This would be the GN's firewall. As I mentioned
earlier, we do not specify the firewall operation. We
only allow for a firewall to use tags to filter.

Certainly we are not proposing to block RO packets. We are
also not proposing that the firewall block tagged packets.
The text regarding the firewall is there to illustrate the
operation _if_ a firewall blocked tagged packets.

Let me try to clarify few things.

- the requirement (i.e., MUST) is that tagging be specified
    for CNs while processing unverified HAO. As a matter of
    comparison, a CN includes HoA in a routing header when
    verified BC exists.
- there can be multiple implementations supporting the
    above requirement. Each requirement however has to
    ensure that every tag is represented in at least one outgoing
    packet from the CN. This is to ensure that no tag is
    overwritten and hence not traced.
- what we have described in the document is one implementation.
    It has been recently termed as "best-effort" tagging and I
    personally don't mind the name. Since there is considerable detail,
    I can understand your overall characterization of the proposal as
    complex. I do hope that you draw the distinction between the
    policy (i.e., tagging) and the mechanism (i.e, BE tagging described
    in the document), and draw a different conclusion on tagging itself
    as a proposal.

In our proposal, we have attempted to provide traceability and the
possibility to do filtering (most likely at the CN's domain to weed out
attacker's packets traced via the tag). I may not have seen the holes
apparent to you. So, please explain any while keeping in mind that we
are trying to stick with do no harm (i.e., not raise the bar).

Hello,
 
We have recently submitted two new drafts,
http://search.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-bharatia-mobileip-v4-dns-ext-00
.txt
<http://search.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-bharatia-mobileip-v4-dns-ext-0

.txt
<http://search.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-bharatia-mobileip-v6-dns-ext-0
0.txt> 
 
These drafts define MIP RRP extensions to support transfer of DNS addresses
assigned by HA to the MN. This work is resulted from the original
requirements in 3GPP2 where DNS addresses are currently transferred to MN
using IPCP, which is basically a link layer specific solution. The attached
emails determine previous Mobile IP mailing list discussion where the need
of doing this work in separate (other than RFC3220) draft was identified.
 
The mechanism we have offered in these two drafts is link layer independent
solution.
 
Your comments on these drafts are appreciated.
 
Thanks,
Jayshree

Hello Kuntal, 

I do not think this is possible.  I think it would be quite possible 
to make a separate draft for this extension, though.  And, it seems 
to me to more appropriate anyway than trying to add it to RFC2002bis, 
since the latter document wasn't supposed to have new features 
(despite appearances to the contrary).

Charlie P.

Charlie, 
I was wondering if we still have time to add MIP extensions in 2002bis so
that DNS server addresses can be returned by the home network? We discussed
this issue in 3GPP2 and there was a requirement for this feature. Currently
DNS server addresses are negotiated by MN with PDSN/FA during IPCP phase
(RFC 1877), however there is no way to assign these DNS servers in the home
network. It would be nice if HA has option to send these DNS addresses in
the RRP message. 


I can help in writing up the text for this, if you think it's still possible
to add this feature in the draft. 


Please let me know. 


Thanks and best regards, 
Kuntal

Hi Jayshree,

Thanks for writing this up, I have a couple of comments on the v6 draft.

> 1.1  Glossary of Terms

You can remove FA from the v6 draft.

Don't know if it matters, but the HA must always return an Ack to the
MN,
regardless of the A bit (section 9.1, page 69 of mipv6 draft 15).

> The Mobile IP Sub-Optionsfor primary and secondary DNS servers shall

I think this sub-option requires alignment, like the HAO or alt-COA in
mipv6:

0                   1                   2                   3
    0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

   +                                                               +
   |                                                               |
   +                          DNS Address                          +
   |                                                               |

Don't know if the v4 one has the same requirement.

And just another comment.  Would it be useful to have this a variable
number
of addresses instead of fixed at two?  The length would tell you how
many
there were, similar to the ICMP Home Agent Address Discovery Reply
Message
in section 5.8 of mipv6.

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		: Registration Revocation in Mobile IP
	Author(s)	: S. Glass, M. Chandra
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mobileip-reg-revok-02.txt
	Pages		: 31
	Date		: 06-Mar-02
	
During the original design of Mobile IP, the need for an
administrative domain to be able to actively revoke a current Mobile
IP registration was recognized.  Due to the lack of a specific
scenario requiring such a mechanism, it was decided that instead of an
active revocation mechanism explicitly for the purpose of registration
revocation, a passive mechanism, namely short registration lifetimes,
and the denial of a subsequent registrations from a mobile node, would
likely be sufficient for this purpose.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-mobileip-reg-revok-02.txt

To remove yourself from the IETF Announcement list, send a message to 
ietf-announce-request with the word unsubscribe in the body of the message.

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username
"anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in,
type "cd internet-drafts" and then
	"get draft-ietf-mobileip-reg-revok-02.txt".

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


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

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-mobileip-reg-revok-02.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

Hi.

I read Mobile IPv6 I-D.
I have a question about Mobile IPv6.

In Mobile IPv6 Protocol, MN has the functions of forming CoA and sending BU.
I think, If AR(Access Router) can have these functions, there will be the 
following advantages.

(1) AR can form MN's new CoA and perform DAD before Handover.
(2) The delay to register with HA and CN is reduced, because the delay 
between AR and MN is eliminated.
      In case that the link between AR and MN is wireless, e.g. WCDMA, its 
transmission delay will be about several ten msec( 40-50msec ).
      If AR sends BU, this transmission delay is eliminated.

Are there any problems on this idea?
Could you give me any comments?

Hi.

I read Mobile IPv6 I-D.
I have a question about Mobile IPv6.


In Mobile IPv6 Protocol, MN has the functions of forming CoA and sending BU.
I think, If AR(Access Router) can have these functions, there will be the 
following advantages.


(1) AR can form MN's new CoA and perform DAD before Handover.
(2) The delay to register with HA and CN is reduced, because the delay 
between AR and MN is eliminated.
      In case that the link between AR and MN is wireless, e.g. WCDMA, its 
transmission delay will be about several ten msec( 40-50msec ).
      If AR sends BU, this transmission delay is eliminated.

Are there any problems on this idea?
Could you give me any comments?


Best regards,


K.Iida

Charlie,

there was no reordering in my examples.
There was just multiple concurrent "streams" of packets arriving at the CN - 
one stream being sent by the CN and one stream being sent by the attacker.

As such there is no assumption about the network reordering packets.

Charlie,

Are you talking about the ideas about "smart" ingress filtering or something
else here?

As I hope I showed with my examples today's ingress filtering before the CN
can't do anything since it will just inspect the IP source address which
the attacker does not need to spoof.

And filtering after the CN can't tell the difference between the good and
bad packets since the tags assigned to the packets can be quite random
when the CN receives multiple HAO values for the same HoA.

Charlie,

Some comments on the claimed benefits.

>     Unverified HAO allowable	Unverified HAO prohibited
> 
> -   Robust to cache entry       If CN times out or loses a Binding
>     timeout and reclamation     Cache entry, MN traffic is blackholed

You seem to be forgetting that the unvHAO (just like the binding cache)
will be of finite size.
If you take that into account you'll see that the unvHAO is actually less
robust because a MN will send unvHAO which will be dropped during normal 
operation. Some error can be sent to the MN is this case but that is
after the packets have been lost.

I think an attacker can easily fill the unvHAO cache with garbage since
there is no verification of the information that goes in there.
Thus an attacker can send
	src=X HoA=::1 dst=cnn.com
and increase "1" until the unvHAO is filled.

Also, on the right you claim that timing out a BCE will cause packet loss
which isn't true. The MN knows the binding lifetime it its binding update list
which tell the MN for how long time it can continue to send HAOs.
The only case the strict HAO verification will drop packets (and send an
error to inform the MN) is when it has had a fatal loss of state
(i.e. crashed and rebooted).
This is normally a rather rare event and when it happens it will
disrupt the actual data traffic (TCP, RTP state being lost as well at the CN).
This is quite different than dropping packets during normal operation when
the unvHAO cache is full - whether due to high load or due to attacks.

What is the delay?
A MN which cares about performance presumably starts the data traffic
using reverse tunneling while the 1.5 roundtrips of RR+BU are
in effect. When it gets the BAck it can then switch to fully optimized path
in both directions.

> -   "Do No Harm" satisfied      Reverse tunneling and black-holing

We've talked about "do no harm" in the context of security.
You don't seem to be talking about security here so am I a bit confused.

> -   Vulnerability == "way_small"   Vulnerability == 0.

"way_small" > "do no harm"?

Glenn,

I think that the discussion I and Rajeev had on the list
resulted in the above statement about "the IP address of the
node causing the CN's response" no longer being true.

A firewall in front of a non-mobile node (a GN) can be configured to drop
all tagged packets without too bad effects since the state machine on the CN
is designed to effectively favor generating non-tagged packets.

But what can't be done is to have a firewall in front of a HA (or as part
of a HA) filter based on the actual tag value since that would make
it trivial for any attacker on the Internet to cause many good packets
to be dropped by such a filter.

Rajeev,

I'm trying to understand how such filtering would happen
in practise - how can the HA/MN get the CN's domain to install a filter
specifically for one MN?

Imagine a practical case where by PDA is being attacked using *.cnn.com
as the CNs.
Do I give cnn a call to have them install a filter for
	src=X, HAO=me
for inbound packets?

This is very different than handling DoS attacks today because a customer
can interact with their ISP (an entity with which the customer has a business
relationship) and that ISP can interact with their upsteam ISPs or peers
(with which the ISP has a business relationship).

But there isn't a business relationship between me and all CNs in the world.

  Erik

No, and you are right that size matters here.  However, my model is
that the unvHAO will be somewhat less common, because typically nodes
would start to set up a Binding Cache entry.  This should be even more
true now that we have a reasonable way to do so, using the Return
Routability procedures.   So, I reckon that finite size (but nonzero)
should be O.K.  The size depends on how many mobile senders the
recevier expects to hear from.

I think that nonzero cache size will be a lot more robust than zero
cache size!

But this sort of behavior would be traceable to the source of the
attack, and amounts to a temporary decrease in robustness at cnn.com.
I admit it's not perfect, but it is improveable by techniques such as
we have discussed, and it's a lot better than nothing.

This is also true, and we can hope that the mobile node will send Binding
Update packets before the cache times out.  However, these Binding Update
packets can be lost, and typically are not expected to be acknowledged.
Furthermore, there are cases where clocks can be skewed.  All in all,
I think that we can expect some timeouts to occur.

Not according to my understanding in the last paragraph.

I don't think this is right.  If we expect that the unvHAO entry is
temporary until the verifiable Binding Cache entry is set up, then
the scenario you describe is quite unlikely.

It is faster to send packets directly to the correspondent node
than to use reverse tunneling.  It takes a while to set up a
Binding Cache entry, longer than reverse tunneling.  If the CN
implements only RR, and the mobile node requires something more,
then there will be even more delay.

I definitely agree with you.

I didn't think it was very confusing!  But you are right, that this
effort to avoid harm is concerned with performance and robustness,
at no cost in security.

>> -   Vulnerability == "way_small"   Vulnerability == 0.

I don't think there is any realistic harm done here, and I do
think that there is performance and robustness gains to be had
that are worthwhile.

I agree about that!

But you didn't address my point that lack of robustness is caused by the

Yes, but presumably cnn.com would see lots of unvHAO entries (assuming 
triangular is as useful as it is claimed) and it has no way to tell
good from bad.
Sure, if the src is identical for many it would be a hint.
But the attacker could easily pick source addresses from the /64 for its
subnet.

Of course, such an attacker could also use RR to fill the binding cache.
*BUT* that wouldn't cause packet drops for others - it would just cause
others to not be able to complete the RR/BU exchange.

If the packet flow continues then either the MN can do a BU or the CN can
send a BR some number of seconds before the binding expires.
In both cases should the MN discover that the binding did not get renewed 
it makes sense for the MN to revert to reverse tunneling.
I don't see what clock skew has to do with this - there are no absolute
times communicate in MIPv6. Relative times aren't effected by clock skew.

You seem to assume that the MN would not ask for a BAck.
I'm assuming that with strict HAO checks against be BCE it makes
a lot of sense for the MN to always ask for a BAck.

And even with unvHAO it makes sense for the MN to ask for a BAck
since without it the CN might continue to route packets to an old CoA until
the binding expires.

If you assume that MNs don't care about stale BCEs on the CNs (i.e. they
don't care if they don't receive packets from that CN) than of course
they don't care about robustness.

My point is that with strict HAO checks an MN can get robustness.
With unvHAO there will be packet loss when the unvHAO cache gets full.
As simple as that.

I'm confused. You are assuming that the unvHAO cache will only/mostly be useful
for the 1.5 rtts until RO is setup? That makes no sense to me due to the
probability of the packet loss  issue with unvHAO.

Are you trying to put words in my mouth?
I think there are huge security problems caused by unvHAO.
Sigh.

I don't know of a good answer. However, installing the filter
need not be specifically for one MN. You would do this to block a
malicious node from potentially affecting many MNs. You would
detect such a possibility however through at least one MN.

how about,

customer = an entity supporting HA/MN ? The customer has an ISP (or is an
ISP himself/herself) who interacts with another ISP. The same case above holds.
Correct me if I am missing something..

You are a customer to some ISP and the CN is a customer to some other

Hi Rajeev and Basavaraj, I have now read your proposal and would
like to offer some comments on it. (I'm still reading the rest
of the thread so I could learn something new later.)

This is correct, but there's also a bit more to the traceability problem.
Namely, mechanisms are being added to the Internet to allow for tracing
packets regardless of possible forging of the source address. HAO
makes one of the trace schemes, itrace, not work as the interesting
leg of the packet's path will not generate traces to the victim.
This is however fixable with what we called 3-way itrace somewhere
in the DT notes. However, another (apparently a more popular) technique
called IPPT however can't be fixed this way.

Hmm... so we get traceability, but what about prevention a la
ingress filtering?

Destination unreachable is ok, but the process for sending correct
tags sounds dangerous. Could be used by bad guys as well.

So, if I know an address that is likely to be filtered (e.g. 10.x.x.x)
and claim that as my CoA in a single packet to a CN with HoA=victim,
then victim's unidirectional traffic will be lost for a while?

So, assuming this works well within an area where ingress
filtering is used, what happens to other areas? For instance,
if on this particular area (the place of the victim) we
don't have ingress filtering, then he could guess that
a mobile M is talking to correspondent C and hence C is at
the "tag" state. Then the attacker could send a spoofed
message with M as the source and with no HAO. Then C would
move to no-tag state, and drop all M's traffic for T2 time.

Note that without the tagging scheme, all the attacker could
possibly do is to inject some extra packets, not start dropping
real packets. Doesn't this violate the no-harm principle?

Also, consider what the attacker has to do in order to inject
the bad packet as above. He doesn't in fact have to even guess
TCP sequence numbers or anything like that, because for the purposes
of tag processing, it is enough to get one packet in, regardless
of whether TCP throws it away immediately or not.


In conclusion, I fear that while fixing a problem, we may
be introducing serious other problems.

Uh oh so we have an intermediate optimization (triangular routing) which
drops packets... I'm not too comfortable with this.

The traceability aspect wasn't addressed fully. We can now
trace things when the source addresses are right (e.g.
under ingress filtering) as the tag is carried along. However,
we would also need to address the case where it is not, and would
use something like itrace or ippt. The former appears to be fixable,
but the latter is not.

Hmm... let's analyze this. The first issue that comes to my mind is
attacker's who might be filling the unvBCE memory on purpose, in order
to flush out necessary states related to the victim. The secod issue
that almost by definition, this scheme can't provide an authenticated
HoA in the tag option, not even in the RR sense of the word "authenticted".
So, regardless of how well we plug the holes we notice, there is going
to be other holes left that allow attackers to inject inappropriate
tags to the traffic, possibly causing packets to be dropped at firewalls
or the HA.

DISAGREE. I think there are holes in traceability, at least on this
first read this appears to be introducing new holes, and the scheme
is relatively complicated. Wouldn't it be simpler to just require
RO from the CNs, if we are to require the CNs to hold state? Please
note that *every* CN has to implement this. If you use the BCE implementation
strategy, why wouldn't we at the same time bite the bullet and implement
and use RO itself?

However, I do have a constructive proposal on how we could go ahead
and still try to get something like this in the standards assuming we
*do* resolve the open issues somehow. I'd like to propose that the BR
message that reports lack of memory for unvBCE would be used to signal
the support for this feature. This way, we could go ahead with the base
MIPv6 RFC with bidir and RO, and *if* we get these issues solved, we can
introduce another RFC which specifies the following:

1) MNs can optimistically start to use triangular routing and unvHAOs
2) If they get a BR they will downgrade back to bidir and assume CN
    supports only the base RFC
3) If no BR, they proceed as planned

Disclaimer: when I read the rest of the thread, I might change my
mind about what I've said in this e-mail...

This seems to be fundamental observation. *Any* non-socketApi solution necessarily
has to make a random/heuristic assignment of the tags to the outgoing packets.
If so, the solution can *not* be used to filter out bad guy's traffic as per
the original requirement.

The original requirement was to be able to see that address X somewhere
in the net is attacking us, and placing a filter at the ISP router to
block all packets with Src=X or Tag=X. However, if we can't guarantee
the right packets are tagged, we'll be dropping some real packets and
not all wrong packets. This isn't good.

The robustness problem will come when the cache is filled.
The cache can be sized so that under normal operation it will
rarely if ever be filled.  I thought that was implicit in what
I said.

If this gets to be a problem, then the implementation can count
against prefixes instead of against 128-bit addresses.  I think
we are discussing a problem that is already unlikely, but if it
exhibits some hint of likelihood, then at that time the engineering
tradeoffs will become apparent.

This depends on the cache management strategy, and on the ability to
match outgoing tags with incoming packets as we have discussed.
The attacker is also traceable, so I don't see this as a serious
threat.  And, the downside is annoying, but temporary and nonfatal.
If it's really important, though, we could have a fallback position
by which mobile nodes that are frustrated with incomplete RR/BU
exchanges, to use reverse tunneling.

Yes, but I think your statement points out that we are facing a loss
in responsiveness.  I hope we can avoid this sort of annoyance,
especially for interactive traffic.

It could be that, under attack, reverting to reverse tunneling
would be a useful strategy.  Instead of "clock skew", it would more
precisely be a problem only with skewed clock rates.

This is introducing a need for a lot more signaling (approximately
double what unacknowledged Binding Update would require).  I had
always thought it was a good feature of Mobile IPv6 that we should
be able to avoid that.

I am not at all making that assumption.  Stale Binding Cache entries should
be handled by handover techniques.  I do think that mobile nodes should
care about robustness and performance -- which is the main reason that I'm
involved in this discussion.  My statement in this quoted segment followed
from my previous statement about the possibility for cache entries to be
timed out or reclaimed.

> My point is that with strict HAO checks an MN can get robustness.

I also think we should expect most HAOs to be verifiable.  I believe
that we can get greater robustness by allowing a small percentage of
HAOs to be acceptable, along the way towards establishing verifiability.

The probability of packet loss is zero, unless a node is under
attack.  The probability of attack is low, and the attacker is
traceable.  I am hoping that most HAOs will be verifiable, and I
am proposing that we allow some of them to be acceptable, and
tagged, prior to the moment when they are verifiable.

Erik, I am not trying to subvert your message.  The last clause is mine,
and I _thought_ the previous clause was implied by your statement.
You can tell me I was wrong about my inference, but please don't
make out like I am arguing unethically.

> I think there are huge security problems caused by unvHAO.

I think the problems are really microscopic!  And, that they
are only evident under malicious attack, which is in addition
benefitting from highly improbable and fortuitous chance
occurrence.  Most attackers would rather not go for a traceable
attack which is unlikely to succeed anyway.  I do not believe
that protecting against such unlikely attacks is worthy cause
for loss of performance and robustness.

> Sigh.

If this is an expression of frustration, then please try to view
my message as an attempt to build a better system.  I am not
doing this to frustrate you.

Charlie P.

Hi, all.

I have some quiestions about proxy DAD.

When the MN sends BU (S bit is 0),
should HA execute DAD for only MN's link-local home address?
or both of link-local and global addess?

And when the MN sends BU (S bit is 1),
should HA execute DAD for only global address?
or not?


ID-15 chapter 9.1 says that

    -  Finally, if the Duplicate Address Detection (D) bit is set in
       the Binding Update, this home agent MUST perform Duplicate
       Address Detection [27] on the mobile node's home link for the
       home address in this binding (before returning the Binding
       Acknowledgement).  The address used for Duplicate Address
       Detection SHOULD be the mobile node's link-local address.

and

   If the `S' bit field in the Binding Update is zero, The Home Agent
   creates or updates Binding Cache entries for each of possible
   several home addresses.  The set of such home addresses is formed
   by replacing the routing prefix for the given home address with
   all other routing prefixes that are supported by the home agent
   processing the Binding Update.  The Home Agent creates such a
   separate primary care-of address registration for each such home
   address.  Note that the same considerations for Duplicate Address
   Detection apply for each affected home address.



I'm little confusing about this.

Regards.

Some very brief notes on this thread I had no time following
unfortunately until now..

- On robustness: both verified and unverified caches are in reality
  finite in size. Both would have a similar error mechanism
  anyway so there is hardly a difference in robustness in
  RO-BC or unverified cache filling up. With the latter you
  may lose some packets in transit, but also with the former,
  it is just a cache and may get destroyed before or without
  new BU reaching the CN. In a worst case a RO data packet may
  be on path and get dropped in such a gap. This should not
  be a real argument.
- On traceability: support for traceability with current
  mechanisms as is cannot clearly be an assumption since a tag
  is a new construct. But we know traceability is possible
  due to the tag being an audit. It does not support all the
  ways tracing is done today but tracing in general can be
  supported given the right tool.
- On filterability: in CN: possible, between CN and a HA maybe
  possible with exact tagging. Best effort tagging gives
  the chance for the attacker to exploit tags being responses
  to packets with different CoA due to asynchrony of L3 stack
  and the applications. This was considered a real issue by
  some, but to really consider whether this is beyond do no
  harm, here are some more thoughts

  - Injecting packets to unsecured payload traffic by sending
    spoofed packets along a legal stream really is possible
    even without mobility. One just spoofs CN address inserting
    it to source address and adds those to the legal stream if on
    path. Exact tagging is actually addressing the case when
    tagging should also consider that application data traffic
    is unsecured. Tagging can hardly fix that, and given the
    source IP can be spoofed without mobility, the comparison
    in the discussion so far has not been completely fair.
    The definition of do-no-harm is not clear from the discussion
    thread. I still suspect tagging does not go beyond this
    when comparing to this non-mobility case.

  - What a filtering firewall really does is to also block the
    legal CN in the above non-MIPv6 case. If tagging is
    there, any packet prompting filtering on the CN-HA path
    can then cause blocking of all packets going to the
    destination HoA. Useful packets are lost but so are in
    the above case. There are only differences in nuances,
    now the attacker does not have to change source address
    and a filter has a different but equally stateless rule
    that instead of the source address filters by the
    destination address, while the tag gives the traceability.
    One could claim there is a difference in the added ability to
    do off path attacks with tagging but unless we have globally
    deployed martian filtering (which we do not have), one
    can also mount the above type of source spoofing attacks with
    non-mobility packets even from off-path locations.

  As a conclusion, I can live with the HOA tagging being an
  option with a separate specification added later on, to
  expedite the base specification, but do not yet understand
  the security arguments against tagging.

BR,

-Jari

=> Isn't 'on path' the keyword here ? 
Ignoring on path attackers (because you said
they already exist), doesn't the inability 
of CNs to place filters allow for off-path
attackers? I thought this was the main
issue here, but I admit I haven't read every
mail on this thread.

A L2 triggers pre-BOF will be held at the IETF
on Monday nite at 10:00pm.  We will meet
at 10:00pm in front of the bulletin board near
the IETF registration desk  and=20
proceed to an empty conference room.

Aaron Falk (falk@ISI.edu) and myself
will co-chair the pre-BOF discussion on
L2 triggers.  Aaron is currently co-chair
of the PILC working group and we will
work together in faciliating a good discussion
on L2 triggers in preparation for
an official BOF in Japan.

There have been several L2 related internet
drafts both dealing with more wireless area.
We would like to get some discussion about=20
how L2 triggers can be broadened out of being
strictly a wireless related thing and be more general.=20

Please join us in this pre-BOF L2 triggers debate
on Monday, March 18.


Thanks

Carl and Aaron
Co-chairs of L2 Triggers Pre-BOF

Actually, CN having filters by the tagging schemes
would be quite feasible, but the reordering of packets
vs tags makes precise filtering (filter exactly attacker
packets only) harder on other nodes between
CN and HA. I was questioning is this different from
a non-mobility case with spoofed CN address in attacker's
packet.

And also, questioning the more harm argument,
comparing to non-mobility case, there could be similar
off-path attacks (attacker just inserting an arbitrary
spoofed address to IPhdr source) if/since there can be
places/paths where we do not have Martian filtering
(ingress filtering from addresses coming from
topologically "wrong" directions) verifiably on
every path an attacker could use.

Hello folks,

This text results from collaboration with Francis Dupont and Jari
Malinen,
who did most of the work.  Together, we hope it will represent a
successful
effort to find the serviceable consensus that enables use of IPsec even
with restrictive interpretation about application of IPsec policy to
final
headers only.

Regards,
Charlie P.

=======================================================================

X.Y    Piggybacking with IPsec

   This section describes when it is possible to piggyback mobility 
   options (BU/BACk and RR messages) while using IPsec and what an 
   implementation needs to do in both the sender and the receiver.

   Two new header types are needed: one extension header for
   piggybacking, and one final header type used with IPsec.
   Since the extension header with payload is not to be protected by
IPsec,
   and the final header type is considered as transport, IPsec does not
   have to be changed at all in any node, peer or intermediate.
   Since these two headers are identical except for their type
   number, the effect on mobility implementation is minimal.

   Interoperation in any case is secured by making piggybacking
   a negotiable option. If node (HA, MN, or CN) can send and receive
   piggybacked packets, it SHOULD initiate or respond in piggybacking
   negotiation by setting the piggybacking flag in the mobility
   signaling as enabled. Also, if the peer in the negotiation does
   not enable its flag, or the node does not receive such a message,
   the node MUST NOT piggyback.

   If IPsec is not used, an implementation can have a policy which 
   by default allows piggybacking, by means of static configuration. 
   Then the node can follow this static configuration and it SHOULD
   enable its own piggybacking flag in the case the configuration is
   set. If there is any non-IPsec reason why the node cannot piggyback,
   this policy can be disabled by a management interface to the policy.
 
   In order to piggyback payload and mobility messages when IPsec 
   is in use, we have cases 1-4 in Table 1. Assuming the current 
   IPsec selectors [RFC 2401] and two new extension headers for 
   mobility signals, the node having IPsec policies (resulting in 
   an AH or ESP header) can piggyback in cases 1 and 2, that is,
   when mobility signaling does not have an IPsec policy.

               Table 1. Piggybacking with IPsec

          IPsec policy for    IPsec policy
          Mobility Message    for Payload    Can piggyback
     1.       no                 no              yes 
     2.       no                 yes             yes
     3.       yes                no              no
     4.       yes                yes             no
  
   In order for the mobility signaling to enforce this, the
   mobility implementation of a sender needs to know whether mobility
   signaling has a non-default policy. It can do this by constructing a 
   signaling packet, making the header type final and causing
   a kernel IPsec policy lookup exactly like current kernel
   IPsec does this for any packet. If no policy exists, the
   final header type MAY be changed to the non-final extension,
   indicating that this signal can be piggybacked. If a policy
   was found, the final header type is used.

