A bit late I know due to a bout of flu..

Just wanted to mention that Nested MIP also supports these apparently
conflicting requirements because once again it is the MN that registers the
Regional address (RoA) into the global HA.

There is also the option for the MN to register via the Regional Mobility
Agent (RMA) which I guess has some similarities to your extended mode Hesham
in its security implications..

I for one though would suggest that the LMM requirements are somewhat harsh
in that a MN SHOULD be able to use end to end security and employ a direct
MIP BU, but MAY alternatively go via a trusted intermediate element, and use
a chain of trust that maybe in place between these elements either as a
supplement or a replacement to the e-e security approach.

Any push-back on that ?

=> These are requirements and are not meant to show how
it can be done. Of course we don't want to place impossible
requirements, but as Greg explained, this is already doable
to a large extent with the existing HMIPv6, so I don't think 
it's impossible.

We considered the same question for Nemo in:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-thubert-nemo-reverse-routing-header-00
.txt

Since RH type 0 is to be used in the infrastructure and RH type 2 is to be used
within the remote mobile extremity (Mobile node or Mobile Network), we suggested
the following:
"
4.3 Extension Header order

   (...)  If a RH type 0 is present in the packet, then the RH type 2 is
   placed immediately after the RH type 0, and the RH type 0 MUST be
   consumed before the RH type 2.
"

Note that our draft extends RH type 2 to be multihop within the mobile network,
with updated semantics and checkings. I cannot see how the RH type 2 as defined
in MIP could deprecate or replace the RH type 0 since it's not multihop, so I
exclude c and d. Our extension requires specific checkings, and can not
deprecate RH 0 either.

   There's an open question, however.

=> no, RFC 2460 stands (RHs are processed in order).

   What does this mean for RH0.
   Possible interpretations:

      (a) Orthogonal. For some other purpose, RH0 may also be used. If
          so, we may need some rules on how RH0 and RH2 work if they
          are applied together, and perhaps also some rules on
          home addresses appeaering in RH0.

      (b) Not at the same time. Forbid RH0 if RH2 appears in the packet.
          If for some obscure reason someone wants to use RH0, then
          the use of RO is not possible at the same time.

      (c) Not by MIPv6 MNs and CNs. Devices supporting MIPv6 CN or MN
          functionality may no longer support RH0 at all.

      (d) Deprecate. Thou shall not use RH0 at all.

   Personally, I think the last one is the really right action but

=> I strongly disagree because we can need RH0 one day. So the proper
action is (a) and Mobile IPv6 has nothing to specify.

   I realize this isn't going to be agreed upon now ;-) Perhaps
   the second option would be the way to go. Other opinions?

=> I can't see a problem with multiple RHs even this case has no
usage today. So let just apply RFC 2460 which gives (a).

Hi Greg

 Excuse the late response as I was away for a conference. I am aware of
the mapping that you refer to; what I am find difficult to accept is how
one can "hide" the on-link CoA of the MN (privacy say through giving the
RCoA), without "interfering"?

Consider again the situation:

The MN is represented by the RCoA (which is basicaly the addr of the LMM
agent)

It provides to the CN and HA the RCoA addr as _its_ address. So the CN
is made to believe that it sets a security association (at the tunnel
level since the socket would be aware only of the home address) with the
MN. But the tunnel is securely associated with the LMM agent (which
indirects the packet to the MN).

Isn't that considered interference of the LMM agent in the security
bindings of the MN-CN?? I though it LMM was all about interference of
the LMM agent (hence the indirection)..

Greg Daley wrote:

Exactly...who sets this reverse tunnel, and on behalf who?? (IMHO the
LMM agent injects to the MN what must be considered its CoA (i.e. the
RCoA) the CN "buys" that and sets the SA for the tunnel with the LMM
agent. Of course RR ensures that this is secure but, if that is not
interference, then what is it?)

I fear that privacy of the MN and interference of the LMM in the
security binding of the MN are a bit conflicting since LMM is all about
interference (i.e. the link between MN/CN is attributed privacy through
indirect interference of the LMM agent)


Isn't that the case?

Hi James,

  What I am pondering about is the conflict of "interference" of the LMM
agent with the security bindings, while it aims to provide privacy to
the location of the MN at the MN peers.

The LMM clearly injects a RCoA addr in basic mode, into the MN, which is
suppossed to be believed by the CNs of the MN (even with RR) at the CoA
of the MN. On this basis the SA for the tunnel between the CN and the
LMM agent are set (am I wrong?). Isn't that interference??

My concern is the conflict of "privacy" with "interference" and the
inherent property of indirection in LMM which is really the very
semantics of "interference" (at least in my mind)

am I mistaken?

So it looks like we want to pick alternative (a), i.e., that the
RH0 and RH2 are orthogonal and could even appear in the same packet.

Francis argues that this is sufficient, and no special rules
will be needed. I suspected in my e-mail that we might need
some rules, and Pascal described rules he used in Nemo context
for the same problem.

Section 6.4.1 of our document already specifies that RH2 must
be the last RH, i.e., a rule similar to Pascal's rule. As
Francis points out, processing order follows from placement
order.

It appears that the existing rule is necessary, as the
home address verification check is rather meaningless if the
packet is immediately going to be forwarded elsewhere. The
rule seems sufficient, because doing RH2 last avoids opening
up any holes in the MIPv6 processing rules with an additional
RH0.

Ok? If yes, the only text change needed would be to remove the
imprecise language in 9.6:

    ...
    for this address, the sending node SHOULD use a Routing header to
    route the packet to this mobile node (the destination node) by way
    of the care-of address in the binding recorded in that Binding Cache
    entry.  For example, assuming use of a Type 2 Routing header (see
    Section 6.4), if no other use of a Routing header is involved in
    the routing of this packet, the mobile node sets the fields in the
    packet's IPv6 header and Routing header as follows:

=>

    for this address, the sending node SHOULD use a Type 2 Routing header
    to route the packet to this mobile node (the destination node) by way

    mobile node sets the fields in the packet's IPv6 header and Routing

From section 6.1.7 (Binding Update message): "If no actual options are
present in this message, no padding is necessary and the Header Len
field will be set to 4."
The Mobility Header has 6 bytes followed by 6 bytes of Binding Update
message (sections 6.1.1 and 6.1.7 respectively) yielding 12 bytes. The
header len is in 8-byte units so a header length of 4 means 32 bytes.
I think the text in 6.1.7 should read as follows:
"If no actual options are present in this message, 4 bytes of padding
are necessary and the Header Len field will be set to 2".
I haven't checked the padding and length examples in any of the other
sections (yet).

It's not yet a standard, right? It's still RFC, and I'm just giving my
comments on it. I'm only trying to work as a "fire fighter" to prevent
dubious requirements to get into standards (and hurting everyone
there).

NIBY??? (if this is supposed to mean "Not Invented By You", I'm
somewhat offended). My complaint about sending MLD reports on link
local groups has nothing to do with anything I invented or didn't
invent. It purely technical issue, based on

- there is no reason for using MLD for link local multicast groups
  as far IPv6 (layer-3) is concerned.

- the only presented reason for them is some layer-2 snooping. This is
  layer violation, a hack, which should not be codified in standards.

- at least it should be optional for link local multicast groups used
  in Neighbor discovery

- illogical definition: you cannot join solicited nodes multicast
  group before you have address, you cannot do DAD without listening
  to solicited nodes multicast group

- layer-2 snooper can get the same information from the ND traffic
  directly,

Establishing an IPsec tunnel to the VPN gateway will ruin the

I agree. There is no point in mobile IP VPN trying to
duplicate/substitute what mobile IP does.

This problem was a consideration for us in developing VPN and NAT
compatibility solution. If someone in So Cal is interested in testing
our VPN on their mobile IP setup, please contact me.

I think we want to maintain end-to-end security for MIPv6. It is necessary for
the IPsec SA used to secure binding update traffic, for example.

The issue is the extra tunnel overhead, especially on the wireless link, though
also on any T1 links from the aggregation router to the access router. Header
compression can help, but there are issues on handoff.

 In your previous mail you wrote:

   It's not yet a standard, right?

=> it is a proposed standard.

   It's still RFC,

=> ????

   and I'm just giving my
   comments on it. I'm only trying to work as a "fire fighter" to prevent
   dubious requirements to get into standards (and hurting everyone
   there).
   
=> there is a time for this : last call(s) for the next version
which is proposed for the IGMPv3/MLDv2 upgrade and draft standard status.

   - there is no reason for using MLD for link local multicast groups
     as far IPv6 (layer-3) is concerned.
   
=> there is a very well known reason: snooping by layer-2 switches.

   - the only presented reason for them is some layer-2 snooping. This is
     layer violation, a hack, which should not be codified in standards.
   
=> so you should flame the draft-ietf-magma-snoop-02.txt document
in the magma list.

   - at least it should be optional for link local multicast groups used
     in Neighbor discovery
   
=> I can't see how it can be optional: either it is useful so is
recommended/required, or it is not useful so is not recommended/required.

   - illogical definition: you cannot join solicited nodes multicast
     group before you have address,

=> I don't understand: I can send a join message.

     you cannot do DAD without listening
     to solicited nodes multicast group
   
=> I agree.

   - layer-2 snooper can get the same information from the ND traffic
     directly,
   
=> no, layer-2 snooper can get the information (has someone joined
this group) only through MLD snooping for any group, i.e., ND is
not a special case.

   - sending MLD's on big monolithic stacks, can be minor issue (code is
     already there), but for small devices, like cell phones, modularity
     is desired. One should be able to run IPv6 without MLD.
   
=> this was already discussed and the consensus is that MLD is mandatory
to implement.

   - if layer-2 snoop is going to make use of MLD, it or some part of it
     must actually be node on the network

=> no, the layer-2 snooper is a layer-2 snooper by definition.

     and work as a multicast router to make queries
     (a switch can be powered off when host is attached
     or just powered off and loses the state)
   
=> the MLD state is a soft state so this is not a real problem.

   - in practice, there will never be "leave group" MLD's from hosts on
     the link (hosts leave the link usually by user just unplugging it).
   
=> same.

   ps. There has been some discussion about having DAD optional on 3GPP
   links. Requiring MLD would add more packets to that link: MLD join +
   DAD.
   
=> s/would add/adds/ because MLD is mandatory. But you still can remove
the support of multicast on the links (and remove MLD too). Perhaps
this is the best solution if your argument is that multicast just sucks.

...and which totally bogus, as such switch cannot utilize the
information in any significant way. Remember, I'm talking about LINK
LOCAL MULTICAST groups used in IPv6 NEIGHTBOR DISCOVERY. And, as
linklocal all-nodes is ALREADY excempted from the MLD, what is left is
*ONLY* the solicited node multicast. I vote that, it too is exempted.

When is this joined? ONLY when node configures a NEW id for address,
so what we are seeing on link, is two back-to-back messages:

  1) join solicited node group (MLD), followed by
  2) ND DAD probe

I just can't see any significant use for the (1), even for layer-2
snooper. The probe alone carries exactly the same information as the
useless MLD join. And whats worse, the switch will increase the
probability of DAD "failing to do its suff"... (if it decides not to
forward the DAD to all links based on some stale soft state -- it
definetly cannot start querying at this point).

Additionally, when ND is protected by IPSEC, the switch needs to do
the IPSEC also.

Right, I'm requesting it to be at least optional. I don't think it
(MLD for link local ND groups) is useful for anything.

Yes, with "::" source address. Kinky.. :)

Then it cannot send queries, and it's knowledge about solicited node
groups is totally "soft", practically useless (unless it snoops other
ND traffic, in which case it doesn't need MLD at all for those).

Where did I say "multicast sucks". I definitely like multicast, I'm
just talking about these link local groups here, and specifically
about ND discovery part of it.

I think you are specifically talking about using a routing proxy for LMM, such
as HMIP, as opposed to directly using the routing fabric, right? If you use the
routing fabric, there should be no issue with security.

I can't see an issue with basic mode HMIP. The MAP doesn't touch the inside of
the packet in basic mode, it just tunnels to the MN. The signaling to change the
RCoA is between the MN and the HA, the MAP never gets involved. The MN delegates
the routing to the MAP and must provide the proper credentials to the HA to
effect that delegation.

Extended mode has a problem, because it removes the HA tunnel. So far, I've seen
no suggestion from anybody about how to solve the problem. If we can't figure
out how to solve it, I think we should remove extended mode from the spec.

There is, of course, an issue of whether the MN can trust a MAP to act as a
routing proxy for it. Some kind of authentication procedure is required,
otherwise, anybody could advertise as a MAP. Since the MAP is not part of the
routing fabric, the authentication procedure must be separate from the
authentication between the MN and its access router, though perhaps related.

There are also nonsecurity related issues (tunnel overhead, single point of
failure, etc.) involving a routing proxy approach.

Hi Theo,

It's certainly a very important issue
(e-to-e security association).  I'll try to indicate how
I see things, especially regarding the security aspects.

How I see the issue with HMIPv6 Basic is that there is an address at
the MAP, which is delegated to the MN through a security association
and a binding with the MAP. The LMM agent (MAP) then treats the
address specially, but doesn't interfere with packets sent and received 
from this address.

All packets bound for this address are proxy neighbour discovered,
and sent on, just in the same way that a home agent in MIPv6 does.
No packets are received and processed by the LMM agent as its own.
It's a router with host-specific dynamic tunnels to the MN's LCoA.

The idea is that the address is not the MAP's, it's the MN's, but
managed by the MAP.

Reverse tunnelling can be provided as an advertised service by the MAP.
If there is such a binding/SA pair with the MN, it can send packets
with the RCoA as source address, in order to get around ingress
filtering.

This just means that the packets are sent
[Src:LCoA,Dest:MAP,Payload[Src:RCoA,Dest:CN,Payload:Y]]

and decapsulated by the MAP (which explicitly allows this
type of tunnel).

the MAP, which has done a proxy DAD for the RCoA on its link
knows that it may send the de-encapsulated packet out onto the
link.

the packet looks like:

[Src:RCoA,Dest:CN,Payload:Y]

This is equivalent of MIPv6 reverse tunnelled services provided by
HA's, if no route optimization is used.

on access networks where MN's may use the RCoA as a packet source
address, location privacy is accomplished trivially by the MN.

As you see, in neither the CN->MN nor the MN->CN direction does
the LMM agent treat the packets as it's own. It is a dynamic tunnel
server, which uses bindings to determine

I'd say that the security and privacy provided by tunneling
has actually been removed through the route optimization
interactions in MIPv6.  The ability of the MN to select an
LMM agent which can provide these services (based on the
removal of the RO requirements in the access network) are
a re-instatement of those capabilities.

In those situations where the CN doesn't need RO capabilities
in MIPv6, the same services can be provided with a HA.
In every case, the HA does not interfere with any communications
between the MN and CN, except to provide dynamic tunnels for a home
address (which is the real address of the node).

 From my point of view, in HMIPv6, the RCoA is the real address
of the MN.  The LCoA is just an address it found on the visited
network.

Hi Markku,

I'm not sure if this is just fuel for the fire,
or another idea you haven't seen.

The draft I've written attempts to make some use of the
(possibly illogical) requirement that IPv6 nodes do MLD
on Solicited Nodes Multicast in order to do DAD.

here's the URL:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-daley-ipv6-mcast-dad-00.txt

It allows an MLD router (the querier) to watch listener
state on the network and respond to a report if that
solicited nodes multicast address is not in use.
(indicating that DAD is successful and the address is unique).

It's not pretty, but it may be a the nearest thing to a
significant use for this requirement.

As far as I can see, Optional doesn't really help, if there
are some nodes doing MLD for DAD and others aren't there will
never be applications which can rely on it (so the situation
is self perpetuating...;)

I don't really see why you can't send from a tentative address
in this case. There are no responses being sent to unicast L3
addresses (and none off link).  using "::" means that anyone
else listening to your MLD report (existing nodes/routers)
will ignore it.

If you can get MLD for link-scope multicast addresses removed,
please do it entirely.

It doesn't help anyone to have half a standard.

  | ...and which totally bogus, as such switch cannot utilize the
  | information in any significant way.

Huh???

Perhaps we can step back and look at what is going on here.

When we have a multicast address, it is being sent to perhaps multiple
(but usually not all) nodes on a link.

When we have a link implemented by a switch, it (often) learns what
addresses are on each port (by noting the source MAC addr) and only
sends packets to the ports where an address occurs.

Since nothing is ever sent from a multicast address, and since it can
live on multiple ports (unlike a unicast address) it wouldn't matter if
something was, the switch can't use that method to work out which ports
a packet to a multicast address should be sent to.

It then has two choices - either send the packet to everyone, which
turns it (almost) into a broadcast, which we're trying to get away
from, or create some new protocol by which nodes notify the switch of
the multicast addresses they want sent to them.

So, let's assume for now that the latter has been done, because we
don't want multicast packets sent everywhere (normally).   Whenever a
node joins a multicast address, it engages in this link level protocol
so the switches can learn which multicast address goes where.

Now there's also the IP level multicast - the routers also (in general)
need to know which links multicast packets need to be sent to, so at the
IP level there's the MLD protocol by which a node informs a router that
packets for some (IP level) multicast address should be sent to it (or
really, just sent to the link where the node resides).

So, when a node joins a multicast address it needs to engage in the MLD
protocol to allow the routers to find out what is going on.

So, for every (general) multicast address, the node would have to run
two protocols, the link level one, and the IP level one, so all the right
devices know where multicast packets should get sent.

That's dumb - the two of them convey essntially the same information
(especially when viewed from the point of view of the relevant receiver,
with the other knowledge it has - the router knows which link by the
link the packet is received from, the switch knows which port by the port
the packet is received from).   So, rather than use two protocols, the
switch and the router both just use the contents of one packet, and get
their information from that.   You can call this a "layer violation"
if you like, but this isn't unusual, we do lots of "layer violations"
in the name of efficiency (I don't see you refusing to implement the
TCP pseudo-header for example, but that's a layer violation too...)

Now, in the special case of link local multicast, the router level (IP)
protocol isn't useful for anything - the routers know which link a link
level multicast belongs on (the link it is sent on, and nothing else),
so no IP level protocol is needed for this particular case.   But the
link level protocol still is, and as the link level protocol is using
the same packet formats as the IP level protocol (the same exact content)
it still needs to get sent.

You can (if you want to) just consider this a link level protocol, with
a strange packet format - but it is required for the switches to be able
to do some kind of sane multicast filtering.   And given that the
particular multicast packets are ones which usually should go nowhere,
it really is an advantage to have them filtered, rather than broadcast.

Just send the MLD packets, like the spec says.

   ...and which totally bogus, as such switch cannot utilize the
   information in any significant way.

=> it can use it as for any other multicast group. Don't forget
the layer-2 snooping is a MLD function, NOT a ND one.

   Remember, I'm talking about LINK
   LOCAL MULTICAST groups used in IPv6 NEIGHTBOR DISCOVERY.

=> there is no reason to do a special case for them as the standard
code which handles any multicast works well with them.

   And, as linklocal all-nodes is ALREADY excempted from the MLD,

=> this group is special (for MLD) and more, as all nodes by definition
listen it, it should never be filtered out where there is an IPv6 node.

   what is left is
   *ONLY* the solicited node multicast. I vote that, it too is exempted.
   
=> I vote against.

   When is this joined? ONLY when node configures a NEW id for address,
   so what we are seeing on link, is two back-to-back messages:
   
     1) join solicited node group (MLD), followed by
     2) ND DAD probe
   
   I just can't see any significant use for the (1), even for layer-2
   snooper. The probe alone carries exactly the same information as the
   useless MLD join.

=> the layer-2 snooper has nothing to do with ND, it handles only MLD.
I believe your idea is add a ND snooping in place of the current reuse
of MLD snooping is not good because it will introduce an unneeded exception.

   And whats worse, the switch will increase the
   probability of DAD "failing to do its suff"... (if it decides not to
   forward the DAD to all links based on some stale soft state -- it
   definetly cannot start querying at this point).
   
=> I don't buy this point.

   Additionally, when ND is protected by IPSEC, the switch needs to do
   the IPSEC also.
   
=> so MLD snooping is better?

   >    - illogical definition: you cannot join solicited nodes multicast

   Yes, with "::" source address. Kinky.. :)
   
=> I can't see a problem with the "::" source address in this case
and for the layer-2 snooper the IPv6 source address is not useful.

   Then it cannot send queries, and it's knowledge about solicited node
   groups is totally "soft", practically useless (unless it snoops other
   ND traffic, in which case it doesn't need MLD at all for those).
   
=> actual experience (i.e., when a switch is not ultra cheap, it
supports layer-2 snooping for multicast pruning) shows you are wrong.

   Where did I say "multicast sucks". I definitely like multicast, I'm
   just talking about these link local groups here, and specifically
   about ND discovery part of it.

=> if you like multicast why you want to do a very special case for ND
when the IGMP/MLD snooping works well? I don't understand...

PS: this discussion should not be in the mobile ip list: the magma list
seems far better.

LCoA...
The MAP relays all packets to the MN including the IKE packets...as a result
the SA is e2e i.e.
between the MN and the CN (the MAP is not involved there)....
So i don't see any problem here...
cheers,

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.


	Title		: Architectural Framework for Localized Mobility 
                          Management
	Author(s)	: B. Sarikaya
	Filename	: draft-sarikaya-mobileip-lmmframework-00.txt
	Pages		: 10
	Date		: 2002-9-3
	
This document defines an architectural framework for localized 
mobility management (LMM) in Mobile IPv4 and Mobile IPv6. LMM 
requires new architectural entities to be added to the architectures 
of Mobile IPv4 and v6. Also the availability of localized mobility 
management must be advertised by the localized mobility agents. The 
document defines these entities and their interactions with the 
existing entities and changes required to router/agent advertisements. 
The document also identifies a number of open issues whose resolution 
is crucial to the standardization of LMM protocols.

=> This sounds different. The security issue with Extended
mode was that it is something like an FA, sharing a single
address between multiple nodes. This does not work in the 
"new MIPv6" with RR. The change is possible by making it 
have one address per MN.

=> For several reasons (one of them is absolute simplicity)
I would keep the LMM requirements as it is for security. 
We don't _need_ to not make it e2e and it certainly won't
make things more secure, so I don't see why it shouldn't
remanin e2e.

=> This is not the security problem in Extended mode. In 
fact we never had this problem until RR was added to the 
spec. The problem is using a single address for multiple 
nodes (like an FA). I think you can simply solve it by
having 1:1 mapping of RCoA to LCoA. You can still decapsulate
packets at the MAP though, this is a separate issue and 
does not cause problems, unless AH tunnel mode is used, in which
cases you can't decapsulate the packet in the MAP.

=> I don't think there is an issue with a MN trusting 
a MAP to route its packets. Or to phrase this better, I
think that mobile nodes implicitly trust routers in the 
visited network to forward their traffic, if they don't
then they would have to choose another network.

The issue here is to authenticate the agent, which 
can be done with IPsec. I'm looking at RR as an option
also (a more plug n play option), any comments are welcome. 

Of course CGAs would do the job almost perfectly here,
but we should really add non-standard stuff in future 
when it becomes standard.

Hi Greg,

 some comments in line..

ok..but the defence of the RCoA from the "remote" HA function in the LMM
agent would create a nested tunnel..right? If RO capability is not
active at the real HA that implies a permanent nested (double) tunnel.
Isn't that fattening up the header overheads..?

I thought we agreed at some point that packets sent out by the MN are
_NOT_ routed through the LMM agent, I thought we said that a requirement
is that dynamic routing would prevail...at the very least for the return
path between the MN-CN.

i.e. there is no need for a reverse tunnel between the MN and the LMM
agent.

Has that changed???