   A receiver does not need to have any knowledge of mobility
   in its IPsec processing. The header type hard-codes
   whether a policy even can exist, so if the header is final
   and no policy, or a wrong policy exists, the packet will
   be rejected anyway by IPsec. If the header is a non-final
   extension header, the header type hard codes that
   this signal cannot have an IPsec policy.  Whether the
   receiver accepts the extension signal depends on policy of the
   non-IPsec protection. These policies or their interaction
   with IPsec (re: bidding down or bidding aside prevention)
   cannot be enforced by unmodified IPsec mechanisms.  So
   even with the non-final extension, mobility does not have
   to be IPsec aware and vice versa.

   Piggybacking is not possible on case 3, due to processing
   difficulties at both the sender and the receiver. The scan
   for transport protocol field as described in RFC 2401 seems
   to disallow this mode.  For case 4, conflicting IPsec 
   policies would make it impossible to piggyback.

   Putting the above together, the sender MAY piggyback for the
   cases 1 and 2 in Table 1 and MUST NOT piggyback for cases
   3 and 4.   Equivalently, piggybacking is possible if and
   only if there is no IPsec policy for protection of the
   fields of the mobility signaling header.

X.Z Which Mobility Signals to Piggyback

   An implementation sends piggyback when its negotiation
   result with the peer allows and if it makes sense for
   the mobility signal in question.

   Mobility signals include BR/BU/BAck and the RR messages. 
   Piggybacking of BR/BU/BAck messages between the MN and HA is very
   rare. It can be done only when the payload belongs to a session
   between the MN and HA. For piggybacking between MN and CN,
   Table 2 describes when a mobility signal can be piggybacked.

          Table 2: Mobility Signals and Piggybacking (adapted from 
                   Design Team's writeup with small changes)

     Message                     Sndr       Rcvr          Pig

     Binding Request              CN         MN           Yes
     Binding Update               MN         CN           Yes
     Binding Acknowledgment       CN         MN           Yes
     RR 1a                        MN         CN           Yes*
     RR 1b                        MN         CN           Yes*
     RR 2a                        CN         MN           Yes? 
     RR 2b                        CN         MN            No 

     A (*) indicates that piggybacking would be sometimes possible
     (details in the DT writeup).

     A (?) - cant it be piggybacked?? not sure. didnt quite understand
     what the DT was trying to say about a 'rogue HA'.

Since in today's discussion this was not exactly stated,
and I assume by unvHAO you here also include unvHAO when
the tagging method is used, I'd like to hear more of these
particular problems. Even if best effort tagging is used,
the only concrete security issue in the best effort
tagging proposal that I heard, was for this limited
case:

- with tags and response packets being out of sync, right
  packets may get wrong tags and vice versa making tag-based
  filtering drop wrong packets and pass right packets.

  But: any filter in and after CN can still drop both,
  based on the destination address, for example, if
  we drop both right and wrong packets to this HoA.
  Also, given the timer range behavior with the unverified
  HAO cache, and unpredictability of the reflecting
  application, attack packets can be entered only
  momentarily, which makes it hard to find those
  moments due to randomized timeout ranges.

  Could you help me to see where the added harm is?
  It is unclear to me how the above issue effectively
  differs from the case non-mobility attack packets have
  a spoofed source address and get to be filtered along
  with victim's traffic from the same source address?
  These can be launched on-path or even off-path and
  here the effect does not seem to essentially differ from
  the problem you stated for best effort tagging, a loss of
  valid packets in an intermediate filter (in HA domain's
  firewall, for example).

BR,

Hello,

A correction: paragraph 5:
- s/two new extension headers/two new headers/
- disclaimer: this text tries mostly reflect others'
  ideas on a possible simple compromise proposal where
  minimal change is needed (one negotiation signaling bit 
  and one extra header type). Maybe one line of code is
  needed to hard-code the new transport number in the 2401
  transport scan and an extra pointer to a protocol switch
  receiving a second header type to the mobility code of the
  first header type. An implementation not supporting these
  naturally zeroes its negotiation bit disallowing these
  for a complying peer. A non-compliant packet gets rejected
  if IPsec does not recognize the new transport due to finding
  an unknown protocol type not in its transport policies.
- Ext. header placement could be after the destination option,
  final at the end, both immutable, and no more than one of
  them should exist in a packet.

BR,

-Jari

I would like to stress that if, as recommended by the DT, the HA-MN tunnel
should be encrypted for the RR messages and only for those, then the IPSEC selector
must be able to detect these messages and hence 
RR 1a and RR 2a becomes definitive NO piggybacking (i.e. final protocol elements)
- although no authentication is needed for the RR messages them selves.

BR, Karen

to guide the design of a protocol specification for LMMv6.
Localized Mobility Management, in general introduces Local Mobility
Agent functionality for proxying a Regional care of address that
remains the same while the mobile node moves within a Local Mobility
Domain, which reduces the binding update signaling latency and the
signaling load outside the Local Mobility Domain. By its very nature
LMM also serves as a mechanism to hide the Mobile Node's location 
from observers outside the administration domain (Local Mobility 
Domain).  The identified requirements listed are essential for 
localized mobility management functionality. They are intended to 
be used as a guide for analysis on the observed benefits over the 
identified requirements for architecting and deploying LMM schemes.

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, E. Gustafsson
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mobileip-aaa-key-09.txt
	Pages		: 25
	Date		: 07-Mar-02
	
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.

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

	Title		: Mobile IPv4 Challenge/Response Extensions
	Author(s)	: C. Perkins, E. Gustafsson

	Pages		: 18
	Date		: 07-Mar-02
	
Mobile IP, as originally specified, defines an authentication
extension (the Mobile-Foreign Authentication extension) by
which a mobile node can authenticate itself to a foreign agent.
Unfortunately, this extension does not provide ironclad replay
protection for the foreign agent, and does not allow for the use
of existing techniques (such as CHAP) for authenticating portable
computer devices.  In this specification, we define extensions for
the Mobile IP Agent Advertisements and the Registration Request
that allow a foreign agent to use a challenge/response mechanism to
authenticate the mobile node.

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

	Title		: Mobile IPv4 Regional Registration
	Author(s)	: E. Gustafsson, A. Jonsson, C. Perkins
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mobileip-reg-tunnel-06.txt
	Pages		: 38
	Date		: 07-Mar-02
	
Using Mobile IP, a mobile node registers with its home agent each
time it changes care-of address.  If the distance between the
visited network and the home network of the mobile node is large,
the signaling delay for these registrations may be long.  We propose
a new kind of 'regional' registration, i.e., registration local to
the visited domain.  Regional registrations reduce the number of
signaling messages to the home network, and reduce the signaling
delay when a mobile node moves from one foreign agent to another,
within the same visited domain.

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

	Title		: Mobile IPv4 Challenge/Response Extensions
	Author(s)	: C. Perkins, E. Gustafsson
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mobileip-rfc3012bis-01.txt
	Pages		: 18
	Date		: 07-Mar-02
	
Mobile IP, as originally specified, defines an authentication
extension (the Mobile-Foreign Authentication extension) by
which a mobile node can authenticate itself to a foreign agent.
Unfortunately, this extension does not provide ironclad replay
protection for the foreign agent, and does not allow for the use
of existing techniques (such as CHAP) for authenticating portable
computer devices.  In this specification, we define extensions for
the Mobile IP Agent Advertisements and the Registration Request
that allow a foreign agent to use a challenge/response mechanism to
authenticate the mobile node.

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

Hello,

The unverified home address option processing proposal has been
discussed on the mailing list over the last few days. 
The conclusion is that while the proposed tagging mechanism provides
traceability, filtering when tagging is used is not yet clearly
understood.
Hence the recommendation in order to make progress is as follows:

The base Mobile IPv6 specification will take the following approach:
- CNs must not process packets with Unverified HAO 
- A CN must send an error response to a MN sending packets with
  unverified HAO , indicating its inability to process such packets by
  sending an error message specified in the base draft.
   * This error mechanism should be extensible so that different types
     of error notification can be added e.g. when unvHAO support is
     specified.  

- With future extensions and specification, MNs may optimistically
  send packets with unverified HAO to a CN, but on receiving an error
  response, MNs  must resort to bidirectional tunnelling to send
  packets to the CN. 

With this approach triangle routing is not completely eliminated from
Mobile IPv6. It leaves the door open for a future specification that
can specify the rules for a CN to process packets with unverified HAO.
When such a specification is available and standardised by the Mobile
IP WG:

- CNs must/should process packets with unverified HAO (under the rules
  defined) 
- MNs  that send packets with unverified HAO to a CN will not receive
  an error response from such CNs

=> Well, the 'do no harm' argument is based on certain
assumptions (existing preventative mechanisms 
today). when comparing two solutions we have to keep
the assumptions fixed. In the statement above you
are changing these assumptions by saying that
'ingress filtering may not be available' and based
on that you claim that off-path attacks are possible
today. Which seems to me like changing the original
problem being solved. Am I missing something?

If any path has filtering not available/enabled, off
path attacks can be possible. But this is beside the
point, changing assumptions would mean dismissing
the need for the firewalls to block HAO-reflected traffic.

The issue was about the difference in filtering effect when
using a rule resulting in both attacker's and victim's
packets getting dropped. With non-mobility packets
having source spoofed address this clearly can happen in
some cases. The case for best-effort tagging-based filtering
is also an extreme one (cf. earlier mail). The do-no-harm
argument is whether tagging-based filtering is significantly
worse from the level of security provided by ingress filtering
in a firewall for non-mobility packets. Best effort tagging
provides an alternative source of information for filtering
which is not exact but the level of precision in non-mobility
filtering is not exact either, hence a need for clarification
what is significantly worse with this particular issue.

Hello folks,

As with rfc3012bis, the authorship on this should be
myself and Pat Calhoun, not Eva Gustafsson.

I don't know why this happened, because it was correctly
attributed in my note to the Internet Drafts folks,
and it's correct in the draft.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Hi, all.

I have some quiestions about proxy DAD.

When the MN sends BU (S bit is 0),
should HA execute DAD for only MN's link-local home address?
or both of link-local and global addess?

And when the MN sends BU (S bit is 1),
should HA execute DAD for only global address?
or not?


ID-15 chapter 9.1 says that

    -  Finally, if the Duplicate Address Detection (D) bit is set in
       the Binding Update, this home agent MUST perform Duplicate
       Address Detection [27] on the mobile node's home link for the
       home address in this binding (before returning the Binding
       Acknowledgement).  The address used for Duplicate Address
       Detection SHOULD be the mobile node's link-local address.

and

   If the `S' bit field in the Binding Update is zero, The Home Agent
   creates or updates Binding Cache entries for each of possible
   several home addresses.  The set of such home addresses is formed
   by replacing the routing prefix for the given home address with
   all other routing prefixes that are supported by the home agent
   processing the Binding Update.  The Home Agent creates such a
   separate primary care-of address registration for each such home
   address.  Note that the same considerations for Duplicate Address
   Detection apply for each affected home address.



I'm little confusing about this.

Regards.

Rajeev,

My point, which I don't seem to be able to communicate
clearly, is that during todays DoS and DDoS attacks the actions taken to
do manual traceback and filtering can follow the business relationships
one "hop" at a time.
Customer asks its ISP.
That ISP asks its upstream ISPs.
An ISP asks its transit provider.

I seem to be saying that there is a transitive closure of business
relationships and I agree that such a transitive closure exists and would
encompass mosts IP nodes in the Internet.
But I don't see how the transitive closure helps - each "hop" along the
path today requires people evaluating the legitimacy of requests to traceback
and/or filter before they pass it along to the next "hop" is the chain of
relationships.

Is that more clear?
If not perhaps we should talk about this on the phone.

  Erik

Charlie,

A few comments.

I think the term is "clock drift".

The protocol can easily be designed to handle a maximum difference in drift.
For instance, if we assume that the drift difference will be less that 4%
(around 1 hour per day - I assume most systems have much less)
then the MN just needs to time out its notion of the CN having a BCE
in .96 times the actual lifetime value passed in the protocol.
Protocols like DHCP effectively already do this - make sure the 
address is refreshed quite a while before the lifetime says
it will expire.
So this is a no-brainer.

Without a BAck the RR scheme has 5 packets. With a BAck 6. Hardly twice
as much.
And if we need a BAck to make the protocol both secure and robust against
packet loss, what option do we have?

Assuming an infinite size unvHAO cache this is true.

I don't think computers/devices can be built so that they will never run
out of a particular resource unless they live in a completely predictable
environment. Connecting to the network makes the environment no longer
completely predictable. Thus CNs will run out of unvHAO space even
during non-attack scenarios. Carefully engineering of the CN will
presumably limit the cases during which this happens, but it be a non-zero
probability event. Thus I agree with your claim above.

Also, since we'd like the protocol to behave reasonably even during attack it
would seem prudent to think about the added loss caused by the unvHAO 
cache being full.

I didn't say there was anything unethical. I pointed out that by you stating
"but you are right, ..." you seem to say that I had said "at no cost in
security" which I never said and never intended to say.
This space is full of traceoffs between security, robustness, and performance.
Thus I think that all three need to be taken into account.
Your statement seemed to imply that I didn't think security mattered here
which is what made be react.

Time to agree that we disagree and move on.

The above should not be a real argument :-) :-)

Seriously,
I think there is a big difference between the case when the CN reboots
and losses all state (including transport and application state) i.e. looses
the BCE state compared to the unvHAO idea of effectively
doing "send and prey" that an unvHAO entry can be created on the CN.

RFC 3220 states in section 3.5.2 that "Exactly one
authorization-enabling
extension MUST be present in all Registration Requests, ..."

Although this appears to prohibit a Registration Request that contains
both a Mobile-Home Authentication Extension and a MN-AAA Authentication
Extension, perhaps there is a way to allow both to be present.
 
Perhaps RFC 3220 meant that:
1. When there is only one of the two in the Registration Request, then
   the extension that is present is the authorization-enabling
extension.
2. When both are present, then the Mobile-Home Authentication extension
   is the authorization-enabling extension, and the MN-AAA
Authentication
   extension is not considered authorization-enabling.
 
Can this work?
 
Bob

Jari,

sorry for being inexact - the unvHAO name has been used for the proposal
to do best effort tagging but I realize this isn't necessarily the
only case.
So my statement applies to unvHAO handling using best-effort tagging.
Using exact tagging (where every "response packet" is tagged with the
IP source address in the corresponding "request packet")
seems to avoid these security issues at the expensive of additional 
implementation complexity which needs to cross the API and effect UDP
applications.

I think I've expressed my security concerns several times on the list already.
Do I need to repeat them?

Yes, but that will then effect the legimate traffic.
The goal of handling DoS attacks is to maximize the number of
bad packets being filtered while minimizing the effect on
legitimate traffic.
With reflection it isn't always possible to avoid effect on legitimate
packets as Vern's paper (in DT writeups) point out.
But what you propose above makes MIPv6 cause additional causes where
filtering can not be very exact.

Huh?
Are you talking about the case when one entitity (attacker or good guy) is
using HAO and the other isn't?
Or the case when both are using HAO? The latter is the place with the most
problems.

Think of case with some ingress filtering (but never perfect) that
will prevent arbitrary source address spoofing.
Add attackers doing DoS and the need to filter those out
close to where the pain is being felt (and the CN might not feel
any pain from such an attack).

Hi all,
We wrote a draft about behavior of a mobility agent in order to
apply different handoff mechanisms to individual flows, a few months ago.

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ishi-mobileip-behavior-ma-00.txt .

We have received few comments.
However, we'd like to start a discussion of the subject.

Our draft aims at bringing up a problem that a mobility agent
should apply different handoff mechanisms to individual flows
according to an implicit or explicit configuration.

Mobile IP is known to a protocol that deals solely with terminal mobility.
In Mobile IP and its proposed extensions, when a mobile node,
that has multiple connections (flows) simultaneously,
moves between networks, a handoff mechanism is
applied to the terminal$B!G(Bs movement.
Even if each connection (flow) may request its own distinctive QoS,
all connections (flows) will go through same interruption of services
and jitters due to the handoffs.
So we propose that a mobility agent should apply different handoff
mechanisms to each connection (flow) according to the requested QoS.

We are assuming that it will be necessary to support a QoS mechanism
and mobility agents should support the QoS mechanism
in a future mobile network. And we think we need to clarify
behavior of the mobility agent when it supports more than one handoff
mechanism in order to assure a QoS attribute when the mobile node moves.

We look forward to receiving your comments.
And if I miss something, please forgive my ignorance and let me know.

Ishibashi

Erik,

Come on I don't think your being "fair" we both ship web servers that
deal with 10 million hits in a very short time any CN that is supporting
serious Mobile IPv6 is not going to run into this caching problem as the
norm.  Thats an absurd and sophist argument philosophically (Plato's
sophism).  It is not a technical argument but a technical assumption.  I
don't agree with either.  Also the servers that do OLTP is even more
intense than the web server case.

Now honestly, if one compares the cases of a node quickly
establishing RR-verified cache entries and unvHOA entries,
both can be done rather rapidly and for different addresses.
Both caches can be filled and both caches should be of
limited size. If one does not have an explicit limitation
with RR-verified cache, it usually causes reservation of space
from heap and is in a way worse because it can disturb other
operation by making (k)mallocs fail for other uses. Having a
restricted size also for RR-verified cache is _better_ than
not having one. The UnvHAO space even had a rate limiting
functionality specified unlike the verified BC. I still
do not see any relevant difference in the memory filling
behavior, hence on robustness.

Since we are here considering unsecured applications, and to
understand do-no-harm, the comparison should be done against
what one can do with non-HAO packets. In unsecured packets,
putting the spoofed HoA to the source address causes the same
effect. Ingress filtering from the attacker to CN can be used
for both, from CN to victim GN or HA, with non-mobility packets
we have imperfect source based filtering, or with tagging,
imperfect source+destination or tag based filtering.

I have tried to read through and found two, buffer behavior,
non-exactness of tagging, and I am trying to see the added
harm in them. Am I missing some others?

Similarity to the non-mobility source-spoofed packets is
striking, so that one cannot help asking, is this just having
actually the same cause non-mobility packets already provide. 
Granted, a new rule to a firewall is needed to do something
based on destination address (HA/GN) and source address (CN),
or with the risk of mis-tagging, the tag itself.

With ongoing sessions for this case there is "inertia" 
which causes the non-HAO guy to keep the session easier.
Mis-tagging requires switching between the good guy and
bad guy and that takes time. During this time responses
most likely are already gone, because switching takes a
small timeout. During this timeout the responses to requests
have gone to their right addresses and there is only a
small probability for mis-tagging. If timeouts are made to 
follow responsiveness of the overall system, the probability
can most likely be kept close to zero. Granted if the
responses become slow, packets get dropped, but that
may happen even for UDP applications if the load is
bad enough.

This is the case when MN and A compete for the HAO and
MN must be able to move quicker from CoA to another.
But here, too, if one uses rate-limiting of a small
timeout (one of the two timers in the solution) to
rate-limit how quickly changes are accepted and the
legitimate MN also uses the same rate-limiting (plus
a small delta), the bad guy must hit half of the delta
to get in. So both CN and MN having rate limiting with
obeying the faster timer, they can make it so that this
timer gives CN stack the time not to mix the packets.

With extensions such as BET, such a rate limiting
may be already occurring naturally in MN.
Attacker must pace his attacks really precisely
to hit the occasion to cause alteration back and
forth for the mis-tagging to happen. The small
guard time allows for a relatively frequent mobility
while it gives time for CN not to mis-order outgoing
packets. If the guard time is larger than RTT variation,
and variation of CN packet reordering probability,
the hole for the attacker is near zero.

t0 ---- guard_t - mn_t

The attacker must hit between guard_t and rate limiting
mn_t (when next packet after new CoA from the good MN
arrives). Then it must again wait to let mn take its
turn and again the same. Otherwise mis-tagging does
not happen (only one guy causes the traffic and that
is both traceable and filterable based on tags).

CN source spoofing can be done at will at any time, and also
off-path if there is no source-based (ingress and martian)
filtering everywhere, even the best effort tagging limits
the chances of mis-tagging to very small.

To summarize: the differences are so minimal that I have
not understood the more harm argument here. It would be
even fair to call source spoofing much easier than causing
mis-tagging. And even with mis-tagging one would have the
same granularity of filtering as with source spoofing
prevention. Both victim's and attacker's packets from/to
one address get dropped at worst.

RFC3220 mandates that messages containing non-skippable extensions MUST
be silently discarded. I would like to propose that if a registration
request contains a non-skippable extension, then mobility agents should
reply with an error code that gives an indication of the problem. The
error reply should also be able to contain an extension that would
give a more specific inidication of the problem, e.g. the position
of the rejected extension and/or the extension type number.

Currently, when registrations are silently discared, the MN has
no chance of knowing whether the message was discarded due to a
non-skippable extension or if it was lost in the Internet (and thus
should be resent).

Is there any reason for not replying with an error code?
Opinions?

How can today's ingress filtering (that looks at only the IP source
address field) be able to filter out packets between the attacker and the CN?
Those packets would have an IP source address that is topologically
correct for the attacker.

You didn't answer my above question of what case you are talking about.
Which case should I assume you were talking about?

In the case of one entity using HAO and the other is not the timer
mechanism effectively gives preference to not using HAO.
So this seems to be workable.

Are you referring to a modification to the unvHAO proposal that was sent to
the list? I don't find references to the above in that proposal.

Is the rate limiting you are proposing here a limit on the rate
at which the recorded tag value can change? Or something else?
Will the CN verify the source address in the received packets against
the recorded rate-limited change tag value?
[As you can tell I have no idea what change you are proposing to
the unvHAO proposal.]

Will the CN discard packets that have the wrong source address?

Hello,

       I submitted this e-mail as a request to find out if anyone was
working with IEEE Std 802.11 Wireless LAN. I am currently working on this,
and at this time interested in the MAC-layer. Partcularly, the media access
functions DCF and PCF, and enhancements thereof. Thus, I was wondering if
anyone else was also working on this, perhaps implementation and modeling
work, and simulation. 

Later, I also have plans to look at IP-layer enhancements such as
transporting MAC frames from one ESS to another across multiple Aps.

If anyone is involved in these topics, and would like some discussions,
perhaps you can drop me an e-mail. Also, please let me know if you plan to
be in Minneapolis, I am going to be there next week.

Thank you very much.

Sharif.

hi,

Looks like nobody responded to your mail. Check out this mail
that I had sent in August 2001 
http://www.atm.tut.fi/list-archive/mobile-ip/msg00400.html. 
It works.

If we still discuss the HAO reflection (right?), first,
there needs to be a method by which we can detect
attacking packets by content to be able to filter
them anywhere. If we consider the attacker-CN leg,
which is before the reflection, these are still
originated directly by the attacker, not yet by
the reflecting CN. Hence, the source address is
directly that of the attacker and normal ingress
filtering should apply as long as the attack can
be detected there by packet content (by TCP SYN
in packets, for example).

Oops, grouping of your question did not make it explicit,
yes, the case above is that of either party not tagging.

Let me just defer answers to all these to a revised text.
This would actually make the issues more traceable than

Not necessarily. If MN and CN have roughly similar idea
of minimal timing, there can be a very short period during
which CN can discard or defer reception of such packets,
depending on whether zero loss in all circumstances vs.
more decreased probability for attacks is desired. Timing
uses a gap that occurs only when MN changes CoA. Let us come
back to that in a revised writeup later..

Hello,

This is an update on the status of issues that were still open as per
the staus update email sent on Feb 22nd:

There were three open issues:

1. Piggybacking						[Closed]
2. Home Address destination option processing		[Closed]
   (Discussed on the list as Unverified HAO Processing)
3. The bit mechanism to turn on/off RR			[Open]

Issues 1 and 2 are now closed. Resolutions on these issues are as
follows:

1. Piggybacking
===============
As per the DT recommendations [Sent Feb 25th] on  which are:

R1. A Separate protocol should be used for the BR message, all RR
    messages, BU message and BA message.  This will allow - but not
    mandate - the use of current IPsec selectors in protecting BUs to
    the CN and HA, and RR messages via the HA. The value of next
    protocol = none must be supported by all MIPv6 compliant nodes in
    these messages.

R2. Reserve some space for preference bits in the RR messages 1a and
     1b, to allow the CN and the MN to describe their
     preferences. Only the space is reserved, but no meaning is
     assigned to the bits. 

R3. The above two recommendations should be placed in the MIPv6
     RFC. This would allow us to quickly proceed to RFC 
     status by bypassing controversial content, have as simple
     RFC and implementations as possible, but still allow
     functionality like piggybacking to be specified without
     interoperability concerns, and used by all nodes who
     support it.

R4. Separate RFCs would define the use of these bits and guidelines
    for supporting piggybacking in the presence of IPsec.

2. Unverified HAO Processing
============================
As per the conclusions/recommendation [Sent March 8th]:

The base Mobile IPv6 specification will take the following approach:
- CNs must not process packets with Unverified HAO 
- A CN must send an error response to a MN sending packets with
  unverified HAO , indicating its inability to process such packets by
  sending an error message specified in the base draft.
   * This error mechanism should be extensible so that different types
     of error notification can be added e.g. when unvHAO support is
     specified.  

- With future extensions and specification, MNs may optimistically
  send packets with unverified HAO to a CN, but on receiving an error
  response, MNs  must resort to bidirectional tunnelling to send
  packets to the CN.

Hello, Sharif

My name is Jimmy H. Dho, just call me Jimmy, and am working for Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.

First of all, I am so happy to meet a person of the same mind.

I am especially interested in the relationship between IAPP (802.11f) and Mobile IP.

I am also going to Minneapolis.

See you at there!

Hi all,

I have two questions about MIPv6 spec.

I know the spec will soon be revised.  But, since there have been no
discussions/clarifications in the mailing list about the following
topics before, let me ask them.

1. The meaning of the 'routing prefixes'
2. The cases that we cannot use the HAO.


1. The meaning of the 'routing prefixes'

In section 9.1 'Primary Care-of Address Registration', there are
following sentences.

   If the `S' bit field in the Binding Update is zero, The Home Agent
   creates or updates Binding Cache entries for each of possible
   several home addresses.  The set of such home addresses is formed
   by replacing the routing prefix for the given home address with
   all other routing prefixes that are supported by the home agent
   processing the Binding Update.  The Home Agent creates such a
   separate primary care-of address registration for each such home
   address.

When `S' bit is zero, the HA creates the BCEs for the MN with all
'routing prefixes' it has.  But I couldn't find the definition of the
'routing prefix'.

What is the definition?

a) The prefixes advertised by the routers on the home network.
	(In this case, all the addresses derived from the prefixes
	must be the home addresses.)
b) The prefixes advertised by the home agents on the home network.
	(In this case, all the addresses derived from the prefixes
	advertised by the home agents must be the home addresses)
c) administratively selected prefixes to be the home prefix.
d) other.


2. The cases that we cannot use the HAO.

In section 10.1 'Sending Packets While Away from Home', the spec says
that the MN SHOULD use the HAO to provide the transparent access to
transport-level connections.  The exception is short term
communications.  In short term communications, we MAY use COA.

However, I think using the HAO is harmful in some cases (at lease one
case.  I will explain bellow) and must be noted in the spec as 'MUST
NOT use HAO in some cases'.

Suppose the MN is foreign.

    +--+	    +--+
    |MN|P:A         |CN|Q:B	MN: a mobile node (P is home prefix)
    ++-+Q:A(COA)    +-++	CN: a CN that do not accept BU.
     |		      |
   --+----------------+-- Q::/64(or whatever)

In the above network, MN will learn the CN's lladdr for the address
Q::B by ND mechanism like bellow.

Neighbor	Linklayer Address
Q::B		(MAC addr of the CN)

Some time after, the MN may send a NS to check the reachability of the
Q::B.  In this case the dest address of the NS is Q::B and the source
address will be the home address because of the source address
selection algorithm.  Since the HAO is transparent to transport-layer
(such as ICMPv6), the CN will create the ND entry for P:A.

Neighbor	Linklayer Address
P::A		(MAC addr of the MN)

After the creation of the P:A entry, the CN sends packets to the MN
directly because the CN has a ND entry for P:A instead of sending to
the home agent of the MN.

Do the other protocols have same problem?

Hi folks,

   I asked Luis Sanchez (chair of ipsp WG) to review this doc for us and he
did.  We're very
grateful.  Here's the note he sent with his review embedded.  Please note,
this was done on
version -08 before Charlie produced version -09.

Phil
------------------------------

Hi Phil,

Enclose you will find a security review of 
draft-ietf-mobileip-aaa-key-08.txt. The findings have input from the 
following individuals listed in alphabetical order:

- S. Bitan
- S. Kent
- H. Orman

Any mistakes are solely mine. Thanks!

Luis

-------------------------------------------

General Observation: Overall the document is in reasonable shape. I 
would merge this document with  draft-ietf-mobileip-gen-key-01.txt. The 
document should however, undergo editorial review. One major concern is 
the lack of a succinct security goal statement. Such statement would be 
beneficial to the reader and would avoid confusion "why isn't this 
protected, why is this protected, should this be protected, etc."

In the IPsec context, security associations are simplex and uniquely 
identified by the triple (IP address, SPI, protocol). It is not clear if 
there is a 1to1 mapping between IPsec security associations and the 
"security associations" between mobile nodes and AAA servers. Perhaps 
this is discussed in some other document.

**Recommendation: Add text to explain the nature of the AAA server to 
Mobile Node security association.

- The mobile node calculates a key by hashing a concatenation of bits 
that include the AAA-key. How does the mobile get this key? Does it 
arrive on the wire? If it arrives on the wire it better be encrypted as 
a result of using yet some other protocol exchange to provide: peer 
authentication, data integrity and confidentiality. Are we assuming a 
security association using IKE between the MN and its home AAA server 
and that is how this AAA-key is generated? Otherwise, if pre-configured 
(manually? )how is this different from pre-configuring an MN-HA key. I 
might be asking the obvious here by not understanding the protocol 
exchanges.

**Recommendation: Add text to explain how the AAA-Key is generated and 
configured in the MN and other peers.


- For key derivation, the document recommends using one of the 
algorithms listed in the following table

      Algorithm Identifier   Name                Reference
      ---------------------  ------------------  ------------
      1                      MD5/prefix+suffix   RFC 2002 [11]
      2                      HMAC MD5            RFC 2104 [6]
      3                      SHA-1               FIPS 180-1 [10]

Back in 1996 Bellare, Canetti and Krawczyk published a paper on crypto 
discussing how a keyed hash function used in append/pre-append mode is 
more susceptible to the "divide and conquer" attack, although 
impractical, than a keyed-hashed function using a keyed-IV instead. They 
also proved that cryptographically HMAC is as strong as the hash 
function used with it. One can no make such a statement of a keyed-hash 
function used in prefix+suffix mode. As such, IPsec dropped RFC1828 and 
adopted HMAC-MD5 and HMAC-SHA1 the latter one truncated to 90bits. 
Another potential problem with MD5/prefix+suffix could come in if the 
nonsecret component of the key is variable length.  In that case, if you 
were using MD5(secret, nonsecret) = newkey, then someone might be able 
to see newkey and later observe an exchange where nonsecret' = 
nonsecret|1. Then the key would be MD5(newkey, 1) = newkey'.  You have
to analyze the protocol very carefully to assure that this doesn't 
happen, but if you use HMAC, you don't have to worry about it.

**Recommendation: Advise reader to derive keys using: key = 
HMAC-MD5(AAA-key, {Key Material | node-addres})

or HMAC-SHA1. Do not recommend using MD5/prefix+suffix or just SHA-1.


- The AAA key need to be chosen at random (or using a cryptographically 
strong pseudo-random generator seeded with a random seed), and 
periodically refreshed.  The document makes reference to RFC1750 and 
this is appropriate however, it does not mention refreshing. It is not 
clear that we can recommended a specific frequency for key changes as 
the attacks refered to above may seem practically infeasible.  However, 
periodic key refreshment is a fundamental security practice that helps 
against potential weaknesses of the function and keys, and limits the 
damage of an exposed key.

**Recommendation: Add a statement to indicate that both the Mobile Node 
and the AAA server MUST refresh their shared AAA-key. This could be done 
via the AAA protocol or some other out-of-band mechanism. For in-band 
refreshing the new key MUST be encrypted, authenticated and its 
integrity MUST be protected while on transit.

I didn't see a clear explanation in the writeup when each of the two

Hello Phil,

The relevant material from gen-key has been merged into version ...-09
I can carry out the other two recommendations in a newly revised
draft produced after the upcoming IETF.  However, I should think that
these are relatively small things, and should not require a new
working group last call.  In other words, either version ...-09 or
the newly revised document could conceivably go directly for IESG
consideration.

I can describe the nature of the (mobile node<-->AAA) security
association, but I would appreciate any help that someone might
offer (including, as always, actual text).

What do you think?

Regards,
Charlie P.

I'm inclined to agree unless there are surprise comments
from the IESG review.  We'll have to make sure there is a
clear recommendation to use HMAC-MD5 (I haven't looked at the
text for -09 either ....).

Mobile IP Based Micro Mobility Management Protocol in 
        The Third Generation Wireless Network 
     <draft-ietf-mobileip-3gwireless-ext-06.txt> 


Can someone please direct me to the current incarnation of this spec? It
disappeared from the IETF MIP
page and I don't know where it is.

The draft has been deprecated as WG document and hence does not
show up on the Mobile IP page. However it is still available in the drafts
repository.

While the 3gwireless draft superficially resembles Mobile IP in some
respects, it actually just pertains to an interface between cdma2000
PCFs and PDSNs, and doesn't really have anything to do with Mobile IP
proper.  It uses a different UDP port number for its messages.  Some
of the extension type codes were assigned unilaterally (without
consulting IANA).  It was rightly removed from the Mobile IP working
group home page.

The controlling document for the R-P interface is the
Inter-Operability Specification, produced by the TSG-A working group
of 3GPP2.  You can find the latest published version (4.1) at:

ftp://ftp.3gpp2.org/TSGA/Working/Standards/A.S0001-A-(IOS-V4.1-(IS-2001-A))/

Versions 4.2 and 4.3 are also available on the ftp site, but are still
works-in-progress.

I suspect it would be more clear if it said that the HA performs all
the functions of RFC 2462 on behalf of the mobile node.
That spec has the details of how the addresses are formed from
the prefixes advertised in router advertisements.

Why will the source address be the home address?

In the writeup, mobility signaling for cases 1 and 2
use the extension header, cases 3 and 4 use the
final header.

When a node confirm the reachability of the Q::B (a global address in
this case), the node will sent a NS packet to the address (Q::B).  The
source address of the NS packet will be the home address of the
sending MN because of the latter half of the rule 4 of
draft-ietf-ipngwg-default-addr-select.

   Rule 4: Prefer home addresses. 
   If Source(DA) is simultaneously a home address and care-of address 
   and Source(DB) is not, then sort DA before DB. Similarly, if 
   Source(DB) is simultaneously a home address and care-of address and 
   Source(DA) is not, then sort DB before DA. 
   If Source(DA) is just a home address and Source(DB) is just a care-
   of address, then sort DA before DB. Similarly, if Source(DA) is just 
   a care-of address and Source(DB) is just a home address, then sort 
   DB before DA. 

Did I misread?

OK.  Then, a HA must create all BCEs for all addresses which are
supposed to be assigned to a MN when it is on its home network.
I think I now have a clear definition.

Thank you.

Hi all

I would like to propose a new type of sub-option to be used with 
Binding Acknowledgement messages.

Main motivation: 

In ForCES framework, it would be reasonable to use a different IPv6
addresses for a signaling end point (home agent address known by MN)
and for a tunnel end point (separation of control and forwarding planes). 
This would also be useful in case of virtual home link.

The usage of this sub-option could be configurable in home agent, and it 
should not have any major impacts to the current implementations. However 
for the separation to work when needed, this sub-option would be mandatory 
to implement in MN. Home agent's support for this option is not mandatory. 
It is home agent's decision when to use this sub-option if it supports it. 
The usage of this sub-option should not create any new security 
vulnerabilities because Auth sub-option is used in all BAs with this sub-option.


Proposed additional chapter to the draft:

5.7. Alternate Tunnel End Point Address

   Alternate Tunnel End Point Address   (alignment requirement: 8n+6)

      The Alternate Tunnel End Point Address sub-option is valid 
      only in Binding Acknowledgement destination options. The 
      Alternate Tunnel End Point Address field contains an address to
	use as the source address when tunneling packets from home agent
	to MN, and as the destination address when tunneling packets from
	MN to home agent. This sub-option is optional, and if home agent's
	own address is used as a tunnel end point address, this sub-option 
	SHOULD NOT be used. This sub-option MUST be honored by an MN when 
	present. Authentication data sub-option MUST be present in the same 
	Binding Acknowledgement.

	Home link renumbering will trigger home agent to sent Mobile Prefix 
	Advertisement with Binding Request destination option to MN. At the 
	end of this message exchange, home agent will sent Binding Acknowledgement
	back to MN using Alternate Tunnel End Point Address sub-option for new 
	tunnel end point address.

	At any time, home agent may notify MN about new tunnel end point address
	by adding Alternate Tunnel End Point Address sub-option to the Binding 
	Acknowledgement.

hi Yukiyo,

Whatever the 'S' bit is set to, the conservative approach 
for the home agent would be to perform DAD for both the 
home address and link local address of the mobile node.

But as RFC 2462 says, DAD can be skipped for the home
address if stateless configuration is used and the 
interface id is going to be the same for the home address 
and the link local address. And when you chose to skip, 
it can be skipped for both cases ('S' bit set to 0/1).

I'm reading through Section 10.10 in the MIPv6 spec, and there is a
description how to establish forwarding from previous care of address by
sending a BU to a "home agent on the previous link". In Section 10.5, it
describes how an AR advertises a global unicast address for use as a
local "home agent." I'm wondering about the security implications of
this.

One of the nice security aspects of IPv6 router discovery is that the
hosts don't learn anything other than a link local address for the
routers. This helps prevent attackers from outside the local network
hacking into routers. I would expect that a router might have a site
local address for network management purposes, but a global address? And
is it such a good idea to expose that address to hosts? Do people think
this option will be widely deployed?

Also, given that it is deployed, what should the security requirements
be on sending a BU to this local "home agent"? Should they be the same
as for a CN, namely default RR and something stronger when we figure out
what? Or as for sending a BU to the home network home agent, namely
based on an IPsec SA?

I haven't seen any discussion of this, so maybe it isn't particularly
important, but it struck me as curious.

            jak

Hi,

In continuation of Yukio's mail, I also have a small
doubt regarding the scenario when S bit is set to
zero. The draft says "The set of such home
> addresses is formed by replacing the routing prefix
for the given home address with all other routing
prefixes that are supported by the home agent  
processing the Binding Update".
What does supported by HA mean? Does it mean for all
prefixes advertised by the HA, or does it mean for all
addresses advertised on the home link (including
prefixes advertised by other routers on the home link)

regards,
suvidh

By all routers on the home link. The important part here 
is the 'home link'. It *does not* mean all the routers in 
the home domain/network/whatever.

I can find this sentence in RFC2462.
Now, I'm clear.

A few IETFs ago it was decided at the working group to produce a
draft clarifying limited private address support ( manadatory
part if you support reverse tunneling) described in the appendix 
of RFC3024. 

Gabriel Montenegro, Hidetoshi Yokota and myself submitted a draft
explaining the LPAS scenarios and guidlines for implementations.

For some reason the announcement did not go out on the list.
But it's available in the draft directory as 
draft-chakrabarti-mobileip-privaddr-00.txt

Please provide your comments.

Thanks,

Abstract

   Reverse Tunneling for Mobile IP [1] defines limited private address
   support for  mobile nodes and mobile agents. This document provides
   information and guidance to the users on the requirements and desc-
   ribes implementation issues regarding Limited Private Address Support
   for Mobile IP [2]. This document's purpose is to clarify Mobile IPv4
   temporary deployment scenarios within an operator's environment where
   private IPv4 addresses are required for the mobile devices.
   However, the scenarios and communication between private addressed
   mobile nodes have limited usage. Solutions involving Network Address
   Translation are out of scope of this document.

1.0  Introduction

     Appendix A.4 of Reverse Tunneling for Mobile IP [1] discusses
     Limited Privated Address Scenarios (LPAS), but it is not very
     clear from the appendix that a reverse tunnel implementation
     MUST also support Limited Private Address Scenarios. This document
     clarifies Appendix A.4 of Reverse Tunneling for Mobile IP [1].

     The private addresses discussed here are limited to mobile node
     addresses only. Private addresses are defined in RFC1918 [3].   
     The solutions discussed in the document is solely based upon 
     Mobile IP [2] and Reverse Tunneling for Mobile IP [1]. No other
     mechanisms such as Network Address Trnaslators etc. are part of
     this solution.

     It has been deemed by ISPs that having reverse tunnel and limited
     private address support in their operating environment are 
     essential for deployment of mobile IP devices as number of publicly
     routable IP-addresses are scarce and do not meet the demand of high
     volume of mobile devices, such as laptops, PDAs and cell-phones.
     Private addressed mobile nodes can be deployed in 3G wireless
     environment and as well as in enterprise realms.

     The private addressed mobile nodes are associated with it's home
     agent and thus two mobile nodes belonging to same home agent can

INTERNET DRAFT                                            February 2002


     communicate with each other through reverse tunnel even when they
     are visiting foreign domains. The packets from the private mobile
     nodes to each other must be reverse tunneled, as the private 
     addresses are not routable through the internet. However, the
     assumption is that the foreign agent's care-of-address and home
     agent address are all publicly routable addresses.

     Operation in the presence of route optimization [4] is outside the
     scope of this document.

2.0  Terminology

     The document uses the following terms in addition to what is 
     defined in [1] and [2].

     LPAS
        Limited Privated address Scenario which can be used by ISPs
        and enterprizes given the current state of Mobile IP
        specifications.

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED",  "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [9].

3.0  Mobile Node Requirements

     The following are the requirements for private addressed mobile
     nodes in the limited private address support scenario.

     o Mobile node MUST obtain reverse tunnel through registration as
       described in Reverse Tunneling for Mobile IP [1].

     o A mobile node MUST have unique home address in it's home domain

     o A mobile node with public co-located COA may use private home
       address via reverse tunnel

     o A mobile node may never visit home and always roams. An example
       will be cell-phones.

4.0  Home Agent Requirements

     o Home Agent MUST support reverse tunnel encapsulation and
       decapsulation and process registration request with 'T' bit
       set.

     o The home agent MUST not support overlapping private addresses
       for mobile node's home address. Thus it MUST assign unique
       private home address to each of it's mobile nodes.

INTERNET DRAFT                                            February 2002


     o  The home agent SHOULD be able to assign private addresses out
        of it's address pool to the mobile nodes for use of home
        addresses. This is in accordance with section 3.8 of [2].
 
     o  Home agent address MUST be a publicly routable address.

 5.0  Foreign Agent Requirements

     o  All advertising interfaces of the foreign agent MUST have
        publicly routable care-of address. Thus, a mobile node with a
        private address visits the foreign agent only in its publicly
        routable network. This restriction is to avoid visiting private
        addressed subnets in the foreign network. 

     o  Foreign agents MUST support reverse tunneling in order to
        support private addressed mobile nodes. If a foreign agent
        receives a registration request from a mobile node with a
        private address, and the mobile node has not set the 'T' bit,
        the foreign agent SHOULD reject it.

     o  If a foreign agent supports reverse tunneling, then it MUST
        support the simple scenario of private address support, i.e
        LPAS.

     o  A foreign agent MUST disambiguate among mobile nodes with
        conflicting private addresses by using link-layer inforamtion
        and or home-agent information.

     o  A foreign agent should make sure that two mobile nodes visiting
        the same foreign agent corresponds with each other through their
        respective home agents.

6.0  Possible Usage Scenarios


 1)  Two private addressed mobile nodes visiting same foreign agent and
     the mobile nodes have same home agent.

                    |                   |
                 +-----+                |
                 | MN2 |                |
                 +-----+                |

                                        | HAA1
                                    +------+

                                    +------+

   Note that if IF1 = IF2, then COA1 = COA2 and this is a valid
   scenario or configuration. COA1, COA2 and HAA1 are all publicly
   routable addresses.

 2) Two private addressed mobile nodes visiting same foreign agent and
    the mobile nodes have different home agent. MN1 and MN2 may or may
    not have same (overlapping) IP -addresses.

other since they belong to different HAs. For the case that IF1 = IF2,
refer to section 7.0.

3) Two mobile nodes are visiting different foreign networks/foreign
   agents, the mobile nodes actually belong to a single home agent.

7.0  Implementation Considerations and Limitations
  
     When two mobile nodes with same private addresses visit a single
     foreign agent on the same shared link or share the same COA, foreign
     agent must distinguish between the two, in both direction of packet
     flow. For example, in forward direction, if mobile nodes use unique
     point to point links, foreign agent can distinguish easily by their
     interface identification. But there is a problem when the mobile
     nodes sharing same private addresses visit the foreign agent on the
     same shared link such as ethernet. In this case, IP address to 
     ethernet address mapping becomes ambigous, thus ethernet address 
     lookup must consider some other mobile-node specific information to
     support private addressed mobile nodes correctly on the shared link.
     The same problem appears while forwarding to the reverse tunnel, to
     avoid this problem reverse tunnel lookup may consider matching with
     ethernet address as well. This may not be an easy solution and may
     require architectural change in the IP kernel implementation. In a 
     nutshell, it is better to provide mobility service to the private
     addressed mobile nodes through one-to-one link - such as point-to-
     point link in 3G wireless CDMA environment. Some implementations may
     choose to use other link-level information, such as mobile node
     identification number to distinguish between two conflicting
     private addressed mobile nodes visitng the same agent on the same 
     link. Appendix A.3 of RFC3024 [1] has elaborated this situation.



Chakrabarti, Montenegro, Yokota   expires August  2002          [Page 6]

INTERNET DRAFT                                            February 2002


     If a private addressed mobile node registers with two diferent home
     agents using the same shared link or via same COA, it SHOULD use
     different home addresses.

     Thus a foreign agent should use <MN's IP address, HA's address,
     MN's unique id> to distinguish two different private addressed
     mobile nodes in the reverse direction (for reverse tunnel).
     Note that MN's unique identification is implementation dependent.
     

     From the above scenarios it can be observed that two private
     mobile nodes can communicate to each other if they belong to the
     same home agent. A private-addressed mobile node can communicate to 
     a correspondent node in its home network. But the mobile node will
     not be able to communicate with a correspondent node in the global
     internet. In order to solve this problem, it is recommended that
     the mobile node implementation should request a global address to
     it's home-agent through NAI. This requires modification of RFC2794
     as currently it does not distinguish between private and global
     addresses. (XXX: How about having a modification in
     rfc2794 to introduce another field for address type ?)

        0                   1                   2                   3
       0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
      |     Type      |    Length     | Address Type  | MN-NAI ...
      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
 
     Address Type = 0 (global)  1(private)
 
      
     Alternatively, a mobile node may be configured with separate home
     agent services for supplying  private and public addresses to it.
     Thus, it can obtain public address through the designated home 
     agent when necessary to use a global home-address. This solution
     implies that a address-less mobile-node can be configured with
     two home-agent addresses, each providing private ip-address and
     global ip-address respectively via NAI [8] request.
      

     The expiration period of the assignment of a global address to a 
     mobile node should not be shorter than the accepted lifetime of 
     the registration, and it should be extended when the registration
     is successfully updated.


     Private addressed mobile nodes using Network Address Translation
     [6] are out of scope of this document. Such situations are
     discussed in Mobile IP NAT/NATPT traversal [7] document. However,
     adoption of Mobile IPv6 [9] will provide a long term solution for
     device address scalability.

Hello folks,

A few days ago, I posted a proposal worked out by Jari Malinen,
Francis Dupont, and myself that should be a very simple way to
eliminate any possible inconsistency between piggybacking and
IPsec -- by the simple device of having a "final" Mobility Header
and a "nonfinal" Mobility Header, that are otherwise the same.
In this way, all possible conflicts with IPsec are removed, and
yet endpoints that enable payload with Binding Updates are able
to get that performance improvement.

In order to avoid duplicating text, I put the proposal at the
following URL:
    http://people.nokia.net/charliep/txt/mobilev6/piggybacking.txt

Before this proposal, there was a pretty even split within the
working group -- some were for, some against. The main objection
seems to center around difficulty with IPsec policy management,
and our proposal eliminates that problem entirely.  Thus, I think
that we should be able to include this into the base specification,
and I am hoping that there will be no one objecting -- because
in effect everyone gets what they want!

With this note, I am attempting to gauge consensus on this issue.

Thanks for your consideration of my request.

Regards,
Charlie P.

Not correct any more:
A Home Agent reveals its own full address using the "Modified Prefix
Information Option" (6.2 in draft-15).
This is needed by other Home Agents to build the list of Home Agents
for the "Home Address Discovery" procedure.

The MIPv6 specification has a mechanism (the 'R' bit in prefix options for
router advertisements) that allow for home agent discovery to work as well as
this HA for a previous CoA to work. That has the effect of providing global as
well as site-local addresses of the router to the nodes on the link.

I don't think security of the routers should depend on their global addresses
being 'secret'. Traceroute would presumably return them in any case.

The benefits of creating a binding for a previous CoA is a function of
the time it takes to do this update - the goal is to prevent packets that
are in transit from CNs (and perhaps MN) from being dropped on the previous
link. Perhaps this is better done using other local mechanisms to minimize
packet drops during handoff?

The security requirements for the HA result in the assumption that the MN
has a pre-configured arrangement with its HA in order to associate
the authorization to do bindings for the HoA with an IPsec SA. 
If this is applied to the HA for the previous CoA it would seem to
require some form of pre-establishment there as well.
But that wouldn't introduce any new security concerns and not require
additional specification work.

Doing RR after the MN has moved away doesn't work. The RR check for the 
HoA i.e. previous CoA in this case would assume that the MN is reachable
at the previous CoA, which it isn't.
So unless this RR check is performed (and "refreshed") before the MN moves
and the RR check for the new CoA is done after the move, can RR be made
to work in this case.
Seems complex.

Charlie,

I recall seeing a point about security gateways imposing policy
i.e. the sender of the piggybacked message might not be able
to tell what policies apply to the MH and the payload in the case of a SG
with fine-grained policy.

I think this needs to be better understood.

So I think there is some additional thinking and writing necessary.
I personally see no harm in pursuing this as a separate short specification -
and it has benefits of being able to do things more in parallel by
avoiding cramming everything into the same specification.

hi Karen,

The answer is very simple.

The current proposal is to use both a final and non-final Mobility
Header (MH). In Case 1, the non-final MH is used (because it is 
being piggybacked). And when the intermediate router (SG) receives
this packet, it treats the MH as a normal extension header, scans
past it, finds the payload and applies the appropriate IPSec
policy. This should work.

You were right, but the problem exists with the earlier proposal. 
Not with the most current piggybacking proposal which has both
a final and non-final MH.

Vijay

I was speaking of IPv6 routers in general. A Home Agent is
a special IPv6 router, and I believe, if the BU security discussion
recommendations are followed, the host will have some kind
of strong, long lasting security association with it. Therefore, I don't
see
much problem in revealing a global address (it would be
necessary for the IPsec SA anyway, if I my understanding
of how IPsec policy is used in this case is correct).

However, the AR is in the foreign network. Revealing
a global address there is an entirely different matter.
Do we expect the MN to have an IPsec SA with
every AR in the foreign network that implements
on-link "home agent" functionality?

Karen Nielsen sent two emails to highlight
the inability to piggyback some RR messages
since they are placed in IPsec tunnels 
by the HA. You can generalise the same 
problem for Security Gateways, in those cases
the MN might not be aware of security policies by
intermediate routers (SGs). 

Also the note was only relevant to IPsec and 
didn't address the QoS issues (e.g. when using 
Diffserv e2e or when having the Diffserv bits
set by intermediate routers). These comments
were explicitly made by David Oran and to some
extent in my earlier emails. 
So I don't think the IPsec issues alone can justify
the introduction of piggybacking in the basic
spec.

The DT recommends that "on-link" or temporary home agent (previous
AR) should process BUs from MNs only if it has an SA with it. The same
security requirements that are applicable for the normal MN-HA BUs are
aplicable to the temporary HA. 

The base MIPv6 specification hence will not permit MNs to send BUs to
previous ARs (temporary HA). However with FMIPv6 or other future
extensions we could specify how an MN can establish an SA with its AR
which can be for the specific purpose of having the AR act as a temp
HA.

And I responded to Karen. It is not an issue with the

I can't find it. Karen's last email was on this
proposal not your original proposal.

This is not an issue with the current proposal,
as Vijay has pointed out.

I responded at length to those e-mails.  There is no
issue with respect to piggybacking and QoS,
_unless_ you are trying to have some sort of
"implicit" QoS without asking for it.  In any
other case, the QoS signalling would trivially
be able to handle any setup required for
deciding whether or not to use piggybacking.

Charlie P.

Karen had a issue with the original proposal, which is taken
care of in the second proposal. Regarding her second mail, 
it wasnt raising an issue with the basic proposal. It was 
more like an opinion on whether piggybacking is possible for 
RR 1a and RR 2a messages. Its fine with me either way. In fact
the Yes with a (*) came from the original DT writeup. And the 
proposal says so too.

Do I understand this correct? The solution calls "burning" two
protocol numbers: one for new intermediate header and one for the
final?

At least, could save one by sticking to the original destination
options when intermediate.

If you are truly contemplating about creating a totally new extension
header number, you need to remember that currently deployed IPv6
stacks only know about following extension headers

  - Hop-by-hop header
  - routing header
  - destination options
  - ah, esp

If they scan the packet and run into *anything* else, they don't
recognize it as extension header. They either drop the packet or
assume it is upper layer protocol. They definitely not cannot skip
unknown headers.

     IPsec policy for    IPsec policy
     Mobility Message    for Payload    Can piggyback
 1.       no                 no              yes
 2.       no                 yes             yes
 3.       yes                no              no
 4.       yes                yes             no

Basicly, this table reduces

    Want IPsec for
   Mobility Message?
  1.       no     use intermediate header (dest options)
  2.       yes    use mobility header (no piggyback)

And just check on receive whether IPSEC was applied or not (reject
packet, report error or something).

The other point here, is that there is some pretty
heavy channel restriction being proposed to propagate
up the stack, which can easily be construed as
incompatible with IPv6. IPv6 requires minimum MTU
far larger than would interfere with inclusion of a
Binding Update, so all IPv6 nodes MUST be able to
handle such things. Doubly so, since IPv6 nodes have
to be able to parse extension headers in just this way.