That assumes that ingress filtering is not happening on these access
networks. How is the MN going to know that there is not ingress
filtering so as not use the RCoA as the source address? Even more how
would it know that there is not ingress filtering so as not to require
the reverse tunnel??

well if a full blown "visited" Home Agent resumes the role of the LMM
agent, then the remote Home Agent MUST not offer route optimisation if
availability of LMM capability is to be effected. In such case, only the
"root" Home Agent (i.e. the one on the home net) may offer RO

The _real_ address of the MN, is and will always be the on-link care of
address. Now you suggest you may want to abstract that address with a
RCoA obtained from the prefix of the LMM agent sitting on the edge of
the defined net domain. This RCoA is further abstracted by the home
address of the MN..


So for every on-link CoA an RCoA must exist plus the tunnel from the
defence of the RCoA (local to the LMM agent) towards that on-link CoA.
That means that for a million subscribers you are going to need three
million addresses for the LMM function...(home,RCoA, LCoA) ...is that
acceptable?

=> The first and third addresses above are not a requirement
of the LMM function although they are used by it and by the
MIPv6 base spec. Only RCoA is required by LMM
as an addition to the existing MIPv6. So for a million
subscribers, LMM requires additional million addresses.

Folks,
  I volunteered to write a draft on an architectural framework for LMM. 
It has just been announced on the list.
  This document comes in between the requirements draft that Carl is 
editing and any solutions that will be adopted. Whenever a new protocol 
requires new entities in the network (certainly against the end-to-end 
principle of the Internet), WGs must define not only the requirements 
but also the architecture before any protocol selection is made. My 
draft aims at filling this gap on LMM.
  I'll be happy to entertain any questions and also to edit the document 
using any text provided, omments  made, new ideas emerged, etc.
  No contributions will go unnoticed, they will all be accounted for.

Regards,

-- 
Behcet

Would it be useful to publish some "interim versions" (assuming "accepted 
changes" have already been edited in) -- that would make reviewing much 
easier especially for folks who haven't been paying that close attention?

Jari,

Can you close this issue since I see no arguments against alternative a?
The proposed text (below) looks sufficient for the spec.

OK, any option that allows authentiation of the agent is fine.

The MN only needs to do RO once when it starts the converstation with the CN,
because the MAP stays fixed. RR should work because the packets are tunneled
from the MAP to the MN.

I don't think this can work if there is ingress filtering on the access router.
The source address on the packet issuing from the MN must be the RCoA. So the MN
would have to tunnel back through the MAP.

Yes.

I'm not sure I follow your reasoning. Why would there need to be more than one
RCoA per mobile node?

Hi All,

The update to IGMPv3/MLDv2 that Francis mentioned is being
developed by the magma WG.  So, it would probably be 
most productive to move the discussion of how/if to join
link-local multicast groups to the magma list.

Thanks,
Margaret

So what happens if AH tunnel mode is used?

=> We can't decapsulate the packets in the MAP
(assuming they are coming from the HA). 
Of course this discussion assumes that no RO is used
because if it is, then the MAP processes the RH and 
tunnels to the MN, no decapsulation is needed.

Are you proposing that the MAP participate in the routing security
association?

=> I wasn't proposing that although there is no reason for 
not doing it. What I was saying is that the MN
should implicitly trust the MAP _with_forwarding_packets, 
just like it trusts other routers without having 
any security relationship with them.

Extended Mode HMIPv6 dispenses with the double tunnel.
Unfortunately there are some issues with CN signalling (CoT)
and ESP tunneled IP packets.

(For Basic Mode)
Certainly the overhead is something which must be considered
for real applications as it lowers the effective MTU.
I'm not sure how much this will affect the use of HMIP

It is interesting to note that other methods of handover
smoothing in mobileip (BETH, most of the FH drafts, MIPv6
signalling to previous AR) all employ double tunnels for non RO
packets.

Most of the other tunnelling mechanisms can be ignored in networks
which combine HMIPv6 with FH or vanilla MIPv6.

There is only one point where reverse tunnels may be needed.
That is if it is not possible for the MN to send a CoT to the
CN using the RCoA as source address (due to ingress filtering).

In this case it will be necessary to reverse tunnel that packet.

(the MAP advertisement has no I or P bit in the MAP option).

I guess this will need some additional specification in HMIPv6

The MAP Advertisements indicate whether or not the RCoA MAY or MUST
be used as a source address to CNs. (I and P bits in the HMIPv6 spec).

This is up to the MAP and ARs to advertise correctly, based on the
configuration of the network.

I'm not sure what you mean here.

The MN is in charge of what RO is done. a HA just
tunnels packets.

A MAP just tunnels RO'ed packets or double encapsulates
already tunnelled packets (maybe not the best).

If what you mean is that we RO to exclude the Local HA/MAP/RCoA,
instead going to the LCoA, then, certainly, there is no LMM.

Well that's mobile-ip for you ;)

I meant "real" as what you tell everyone else to route to.
the abstraction is required if you want the privacy and
limitation of signalling.

If you want to have an ongoing conversation while moving networks,
then the HoA is needed.

If you want to reduce the amount of signalling to HA/CNs,
you have to provide some abstract target for them to fire packets
at.

AFAIK that's LMM.

I think so.  Even if one MAP handles all those nodes, they will all
still fit into the one /64 network of RCoAs.

The LCoA and the HoA are the cost of doing MIPv6.

[about HMIPv6 Extended Mode]
> 
> 
> So what happens if AH tunnel mode is used?


In the situiation where AH and ESP are being used (say
from the HA to the MN for binding signalling), it would
be necessary to add a routing header outside the ESP or AH
header to gauarantee that the XMAP (Extended MAP) can
understand the packet.

Note that this requirement is on the HA, which is
essentially unaware that an LMM is being used, and so is
a new requirement in MIPv6 (or a showstopper for current
extended mode ???).

There already is a requirement to tunnel site-local
packets with a routing header for extended mode.

Having it participate in the routing security association is fine, just we need
to make sure that this is a MUST in the spec.

The other alternative is for the MAP to not decapsulate, as Hesham suggested.
This requires some way for the MAP to know that an AH tunnel is in place.

Greg,

I think this is good summary. The key point is that the HMIP RCoA is the MNs
address and not the LCoA. Nested MIP makes the same decision and
specifically allows the RCoA to be used as a local home address for local
access traffic (which is why I called it an RoA (cf HoA) rather than an
RCoA), and the RMA in basic Nested is then simply a HA.

As an aside, given the many similarities between HMIP and NestedMIPv6
architecture it might be worth combining these. I'll try to document the
differences in requirements, architecture and features between the two to
see if this is practical, and then have some discussions with Hesham on this
if he is supportive..

Alan.

Hi Theo,

It's certainly a very important issue
(e-to-e security association).  I'll try to indicate how
I see things, especially regarding the security aspects.

How I see the issue with HMIPv6 Basic is that there is an address at
the MAP, which is delegated to the MN through a security association
and a binding with the MAP. The LMM agent (MAP) then treats the
address specially, but doesn't interfere with packets sent and received 
from this address.

All packets bound for this address are proxy neighbour discovered,
and sent on, just in the same way that a home agent in MIPv6 does.
No packets are received and processed by the LMM agent as its own.
It's a router with host-specific dynamic tunnels to the MN's LCoA.

The idea is that the address is not the MAP's, it's the MN's, but
managed by the MAP.

Reverse tunnelling can be provided as an advertised service by the MAP.
If there is such a binding/SA pair with the MN, it can send packets
with the RCoA as source address, in order to get around ingress
filtering.

This just means that the packets are sent
[Src:LCoA,Dest:MAP,Payload[Src:RCoA,Dest:CN,Payload:Y]]

and decapsulated by the MAP (which explicitly allows this
type of tunnel).

the MAP, which has done a proxy DAD for the RCoA on its link
knows that it may send the de-encapsulated packet out onto the
link.

the packet looks like:

[Src:RCoA,Dest:CN,Payload:Y]

This is equivalent of MIPv6 reverse tunnelled services provided by
HA's, if no route optimization is used.

on access networks where MN's may use the RCoA as a packet source
address, location privacy is accomplished trivially by the MN.

As you see, in neither the CN->MN nor the MN->CN direction does
the LMM agent treat the packets as it's own. It is a dynamic tunnel
server, which uses bindings to determine

I'd say that the security and privacy provided by tunneling
has actually been removed through the route optimization
interactions in MIPv6.  The ability of the MN to select an
LMM agent which can provide these services (based on the
removal of the RO requirements in the access network) are
a re-instatement of those capabilities.

In those situations where the CN doesn't need RO capabilities
in MIPv6, the same services can be provided with a HA.
In every case, the HA does not interfere with any communications
between the MN and CN, except to provide dynamic tunnels for a home
address (which is the real address of the node).

 From my point of view, in HMIPv6, the RCoA is the real address
of the MN.  The LCoA is just an address it found on the visited
network.

None of these involve tunneling over the air though. There has been speculation
that header compression can remove the overhead, but I haven't seen a definitive

Why is this restricted to the CoT? Won't the MN have to put the RCoA on all
packets? Otherwise, the CN won't have the right source address.

=> This sounds different. The security issue with Extended
mode was that it is something like an FA, sharing a single
address between multiple nodes. This does not work in the 
"new MIPv6" with RR. The change is possible by making it 
have one address per MN.

=> For several reasons (one of them is absolute simplicity)
I would keep the LMM requirements as it is for security. 
We don't _need_ to not make it e2e and it certainly won't
make things more secure, so I don't see why it shouldn't
remanin e2e. 

AWO> Nested doesn't need this slackening off so I am also happy to leave as
is, I just felt that we maybe were being overly cautious here when I am sure
their are deployment situations in which a chain of trust is preferred.
Happy to drop though..

So the chain of trust as a supplement to e2e is fine in your book but not as
a replacement yes ?

I think we want to maintain end-to-end security for MIPv6. It is necessary
for
the IPsec SA used to secure binding update traffic, for example.

The issue is the extra tunnel overhead, especially on the wireless link,
though
also on any T1 links from the aggregation router to the access router.
Header
compression can help, but there are issues on handoff.

Couple of interesting points here Theo,

1) On the ingress filtering point with the RCoA/RoA as a source address, you
have to reverse tunnel back to the LMM (MAP/RMA) because I believe that
there is somewhere in the IPv6 architecture an assumption that the source
address MUST always be toplogically correct.

I personally feel this is overly harsh and topologically incorrect addresses
should be allowed both to give us efficient multicast forwarding on foreign
networks, and to avoid this mandatory reverse-tunnelling via regional
elements. I have a draft on how this can be done that is about to appear. 


2) The Nested tunnelling and multiple addresses in HMIP and Nested MIP
represent a result of looking at a range of requirements and determining
that these overheads represent the best overall solution. Alternative
approachs to LMM end require much nastier or costly side-effects I can
assure you, and doing nothing is not an option commercially. Additional
tunnelling through the core network is not a big issue to operators and
compression can be used over the expensive access links. The LCoA allocation
is a non-issue, and the fact that a MN has one or more HoAs at third party
providers is a business issue. The RCoA/RoA is providing local internet
access in the visited domain as well as facilitating forwarding of remote
access traffic from the third party HAs whilst enabling the third party HAs
to be isolated from the rapid mobility dynamics in the visited domain. This
is the only address that is mandated which represents a real cost to the
operator..the HoAs are optional (0 to M in Nested) and related to the
commercial service needs of the user.

Hi Greg,

 some comments in line..

ok..but the defence of the RCoA from the "remote" HA function in the LMM
agent would create a nested tunnel..right? If RO capability is not
active at the real HA that implies a permanent nested (double) tunnel.
Isn't that fattening up the header overheads..?

I thought we agreed at some point that packets sent out by the MN are
_NOT_ routed through the LMM agent, I thought we said that a requirement
is that dynamic routing would prevail...at the very least for the return
path between the MN-CN.

i.e. there is no need for a reverse tunnel between the MN and the LMM
agent.

Has that changed???

That assumes that ingress filtering is not happening on these access
networks. How is the MN going to know that there is not ingress
filtering so as not use the RCoA as the source address? Even more how
would it know that there is not ingress filtering so as not to require
the reverse tunnel??

well if a full blown "visited" Home Agent resumes the role of the LMM
agent, then the remote Home Agent MUST not offer route optimisation if
availability of LMM capability is to be effected. In such case, only the
"root" Home Agent (i.e. the one on the home net) may offer RO
capabilities.

The _real_ address of the MN, is and will always be the on-link care of
address. Now you suggest you may want to abstract that address with a
RCoA obtained from the prefix of the LMM agent sitting on the edge of
the defined net domain. This RCoA is further abstracted by the home
address of the MN..


So for every on-link CoA an RCoA must exist plus the tunnel from the
defence of the RCoA (local to the LMM agent) towards that on-link CoA.
That means that for a million subscribers you are going to need three
million addresses for the LMM function...(home,RCoA, LCoA) ...is that
acceptable?

Hesham,

I would state it this way. 

For a million customers you need a million RCoA/RoA addresses so they get
local access service in the visited domain. The existance of third party HAs
and associated HoAs with which the MN is roaming, and with which the MNnis
undertaking remote access is a separate issue. A MN could have 0 to M such
active HoAs requiring additional addresses justified by the associated
roaming revenues.

Nested is specifically designed to enable this clean separation and to
support the aggregation of multiple HoAs during hand-off..Maybe HMIP makes
different assumptions here ?

Alan.

=> The first and third addresses above are not a requirement
of the LMM function although they are used by it and by the
MIPv6 base spec. Only RCoA is required by LMM
as an addition to the existing MIPv6. So for a million
subscribers, LMM requires additional million addresses.

Hi James,

In extended Mode with ESP, this will not work,
since it needs to see the ESP payload (the
encapsulated IPv6 packet), which is encrypted.

The encapsulating IPv6 packet only contains
the RCoA, which as the MAP's address, is not unique,
and cannot be used to match any MN's Binding.

James,

One of the reasons that future versions of Nested (v4 or v6) have the
registration routed via the LMM agent (the RMA) is so that the additional
features requested by the MN are known to that box. This is critical for a
range of commercially important reasons (service control, efficiency,
policy) and also facilitates hand-off of the LMM agent (regional hand-off). 

This then requires a chain of trust through MN-RMA-HA plus (as per the other
thread) the e2e security MN-HA. This would be one way for the use of AH to
be detected if specifically requested or flagged in the MIPv6 signalling.

Alan.

The other alternative is for the MAP to not decapsulate, as Hesham
suggested.
This requires some way for the MAP to know that an AH tunnel is in place.

Hi James,

the RCoA doesn't go on all packets sent from the
MN, the Home Address destination option is.

the Binding which the CN has takes care of the
sending to the RCoA.

Of course the RCoA must be sent as an Alt-CoA in
BU packets which use the LCoA as source.

MIPV6 handover smoothing does require double tunnelling
over the air interface.  As you say though, FMIPv6
doesn't (but I'm not sure what's the future there ?!)

I'm not relying on header compression though, if
HMIPv6's encapsulation overhead is not a killer,
then the limitation of signalling and location privacy
are still valuable (the same may be said for BETH, too).

Hesham's definitely the person to talk to on that

In my guess the advantages wouldn't be in MIPv6,
but in NEMOs.  Would it be better to talk about
it over there?

Greg,

May well be, but without doing the comparative work I think HMIPv6 might not
provide clean support for multiple HoAs per MN, or local access independent
of the presence of a global HA. There are many subtleties in there wrt AAA
service control and scalability.

But as I said I need to do the work and don't weant to upset Hesham et al
with the kind of wild, uninformed,  off the cuff statements that I just made
;-)

Alan

Sorry about the long cross post [NEMO/monet,Mobile IP].

I think this idea is relevant to both lists.
If you have responses only relevant to one,
please edit the destination.

I've been looking at a number of situations where
e-2-e security associations have to be created
for nodes which do not have a unique care of address.


What I mean by this is that there is a single node
attached to the internet, which has been granted
trust by an MN to receive packets on its behalf, and
forward them on to the MN at another address.

This agent provides a single IP address for some or
all of the MNs which it services.

This is the case in certain Localized Mobility Managent
(LMM) systems.
HMIPv6 Extended Mode and also NEMO Mobile
Routers may be particularly affected.

In these systems end-to-end communication is typically
provided by ensuring that all packets to the MN are
tunnelled via the HA or received from CN's with Type 2
Routing Headers.  In certain situations, some
reverse tunnelling from the MN to the agent is
allowed in order that  the MN may send packets from
the agent's address.

Therefore in most cases, packets can be received
at the MN, which can be used for generating an
end-to-end SA or other trust mechanism.

The issue which occurs is that when an MN attempts
to perform a CoTI/CoT exchange, even if the MN can
send the CoTI message from the Agent's address,
there is no information which may be used by the
agent to send the responding CoT message to the MN,
since the CoT packet has only a destination IP
address, which is the shared CoA address at the LMM
agent.

I think that this is principly because the CoTI
message doesn't have a Home Address option, in order
to guarantee that the CoA which is indicated in the
message is correctly interpreted by the CN.

Please indicate if you know of another reason for this.

In any case, if the CN was able to send the response
CoT packet with an RH2 containing the Home Address of
the MN,it would allow the packet to be received
for the MN at an intervening agent, and forwarded or
tunnelled to the MN.

MN's receiving a CoT directly or from such an agent may
substitute the Home Address in the RH2 for the address
to which the packet was sent (dependent on implementation),
but it would be easy to identify the associated CoTI and
CoA by use of the CoT Cookie sent in the CoTI and CoT
(which the MN will track).

It is a current requirement that MNs receiving
RH2 not process the packet unless it owns the address
contained in it.  In the case of the agents mentioned,
the association they have with the MN would be
sufficient to decide whether to send the packet to
the MN.

In this fashion, I don't think there is a significant
security issue in the reception of such packets at an
MN or LMM agent.

Please tell me if you see this to be incorrect.

On the CN, if it were made aware of the requirement to
send the RH2, there would be no persistent state kept
regarding the home address which the packet is sent.
It could easily be copied from a received CoTI and
forgotten about.

If the Home address was sent in a (new) routing address
mobility option, the CN could ignore it, and send a
standard CoT  to the CoA.  This may break the CoA
processing  on the LMM agent though, since it may not
find  a destination node (and will pass up the stack to
be processed by the LMM agent).

Another alternative is to use a mobility header type
which explicitly supports CoTI with destination. Any
system understanding the header would have to understand
the routing address mobility option.

I'm probably thinking that the second idea is better,
since ICMPv6 error messages could be generated to the
CoA (at the LMM agent), which would act similarly to
the "packet too big" handling which already exists
for tunnels, being sent back to the originating MN.

Other than that, I don't see any significant differences
with RR in MIPv6 D18 for the MN or CN, nor can I see any
significant security implications other than those
which RR is susceptible to.

Once again, please tell me if you see this differently.

If the mechanism is valid, then it would be
straightforward to for CN's to validate the
(Shared) CoA of MN's for the purpose of route
optimization in Local Mobility Managed networks,
and NEMOs using end-to-end Return Routability tests.

what I mean is that there are two route optimisations that can be
effected since we have two home agents on a per handoff transition
basis:

1) the route optimisation that eliminates the need of going through the
home HA. Such optimisation does not stop you from going to the visited
HA.
2) the route optimisation that eliminates the need of going through the
visited HA. That effectively stops availability of the LMM capability on
the visited domain (ok optimal placement of the LMM agent would bring
the traffic through it anyway..I am talking about the random placement
of LMM)

:)...well the abstraction is happening for MIP on a per IP handoff
transition. The RCoA case happens on a per inter-domain IP handoff
transition. So it is not MIP but localised MIP ;)

true and agreed.

agreed, I was observing the case of "fat" packets... (nested tunnels -
the bio term :) 
I think this is going to be _the_ issue in next generation of IP

yes, I realised that from the start of the discussion. I guess it is an
isolated case for ingress filtering, for which I don't see any reason to
make life more complex..by trying to avoid it..

because in the pure sense of the HA function (the remote one) and in
basic mode you must provide a different RCoA to the MN so that you can
establish the tunnel transparently...otherwise you must consult your
host route table and then route the packet to the correct tunnel, which
to me seems extra processing on the LMM agent. This is at least the
understanding that I got so far.., i.e. that with a proxy neighbour
advert the MN configures a RCoA topoligally correct on the abstract
(defended) net of the LMM agent (local HA function), the address is then
defended (i.e must be unique mapping in the neighbour cache and then
forwards it to the right tunnel..

am I wrong ?

Hi Greg:

Seems that the RR test is broken for your cases since it's meant to ensure that
the 2 addresses are collocated. I started a discussion on MIP and one on Nemo on
the subject.

From your proposal, I just wonder who sends the CoTi in the first place. If
that's the MN, then it must know the (LMM|MR) CoA, which implies added control
traffic and an invalid source address that the (LMM|MR) should not let through.
On the other hand, if the RR test is performed between the (LMM|MR) and the CN,
the (LMM|MR) should issue the HoTi and keep the response HoT for itself though
it's sent to the MN Home Address. Bad as it is, it may not work at all in Nemo
multi-homing.

In the other hand, what's the use of the CoT, and do we need the CareOf address
as part of the e2e SA at all? For MIP, this causes the RR test to be performed
each time the MN changes attachment and delays the bind process. For Nemo, it
prevents the RR test compatibility, and places RO in a hazardous position.
Jari's answer was a case of bombing attack that seems theoretically possible.
Please refer to the exchange on july 1st 2002, on the "[mobile-ip] CoT " thread.
I'm not convinced yet whether preventing that bombing attack is worth delaying
all valid attachments.

On another thread, I tried to introduce a negotiation at RR test time. Please
refer to the exchange on july 1st 2002,  on the "[mobile-ip] Re: summary of HAO,
BE processing discussion" thread. If CoT becomes optional, this is an other case
where the negotiation capability could be useful.

BTW, If the CoA is not part of the shared secret between the MN and the CN, then
the MN can use any of the multiple CoA you're talking about without wondering
the SA it should use. This is important if the MN does not know the MR's CoA,
which may vary over time...

What do you think?

Pascal

Subject: [monet] [monet][mobile-ip] Supporting multiple Nodes behind one CoA
with CoTI/CoT

Sorry about the long cross post [NEMO/monet,Mobile IP].

I think this idea is relevant to both lists.
If you have responses only relevant to one,
please edit the destination.

I've been looking at a number of situations where
e-2-e security associations have to be created
for nodes which do not have a unique care of address.


What I mean by this is that there is a single node
attached to the internet, which has been granted
trust by an MN to receive packets on its behalf, and
forward them on to the MN at another address.

This agent provides a single IP address for some or
all of the MNs which it services.

This is the case in certain Localized Mobility Managent
(LMM) systems.
HMIPv6 Extended Mode and also NEMO Mobile
Routers may be particularly affected.

In these systems end-to-end communication is typically
provided by ensuring that all packets to the MN are
tunnelled via the HA or received from CN's with Type 2
Routing Headers.  In certain situations, some
reverse tunnelling from the MN to the agent is
allowed in order that  the MN may send packets from
the agent's address.

Therefore in most cases, packets can be received
at the MN, which can be used for generating an
end-to-end SA or other trust mechanism.

The issue which occurs is that when an MN attempts
to perform a CoTI/CoT exchange, even if the MN can
send the CoTI message from the Agent's address,
there is no information which may be used by the
agent to send the responding CoT message to the MN,
since the CoT packet has only a destination IP
address, which is the shared CoA address at the LMM
agent.

I think that this is principly because the CoTI
message doesn't have a Home Address option, in order
to guarantee that the CoA which is indicated in the
message is correctly interpreted by the CN.

Please indicate if you know of another reason for this.

In any case, if the CN was able to send the response
CoT packet with an RH2 containing the Home Address of
the MN,it would allow the packet to be received
for the MN at an intervening agent, and forwarded or
tunnelled to the MN.

MN's receiving a CoT directly or from such an agent may
substitute the Home Address in the RH2 for the address
to which the packet was sent (dependent on implementation),
but it would be easy to identify the associated CoTI and
CoA by use of the CoT Cookie sent in the CoTI and CoT
(which the MN will track).

It is a current requirement that MNs receiving
RH2 not process the packet unless it owns the address
contained in it.  In the case of the agents mentioned,
the association they have with the MN would be
sufficient to decide whether to send the packet to
the MN.