Regards,
Charlie P.

OK. But I assume traceroute would show a site local or link local
address if the router only had that, right? So an attacker wouldn't be
able to hack into it even if they knew it was there, unless they could
break through the site local address routing. And I agree that keeping
the router's address "secret" is not sufficient for security, but it is
like making the TTL 255 on ND traffic, a quick and easy way to eliminate
one class of problems, don't you think?

Actually, I think so. This is precisely what the fast handoff proposals
do. The problem with forwarding from previous care of address is that it
is reactive and requires the MN to have a care of address. By the time
the MN has obtained a care of address, many packets may have been
dropped (note that other reactive proposals not requiring the MN to
obtain a care of address may not have this problem). The proactive
approaches in the FMIPv6 draft do better, because they allow the tunnel
to be set up as soon as the MN moves from the old AR.

Not sure whether this is a reason to drop forwarding from previous care
of address, it may have other advantages, if the security implications
can be fully worked out.

Agree.

OK, I presume this will be stated in the security section of the MIPv6
draft,
that all HAs have the same requirements with respect to security?

Probably a little premature for this, but it might be necessary to add
some
text to the FMIPv6 spec to cover this case.Alternatively, perhaps there
is a
way to achieve what FMIPv6 needs without requiring the MN to communicate
beyond the routers on its current link.

=> As Vijay pointed out in his most recent email,
there could be issues with piggybacking 1a and 
2a. Karen can speak for herself, but reading the
last email, it said something like 'strongly 
stress ....that piggybaking 1a and 2a is not possible'.

Also the other point was SGWs which the MN is 
not aware of.

=> First of all, no one is using e2e QoS signalling
today, please correct me if I'm wrong. 
Second, I might have missed on of your emails
but I'd appreciate a pointer on how 
Diffserv can be used here if there is a conflict
between the BU DSCPs and the payload's. 
Obviously Diffserv is not always used e2e and 
can be set by intermediate routers.

... which prompts me query, why need a new protocol number even. Would
this look too kludgy?

  - non final mobility: use the destination options (as originally
    specified)

  - when IPSEC is desired, send the destination options in separate
    UDP packet, and pick a well known port for it (assign it to
    mobility).

The new version of the Mobile IPv6 specification which will probably

I was just suggesting some possible approaches for solving this
problem. The WG will look at alternative solutions as well.

I can find this sentence in RFC2462.
Now, I'm clear.

Thanks.

Hi All,

One issue from the Diameter last call is:

 Issue 215: Use of hmac-md5 is incorrect 
 Submitter name: Pat Calhoun 
 Submitter email address: pcalhoun@bstormnetworks.com 
 Date first submitted: 25-Oct-01 
 Reference: 
 Document: base, aaa-keys 
 Comment type: Technical 
 Priority: 1 
 Section: 
 Rationale/Explanation of issue: 
 
 Need to make use that the use of md5 and hmac-md5 is consistent across 
 both drafts. The latest aaa-keys uses hmac-md5, but uses the incorrect 
 function prototype (it uses hmac-md5 with a prefix+suffix mode). 

I don't know if this has been fixed or not in the AAA-keys
doc.

John

Hesham,

=> Even if you only have site-local, you
can be attacked from within the site. 
Some routers will need global addresses anyway
if the network management nodes are not 
in the same site.

=> But all methods in FMIPv6 will do that. Some 
with explicit L3 signalling and some without. 
The question that comes to mind is: 
If there are security problems with explicit 
L3 signalling, does removing this signalling and
replacing it by inter-router signalling 
remove the problems ? ;) 
I mean, if the required security level for a node
to forward traffic to an address is to prove
that it has the authority for doing so (hence RR), 
can we just assume that any router sending 
this message to another router, will have 
such authority ? 
I'm just not so sure that the FMIPv6 problems
will go away if we remove the BU signalling
to the default router.

OK, but by not exposing the address to end
hosts, you decrease the chances. Also, if
the router needs to be managed from outside
the site, it could be done through a firewall-style
proxy. I'm not saying that site-local addresses
are the final answer to router security, just
that they strike me as a good idea, as does
not exposing the addresses to end hosts.

Well, with regard to FMIPv6,
my thinking here is that any time you can convert
two problems into one generic problem
and just solve the generic problem, you win. :-)

Thus, if we could figure out some way to make
the FMIPv6 signaling:

    router<->router
    host<->local link router,

then we could remove the problem of how to secure
off-link router<->host and be left only with
the problem of how to secure host<->local link router.
This is a generic IPv6 ND problem, as we have
been discussing in the IPNG list, and so a solution
for ND would work for FMIPv6 also. Just like
MIPv6 uses standard ND signaling for CoA
aquistion, instead of special signaling as in MIPv4.

The router<->router security is presumably taken
care of by the backbone routing.

Maybe the host<->local link router security
solution would also work for the host<->off-link router
solution too, of course, but it strikes me as a worthwhile
effort to try to simplify the security problems associated
with fast handover in MIPv6 if we possibly can.

Make sense?

=> Well, if it's to the link local address
then we would have a problem. It needs 
to be an address with larger scope I think.

=> There is an additional complication for FMIPv6. 
The DT recommended that RR is needed for the 
CoA as well. So this would make life extremely
complicated for FMIPv6 to be able to forward
before you move. 

I think we need to spend more time on it.

Just like
  > MIPv6 uses standard ND signaling for CoA
  > aquistion, instead of special signaling as in MIPv4.

=> ND does not have a concept of a HoA. The problem
with MIPv6 is that you need to verify 2 addresses. 
The problem with forwarding before moving is 
that you're essentially asking for a bombing attack
for a short period of time :) (until you verify
your CoA).

Let's talk about it off line next week. Maybe CT will help, though I've
heard some arguments against using CT for IPsec context. I'm hoping we
can have some of these issues worked out by Yokohama.

Folks,

The design team has worked for the last couple of weeks on
updating draft-ietf-mobileip-ipv6-15.txt based on the
discussions on the mailing list, the consensus that
has been reached, and discussions in the team beyond the
major issues present in the recommendations. As you surely
have noticed, we didn't produce a new version before the
Internet Draft deadline. However, we are approaching a
new version soon and intend to submit it next week.

Even if the current text is not very mature and there are
many serious problems in it, we thought it would be useful
to start reviewing and discussing this. Also, once the basic
message flows and formats are out, it becomes easier to discuss
issues on the mailing list. For this purpose we have provided
an early version for your review:

http://www.piuha.net/~jarkko/publications/mipv6/mipv6-modified-parts-pre16.pdf

This file contains only the modified parts in PDF format.
I'll send the full new I-D version in text format as soon
as I get it.

The modifications have also been listed under Appendix A.1
on page 61. Please note that this very much work in progress.
The below list gives some of the currently open issues or
parts have not been edited right yet:

- Need to get IPv6 interface ID bit allocated to be able to prevent
   bidding down.

- Figure out if alternative CoA can work with the RR messaging.

- Home agent operation, how to secure: use ESP or AH?

- Max BCE entry lifetime has to be specified somewhere.

- Use of HAO or not for home registrations.

- Authentication data, BU, BA exact formats e.g. parameter
   vs. fixed field.

- Should we specify that the correspondent nodes MUST be able to keep
   nonces and hence also cookies fresh for at least 60 seconds, in
   order to ease retransmission implementation on the mobile node
   side?

- Need suboptions on HAO any more?

- Securing BRs with authentication data inherited from the BU/BA time?

- SPI necessary?

- What to put in the future functionality section on e.g.
   unvHAO or piggybacking?

- Need state tables or better behaviour descriptions in the
   cn, mn chapters?

Comments are very much appreciated.

Yes, traceroute will show whatever address the routers picks for the 
ICMP error. But it is harder to make sense out of traceroute if these
addresses can't be convered to hostnames that carry some information.

So having the router not have a global address makes a lot of assumptions
about the operational aspects of the network.

If we want the MIPv6 specification and MNs implemented from it
be able to do bindings for a previous CoA when the previous default router
doesn't have a global address it seems like there has to be a way to
tell whether the site-local address of that router is in fact valid
in the new location of the MN after a move.

Yes, I think so.

Vijay,

How do the know header types allow the sender to determine the policy
at the SG?

Suppose the SG has a policy saying that the MH header type needs to be
protected. Are you disallowing such policies at the SG?

I also don't understand why the writeup says
   IPsec does this for any packet. If no policy exists, the
   final header type MAY be changed to the non-final extension,

If it doesn't get changed then the SG can't have a policy for the payload
either.
So I think it should be a MUST instead of a MAY above, but the note
doesn't explain the reasoning for the MAY.

The following issues were discussed (some cases solutions were
suggested) at the Connectathon 2002 discussion session on MIPv6
spec issues. MIPv6 participants at Connectathon would like to
see these issues resolved/clarified  at draft-16 version of MIPv6 draft.

1) The correspondent node section should specify what status code the CN
   would return if it receives a de-registration BU for which there is no
   matching binding exists. Currently, it can only specify status (128- reason
   unspecified), but it's better to have a specific status code to indicate
   to MN that there is no BCE to delete. Otherwise, MN would not know whether
   the BACK status code is for some other reason or non-existent BCE. A new
   status code is perhaps a better choice for security concerned MNs which want
   to delete it's BCE from the CN before going away.

2)  When neighbor solicitation is sent to the global address of the MN at it's 
   home network, should HA tunnel this to MN ? At Connectathon discussion, the 
   rough consensus was that NS should be filtered out. The draft should specify 
   the behavior in this case. 
 
3) Should the implementation drop the piggybacked data if the BY sequence number 
   is out of order (if piggybacking is adopted)  ?  

4) Apparently the draft-15 (section 5.2) is not quite clear on benefit of setting
   refresh value of BACK.  The draft describes home-agent node and non-homeagent 
   cases and specifies that the refresh value SHOULD be equal to the lifetime for
   non-home-agent nodes. Question was raised in the discussion on usage of refresh
   field as it is a 32 bit quantity. If it's not that useful, removing the refresh
   field would save bits where bandwitdth is limited or expensive.

5) section 9.4 of draft-15 says that HA uses routing header when it communicates
   to the MN while it's not home and HA has a BCE for the MN.
   The de-registration section is not clear (section 9.2), whether HA would use
   routing header or not with the BACK when MN is back home. It does not make
   sense to have routing header with the BACK while MN is back home. The draft
   should specify the steps in this case whether HA would delete the BCE first
   and then send BACK to the MN without routing header. This clarification is
   highly needed in the draft, as it causes interoperability problem due to
   different interpretation of the meaning of the draft.

The following issues and questions were raised at the Connectathon 2002
event in March. 

Minor interoperability issues detected from RFC3220:

Section 3.5.2 says:

3.5.2. Mobile-Home Authentication Extension

   Exactly one authorization-enabling extension MUST be present in all
   Registration Requests, and also in all Registration Replies generated
   by the Home Agent.
   
   
   However, draft is not clear about the error code if multiple MN-HA extension
   headers were present. Should this be poorly formatted request ?
  
  
  
  Section 3.7.2.1 has a contradictory statement which should be corrected:
  
    If no Mobile-Foreign
   Authentication Extension is found, or if more than one Mobile-Foreign
   Authentication Extension is found, or if the Authenticator is
   invalid, the foreign agent MUST *silently* discard the Request and
   SHOULD log the event as a security exception.  The foreign agent also
   SHOULD send a Registration Reply to the mobile node with Code 67.


   If the FA silently discards the packet how should it send a reply to
   the MN ?
   
   
  
  Thanks, 
   -Samita

I definitely dont want an intermediate SG to apply any IPSec
policy to the Mobility Header. Protection for the Mobility Header
is end-to-end.

I am not sure I understood this paragraph. I am here in Minneapolis
the whole of sunday. I will talk to you sometime.....

Hello Samita,

I guess we should not have to have rfc3220bis for this!

That would seem appropriate to me.  There are probably other
such illegal formations that are not explicitly indicated by their
own error code, and they all would reasonably share that one
you suggest.

You are right that this is poor wording.  The intention was that the
Registration Request should not be sent on to the home agent, since
it was already rejected.  So, if one insisted on finding an arcane
interpretation to allow this, we could say that the "Request" is
discarded, and the Reply was newly generated.  But I already agree
with you that this isn't what people usually mean by "silently discard".

Regards,
Charlie P.

 In your previous mail you wrote:

=> catching an old mail...
   
   I'm trying to work out an example of where an MN tries to use IKE to do a BU
   with a CN.
   It goes something like this:
    - MN kicks IKE to set up a SA to use for the BU
   	Must the MN verify that it has a certificate with its HoA as
   	subject(alt)name to do this?
   	No, because then it would not be able to take advantage of the DNSSEC
   	reference above. Thus an IPsec SA is always attempted.
    - MN/CN finishes with SA establishment
   	If the subject(alt)name was the home address then the CN can conclude
   	that BUs protected by the SA are authorized for that Home Address.
   	If not the CN does a DNS lookup of the hostname in the certificate
   	subject(alt)name. It must use DNSsec for this i.e. all signature
   	chains must be verified (the way DNSsec normally does it).
   	If (one of) the IP addresses returned from the DNS is the HoA
   	then BUs protected by the SA are authorized for that HoA.
   	If the subject(alt)names are only mbox names (such as
   	erik.nordmark@eng.sun.com) then this will fail and the SA is
   	not useful for authorizing BUs.
   
   Does the above make sense?
   
=> yes, DNSsec moves the "should use IP addresses" to "should use FQDNs".

   The lookup of a hostname (FQDN) with DNSsec validation is presumably more
   expensive than the extra roundtrip caused by using RR together with IPsec.

=> this argument is valid if IPsec is used *only* for BU protection.
My concern is when IPsec is used for another reason, it should be allowed
to protect BUs too without extra-overhead (no RR for instance).

   And if RR is used together with IPsec you can also handle things
   for mbox certificates.
   
=> I strongly disagree: we should not mixed RR which has easy MITM
problems with strong authentication is the final goal is or
can be strong authentication.

Thanks

PS: this is more IPsec discussion than mobile IP.

Hi Viray,

I agree that the conflict between piggybacking and intermediate routers having IPSEC policies
that the MN's and the CN's not are aware off is non-relevant in the current proposal. 

However, the problem with the new proposal and the RR messages
is that the requirement that the RR messages (2b. and,
perhaps, 2a.)) should be protected in secure tunnels HA-MN means that 
NOT ONLY can these messages not be piggybacked - but they MUST be implemented as final
protocol elements in order to be detectable by the IPSEC selectors.

In other words the extension header approach will not be usable for the 
2a. and 2b. RR messages. So if you want to go with the extension header
approach, then half the RR messages must be implemented in a final protocol
element and half in an extension header. 
 
Karen

Okay. 2a and 2b cant be piggybacked (that means final Mobility
Header). Fine with me.

So?? I dont see the problem. 1a and 1b are initiated by MN (HoTI
and CoTI). And 2a and 2b (HoT and CoT) are responses from the CN.
Or I am too tired to figure out what you are saying....

are you at the IETF?

Well, one of the points I think I am trying to make is that FMIPv6 is
probably going to be better for fast handover, though there are other
reasons why one might want to do FPCoA. And if it were possible in
FMIPv6 to confine signaling between the mobile host and the local access
router, the mobile host would never need to discover a global or site
local address, it could always just use the on link address. This might
be able to reduce the security impact on FMIPv6 considerably.

Hello,

Following the discussion on this and similar topics in this mailing list,
we published a paper "Modeling IP-Based Mobility Management"
at CNDS 2002 (http://www.ece.neu.edu/conf/CNDS/2002/).
It is also available at 
http://www.ipsi.fraunhofer.de/~schfeld/Papers/cnds2002.ps
Comments are welcome.

From the Abstract:
We develop a simple model of mobility management,
analyse handoff performance as well as its effect on payload, and
explore the effect of hierarchies as well of some handoff variants.
Moreover, we show that the modeled mobility management is robust
even if the mobile device moves faster than handoff performance 
seems to allow.

Hi everybody,

I'm new to this list, so forgive me if this has been raised before
(although I couldn't find any reference in the archives).

I'm implementing hierarchical mobile ip (v4), so I'm using the document
"draft-ietf-mobileip-reg-tunnel-06"

In section B.2 there is a paragraph that states:

"
The crossover FA will receive both a Registration Request and a Binding
Update for the mobile node.  When the crossover FA receives the
Registration Request, it continues to send traffic via the old path
until it receives a valid Registration Reply with a Code indicating
success.  Then it starts sending traffic via the new route. "

But isn't this crossover FA the FA that will generate the registration
reply? I'm confused about the part "...until it receives a valid
registration reply...".

Maybe I'm missing something obvious here?


Thanks,
Nik Van den Wijngaert.

I am. 

However, I think that we are in full agreement. 
The fact that the RR 2a and 2b messages must be put in the final MH 
was all that I wanted to point out.

Hi Viray,

Conceptually though, one aspect of the problem still stands in the sense
that by allowing the optional implementation of MIPv6 Control Messages in extension headers then they (MIPv6 control messages) cannot in general be protected by IPSEC policies 
set-up by the network (for some reason unknown to the user) over certain un-trusted links.

Hello all;

This email is quite long and I appreciate it if as many people as possible
have the patience to read through it and post their input.

I exchanged few emails with Charlie Perkins which led me to post the
following for this mail list.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++++++++
From my reading of RFC3220 and RFC3012 (RFC3102-bis), I would like to share
with all of you the following proposed interpretation to prevent a conflict
between these two RFCs.


1.	RFC3220 introduced a new term "Authorization-enabling extension" and
made it restricted that registration request MUST have only one
authorization-enabling extension after renaming the MN-HA Authentication
extension as authorization-enabling extension, as per section 3.5.2:
	"3.5.2. Mobile-Home Authentication Extension
   	Exactly one authorization-enabling extension MUST be present in all
   	Registration Requests, and also in all Registration Replies
generated
  	by the Home Agent.  The Mobile-Home Authentication Extension is
   	always an authorization-enabling for registration messages specified
   	in this document.  This requirement is intended to eliminate
problems
   	[2] which result from the uncontrolled propagation of remote
   	redirects in the Internet.  The location of the extension marks the
   	end of the authenticated data."

2.	This made it impossible for Mobile Node to include the MN-HA and
MN-AAA Authentication extensions in the same Registration Request.
3.	However, RFC3012 section 6 mandates Mobile Node to include MN-HA
Authentication extension in every Registration Request message as long as
the Mobile Node has a security association with its Home Agent. (MN MUST
always maintain a security association with all of its home agents, as per
RFC3220 (RFC2002)), 
             "6. MN-AAA Authentication subtype
   	"............................................  If the MN-AAA
Authentication
   	extension is present, then the Registration Message sent by the
   	mobile node MUST contain the Mobile-HA Authentication extension [8]
  	if it shares a security association with the Home Agent............"

4.	Also, RFC3012, mandates that the Mobile Node MUST include MN-AAA
Authentication extension whenever it does not have a security association
with the Foreign Agent, as in section 3.1.

Since, at least conceptually although it is not referenced any where in the
standard, MN-AAA authentication extension is viewed as an
authorization-enabling extension, this very wide interpretation causes a
real conflict between RFC3220 & RFC3012 (RFC3012bis). Therefore the
following interpretation proposes a solution for this issue:

1.	Since RFC3220 defines the Authorization-enabling extension as
follows in section 1.6:

	"Authorization-enabling extension
	An authentication which makes a (registration) message
	acceptable to the ultimate recipient of the registration
	message.  An authorization-enabling extension MUST contain
	an SPI.
	In this document, all uses of authorization-enabling
	extension refer to authentication extensions that enable the
	Registration Request message to be acceptable to the home
	agent. Using additional protocol structures specified 
	outside of this document, it may be possible for the mobile 
	node to provide authentication of its registration to the
	home agent, by way of another authenticating entity within
	the network that is acceptable to the home agent (for
	example, see RFC 2794 [6])."

2.	While RFC3012 introduced MN-AAA authentication extension to offer a
mechanism to authenticate the Mobile Node to the visited Foreign Agent, as
it is clearly obvious in the Abstract, Introduction, and section 3.1 ""3.1.
Mobile Node Processing for Registration Requests".

AND since the ultimate recipient of the Registration Request is always the
Home Agent, MN-AAA authentication extension does not comply with the
definition of the Authorization-enabling extension offered in RFC3220.

	1.	This will resolve the conflict and allows the Mobile Node to
always include the MN-HA Authentication extension (Authorization-enabling)
and MN-AAA authentication extension (not an authorization-enabling).
	2.	      When FA process the Registration Request received from
the Mobile Node, it is optional for the FA to forward the MN-AAA
authentication extension or remove it as per RFC3012 section 3.2.
	"The Foreign Agent MUST NOT remove the MN-AAA Authentication
Extension
   	from the Registration Request prior to the completion of the
   	authentication performed by the AAA infrastructure.  The appendix
   	provides an example of an action that could be taken by a foreign
   	agent."
	3.	Then HA always receives a MN-HA Authentication extension and
optionally MN-AAA authentication extension in every Registration Request. HA
may use AAA to get the shared secret key for authenticating the RRQ message
using MN-HA Authentication extension or use the MN-AAA authentication
extension through the AAA infrastructure.

Now As per Charlie's suggestion:

1.	A new cause code for the MN failing authentication at the Home Agent
using the AAA (MN-AAA authentication extension) may be needed.

2.	Also, RFC3012bis should be viewed as obsoleting the word "Exactly"
-- perhaps changing it to a "At least" in section 3.5.2 of RFC3220.
"3.5.2. Mobile-Home Authentication Extension
Exactly At least one authorization-enabling extension MUST be present in all
Registration Requests, and also in all Registration Replies generated 
by the Home Agent."

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+++++++++

Thanks for your consideration.

Ahmad Muhanna

True. But as I said in an earlier mail, protection for Mobility Header
is end-to-end. I dont like an intermediate security gateway applying
some IPSec policy to the Mobility Header. Cant think of any scenario
where it would be useful.

Still, even if IPSEC and MIP6 are implemented on same host, it is bad
design if they have to be aware of each other.

I still propose the following solution

1) no new protocol numbers are assigned/requested

2) MIP6 information is passed in Destination options pretty much as
   original RFC/(or Draft?) specified

3) if MIP6 wants a specific IPSEC protection, then it does not
   piggyback existing streams, but instead "piggybacks" it's own
   generated UDP packets with a port that is designated for the
   purpose. (This is about the only difference to the original drafts:
   use UDP instead of "No Next Header")

Seems pretty simple and clean to me.

Hi Nik,

the reason is that section B.2 deals with home registrations, where the 
Registration Request has to go all the way to the HA, which means that the 
FA must wait for a Registration Reply from the HA.

In section B.3, which deals with Regional Registrations, the FA generates 
the Registration Reply.

Jari

I was just looking at this doc and noticed that it's requiring
a correspondent node to send Message 3 and 4 of the RR simultaneously.
That implies that the correspondent is supposed to wait for both
Message 1 and 2 of the RR to arrive (as they are not guaranteed to
arive at the same time).  Is that intentional?

Just looking for a clarification.

Hi, Ahmad,

I agree with this approach, except for your point 3 below:

 > 	3.	Then HA always receives a MN-HA Authentication extension and
 > optionally MN-AAA authentication extension in every Registration Request. HA
 > may use AAA to get the shared secret key for authenticating the RRQ message
 > using MN-HA Authentication extension or use the MN-AAA authentication
 > extension through the AAA infrastructure.

I think there are cases, such as dynamic HA assignment, where the MN
doesn't have an association with the HA at first.  So, we should allow 
cases where the MN includes ONLY MN-AAA in the RRQ and it is the basis 
for authentication at the HA.

Also, I would like to clarify the rules for when the FA can strip out
the MN-AAA: it can do so after verifying it with a AAA infrastructure, 
and only if a MN-HA authentication extension was present previously in
the RRQ.

Markku,

This would not allow the RR packets (HoT in particular) to be protected using
an IPsec tunnel between the HA and MN. Without this protection 
any nodes on that path, including anybody on the link the MN is visiting,
can send forge BUs for the MN.

Using a separate terminal payload type for the RR packets allows doing this
as well as using IPsec to protect home registrations.

Vladislav,

That isn't the intent so it seems like a clarification is needed.

The CN responds to the CoTI with a CoT and the HoTI with a HoT
independently (and without creating any state).

The MN then needs to wait for both the CoT and HoT before it has the
cookies necessary to send the BU.

You left out my final point. This is the "separate terminal payload":

3) if MIP6 wants a specific IPSEC protection, then it does not
   piggyback existing streams, but instead "piggybacks" it's own
   generated UDP packets with a port that is designated for the
   purpose. (This is about the only difference to the original drafts:
   use UDP instead of "No Next Header")

This is *FINAL* header, header such is needed. IPSEC can latch on the
selected well known port.

I think this means that at least HoT always need to be carried in UDP
and also that BU/BAck used for home registrations need to be carried in UDP.

It would seem complex to be able to handle the same messages (BU/BAck) carried
both in UDP and in DO. What would we gain from this?

No, UDP payload would be empty. It's always DO. Thats the beauty of it.

Hi Charlie,

Here's my suggestion for text describing the nature of the Mn<->AAA security
association.

Mobile Node - AAA Security Association
The security association shared between the Mobile Node and the AAA home
server is used for mutual authentication. It is also used when deriving
Mobility Security Associations from the key material distributed via the AAA
and Mobile IP protocols. The Security Association consists of at least one
(potentially more) Security Context. Each Security Context is uniquley
identified by a SPI, and consits of an algorithm identifier, a key, and a
lifetime. Distribution of the Security Association is outside the scope of
this document, one example is that it can be manually configured. When
deriving Mobility Security Associations one calculates a value for the key
using the algorithm and key pointed to by the AAA SPI in the key
distribution extension toghether with the received key material. The
calculated key is then stored in the new Mobility Security Context toghether
with the other necessary data recieved in the key distribution extension.

Hi Pete;
I thought that I sent this message but it seems that it did not go through.

Well, I would like to agree with you, However, the following points make it
very difficult:

I.	RFC3220 (RFC2002):
	It is mandatory for the Mobile Node to have a security association
with all of its Home Agents as per 
	section 3.6.

	"3.6. Mobile Node Considerations

  	 A mobile node MUST be configured with a netmask and a mobility
   	security association for each of its home agents.
	.....
	"	
2.	RFC3012:
	It is mandatory that MN must include the MN-HA authentication
extension in every RRQ message as long as the mobile 	Node shares a
security association with its home agent, as per section 6. below.

Now, in my opinion, anything else needs to change the existing standard
including RFC3220, which mandates the MN to maintain a security association
with its Home Agents.

However, in the case of dynamically allocated Home Agent: 
As per RFC3220, the MN must have a security association with its home
agents. 
This means that the MN MUST have this security association before sending
any RRQ messages.

I think the best approach without introducing any serious conflicts and
changes in the standard may be the following:
1.	MN MUST maintain at all times a security association with all of its
home agents or HOME DOMAIN.
2.	I assume that Dynamically allocated HA is one which belongs to the
MN Home Domain.
3.	If the Dynamically allocated HA does not have the security
parameters available for this MN, it MUST inquire it 
	(ex. AAA infrastructure) to get the needed security parameters to be
able to authenticate the MN.
4.	IF the HA or Home Domain needs to update (for example) the shared
secret key with the MN, it always can be done after 	the initial RRQ with
the last (configured or updated) security parameters the MN shares with its
Home Agents 
	(Home Domain).