In this fashion, I don't think there is a significant
security issue in the reception of such packets at an
MN or LMM agent.

Please tell me if you see this to be incorrect.

On the CN, if it were made aware of the requirement to
send the RH2, there would be no persistent state kept
regarding the home address which the packet is sent.
It could easily be copied from a received CoTI and
forgotten about.

If the Home address was sent in a (new) routing address
mobility option, the CN could ignore it, and send a
standard CoT  to the CoA.  This may break the CoA
processing  on the LMM agent though, since it may not
find  a destination node (and will pass up the stack to
be processed by the LMM agent).

Another alternative is to use a mobility header type
which explicitly supports CoTI with destination. Any
system understanding the header would have to understand
the routing address mobility option.

I'm probably thinking that the second idea is better,
since ICMPv6 error messages could be generated to the
CoA (at the LMM agent), which would act similarly to
the "packet too big" handling which already exists
for tunnels, being sent back to the originating MN.

Other than that, I don't see any significant differences
with RR in MIPv6 D18 for the MN or CN, nor can I see any
significant security implications other than those
which RR is susceptible to.

Once again, please tell me if you see this differently.

If the mechanism is valid, then it would be
straightforward to for CN's to validate the
(Shared) CoA of MN's for the purpose of route
optimization in Local Mobility Managed networks,
and NEMOs using end-to-end Return Routability tests.

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		: The Definitions of Managed Objects for IP Mobility 
                          Support using SMIv2, revised
	Author(s)	: R. Rathi
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mobileip-rfc2006bis-01.txt
	Pages		: 85
	Date		: 2002-9-4
	
This memo defines the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with
network management protocols in TCP/IP-based internets.  In
particular, it describes managed objects used for managing the Mobile
Node, Foreign Agent and Home Agent of the Mobile IP Protocol.
This memo is intended to update and possibly obsolete RFC 2006,
however, it is designed to be backward compatible.

Issue 88 (http://www.piuha.net/~jarkko/publications/mipv6/issues/issue88.txt)
was about the need to lower one of the RFC 2461 constants, MIN_DELAY_BETWEEN_RAS
because otherwise we couldn't set the router advertisement interval
(MinRtrAdvInterval) default low enough. So, we agreed that this needs to be
done.

However, Brett has brought up an additional complication. RFC 2461 states:

    "... consecutive Router Advertisements
    sent to the all-nodes multicast address MUST be rate limited to no
    more than one advertisement every MIN_DELAY_BETWEEN_RAS seconds."

This applies to both solicited and unsolicited RAs. In order
to make MinRtrAdvInterval low enough, we must lower MIN_DELAY_BETWEEN_RAS
as low as well. However, as a side effect of this we apparently will
make it possible for also solicited RAs to be generated more often.

Assume that the administrator has not followed the recommended
values (say, due to the link characteristics) and is using a higher
value for MinRtrAdvInterval. Now, since MIN_DELAY_BETWEEN_RAS
is a constant, not a configuration variable, a host that generates
many RSes will be able to generate an RA every 0.05 seconds.

Is this a problem or not? We have the following options:

(1) Just lower the MIN_DELAY_BETWEEN_RAS constant and suffer
     the possibility that hosts induce too many RAs even if the
     config vars are set high.

(2) Make MIN_DELAY_BETWEEN_RAS also configurable (or invent a
     new configuration variable). This ensures that current
     characteristics of RAs can be kept by correct configuration.
     However, a constant needs to change to a configurable variable
     and this looks a bit funny specification-wise ;-)

Opinions?

This sounds a bit like the NAT device problem: it is
easy to pass a packet through and change the addresses,
but how do know where to route the incoming response
packet? Traditionally, IPv4 identifier field, TCP/UDP
port numbers, etc. have been used to accomplish this.

In your model, is it possible for the MN to use its
CoA directly without HAO, e.g. for a short duration
DNS query or an ICMP ping? If yes, how will the MR/LMM
route back the packets?

But yes, HAO could be used as an indicator for routing
the response to the right MN. Other alternatives include
the mobile cookie, but it would have to be a dynamically
cached item.

I think your analysis is more or less correct. Note
that we in general don't allow HAOs to appear in
communications to the CN until a binding is established --
except for the Binding Update which is handled as a special
case. It would be possible to make a similar exception
for the CoT message as well, if desired.

Also, the current independence between HoT and CoT makes
it possible to reuse one CoT response for multiple home
addresses. If adding the HAO to CoT would also change the
rules for calculating the cookies, then this would change.

This alternative may not work unless the CN knows somehow
that it must copy the new option back to the answer.

This would work.

Right, and getting the ICMP is similar to finding a
too old IPv6 node that doesn't support even basic RO
yet.

Pascal made some good questions on who is going to send
the CoT and how this is made possible in the practical
sense. I don't have ideas on how to make it work when the
MR/LMM is the sender and multihoming is in involved. If the
MN sends the packet, then I suppose it can use a local
address under the MR/LMM, and then MR/LMM changes that
to the shared CoA?

I think the trust relationship between a MAP and a host must be the same as
between any router in the foreign domain and the host.

It is not a replacement for the e2e trust relationship with the home agent, nor
would I characterize it as a chain of trust, since it does not extend back to
the home agent in any way. Or did you have something else in mind?

There is, of course, an issue about how the host verifies the trust relationship
with the routers in the foreign domain in the first place. This is currently an
open issue that the SEND BOF addressed. But assuming a mechanism for that, the
trust relationship with the MAP can derive in some way from the trust
relationship with the routers, perhaps using the same mechanism but requiring
additional steps (obtaining a certificate or key for the MAP through the trusted
access router, etc.).

I'm sure this will need to be spelled out, in some amount of detail, in the spec
before it will get IESG approval, but the important point now is that we can
achieve agreement on what the general framework is for security between the MAP
and the host, so we can fill in the details.

Alan,

I don't see the need for establishing security between the HA and the RMA
specifically for routing. Internet routing is logically divided into two
domains, interior and exterior. Any security for exterior routing is established
between the border routers. The security within the domain and, by extention,
between the border routers and the routers within the domain, is up to the
administrative entity controlling that domain. I don't think it would be wise to
require that security to have to be extended by reaching out into the center of
another administrative domain, so to speak, where the HA is located. The
logistical difficultities, whether AAA or PKI is used, of arranging this
(business requirements, etc.) and contractually arranging for what the
consequences are of a compromise, are too complex. Routing security should be
strictly up to the administrative entity controlling the domain, and not open to
anyone else.

The other applications you've brought up (service control, efficiency (?)
policy, regional handoff (?)) can be dealt with separately.

If we intend to include extended mode into the base spec, and if the NestedMIPv6
work would fold into extended mode, then we should discuss it here.

I think there are a number of issues with extended mode that we need to resolve,
and I assume that any fold-in of NestedMIPv6 would either resolve them or not,
and may perhaps generate more. Would it make sense to maybe spend a little time
seeing if we can resolve them, after Alan and Hesham have had time to chat, then
perhaps make a decision, based on the discussion, whether to keep extended mode
in the base spec or separate it into a different spec?

This would be a way to accelerate progress on basic mode, assuming we have
agreement that the issues with basic mode have been addressed. Also, if people
think that the issues with basic mode haven't been addressed, then perhaps we
could focus on them?

Well, I believe an architecture document is in order here, without it 
how can we proceed in LMM?
For this there is one in table, which states several architectural 
issues without going into protocol details.

Greg,

In extended Mode with ESP, this will not work,
since it needs to see the ESP payload (the
encapsulated IPv6 packet), which is encrypted.

=> I'm not sure what you mean, if the MAP hits
the ESP/AH header then it knows to not touch the packet
and encapsulate it as is. I prefer your alternative
though (adding a routing header) because I
think it's cleaner. 
So what do others think? we have two options:

1. My initial suggestion (the dirty way) in which
the MAP scans through headers to see if an IPsec
header exists.

2. Require the HA to add a RH to all packets going 
through an IPsec tunnel to the MN. 

1) has the advantage of working without adding 
more requirements on the HA. 2) has the advantage of 
less scanning into the daisy chain for each packet.

Thoughts? 

Hesham

Behcet,

There have been some architectural issues raised by Phil on the basic idea of
routing proxies. I briefly brought up this issue with the IAB earlier this year,
and got back only one comment, "not a problem", but there was not an extensive
discussion.

In effect, the idea of routing proxies has already been implicitly accepted with
the Home Agent in both MIPv4 and MIPv6, and with the Foreign Agent, in MIPv4.
The MIPv6 design has attempted to get rid of the latter, so perhaps there is an
issue with re-introducing routing proxies with LMM.

If there is an issue, then I think the WG chairs and ADs should figure out some
way to raise it with the IESG, involving the IAB if necessary, to address it.

I don't think we need a draft, specific to HMIPv6, to address it. If there is a
requirement for a draft, then it should address the architectural implications
of routing proxies in general.

            jak

I think the trust relationship between a MAP and a host must be the same
as
between any router in the foreign domain and the host.

It is not a replacement for the e2e trust relationship with the home
agent, nor
would I characterize it as a chain of trust, since it does not extend
back to
the home agent in any way. Or did you have something else in mind?

There is, of course, an issue about how the host verifies the trust
relationship
with the routers in the foreign domain in the first place. This is
currently an
open issue that the SEND BOF addressed. But assuming a mechanism for
that, the
trust relationship with the MAP can derive in some way from the trust
relationship with the routers, perhaps using the same mechanism but
requiring
additional steps (obtaining a certificate or key for the MAP through the
trusted
access router, etc.).

=> Exactly.

I'm sure this will need to be spelled out, in some amount of detail, in
the spec
before it will get IESG approval, but the important point now is that we
can
achieve agreement on what the general framework is for security between
the MAP
and the host, so we can fill in the details.

=> Agreed.

If we intend to include extended mode into the base spec, and if the
NestedMIPv6
work would fold into extended mode, then we should discuss it here.

I think there are a number of issues with extended mode that we need to
resolve,
and I assume that any fold-in of NestedMIPv6 would either resolve them
or not,
and may perhaps generate more. Would it make sense to maybe spend a
little time
seeing if we can resolve them, after Alan and Hesham have had time to
chat, then
perhaps make a decision, based on the discussion, whether to keep
extended mode
in the base spec or separate it into a different spec?

=> Yes, I think we need to discuss Extended mode's 
future. I was preparing something to send to the list
but didn't want to disrupt the MIPv6 discussions, 
so now I'm trying to catch up :) 
There are a couple of issues that need to be polished 
due to the MIPv6 changes. Let's see if we can address
them, and after that assess whether it makes sense to
keep extended mode at all in the draft.
I'll send a proposal very shortly to the list. 


This would be a way to accelerate progress on basic mode, assuming we
have
agreement that the issues with basic mode have been addressed. Also, if
people
think that the issues with basic mode haven't been addressed, then
perhaps we
could focus on them?

=> I don't want to jumpt the gun but basic mode 
works without any problems at all. All it needs is 
some text about SA establishment between the MN and the 
MAP. No fixes needed IMHO, unless we want to add new
features.

Well, I don't like either option. Option 1) requires the MAP to snoop the
packets, which is a very slow and time consuming operation. Option 2) requires
communication between the HA and the MAP.

But, given the choice, I would go for 1). I think it may be a scalability
problem to design in any dependencies between an HA in a foreign domain and the
MAP. Besides, routers will need to scan headers anyway, so there may be some
hardware to accelerate header snooping that could be applied to a MAP.

Alan,

No need to worry about upsetting me, that's not 
an easy task :). I'll try to save you some work. 

May well be, but without doing the comparative work I think HMIPv6 might
not
provide clean support for multiple HoAs per MN, 

=> That's not a problem in HMIPv6. Let me give you 
an example with Basic mode:
Assume a MN that has HoA_1 - HoA_9
If the MN wants them all directed to the same CoA/RCoA
it sends a single BU (S bit not set) to its HA with a single RCoA. 
If the home addresses belong to different HAs then separate
BUs need to be sent to the respective HAs, but the CoA/RCoA
is still the same. If the MN needs to direct traffic to 
different CoAs then this has to be handled per home address.
The whole process is independent of HMIPv6 because the 
MAP is completely unaware (in the basic mode case) of 
any home addresses.

Also, for more on this, see:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-soliman-mobileip-flow-move-02.txt

or local access
independent
of the presence of a global HA. 

=> Dunno what you mean here.

There are many subtleties in there wrt
AAA
service control and scalability.

=> Same as above.

Hesham

Well, I don't like either option. Option 1) requires the MAP to snoop
the
packets, which is a very slow and time consuming operation. 

=> Sure.

Option 2)
requires
communication between the HA and the MAP.

=> No communication is needed, this is a requirement
on the HA to add a RH whenever sending packets to a 
MN through an IPsec tunnel. 

But, given the choice, I would go for 1). I think it may be a
scalability
problem to design in any dependencies between an HA in a foreign domain
and the
MAP. Besides, routers will need to scan headers anyway, so there may be
some
hardware to accelerate header snooping that could be applied to a MAP.

=> I'm happy with either one and I also don't like 
having to worry about backward compatibility
with "old" (a few months older!) HAs.

But that still means that the RCoA must go on packets where there is no binding
cache entry at the CN. Using the Home Address Option in this case is explicitly
forbidden by the latest drafts of the MIP spec as a security risk. These packets
would have to be tunneled back through the MAP.

No, it does not. None of the FMIPv6 algorithms require any over the air
tunneling.

From a carrier's perspective, any encapsulation overhead on the access link is
unacceptable. We need to verify (and I believe this is stated in the
requirements draft) that this can be removed by header compression, and,
specifically, that handover does not cause a large drop in performance due to
the compression engine needing to be restarted.

Jim,
  How can you say that we do not need an architecture document? Anytime 
a new entity, e.g. LMA as defined in the requirements draft  is added, 
not only requirements but also architecture document needs to be 
developed, e.g. architectural considerations regarding LMAs, not routing 
proxies (I do not know what are these?).
  As a cochair of Seamoby, you should know this more that anybody else. 
For example you added a small section in RFC 3514 for paging. For CT, I 
saw some drafts. So this is the right way to go.
  Unfortunately LMM first followed the old practice of coming up with 
the solution fast, as in MIPv4 and MIPv6. There has been some correction 
and as a result we have the requirements work that Carl Williams is 
editing.
  We need to complete the correction and come up with an architecture draft.

Regards,

RFC 3514 was a mistake. It did not consider paging in the wider context of IP
routing in general, and MIPv6 in particular. If that had been done, paging would
never have been added to the Seamoby charter. I am not going to go into the
details why I believe this, since this mailing list is not the venue for it.

What I am trying to do in this case is learn from my mistakes and recommend to
uplevel the architectural discussion (should the ADs and WG chairs agree there
is a need) so that routing proxies can be considered in the wider context of the
general IP routing architecture.

Personally, I believe that the IETF has already accepted the concept of routing
proxies in the form of the HA and the FA, so the issue of whether there is an
architectural issue is unclear to me, but I believe it is up to the WG chairs
and ADs to make that determination.

Hello,
  There was an error in my previous mail referencing Seamoby work:
 > As a cochair of Seamoby, you should know this more that anybody else. 
For example you >added a small section in RFC 3514 for paging. For CT, I 
saw some drafts. So this is the right >way to go.
I now realized that CT and CAR do not add any new entities, it was only 
paging that proposed new entities as per RFC 3514.
  Koodli's draft  draft-koodli-seamoby-ct-04.txt is entitled:
A Context Transfer Protocol for Seamless Mobility
and NOT

A Context Transfer Framework for Seamless Mobility

as announced. Just looking at the title, I had been mislead. Apologies.
  So, Seamoby's CT and CAR do not seem to need any architecture work.

 
Regards,

Well, this would be useful (and perhaps it should be called -19 then?) but
unfortunately we are not quite there yet with all the edits. I've been
a bit too busy with other things, mostly personal stuff... things should
be improving, however.

The best current source for the latest text is -18 + the issues files which
we are updating to contain text proposals. Issue files are at:
http://www.piuha.net/~jarkko/publications/mipv6/MIPv6-Issues.html
and there's also a new field in the table to indicate whether a text
proposal exists or not.

G'day all,

        As part of an attempt to put together a minimal
specification / implementation of Fast Handovers for IPv6
over 802.11, I've been working on eliminating DAD delays
by using Optimistic DAD.

        There is some precedent for this based on 
draft-koodli-fastv6-00 and comments by Eric Nordmark in
the WG at IETF-54 in Yokohama, however this work is
really intended as a research rather than a standards-
setting effort :-)

        So far I've put together the beginnings of a 
spec and tweaked a Linux kernel to implement these
changes.  In initial tests, the modifications seem to 
be effective.  I've also made some modifications to 
_increase_ the likelihood of collision, in order to 
be able to test these cases.


        The modifications I'm experimenting with are:

* Always using randomized suffixes, as per RFC 3041.
    If there is a collision, pick a new random suffix and
    start again.

* Requiring the node to send unsolicited NAs:
        + When DAD commences, with Override = 0;
        + When DAD completes successfully, with Override = 1.
    This allows communication to start immediately if 
    there is no collision.

* Allowing the node to communicate while Tentative,
    which allows Binding Updates, etc to be sent.

* Allowing the node to respond to NSs while Tentative, but
    requiring that the reply NA Override flag is 0.


        Hopefully these changes allow a very fast handover 
while maintaining interoperation with normal nodes.

        I'm interested to hear your opinions!

It'll be faster, though it'll run the risk of breaking this node's own
communication and another node's communication when things
go bad. If this risk was only affecting the node using this "optimization",
we could say it's this node's choice (i.e., a tradeoff). But when this 
"aggressive" behavior costs some other innocent node its connectivity,
then a node's individual decision won't be sufficient. Maybe it should
be network operator's decision, by allowing/disallowing all nodes use
this optimization at the expense of risking other on-link nodes??

Hi Pascal,

Thanks for the response.
I think I'll have to break up the response
into two threads, one for each group.

As one WG member has indicated, things get complicated
very quickly when NEMO terminology is being used
in mobile-ip.

> From your proposal, I just wonder who sends the CoTi in the
 > first place. If that's the MN, then it must know the

The main goal of receiving the CoT at the MN is to
get end-to-end. The assumption is that the LMM
will allow the MN to send the CoTI through a reverse tunnel.

It would be simple to provide a static filter on the
LMM agent which only allows CoTI's out of the tunnel.

Some indication that the MN is allowed to use the CoA is
important. Whether that may be handled by a delegated node
LMM on behalf of the MN is up to the community to decide

for example: MN asks LMM Agent to do a CoTI on the MN's behalf.
              MN gives LMM Agent CoT Cookie.
              LMM agent sends CoTI to CN, with CoT Cookie,
              CN sends CoT to LMM agent, with CoT cookie.
              LMM agent uses CoT cookie to look up MN which requested
              LMM passes CoT Information back to MN with CoT cookie.

advantages:   no modification to CN's
disadvantages:relies on LMM agent to proxy.

Since the LMM agent is already trusted to route packets to the
MN, I don't see a problem with this, but I didn't want to get
shouted at by people who do :)

I'm pretty sure that I like feedback from the CN if it is
unable or unwilling to perform portions of RO. Having only
the HoTI/HoT could indicate that triangular routing is
available with HoA option processing, which is better than
reverse tunnelling.

This would provide a completeness case for when a CoT is
invalidated (for example due to timeout or incomplete CoT),
but the HoT is still valid, and the CN is still able to
receive HoA option packets.

Hi James.

I've made some responses inline.

That's correct. In setting up a binding in the Basic HMIPv6
case, either the RCoA may be sent as source address (!? if
ingress filtering allows) or the packets have to be
reverse tunnelled to the MAP.

This is necessary only when no binding exists, and before the
BU.

Certainly this is outside my experience, I'm not
sure what the case is today.

I'll have to think and read a bit about that issue.

Greg.

In RFC2461, MIN_DELAY_BETWEEN_RAS is only mentioned in section 6.2.6,
"Processing Router Solicitations".  Although it states "...consectutive
Router Advertisements sent to the all-nodes multicast address MUST be
rate limited to no more than one advertisement every
MIN_DELAY_BETWEEN_RAS seconds.", it does so in the context of replying
to Router Solicitations.

I think that a third option might be to ammend/clarify that the protocol
constant MIN_DELAY_BETWEEN_RAS only applies to _solicited_ multicast
RAs.  In this case it could be left at it's current value of 3 seconds
and MinRtrAdvInterval could be lowered for mobile IPv6 without opening
the router to the aforementioned abuse.

Is that sort of alteration to the operation of ND at all feasible?

Brett.

I think the trust relationship between a MAP and a host must be the same as
between any router in the foreign domain and the host.

It is not a replacement for the e2e trust relationship with the home agent,
nor
would I characterize it as a chain of trust, since it does not extend back
to
the home agent in any way. Or did you have something else in mind?

AWO> I did have something different in mind but I think it best to leave
that discussion for another time as a draft is due out on the detailed
security aspects of Nested which will address this ok. Agree with your
comments in general.

There is, of course, an issue about how the host verifies the trust
relationship
with the routers in the foreign domain in the first place. This is currently
an
open issue that the SEND BOF addressed. But assuming a mechanism for that,
the
trust relationship with the MAP can derive in some way from the trust
relationship with the routers, perhaps using the same mechanism but
requiring
additional steps (obtaining a certificate or key for the MAP through the
trusted
access router, etc.).

I'm sure this will need to be spelled out, in some amount of detail, in the
spec
before it will get IESG approval, but the important point now is that we can
achieve agreement on what the general framework is for security between the
MAP
and the host, so we can fill in the details.

AWO> Absolutely..

My comments were specifically about MIP signalling (for service invocation)
rather than routing security..

Alan,

I don't see the need for establishing security between the HA and the RMA
specifically for routing. Internet routing is logically divided into two
domains, interior and exterior. Any security for exterior routing is
established
between the border routers. The security within the domain and, by
extention,
between the border routers and the routers within the domain, is up to the
administrative entity controlling that domain. I don't think it would be
wise to
require that security to have to be extended by reaching out into the center
of
another administrative domain, so to speak, where the HA is located. The
logistical difficultities, whether AAA or PKI is used, of arranging this
(business requirements, etc.) and contractually arranging for what the
consequences are of a compromise, are too complex. Routing security should
be
strictly up to the administrative entity controlling the domain, and not
open to
anyone else.

The other applications you've brought up (service control, efficiency (?)
policy, regional handoff (?)) can be dealt with separately.

Alan,

No need to worry about upsetting me, that's not 
an easy task :). I'll try to save you some work. 

May well be, but without doing the comparative work I think HMIPv6 might
not
provide clean support for multiple HoAs per MN, 

=> That's not a problem in HMIPv6. Let me give you 
an example with Basic mode:
Assume a MN that has HoA_1 - HoA_9
If the MN wants them all directed to the same CoA/RCoA
it sends a single BU (S bit not set) to its HA with a single RCoA. 
If the home addresses belong to different HAs then separate
BUs need to be sent to the respective HAs, but the CoA/RCoA
is still the same. If the MN needs to direct traffic to 
different CoAs then this has to be handled per home address.
The whole process is independent of HMIPv6 because the 
MAP is completely unaware (in the basic mode case) of 
any home addresses.

Also, for more on this, see:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-soliman-mobileip-flow-move-02.txt

AWO> Thanks. So this is also the same as Nested MIP then which is great.

or local access
independent
of the presence of a global HA. 

=> Dunno what you mean here.

AWO> Let me do the analysis in detail ok and then I can be specific about
where the differences lie in my own mind rather than throwing out random
thoughts..

There are many subtleties in there wrt
AAA
service control and scalability.

=> Same as above.

AWO> Same as above ;-)

Alan.

I've tried to minimise this risk throughout, to make sure
that the risks for a third party running normal DAD are
no worse than a collision with a new node running normal DAD.

We're being Optimistic rather than Aggressive, I hope! 

The NA Override flag, as defined in RFC 2461 4.4, is always
cleared during the tentative phase.  So if we imagine the
following situation:

* OriginalNode, running normal DAD, has established an address
	and is corresponding via Router

* OptimisticNode appears on the network, and attempts to
	configure the address already used by OriginalNode
	1. Sends a Neighbour Solicitation
	2. Sends a Neighbour Advertisement with O=0

* Router sees the NA, but because it already has a neighbour
	cache entry for that address it ignores it as
	per RFC 2461.

* OriginalNode sees the NS, and responds with an NA
	with O=1, causing OptimisticNode to reconfigure
	with a new address.

* Any nodes on the local subnet which did not previously
	have a neighbour cache entry for OriginalNode
	and which see both NAs will end up with the
	entry for OriginalNode (since it's O=1)


The cases where two nodes, one Optimistic and one 
normal, try to configure the same address at overlapping
times may give preference to the Optimistic node,
however these cases are really quite unlikely to occur.

Hesham,

I think my interests are on the requirements and associated feature side to
see if HMIP + Nested can give us the super-set of must haves from my
perspective.

Concat MIP (option within Nested MIP) is maybe more in the space of extended
mode...

I have an open mind about how we wrap things together, once we have done the
analysis..

Alan.

If we intend to include extended mode into the base spec, and if the
NestedMIPv6
work would fold into extended mode, then we should discuss it here.

I think there are a number of issues with extended mode that we need to
resolve,
and I assume that any fold-in of NestedMIPv6 would either resolve them
or not,
and may perhaps generate more. Would it make sense to maybe spend a
little time
seeing if we can resolve them, after Alan and Hesham have had time to
chat, then
perhaps make a decision, based on the discussion, whether to keep
extended mode
in the base spec or separate it into a different spec?

=> Yes, I think we need to discuss Extended mode's 
future. I was preparing something to send to the list
but didn't want to disrupt the MIPv6 discussions, 
so now I'm trying to catch up :) 
There are a couple of issues that need to be polished 
due to the MIPv6 changes. Let's see if we can address
them, and after that assess whether it makes sense to
keep extended mode at all in the draft.
I'll send a proposal very shortly to the list. 


This would be a way to accelerate progress on basic mode, assuming we
have
agreement that the issues with basic mode have been addressed. Also, if
people
think that the issues with basic mode haven't been addressed, then
perhaps we
could focus on them?

=> I don't want to jumpt the gun but basic mode 
works without any problems at all. All it needs is 
some text about SA establishment between the MN and the 
MAP. No fixes needed IMHO, unless we want to add new
features.

Strongly with you on this one Jak

Routing proxies are the general issue here. Maybe then some specific
architecture work on routing proxies in the specific case of LMM might then
be useful..We can maybe leave that one open..

RFC 3514 was a mistake. It did not consider paging in the wider context of
IP
routing in general, and MIPv6 in particular. If that had been done, paging
would
never have been added to the Seamoby charter. I am not going to go into the
details why I believe this, since this mailing list is not the venue for it.

What I am trying to do in this case is learn from my mistakes and recommend
to
uplevel the architectural discussion (should the ADs and WG chairs agree
there
is a need) so that routing proxies can be considered in the wider context of
the
general IP routing architecture.

Personally, I believe that the IETF has already accepted the concept of
routing
proxies in the form of the HA and the FA, so the issue of whether there is
an
architectural issue is unclear to me, but I believe it is up to the WG
chairs
and ADs to make that determination.

Hello B. Sarikaya

As the author of the I-D ([8] in your draft) about the routing optimization in LMM, 
I want to write some comments on your draft.

In your draft...

> In Mobile IPv6, CNs send route optimized packets to MN.  Route 
> optimized packets are processed by GLMA by for finding the home 
> address of MN in the routing header and checking the regional 
> binding cache entry in order to get the next LMA address to forward 
> the packets to. GLMA then replaces the destination address with the 
> downstream LMA address. LMAs downstream forward route optimized 
> packets by modifying the destination address and this continues 
> until MN receives the packet. 

In HMIPv6, a MAP does not have any information about HoA of MN.
In yout draft, you say that the GLMA finds the HoA of MN in the routing 
header, and checks the binding cache. It is conflict with the scheme of 
HMIPv6. Although the HMIPv6 is one of examples of LMM, I think that 
the MAP (or GLMA) need not know the HoA of MN. 
RCoA and LCoA have 1:1 mapping relationship, and the MAP (or GLMA)
is sufficient to only know the binding between RCoA and LCoA.
    
Another... you say that GLMA replaces the destination address with the 
downstream LMA address. That is not possible, since IPv6 packets generally 
have AH. The replacement of desitination address is not allowable.

> GLMA MUST be the only node in the domain to which CNs outside the 
> domain send datagrams.

In large localized domain, only one GLMA is not sufficient to cover so many 
MNs. GLMA must receive all BU from MNs, process them, send BAck 
to the MNs, and process all packets destined for the MNs(tunneling)
LMA's loads may be more heavy than HA's load
, since HA's loads are alleviated with the route optimization of MIPv6.
Maybe, the price of LMA is higher than the one of HA.

.....

Let me add some my insistence.
I sugget that LMM should support the real routing optimization 
(send LCoA to CNs ouside MN's domain), that is, 
an MN and a CN can communicate directly without LMA's tunneling.
The RO can alleviate the intermediate mobility agent's heavy loads 
as well as optimize data-packet routing.

Youn-Hee Han.

Hi

I agree with Behcet that such a draft can be useful and here are some comments on his draft.

> 3.2 LMA Architecture
>
>  This architecture requires special care on the IP datagrams to be 
>  routed downstream.  The datagrams coming from the home agent 
>  tunneled to GLMA. GLMA decapsulates it and finds the home address of 
>  MN as the destination address. Using the binding cache entry GLMA 
>  reencapsulates the datagram to the corresponding lower care-of 
>  address. 

In above, it seems that GLMA uses 'home address' for data forwarding. It's better for 
GLMA to use 'RCOA'. When a packet arrives to LMA, destination address is RCOA. 
Searching binding cache with RCOA, LMA gets LCOA and encapsulate that packet 
to LCOA. In this manner, LMA doesn't have to do decapsulating and reencapsulating. 
(Only encapsulating once.) 

I wonder it is necessary for LMA to know MN's home address at all.

>  In Mobile IPv6, CNs send route optimized packets to MN.  Route 
>  optimized packets are processed by GLMA by for finding the home 
>  address of MN in the routing header and checking the regional 
>  binding cache entry in order to get the next LMA address to forward 
>  the packets to. GLMA then replaces the destination address with the 
>  downstream LMA address. LMAs downstream forward route optimized 
>  packets by modifying the destination address and this continues 
>  until MN receives the packet. 

In above, it seems that GLMA alters the destination address field of coming packets. It may 
cause some problem. It's better to use RCOA to get LCOA from binding cache.  

>  3.3 Domain change detection 
>  It is critical for the operation of any LMM protocol that MNs should 
>  be able to know if it is in its home domain (site) or in a visited 
>  domain. In neighbor discovery, routers advertise subnet prefixes. 
>  Subnet prefixes are obtained from site prefixes. Therefore routers 
>  can advertise site prefixes as part of neighbor discovery. This way 
>  MN can detect domain changes as described in [6]. 

I think what MN really has to know is not 'site' but 'available LMM lists and addresses.' MN 
only needs to know 1) the list of available LMAs and their addresses, 2) and their preference 
( hop counts) to select a suitable one among them. 

>  3.4 Route optimization 
>  
>  Problems associated with routing loops can be avoided as follows: 
>  Routers MUST be configured to send router advertisements with LMA 
>  extension on certain interfaces, e.g. avoiding AR to AR direct links. 
>  GLMA MUST be the only node in the domain to which CNs outside the 
>  domain send datagrams. 

It seems that above proposal makes GLMA single point of failure. 

>  5. Open Issues 
>    
>  Whether or not base MIPv4/v6 operation and LMM operation can be mixed 
>  once LMM start to be used. This is important for efficiency reasons. 
>  It may be advantageous for MN to communicate CNs in the same domain 
>  using the base protocol and to communicate CNs outside the domain 
>  using LMM. 

I agree this is important for Route Optimization. LMM gives extra cost of 'tunneling process 
and encapsulation header'. 

If a MN using LMM comes to receive large traffic from a CN without moving, it's more efficient 
to send LCOA to CN. It might be useful if MN can send RCOA or LCOA to CN according to its
own condition. 

According to Carl's LMM requirement draft, MN MUST NOT send LCOA outside of Local 
Coverage Area. Hence Route Optimization is impossible regardless of in what situation MN is.  

Even while using LMM, MN should be able to support 'Route Optimization' if it decides so. 

Best Regards

JinHyeock

This should work, and it will work even 
better when we get secure ND. Of course
it should be noted that this is a relaxation
of 2461 which says that the O flag MUST always
be set. But I think we should try to relax this 
requirement for this specific case.

Hi, a quick question about routing proxies.

Where else can I find routing proxies mentioned, other than being like
an HA or an FA?

Thanks,

Hello Alex,
  I am also curious on this. Not the terminology draft 
draft-ietf-seamoby-mobility-terminology-00.txt

Once a reference is given, I am going to add to my architecture draft 
and mention LMA as an example of routing proxy. I promise :)

Regards,

Hello JinHyeock,
  Thanks for your comments.
Regarding (for this email) domain change detection, IPv6 WG uses the 
term site, which I think corresponds to the domain we use in LMM. It 
seems that IPv6 WG has not yet resolved the site prefix issue. Reference 
[6] in my draft is an expired draft and reference 7 is the current one 
which tries to come up with a scoped address architecture for IPv6.
  I propose that the domain change detection be aligned with IPv6 WG 
work, i.e. with Reference 7.
 
  Regards,

>

Hi Behcet,

I could find the AAA-related "Routing Proxy" and the BGP-related
"Route Proxy".  But I'm sure James used it here as an extrapolation,
somehow.

  2.1 Routing Proxies

  Routing Proxies servers take requests, examine the identifying
  information (e.g. User-Name with NAI, Called-Number, Calling-Number)
  and decide which authentication server to forward the request to.  This
  "decision" process is usually a lookup list with domain and server
  information.

draft-bernstein-optical-bgp-01.txt:
3.1.3   Legacy Interoperability Inter-area 
    
   A very important subcase of inter-vendor/inter-area is where some 
   optical subnetworks (read: lots of existing installations) may not 
   run a routing protocol at all, e.g., they rely strictly on EMS-based 
   topology discovery/resource management.  In this case it may be 
   necessary to establish a "route proxy" to represent the sub-network 
   and allow for interoperability with other subnetworks. Key in this

I think we need to get someone from the ROHC group who understands the

Hi Alan,

> My comments were specifically about MIP signalling (for service invocation)
> rather than routing security..
>

Then I guess I'm unsure exactly what role a regional agent would play in service
invocation.

The architecture I've had in mind is that the NAS or PAA is responsible for
admitting the mobile node onto the link. It conducts a transaction with the
local AAA server, which routes back to the home AAA server if the mobile is a
roamer. Part of that transaction may involve downloading a service profile for
the mobile. The service profile is available at the foreign AAA server for
various service agents to utilize, for example, the SIP proxy or CD network
caches, etc. Alternatively, if the home network doesn't want to download the
service profile,the service agents can query the local AAA server and the local
AAA server can route back to the home server for AAA. The regional agent doesn't
play any role here, it is just a routing proxy.

Right now, there is a disconnect between the AAA for network access and AAA for
service access in the IETF, due to the long hiatus in getting Diameter to Draft.
For single sign on, ideally one would like the network access authentication to
also provide authentication for services. The Liberty Alliance and Microsoft
Passport are working on service authentication. From a carrier's perspective, we
would really like to see single sign on derive from network access
authentication, but Liberty and Passport aren't going in that direction, so far
as I know, but we're talking with them about it.

Am I missing something w.r.t. the regional agent and service invocation? I read
through the NestedMIP specs and I recall a couple of mentions about this, but
nothing specific.

In any event, it might be a good idea at some point to write up some kind of
common architectural vision about how this should work, perhaps as a draft for
the AAA working group. We had something very specific for SIP a couple years
ago.

I haven't been following this very closely, but
it's worth pointing out that mobility != cellular
3G. 802.11 for one couldn't care the least about
compression considerations, and 3G is certainly
not the end of the line for cellular. We should be
first and foremost concerned about security here
because *it* is a consideration that ain't going
to change. I'm not adverse to trying to make
things ROHC friendly, but ROHC should not be the
overarching design consideration; if it's needed
and ROHC can't deal with it... what exactly is the 
alternative, and what are its security properties?

As far as  I know, HA and FA are the only routing proxies.

   Why is this "ideal"? The entire point of the IP
   architecture is to not require all-in-one
   vertical applications/protocols... like
   ISUP. There are lot of ways to go about solving
   these problems; we shouldn't be prejudiced one
   way or the other. 

   The key here is to have the unifying elements
   of authentication built into the various
   protocols which require auth/authz. This
   include mundane stuff like straight password
   based protocols (CHAP, say), to Kerberos, PKI 
   and my personal fav Kerberos+PKI. Once those
   elements are built into the various protocols,
   it will be a lot easier to decide how to
   actually architect a network. The current
   situation with traditional AAA has some serious
   tail-wagging-dog syndrome, as in its proceeding
   from the premise "since this is all we have..."
   It's also suspiciously bellheaded -- like a
   HLR combover.

It is ideal because, quite frankly, the carriers want to avoid bankrupcy, an all
too common fate among telcom service providers these days. :-)  We would like to
see an IETF AAA architecture that can provide an *alternative* that will allow
charging and present the opportunity for incremental revenue. This doesn't mean
that everybody must follow that architecture, just that the alternative is
available. The HLR like architecture, of which you are rightly suspicious, is
not a viable alternative.

I have to agree with you on this.  I would phrase this
in another way however.  I wouldn't want to architect
the kind of solution which James is proposing here in
the architect.  I'd prefer to allow the basic protocols
which require authentication / authorization to support
the basic protocols & allow providers to create a AAA
based infrastructure, it that is what they want.  There
are lots of issues to tackle in this area, but most
get into deployment-type scenarios & I'd prefer to leave
them as deployment issues.  As long as there are the
right 'hooks' then that might be enough.

=> I don't think that what Nick proposed will hurt any 
other nodes. This is clearly achieved by _clearing_ the 
O flag. BTW, the MIPv6 spec has an even cruder (is that
a word!?) approach, it simply says that MNs should just
use the address while performing DAD and says nothing 
about the O flag as far as I remember.

G'day all,

	As part of an attempt to put together a minimal
specification / implementation of Fast Handovers for IPv6
over 802.11, I've been working on eliminating DAD delays
by using Optimistic DAD.

	There is some precedent for this based on 
draft-koodli-fastv6-00 and comments by Eric Nordmark in
the WG at IETF-54 in Yokohama, however this work is
really intended as a research rather than a standards-
setting effort :-)

	So far I've put together the beginnings of a 
spec and tweaked a Linux kernel to implement these
changes.  In initial tests, the modifications seem to 
be effective.  I've also made some modifications to 
_increase_ the likelihood of collision, in order to 
be able to test these cases.


	The modifications I'm experimenting with are:

* Always using randomized suffixes, as per RFC 3041.
    If there is a collision, pick a new random suffix and
    start again.

* Requiring the node to send unsolicited NAs:
	+ When DAD commences, with Override = 0;
	+ When DAD completes successfully, with Override = 1.
    This allows communication to start immediately if 
    there is no collision.

* Allowing the node to communicate while Tentative,
    which allows Binding Updates, etc to be sent.

* Allowing the node to respond to NSs while Tentative, but
    requiring that the reply NA Override flag is 0.


	Hopefully these changes allow a very fast handover 
while maintaining interoperation with normal nodes.

	I'm interested to hear your opinions!

What does "remove site-local use" mean? Require that site-local
addresses must not be used for HoA and/or CoA?

IMHO that would be throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

Supporting site-local addresses on multi-sited nodes (whether HAs, routers,
or just hosts) is a fair amount of complexity.
But one of the uses of site-local addresses (perhaps the only reasonable use?)
is for sites that are not connected to the Internet hence does not have
any global addresses. Preventing such a site from using Mobile-IPv6 internally
seems to be broken.

If we want to limit the complexity of site-locals it would be better to argue 
that HAs should never be multi-sited.

From the half-baked idea department:

Perhaps it would be better to explore "router/agent assisted DAD"
than optimistic DAD. In the assisted DAD case there would be an agent
which would somehow reliably know the IP addresses and link-layer
address of everybody on the link. Then it could send an "ok to use it"
response to DAD queries if the address isn't in its table or
if it is in the table with the same link-layer address.

The trick is how to reliably have the agent build the tables.
One way would be to add a new RA option "please periodically send a packet
to X" where X is the address of the agent, which would cause all hosts
to send a packet with a given period.
This requires changes in all hosts on the link, and it causes additional
background traffic for the benefit of shortening the DAD query.

When happens when OptimisticNode, before seeing the NA from OriginalNode,
decides to communicate with PeerNode and sends a NS to PeerNode?
Wouldn't that cause PeerNode to overwrite whatever neighbor cache entry
it has for the IP address?

Hi Erik,

I've half baked the idea myself with MLD
(which [currently] is a requirement to do DAD ...)

What's needed is to either snoop all the NA's to
the solicited nodes addresses (+ maybe the NS's for
a response), or for a router to watch the MLD
reports for every node on the link.

Since the router will receive the MLD reports anyway,
I thought it may be a good place to start.

There's a draft at:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-daley-ipv6-mcast-dad-00.txt

MLD already implements the periodic retransmission
system, and only (MLDv1) requires the most recent
reporter out of a multicast group to send the update.

Only one additional message is sent, in the case
of a successful fastDAD.

It only works if people implement MLD on all nodes on the
link though...

In MIPv6/HMIPv6, this trick also works with the MAP or HA,
as well as the visited link. Once this response is received,
the address is DAD'ed and the MAP/HA can send the BAck
immediately after receiving the confirmation,
which is not possible in the optimistic scheme.

I think that using Nick's version of optimistic DAD can
be done without harming other nodes' neighbor caches or
TCP sessions, though.

This would be a reasonable limitation. However, is it enough? Let's talk about
site-local home addresses. Assume an MN has one. Everything is OK as long as
the MN stays within the site as you propose above. But what if the MN happens
to go outside the site? Say, it accidentally connects to someone else's WLAN.
How should it behave with its site-local home address? Perhaps it could still
connect to its HA with the bidirectional tunnels. It can't talk to CNs in the
visited site, because (a) it can't get to them via the bidirectional tunnel
and (b) if it tries to establish RO it will fail due to HOTI/HOT never reaching
the right CN. Hmm... perhaps everything is safe from the point of view CNs
then. The only strange thing is that the BUs going between the MN and the HA
will have a site-local HAO, and it is not clear how they might be treated
by firewalls and filters.

And then to site-local care-of addressses. Currently, these are not forbidden
in the specification. If the local router advertises a site-local prefix, the
MN could get a site-local care-of address. Under which conditions can we use
this address? Only if the HA is within the same site. But it isn't clear to
me how the MN would know if it is in the same or different site. So it might
be safer to assume that at the very least the MN should try to use a global
address as a care-of address, if it has a choice. If it does not have a choice,
it could also use the site-local address.

I think the MLD report is the better of the two, since there is a mechanism
to make them reliable (the elected queries will send MLD queries to get groups
reported). Snooping all NAs might be expensive, and only looking at the
DAD probes is not robust. Also, the NAs have no associated lifetime for
the state, but the periodic MLD queries effectively provide a lifetime
for the reported information. Thus with MLD you know when you can remove
addresses from the table of the registered entities.

> It only works if people implement MLD on all nodes on the
> link though...

Yep.

And the issue is whether you need to know the actual IPv6 address of the node,
or just the solicited node multicast address. I think MLD is only guaranteed
to provide the latter, since the source of the MLD can be the unspecified
address and since the reports for the same group are suppressed.
An example of the latter is a case when two nodes are manually configured
one with P1::0:1 and the other with P2::0:1.
Those addresses are not duplicates but they result in the same solicited node
multicast address being joined. Thus the router might not reliably know
about both of the node's addresses.

Given that my example was an isolated site (not connected
to the Internet), the MN can't move outside the
site and expect anything.

Forbidding site-local HoAs means that MIPv6 can't be used in an isolated site.
Do we really want to forbid that?

Yes. But since the our specifications can't really prevent
from this happening in the real world some day, what I was
trying to do was to figure out if it would lead to a catastrophy
or not. It seems that going outside the original site would
not cause any major problems. But it also seems that we may
have to be a bit careful with the care-of address selection
if multiple kinds of addresses are available. Perhaps it is
sufficient to add the following things to the specification:

- Require that home agents and mobile nodes that use site-local
   addresses always stay completely within that site.
- Pick a global care-of address if available.

I'm not saying the proposed solution would not work, but I
just wish to point out few issues for consideration.

In this draft, chapter "2.0 Protocol Overview" has

      Secondly, the report asks the MLD querier router to respond if
      the group is previously unknown.  Limiting response to the
      querier router prevents multiple responses and allows for simple
      rate-limiting operation.

The key phrase is "group is previously unknown". How does MLD know a
group is unknown?

- it must send MLD query requesting report on all groups

- it must be sure to catch and store each reply, and only after it
  knows it has got them all, it can assume "some group is unknown".

- with high probability, there will be a reply from each node on the
  link (usually each node belongs to different solicited node group)

- if LLMNR is being used, with high probabily, each node is also a
  member of "solicited name" multicast group, with large probability
  that each node is alone in its group

- some other uses for highly unique link local multicast groups may be
  deviced, increasing the number of link local groups

Thus, the number of link local groups that MLD router must keep track
of, is always at least O(number of nodes on link). Whether this is bad
or not, I don't know.

Concerning Erik's mail

There is no difference in listening DAD probes or MLD. The only place
where MLD for solicited node group would be sent, is just before DAD
probe. Thus, if you have possibility to lose DAD probe, the same
applies to MLD join.

As each node is usually alone in solicited node group, above does not
apply in general. And, MLD making periodic queries for each known
solicited node or name group may be a lot of traffic too. (Or, even if
it makes periodic queries to ANY group).

Yes, that should be sufficient. 
(I would phrase the first bullet differently
since you can't actually require that the nodes not move. Pointing out
that MIPv6 can not and does not provide transparent communication
when site-local addresses are used and the MN move outside the site
would be my way of phrasing it).

Then, independently, the complexity of the IPv6 site-local addresses
for multi-sited nodes can be discussed independently of MIPv6
in the ipng (or v6ops?) WG.

Yes, but my point is that for MLD the querier router will send
periodic MLD queries which in effect will make the hosts retransmit
their MLD reports. There is no mechanism which the router can use
to get all hosts to resend their DAD probes.

> As each node is usually alone in solicited node group, above does not

MLDv1 results in a single periodic query for all groups being sent
by the router, resulting in a (randomly delayed) MLD report for every
group that is joined on the link. (There is supression of duplicate
reports in MLDv1 when multiple nodes have joined the same group.)

This is just how MLDv1 works in order for multicast to work.
Thus using the information (which solicited node multicast addresses
are joined on the link) for some other purpose wouldn't cause extra
packets to be sent. But note that this doesn't indicate which IP addresses
are used, since there is a many-to-one mapping from IP address to solicited
node multicast address.

From a wireless spectrum standpoint, this is not a particularly good use of
spectrum. For free spectrum, the issue isn't the cost, but it can increase
congestion, since the wireless link can be viewed as always oversubscribed.

I've seen some other possible approaches to shortening DAD that I think might be
better to explore.

Site local CoAs could also be used with LMM, as long as the LMM agent/MAP is

I'd like to see these critera reflect the possibility of using a site local for

But the NA later sent to the all-nodes multicast address from
the OriginalNode would override the entry in the PeerNode
with the right value.