Thanks for consideration.
Regards;

Ahmad Muhanna

Hi, Ahmad,

I agree with this approach, except for your point 3 below:

 > 	3.	Then HA always receives a MN-HA Authentication extension and
 > optionally MN-AAA authentication extension in every Registration Request.
HA
 > may use AAA to get the shared secret key for authenticating the RRQ

I think there are cases, such as dynamic HA assignment, where the MN
doesn't have an association with the HA at first.  So, we should allow 
cases where the MN includes ONLY MN-AAA in the RRQ and it is the basis 
for authentication at the HA.

Also, I would like to clarify the rules for when the FA can strip out
the MN-AAA: it can do so after verifying it with a AAA infrastructure, 
and only if a MN-HA authentication extension was present previously in
the RRQ.

-Pete

every RRQ message as long as the mobile &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Node =
shares a security association with its home agent, as per section 6. =
below.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>Now, in my opinion, anything else needs to change the =
existing standard including RFC3220, which mandates the MN to maintain =
a security association with its Home Agents.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>However, in the case of dynamically allocated Home =
Agent: </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>As per RFC3220, the MN must have a security =
association with its home agents. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>This means that the MN MUST have this security =
association before sending any RRQ messages.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>I think the best approach without introducing any =
serious conflicts and changes in the standard may be the =
following:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; MN MUST maintain at =
all times a security association with all of its home agents or HOME =
DOMAIN.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I assume that =
Dynamically allocated HA is one which belongs to the MN Home =
Domain.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If the Dynamically =
allocated HA does not have the security parameters available for this =
MN, it MUST inquire it </FONT></P>

<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <FONT SIZE=3D2>(ex. AAA =
infrastructure) to get the needed security parameters to be able to =
authenticate the MN.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; IF the HA or Home =
Domain needs to update (for example) the shared secret key with the MN, =
it always can be done after &nbsp; the initial RRQ with the last =
(configured or updated) security parameters the MN shares with its Home =
Agents </FONT></P>

<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <FONT SIZE=3D2>(Home =
Domain).</FONT>

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

below:</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; =

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>I think there are cases, such as dynamic HA =

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

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; 3.&nbsp;&nbsp; However, RFC3012 section 6 =

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

I argee with most of the things that the design team have done in
mipv6-modified-parts-pre16, but I noticed a few technical issues that
ought to be fixed, plus a bunch of typos:

Technical Comments
==================

4.5.5, step 5

We need to be able to support alternative methods for calculating K_BU (e.g.
CGA schemes, manually configured keys, IPSEC ...). This document does not need
to specify the details of these alternative mechanisms, but it does need to say
two things:

  (a) It needs to say that there might exist alternative schemes that have
      most of their protocol steps in common with the protocol described in
      this document, but have a different step 5.

  (b) It needs to describe how a CN node knows that this particular scheme (RR)
      is being used, rather than one of the others that have a different step
      5.

      The obvious way to do this is to have a field in the BU that indicates
      which  crypto scheme is being used. This needs to be combined with some
      mechanism to prevent bidding down.

4.5.5, steps 6 and 7.

The key K_BU should not be used to protect messages from the CN to the MN.
The way in which K_BU is constructed means that it isn't suitable for
protecting messages in this direction: The MN has no reason to believe that K_BU came from the CN or that it is fresh. I recommend not authenticating
BA's - the threat of forgeed BAs is not very great.

5.2.7

The SPI isn't necessary. At least, it isn't necessary if you're just using RR.
It might be needed in an alternative crypto scheme that used IPSEC somehow.
The SPI should be an option.


8.3.2

"Any Binding Update which fails to satisfy all of these tests for any other
reason (than insufficiency of the Sequence Number) MUST be silently ignored,
and the packet carrying the Binding Update MUST be discarded."

  - There are other situations in which the CN must be sent back an error
    message, rather than dropping the packet. If the nonce indices are too
    old, the CN needs to tell the mobile to re-run the RR tests.


Re-use of HoT

I believe that it is not necessary to test HoA RR every time a BU is sent. In
particular, when the mobile's CoA changes, the MN can send a BU as soon as it
has received a COT at its new CoA. The MN does not need to wait for a new HOT,
as long as it can remember a previous recent HOT. This optimization is
important, as it makes hand-offs faster. The  HOT will take longer to arrive
than the COT, because (a) it has to take a longer path through the network
(b) the MN won't be able to receive HOT messages via its home agent until the home agent has accepted a binding update for its new CoA --- in the meantime,
the HA will be forwarding HOT messages to the MN's old CoA, and they won't actually reach the MN.

Other points on fast hand-offs

If a MN has two interfaces, it can send COTI and receive COT for (potential)
CoAs on both interfaces, but only send a BU for a CoA on its preferred
interface. Then, if the preferred interface dies suddenly, the MN already has
the COT response that it needs to change its CoA to the other interface.
This should be explained somewhere. (Possibly in another document).

Editorial Comments
===================

4.5.4

"Therefore the protection against replays and reordering attacks works
when the attacker remembers up to a maximum of 2ˆ31 Binding Updates."

  - How many bits are there in the sequence number field?
    The above suggests that the sequence number is 32 bits, but
    5.1.7 which says it's 16 bits.

  - The "2^32" is very badly typeset in the PDF version of the document

4.5.5

"4. CN -> MN(CoA): CoT(K1, l)
5. MN(CoA) -> CN: BU(HoA, CoA, MAC, j, l)

   - Why is this variable called l? It's called i elsewhere.
   - The font used in the PDF makes it hard to distinguish this from a 1.

4.5.5

"The cookie and the value i are sent directly the mobile node."

Missing word "to".


"Older values can be discarded, and messages using them will can be rejected
as replays."

Extra word "can".


                              ==========================

I think that we should be able to get this document into good shape very soon,
possibly by the end of the week.

Hello Ajoy,
Could you send me a copy of the paper you discussed in this email thread?
Mobility and 802.11
is a subject I am very interested in.
Best regards
Jim

Hello James,
I sent you the paper in the separate email. Due to oversize, 
the email with attachment did not go though the list. 
BTW, if any body needs to look at the attachment I can send
personal copy to them.

Hi Ajoy,

Well, perhaps I am wrong then and it would supplying a pre-Layer 2
trigger is simply an implementation issue. I think the
draft still has some value for Postreg, as Karim mentioned.

BTW, the paper you mentioned wasn't attached.

If so, the time to do so would be this week, so that we can get it in at
the same time we supply the mysteriously vanished text, and update the
"exactly one", and relieve the possibility for misinterpretation that was
noticed during Connectathon.

Yes, I agree. Getting L2 triggers on the mobile node side
for WLAN is an implementation issue. 

Getting L2 triggers on the AR/FA side requires a protocol,
IMO. Access point is what is aware of clients associating 
(link up) and disassociating (link down). Getting this information
from access point to the router behind it would require a transport.

=> Agreed. So a network initiation in WLAN is 
currently not possible as far as I know.
I read the paper that Ajoy sent and I think
it's more thant enough for WLANs.

Not so fast.

There is a problem on the mobile side as well in that the 802.11
standard *protocol* doesn't provide any signal prior to handover, it
just reassociates. Now, it is possible, depending on the 802.11 card and
driver, to force handover to a particular access point, note power level
and indicate when handover is likely and where, etc., but this is not
the same as getting a definitive L2 trigger saying when handover is
going to occur and where the MN will go, and it is *most definitively*
not portable. Some NIC cards/drivers support it, others don't.

As an example of a problem that could occur, suppose the driver makes an
assumption, based on power levels, that the MN is going to handover
somewhere and the IP level starts performing prehandover care of address
change. The standard has no commitment that the handover will, in fact,
occur, and it could equally well be aborted and the MN could handover to
another access point.

Bernard Abboba and I are attempting to raise this issue with the IEEE
802.11 committee, since they are interested in supporting fast handover.
Bernard gave a short presentation on the problem at the 802.11 meeting
in St. Louis last week, I'm planning on going to Vancouver in July along
with Bernard to discuss it in more detail with the committee.

Hello Charlie;

I am not sure how can we introduce new issues and text to the already
published standard (RFC3220) other than the mysteriously vanished text from
that RFC.
I believe we need to look into this very closely before rushing for any
changes.

Now, I believe any addition to the standard MUST consider 100% backward
compatibility with existing standard.
Existing HA rejects any RRQ message which does not contain MN-HA
Authentication extension. as per the standard RFC2002 (RFC3220).

If so, the time to do so would be this week, so that we can get it in at
the same time we supply the mysteriously vanished text, and update the
"exactly one", and relieve the possibility for misinterpretation that was
noticed during Connectathon.

Hi, Pete,
I believe the following points needs to be made clear:

1. It is good to preserve a sort of forward compatibility, however, we need
to keep in mind the more important issue which is backward compatibility.
2. When we need to support any argument, we can not use work in progress
documentation. In other words, we can not defeat existing standard by
referencing I-D which is not a standard yet.
3. As per (RFC2002) RFC3220 & RFC3012, existing HA does the following:
	i. 	Expects a SA with all of its home domain Mobile Nodes.
	ii.	Expecting a MN-HA authentication extension in every RRQ.
	iii.	MN-AAA authentication extension does not comply with the
definition of the authorization-enabling extension and 
		the only extension which is defined as
authorization-enabling extension is the MN-HA authentication extension.

4. Now, with all of the above in mind, It is very dangerous to patch the
standard here and there to satisfy future forward compatibility.
5. Interpretation of MIP standard should be done with the original and
current spirit and understanding rather than the future evolution and
understanding of MIP standard. This will only create more problems without
introducing a comprehensive solution.


I believe, a committee needs to take charge of this task with one objective
in mind "How to evolve MIP standard to be forward combatable with all of the
new understandings while maintaining a 100% backward combatability". 

Thanks for consideration;

Regards;

Ahmad Muhanna

Hi, Ahmad,

I understand your point of view, but some comments below...

Technically, "for each of its home agents" does not imply that there
is a home agent - the quantification "for each" could be the empty set.

Again, this is qualified with "as long as the mobile node shares a
security association."  No security association => no need for the 
extension.

I am trying to preserve a sort of "forward compatibility" with dynamic 
home agent assignment ala the Diameter Mobile IP application.  I think 
this was the intention of the language in 3220, which should have been,
"at least one authorization enabling extension."  The intention was to 
allow the MN to leave out MN-HA, especially for the case of dynamic HA
assignment.

 > I think the best approach without introducing any serious conflicts and
 > changes in the standard may be the following:

Where "all of" may be the empty set.

Maybe not - see
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-aaa-diameter-mobileip-09.txt

 > 3.	If the Dynamically allocated HA does not have the security

And if the HA is in the foreign domain, the keys must be generated for 
use by that session only and distributed to the MN in a new extension.

 > 4.	IF the HA or Home Domain needs to update (for example) the shared

I believe we will need to update the MN-HA key in the first RRQ/RRP,
sometimes.

Maybe the right approach is to update the text in 3220 to explicitly
allow zero security associations with home agents, if some other
"authorization enabling extension" is present in the message.

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&quot;at least one authorization enabling =
extension.&quot;&nbsp; The intention was to </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>allow the MN to leave out MN-HA, especially for the =
case of dynamic HA</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>assignment.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; I think the best approach without =
introducing any serious conflicts and</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; changes in the standard may be the =
following:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; 1.&nbsp;&nbsp; MN MUST maintain at all =
times a security association with all of its</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; home agents or HOME DOMAIN.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>Where &quot;all of&quot; may be the empty set.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; 2.&nbsp;&nbsp; I assume that Dynamically =
allocated HA is one which belongs to the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; MN Home Domain.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>Maybe not - see</FONT>

meter-mobileip-09.txt</A></FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; 3.&nbsp;&nbsp; If the Dynamically =
allocated HA does not have the security</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; parameters available for this MN, it MUST =
inquire it </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (ex. AAA =
infrastructure) to get the needed security parameters to be</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; able to authenticate the MN.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>And if the HA is in the foreign domain, the keys must =
be generated for </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>use by that session only and distributed to the MN =
in a new extension.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; 4.&nbsp;&nbsp; IF the HA or Home Domain =
needs to update (for example) the shared</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; security key with the MN, it always can =
be done after the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; initial RRQ with =
the last (configured or updated) security</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; parameters the MN shares with its Home =
Agents (Home Domain)</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>I believe we will need to update the MN-HA key in the =
first RRQ/RRP,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>sometimes.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>Maybe the right approach is to update the text in =
3220 to explicitly</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>allow zero security associations with home agents, =
if some other</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&quot;authorization enabling extension&quot; is =

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; Hi, Ahmad,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; I agree with this approach, except for =
your point 3 below:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt;&nbsp; &gt; &nbsp; =
3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Then HA always receives a MN-HA =
Authentication extension and</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt;&nbsp; &gt; optionally MN-AAA =
authentication extension in every Registration Request.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; HA</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt;&nbsp; &gt; may use AAA to get the shared =
secret key for authenticating the RRQ</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; message</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt;&nbsp; &gt; using MN-HA Authentication =
extension or use the MN-AAA authentication</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt;&nbsp; &gt; extension through the AAA =
infrastructure.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; I think there are cases, such as dynamic =
HA assignment, where the MN</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; doesn't have an association with the HA =
at first.&nbsp; So, we should allow </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; cases where the MN includes ONLY MN-AAA =
in the RRQ and it is the basis </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; for authentication at the HA.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; Also, I would like to clarify the rules =
for when the FA can strip out</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; the MN-AAA: it can do so after verifying =
it with a AAA infrastructure, </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; and only if a MN-HA authentication =
extension was present previously in</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&nbsp;&gt; the RRQ.</FONT>

As I understand it, MONET will follow mobile-ip protocols with some slight 
nuances.  Hopefully, this is a correct statement.  I see much of the 
discussion on the MONET list  moving MONET from a method of deployment 
directly compatible with mobile-ip to a MANET.   IMHO if you want to add 
all of the numerous stated bells and whistles, code should be written and 
tested and a relevant environment.   Not simulated, but actually put in 
some relevant networks and deployed.  Then the security, corporate policy, 
authentication to wireless (and wired) networks and other really important 
factors will come to light.

If we don't keep MONET simple, we'll never get it deployed.


Cisco does have an implementation of mobile router for IPv4.  It is very 
simple, yet very useful.  A few key items related to this deployment are:

1)  No routing protocols running over the interfaces between the FAs and 
Mobile router (MR).  The HA simply redistributes static routes.
2)  A second tunnel from HA to MR inside the HA to FA tunnel solves the MR 
problems with associations between the HA and MR configured as virtual 
networks vs single host ip addresses.  I believe this should also work for 
IPv6.  (I don't think I worded this well, but the following router 
configuration from our test network may help.)

We (NASA) have tested nesting mobile routers with the nested mobile 
router's network being blow the upper layer MR.  We have not tried a nested 
MR belonging to a different HA.   I suspect this will work, by the numerous 
tunnels may create significant performance degradations as far a the 
applications are concerned.

I also have plenty of technical remarks.  I would leave reporting
typos to later.

The RR described in on pages 12-13 of the pdf looks sound, but there
are many issues with converting this to the actual message, the bits
and bytes.  For example, HoT:
-the K0 is a HMAC-SHA1, then the output length is 96 I suppose, no
 reason to make it 128 as the message description on page 19, section
 5.1.5 would suggest.
-"The final 0 inside the MAC function": I think there's no need to
 code it on 32 bits, 1 bit would be sufficient.
-the HoT message has a bizzare look with the 4 reserved bytes not
 being contiguous.
I think that most of those aspects are currently under review.

I had sent a remark to Jari on adding new K2 and K3 to be put in HoTI
and CoTI such that when MN receives HoT and CoT it knows they were
initiated by itself.

There's also place left for the HA to modify the HoTI and HoT that
pass through it.  Draft says on page 20 end of section 5.1.t that "HoT
should be protected by ESP", while the true fact is that only the
tunnelled part of the HoT message (the message sent from HA to MN and
not the HoT sent from CN to HA).  Similar arguments apply to HoTI.

This induces here another need (probably) to name HoT=HoT-1+HoT-2 and
HoTI=HoTI-1 and HoTI-2.  If this renaming is done, then it can be
simply stated that ESP is applied to HoTI-1 and HoT-2, but not to
HoTI-2 and HoT-1, for example.

Applying ESP brings clean and much security, but involves probably
much computation on the MN that receives HoT-2; a much lesser demand
might be that HA just increases j for example.

There are many many things that need detailed consideration in the new
RR.  And I've not yet assimilated entirely the 64 pages.

Hi, Charlie,

Ok, understanding the urgency, how about the following text:

Change the first paragraph of Section 3.5.2 to read:

  At least one authorization-enabling extension MUST be present in all
  Registration Requests, and also in all Registration Replies generated
  by the Home Agent.  This requirement is intended to eliminate problems
  [2] which result from the uncontrolled propagation of remote redirects
  in the Internet.  The location of the extension marks the end of the
  authenticated data covered by that extension.

  The Mobile-Home Authentication Extension is always an
  authorization-enabling for registration messages specified in this
  document; future specifications may define additional
  authorization-enabling extensions.

And the first sentence of Section 3.6:

   A mobile node MUST be configured with a netmask and a mobility
   security association for each of its pre-assigned home agents or
   home agents that could be discovered on a home subnet according
   to procedures in Section 3.6.1.2.

Also, I assume that the missing text people have been discussing
covers the subnet-directed broadcast discovery mechanism in 3.6.1.2; I 
can't find it there now.

Also, I think the text in 3.6.1.3 (section header currently missing)
needs to change to:

      a) The IP header, followed by the UDP header, followed by the
         fixed-length portion of the Registration Request, followed by

      b) If present, any non-authentication Extensions expected to be
         used by the home agent (which may or may not also be useful to
         the foreign agent), followed by

      c) A mobile-home authentication extension, if present, followed by

      d) If present, any non-authentication Extensions used only by the
         foreign agent, followed by

      e) An authorization-enabling extension, if present, followed by

      f) The Mobile-Foreign Authentication Extension, if present.

   Note that item (a) and at least one of (c) or (e) MUST appear in
   every Registration Request sent by the mobile node.  Items (b), (d),
   and (f) are optional.  However, item (f) MUST be included when the
   mobile node and the foreign agent share a mobility security
   association.


I think that should do it.

I agree that we need backward compatibility, but I don't think that is
at issue
here.  A home agent will require a MN-HA authentication extension if and

only if it has a security association with the mobile node.  Thus, if a
home agent
is built to work with dynamically created assocations, delivered by AAA,

then by definition that home agent will be O.K. with the new
specification.

We can fix anything in RFC 3220bis independently of RFC 3012bis, which
is a
better approach than having RFC 3012bis obsolete language in the
yet-to-be-written
RFC3220bis.  On the other hand, the entire process has to be driven by
working
group consensus.  And, I sincerely hope that there is no such thing as
RFC3220bisbis
in any near future timeframe.

The intention for the "authorization-enabling" language in RFC 3220 was
exactly to enable authorization by means other than the MN-HA
authentication
extension.  It was a mistake not to change this, but nobody caught this
instance
of the inconsistency.  I did change seemingly innumerable other
instances of it.

I don't think this is really true, as I explained above.  Furthermore, I
do think it
is appropriate to eliminate straggling language that would have been
eliminated
before except that we just missed it.

I agree with you, and yet I see that we should still take the corrective
actions that have
been discussed.

Hmm... another committee...  I'm not so sure about this, but then again
if
there is a need I'll happily go along with the program, as long as the
committee supplies the text to go along with any future recommendations.

Alexandru,

The document doesn't say that the HA modify these packets - it merely
forwards then from/tom the tunnel to the MN.

Are you saying that there is a requirement that the HA be able to modify them?
Or is the document just unclear on the fact that they pass through unmodified?

The document is clear in that respect.

No, there's no requirement that HA be able to modify them.

It was just an idea that instead of applying ESP, HA might just
increase j.  If this doesn't bring anything valuable then that's fine.

Sorry for misunderstanding,

Alex

Agree with the above strongly. The cookie K0 (in the HoT) can be 
re-used for a short time (maybe a few minutes). Kbu is then derived 
from the new K1 and the re-used K0.

Hello Charlie;

We are in full agreement that any HA will never receive a RRQ message with
ONLY MN-AAA authentication except in the case that this HA does not have a
security association with the Mobile Node. (RFC3012bis & RFC3220 & this
discussion)

In reference to the backward compatibility issue:

If an existing HA (RFC2002) receives a RRQ message with ONLY the MN-AAA
authentication extension, it means that this HA does not have a security
association with the Mobile Node (against RFC 2002 but it is considered an
error scenario). It is not spilled out in RFC2002 what HA SHOULD do but it
can not send a RRP message since there is no SA with the MN. 
I assume that this HA discards this RRQ without sending a RRP message to the
MN.

This makes the existing HA(RFC2002) compatible with RFC3220 after replacing
the EXACTLY word with (At least) in section 3.5.2.
"At least one authorization-enabling extension MUST be present in all ..."


Regards;
Ahmad Muhanna

I agree that we need backward compatibility, but I don't think that is
at issue
here.  A home agent will require a MN-HA authentication extension if and

only if it has a security association with the mobile node.  Thus, if a
home agent
is built to work with dynamically created assocations, delivered by AAA,

then by definition that home agent will be O.K. with the new
specification.

We can fix anything in RFC 3220bis independently of RFC 3012bis, which
is a
better approach than having RFC 3012bis obsolete language in the
yet-to-be-written
RFC3220bis.  On the other hand, the entire process has to be driven by
working
group consensus.  And, I sincerely hope that there is no such thing as
RFC3220bisbis
in any near future timeframe.

The intention for the "authorization-enabling" language in RFC 3220 was
exactly to enable authorization by means other than the MN-HA
authentication
extension.  It was a mistake not to change this, but nobody caught this
instance
of the inconsistency.  I did change seemingly innumerable other
instances of it.

I don't think this is really true, as I explained above.  Furthermore, I
do think it
is appropriate to eliminate straggling language that would have been
eliminated
before except that we just missed it.

I agree with you, and yet I see that we should still take the corrective
actions that have
been discussed.

Hmm... another committee...  I'm not so sure about this, but then again
if
there is a need I'll happily go along with the program, as long as the
committee supplies the text to go along with any future recommendations.

Charlie P.

hi,

A question regarding section 9.6 (Protecting Return Routability
Packets). It says the home agent MUST protect the tunneled RR 
packets with an ESP header. IMO, this is pretty strong. Isnt it 
enough to say, "For additional security, the home agent should 
protect the RR packets with ESP in tunnel mode".

Imagine this. A MN has binding cache entries at multiple CNs.
Every time it moves, in addition to sending and receiving so 
many RR messages, it also has to decrypt the HoT messages from 
each of the CNs.

Also, it now becomes more important that we do the HoTI/HoT
test less often (by re-using cookie K0).

I think the above is a good remark.  Moreover, it's not only about
HoT-2 (the part of HoT that is sent by HA) but also HoTI-1.  Both
those messages should be ESP'ed optionally.  IMHO.

...and to encrypt all HoTI messages to its HA.

Hi all,

I have a question on QoS over Mobile IP using RSVP. If a corresponding =
node has multiple flows to a mobile node and the flows have different =
QoS requirements, how can intermediate routers and mobility agents =
distinguish the flows? It seems intermediate routers and mobility agents =
classify packet flows based on the source address or home address.  But =
in this case, the source address or home address are same. I am =
confused.=20

(Note: All parts of HOTI and HOT are sent by the MN and CN, the HA
just routes.)

Anyway, we originally didn't include any ESP on the HOTI message
because it didn't contain anything -- no cookies or anything beyond
the home address. However, we have since then considered adding
a cookie from the MN side, to be returned by the CN, as a means to
provide very weak form of authentication of the CN's responses. If
this is done, it would perhaps make sense to have ESP also for the
HOTI and not just HOT.

Pengbin,

I think you're confused, but it's perfectly
understandable because this is a pretty murky
subject :-) An RSVP router would definitely use
the CoA to classify packets, not the home address.
This is irrespective of whether this is a good or
bad thing for MIP: it's simply an artifact of RSVP
not having any notion of a home address option,
or, say, a prefix invariant flow selector. This
mainly leads to the necessesity of reestablishing
the reservation along the entire path to the CN
when you change CoA's.

That said, I don't really understand your issue
with multiple reservations. Normal RSVP handles
them just fine by setting up different flow
selectors bound to different tspecs. Clearly a
stationary node isn't ordinarily changing its
source address, so I guess I don't see what you're
finding problematic.

	 Mike

I think the key issue of QoS over MIP, which is different from the
traditional IP network framework, is how to guarantee the QoS of a
specific flow when the mobile node roams among diffrent networks.

The QoS parameters have to be 'roam' around different networks due to the
mobile node's moving.

Any idea on this issue?

   Well, I have some ideas about these issue, but there
   isn't anything that's standard. I wrote a draft a while
   back which is now expired going over many of the issues
   with MIP/RSVP interactions. It's still available at
 
   http://www.mtcc.com/standards/draft-thomas-seamoby-rsvp-analysis-00.txt

   Ultimately, I believe that the general intent was to
   resolve these issues in NSIS. A QoS requirements from
   mobile IP has also been written; Hemant Chasker was the
   editor.

Thanks a lot Mike for your valuable comments. Some responses below:

Ok. I added text to this effect.

We are thinking of using the Reserved field in BU and possibly also in [HC]OT{,I}

messages as a place for new flags that would do this. Do you think this is

sufficient?


And another question: do you think we should immediately put in two algorithms
such as SHA1 and MD5 for doing the hashes involved in the RR procedure? This is
often done in security protocols, but in this case I'm thinking the strength of
RR is not so big that we should be thinking about breaking hash functions as the
easiest attack...

Ok. We have however considered also a nonce-scheme where the MN sends a nonce that is to be
returned by the CN in all of its responses messages (HOT, COT) or included in the hash
of the response messasage (BA). Do you think that would be acceptable?

Agreed.

Yes.

I'm starting to think so as well. We do need to think about suitable
recommendations for the timers involved for home and coa cookie lifetimes
and so on.

Also, I think it was Erik who wondered if we might actually have a field
in the [HC]OT message to describe the expected (or committed?) lifetime of
the cookie, helping the MN decide whether it should redo something later or
not. This would bring some additional complexity though, and the MN has no
assurance in any case that the cookies really can be used anyway so perhaps
we should just have a recommendation and allow MNs to optimistically try these
things within those recommended limits. Or what do you think?

Interesting.

By the way, when an MN arrives at a new CoA, it could send a home BU immediately followed
by a HOT... hoping that there's no reordering. But I'm not sure this is a desireable
activity, since I don't know how the MN would recover if the messages were indeed
reorder. On the other hand, we could in theory design a home BU message that carried
a sequence of CN addresses to which the HA would create and send a HOTI on the behalf
of the MN.

Yes. We may leave also some of this smart 'caching' of RR activity to
smart implementers.

Thanks, fixed now.

SHA1 produces 160 bits I think, but usally folks are confident with
cutting hash outputs to 96 bits. 96/128 really doesn't matter so
we should pick the size based on alignment considerations.

Ok, let's re-align and re-size the messages once we agree that we
have all the fields.

At least 8 is needed to make typical implementations work well.
But since that is anyway one memory operation, might as well make it
the current 32.

Agreed. Changed now.

Yes, but doesn't the draft say "... between the MN and the HA"?
I think that should be enough to clarify that we don't expect
to run IPsec between HA and CN.

This is an interesting suggestion, the security impacts have to
be thought out. I don't think changing j/i is sufficient since attackers
could easily observe the progress of these values on the cn (they are
same for all mns). Changing Home Cookie would do the job, but I wonder
if changing == encryption?