One possibility is that PeerNode has already processed the
NA from the original Node but the Optimistic Node has not
yet processed yet, sends the NS, updates the entry in the
PeerNode. Is this your case ?

Submitted a new draft titled " Simultaneous Handoff of Mobile-IPv4 and
802.11".

Abstract:
=========
This document describes a way to perform simultaneous Mobile-IPv4
handoff 
and 802.11 Access Point Association/Reassociation. Mobile-IPv4
Registration
messages are carried as Information Elements in 802.11 frames. This way 
Mobile-IPv4 can perform handoff at the same time as 802.11 handoffs.

Abstract

This document describes a way to perform simultaneous Mobile-IPv4 =
handoff=20
and 802.11 Access Point Association/Reassociation. Mobile-IPv4 =
Registration
messages are carried as Information Elements in 802.11 frames. This way=20
Mobile-IPv4 can perform handoff at the same time as 802.11 handoffs. =
This is an=20
attempt to seek comments and critique on this approach.

1.  Overview and Rationale

In the 802.11 wireless lan [WiFi] network an 802.11 client connects to =
an
802.11 Access Point (AP) at the link level. 802.11 provides a mechanism =
to=20
achieve handoffs between AP's and the client. A 802.11 client first=20
authenticates and then associates with one AP. When the 802.11 client=20
decides that it is better to move to a second AP, it can do a=20
pre-authentication  and re-association  with the second AP.=20

Similarly when a Mobile-IPv4 (MIP4) client move from subnet to subnet it
seeks a Foreign Agent (FA) situated in the subnet and registers with the =
FA.=20
The IP packet sent in Registration Message has the Home IP address as =
the=20
source, and=20
the  destination address can be the FA's IP address or the "All Mobility =
Agents"
multicast address (224.0.0.11).  The FA then responds with Registration =
Reply=20
message. The Registration Message also includes Authentication =
Extensions.

There is no obvious reason why the Mobile Node (MN) has to go through =
the=20
authentication and association/registration twice. It would be =
beneficial
to subsume the authentication and registration of MIPv4 to be completed=20
during the 802.11 Authentication and Association exchanges.

2. 802.11 Network Architecture.

A hypothetical IP over 802.11 network is shown in the following figure. =
The
mobile client MN can move from subnet X1 to X2 and from AP2 to AP3.=20

			[FA1]
 			  |
	...	[AP1]-------[X1]--|
[MN]...       	  |		|=09
		[AP2]----		|----[X]----->  [HA]
 					|=09
		[AP3/FA3]---[X2]--|


[MN] - Mobile Node
[FA] - Foreign Agent
[HA] - Home Agent
[AP] - Access Point
[X]  - IP Router
...  - 802.11 link=20
---  - 802.3  link

					Figure 1: 802.11 Network

3.  Message Sequence

The following figure  shows the what happens when MN  move from AP1 to =
AP2 to=20
AP3. During the AP1 to AP2 handoff, the MN is in same subnet, hence  =
MIPv4=20
registration is not required. The MN has no good way to figure that it =
is still=20
within the same  subnet, hence it sends a MIPv4 Registration Message =
element in=20
the 802.11 Association Message. The FA responds with MIPv4 reply which =
can be=20
generated without doing  a  FA to HA message sequence.=20

4. Additional Information Elements in 802.11 Management Frames

The 802.11 Association/Reassociation frames are shown in the following=20
figure. The Association/Reassociation frames carry an=20
optional MIPv4 information element. The MIPv4 Registration Request
message is contained in the 802.11 Association/Reassociation Request=20
messages. The MIPv4 Registration Reply message is contained in the=20
802.11 Association/Reassociation Response messages.=20

	        Figure 3. 802.11 (Re) Association Request Frame

In Figure 3., 802.11 Association Reassociation frames differ primarily
in the absence of the Current AP address field from the first.=20

The MIPv4-802.11 element is an 802.11 Information Element (IE) with a =
unique=20
Element ID (say 128) (see page 55 of [WiFi]). The 802.11 Information =
Element
consists of the following fields: Element ID, Length ID, and =
Information.
The length field  is 1 octet long and specifies the length of the =
Information
field in number of octets. Thus the MIPv4-802.11 can be at most 255 =
octets,
and as such it would be a waste to put the full IP and UDP header. Hence =

a psuedo-IP and psuedo-UDP header is used. The pseudo-IP header is =
composed
of Source and Destination IP addresses. The  destination address can be =
the=20
FA's IP address or the "All Mobility Agents" multicast address =
(224.0.0.11).
The Source IP address is the Home Address of the MN. The pseudo-UDP =
header is=20
composed of Source Port and Destination Port.  The rest of the =
MIPv4-802.11=20
is the MIPv4 fields. Figure 4 below shows the MIPv4-802.11 Information =
Element.

	Figure 4. MIPv4-802.11 Registration Reply Information Element


Similarly a MIPv4-802.11 Registration Reply IE is defined which has=20
the same format as Request IE's. The Source IP Address is the unicast IP =

address of the FA. The Destination IP Address is copied from the IP
Source Address of the corresponding Registration Request IE. The UDP=20
ports are also copied from the Registration Request IE, with the=20
destination and source exchanged.

5. Mobile Entity Implications

There are some implications for the different mobile entities involved.

5.1 Implications for MN

The MN should be capable of passing the MIPv4 information to the 802.11=20
Driver and vice-versa.

5.2 Implications for 802.11 AP

The 802.11 AP should be able to extract/include the MIPv4-802.11 IE. Its
relation to the  FA depends on whether the FA is a separate entity or an
embedded entity.

5.3 Implications for FA

The FA listens on UDP port 434, hence if it is a separate entity it is =
not
expected to change. If the FA is an embedded entity in the AP, then =
there
might be alternative ways to exchange information with the AP.

=> Should we put the same condition on the MN too?
I'm trying to get my head around a multi-sited MN
(on the same interface) and how it chooses the right 
site-local CoA. It seems difficult.

Also the other tricky part is how does a MN know if
it's in a home site. It might boot in a site that
has both global and site-local addresses but is not
the home site, so it shouldn't send a BU to its HA
for a site-local CoA. 

am I missing something?

Sorry if I'm replying to something that was already

=> Sure. But the issue is that even if a global
address is not available and Site-local only is
available, the MN might not be in the home site.
But I guess in that case the BU will never make 
it to the HA. So this should be ok.

Hello Subrata,
  I was looking at your draft and noticed that you mentioned Scott as 
the author of RFC 2002, no it is Charlie.

Hello Behcet,

My role in the production of RFC 2002 is properly described
as "the editor".  There were many contributors, some of whom
authored substantial portions of the text.

Regards,
Charlie P.

=> I'm trying to think of a way of doing this without 
adding anything to ND (to make the solution work for 
existing nodes). So what if we force the 
OptimisticNode to communicate with PeerNode via the 
default router, until DAD is finished. This might 
cause rate limited redirects (?) but presumably
we're only talking about 1-2 seconds. If the 
address was used by someone else then communication
will fail since OptimisticNode will not overwrite
the cache entry in the default router (for the OriginalNode).

Of course the BW impacts due to potential redirects maybe
a problem here.

Hesham,

When the OptimisticNode sends the Neighbor Solicitation, the
Router will create an entry for the Optimisitic Node in its
cache looking at the source link layer address option. If
the IP address is already in use by some other node, that cache
entry  will get overwritten. Now, Where does the NA go ?  How were you
planning to force the OptimisticNode to use the default
router ?

I'm also concerned that the loss of a single message that should "correct"
the neighbor cache entry that was erronously modified might be lost (by
all or some receivers). If that happens and it causes
a single TCP packet to be delivered to the wrong node it will result in
the TCP connection being reset, thus the effect of this packet loss
is more significant than packet loss for ND packets in general.

Finding the right level of robustness for this type of scheme is tricky
but I haven't thought through all the cases in detail.

Actually I have a draft in the works along this line. The basic idea is
to turn distributed (i.e., peer2peer) address resolution process into
a centralized one. First hop routers keep track of all of the hosts
on link, effectively turning their neighbor cache into a neighbor table
(NT),
and hosts consulting routers for neighbor solicitations and duplicate
address detection (now can be called duplicate address check - DAC).

There is obviously neighbor table maintenance with neighbor advertisements
with lifetimes.

The benefits of this scheme is not limited to DAD only. The DoS attack
I had identified in section 3.8 of draft-kempf-ipng-netaccess-threats-02.txt
can also be solved by relying on this mechanism. Even when it's not an
attack, awakening of dormant nodes and delays caused by a ND when
an entry may or may not be in the "cache" of a router are other issues that
can benefit from NT approach. Delays get more significant and bandwidth
gets more precious in cellular environments. Also a multicast message likely
to cause one unicast per each host.

When the OptimisticNode sends the Neighbor Solicitation, the 
Router will create an entry for the Optimisitic Node in its 
cache looking at the source link layer address option. If 
the IP address is already in use by some other node, that cache 
entry  will get overwritten. Now, Where does the NA go ?  How were you 
planning to force the OptimisticNode to use the default 
router ? 

=> I guess this discussion was in the context 
of FMIPv6. In this case the OptimisticNode does not
need to send an RS to the default router (the proxy
RA was already received before the MN moved). As for 
PeerNodes on the link, I was suggesting that the 
OptimisticNode does not send NSs to them until 
DAD is finished, and communicate (inefficiently
but temporarily) through the default router. 
The only ND message the OptimisticNode needs to send
(apart from DAD) is a NA with the O flag cleared, 
which will not overwrite any existing entries for 
the IP address being tested.

Despite the subject line, I think we better solve this
for general case and make sure it also applies to
Fast Mobile IPv6 Handovers... (therefore maybe
carry on this discussion on IPv6 list??)

Hi James,

Since MLD has to be performed to listen to the
solicited nodes multicast, these messages will be
sent anyway.

The only additional packet (or overhead, since
the MLD request for response is embedded in the
original MLD Report) is if the router responds.

This is only if No other nodes exist on this address.
If the multicast group exists, the router leaves
the nodes to DAD defend their own addresses.

Plus, you don't have to send all the packets to
the nodes for free...

The router doesn't send reports, but may request all nodes on
the link to send a report with an MLD query.

This is what is required. (although not explicitly mentioned
in this section )

After startup, the router would have to wait
the MLD Multicast Listener Interval to ensure that
periodically reporting nodes have given their status.

this is equivalent to the backoff mechanism defined
in Section 5.5 Exhaustion of Querier Router's Storage.

I agree that the number of groups is proportional to
the number of nodes on the link, although there may
be some solicited nodes addresses which are in use by
multiple nodes (where the optimization won't work).

It is necessary only to provide this function for
solicited nodes multicast addresses, rather than other
sets of addresses such as LLMNR's solicited name address.
So this may cut down on the number of addresses to track.

Since the idea is an optimization with a robust fallback
case (full DAD), it may be OK to keep state for between
0 and MAX_MLD_DAD_GROUPS.  where MAX_MLD_DAD_GROUPS is
is proportional to the maximum number of addresses expected
on the link (depends on whether LLAddress and Global address
are formed from same suffixes on the link).

If we look an equivalent tracking system based only on
NA/NS then similar state must be kept.

Sadly, the same is true for base-case DAD ... if DupAddrDetectTransmits
is 1 (the default), a single lost NS or NA may cause a collision
to go undetected.

Absolutely.  Given the tiny probabilities involved, I think
it's important for the collision cases to be 'recoverable',
but that they don't need to be 'perfect'.

My aim with this work is to minimise handover latency while not
significantly increasing the risks compared to the RFC 2461/2462
base case. 

Thanks for your comments ...

True.. In the case of DAC (duplicate address check), since the host
doesn't rely on the "absence of a response", the solution is resilient
to packet loss. Host doesn't start using the new IP address until
it receives a response from the router(s)...

Hi Alper,

I for one would be very interested in seeing how
an ND or NT approach can be used to provide this
service.

Is it possible to have a rundown on some of
the features you mentioned :

neighbor table refreshing,
reaching full state,
how multicasting is avoided?

Ok, this part is clear now. Nodes doing optimistic

There is still some problem I think. If you send the
advertisement even with the O flag cleared, it can
temporarily misdirect the packets till the real node
that owns the address sends out the NA with the override
flag. Here is one scenario :

1) Optimistic Node A sends DAD for address "A"
2) Router is currently soliticiting (NS) to send packets
   to A (packets from some other node). Before the real owner
   sends the response to A, our opportunistic node A can send
   the response, router creates the NC entry, and sends that TCP
   packet to Node A, and Node A generates a reset. The real node
   will override the entry in the router later on, and
   also see the DAD probe in step (1) and respond to it.=20
   But temporarily it can cause a few packets to go to the
   wrong place I think.

Good point, and one I'd completely missed!  There isn't an
equivalent to the Override bit for the NS and RS link-layer
options.

RFC 2461 3.:
| 
| A single request-response pair of packets is sufficient for
| both the initiator and the target to resolve each other's link-layer
| addresses; the initiator includes its link-layer address in the
| Neighbor Solicitation.

Happily, the requirements to sent a link-layer address option 
with NSs and RSs are only SHOULDs, so I think I can get around
this by requiring for Optimistic DAD that:

* Nodes MUST NOT send link-layer address options with their 
	NSs and RSs while Tentative.

This means that setting up communications with peers will
be slightly clumsier (eg: more messages sent) if they ignore
the unsolicited O=0 NAs, but I think it solves the critical
cases.


Thanks for your comments!

Indeed ... as you've all probably gathered, Greg Daley and I are 
working on the same problem from opposite ends ... I'm
working on ways to make the standard stateless method
faster, and he's working on alternative, stateful 
solutions.

I'd agree that a stateful solution could be made more robust
in the case of packet loss, but I'm not sure, given the N/2**64
odds of collision, that it's necessary to do more than the make
the situation recoverable.

Basically, at any time first hop router has a table (NT)
of all the hosts connected to the link. If a host is not
in this table, we can conclude that it's not on the link. Therefore
instead of a host multicasting its DAD packets, it can directly
ask (send extended NA with lifetime field, or NS) the router and wait 
for a response (receive NA-ack, or proxy NA). Only after this response 
the host can conclude whether its safe to use an IP address 
or not. 

The received NA-ack has "granted lifetime", which
host keeps track of to make sure the NT entry on the router
is refreshed before it expires. (or we can give this
responsibility to the router to send a NS before the entry
expires).

Hi Alper,

This sounds interesting.
How do you see that this has advantages
over only using DHCPv6 on a network?

 In your previous mail you wrote:

   Happily, the requirements to sent a link-layer address option

   this by requiring for Optimistic DAD that:
   
   * Nodes MUST NOT send link-layer address options with their 
   	NSs and RSs while Tentative.
   
=> if this has no consequences for RSs this is NOT the case for NSs:
a NS sent without a link-layer address option on a link with addresses
has to be sent from the unspecified address and the answer is multicasted
to all nodes. It works well BUT it is a DAD probe for the peer address,
i.e., not exactly what you'd like to do in not-desperate situations.
Look at the discussion about the MN returning at home without the knowledge
of the link-layer address of the HA...

Hi Alper,

I missed the section with the NS from the router.

That sounds like a good idea, since even nodes which
do not support the fast DAD would support NA responses
to NS's.

A flag or option in the NS could allow sending of a timer
in the response, otherwise the lifetimes from the
RA could be used.

The probability of collision is low, but not so low, see
draft-soto-mobileip-random-iids-00.txt

Anyway, it is low enough that there are other sources of problems in 
communications much more probable than that and, on the other hand, we 
have the optimization in handover times.

Ignacio

=> Ok, so this is a case where OriginalNode has not 
been active and loses out on a connection due to 
a race condition (OptimisticNode's NA arrives first). 

Sure, that can happen, but now the probability is even
lower than address duplication. I agree that this 
method is not perfect, but it is also worth noting 
that DAD itself is not reliable, so it's a matter of 
how far we need to go to get a "good enough" solution. 
I think the unreliability of DAD should be one of our bottom
lines in this discussion. 

Hesham

Hello Youn-Hee,
Presently the draft is being revised and version 1 is going to be issued
soon in which some of your comments will be incorporated.

You are suggesting a different packet processing algorithm, so I am
going to consider this method to be mentioned as well in the draft.

RO yes for CN to RCoA but not CN to LCoA. After the route optimized
packet arrives in the domain, LMM takes over. This is fundamental to
LMM. Hope you agree with this.

RO yes for CN to RCoA but not CN to LCoA. After the route optimized packet

This is not sufficient. If the otimistic node sends
an NA before the duplicate check, it can cause problems.

Hello Nick,

This is an interesting problem (research problem for sure!)

I had sent out a note to the list last year (March 13, 2001)
in which I attempted an analysis of fastv6 handover. [I can't
get the URL of the posting, but it's in the archive]
The following text from that note may be relevant to this
discussion. I think the method will work, but I have been
away at Yosemite for little too long!

Regards,

-Rajeev

......

NAR = New AR

c> after L2 establishment with NAR, NA message could incorrectly
update the ND cache entries.

The MN sends a Neighbor Advertisement (NA) message after attaching to
NAR. What type of NA is sent is unclear. Typically, unsolicited NA
messages are sent to  all-nodes multicast address to propagate new
information to all the nodes. Since there  is no solicitation message
described, we assume that unsolicited NA is sent. In such a message,
the O-flag SHOULD be set to indicate that the receiving nodes should
override their cache entries with the information supplied in this
message. The source IP address in this message is "an address assigned
to the interface from which the advertisement is sent [RFC 2461]",
which means it could be a link-local address or a global IPv6 address.
Anyway, there are two cases to consider here. First, assuming that the
NAR is proxying new CoA and has sent proxy NA message(s) before the MN
attaches to NAR, the NA sent by the MN correctly updates ND cache
entries in all the nodes. On the other hand, if the NAR was not
succesful in being able to proxy the new CoA, e.g, due to the address
being in use already, then the NA  message sent by the MN would
incorrectly update ND cache entries in all the nodes. This latter
situation must be avoided. Even though the draft attempts to ensure
that the MN does not use a new address until a confirmation is
received (i.e., BAck message approves the use of new CoA), the use of
NA in this fashion contradicts the objective.

Suggestion for handling scenario c>
-----------------------------------

We propose to include a new 'T' bit in the NA message that the MN
sends after attaching to NAR. This bit MUST be set to one only by the
MN undergoing fast handover. When the 'T' bit is set, it indicates
that the sender is trying to propagate its information to all the
nodes on-link providing that its IP address is tentative. The nodes
trying to propagate their new information when their IP addresses are
confirmed, MUST NOT set the 'T' bit to one. Thus, if a node receives
an NA message with 'T' bit set to one, it MUST NOT override an already
existing corresponding ND cache entry. If a node has a proxy ND cache
entry, the presence of a 'T' bit set to one indicates that the node
SHOULD override the entry if the entry corresponds to the sender of
the NA. If a node is proxying an address that does not belong to the
MN, the 'T' bit  would disallow overriding the ND cache entry.

Note that this solution would not work when two MNs participating in
fast handovers simultaneously try to acquire the same address and
simultaneously try to  announce their presence via NA messages both
setting the 'T' bit.

Although the 'T' bit extension can be used in multicast NA messages as
well, limiting the message to unicast only to the NAR would ensure
that other nodes on-link would observe transparency. Thus, we
recommend that the proposed extension be carried in a unicast NA
message to NAR. Once the MN confirms its new IP address, it may send a
mulicast NA message with the 'T' bit set to zero.

The following cases sumamrize the process.

i> another node on the link is using new CoA.
   Note that NAR has fairly recent information about this, since it
   would have failed to defend the address for the MN. NAR MUST NOT
   overide its cache and report
   the error with possible recourse back to the MN.

ii> NAR is proxying the address for the MN.
   NAR SHOULD overide its cache entry with the information in the NA
   message providing that the 'T' bit is set.

iii> NAR is proxying new CoA for some other node (off-link or on-link).
   Any node whose legitimate (meaning its address is known to be not
   tentative) IP address is currently being proxied by NAR, MUST NOT
   set the 'T' bit when it sends NA message. This allows NAR to
   override the entry when necessary. If NAR receives a NA message
   with 'T' bit set, the 'T' bit allows NAR to distinguish that the
   request arrived from a node for which it is not proxying the
   address.


Whereas the above extension addresses the incorrect update to ND cache
entries when there is address conflict, it does not the address the
problem that it takes an RTT-air delay before the MN can use a new IP
address. The solution to this problem in the next e-mail.

Yes, how "far" is the question. Perhaps, the original proposal
itself is sufficient and we don't need to send through the default
router till the DAD is finished. Not doing DAD (because it
is unreliable) at all may be extreme.  May be we should
understand all the failure cases with the new proposal to see how
far we can go.

=> I think the original proposal with the addition
that Nick sent later of not using the ND optimisation
of adding the LLA to NSs would work. It still would not 
address the case you mentioned, but let's see if there
are other failure cases.

Not doing DAD (because it 
>is unreliable) at all may be extreme.  May be we should 
>understand all the failure cases with the new proposal to see how 
>far we can go.   

=> Agreed.

Rajeev, 

From my understanding of this proposal, it has the
same effect as Nick's but his proposal does not add 
anything to ND. Both proposals would fail in the case
that Mohan mentioned. IMHO, it would be better to have
something that would not add anything to ND, so it would
be understood by all nodes on the link.

One advantage is that the host can use RFC 3041 address privacy.

In my proposal, the opportunistic node would not send NA
in response to NS from the router until its address is
confirmed (even though the proposal was not written with
the scenario that Mohan describes in mind).

The NA can be unicast only to the AR (this is recommended
in the proposal).  Once the address is confirmed, a regular NA
is multicast.

=> I missed this part, but doesn't that mean that it won't
be able to receive traffic until DAD is finished?

=> Right, but how does it communicate with PeerNodes in the 
mean time? Does it have to go through the NAR?

Ignacio,

I like your comparison with other real world probabilities. 

The birthday paradox applies when all addresses in the pool are selected
randomly with uniform probability so that any pair may be identical.  In
Nick's proposal the addresses undergo the standard DAD check and so are
guaranteed to be unique after the period of tentativeness expires.  The
only possible conflicts are with new addesses being used optimistically
for a short period and so the birthday paradox does not apply.

In the real world I suspect the probability will be limited by the
randomness of any PRNGs.

Richard.

Hi James,

the DHCPv6 draft now supports IA_TA for
temporary RFC 3041 address assignments.
(section 12)

Dear all,
  Based on the comments, I made a major revision of the draft. The scope 
of the draft includes mobility management not just localized mobility 
management. This has been possible with the routing proxy concept as 
suggested by James. Now the title reads:
Architectural Framework for Global and Localized Mobility Management
  I am going to submit it to the drafts directory, but until then it can 
be accessed following this link:
http://pages.sbcglobal.net/bsarikaya/publications/draft-sarikaya-mobileip-lmmframework-01.txt

  What do you think?

Hi Greg,

This is more of a "keeping track" of what
IP addresses are being used, instead of "fully managing"
them. I believe that first hop routers keeping track of
all nodes' IP addresses will be a common feature especially
in wireless networks (due to the potential problems, optimizations 
I outlined earlier), keeping the same information on the dhcp
server would be redundant. Also note that the nodes still have 
the control over what IP address they choose.

This method can be made to work even when some of the
nodes don't support the extended protocol. This can be achived
by loading more responsibility on the routers (e.g., they can keep
track of regular DADs). But I'm afraid the same cannot be said 
when dhcp is used for this purpose. All nodes have to support 
dhcp and use it to remedy the effects of DAD.

Yes. And, I realize the correct thing to do is to send NA with

Basically, the AR replies to NA (with T bit set to 1) with a RA-NAACk
option(i.e., fmipv6 behavior). So, that's one round-trip during which it

cannot communicate directly with its PeerNodes. However, in order to
communicate with them, it needs to do ND first with those nodes right ?
The opportunistic node could use unspecified address while doing ND with

PeerNodes and use the confirmed address later for actual data
communication. This way, you could parallelize (address confirmation and

ND with PeerNode) operations.

Yep, I don't seem to be able to find the original post but 
is this all of it?:
<http://playground.sun.com/pub/mobile-ip/FH-archive/frm01112.html>

As you've no doubt noticed, my suggestions are very similar
to your original draft-koodle-mobileip-fastv6-00.txt ...
in fact, they come about because when I started to look
at implementing your "'O'ptimistic" flag, I realised that
its behaviour could be handled using the "'O'verride"

I'll have to study your more recent post more carefully

One thing is that the OppNode should respond to any NS
with T bit set. Since solicited NAs have the effect of updating
the ND cache, setting the T bit when the address is unconfirmed
allows to prevent the update. Changes to ND for each node is
a concern; however, it should be possible to restrict the changes
to the AR and the OppNode.
Also, if the AR is proxying the address for some other node, which
is one of the issues considered in the note, then sending NA with
O=1 would incorrectly update the cache again. Here, you would
like to set T=1 also.

In any case, It would be nice to arrive at a good solution.

But does the host have to return to the DHCP server re-initialize? If so, then
RFC 3041 may still have an advantage for wireless: less over the air traffic,
if, of course, DAD can be optimized to require fewer messages than DHCP.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.


	Title		: Generalized Mobile IPv4 Extension
	Author(s)	: J. Bharatia, K. Chowdhury
	Filename	: draft-bharatia-mobileip-gen-mipv4-ext-00.txt
	Pages		: 11
	Date		: 2002-9-11
	
IP Mobility support for IPv4 [RFC3344] defines a short and skippable 
extension header format intended to extend the Mobile IP extension 
address space. Based on the format presented in [RFC3344], this 
draft defines a generalized Mobile IP extension, which SHOULD be 
used by any Mobile IP entity to exchange information of the network 
entities like DNS server address, previous Foreign Agent (FA) 
address, Network Access Identifier (NAI) and/or address of a session 
manager etc.

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.

Hi all,

I have a question in section 6.1.1. The Checksum field says that use
section
8.1 of IPv6 RFC to determine values for the pseudo-header. That section
says :

        The Upper-Layer Packet Length in the pseudo-header is the
         length of the upper-layer header and data (e.g., TCP header
         plus TCP data).  Some upper-layer protocols carry their own
         length information (e.g., the Length field in the UDP header);
         for such protocols, that is the length used in the pseudo-
         header.  Other protocols (such as TCP) do not carry their own
         length information, in which case the length used in the
         pseudo-header is the Payload Length from the IPv6 header, minus
         the length of any extension headers present between the IPv6
         header and the upper-layer header.

This packet is going to contain only a Mobility Header, so is the Upper
Layer Packet Length going to be zero ? The last sentence (the one about
TCP) seems to imply that, don't count the length of the extension headers
(which MH happens to be).

Any insight into this ?

Thanks,

- KK

The intention is that MH is a final header, i.e., like TCP in this
respect. But you are right that the text doesn't explicitly say this.
I propose to add the following to 6.1.1:

   "The Mobility Header is considered as the upper layer protocol
    for the purposes of calculating the pseudo-header. The Upper-Layer
    Packet Length field in the pseudo-header MUST be set to the
    value of the Header Len field from the Mobility Header, multiplied
    by eight."

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 IPv4
	Author(s)	: S. Glass, M. Chandra
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mobileip-reg-revok-04.txt
	Pages		: 41
	Date		: 2002-9-12
	
This document defines a Mobile IPv4 Registration Revocation mechanism
whereby either mobility agent participating in providing Mobile IP
services to the same mobile node can notify the other mobility agent
(or co-located mobile node) of the termination of either a single, or
multiple mobility bindings, and for this notification to be
acknowledged.  Furthermore, if desired, a signaling mechanism already
defined by the base Mobile IP protocol [1] is leveraged as a way to
inform the mobile node of the revocation of this binding.

Issue 72: Forwarding from Previous Care of Address
--------------------------------------------------

http://www.piuha.net/~jarkko/publications/mipv6/issues/issue72.txt

Section 11.6.6 of the Mobile IPv6 specification describes the ability
to forward packets from a previous CoA to the new CoA as a result of
the MN connecting to a new link.

Since the BU sent to an HA on the previous link requires the same
security as the BUs sent to the MNs Home Agent (on home link), this is
quite a difficult proposition from an implementation and deployment
perspective. So,

Recommendation:
---------------

The Mobile IP WG is currently working on fast handoffs for Mobile IPv6
which deals with the aspect of forwarding packets from the previous
CoA to the new CoA (draft-ietf-mobileip-fast-mipv6-04.txt).

Hence this entire feature can effectively be dropped out of the base
Mobile IPv6 specification and pursued independently as a separate
feature for IPv6 mobility. 
All text associated with the forwarding from previous CoA will be
deleted from the current specification.

If you have any concerns or views on why this feature should be a part
of the base specification, please post them to the list.

Abstract

This document analyzes Mobile IP v4 from a deployment point of view. =
With
the popularity of wireless LAN technologies subnet roaming has become a
prominent issue. Some critical scalabilty issues for Home Agent=20
and Foreign Agents are pointed out.=20

1.  Overview and Rationale

In the 802.11 wireless lan [WiFi] network an 802.11 client connects to =
an
802.11 Access Point (AP) at the link level.Mobile-IPv4 (MIP4)[MIPv4] =
enables=20
a Mobile Node (MN), equiped with 802.11 access card, to roam from subnet =
to=20
subnet.  At present MIP4 is the  most mature and widely implemented =
standard
for network level mobility. Hence it makes sense to see what are the =
issues=20
that may limit its usefulness from a practical perspective.


2. Number of Tunnels

A hypothetical Mobile IP network is shown in the following figure.  9
subnets are shown in the figure. Each subnet has one Home Agent (HA)
and one Foreign Agent (FA). A  Mobile Nodes (MN) would have
their home network in one of these subnetworks. The FA and HA could be
seperate entities or may be the same entity (i.e. have the same IP=20
address).



        -------------------------------------
        |      [FA0]|      [FA1]|      [FA2]|
        |      [HA0]|      [HA1]|      [HA2]|
        |           |           |           |
        |[MN11]     |           |           |
        |[MN21]     |           |           |
        -------------------------------------
        |      [FA3]|      [FA4]|      [FA5]|
        |      [HA3]|      [HA4]|      [HA5]|
        |           |           |           |
        |           |           |           |
        |           |           |           |
        -------------------------------------
        |      [FA6]|      [FA7]|      [FA8]|
        |      [HA6]|      [HA7]|      [HA8]|
        |           |           |           |
        |           |           |           |
        |           |           |           |
        -------------------------------------

        [MNij] - Mobile Node j in Home Network i
        [FAi]  - Foreign Agent in network i
        [HAi]  - Home Agent in network i


Figure 1: Mobile IPv4 deployment over an address space of 9 sub-nets.

A tunnel needs to be created when a single MN roams into a foreign=20
subnet.  If there are Sn subnets, then there can be Sn*(Sn-1) or
Sn*(Sn-1)*0.5 tunnels depending on when FA and HA are distinct or=20
the same entities respectively. Thus tunnel configuration and management =

is an n^2 problem.=20

For the example in Figure 1, there would 9*8=3D72 or 36 tunnels. A large
organization that has an Class-A (or /8) address space  can have 2^16=20
subnets of 254 nodes. That can potentially imply 2^16*(2^16-1)*0.5 =3D =
about=20
2 billion tunnels.  Although, at any point of time only 2^16*254 =3D =
about
16 million of the tunnels would be active.  For an organization with=20
Class-B (or /16) address  space, those numbers would be 2^8*(2^8-1) and=20
2^8*254 or about 64,000 and 64,000 respectively.

3.  Home Agent Throughput

The second scalability issue is the throughput of the HA.  If the larget
subnet has Nn nodes, then the HA of that subnet may potentially have to
support Nn tunnels. Now if each node has bandwidht requirement of b bits =

per second, then the HA needs to have a throughput of bNn.  Thus there =
is
a linear relationship between an HA and the number of nodes in the =
subnet.=20
For example, in a 1022 node subnet with 1.0 Mbps per node demabd, the HA =

needs to have a throughput of 1Gbps.=20

4.  Foreign Agent Throughput

The third scalability issue is the throughput of the FA.  If the average
number of nodes is An nodes per subnet, then  there is the  pathological =
case=20
of all hosts of the Sn subnets roaming into one subnet.  In such a =
situation
the FA would have to have a throughput of bAnSn. To get an idea of what =
this=20
means, let us consider a Class B space with 254 node subnets. If each MN =

demands 1Mpbs, then the FA would need to pass 254*255*1=3D about 64 =
Gbps.=20
Although, in most real situations only a fraction of the nodes would =
roam=20
into one subnet. In the pathologocal case mentioned above, the number of =

tunnels that needs to be terminated by the FA is approximately the =
number of=20
nodes available in the adderss space.=20

If the pathological case needs to be supported,then it might be =
worhwhile to
have multiple FA's per subnet so that the load can be sahred. This in =
the
extreme case would result in co-located FA , which has severe =
implications in=20
the number of IP addresses used.=20

5.  Mobile Node Issues

The primary impact on an MN in the pathological case mentioned above =
would be
inability to register (hence no service ) with an FA, if the Visitor =
Table=20
in FA is limited.  Even if the Visitor Table supports 64,000 entries, =
the FA=20
would still need to add, delete, and search a large table.

Hello all,

Is there any discussion/documentation about how mobile-ipv6 and IPsec 
interact. Hesham Soliman's draft discusses security issues when IPSec is 
used to protect mobile-ipv6; but I am interested in understanding things 
like:

(a) for incoming/outgoing packets what would be the order of 
processing: IPSec, then Mobile-ipv6, or vice-versa, for e.g., (I suspect 
there is some interleaving);

(b) what happens when an IPSec tunneled 
packet comes to HA for a MN away from home? Does HA double-tunnel it to 
MN?

(c) How does a MN maintain its IPSec connection to a VPN GW while  
oving (i.e., what is the packet supposed to look like)?

I would be grateful to any pointers in this direction?

P.S.: has anyone got a system using IPSec+Mobile-ipv6 running?

For mobile IPv4 there is ongoing work and we welcome participation in the
mobile VPN design team.
For MIPv6, something similar needs to be setup (i.e. start with scenarios
and a problem statement draft) followed
by evaluation of solutions. We would welcome formation of such an effort
within the mobile IP WG.

Since this feature is implemented as part of normal HA behavior and it has been there for ages, I would like to suggest to place it to the annex of the document rather than cut it out.

In some scenarios this would still be a useful deployment of Home Agents, especially if they have a group SA among themselves. This is a special case of course, and it is not able to provide the same seamless operation as Fast Handovers would.

Subject: [mobile-ip] Mobile IPv6 - Issue 72 (Forwarding from previous
CoA)


Issue 72: Forwarding from Previous Care of Address
--------------------------------------------------

http://www.piuha.net/~jarkko/publications/mipv6/issues/issue72.txt

Section 11.6.6 of the Mobile IPv6 specification describes the ability
to forward packets from a previous CoA to the new CoA as a result of
the MN connecting to a new link.

Since the BU sent to an HA on the previous link requires the same
security as the BUs sent to the MNs Home Agent (on home link), this is
quite a difficult proposition from an implementation and deployment
perspective. So,

Recommendation:
---------------

The Mobile IP WG is currently working on fast handoffs for Mobile IPv6
which deals with the aspect of forwarding packets from the previous
CoA to the new CoA (draft-ietf-mobileip-fast-mipv6-04.txt).

Hence this entire feature can effectively be dropped out of the base
Mobile IPv6 specification and pursued independently as a separate
feature for IPv6 mobility. 
All text associated with the forwarding from previous CoA will be
deleted from the current specification.

If you have any concerns or views on why this feature should be a part
of the base specification, please post them to the list.

Regarding: draft-goswami-mobileip-analysis-v4-00.txt
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The number of active tunnels is proportional to the number of
mobiles and the number of active connections that they have (if the
traffic between the HA and the MN is not multiplexed on one tunnel).
Just becase a node may move to a subnet does not meen that there must
always be a tunnel from the HA to this subnet. While there may be
periods of time during which bi-casting or simulcasting of packets may
occur from multiple APs on multiple subnets to a MN - the variance
from proportionality is still small.

Regarding the Home Agent throughput, the HA has to receive and
transmit (at least) once each packet which it is to redirect - thus
the throughput of the HA is at least 2 times the sum of the traffic to
all the MNs which it is a home agent for. However, there is nothing
which prevents you from utilizing multiple home agents and as is well
illustrated by routers it is quite feasible to have a subnets worth of
per host routing tables (even for quite large subnets). Furthermore,
1Gbps is not a problem for the device - but may be a problem for the
links to an from the device if it is not located near a high bandwidth
interconnect point.

Regarding the throughput of the Foreign Agent, an FA only needs to
handle the traffic of the nodes it is service; for simplicity we will
assume that there is one FA on a subnet, thus this FA will never have
to handle more traffic than there can be on the subnet - since the
subnet limits the traffic!

Searching a 64K entry table can be done at evry high speed, witness
high end routers (and encoded structures such as used by the Luleå
algorithm - which supports Gbps routing with a dual processor Pentium
class machine). That the nodes will have to get an address, exchange
messages with the FA -- all the while competing with the other traffic
on this subnet -- I don't think the search time of the table will be
an issue.

Yes, it is true that number of active tunnels would be a function of
number of active MN's. Although, you just need one active MN in a foreign
network for an active tunnel.  In the worst case you would have a pair
of tunnels between every subnet.  I am not sure what you are referring
to as " variance from proportionality" - please explain what is
proportional to what.

Well, subnets can easily support 100Gbps, you just need 100 Gigabit
Ethernet ports. Each 1 GigE port can support upto 20 802.11 AP's.

Why does the MN need to get an address if the FA is not co-located ?
In a switched Ethernet network, unlike the historic shared medium type
CSMA/CD, not much competition is going on. The Registration Request/Resp
is just two UDP packets and the competition is just access to the port
(duplex) to which the FA is connected.

Tunnels only need to go to MNs, there is no need to have significantly
more (modulo the extra ones that may exist for the time of the handoff
- it is these extra tunnels which may exist due to
simulcasting/bi-casting which which make it not strictly proportional
to the number of mobiles). MNs are unlikely to have active
communication with an unbounded number of other nodes, hence it is
_very_ unlikely that you would need to have tunnels to all subnets.
(Just as it is unlikely that a fixed host has simultaneously
communication with nodes in all possible fixed subnets.)

    I was using the later.

Unless you have a full-duplex link -- the traffic has to both go to and
leave from an HA and thus is in general 2 times the sum of the traffic
to all the MNs the HA is supporting. Thus even though a MN is in a
subnet with lots of spare capacity, if the mobile's HA does not have
sufficient capacity the MN can potentially suffer a decrease in throughput
This is why HAs that have large numbers of mobile nodes will want to
be near high bandwidth access points.

    Well, subnets can easily support 100Gbps, you just need 100 Gigabit
    Ethernet ports. Each 1 GigE port can support upto 20 802.11 AP's.

Why are you going to put significant numbers of APs on an ethernet port?
Most ethernet switches are typically either 8, 12, 16, or 24 ports
with an up link of perhaps 1Gbps - but sadly they don't know about
bi-casting and simulcasting. However, from a parctical point of view,
the current 802.11b and 802.11a devices have a sufficient emitted
power that you will have a hard time putting 20 of them all connected
to the same switched ethernet box - since there are not enough
frequency channels to allow them to be with in the distance
limitations of the copper wires from the ethernet switch to the AP.
Of course you can increase these distances with fiber connections, but
then your prices per port go up considerably.

    Why does the MN need to get an address if the FA is not co-located ?
    In a switched Ethernet network, unlike the historic shared medium type
    CSMA/CD, not much competition is going on. The Registration Request/Resp
    is just two UDP packets and the competition is just access to the port
    (duplex) to which the FA is connected.

Because the ports on the switched ethernet are not significantly
faster than the ports on the router (in fact much of the time they are
the same speed). It is not the registration request/response, but
rather all the AAA traffic which is going to slow down the rate at
which MNs can generate or consume traffic when they arrive in a new
cell. So if there is an FA in the cell responsible for this cell, then
the MN need not get an address, but it still has to negocitate with
this FA for service. Where as if the FA is co-located with the MN, the
MN's FA has to get an address - but J-O Vatn and I showed that this
can be very fast. But following this there is still the matter of
should the subnet provide service to this MN+FA. My key point was that

Hi Gerald/Chip, thanks for your comments. I am trying to see where I
can incorporate your comments in the draft. In that regard I have
the following questions.

1. Can you please tell me what exactly are bicasting and simulcasting.
2. Why do you need to create tunnels to the MN (if the FA is not
co-located) ?
3. I do not see why you need more than one tunnel to communicate with
one MN.
4. Some situations I have described are possible, however unlikely. If
you have
   100 MN's in a Home Network, each of them potentially can roam into a
different
   foreign network.
5. Why do you not want to connect 25 AP's to a Ethernet port ?
   I have no comment on the economic consequence of doing so, but it is
possible
   technically. 
6. Do you have a number for the  bandwidth consumed by AAA and Mobile IP
registration ?
   I am pretty sure that number is insignificant - say 2 packets of 100
bytes per
   handoff from MN to FA. Then say 4 packets of 200 bytes from FA to
Diameter server. 
   That is 1000 bytes per handoff - 8000 bits - takes about 80 micro
seconds 
   (8000/100,000,000) on Fast Ethernet.   Is it easy to do a lookup in a
table
   of 64K entries in 80 micro seconds ?
7. Moreover the FA that terminates the tunnels has to look up the L2
address of the
   visiting MN for every IP packet tunneled to it. So would not the
lookup process
   be the bottleneck if you have 64K MN roam into one sub-network ?

"s. goswami" <sgoswami@umich.edu> response:
    Yes, it is true that number of active tunnels would be a function of
    number of active MN's. Although, you just need one active MN in a
foreign
    network for an active tunnel.  In the worst case you would have a
pair
    of tunnels between every subnet.  I am not sure what you are
referring
    to as " variance from proportionality" - please explain what is
    proportional to what.

Tunnels only need to go to MNs, there is no need to have significantly
more (modulo the extra ones that may exist for the time of the handoff
- it is these extra tunnels which may exist due to
simulcasting/bi-casting which which make it not strictly proportional
to the number of mobiles). MNs are unlikely to have active
communication with an unbounded number of other nodes, hence it is
_very_ unlikely that you would need to have tunnels to all subnets.
(Just as it is unlikely that a fixed host has simultaneously
communication with nodes in all possible fixed subnets.)

    The measure of throughput depends on whether it is the sum of
maximum
    input and output or just the maximum output, either one is okay.
    I was using the later.

Unless you have a full-duplex link -- the traffic has to both go to and
leave from an HA and thus is in general 2 times the sum of the traffic
to all the MNs the HA is supporting. Thus even though a MN is in a
subnet with lots of spare capacity, if the mobile's HA does not have
sufficient capacity the MN can potentially suffer a decrease in
throughput
This is why HAs that have large numbers of mobile nodes will want to
be near high bandwidth access points.

    Well, subnets can easily support 100Gbps, you just need 100 Gigabit
    Ethernet ports. Each 1 GigE port can support upto 20 802.11 AP's.

Why are you going to put significant numbers of APs on an ethernet port?
Most ethernet switches are typically either 8, 12, 16, or 24 ports
with an up link of perhaps 1Gbps - but sadly they don't know about
bi-casting and simulcasting. However, from a parctical point of view,
the current 802.11b and 802.11a devices have a sufficient emitted
power that you will have a hard time putting 20 of them all connected
to the same switched ethernet box - since there are not enough
frequency channels to allow them to be with in the distance
limitations of the copper wires from the ethernet switch to the AP.
Of course you can increase these distances with fiber connections, but
then your prices per port go up considerably.

    Why does the MN need to get an address if the FA is not co-located ?
    In a switched Ethernet network, unlike the historic shared medium
type
    CSMA/CD, not much competition is going on. The Registration
Request/Resp
    is just two UDP packets and the competition is just access to the
port
    (duplex) to which the FA is connected.

Because the ports on the switched ethernet are not significantly
faster than the ports on the router (in fact much of the time they are
the same speed). It is not the registration request/response, but
rather all the AAA traffic which is going to slow down the rate at
which MNs can generate or consume traffic when they arrive in a new
cell. So if there is an FA in the cell responsible for this cell, then
the MN need not get an address, but it still has to negocitate with
this FA for service. Where as if the FA is co-located with the MN, the
MN's FA has to get an address - but J-O Vatn and I showed that this
can be very fast. But following this there is still the matter of
should the subnet provide service to this MN+FA. My key point was that
in comparison to the messaging times the table lookup is small.

 In your previous mail you wrote:

   Is there any discussion/documentation about how mobile-ipv6 and IPsec 

=> there is a private discussion (in order to produce a draft) about
the special case of MN-HA communications.

   interact. Hesham Soliman's draft discusses security issues when IPSec is 
   used to protect mobile-ipv6; but I am interested in understanding things 
   like:
   
   (a) for incoming/outgoing packets what would be the order of 
   processing: IPSec, then Mobile-ipv6, or vice-versa, for e.g., (I suspect 
   there is some interleaving);
   
=> for incoming the answer is simple because it follows the order
of headers. For outgoing packets IPsec must be first and Mobile-IPv6
after according to the (updated ASAP) relevant section in the draft.

   (b) what happens when an IPSec tunneled 
   packet comes to HA for a MN away from home? Does HA double-tunnel it to 
   MN?
   
=> what is the end of the tunnel? If it is the MN this should give
a double-tunnel, if it is the HA the packet is decapsulated and
recapsulated.

   (c) How does a MN maintain its IPSec connection to a VPN GW while  
   moving (i.e., what is the packet supposed to look like)?
   
=> this is one point I am interested to (the case where the VPN GW and
the HA is the same box).

   I would be grateful to any pointers in this direction?
   
=> from the IPsec point of view you can read my draft
(draft-dupont-ipsec-mipv6-01.txt). From the MIPv6 you have to wait a bit...

   P.S.: has anyone got a system using IPSec+Mobile-ipv6 running?
   
=> I have one based on KAME/racoon...

Okay Chip, you know more about Mobile-IP and Communications systems
than me.  Let us stick to IP and 802.11 for the time being.

From you description of bicasting and simulcasting, it appears to me
that it all happens in the physical and link layer. How common are
those in 802.11 environment ? Has the IEEE defined their position in
this
regard ? If those things happen, they actually worsen the situation for
HA - don't they ? 

Actually if you do simulcasting (if it is possible to do at all), the
actual number can be higher by a factor equal to the number of
neighboring AP's, which in 802.11b is 6 - more than the x2 you
mentioned.

You have been mentioning about some physical limit - are those still
applicable if you use fiber and repeaters ?  For example, you can also
put 6
802.11a AP's side by side if you want or 3 802.11b AP's, can not you? 
That lets you use 9 AP's in the same area, right? You can now connect
these to a L2 switch , right ?

Okay, so you are saying it is no big deal to do fast lookup in a 64K
table, right ? I have not heard of Effnet, but that name has a pretty
embarrassing meaning in English.

You have mentioned some interesting numbers, " You seem to be ignoring
the interframe spacing, the headers, ... .The average service time for a
64 byte packet by a Lucent WavePOINT-II AP is 918 usec (microseconds) on
the downlink and 190usec on the uplink.". Do you have a breakdown of
these numbers?  From MN to AP, AP to Switch, Switch to whatever? What do
these
64 byte packets contain?

As for 64K MN's sharing the same RF spectrum, I would not limit myself
to what is available today. You can in fact use directional/adaptive
antennas etc. to do Spatial Division Multiplexing of radio waves.

Let me know, when I have cleared your communications tests.

Subject: Re: [mobile-ip] Simple Analysis of Mobile IP v4

Please note that I am not sending this to the mailing list.