Your feedback is very much appreciated. Keep on commenting the rest
as well...

I agree with 'MUST implement'. but selectively used. Maybe it 
can be indicated by the mobile node with a flag in the BU 
message.

If a particular wireless link is protected by IPSec ESP (between
the AR and the MN) or link layer encryption, the MN indicates to 
the HA that it does not want to protect HoTI/HoT messages with ESP. 
If the MN is moving too fast, it indicates the same to the HA.

And the earlier sentence now becomes "If additional security is
required (indicated by the MN in HA BU??), the HA and MN should
protect the RR packets with ESP in tunnel mode"

Does that sound good?

Vijay

=> Sure, but we never assumed that 802.11 was connection-oriented.
The assumption was that this is an implementation issue.
The paper Ajoy referred to, shows that windows already
supports this.

=> The handover is decided by the MN. So if the MN decided
in the last minute (so to speak) to change AP, then 
maybe there will be no time for anticipation. But 
I think Handover failures are possible in any scenario, there
is not much we can do about this on the IP layer.

Well, there is an issue in FMIPv6 about when to start forwarding packets
through the tunnel to the MN on the new link. If there is no signal on
the router at Link Down, then the tunnel must start when the F-BU is
received by the old access router. This results in termination of packet
delivery prior to the actual Layer 2 handover, and thus more lost
packets than if a Link Down trigger is available.

So I think having a Link Down trigger in 802.11 would be helpful for
this.

=> Sure, the trigger is needed. I wanted this trigger
mainly for the multi-interfaced hosts. Applying this to 
the single interfaced host would mean two things:

- The host can be multi-homed for a short period. 
  I.e. The host connects to two ARs at the same time
  (on the IP layer of course).

- This connection to both ARs, is represented at 
the IP layer as 2 interfaces. Because you need to
identify which interface is up or down.

=> Sure, but we never assumed that 802.11 was connection-oriented.
The assumption was that this is an implementation issue.
The paper Ajoy referred to, shows that windows already
supports this.

Ajoy-> The paper seems to indicate that it is possible to support 
this in some WLAN driver. But frankly we have not been able to 
realize this in our lab setup. I would still think having IEEE to provide 
some standard mechanism to support L2 triggers will be really helpful.

=> The handover is decided by the MN. So if the MN decided
in the last minute (so to speak) to change AP, then 
maybe there will be no time for anticipation. But 
I think Handover failures are possible in any scenario, there
is not much we can do about this on the IP layer.

=> Ideally, yes. But I just didn't think
that any SDO can mandate an API that is internal
to a device. If they do then it would be great!
Unless they want to go down the track of making
WLANs connection-oriented, which is a major change
in the WLAN design philosophy.

Hi Pete;

With the understanding as in my response to Charlie in the previous email.
There is no backward compatibility issue with existing HA (RFC2002 &
RFC3012) receiving a RRQ message with ONLY a MN-AAA authentication extension
(see previous email)

There are several places where we need to address the issue of EXACTLY vs.
At least. The following are the proposed texts:

1.	8.2.1. Validity Checks

   Registration Requests with an invalid, non-zero UDP checksum MUST be
   silently discarded by the home agent.

   The authentication in the Registration Request MUST be checked.  This
   involves the following operations:

      a) The home agent MUST check for the presence of at least one
         authorization-enabling extension, and perform only one of the
indicated
         authentication(s).  At least one authorization-enabling extension
         MUST be present in the Registration Request; and the home agent
         MUST either check the Authenticator value in the extension or
         verify that the authenticator value has been checked by another
         agent with which it has a security association.  If no
         authorization-enabling extension is found, or if the
         Authenticator is invalid, the home agent MUST reject the mobile
         node's registration and SHOULD send a Registration Reply to the
         mobile node with Code 131.  The home agent MUST then discard
         the Request and SHOULD log the error as a security exception. 
         If the home agent receives a Registration Request without a
Mobile-Home
         Authentication extension from a Mobile Node that does not have a 
         security association with this home agent, the home agent MAY 
         discard the Mobile Node's Registration Request.


     b) The home agent MUST check that the registration Identification
         field is correct using the context selected by the SPI within
         the authorization-enabling extension that the home agent used to
authenticate the 
         Mobile Node's Registration Request.  See Section 5.7 for a
description of how this is performed.  
         If incorrect, the home agent MUST reject the Request and SHOULD 
         send a Registration Reply to the mobile node with Code 133,
including an
         Identification field computed in accordance with the rules
         specified in Section 5.7.  The home agent MUST do no further
         processing with such a Request, though it SHOULD log the error
         as a security exception.

2.	A minor correction:
	section 3.8.2.3 should read
	"If the Registration Request does not satisfy all of the validity
checks
   	in Section 3.8.2.1,..." 

	NOT 
	"If the Registration Reply does not satisfy all of the validity
checks
   	in Section 3.8.2.1,...

3.	A slight change to your proposed text for section 3.6.1.3 item (e)

	(e) An authorization-enabling extension other than mobile-home
authentication, if present, followed by

	Otherwise, the text will allow the possibility of having two
Mobile-Home Authentication extension in the RRQ.


Thanks for consideration	

Regards;
Ahmad Muhanna

Hi, Charlie,

Ok, understanding the urgency, how about the following text:

Change the first paragraph of Section 3.5.2 to read:

  At least one authorization-enabling extension MUST be present in all
  Registration Requests, and also in all Registration Replies generated
  by the Home Agent.  This requirement is intended to eliminate problems
  [2] which result from the uncontrolled propagation of remote redirects
  in the Internet.  The location of the extension marks the end of the
  authenticated data covered by that extension.

  The Mobile-Home Authentication Extension is always an
  authorization-enabling for registration messages specified in this
  document; future specifications may define additional
  authorization-enabling extensions.

And the first sentence of Section 3.6:

   A mobile node MUST be configured with a netmask and a mobility
   security association for each of its pre-assigned home agents or
   home agents that could be discovered on a home subnet according
   to procedures in Section 3.6.1.2.

Also, I assume that the missing text people have been discussing
covers the subnet-directed broadcast discovery mechanism in 3.6.1.2; I 
can't find it there now.

Also, I think the text in 3.6.1.3 (section header currently missing)
needs to change to:

      a) The IP header, followed by the UDP header, followed by the
         fixed-length portion of the Registration Request, followed by

      b) If present, any non-authentication Extensions expected to be
         used by the home agent (which may or may not also be useful to
         the foreign agent), followed by

      c) A mobile-home authentication extension, if present, followed by

      d) If present, any non-authentication Extensions used only by the
         foreign agent, followed by

      e) An authorization-enabling extension, if present, followed by

      f) The Mobile-Foreign Authentication Extension, if present.

   Note that item (a) and at least one of (c) or (e) MUST appear in
   every Registration Request sent by the mobile node.  Items (b), (d),
   and (f) are optional.  However, item (f) MUST be included when the
   mobile node and the foreign agent share a mobility security
   association.


I think that should do it.

-Pete

hi all,


  i just went through the draft 16. the changes which were mentioned in the differences pdf  "mipv6-modified-parts-pre16.pdf" have not been reflected in the draft.  for example the draft still talks about BU , BAck as destination options and not as MH messages. there are many more such changes which need to be reflected in the new draft.

Hi,

For the NAT Traversal for MIP draft, I am concerned about section
4.5 Foreign Agent Considerations

The last paragraph on page 16 indicates that FA may add the UDP Tunnel
request extension even when FHAE is not present. I am not comfortable
with this statement. It should be added only if FHAE is present or else
it
is a security hole - a third party can append this extension before RRQ
is
fowarded to HA.

On the other hand, I agree that this makes it difficult to scale as it
introduces
the classic key distribution problem.

Was this deliberate or overlooked. Can someone educate me on it.
thx

The motivation for this was to give the MN hits to help it when retransmitting
in the face of packet loss (an issue I didn't get to in the meeting - it's in
the slides).

Basically if the MN doesn't receive a HoT or CoT it needs to retransmit
the HoTI and CoTI, respectively.
And if it doesn't receive a BA (when the BU had the A bit set) it needs
to retransmit the BU.
For these reasons the cookies used to form the authenticator in the BU
might be old. If they are too old the CN will reject it
with an error. But it would see very useful to give the MN a hint
for how long time it can retransmit using the old cookies.

I think a time around 20-30 seconds would be reasonable. THis would allow
several retransmissions with binary exponential backoff.
When this time has expired, or a BA with a "too old home nonce index" or
"too old care-of nonce index" error is received, the MN would need
to start over with the CoTI/HoTI.

An observation is that this also allows the MN to reuse the home cookie
during frequent movement for this time period, which would be a useful
optimization that Charlie and Jari M. suggested.

Also AP will have to tell this information to the Access Router.
This is where a "protocol" for L2 triggers is needed.

Right, but the old AR still needs to know when to stop sending the
packets and flush its neighbor cache.
If the F-BU comes through prior to the MN moving, what's the signal?

Also, there were some other questions raised about bicasting around the
effect on reliable transports that need resolution, we're planning on
looking into experimentally them soon.

How can the host connect to two ARs if there is only one interface? Are
you assuming soft handover, i.e. that the host can also be connected to
two ARs at layer 2? Or are you assuming that the host has a connection
to the new AR through the old AR, like in FMIPv4?

I don't think this has anything to do with mandating a particular API. I
should probably look more closely at the standard, but from talking to
people who know it better, I don't believe the 802.11 standard has the
kind of strict power levels for handoff that other radio protocols have,
such that if the power dips below a certain level, then handoff to
another access point with the highest power level is certain. I believe
it is left up to the implementors to determine this. Anybody who knows
the 802.11 standard better than I, please correct me if I am wrong. I
don't believe this has anything to do with whether the WLAN is
connection oriented or not, it just involves how they define a
standard-conformant implementation w.r.t. handover.

If that's so, then the actual implementation will vary widely and make
it difficult to implement a consistent L2 trigger. Standardizing
something along these lines would help proactive mobile controlled
handoff.

Hello all;

I have the following question about the I bit in the Revocation
Acknowledgement Message as mentioned in section 4.3. in the recent I-D
version 02:

"
I              Inform bit.

               Set to '1' by the foreign agent to ask the home agent
               if the mobile node should be informed of the
               revocation.
"

If the Foreign Agent is sending this message to acknowledge receiving a
Revocation Message what does the above text mean?


Thanks for your consideration and help.

               
Regards;
Ahmad Muhanna

Hi,

The draft states: 

> 14.3. Security for the Binding Updates to the Correspondent Nodes

>    [..]  For this reason, this specification limits
>    the validity of RR authorized bindings to a maximum of five minutes
>    after the last RR check has been performed.


In cdma2000 spectrum is expensive and quite a lot of attention is given to
minimizing control/signaling overhead, not to mention compressing packet
headers. Having to send the RR check messages every five minutes is an issue.
Also, after mobile sends data it stays active some number of seconds (like
20-30) beyond the last bit sent.  The five minute requirement implies that
mobiles using the RR check would be active 5-10% of the time even when they have
nothing to send because they have to wake up every five minutes just to do the
RR check.  That's a problem.

If the CN is a voice gateway or conference bridge that is owned by the same
carrier that owns the HA, and the route between the HA and CN resides within the
carrier, the risk of an attacker being able to monitor the CN-HA route could be
zero for practical purposes.  Another case would be if the mobile runs TLS above
MIPv6. It doesn't seem that frequent RRs buy very much.

Is it really necessary to mandate a five minute lifetime for all applications?  


thanks,
Tom Hiller

Alpesh,

	Let us consider what a man-in-the-middle could accomplish by
adding this extension?

	If he adds this extension, and changes the source address, then 
the HA will use UDP encapsulation, when it otherwise would not. The
UDP encapsulated traffic will go to a wrong destination. This does
not differ in any essential manner from changing the source address
of a registration request without this extension.

	If the source address is not changed, the HA won't use UDP, except
if the extension uses the Force bit. In this case, a reply will come
back with a UDP Tunnelling extension. a)If the FA understands this, it
will do de-tunnelling, and the traffic will flow normally, or it may
have UDP tunnelling disabled, in which case it will not accept the
reg. reply. b) If the FA does not understand this, it will reject the
registration reply because it contains an extension it does not 
understand in the 0 to 127 range.

	So it seems to me that the extent of the attack is to force the
use of UDP tunnelling where it is not needed, or to have the registration
rejected. The latter can be done in easier ways.

	If this is the extent of the attack possible, I don't think
it warrants requireing that this particular extension only be used
with a Foreign-Home Authenticaiton-enabling Extension present. We might
add text to indicate that FA's should only accept registration replies
with UDP Tunnel extensions after the Mobile-Home Auth. Ext. when they 
are behind a NAT (and thus are advertising with the U bit set).

	Have I missed something?

	Best,
		Henrik

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		: Mobility Support in IPv6
	Author(s)	: D. Johnson, C. Perkins
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mobileip-ipv6-16.txt
	Pages		: 146
	Date		: 21-Mar-02
	
This document specifies the operation of mobile computers using IPv6.
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 the mobile node's current
location.  IPv6 packets addressed to a mobile node's home address are
transparently routed to its care-of address.  The protocol enables
IPv6 nodes to cache the binding of a mobile node's home address with
its care-of address, and to then send any packets destined for the
mobile node directly to it at this care-of address.  To support this
operation, Mobile IPv6 defines four new IPv6 destination options,
including one that MUST be supported in packets received by any node,
whether mobile or stationary.

The lifetime of the entry in the BCE is 5 minutes. If the MN does not
have an ongoing session (sending or receiving packets) it does not
have to wake up to update the BCE in the CN. And CNs may simply let a
BCE cache entry expire. CNs are not required to send a binding request
to MNs for which they have a BCE. So the RR check would not be
required. The RR check needs to be done only when you have an active
session. The implication of the 5 minutes is that there would be
additional messaging every 5 minutes in order to maintain RO between
the MN and CN.

Well you have to remember that the RR based RO is for the cases where
you do not have any infrastructure to verify the valdity of a home
address claimed by an MN. In the above example, you would not be
required to do RR at all. You could use an infrastructure based
solution and establish a binding security association with the CN
whose lifetime can be significantly higher.

RO itself is not required in all cases. If you are only doing a DNS
query for example, you do not need to do RR and have RO traffic
between the MN and the DNS server.

   Let us not forget that route optimization is an
   _optimization_. A mobile node can be as
   selective as it likes about which streams it
   cares enough to straighten out triangular
   routing. For an RTP stream, this may be
   a completely reasonable tradeoff as the amount
   of RO signaling vs RTP streams @20ms
   packetization is miniscule. For other streams,
   it may not be worth it at all. Casual web
   browsing, IMO, probably wouldn't want to use
   RO at least until you hit some fairly large
   threshold of bandwidth or RTT.

   Also: you already need to be up to send and
   receive RTCP. Worse, the net is littered with
   stray packets that make the assumption of 
   complete dormancy -- especially while the unit
   is active -- a tough assumption to make. I know
   that isn't

   The problem is that the MN has absolutely no
   way to know for certain. A better option may be
   to use strong authentication (ipsec) in that case. I
   haven't read the current draft, but inital RR
   covered by strong authentication could relax
   the refresh period requirement, IMO.

   ... a brain fart. What I meant to say is that this
   isn't going to be especially popular with the 
   connection oriented crowd, but reality is,
   well, reality; IP isn't connection oriented.

Hi,

	There was one question posed on backward compatibility for the
NAT traversal during the Mobile IP sesssion in Minneapolis. I'd like
to explore the details of that, but I didn't catch the name of the
questioner. Would you be kind enough to send me a mail on or off list?

	Best regards,
		Henrik

Hi folks,

   we received this note from Tony this morning.  We would like to support
alt 2 by
generating a new draft describing the problem and incorporating the pieces
from the deprecated
GNAIE draft into it.  They need this in a hurry, so we'd like to hear in
advance if anyone
has objection to this, otherwise we'll make it a working group item, and
generate a WG last
call on it straightaway.

Subject: Make use of the GNAIE draft in Diameter MIPv4


Hi Phil and Basavaraj,

My name is Tony Johansson and as you may know I'm the new editor of the
Diameter MIPv4 application. In process of solving the last remaining issue,
it has been identified that the protocol is still lacking some major
functionality in some cases of handoffs, since the Diameter MIPv4
application allows you to have more than one AAAH in the same subdomain of a
realm. Please see, issue  #299 and issue #301 at
http://www.drizzle.com/~aboba/AAA/issues.html for a detailed description of
the issues.

During, the AAA working group meeting at IETF53 I presented the issues and
two alternative ways in which we can workout a solution to the open issues -
see below:

Alt1: Clarifications / new requirements without any new dependencies to MIP.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--

AAAH
- Require that each subdomain of a realm is authorized/authenticated by
exactly one AAAH. So while a home network may have multiple AAAH's, each
subdomain will have exactly one AAAH.

- Or, require that, if the home realm has multiple AAA servers to which the
same user can be routed to, then there MUST be a synchronization mechanism
between the AAAH servers. However, the specific synchronization mechanism is
beyond the scope of this spec.

 AAAF
- How to map HA IP address to HA FQDN is still open. Reverse DNS look up is
not at all a straightforward solution for this...


Alt 2: New dependencies to MIP, by requiring the usage of the GNAIE draft.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-

AAAH
- Require that the MN support the GNAIE draft, updated to include the
definition of a AAAH NAI.  When sending a MIP RegReq, this AAAH NAI would be
included to guarantee that a registered user always ends up in the same
initial AAAH.

AAAF
- The mapping of the HA IP address and HA FQDN, Host and realm would be
automatically solved, since this would be included in the MIP RegReq as
well.

There was a very clear and strong consensus that alternative 2 would be by
far the best solution. However, this means more work and dependencies to the
MIP working group and the goal is set to have the Diameter MIPv4 appl. draft
in working group last call by the April 2nd. Looking at the GNAIE draft, I
done see that much work needs to be done to make it fulfill our needs, so to
me it could easily be done in time, but the big question is how quickly
could it be pushed through the MIP working group and go to last call?  I
would really need to get your opinion on this asap., so I know if I'm asking
for the impossible or not :).

Best Regards,

Tony

Hi Phil;

Please correct me if I am wrong.
Tony is asking to use GAINE draft after what he thinks is a minor change.
However, your suggestion is to create a new draft and to incorporate the
pieces from the deprecated GANIE draft into it.

Is there any reason for this?

Regards;
Ahmad Muhanna

Yes, of course!
 
We're incorporating extensions into functional drafts rather than defining
generalized extensions - that's the reason 
GNAIE was deprecated.  Now we have a practical need for the extension, so
the draft will describe what is needed
and how it will be used and the relevant extensions will be incorporate
there.

Hi Phil; 

Please correct me if I am wrong. 
Tony is asking to use GAINE draft after what he thinks is a minor change. 
However, your suggestion is to create a new draft and to incorporate the
pieces from the deprecated GANIE draft into it.

Is there any reason for this? 

Regards; 
Ahmad Muhanna

Hi folks, 

   we received this note from Tony this morning.  We would like to support 
alt 2 by 
generating a new draft describing the problem and incorporating the pieces 
from the deprecated 
GNAIE draft into it.  They need this in a hurry, so we'd like to hear in

has objection to this, otherwise we'll make it a working group item, and 
generate a WG last

Subject: Make use of the GNAIE draft in Diameter MIPv4 


Hi Phil and Basavaraj, 

My name is Tony Johansson and as you may know I'm the new editor of the 
Diameter MIPv4 application. In process of solving the last remaining issue, 
it has been identified that the protocol is still lacking some major 
functionality in some cases of handoffs, since the Diameter MIPv4 
application allows you to have more than one AAAH in the same subdomain of a

realm. Please see, issue  #299 and issue #301 at 
http://www.drizzle.com/~aboba/AAA/issues.html
<http://www.drizzle.com/~aboba/AAA/issues.html>  for a detailed description
of 
the issues. 

During, the AAA working group meeting at IETF53 I presented the issues and 
two alternative ways in which we can workout a solution to the open issues -

see below: 

Alt1: Clarifications / new requirements without any new dependencies to MIP.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- 

AAAH 
- Require that each subdomain of a realm is authorized/authenticated by 
exactly one AAAH. So while a home network may have multiple AAAH's, each 
subdomain will have exactly one AAAH. 

- Or, require that, if the home realm has multiple AAA servers to which the 
same user can be routed to, then there MUST be a synchronization mechanism 
between the AAAH servers. However, the specific synchronization mechanism is

beyond the scope of this spec. 

 AAAF 
- How to map HA IP address to HA FQDN is still open. Reverse DNS look up is 
not at all a straightforward solution for this... 


Alt 2: New dependencies to MIP, by requiring the usage of the GNAIE draft. 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

- 

AAAH 
- Require that the MN support the GNAIE draft, updated to include the 
definition of a AAAH NAI.  When sending a MIP RegReq, this AAAH NAI would be

included to guarantee that a registered user always ends up in the same 
initial AAAH. 

AAAF 
- The mapping of the HA IP address and HA FQDN, Host and realm would be 
automatically solved, since this would be included in the MIP RegReq as 
well. 

There was a very clear and strong consensus that alternative 2 would be by 
far the best solution. However, this means more work and dependencies to the

MIP working group and the goal is set to have the Diameter MIPv4 appl. draft

in working group last call by the April 2nd. Looking at the GNAIE draft, I 
done see that much work needs to be done to make it fulfill our needs, so to

me it could easily be done in time, but the big question is how quickly 
could it be pushed through the MIP working group and go to last call?  I 
would really need to get your opinion on this asap., so I know if I'm asking

for the impossible or not :). 

Best Regards, 

Tony

RE: [mobile-ip] FW: Make use of the GNAIE draft in Diameter MIPv4Hello Phil,

I agree with Tony in that we resurrect the GNAIE draft and add the minor
changes.

There is no need to create another draft, is there?

Haseeb

  Hi Phil;

  Please correct me if I am wrong.
  Tony is asking to use GAINE draft after what he thinks is a minor change.
  However, your suggestion is to create a new draft and to incorporate the
pieces from the deprecated GANIE draft into it.

  Is there any reason for this?

  Hi folks,

     we received this note from Tony this morning.  We would like to support
  alt 2 by
  generating a new draft describing the problem and incorporating the pieces

  Subject: Make use of the GNAIE draft in Diameter MIPv4



  Hi Phil and Basavaraj,

  My name is Tony Johansson and as you may know I'm the new editor of the
  Diameter MIPv4 application. In process of solving the last remaining
issue,
  it has been identified that the protocol is still lacking some major
  functionality in some cases of handoffs, since the Diameter MIPv4
  application allows you to have more than one AAAH in the same subdomain of
a
  realm. Please see, issue  #299 and issue #301 at
  http://www.drizzle.com/~aboba/AAA/issues.html for a detailed description
of
  the issues.

  During, the AAA working group meeting at IETF53 I presented the issues and
  two alternative ways in which we can workout a solution to the open
issues -
  see below:

  Alt1: Clarifications / new requirements without any new dependencies to
MIP.
  --------------------------------------------------------------------------
--
  --

  AAAH
  - Require that each subdomain of a realm is authorized/authenticated by
  exactly one AAAH. So while a home network may have multiple AAAH's, each
  subdomain will have exactly one AAAH.

  - Or, require that, if the home realm has multiple AAA servers to which
the
  same user can be routed to, then there MUST be a synchronization mechanism
  between the AAAH servers. However, the specific synchronization mechanism
is
  beyond the scope of this spec.

   AAAF
  - How to map HA IP address to HA FQDN is still open. Reverse DNS look up
is
  not at all a straightforward solution for this...



  Alt 2: New dependencies to MIP, by requiring the usage of the GNAIE draft.
  --------------------------------------------------------------------------
--
  -

  AAAH
  - Require that the MN support the GNAIE draft, updated to include the
  definition of a AAAH NAI.  When sending a MIP RegReq, this AAAH NAI would
be
  included to guarantee that a registered user always ends up in the same
  initial AAAH.

  AAAF
  - The mapping of the HA IP address and HA FQDN, Host and realm would be
  automatically solved, since this would be included in the MIP RegReq as
  well.

  There was a very clear and strong consensus that alternative 2 would be by
  far the best solution. However, this means more work and dependencies to
the
  MIP working group and the goal is set to have the Diameter MIPv4 appl.
draft
  in working group last call by the April 2nd. Looking at the GNAIE draft, I
  done see that much work needs to be done to make it fulfill our needs, so
to
  me it could easily be done in time, but the big question is how quickly
  could it be pushed through the MIP working group and go to last call?  I
  would really need to get your opinion on this asap., so I know if I'm
asking
  for the impossible or not :).

  Best Regards,

  Tony

Yes, of course!
 
We're incorporating extensions into functional drafts rather than defining
generalized extensions - that's the reason 
GNAIE was deprecated.  Now we have a practical need for the extension, so
the draft will describe what is needed
and how it will be used and the relevant extensions will be incorporate
there.

Hi Phil and Basavaraj, 

My name is Tony Johansson and as you may know I'm the new editor of the 
Diameter MIPv4 application. In process of solving the last remaining issue, 
it has been identified that the protocol is still lacking some major 
functionality in some cases of handoffs, since the Diameter MIPv4 
application allows you to have more than one AAAH in the same subdomain of a

realm. Please see, issue  #299 and issue #301 at 
http://www.drizzle.com/~aboba/AAA/issues.html
<http://www.drizzle.com/~aboba/AAA/issues.html>  for a detailed description
of 
the issues. 

During, the AAA working group meeting at IETF53 I presented the issues and 
two alternative ways in which we can workout a solution to the open issues -

see below: 

Alt1: Clarifications / new requirements without any new dependencies to MIP.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- 

AAAH 
- Require that each subdomain of a realm is authorized/authenticated by 
exactly one AAAH. So while a home network may have multiple AAAH's, each 
subdomain will have exactly one AAAH. 

- Or, require that, if the home realm has multiple AAA servers to which the 
same user can be routed to, then there MUST be a synchronization mechanism 
between the AAAH servers. However, the specific synchronization mechanism is

beyond the scope of this spec. 

 AAAF 
- How to map HA IP address to HA FQDN is still open. Reverse DNS look up is 
not at all a straightforward solution for this... 


Alt 2: New dependencies to MIP, by requiring the usage of the GNAIE draft. 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

- 

AAAH 
- Require that the MN support the GNAIE draft, updated to include the 
definition of a AAAH NAI.  When sending a MIP RegReq, this AAAH NAI would be

included to guarantee that a registered user always ends up in the same 
initial AAAH. 

AAAF 
- The mapping of the HA IP address and HA FQDN, Host and realm would be 
automatically solved, since this would be included in the MIP RegReq as 
well. 

There was a very clear and strong consensus that alternative 2 would be by 
far the best solution. However, this means more work and dependencies to the

MIP working group and the goal is set to have the Diameter MIPv4 appl. draft

in working group last call by the April 2nd. Looking at the GNAIE draft, I 
done see that much work needs to be done to make it fulfill our needs, so to

me it could easily be done in time, but the big question is how quickly 
could it be pushed through the MIP working group and go to last call?  I 
would really need to get your opinion on this asap., so I know if I'm asking

for the impossible or not :).

Tony

Phil,
 
Since their is enough need for the GNAI draft, we should add the minor
changes and return this draft back as a working group item.

Hi Phil; 

Please correct me if I am wrong. 
Tony is asking to use GAINE draft after what he thinks is a minor change. 
However, your suggestion is to create a new draft and to incorporate the
pieces from the deprecated GANIE draft into it.