It would appear from your questions and your draft that you don't
actually understand Mobile IP and have not read very much about the
protocol. It would also appear that you have very little actual
practical knowledge of communication systems.

    1. Can you please tell me what exactly are bicasting and
simulcasting.
Bi-casting -- involves sending copies of the packet to the mobile via
two routes (the existing AP and the "new" AP) - thus it can
substantially decrease loss and provide a smooth handover even of the
two networks are of different types.

Simulcasting -- extends this to be potentially N different copies via
N different links.

    2. Why do you need to create tunnels to the MN (if the FA is not
    co-located) ?

You are going to tunnel the traffic from the home agent at least to the
FA.
In the case of the co-located FA, this means all the way to the MN.

    3. I do not see why you need more than one tunnel to communicate
with
    one MN.

See bi-casting and simulcasting above.

    4. Some situations I have described are possible, however unlikely.
If
    you have
    100 MN's in a Home Network, each of them potentially can roam into a
    different
    foreign network.

Certainly and each will get traffic forwarded to it from its home
agent. Except for periods when you are bi-casting or simulcasting -
this should result in ~2 times the total traffic as would be on the
various networks.

    5. Why do you not want to connect 25 AP's to a Ethernet port ?
    I have no comment on the economic consequence of doing so, but it is
    possible
    technically. 

You don't seem to understand that there is a limit on the length of
the cable that you can attach to the port of hub/switch/router when
using 100Tx -- which limits how far away the AP can be. {I'd suggest
you look this up in the 100Tx specification.} Then consider the
signal strength of the 802.11b AP. Knowing what the likley attenuation
is in a building at this frequency the signal will fall off as roughly
1/(r^2.5)
{note that it is 2.5 rather than 2 because it is not free space}.
In addition, you only have a small number of frequency channels for
high rate communication which don't over lap (at best 4 of them).
Now think about how many access points you can locate with the wiring
distance of 100Tx while avoiding frequency overlaps. You will see the
number is well below 25.

    6. Do you have a number for the  bandwidth consumed by AAA and
Mobile IP
    registration ?
    I am pretty sure that number is insignificant - say 2 packets of 100
    bytes per
    handoff from MN to FA. Then say 4 packets of 200 bytes from FA to
    Diameter server. 
    That is 1000 bytes per handoff - 8000 bits - takes about 80 micro
    seconds 
    (8000/100,000,000) on Fast Ethernet.   Is it easy to do a lookup in
a
    table
    of 64K entries in 80 micro seconds ?

You seem to be ignoring the interframe spacing, the headers, ... .
The average service time for a 64 byte packet by a Lucent WavePOINT-II
AP is 918 usec (microseconds) on the downlink and 190usec on the uplink.

Researchs at Luleå in Sweden have show how to do very fast lookup for
routing or filtering. This was the basis of a company Effnet:
 
http://www.effnet.com/sites/effnet/setup/eng/index.asp?section=solutions
&content=solutions_toolkit_fwdeng

As noted in my earlier message they can search backbone router sized
lookup tables at speeds sufficient to support 1Gbps ethernet
interfaces using a dual processor Pentium machine -- in _software_ not
in hardware. The above link shows their scaling to 10Gbps link speeds.


    7. Moreover the FA that terminates the tunnels has to look up the L2
    address of the
    visiting MN for every IP packet tunneled to it. So would not the
    lookup process
    be the bottleneck if you have 64K MN roam into one sub-network ?

The lookup process will not be the bottleneck, the problem will be
that the 64K nodes have to divide the limited radio spectrum!

The IP Source Address in Registration request is bound by section
3.6.1.1 (attached below) of RFC 3220.

I urge the WG chairs to change the last MUST to a MAY. After this change
the
Sentence would read 

" In all other circumstances, the IP source address MAY be the mobile
node's home address."

I have found no reason why this is a MUST rather than a MAY.

3.6.1.1. IP Fields

   This section provides the specific rules by which mobile nodes pick
   values for the IP header fields of a Registration Request.

   IP Source Address:

      -  When registering on a foreign network with a co-located care-of
         address, the IP source address MUST be the care-of address.

      -  Otherwise, if the mobile node does not have a home address, the
         IP source address MUST be 0.0.0.0.

      -  In all other circumstances, the IP source address MUST be the
         mobile node's home address.

    Okay Chip, you know more about Mobile-IP and Communications systems
    than me.  Let us stick to IP and 802.11 for the time being.

Then why are _you_ writing internet drafts?

    >From you description of bicasting and simulcasting, it appears to me
    that it all happens in the physical and link layer. How common are
    those in 802.11 environment ? Has the IEEE defined their position in
    this
    regard ? If those things happen, they actually worsen the situation for
    HA - don't they ? 

The IEEE is concerned with the physical and link layer, while IETF is
concerned with the network layer and above. Bicasting and simulcasting
can be done by Mobile IP (since a HA sends copies of packets to all IP
addresses which are register for a given host). This functionality has
been there since the initial definition of Mobile IP. While
duplication of packets may increase traffic at times when the mobile
is about to move or when it is in a poor reception area for multiple
cells, it really reduces traffic since it increases the probability
that the packet will be delivered and the packet will not have to be
retransmitted from the source machine!

    Actually if you do simulcasting (if it is possible to do at all), the
    actual number can be higher by a factor equal to the number of
    neighboring AP's, which in 802.11b is 6 - more than the x2 you
    mentioned.

If you think about it (geometrically) there is generally little reason
to deliver the packet from more than 3 APs (in fact most of the time
only 2) since a node is either in a cell or moving toward the edge of
a cell (in which case it is moving in some direction - and packets
only need to be sent from these directions). Note also that if you are
doing simulcasting locally (i.e., invisibly to Mobile IP but using L2
information) then you can take one stream from the HA to an AP and
locally replicate this to the other APs. One of my students did a
licentiate thesis which exploited this in 1998. Note that this need
not appreciably increase the use of the wireless channels - since you
only deliver copies of packets to the APs and only send them across
the link when the MN has registered with this AP.

    You have been mentioning about some physical limit - are those still
    applicable if you use fiber and repeaters ?  For example, you can also
    put 6
    802.11a AP's side by side if you want or 3 802.11b AP's, can not you? 
    That lets you use 9 AP's in the same area, right? You can now connect
    these to a L2 switch , right ?

Fiber and repeaters are more expensive than 100Tx ports.  Yes you can
put several APs together, but you won't be able to use these
frequencies again until you are 2 * 100m away (in the case of
802.11b), i.e., in frequency re-use you can not use the same frequency
in an adjacent cell, thus you generally want to have one cell in between.

    Okay, so you are saying it is no big deal to do fast lookup in a 64K
    table, right ? I have not heard of Effnet, but that name has a pretty
    embarrassing meaning in English.


See the publications of Mikael Degermark
(http://www.cdt.luth.se/~micke/publications.html) for more information.


    You have mentioned some interesting numbers, " You seem to be ignoring
    the interframe spacing, the headers, ... .The average service time for a
    64 byte packet by a Lucent WavePOINT-II AP is 918 usec (microseconds) on
    the downlink and 190usec on the uplink.". Do you have a breakdown of
    these numbers?  From MN to AP, AP to Switch, Switch to whatever? What do
    these
    64 byte packets contain?

64 bytes of payload

    As for 64K MN's sharing the same RF spectrum, I would not limit myself
    to what is available today. You can in fact use directional/adaptive
    antennas etc. to do Spatial Division Multiplexing of radio waves.

Well if you are going to only consider the maximum possible case, then
why not consider entangled quantuum states, thus you have faster than
speed of light communication across arbitrary distance? Of course you
may have to wait a year or more before this will be available in Radio Shack.
Note that the look up time is no longer relevant, because you
communicate directly from the source to the destination and you don't
need any intervening network! 

    Let me know, when I have cleared your communications tests.

As far as I know you are not enrolled and have not been enrolled in
any of my courses - so this is not a decision I have to make.

Hannu,

The proposal isn't to drop it the feature, but to move it to a separate
document. The fast handover document already contains the basic functionallity,
so it is more logical to put it into that document.

Handovers would.

I'm not sure I understand your comment. This functionality has nothing to do
with the Home Agent, it has to do with the Access Router. Sometimes an Access
Router that provides this functionality is called an "on-link" Home Agent, is
that what you are talking about? If so, I don't understand your comment about an
SA. An SA among a group of such "on-link" Home Agents isn't equivalent to an SA
between the "on-link" Home Agents and the Mobile Node. Should such an SA exist,
the Mobile Node would have to verify it, and the pre-existence of such an SA
between an Access Router and a random Mobile Node is highly unlikely in the
first place. So the security aspects of providing this functionality are
currently undefined. Rather than delay the base spec any longer to define them,
why not consolidate the functionality to another spec which is trying to provide
that functionality, and deal with the security aspects at our leisure there?

            jak

As for "bicasting" and "simulcasting", no one does those as far as I
know
in a practical situation. By the way, these words are not even used in
any RFC or ID, so you have to define them in an ID. You are swamping
your network with 5x more wasted packets ! Why would you like to do it
in the first place ? Does not make any sense ! 

Can you find out where your MN is, let alone its velocity and direction?
Due
to lack of that knowledge, you have to do multicasting to 6 AP's -  what
a
waste!

An AP roughly covers an area of 100m is radius, right? Sure frequency
reuse
is an issue, but if I want to have 500Mbps of bandwidth in my living
room
I can do that by running 9 AP's  side-by-side, right ? Moreover,  how
much does  a repeater cost ?  $25 ? How much does fiber cost ? $2 /
meter ? These
are not hugely expensive items.

The 64 bytes of payload of what type ? TCP ACKS , Ethernet , what ? So
the 
actual number of bytes you are sending down is probably twice that. Do
you
have any clue on where the packets are spending their time ? What you
are
stating is a very crude number, not very useful.  More research is
needed
here ! 

With all due respect to your comments on " entangled quantuum states",
what
are those ? Did you invent them?  But, Spatial Division Multiplexing
(SDM)
is here now - there are several companies that are pursuing that angle. 

Chip, are you going to pay me to not write Internet Drafts ?  Rate would
be
$1000 per ID I do not write - I will quit my job right now.

Subject: Re: [mobile-ip] Simple Analysis of Mobile IP v4

    Okay Chip, you know more about Mobile-IP and Communications systems
    than me.  Let us stick to IP and 802.11 for the time being.

Then why are _you_ writing internet drafts?

    >From you description of bicasting and simulcasting, it appears to
me
    that it all happens in the physical and link layer. How common are
    those in 802.11 environment ? Has the IEEE defined their position in
    this
    regard ? If those things happen, they actually worsen the situation
for
    HA - don't they ? 

The IEEE is concerned with the physical and link layer, while IETF is
concerned with the network layer and aove. Bicasting and simulcasting
can be done by Mobile IP (since a HA sends copies of packets to all IP
addresses which are register for a given host). This functionality has
been there since the initial definition of Mobile IP. While
duplication of packets may increase traffic at times when the mobile
is about to move or when it is in a poor reception area for multiple
cells, it really reduces traffic since it increases the probability
that the packet will be delivered and the packet will not have to be
retransmitted from the source machine!

    Actually if you do simulcasting (if it is possible to do at all),
the
    actual number can be higher by a factor equal to the number of
    neighboring AP's, which in 802.11b is 6 - more than the x2 you
    mentioned.

If you think about it (geometrically) there is generally little reason
to deliver the packet from more than 3 APs (in fact most of the time
only 2) since a node is either in a cell or moving toward the edge of
a cell (in which case it is moving in some direction - and packets
only need to be sent from these directions). Note also that if you are
doing simulcasting locally (i.e., invisibly to Mobile IP but using L2
information) then you can take one stream from the HA to an AP and
locally replicate this to the other APs. One of my students did a
licentiate thesis which exploited this in 1998. Note that this need
not appreciably increase the use of the wireless channels - since you
only deliver copies of packets to the APs and only send them across
the link when the MN has registered with this AP.

    You have been mentioning about some physical limit - are those still
    applicable if you use fiber and repeaters ?  For example, you can
also
    put 6
    802.11a AP's side by side if you want or 3 802.11b AP's, can not
you? 
    That lets you use 9 AP's in the same area, right? You can now
connect
    these to a L2 switch , right ?

Fiber and repeaters are more expensive than 100Tx ports.  Yes you can
put several APs together, but you won't be able to use these
frequencies again until you are 2 * 100m away (in the case of
802.11b), i.e., in frequency re-use you can not use the same frequency
in an adjacent cell, thus you generally want to have one cell in
between.

    Okay, so you are saying it is no big deal to do fast lookup in a 64K
    table, right ? I have not heard of Effnet, but that name has a
pretty
    embarrassing meaning in English.


See the publications of Mikael Degermark
(http://www.cdt.luth.se/~micke/publications.html) for more information.


    You have mentioned some interesting numbers, " You seem to be
ignoring
    the interframe spacing, the headers, ... .The average service time
for a
    64 byte packet by a Lucent WavePOINT-II AP is 918 usec
(microseconds) on
    the downlink and 190usec on the uplink.". Do you have a breakdown of
    these numbers?  From MN to AP, AP to Switch, Switch to whatever?
What do
    these
    64 byte packets contain?

64 bytes of payload

    As for 64K MN's sharing the same RF spectrum, I would not limit
myself
    to what is available today. You can in fact use directional/adaptive
    antennas etc. to do Spatial Division Multiplexing of radio waves.

Well if you are going to only consider the maximum possible case, then
why not consider entangled quantuum states, thus you have faster tha
speed of light communication across arbitrary distance? Of course you
may have to wait a year or more before this will be available in Radio
Shack.
Note that the look up time is no longer relevant, because you
communicate directly from the source to the destination and you don't
need any intervening network! 

    Let me know, when I have cleared your communications tests.

As far as I know you are not enrolled and have not been enrolled in
any of my courses - so this is not a decision I have to make.

Chip

Doing an AAA transaction from scratch when the mobile hands off is likely to
slow down handover considerably.
Seamboy is working on protocol for context transfer that would allow the old
access point to transfer the AAA
context to the new. Also, the 802.11f (IAPP) specification has some discussion
about this, thought I don't know how
far they have gone in the direction of design.

Hello Jim,

At this point, since we are trying to finish up comments
received during Last Call, I'd rather try to avoid making
major document reorganizations.  I don't think the forwarding
mechanism described in the base specification belongs in
the Fast Handover document, because it doesn't define any
new messages or protocol.

Regards,
Charlie P.

James

Currently as the base specification describes the functionality it is implemented with Home Agent functionality. There is nothing in addition to the "normal" Home Agent behavior. This feature doesn't set any additional requirements on access router nor home agent. If an access router has home agent support enabled and the SA in place you have the feature. There is nothing to be defined. The SA is the very same SA as with the Home Agent, provided that it can be shared among a number of home agents.  We don't need to describe hoe this SA is set in place, as we don't define how we set the SA for the home agent, do we.

If the feature is to be moved to some other document, please not that there is in the base specification some references to it for MN. Particularly the behavior of the Home Agent list needs to be also changed if the section "11.6.6.Forwarding from a Previous care-Of Address" is moved out of the doc. Otherwise the base line is referring to something that doesn't exists. If the home agent list processing description is changed, the conformance is affected and the MN implementations need to be updated.

Hannu,

been there for ages, I would like to suggest to place it to the annex of the
document rather than cut it out.

The proposal isn't to drop it the feature, but to move it to a separate
document. The fast handover document already contains the basic functionallity,
so it is more logical to put it into that document.

Handovers would.

I'm not sure I understand your comment. This functionality has nothing to do
with the Home Agent, it has to do with the Access Router. Sometimes an Access
Router that provides this functionality is called an "on-link" Home Agent, is
that what you are talking about? If so, I don't understand your comment about an
SA. An SA among a group of such "on-link" Home Agents isn't equivalent to an SA
between the "on-link" Home Agents and the Mobile Node. Should such an SA exist,
the Mobile Node would have to verify it, and the pre-existence of such an SA
between an Access Router and a random Mobile Node is highly unlikely in the
first place. So the security aspects of providing this functionality are
currently undefined. Rather than delay the base spec any longer to define them,
why not consolidate the functionality to another spec which is trying to provide
that functionality, and deal with the security aspects at our leisure there?

FBU can contain New CoA as the address to which previous
CoA is bound.

However, a clarification: v05 proposes that forwarding be done from
previous
CoA to New AR's IP address. This would allow faster forwarding when the
MN sends
FBU from the new link, since it does not have to wait until it configures

a new CoA. Even when FBU is sent from the previous link, binding
previous CoA to New AR's IP address is safer since the New AR may
not like the New CoA (proposed in HI).

> Currently as the base specification describes the functionality it is
implemented with Home Agent functionality. There is nothing in addition to the
"normal" Home Agent behavior. This feature doesn't set any additional
requirements on access router nor home agent. If an access router has home agent
support enabled and the SA in place you have the feature. There is nothing to be
defined. The SA is the very same SA as with the Home Agent, provided that it can
be shared among a number of home agents.  We don't need to describe hoe this SA
is set in place, as we don't define how we set the SA for the home agent, do we.
>

The document refers to this functionality in the context of access routers, not
home agents. For example,
see Section 7.2:

  -  To allow a mobile node to send a Binding Update to a router on
       the link on which its previous care-of address is located, for
       purposes of establishing forwarding from this previous care-of
       address to its new care-of address (Section 11.6.6).

There are other such references throughout the document.

This confusion (is it an access router functionality or a home agent
functionality?) is part of the reason why I think it should be moved into the
fast handover document.

From my reading of the rest of the spec, with the exception of FoPCoA, there are
no requirements put on the access router whatsoever, so a standard IPv6 router
could be used. I believe this was one of the original design goals of MIPv6, for
example, see Section 2:

    -  There is no longer any need to deploy special routers as
       "foreign agents" as are used in Mobile IPv4.  In Mobile IPv6,
       mobile nodes make use of IPv6 features, to operate in any
       location without any special support required from the local
       router.

This feature compromises this basic design goal, and I believe it should be
moved to the fast handover spec, which explicitly requires changes in the access
router. Another possibility is that this design goal could be removed from the
MIPv6 spec, but I think that would be a mistake, since the rest of the spec
conforms with the design goal. Or the MIP group could make a recommendation that
all IPv6 routers be required to implement this functionality, and take the issue
to the IPv6 Working Group. Of these three, I think the easiest is to move it
into a spec that discusses MIPv6 handover directly and talks about specialized
MIPv6 access router functionality.

A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries.


        RFC 3344

        Title:	    IP Mobility Support for IPv4
        Author(s):  C. Perkins, Ed.
        Status:	    Standards Track

This document specifies protocol enhancements that allow transparent
routing of IP datagrams to mobile nodes in the Internet.  Each
mobile node is always identified by its home address, regardless of
its current point of attachment to the Internet.  While situated
away from its home, a mobile node is also associated with a
care-of address, which provides information about its current
point of attachment to the Internet.  The protocol provides for
registering the care-of address with a home agent.  The home agent
sends datagrams destined for the mobile node through a tunnel to
the care-of address.  After arriving at the end of the tunnel, each
datagram is then delivered to the mobile node.

This document is a product of the IP Routing for Wireless/Mobile Hosts
Working Group of the IETF.

This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for
the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the
"Internet Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution
of this memo is unlimited.

Jim has a good point. Personally, I think, it should be removed from the
main body of Base MIPv6 draft, however a reference to it can be made in the
appendix section to point to the MIPv6 fast handover document for further
discussion.

James,

in section 8.3 of MIPv6 spec we have a list of shoulds against  "all IPv6 routers". Further we say in section 10.2

      " If the node is not a router that implements home agent
       functionality, then the node MUST reject the Binding Update
       and MUST return a Binding Acknowledgement to the mobile node,
       in which the Status field is set to 132 (home registration not
       supported). "

So there are already recommendations for all routers. 

There seems to be a number of ways to interpret the text. Mine is that that BUs are sent to CNs and Home Agents, not to (access)routers. I agree that this mentioned in the context of handovers but so are all the other BUs, even the BU to set up the primary care-of address registration to the Home Agent. At least I fail to see the difference.

Obviously, I haven't been able to express/convince that this feature is a home agent feature at the visited link router. If the feature is turned of then you happen to have a Home Agent at your visited link. However, the functionality requires that the home agent feature is enabled there (in the access router), and the home agent support is advertised through Router Advertisements. Or alternatively, the MN may try to discover the home agent. This would not work with any other access router rather the one with the home agent feature on.  


Regards Hannu

"normal" Home Agent behavior. This feature doesn't set any additional
requirements on access router nor home agent. If an access router has home agent
support enabled and the SA in place you have the feature. There is nothing to be
defined. The SA is the very same SA as with the Home Agent, provided that it can
be shared among a number of home agents.  We don't need to describe hoe this SA
is set in place, as we don't define how we set the SA for the home agent, do we.
>

The document refers to this functionality in the context of access routers, not
home agents. For example,
see Section 7.2:

  -  To allow a mobile node to send a Binding Update to a router on
       the link on which its previous care-of address is located, for
       purposes of establishing forwarding from this previous care-of
       address to its new care-of address (Section 11.6.6).

There are other such references throughout the document.

This confusion (is it an access router functionality or a home agent
functionality?) is part of the reason why I think it should be moved into the
fast handover document.

From my reading of the rest of the spec, with the exception of FoPCoA, there are
no requirements put on the access router whatsoever, so a standard IPv6 router
could be used. I believe this was one of the original design goals of MIPv6, for
example, see Section 2:

    -  There is no longer any need to deploy special routers as
       "foreign agents" as are used in Mobile IPv4.  In Mobile IPv6,
       mobile nodes make use of IPv6 features, to operate in any
       location without any special support required from the local
       router.

This feature compromises this basic design goal, and I believe it should be
moved to the fast handover spec, which explicitly requires changes in the access
router. Another possibility is that this design goal could be removed from the
MIPv6 spec, but I think that would be a mistake, since the rest of the spec
conforms with the design goal. Or the MIP group could make a recommendation that
all IPv6 routers be required to implement this functionality, and take the issue
to the IPv6 Working Group. Of these three, I think the easiest is to move it
into a spec that discusses MIPv6 handover directly and talks about specialized
MIPv6 access router functionality.

=> The main problem here is how to setup security
with random ARs. This is _not_ the same as a HA
where there is a strong assumption that most of 
the time manual config will be used. This is 
why the issue needs to be investigated in a lot
more detail than the MIPv6 spec can do now given 
the time limitations and difficulty of the problem.
Using manual config with random ARs is not
going to be useful in most deployment cases.

Fully agreed.

However, and this is the reason of the discussion and concern I have. There are scenarios where forwarding from previous COA is useful. Namely when the Home Agents (the home, and all the visited link home agents) have a common group SA. We don't need to describe how this SA is set, but just note that this is a possibility as the spec has it already (in terms of MN home agent list functionality).

=> The main problem here is how to setup security
with random ARs. This is _not_ the same as a HA
where there is a strong assumption that most of 
the time manual config will be used. This is 
why the issue needs to be investigated in a lot
more detail than the MIPv6 spec can do now given 
the time limitations and difficulty of the problem.
Using manual config with random ARs is not
going to be useful in most deployment cases.

As for GPS enabled locations, these are not going to work
inside large  buildings - hence of limited use as
most 802.11 networks are located inside buldings.

As for the UMD paper you mentioned, that is somewhat irrelevant to
what I was saying in my draft. All I was saying is if the FA has
a large visitor table, then additional latency would be incurred
during handoffs. This additional latency is on top on any
L2 latency and AAA server related latenciesa. Also, if you have
noticed the title of the draft was " Simple Analysis of Mobile IP v4",
not 802.11 as you seem to have assumed.

Actually the load on FA would be even worse during normal data
transfer (after registration) as it would have to detunnel every
IP packet by looking into a table with 64K entries (for 64K visitors).

Hello Hesham,

It's not the job of the base Mobile IP specification to
describe how that security association would be established.