Is there any reason for this?

Hi Phil and Basavaraj, 

My name is Tony Johansson and as you may know I'm the new editor of the 
Diameter MIPv4 application. In process of solving the last remaining issue, 
it has been identified that the protocol is still lacking some major 
functionality in some cases of handoffs, since the Diameter MIPv4 
application allows you to have more than one AAAH in the same subdomain of a

realm. Please see, issue  #299 and issue #301 at 
http://www.drizzle.com/~aboba/AAA/issues.html
<http://www.drizzle.com/~aboba/AAA/issues.html>  for a detailed description
of 
the issues. 

During, the AAA working group meeting at IETF53 I presented the issues and 
two alternative ways in which we can workout a solution to the open issues -

see below: 

Alt1: Clarifications / new requirements without any new dependencies to MIP.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- 

AAAH 
- Require that each subdomain of a realm is authorized/authenticated by 
exactly one AAAH. So while a home network may have multiple AAAH's, each 
subdomain will have exactly one AAAH. 

- Or, require that, if the home realm has multiple AAA servers to which the 
same user can be routed to, then there MUST be a synchronization mechanism 
between the AAAH servers. However, the specific synchronization mechanism is

beyond the scope of this spec. 

 AAAF 
- How to map HA IP address to HA FQDN is still open. Reverse DNS look up is 
not at all a straightforward solution for this... 


Alt 2: New dependencies to MIP, by requiring the usage of the GNAIE draft. 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

- 

AAAH 
- Require that the MN support the GNAIE draft, updated to include the 
definition of a AAAH NAI.  When sending a MIP RegReq, this AAAH NAI would be

included to guarantee that a registered user always ends up in the same 
initial AAAH. 

AAAF 
- The mapping of the HA IP address and HA FQDN, Host and realm would be 
automatically solved, since this would be included in the MIP RegReq as 
well. 

There was a very clear and strong consensus that alternative 2 would be by 
far the best solution. However, this means more work and dependencies to the

MIP working group and the goal is set to have the Diameter MIPv4 appl. draft

in working group last call by the April 2nd. Looking at the GNAIE draft, I 
done see that much work needs to be done to make it fulfill our needs, so to

me it could easily be done in time, but the big question is how quickly 
could it be pushed through the MIP working group and go to last call?  I 
would really need to get your opinion on this asap., so I know if I'm asking

for the impossible or not :). 

Best Regards, 

Tony

    <P><FONT size=2>Hi Phil and Basavaraj,</FONT> </P>
    <P><FONT size=2>My name is Tony Johansson and as you may know I'm the new 
    editor of the</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>Diameter MIPv4 application. In process 
    of solving the last remaining issue,</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>it has been 
    identified that the protocol is still lacking some major</FONT> <BR><FONT 
    size=2>functionality in some cases of handoffs, since the Diameter 
    MIPv4</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>application allows you to have more than one 
    AAAH in the same subdomain of a</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>realm. Please see, 
    issue&nbsp; #299 and issue #301 at</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2><A 
    href="http://www.drizzle.com/~aboba/AAA/issues.html" 
    target=_blank>http://www.drizzle.com/~aboba/AAA/issues.html</A> for a 
    detailed description of</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>the issues.</FONT> </P>
    <P><FONT size=2>During, the AAA working group meeting at IETF53 I presented 
    the issues and</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>two alternative ways in which we can 
    workout a solution to the open issues -</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>see 
    below:</FONT> </P>
    <P><FONT size=2>Alt1: Clarifications / new requirements without any new 
    dependencies to MIP.</FONT> <BR><FONT 
    size=2>----------------------------------------------------------------------------</FONT> 
    <BR><FONT size=2>--</FONT> </P>
    <P><FONT size=2>AAAH</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>- Require that each subdomain 
    of a realm is authorized/authenticated by</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>exactly 
    one AAAH. So while a home network may have multiple AAAH's, each</FONT> 
    <BR><FONT size=2>subdomain will have exactly one AAAH.</FONT> </P>
    <P><FONT size=2>- Or, require that, if the home realm has multiple AAA 
    servers to which the</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>same user can be routed to, 
    then there MUST be a synchronization mechanism</FONT> <BR><FONT 
    size=2>between the AAAH servers. However, the specific synchronization 
    mechanism is</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>beyond the scope of this spec.</FONT> 
    </P>
    <P><FONT size=2>&nbsp;AAAF</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>- How to map HA IP 
    address to HA FQDN is still open. Reverse DNS look up is</FONT> <BR><FONT 
    size=2>not at all a straightforward solution for this...</FONT> </P><BR>
    <P><FONT size=2>Alt 2: New dependencies to MIP, by requiring the usage of 
    the GNAIE draft.</FONT> <BR><FONT 
    size=2>----------------------------------------------------------------------------</FONT> 
    <BR><FONT size=2>-</FONT> </P>
    <P><FONT size=2>AAAH</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>- Require that the MN support 
    the GNAIE draft, updated to include the</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>definition 
    of a AAAH NAI.&nbsp; When sending a MIP RegReq, this AAAH NAI would 
    be</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>included to guarantee that a registered user 
    always ends up in the same</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>initial AAAH.</FONT> </P>
    <P><FONT size=2>AAAF</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>- The mapping of the HA IP 
    address and HA FQDN, Host and realm would be</FONT> <BR><FONT 
    size=2>automatically solved, since this would be included in the MIP RegReq 
    as</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>well.</FONT> </P>
    <P><FONT size=2>There was a very clear and strong consensus that alternative 
    2 would be by</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>far the best solution. However, this 
    means more work and dependencies to the</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>MIP working 
    group and the goal is set to have the Diameter MIPv4 appl. draft</FONT> 
    <BR><FONT size=2>in working group last call by the April 2nd. Looking at the 
    GNAIE draft, I</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>done see that much work needs to be 
    done to make it fulfill our needs, so to</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>me it could 
    easily be done in time, but the big question is how quickly</FONT> <BR><FONT 
    size=2>could it be pushed through the MIP working group and go to last 
    call?&nbsp; I</FONT> <BR><FONT size=2>would really need to get your opinion

Hi, Ahmad,

I agree with most of your proposed text, but one comment below:

Do we really need this last sentence above?  I think you are trying to 
account for HAs that don't know about any authorization enabling 
extensions other than MN-HA Authentication extension.  Won't the RRQs
be silently discarded in this case, simply due to normal processing
for unrecognized criticial extensions?

Yes, I agree.  I had considered similar wording myself, but discarded
it in favor of a simpler specification - perhaps it would be OK to
allow this behavior, nothing is really broken.  But I can agree with
your wording above.

I'd like to add one more clarification regarding the CN behavior in this case -
Section 8.5,
Sending Binding Acknowledgements, second paragraph says: "Furthermore, if the packet
is to be sent to the mobile node at any address other than the mobile node's home
address,
it MUST be sent using a Routing header (even if the binding was rejected)."

This obviously means the CN shouldn't use a Routing Header when the MN
moves back home and deletes the binding, but I think that subtlety was missed
by a few implementations because it's not in the bulleted list of items on how
to construct the BAck.

> Ahmad,

    There's two things that can be going on with the revocation request, and
revocation acknowledge message, and I suppose the above text may need a bit of
clarification in the scenario you're asking about (the answer to your question
is the last half of this explanation).

    In the spirit of the draft (what I was intending to convey):

    If the FA is sending the revocation message, setting the 'I' bit to 1
means it is asking the HA to set the 'I' bit to '1' if it wants the MN to be
informed of the revocation, and to set the 'I' bit ot '0' if it does NOT want
the MN to be informed.

    If the HA sent the revocation request, and sets the 'I' bit to '1' it is
requesting the FA inform the MN.  If the FA does inform the MN, in the
revocation acknowledgement the FA will set the 'I' bit to 1 (so the second
part here is the specific answer to your question), and if the FA does NOT
inform the MN, it sets the 'I' bit to 0.

    Another way to phrase that text would be:

    In the case of the FA revocing the registration, the 'I' bit is set to 1
to request the home agent instruct the FA to whether the MN should be informed
of the revocation.

    Since this functionality is really up to the FA, it 'advertises' it MAY
leave the decision to the HA in the registration phase, that is based on the
'I' bit's setting in the revocation extension.  The key is how this corelates
to what the FA is doing in the revocation request.  Here are all the possibles
(presuming both sides have implied they understand the 'I' bit int the
registration phase):

    H-1. HA revoking registration, requests the MN be informed.  In this case
the HA sends a revocation message to the FA with the 'I' bit set to 1.  If the
FA informs the MN of it's revocation it SHOULD set the 'I' bit to 1 in the
revocation acknowledgement (this is the specific case you asked about).  If
the FA does NOT inform the MN of the revocation, it SHOULD set the 'I' bit to
0.

    H-2. HA revoking registration, requests the MN NOT be informed.  In this
case the HA sends a revocation messasge to the FA with the 'I' bit set to 0. 
If the FA does NOT inform the MN, it SHOULD reply with the 'I' bit set to 0. 
If the FA does inform the MN of the revocation, it SHOULD set the 'I' bit to 1
(these responses by the FA are exactly as above).

    F-1.  FA revoking registration, wants the HA to respond to whether the MN
should be informed, so it sets the 'I' bit to 1.  If the HA wants the MN to be
informed of the revocation, in the revocation acknowledgement, it sets the 'I'
bit to 1, and if it does NOT want the MN informed, it sets the 'I' bit to 0.

    F-2.  FA revoking registration, doesn't care what the HA wants.  In this
case, where the policy in the foreign realm is not request what the HA wants,
the FA SHOULD not imply the choice will be up to the HA in the registration
phase, that is the 'I' bit should be set to 0 in the revocation extension.  In
this way, if the HA recieves a revocation request with the 'I' bit set to 1,
it can infer the MN was informed of the revocation, and that's just the policy
in the foreign realm.  If the policy in the foreign realm is to always NOT
inform the MN of the revocation, the FA conveys this by setting the 'I' bit to
1 in the registration phase (the revocation extension), then setting the 'I'
bit to 0 in the revocation request (implying it has NOT informed the MN).

     I know it seems a bit complex, but (I think) all the functionality is
there, and only uses essentially 2 bits, or 1 bit in each phase.  Does this
make sense? The other solution would be to go to a 'what the agents wants to
be done in the event of a revocation' at the time of registration, but the
nature of policy means that decision should be made at the time of revocation
because the decision on whether to inform the MN is likely to be effected by
why the revocation is happenning, which is why I propose this model. 
Thoughts?  There may be a way to make this cleaner/clearer.

                              Cheers,
                                  Steve

Hi, Pete,
Please see my one comment inline. 

Also, please let me know what you think of the following part of the
proposed text:

"
        a) The home agent MUST check for the presence of at least one
           authorization-enabling extension, and perform only one of the
indicated
          authentication(s).  At least one authorization-enabling extension
          MUST be present in the Registration Request;...............
"
I proposed  ".., and perform only one of the indicated
authentication(s)....."
OVER "...., and perform at least one the indicated authentication(s)
......."
for the following reason:

In point (b) in the same section:
"
      b) The home agent MUST check that the registration Identification
          field is correct using the context selected by the SPI within
          the authorization-enabling extension that the home agent used to
          authenticate the Mobile Node's Registration Request. ....
"
The standard says that the home agent MUST check that the registration
Identification 
according to the context selected by the SPI within the
authorization-enabling extension.

Therefore, it makes more sense to define ONLY one authentication to be done
and 
use the SPI of that authorization extension to reference the context which
specifies 
the registration identification.

I hope that you did not miss this part and you still agree with it.

Regards;
Ahmad Muhanna

Hi, Ahmad,

I agree with most of your proposed text, but one comment below:

Do we really need this last sentence above?  I think you are trying to 
account for HAs that don't know about any authorization enabling 
extensions other than MN-HA Authentication extension.  Won't the RRQs
be silently discarded in this case, simply due to normal processing
for unrecognized criticial extensions?

Ahmad Muhanna:
Well, according to RFC3012, forwarding MN-AAA authentication extension 
was forbidden in one case ONLY. If the FA did not perform authentication or
in other words, 
before performing authentication using MN-AAA. The wording of the text in
section 3.2 of RFC3012 
left it optional to forward that extension.

I believe, what I am trying to account for is existing HAs which recognize
the MN-HA 
and the MN-AAA authentication extension BUT it performs only the MN-HA
authentication 
according to RFC2002 (RFC3220).

I feel it is important to leave this text to provide 100% backward
compatibility and at 
the same time it does not affect or contradict with what RFC3220 is
proposing anyway.

Yes, I agree.  I had considered similar wording myself, but discarded
it in favor of a simpler specification - perhaps it would be OK to
allow this behavior, nothing is really broken.  But I can agree with
your wording above.

Hi,

Here are my initial comments on mipv6 draft 16 changes, I will do
a more thorough reading later...

-Brian


------------------------------------------------------------------------

4.5.4 Securing Binding Updates to Home Agents
> Both the mobile node and the home agent MUST use non-volatile memory
> to store the sequence number so that a reboot does not prevent the
> acceptance of new Binding Updates.

Why is this a MUST and not a SHOULD (or MAY)?  A reboot of the Home
Agent
will not prevent it from accepting a Binding Update from a Mobile Node
with
*any* sequence number, and we already have an error code (141 - Sequence
number
out of window) to re-synchronize the sequence number, since the
last-used
number is sent in the BAck.

This section also incorrectly assumes a sequence number is 32-bits, but
it's
only 16.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

5.1.4 Care-of Test Init (CoTI) Message
> If no actual parameters are present in this message, no padding is
necessary.

This isn't correct, there are 4 bytes of padding necessary.  BTW, the
HoTI
Message section has this right.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

5.1.7 Binding Update (BU) Message
> If no actual parameters are present in this message, 4 bytes of Pad1
or
> PadN parameters are needed to make the length of the message a
multiple
> of 8.

I don't believe any padding is necessary.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

5.1.8 Binding Acknowledgement (BA) Message
> Lifetime section
> Correspondent nodes SHOULD also retain a BCE entry for the purposes of

> accepting Home Address Options somewhat longer than they keep on using

> the entry for Route Optimization of outgoing packets. This helps to
> avoid dropped packets, particularly when clock drift can be a problem.

This can be problematic, and is in disagreement with Section 8.3 - "Any
Binding Cache entry MUST be deleted after the expiration of this
lifetime
in the Binding Cache entry."  I would propose:

 "Mobile Nodes SHOULD send a new Binding Update before the expiration of
this
  period in order to extend the lifetime and not cause a disruption in
  communications".

And regarding the Refresh field, I'm the one that proposed removing this
field,
since the onus should be on the Mobile Node to choose an adequate amount
of
time before the lifetime expires, account for RTTs, etc., to refresh the

binding.  Charlie asked if it could be moved into a sub-option if
removed,
and that is fine with me - I guess it could be a way for a CN to
implement
an LRU cache replacement policy.

Same section:
> The Binding Acknowledgement is sent to the source address of the
> Binding Update message, regardless of whether the Binding Update
> succeeded or failed.  No Routing Headers are inserted to the message.

This looks wrong, the BAck should be sent to the home address via the
care-of
address with a Routing Header, which accomodates use of the Alternate
COA
option.  This is a change from draft 15.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

General comment about Section 5.1.* - it would be nice if every Message
description section included the length (or minimum length) requirement
for the Mobility Header "Header Len" field, this way it's obvious to
implementors.  For example in Section 5.1.7:

"The Header Length field in the Mobility Header for the Binding Update
 message MUST be set to 32 plus the total length of all parameters
present."

------------------------------------------------------------------------

5.3 Home Address Option
> A packet MUST NOT contain more than one Home Address option, except
that an
> encapsulated packet [?] MAY contain a separate Home Address option
associated
> with each encapsulating IP header.

Ok, I'll go down this path again - it was found at Connectathon 2001
(yes, 2001)
that "conformance" tests that sent a packet with two back-to-back HAOs
caused
some vendors to send an ICMPv6 Parameter Problem message, and others to
accept
it, over-writing the old HAO with the new.  Now that we must lookup a
BCE to
accept the HAO, it seems prudent that we should reject this case.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

10.3 Receiving Packets While Away from Home

This section mentions "Routing header", but should be specific that it's

a type 2 Routing header that's to be used for CN->MN RO communications.

Hi,

I submitted draft-yokote-mobileip-api-00.txt,
But I didn't see the announcement on the mobile IP mailing list.
Could you please announce this draft?
And I look forward to get comments on this.

Thank you.

    There have been a few rather large posts to the list recently (as large as
211K), so I wanted to remind people that there's [currently] a 40K (40000B)
limit on posts; anything more is bounced.

    Thoughts:

    Text is cheap, proprietary doc format are usually not.
         -even those dual-mode txt/html emailers are more pricey than you
think.

    Just because you think you're pasting in text doesn't mean you are.
        Some 'widely deployed' editors have non-printable characters mixed in.

    Don't include the *entire* message if you're just replying to a piece.
        Especially if you see text that looks like it came from the above!

    If, for some reason all of what you're sending *needs* to go to the list,
e.g. this *needs* to be in the archive in it's raw form, not just a pointer,
let me know (preferably before you send it).

                              Cheers,
                                  your friendly, but strict, list admin

      Sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE  http://www.acm.org/sigmobile/


MobiHoc 2002 is the third of a series of annual meetings sponsored by
ACM SIGMOBILE, focusing on the latest research in the rapidly growing
area of mobile ad hoc networking and computing.  The first MobiHoc was
held in 2000 in Boston, Massachusetts, as a workshop affiliated with the
MobiCom conference also sponsored by SIGMOBILE.  Since then, MobiHoc has
become a separate symposium, held in 2001 in Long Beach, California, and
now in 2002 in Lausanne, Switzerland.  Topics of interest include all
areas of mobile and wireless ad hoc networking (above the physical
layer), ad hoc computing, and sensor networks.

PAPERS:

There will be approximately seven technical paper sessions on a wide
range of ad hoc networking topics.  The list of accepted papers can be
found at http://www.acm.org/sigmobile/mobihoc/2002/program.html. Paper
topics include routing, sensor networks, scalability, multicast,
energy consumption, TCP, and priority scheduling.


POSTERS:

There will also be a poster session, describing innovative and recent
research on ad hoc networks.


TUTORIALS:

This year there is a new component to MobiHoc: technical tutorials.
On June 9th there will be two tutorials.  "Design and Modeling of
Medium Access Control Protocols for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks" will be
held in the morning, and "Routing & Multicasting in Ad hoc Networks"
will be held in the afternoon.


HOTEL and REGISTRATION:

Hotel information is currently available on-line, and the symposium
is open for registration.  Register by April 22, 2002 to get the
early registration rates.


IMPORTANT DATES:

Early Registration Deadline:            April 22, 2002
Tutorials:                              June 9, 2002
Conference:                             June 10-11, 2002

Hi,
I was just looking at the draft 16. As I understood from it, MH will be a seperate protocol runing over IPv6 like ICMPv6. But in that case, what about piggybacking, specially since piggybacking is mentioned as future work... I did not understand the association.

Please correct me if I have incorrectly interprated the draft...

regards,
Raj

Steve,

Is there a reason not to inform the MN?

Isn't it better to always inform the MN and let MN decide what to do
with the information?

Not sure if this has already been addressed, so not including WG alias.

hello all,


  When a HA receives a BU with 'D' bitset and 'S' bit not set, then does HA have to perform DAD for each and every possible home address of MN(i.e . link local and global addresses using all the advertised prefixes) or doing it for link local will be sufficient?

=> Actually, we've addressed this in the bicasting 
draft. It doesn't need to do anything except
let the BU cache entry time out. There should 
be enough time so that all new traffic will be
directed to the nAR. 2-3 seconds is all you 
need.

In fact I saw a paper that proved the opposite
(and neither me or Karim had anything to do 
with it :) ).
Also the Eifel algorithm can solve any potential
problems.

=> Some link layers _can_ allow for make before
break handovers.

Right, that's what I said. We are going to attempt to either provide
some proof or refute the concern.

Thanks Brian for your comments! Some answer below:

The nv memory allows for protection against replays. If there's
no nv memory, we'll have to provide a resynch procedure, which could
be used by attackers in a replay too.

But I'm not sure either whether this should be a MUST. Perhaps a SHOULD
would be sufficient?

Thanks for pointing this out. But isn't it the other way around? HoTI
and CoTI are 2 bytes, MH has a fixed overhead of 6, total is 8 => ok?

This too.

Sounds good.

I understand your issue, but the change was done in an effort to make
MIPv6 reflection-proof by eliminating all messages that are replied to
another address than they were sent from.

By the way, the use of Alt-CoA is still an open issue. But perhaps you
could help me in understanding it. If Alt-CoA is used from a new CoA
to refer to the old-CoA, this kind of use seems fine. However, if it
is used from the old CoA to refer to some activity that should be done
towards a new, yet untested CoA then there may bombing attack concerns.
Which kind of use is the Alt-CoA designed for?

Hmm... is the problem in using multiple HAOs in the same packet, or
multiple HAOs at different layers in a tunneled packet? What if an
MN and a CN would be running an IP-in-IP tunnel for some reason, and
then someone sends a packet with a HAO to this tunnel? Shouldn't it
work?

Right.

Ok, I understand the reason now, it's because we could be using
manually-configured
IPsec keys.  But  later on in that section it says you don't have to update the
nv
memory every time you get a BU, which itself could lead to a replay attack if
the HA crashes.  I'm fine with a SHOULD.

Yes, you're right.  I knew I was going to screw-up one of these...

I believe it was the latter, where you are moving to a new location, but I'm
not exactly sure of Charlie's intention.

Using multiple HAOs without an intervening tunnel is the problem, i.e. both
in the same Destination Option.

There was something in draft 15 to handle the case when the 
MN reboots. If the MN sends a BU with a sequence number smaller
than the one it had sent before the reboot, the HA rejects the
BU and sends a BAck with error status 141 (sequence number too 
small). In addition to this, the HA includes the sequence number 
from its binding cache in the BAck. For the next BU, the MN 
chooses a sequence number greater than the sequence number in 
the returned BAck.

When the HA reboots and comes up, it accepts whatever sequence
number the MN sends.

We have tested this.

Below is a pointer to a 3GPP2/TSG-P document=20
recording the IPv6 Mobility Discussion at the=20
recent TSG-P meeting in Kobe, Japan on March 11.

Pete McCann, Tom Hillar and Paul Francis put
together this 3GPP2 TSGP document.


Pointer is:

ftp://ftp.3gpp2.org/TSGP/Working/2002/20020311-Kobe/
The file name is:
P00-20020311-006 luc IPv6 mobility.doc

Discussion regarding MIPv6, requirements, WLAN, DIAMETER,

=> This *is* why you need the API. L2 can simply 
send a trigger saying a handover is about 
to take place. No need to transfer power levels. 
The trigger will be sent based on the implementors'
assumptions of when the handover should take place.

Hesham,
I think even in case of Mobile initiated trigger, 
providing L2 trigger information (Link UP and Link Down) 
at AR will definitely make the handover better. Probably 
this is what Alper is referring to. I think this should 
be doable by extending the existing IAPP protocol or defining
a new protocol. Am I missing anything ?
regards,
ajoy

=> But I didn't think 802.11 allowed the AP to
know whether a MN has 'left' its coverage area.
So I always assume that link up or down
is only relevant to the MN itself. 
I see no reason to send this info to the AR. 
I get the feeling we're talking about different
things :) are we?

-> If I remember correctly, new AP does send IAPP(?) message

we extend IAPP to inform AR about the Mobile node's

=> Does it matter? I mean if the COTI is always 
done on the intended CoA then wouldn't it always 
work? So if a BU is sent with an Alt-CoA then 
the COTI is done on the Alt-CoA. 

As for the use, well a multihomed MN may choose 
(for whatever reason) to send a BU from one interface
to forward traffic to another interface. 
I can't think of a good case right now (apart from
HMIPv6 :) ).

BTW, I haven't been keeping up with
email so sorry if this was already discussed. 

Glenn Morrow brought up the issue (ipv6 list) of reverse 
tunnelling to the HA when the HoA is a Site-local
address. He suggested that tunnel must be authenticated.
I don't remember if this was in the draft already, but
I think it has to be added. The draft (15) said that 
the HA SHOULD tunnel Site-local (unicast and mcast)
packets to the CoA, so we can expect reverse tunnelling
to take place if the MN was communicating to another
node within the home site.

=> But this works within the same subnet. 
We're dealing with inter-subnet handovers. 
Of course one could argue that it can be used 
across subnets, but I'm not sure I agree with
that.

Hi Henrik,

It was me. I had a doubt in backward compatibility for the
draft. The scenario I am considering is similar to first
item in section 4.6.1. Consider HA doesn't support NAT draft and 
skips the UDP Tunnel Request Extension with U bit set. HA will 
accept the registration assuming authentication etc. is good. 
So there is ambiguity in following places which I think should
be addressed in the draft.

(1) Per Sec 3.1.1: Since HA accepted the RRQ, MN is expecting UDP 
    Reply extension, but the HA never sent one. MN's behavior should 
    be made clear in this case. HA will not send failed RRQ with 
    code 129.

(2) If MN is not behind a NAT, HA will set proper tunnel and Mobile 
    IP will work. Hence MN should work in this case also. 

(3) Sec. 3.2 - Description of F flag: Will this flag be set only
    when U bit was set and NAT was not detected? How about NAT was
    detected and U bit was set? This flag will not be set in this
    case? In other words, is this flag set in response to U bit 
    in RRQ, irrespective of NAT detection?


Thanks,
Milind

Or if the binding cache entry is removed/expired, a replayed binding
update
will be accepted (assuming nonces are still valid). I am not sure
how bad is this. But requiring the implementors to store it in NV might
be a overkill because you have to store one per MN plus the home
address and how do you know when to ever remove them from NV ?

Ah, if this is done then it does indeed work.

(But see also below.)

So, in the multihomed case you'd still have to send
the COT/COTI from the real interface, even if the BU
could be sent from elsewhere. Ok for everybody?

Ajoy,

You are right, it doesn't

What we would like to do is modify the 802.11 standard, perhaps via
IAPP, so that this information is made available to the AR.

James,
I like the idea of extending IAPP to provide 
L2 trigger to oAR and nAR.

To all -

This is a contribution from Lucent and Tahoe in 3GPP2, and does not represent
consensus in 3GPP2.  There may be a need in cdma2000 carriers to integrate MIPv6
with network access control mechanisms.  In the contribution we are analyzing
different solutions to meet these requirements.  3GPP2 has not yet come to any
conclusions about which particular set of IETF drafts are needed, or which
solutions 3GPP2 will pursue.  

Thanks, 
Tom

THIS "UNAPPROVED" CONTRIBUTION CERTAINLY DOES NOT REPRESENT ANY CONSENSUS IN 3GPP2!  In fact the very first sentence: "There are two solutions, MIPv6 and IPv6 over MIPv4, under consideration for IPv6 mobility" - is FALSE, and does not represent the
consensus of the working group.  Although 3GPP2 does have requirements to support mobility for IPv6, there has been no decision made on an approach, or even which of the possible approaches (beyond MIPv6) to pursue.  

3GPP2 (Third Generation Partnership Project 2) is a collaborative third generation (3G) telecommunications standards-setting project that is driven by the contributions of its corporate members. Statements/thoughts/ideas expressed in "UNACCEPTED" contributions have no basis.  

I believe that propagating this contribution (submitted into 3GPP2) into the IETF attempts to derail the acceptance of the IETF Mobile IP Working Group's MIPv6 in favor of an alternative work around (possibly IPR encumbered).

To all -

This is a contribution from Lucent and Tahoe in 3GPP2, and does not represent
consensus in 3GPP2.  There may be a need in cdma2000 carriers to integrate MIPv6
with network access control mechanisms.  In the contribution we are analyzing
different solutions to meet these requirements.  3GPP2 has not yet come to any
conclusions about which particular set of IETF drafts are needed, or which
solutions 3GPP2 will pursue.  

Thanks, 
Tom

I agree. Alt-COA should correspond with COTI COA.
May be we should clarify that in the draft, if not
done yet.

IMHO, HMIPV6 example seems more real when src-addr of
BU is not same as the COA (alt-COA) addr. In that case,
the above COTI rule applies.
The other example of multihomed hosts seem to be implementation
specific. A implementation may choose to set a particular source
address corresponding to it's transmitting interface. 
But the COT message is always sent to the COA of the MN, so the
receiving physical interface must have the COA or it could be
one of the interfaces of a multihomed MN. Is that what you mean ?

I agree with Ernie that IPv6 mobility is a new feature planned for the next 
release of the 3GPP2 wireless IP network standard. The IPv6 over MIPv4 has 
been proposed as an interim solution and has not been carefully reviewed 
even within the TSG-P working group. The group will continue to evaluate 
the technical merits of this proposal along with other alternatives (eg 
MIPv6 solution) during the next round of standards development process. 
Obviously, 3GPP2 member companies are obliged to follow the general 
guidelines for cooperation between 3GPP2 and IETF as outlined in RFC 3131. 
According to these guidelines any duplication of work (eg re-inventing 
protocols/extensions similar to those already been worked out in IETF) 
should be avoided.

Having said that, I don't think posting any unapproved 3GPP2 contributions 
on IETF mailing lists would serve any purpose.

Even when this is a mobile-initiated/controlled
handover, the access point might know the
mobile is gone (through disassociation, etc.).

Passing this piece of information to the access
router is useful in many aspects. One is, as
mentioned in the FMIPv6 draft, this can be used
as a signal to oldAR to start forwarding traffic
through tunnel to newCoA. We can think
of this as "delayed binding update". F-BU
doesn't change the forwarding immediately.
oldAR waits until it receives a positive confirmation
that MN is gone (when this feature is available).
(and so that you don't need to bi-cast ;)

Tom, I can not agree with your following statement:

         "3GPP2 has not yet come to any conclusions about which particular 
set of IETF
         drafts are needed, or which solutions 3GPP2 will pursue. "

As a principle 3GPP2 has agreed to use IETF-based protocols (to the extent 
possible)
for developing wireless IP network standards. Support for IPv6 mobility is 
no exception!
Of course, we can always propose 3GPP2 specific extensions to any existing 
protocols
if necessary. Currently, I am unaware of any such extensions/enhancements 
needed to
support IPv6 mobility in 3GPP2 carriers networks.

=> Here we go again :). So do we need to go around
fixing every link layer to get FMIPv6 to work
over all L2s? 
I think it is much cleaner to have a generic L3
solution that works.

=> Yeah, at what cost! I mean you want to 
change IEEE 802.11, or alternatively design
a new protocol to transfer non-existent L2
information between the AP and the AR, why?
to avoid bicasting!
What can I say, if you succeed in doing all
this then you've earnt it :)

=> Agreed. The screnario that you mention where 
there could be problems (forwarding to an address
that the MN is not in yet) is more relevant
to the Fast Handoffs draft, which is why I think
there needs to be some serious security work
for that draft.

Mobile IPv6 describes how a Mobile Node can change its point of 
attachment from one AR to another, a process referred to as handover. 
During this process, there is a time period during which the Mobile 
Node is unable to send or receive IPv6 packets. This time period is 
referred to as handover latency.

All,

Just not to confuse people this is not really new. This was edited long
before the last IETF meeting but somehow failed to appear in the directory
so Gopal resubmitted.

I hope the working group is still interested for a couple of non-security
comments on this draft.

I am reading this after long time and a lot of things are still not clear to
me but I thought the following points may be useful.

1. Reverse Tunneling
In section 9.5. "Handling Reverse Tunneled Packets from a Mobile Node"
There is a statement:

"  A home agent MUST support decapsulating reverse tunneled packets
   sent to it from a mobile node's home address.  "

...which I think it is absolutely correct although the justification that
follows is not as strong as I think the requirement is...but anyway, this is
not important. What is important is that section 7.2. "Requirements for IPv6
Home Agents" does not include the above....I think that if this is a MUST
then it should be listed in 7.2.


2. Triangular routing 
Just checking but is this still possible? It seems that it is if the MN does
not send a BU to the CN. i.e.: there is nothing in the spec that says that
the MN MUST send a BU, is it?

Regards
George

=> No more triangular routing. You must do RO
or reverse tunnel.

Just a question, are you guys aware that
this trigger happens _after_ the handover?

I can't see how this helps fast handoffs.

There is a general problem with reverse tunneling and packet loss, which
applies to MIPv4 and I think MIPv6 also. Draft-oneill-mip-revtun-ho-00.txt
exposed the problem that we faced while trying to implement reverse
tunneling in MIPv4.

It boils down to the fact that there is no "smooth" handoff equivalent when
the MN operates in reverse tunneling mode. The above draft talks about how
packets can be lost during handoff and lists a number of different ways of
solving the problem from simple configuration changes in the HA, to possible
extensions to Mobile IP signaling.

As I said, the above work has been done in the context of MIPv4 but similar
issues may apply to MIPv6, I am still trying to determine this...

Is the WG interested in working on this issue? Has anyone else faced or
thought of similar problems with packet loss in reverse tunneling?

I would appreciate your feedback/thoughts.

Ragards
George

George,

Haven't read the draft, but do the problems
disappear with triangular routing? 
Or would you still have the same problem for inbound
traffic?

GT> Inbound traffic is ok because of PFANE in MIPv4 and BU to oldAR in MIPv6
so, yes this is only when you do reverse tunneling. Actually the packet loss
is mostly at the HA side. For example if the HA has a reverse tunnel entry
from CoAx it can accept packets coming from that CoA. If now the MN moves,
it will send a new reverse registration for CoAy. If this reaches the HA
while packets from the oldCoAx are still on their way to the HA, these
packets will thrown on the floor (because the HA replaces old binding with
new one). And there is a bit more loss if the CoAy registration is
immediately followed by data packets because of difference between fast and
slow paths in the HA...

Another question, for MIPv4, is it more due to the fact
that reverse tunnelling is done by the FA? Because 
this doesn't exist in v6.

GT> As I said this is mostly a problem at the HA side...


Sorry I don't mean to hammer you with questions but
I'm just curious about the main reasons. 

GT> No problem...have a look at the draft and do not let the too many
options of how to solve the problem confuse you ...this is not complex...it
is just that it has to be dealt with.

Tom/Parviz/Ernie,

I don't think an IETF mailing list is the right place to pursue 3GPP2
debates.

One of the factors in the success of the IETF/3GPP collaboration
described in Minneapolis was that 3GPP came to IETF with a list of
working group drafts which they needed and dates when they needed them
by. I would suggest that TSG-P should come to an agreement about which
working group drafts they need from the MIP group and let the WG chairs
and responsible ADs know. Similarly for other IETF WGs where drafts are
needed. Furthermore, if there is technical work on MIP or any other IETF
protocol that TSG-P thinks needs doing and there currently isn't a WG
draft, then members of TSG-P who are acctive in the working group can
submit drafts and request that they be given working group status, as
usual.

                jak

Hesham,

The problem is more complex than just using IAPP as a trigger for fast
handover. The current working assumption of 802.11f is that fast
handovers for voice can be supported using reactive handover. That is,
the new access point does the IAPP transaction with the old after the MN
has moved rather than the other way around. We've measured L2 handover
times at from 90-200 ms with existing products, the IAPP transaction +
reactive MIP handover would need to be added to that, and they are
additionally proposing adding security to IAPP. Since total (L2 + L3)
handover time must be under 40 ms for voice (if you want to support it),
their current model of reactive handover is probably not going to get
anywhere near supporting voice.

In fact, I think it unlikely that 802.11 could really benefit in any
significant way from the fast handover work in the MIP group, given the
L2 performance of existing products and the current 802.11f efforts to
have the APs use IAPP posthandover, regardless of whether it is possible
to implement a nonstandard mobile-based trigger.

So, we are trying to convince the 802.11f WG to change from a reactive
to a proactive model. This would defined a standardized way for the AP
to issue a prehandover trigger to the router or MN to get a prehandover
trigger based on power levels, and for the AP to initiate the IAPP
transaction with the new AP prior to the MN moving. There is some work
going on at U. Maryland to measure 802.11 L2 handover times and
hopefully this will give the 802.11 group some data to base modifying
the basic L2 handover protocol if needed, and for vendors to get some
baseline to improve their products.

As to how likely they are to accept this model, I think it is probably
no more difficult than trying to persuade an IETF WG to accept
something, and they are certainly motivated since they want to support
voice. At the worst, we will be able to convince them they either need
to provide some standardized support for fast handover or give up the
goal of supporting voice.

=> Which is exactly my point. IAPP is not relevant here. 
The only way to do it in WLAN (at least so far) is to
make sure that the MN initiates the handover
based on internal triggers.

=> I don't understand why PREREG is not considered
a solution here? We always assumed that IAPP is
not relevant.

=> James I don't understand why or how you can do that.
Unless you have connection oriented l2s with the MN
reporting measurements to the APs, you can't 
do it. Is IEEE going to design a cellular network
now? 
Even if this happens, are we going to run IAPP
between subnets?? Even if we do that, wouldn't
there still be some interruption from the time 
IAPP does its thing, till the MN actually moves?

The level of complication is astounding and frankly
I don't understand why you would want to do that.

If people within the WG keep ignoring the work that this 
WG is doing, then I agree, nothing produced 
by the WG will ever be used!

=> Well, I suppose the concept of designing a new

Good luck!

=> There is another alternative, tell them that

I think with FMIPv6 you can defer the BU to the HA until the traffic
slows down.

Also, what about registering CoAy as an alt-CoA initially?

I'm not sure I understand this, maybe I need to read Alan's draft.

Jim,

We agree that 3GPP2 debates are not a topic for the MIP mailing list.  At the
same time I'd like to state that 3GPP2 members have partcipated in IETF working
groups for four years now as individuals. 

An ftp pointer to a 3GPP2 contribution was posted without our being consulted.
The purpose of the contribution is for internal discussion within 3GPP2. I
responded to the MIP mailing list to put it in context, so it would not be
misinterpreted.  When we come to some conclusions in 3GPP2, we'll be sure to
bring input to the working group. 

Thanks,
Tom

I don't think I have spent enough time reading the latest (146 pages ?)
MIPv6 draft I guess :-) So, for the HA case, as there are no cookies
we need to store it in NV for preventing replay attacks. I am not able
to see how you can ever remove this entry from NV. As soon as you remove
it,
a old binding update can be replayed and will be accepted I guess.

I think with FMIPv6 you can defer the BU to the HA until the traffic
slows down.

GT> And what will that do? and when will the traffic slow down? I guess I do
not understand what you are saying.

Also, what about registering CoAy as an alt-CoA initially?

GT> From what I understand about alt-COAs they do replace your bindings,
don't they? so you still have the problem.

I'm not sure I understand this, maybe I need to read Alan's draft.

Yes, but a home agent also need to permanently retain information about
the MNs it is serving such as
	home address		manual IPsec key	# if manual keys
	home address		certficate		# if IKE is used
[IKE could presumably use pre-shared keys etc. as well.]

The only additional requirement due to the sequence number is that
it will change as bindings are processed.

Ok, that puts things in perspective :-) But may be I am reading into
what NV memory is i.e the above are generally not stored in NV memory.
That sort of strikes as a new and different requirement which in
practice
is not. So, perhaps it can be reworded or just state what you have said
above which makes it very clear.

I couldn't agree more.  3GPP2/TSG-P is making an effort to improve communications with the IETF.  Specifically an IETF draft dependency list is being generated to convey specific 3GPP2 needs/requirements.  My point is that this list needs to be an approved 3GPP2-wide list communicated under the liaison agreement in RFC3131, NOT a forwarded, unapproved, "spun" corporate contribution to a specific 3GPP2 TSG.   

I might doubt that the general IETF audience is aware of the protocols and procedures used to make corporate member contributions into SDOs like 3GPP2. I would hate to see a precedence of "unapproved" contributions made into another forum forwarded to specific IETF WG lists and misrepresented as fact.

thanx

Tom/Parviz/Ernie,

I don't think an IETF mailing list is the right place to pursue 3GPP2
debates.

One of the factors in the success of the IETF/3GPP collaboration
described in Minneapolis was that 3GPP came to IETF with a list of
working group drafts which they needed and dates when they needed them
by. I would suggest that TSG-P should come to an agreement about which
working group drafts they need from the MIP group and let the WG chairs
and responsible ADs know. Similarly for other IETF WGs where drafts are
needed. Furthermore, if there is technical work on MIP or any other IETF
protocol that TSG-P thinks needs doing and there currently isn't a WG
draft, then members of TSG-P who are acctive in the working group can
submit drafts and request that they be given working group status, as
usual.

If the vendors build IAPP into their APs and 802.11 handover is designed
to require a secure IAPP transaction to complete before the new AP lets
the MN send packets onto the new link, then this will lengthen 802.11
handover out considerably beyond the rather poor performance of the
current round of AP products. Regardless of what the MN does prior to
handover. So I think it is very relevent indeed.

It doesn't matter which fast handover algorithm is used, if the IAPP
transaction takes, say, 200 ms to complete and the L2 handover takes 200
ms to complete before the MN is allowed to get new packets through the
new AP, then any optimization at Layer 3 will  be in the noise. I wasn't
making a point about PREREG v.s. POSTREG, I was making a point about how
the assumptions being made by the 802.11 committee are causing both
algorithms to be not useful.

Please stay calm, Hesham.

"We" are not going to run IAPP, that is what the 802.11 committee wants
to do. The problem IAPP is supposed to solve is to tell the old access
point to unallocate buffers and clean up other data structures
associated with providing the MN with IP connectivity. Onto that, there
has been additional stuff loaded, like context transfer. Also, I believe
they are thinking of using it for flushing the ARP cache.

I'd suggest that if you have some interest in seeing the right thing
done, you contact Bernard Abboba who has been  monitoring them closely,
and have him brief you on the details. Also, take a look at the 802.11f
IAPP spec, http://grouper.ieee.org/groups/802/11/ and browse from there.
If you see something that he and I have missed, then  please let us
know. We are just trying to convince them that their protocol needs some
work if it will properly support fast IP handover.

No.. Whereever this is available, it shall be used.
If the network can detect disassociation (a L2 feature)
and can pass this information to AR (sometimes implementation,
sometimes a new protocol issue depending on whether L2 and
L3 are co-located or not), this can be used.

Bi-casting is used to compensate for uncertainity
on the network as to when the mobile leaves. 
If we can solve the root of the problem, we don't need
bi-casting. So, this is worth looking at.

The trigger (at least I am talking about) is
LINK DOWN. So it's OK if it happens
after the handover. As long as it happens
shortly (how short?) after the handover, it's fine.
This is not pre-trigger.

James,

Maybe the larger question is why WE (the IETF) is concerned with how a link
layer mobility management protocol works and indeed why are we discussing
how it should be changed to become better or worst. Otherwise we should also
get the specs from GSMA, 3GPP, 3GPP2, and a hundred other organizations and
start analyzing them and trying to make them do this and that.

I think this does not make any sense at all...and I wonder...is it only me?

George

If the vendors build IAPP into their APs and 802.11 handover is designed
to require a secure IAPP transaction to complete before the new AP lets
the MN send packets onto the new link, then this will lengthen 802.11
handover out considerably beyond the rather poor performance of the
current round of AP products. Regardless of what the MN does prior to
handover. So I think it is very relevent indeed.

It doesn't matter which fast handover algorithm is used, if the IAPP
transaction takes, say, 200 ms to complete and the L2 handover takes 200
ms to complete before the MN is allowed to get new packets through the
new AP, then any optimization at Layer 3 will  be in the noise. I wasn't
making a point about PREREG v.s. POSTREG, I was making a point about how
the assumptions being made by the 802.11 committee are causing both
algorithms to be not useful.

Please stay calm, Hesham.

"We" are not going to run IAPP, that is what the 802.11 committee wants
to do. The problem IAPP is supposed to solve is to tell the old access
point to unallocate buffers and clean up other data structures
associated with providing the MN with IP connectivity. Onto that, there
has been additional stuff loaded, like context transfer. Also, I believe
they are thinking of using it for flushing the ARP cache.

I'd suggest that if you have some interest in seeing the right thing
done, you contact Bernard Abboba who has been  monitoring them closely,
and have him brief you on the details. Also, take a look at the 802.11f
IAPP spec, http://grouper.ieee.org/groups/802/11/ and browse from there.
If you see something that he and I have missed, then  please let us
know. We are just trying to convince them that their protocol needs some
work if it will properly support fast IP handover.

The question is really if alt-coa is still useful for
its intended purpose, which is something that the design team
doesn't understand.

So let me spell things out in detail to see if something jumps out.
Assume a MN has two CoAs: C1 and C2.
It wants to create the binding to C2 but (for whatever
reason) it wants to send the actual BU packet with C1 as a source.

It would then do HoTI/HoT as normal.
Send a CoTI with C2 as the source, and receive the CoT with C2 as
the destination.
Then it has the cookies necessary to send a BU for CoA=C2
and it can use any source address for that BU by including the alt-coa
option.
Thus the MN needs to be able to both send and receive packets
on the alt-coa address in order to get the right Care-of cookie.

As long as this is still useful things are fine.
But if folks where intending to use alt-coa for cases when the MN can't
(yet) send and/or receive on that address there is a problem to combine
this with RR.

  Erik

Good suggestion. We are in the process of establishing a formal liaison between
TSG-P and IETF WGs (MIP, AAA, etc).

George,

Good point.

The 802.11 committee drafted a liason letter which is on the IETF liason
page regarding EAP after a period of informal contacts between the
committee and an IETF member, namely Bernard. The letter requested some
joint action regarding EAP, the BOF held in Minneapolis is a result, and
if the IESG approves, a WG will form.

The work I've been discussing is currently in the current informal
stage, which Bernard and I are pursuing because we'd like to see 802.11
do the right thing for supporting IP handover. At some point, it may
become desirable to formalize the association through a liason letter
similar to what was drafted for EAP.

So, IETF is doing nothing formally with respect to 802.11f right now,
Bernard and I are. IETF is doing something formally with 802.11i
regarding EAP, and that is described in the aformentioned liason letter.

            jak

Sorry to interrupt..

I think if IAPP is improved in IEEE, that's good; another crucial step
towards supporting real-time applications during WLAN mobility..
For us, we should constrain ourselves with IP mobility aspects. If it
turns out that certain link-specific issues are of interest, they should
be handled separately in an appropriate "link-specific extensions"
document.

In general, I have reservations to including L2-specific optimizations
in the base specification.

My 2 cents..

Hi Jari,

As being discussed, section 4.5.4 "Securing Binding Updates to Hame Agents" 
needs some clarification on sequence number usage for HA and MN.

Vijay's description below clears concept for MN behavior in case it reboots.
As per Vijay's description on draft15, HA can accept BUs with any seq# after HA
 reboots as it does not keep the state upon reboot.

I am trying to understand how useful would it be to keep the seqno/MN 
information in HA's NV memory. If the HA reboots it looses all other
information including binding etc. But when the MN re-registers with HA
it'll use a seq#  higher than what's in the HA's NV ram.

Although, it adds extra replay protection at HA, I'd think, the
home-agent usage of NV memory could be optional. I'd like to know
how big is the threat in this particular case (i,e if HA reboots).
If we somehow decide that HA should preserve the bindings accross reboot,
then obviously, it makes sense to have all the information intact. 

Also this section mentions "The mobile node and homeagent MAY on a new key
for the security association before this many (2**31) BU have been sent if
this is an issue".
I wonder if we leave it as MAY, then there might be some interoperability issues
as MN and HA may have different expectations.

Please see my additional comments on draft 16 changes below.
       ==============================================

More comments/questions on the new changes for draft16:

1. section 4.5.5, please clarify  in words how the Correspondent node
   secret key Kcn would be used. There is an example of MAC_Kcn in COT
   message processing, but that is not very clear.
   
2. In HOTI and COTI messages we use "nonce" index. What is "nonce" index?
   Is it a random number ? IBM has IPR on nonces, how different or same
   is this nonce index from IBM's nonces ? 
   
3. section 5.1.8 refers to "refresh" field. After last Connectathon and
   the followup discussion at IETF, I think we have decided to remove
   the "refresh" field as default and make it optional --correct ?
   
   More later.
   
   Thanks,
   -Samita

Hesham,
I am not talking about pre-trigger here.
But I do not see any thing wrong in providing 
link up and link down trigger at AR after L2 handover.

Just a question, are you guys aware that
this trigger happens _after_ the handover?

I can't see how this helps fast handoffs.

I don't think it makes much sense storing the
BU sequence number in NV memory.  Since all BUs to
the home agent (home registrations) should be protected
by some kind of security (the latest specs mandates ESP),
then replay protection would be provided by ESP itself.

The home agent MAY store the key/cert in NV ram as Eric
suggested, but that completely depends on the configuration.

Just my thoughts.

[Rajeev:] If I may add to this.. In the current version of FMIPv6,
a MN binds (or attempts to bind) its current CoA-1 with a prospective
CoA-2 valid on the new access router.  In other words, CoA-1 is the
temporary HoA. So, the addresses in Fast BU look as follows:

Src-IP = CoA-1, Dst-IP = AR-1, HAO = CoA-1, alt-coa = CoA-2.

For HoTI/HoT test: since the AR-1 is the AR forwarding packets to
CoA-1, this is somewhat simplified. In fact, ProxyRtSol can be HoTI
and ProxyRtAdv can be HoT.

For CoTI/CoT test: here, AR-2 may "vouch" that CoA-2 is valid using
Handover Initiate/ Ack sequence. Only when AR-1 receives such a
confirmation from AR-2 which it trusts, AR-1 will bind CoA-1 to
CoA-2. Note that if AR-2 agrees to "host" CoA-2 until the MN arrives,
you cannot flood any arbitrary node but AR-2 itself. But, AR-2
only maintains a very small buffer corresponding to proxy ND cache for
packets destined for CoA-2.

Assuming that AR-1 and AR-2 have security association, could this
vouching by AR-2 be considered sufficient ?

-Rajeev

Rajeev,

Since I don't know much about FMIPv6 let me try to restate an
approximation which should't add any significant new residual threats.
Assume AR-1 and AR-2 have a security association used for these messages.

AR-1 sends something to AR-2 saying "MN coming your way - will have CoA-2
when it arrives".
AR-2 responds with "ok, I will forward the CoT when I get it".
Then AR-2 then forwards the CoT to either AR-2 (which in turn sends
it to CoA-1) or directly to CoA-1 at which point the MN can send the BU.

Basically AR-2 trusts AR-1, under the security association, so that 
random nodes can't get it to forward CoT for bogus CoAs.

   Erik

Rajeev,

I think security on the HI/HAck should remove the need for the CoAT.

Currently, I don't think the FMIPv6 draft says anything explicit about
security on HI/HAck, however. It should be made explicit.

Erik,

I don't think there even needs to be a CoT message. The HI includes the
proposed new CoA-2 within it for stateless, and the HAck includes it for
stateful. If there is a signature on HI, AR-2 will know it came from a
legitimate source. For stateful, AR-2 is providing the address, and a
signature will allow AR-1 to know that it came from a legitmate source.

One of the benefits of having real routers involved is that we can
leverage off the routing security infrastructure.

So the BU isn't going to be sent to a CN?
I was assuming it would be in which case the MN would need to correct
Home cookie and Care-of cookie.

My understanding is that ESP with manual keying can't provide replay
protection. Assuming we need this replay protection I think the choices
are
 - sequence numbers in nvram'
 - no manual keying - implement IKE (with at least pre-shared secrets) in
   all MNs and HAs

But I might be missing something.

I'm not sure I understand. The MN does need to send an F-BU to the old
AR. That either happens when the MN is on the old link or on the new.
What I'm saying is that I don't believe there needs to be an RR test on
the new CoA because the HI/HAck exchange allows the old AR, which
is serving as the on link home agent, can be strongly authenticated.

I agree with you. I was trying to draw out parallels using the
RR jargon (hangover:-). In short,

AR-1 trusts CoA-1. AR-1 trusts CoA-2 transitively through AR-2, what
I called vouching. Hence, AR-1 can bind CoA-1 to CoA-2.

Perhaps Erik was thinking that MN may wish to send a BU to CN
from AR-1 itself. Is that right ? This is not needed for FMIPv6, since
BU transmission epoch is not time-critical.

Yes.

I must have missed that e-mail, can someone send a copy to
me?

Anyway, there seems to be a few different issues:

1. Now that reverse tunneling is mandatory if there's no
    RO, part of the problem goes away.
2. When RO is used, a CoA is not site-local, so this isn't
    a problem either.
3. Authentication of the tunnel. Is there some difference
    in the security impacts whether or note link/site-local
    addresses or global addresses are used? If not, would
    the current text on MAY use authenticated tunnels be
    sufficient?

There are ways to update the NVM in a manner that this isn't a problem.
But I'm fine with a SHOULD too.

How about this:

The Home Address Option MUST not appear more
than once in any given packet, except inside the payload part of the
packet if tunneling is involved.

Assuming something has to be done, is this something that has to go to
the base RFC, or something that can be done in an extension separately?

The text seems a bit outdated. How about this:

A home agent MUST support decapsulating reverse tunneled packets sent
to it from a mobile node's home address. Such reverse tunneled packets
MAY be discarded unless accompanied by a valid AH or ESP header,
depending on the security policies used by the home agent. In any
case, the home agent MUST check that the source address in the
tunneled packets corresponds to the currently registered location of
the mobile node, as otherwise any node in the Internet could send
traffic through the home agent and escape ingress filtering
limitations.

The support for authenticated reverse tunneling allows the home agent
to protect the home network and correspondent nodes from malicious
nodes masquerading as a mobile node, even if they know the current
location of the real mobile node. The support for encrypted reverse
tunneling allows mobile nodes to defeat certain kinds of traffic
analysis.

How about this:


Every home agent MUST support decapsulating reverse tunneled packets
sent to it from a mobile node's home address. Every home agent MUST
also check that the source address in the tunneled packets corresponds
to the currently registered location of the mobile node.


Question: is there something else missing from the list?

Right, I believe what Vijay described does have a small vulnerability
in that after a reboot replays are possible.

Yes. Why don't we use the -15 scheme, describe the remaining threat and
make the seqno-preservation through reboots a SHOULD (or a MAY).

I don't think so. There has to be a key management scheme to change the key,
and I can only think of two: IKE and a manual change. In either case it will
be apparent if the other side does not support this activity. For instance, if
manual keying is used then the administrator either gets hold of the mobile node's
owner and asks him to change the key, or he doesn't ;-)

But perhaps we should clarify in the draft that the mobile IP protocol as such
will not start complaining about too old keys. So, as far as mobile IP concerned
this wrapping over is ok, and does not result in any error codes.

This key is used by the correspondent node to accept only the use of cookies
which it has created itself. Adding some text...

It is just an efficient way to find the right nonce. Adding some text..

As for the IPRs, please tell me more! Do you have a pointer to IBM's