> => The main problem here is how to setup security
> with random ARs. This is _not_ the same as a HA

That's not an assumption I have ever made.
I have typically assumed that there would be
other methods, compatible with the Mobile IP
requirements, but non-manual methods, for
creating the association.

I think it's a mistake to require that every
possible security application related to Mobile
IP has to be put in the Mobile IP specification.
I think the specification should be limited to
what to do with Binding Updates.

Again, I don't think that your constraint should
affect the underlying feature description.

Charlie P.

How does this announcement, or content, differ from the
August 14 announcement from the rfc editor for the same
RFC? Both appear to be identical (pages, characters, etc.)
to me. Earlier announcement attached. Thanks for any
clarification.

This document specifies protocol enhancements that allow transparent
routing of IP datagrams to mobile nodes in the Internet.  Each
mobile node is always identified by its home address, regardless of
its current point of attachment to the Internet.  While situated
away from its home, a mobile node is also associated with a
care-of address, which provides information about its current
point of attachment to the Internet.  The protocol provides for
registering the care-of address with a home agent.  The home agent
sends datagrams destined for the mobile node through a tunnel to
the care-of address.  After arriving at the end of the tunnel, each
datagram is then delivered to the mobile node.

This document is a product of the IP Routing for Wireless/Mobile Hosts
Working Group of the IETF.

This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for
the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the
"Internet Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution
of this memo is unlimited.

This announcement is sent to the IETF list and the RFC-DIST list.
Requests to be added to or deleted from the IETF distribution list
should be sent to IETF-REQUEST@IETF.ORG.  Requests to be
added to or deleted from the RFC-DIST distribution list should
be sent to RFC-DIST-REQUEST@RFC-EDITOR.ORG.

This only applies if the FoPCoA functionality is included in the specification.
If it is removed, there is no reason for a standard  IPv6 router to ever
interpret Binding Update. This text would need to be removed if FoPCoA is.

> There seems to be a number of ways to interpret the text. Mine is that that
BUs are sent to CNs and Home Agents, not to (access)routers. I agree that this
mentioned in the context of handovers but so are all the other BUs, even the BU
to set up the primary care-of address registration to the Home Agent. At least I
fail to see the difference.
>

FoPCoA requires a BU to be sent to the AR. If the AR implements HA
functionality, then it will do FoPCoA. If not, then it will do as the text
you've cited above. The difference is that IPv6 routers do not typically
implement HA functionality. Thus, this would be requiring additional
functionality of all IPv6 routers.

> Obviously, I haven't been able to express/convince that this feature is a home
agent feature at the visited link router. If the feature is turned of then you
happen to have a Home Agent at your visited link. However, the functionality
requires that the home agent feature is enabled there (in the access router),
and the home agent support is advertised through Router Advertisements. Or
alternatively, the MN may try to discover the home agent. This would not work
with any other access router rather the one with the home agent feature on.
>

I think the base spec should work with any IPv6 router. As far as I know, base
IPv6 routers don't require HA functionality. Anything else should be put into
separate document. The fast handover spec needs to have some text in it about
how an MN determines whether an AR can do fast handover, of course.

The MIPv6 needed to get finished yesterday. I don't think we need to delay more
until all the various little details of what it means to have an AR supply
"on-link" HA functionality to a random MN are worked out.

I don't think anyone is arguing that prev-CoA-forwarding would not be
useful. It is potentially very useful. There's been two kinds of
arguments against placing it in the base RFC. One, that there would be
a better place for it in the fast handoffs work. Two, while the security
story is technically correct, it isn't necessarily practically deployable.

Unfortunately, we don't have any publicly available, specified magic that
can take care of this. We *do* allow home agent discovery but at the same
time we require the security set-up for these HAs to be in place beforehand.

When a set of HAs take care of a common set of MNs, we can either set all
combinations of SAs manually, or use dynamic keying where the HA side of
the security policy data base ties the specific user identities with
their rightfully owned home addresses. The security policy data base
could be automatically shared between the HAs.

However, if we try to extend this to all routers within a specific area
we run into some additional trouble. One problem is that the number of
SAs in the manual case grows unreasonably large when each MN needs an
SA to every place where it might possibly go to. This also applies to
the address-specific policy data base that we need even if dynamic keying
is used. In the multiple-HA case the size of the necessary data bases
is proportional to the number of home addresses. In the prev-coa-forwarding
case its proportional to the number of interface IDs times the number of
prefixes.

Since all of this is pretty much based on addresses, we need
to ensure address uniqueness even for care-of addresses on the whole
network and not just at one link. There may be other issues that we
haven't thought of -- has someone done this on a large scale somewhere?
Anyway, none of the issues are unsolvable but I'm not convinced that
we have all the answers yet that we can confidently claim that the
thing works and can be deployed. (I'd like to be convinced otherwise,
perhaps some of you have all the answers.)

The mimimum cost of a Cajun P550 system was used to be
$20,000 and it did not include a RFC2002 FA.  The P550 chassis
fabric can do 45Gbps and 18 mpps. That would be less than the
64Gbps needed to support the 64K MN's with 1Mbps need, by the way.

Are they still selling the switch ? Does not look like.

As for position info, the ehaku approach looks promising. Although
it comes with the penality of static environment and rather
long manual calibration time. Moreover , it appears that they depend on
RSSI value, which can be distorted if an AP is moved or if a large
object moves in. Finally, the MN needs to provide the RSSI values.
How is that done - needs extra software on the MN.

You are using Linux with Mobile Extensions - that is fine. But , how
does Ehaku get the RSSI over to the AP ? It is not carried in any of the
802.11 frames, is it ? Implies they  have proprietary protocol
defined between the MN and the AP, right ?  Also remember that Mobile IP
does not need an wireless link to work.

For cut-through routing you need specialized hardware , do not you ?
Sure you can build a $5000 FA - but is not that more expensive than your
gateway router ?

Hi Charlie,

Unfortunately, it is.

I think the IESG is no longer allowing the IPsec "pixie dust" approach, where a
spec says that "IPsec shall be used" without specifying how it will be used. So
if FoPCoA is put into the spec, then we will have to state how the IPsec
security association is set up. Thomas and Erik can correct me if I am wrong.

I agree. I also think it it is a mistake to try to put all possible
optimizations into the base spec. The fast handoff draft seems like a good place
where we can move the functionality.

Hello Jim,

That cannot be.  All the Mobile IP spec should say is how
the Binding Update needs to be authenticated.  Pytting all
security establishments into the base specification is
clearly un-doable.  By now, I think it's obvious that the
return routability should have been in another specification,
as I suggested two years ago.  But I am in no way suggesting
that we do so now.  I want to get this revised draft to the
IESG as soon as possible.

> I think the IESG is no longer allowing the IPsec "pixie dust" approach,

You are setting up a straw man beside me and knocking
that over.  I didn't say IPsec at all.  Labeling my
point as the "pixie dust" approach is missing my point
and trivializing it as that other straw man.

The fast handoff draft has other functionality.
The discussion in the base specification says
how to use the Binding Update.

Charlie P.

Regarding co-located COA, the mobile IP RFC states the following:

A "co-located care-of address" is a care-of address acquired by
         the mobile node as a local IP address through some external
         means, which the mobile node then associates with one of its
         own network interfaces.  The address may be dynamically
         acquired as a temporary address by the mobile node such as
         through DHCP [13], or may be owned by the mobile node as a
         long-term address for its use only while visiting some foreign
         network.  Specific external methods of acquiring a local IP
         address for use as a co-located care-of address are beyond the
         scope of this document.  

The DHCP part I understand. How does one get a long-term address and
how would this long-term care-of address work when the mobile node roams
across foreign networks.

I am new to this mailing list and may have missed previous discussions on 
this topic. If so, I would appreciate it if the longstanding members 
would point me to such a discussion.

Thanks,
Pramod.

Hello Charlie,

is described for example.

=> Sure there would be other methods, but 
for now, there is only manual config or PKI
and the PKI option is far from described in the
spec. There would be additional requirements if 
certificates are used (like including HoA ..etc).
So I believe this needs to be described if dynamic keying
was to be used.

  > I think it's a mistake to require that every

=> Yes but this is not _related_ this one is in the
_core_ of MIPv6: How to secure BUs to random ARs.

Hello folks,

I intend to revise the draft, and will post text
for input. Please provide your comments.

The previous discussion on RtSolPr and PrRtAdv
appears to have concluded with the following.

"On links where the information provided
by RtSolPr and PrRtAdv is already supported
by the underlying link layer, these messages
are optional."

I would like to proceed with the rest of the
issues in subsequent e-mails.

Thanks,

-Rajeev

Issue: Should the Previous AR forward packets
on the tunnel without explicitly receiving an FBU
from the MN ?

Background: In base Mobile IP, there has been considerable
discussion on traffic redirection and associated security
issues. Should fastv6 spec allow the PAR to enable packet
forwarding without explicitly receiving a (Fast) Binding
Update from the MN ? In particular, should we assume that
link layer would provide necessary authorization to redirect
traffic ?

Provide your input as either

YES: also provide a "brief" reasoning
NO: may provide a "brief" reasoning

Thanks,

Issue: Should a Fastv6 MN be required to have the
option of deferring its new CoA configuration until
a "convenient" time ?

Background: In version 04, a MN can defer new CoA
configuration until it finds, for instance, suitable
radio resources (See Section 3.5.2). This would mean
that the MN would be required to suppress RS and
Router Advertisement every time it changes access routers
until a convenient time. This also means the previous CoA
would potentially have to be supported across a series of
access routers for arbitrary periods of time.

The proposal is to remove this restriction on new CoA
configuration.

Please respond
- YES if you agree to remove the restriction
    of deferring new CoA
- NO otherwise. Indicate a brief reason

Thanks,

-Rajeev

Issue: Should "Three Party Handover" (Section 3.1.7 and
Section 3.4 in version 04) be specified as a natural
continuation of the base (i.e., Two Party) handover ?

Background: Both Section 3.1.7 and 3.4 describe
Three Party handover. Section 3.4 is especially
exhaustive. This is done with the objective of
avoiding potential routing loops (especially a
concern when the same IP address is used across
a series of routers) and chaining of tunnels.

Proposal: To allow the base protocol to operate
without specifically describing additional protocol
structure. In particular, if the MN returns back to
its previous AR without completing Mobile IPv6
Binding Update procedure, it must send a FBU
with lifetime of zero (Section 6.1.2 in v04), which
allows the PAR to disable any outgoing tunnels.
This, coupled with a short lifetime for the tunnels
and by making the MN configure a new CoA each
time it visits a new AR, should alleviate the need
for a special Three Party Handover protocol.

Please specify

- YES if you agree to describe Three Party
    Handover as a natural continuation of
    the base protocol with necessary requirements
- NO otherwise. Indicate a brief reason.

Thanks,

-Rajeev

hi,
 In the section 14.3 ("Security features: Binding updates to Home agents"),
it has been mentioned that  for forwarding from a previous care-of address
"a prearranged security association must exist b/w MN and the temporary
home agent" i.e. if we want to support smooth hand-off there should be a SA
existing b/w the MN and HA of foreign network.
How is this SA arranged? is this manually done by the administrator or is
this achieved using IKE?

regards
  gaurav

This is the subject of the debate under the heading "Mobile IPv6 - Issue 72
(Forwarding from Previous CoA)".

In the basic mobile node - home agent case there's some published text on
how to set up the manual SAs and policy entries (the URL is in the mail
sent by Kevin Miles). IKE wasn't considered in this note, but I'm working
together with Vijay and Francis to produce an updated note in draft form
about this.

For the previous-router-become-temp-ha case there are some additional
issues, which I listed in the discussion mentioned above. Copying
from there:

    One problem is that the number of SAs in the manual case
    grows unreasonably large when each MN needs an SA to every
    place where it might possibly go to. This also applies to
    the address-specific policy data base that we need even if
    dynamic keying is used. In the multiple-HA case the size
    of the necessary data bases is proportional to the number
    of home addresses. In the prev-coa-forwarding case its
    proportional to the number of interface IDs times the
    number of prefixes.

    Since all of this is pretty much based on addresses, we
    need to ensure address uniqueness even for care-of addresses
    on the whole network and not just at one link. There may be
    other issues that we haven't thought of.

Hi,

I need clarification on handling Nonce Indices option.
Going through Section 9.4.1, it seems that Nonce Indices option
is not mandatory (there is no "MUST" description) in MN sending
BU to CN.

I wonder how can CN locate corresponding {home,care-of} nonce
when it receives BU without Nonce Indices option.

Shinta Sugimoto

An oversight. I suppose you are referring to the following
paragraph:

     -  The Home and Care-of Nonce Index values in the Nonce Indices
        mobility option are recognized by the correspondent node.  As
        described in Section 5.2, the correspondent node discards Nonce
        values that are too old.

We should make it clear that both the option is mandatory and the recognition
are MUSTs. I also would like to avoid repeating text from 5.2. So:

     -  A Nonce Indices mobility option MUST be present, and the
        Home and Care-of Nonce Index values in this option MUST be
        recent enough to be recognized by the correspondent node.

Does this help?

Hi,

Is there a default value for binding lifetime in MIPv6?
(MIPv6 specifies MAX_RR_BINDING_LIFE is 420 seconds).

If not what is the "typical" value?  I need this value for modelling &
simulation purpose.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
	Karann

(The limit you cite is there for a security reason. In practise the
mobile node might stay longer at the same location and would have
to re-establish the binding now and then.)

There is no defined default for the lifetime. I would expect
implementations to put in a reasonable value based on their
knowledge of the link type and movements. A very advanced
implementation might use speed and network topology
information to estimate a likely lifetime. Or the implementations
might put in just a long value, and simply re-establish the
binding once they have moved. For your simulation, do you
need the value that is put to the BU, or the time that node
actually stays in the same place? Note that the signaling
messages are the same regardless of the value in the BU if
the node stays in the same place for less than 420 seconds
(assuming the node didn't predict a too short lifetime).
If you go beyond 420 seconds, then there will be additional
signaling messages.

NO, without a MN BU, there is potential for misuse by a malicious party.
Secondly where do you end packet forwarding  - the forwarding may
involve
dozens of PAR , PPAR, PPPAR in a chain.

At this time, I do not really find strong arguments for keeping
this feature in the base Mobile IPv6 specification. Consensus is
evenly split. The chairs believe that this feature can be included
in the fast handoff for MIPv6 work. 
I would suggest that we close this issue with the current 
recommendation and move forward.

Hi James, is it in general consensus that involving AAA during handoff
adds latency ?  Is it because the MN has to authenticate and negotiate 
cipher parameters ?  The same for FA can be elimated by maintaining a 
constant session between itself an the RADIUS server.  

The point to note is that in 802.11 networks, the AAA transactions
are made between the MN, the AP and the RADIUS server. So if the 
same AAA transactions are done again for Mobile IP v4 - whatever 
latency AAA adds would be doubled. 

I have heard that 802.11i has made 802.11f (IAPP) redundant - please 
confirm.

Doing an AAA transaction from scratch when the mobile hands off is
likely to
slow down handover considerably.
Seamboy is working on protocol for context transfer that would allow the
old
access point to transfer the AAA
context to the new. Also, the 802.11f (IAPP) specification has some
discussion
about this, thought I don't know how
far they have gone in the direction of design.

Hi,

The following section says :

"9.3.1. Receiving Home Test Init Messages

   Upon receiving a Home Test Init message, the correspondent node
   verifies the following:

    -  MH Type field for this message is 1.
    -  The Header Extension Length field MUST be greater than or equal
       to the length specified in Section 6.1.3.
    -  The packet MUST NOT include a Home Address destination option.
"

It doesn't say what needs to be done if these tests fails, do we discard
the
packet or send an error back and discard ? The same exists in section
9.3.2.

9.4.1 clarifies that for BU's, if the conditions are not met, the message
must be
silently discarded. Same for 11.5.2  (MN receiving RR messages say that if
conditions are not met, discard packet silently). Should similar
terminology
be used for the above two sections too ?

Thanks,

- KK

So one issue that usually arises with third party
anything is authorization. As in, what prevents an
errant/attacking FMIP router from hijacking the
mobile node's traffic? What protects the mobile
node here such that it has some say-so?

I suspect that this also applies to the two
party network initiated case too.

Hi all, 

After some discussion with the chairs we agreed
that we will send an update on HMIPv6 to the 
list FYI and comments. 

A couple of people have indicated that it might
be good to put extended mode in a separate draft,
partly because it is helpful for nemo and partly
because it will need some more work to accomodate
the latest changes in the MIPv6 base. 

Extended mode might be useful for nemo, but it's too
early to tell right now, for this reason it is hard
to keep it in a MIP WG document. On the other hand, 
it is also useful for removing the extra tunnel
when CNs do not use/implement RO. 

What we're trying to do is to finish the draft ASAP. 
For this reason, and given comments on the list, the
chairs suggested that we remove extended mode for 
now and proceed with Basic mode only. If we later
agree on a nice solution for using extended mode
with MNs implementing RR with CNs, then we can proceed
with a separate draft. 

We are now working on a new revision that will reflect
these changes, your feedback is welcome as usual.

Hesham

Jari,

There's another consideration here.

If the SEND (SEcuring Neighbor Discovery) work successfully concludes, it should
be possible to set up a security association between any IPv6 router and a host,
in some fashion. This would apply to a mobile node and an access router as well.

SEND would be an excellent alternative to requiring the same level of security
as with a home agent. This is another reason why I think it would be better to
move forwarding from previous care of address into the fast handoff draft. It is
currently cast as a "on link home agent" but it really has to do with the access
router. Recognizing that, and designing the security to properly account for the
kinds of threats that that entails, is necessary. SEND and the fast handover
work are complementary.

            jak

Of course. Any signaling that is required before the mobile can obtain its
traffic adds latency.

For MIPv6, I don't believe there is any requirement for MIP specific AAA with
the HA. The MN should already have an IPsec SA and therefore no further
authentication should be required.

No idea. You need to contact someone following that work.

Hesham,
  I agree with the decision to remove the extended mode.
As for the comments, I suggest that you look into the open issues I 
tried to point out in my draft on LMM architectures, the most important 
one being how to detect domain changes, etc. The pointer to version 1 is 
in one of my previous messages.

Regards,

So, the proposal is to

- allow the network (i.e., ARs) to create tunnel, but
- enable forwarding on the tunnel only upon successfully
    processing an FBU

Thanks for the comments, we will look into them.

The highest priority now is to make sure that
HMIPv6 will work with the recent spec changes. 
We will send a note to the list on the security
requirements shortly.

Mike,

Some of us are trying to spin up a WG to secure Neighbor Discovery. The SA
established for that could be used to secure the handover traffic as well.

We should not assume that the link layer can do anything, but the option should
be available to forward based on link layer information (in particular, a link
down trigger on the old access router) if available.

The specification should allow an optimization that would allow forwarding based
on link down information on the old access router if such information is
(securely) available without receipt of the BU.  The reason is because, after
all, this specification is about optimization and therefore it should encompass
the spectrum of possibilities for utilizing link layer information and not
exclude one based on the possibility that some link layers don't support it
(i.e. only allow the lowest common denominator optimization).

This optimization is a SHOULD based on availability of the link layer
information.

Hi Hesham,

I wonder if we could get the chairs to ask the IESG for an early ruling on the
IPR statement for HMIP. It is rather unusual, and I would rather that we not end
up in a position like that which I believe occured in the iSCSI WG, in which the
chairs and WG proceeded forward on a draft for standards track only to be told
by the IESG at the end that the IPR was not acceptable.

This could considerably expedite bringing HMIP to standard.

Hmmm. I rather view the restriction as the opposite, namely *requiring* the MN
to *always* obtain a CoA immediately.

As a philosophical aside: why is it that those who support "mobile control"
always balk at letting the mobile node determine when it should configure a new
CoA? Why not let the MN decide *that* too? To me, this is the ultimate in mobile
control.

> Please respond
> - YES if you agree to remove the restriction
>     of deferring new CoA
> - NO otherwise. Indicate a brief reason
>

YES. Because I believe that if we are to support mobile control, then we should
allow the mobile to control when it applies for its care of address.

The configuration of a new care of address will require a considerable amount of
time, especially if route optimization is required with correspondents. The
mobile node is really the only entity that can know whether it will have enough
time on the new access router to complete this lengthy and time consuming
process. Therefore, I think we should let the mobile decide. If it doesn't have
time, for example, because it will be moving to a new access router soon, then
it should defer obtaining the care of address.

Also, the mobile may find that the link layer has moved it to a router that it
doesn't like. Maybe the QoS isn't good, or there is too much congestion. If the
mobile is forced to apply for a new care of address, then it will *have* to use
that router, even though it doesn't like it. I think the mobile should have the
option of forgoing getting a new care of address on the new router and switching
immediately to another one it likes better, and not be forced by the
specification to get a care of address on a router it doesn't like.

These options are confusing.

What I say YES to is including some form of three party handover as an optional
part of the specification. Whether that qualifies as a "natural continuation of
the base protocol" or not I'll let you decide. :-)

I believe it must be included if the mobile node is to be given full control
over when it configures its care of address. And I believe it is *critical* to
give the mobile node full control over when it configures its care of address,
if we are to maintain the host having final control of when and where it gets
its IP service.

However, I don't think that it should be made mandatory because it may not be
necessary nor possible to support in all cases. For those cases, I believe the
above mentioned option, having the MN send a BU to cancel the tunnel, is
sufficient. However, I believe that the specification must mention that if the
implementation does not provide three way handover, the optimization is lost.
The MN will lose the tunnel and must wait for the routing change on the home
agent and at the correspondents before obtaining it again.

This is an issue that has come up in our discussions as well.

We are particularly interested in some way of doing MAP discovery that does not
involve detecting modified RAs. This could involve a custom built
administratively scoped multicast discovery protocol, or possibly the use of SLP
or some other discovery protocol.

The reason for this is because we would like to maintain the option of deploying
MIPv6 with standard IPv6 routers, and then deploy MAPs for location privacy
without requiring any modifications on the routers or configuration of router
advertisements.

This option does not have to be in the base specification, unless there is wider
agreement that this would be a better design.
If it is not in the base specification, then RA-based MAP advertisement should
be properly qualified as the advertisement technique so that other techniques
are allowed. We are prepared to work together on designing a MAP discovery
technique if there is broader interest in this possibility, either in a separate
draft or as a contribution to the base draft.

Hello Jim,

Something you said caught my eye:

James Kempf wrote:

> CoA? Why not let the MN decide *that* too? To me, this is the ultimate in mobile

Surely you don't wish to enact the "ultimate" in mobile control!
If we all had those, then we would use that ultimate control
to arrogate as much network service as we could possibly take,
actually making things worse for everyone compared to a more
controlled scenario.  This "might" be at the cost of requiring
more unscalable stuff in the network -- even turning network
domains into flat addressing domains without aggregation.

Problems with unrestricted use of arbitrary care-of addresses
could include:
1. More tunneling than necessary, introducing additional
   latencies and network load.
2. Topological incorrectness which disseminates out into
   the network.  Mobile IPv6 avoids this problem by shielding
   the home address from the visited network.
One might say that the unrestricted maintenance of stale
care-of addresses is "non-Internet" style technology, since
it defeats efficient routing and aggregation.

Of course everything needs to be balanced.  In this case,
the balance has to be struck between smooth performance and
tunnel maintenance.  My remembrance from old fast-handover
design team discussions was that we carefully considered
this balance, and allowed tunneling to old care-of addresses
for as long as needed for smooth handovers.  Past that point,
the benefit is questionable and the penalty is clear.

...

These are things that should be happening during the acquisition
process.  I don't remember discussion that said one had to cause
the mobile to discontinue use of the old care-of address prematurely.
I thought the sense of the discussion was to find an algorithm by
which the smoothest possible transfer could be made.

>> Please respond
>> - YES if you agree to remove the restriction
>>     of deferring new CoA
>> - NO otherwise. Indicate a brief reason

My vote is to have a deterministic algorithm by which the care-of
address is updated by protocol, and during which the old care-of
address is still useful for tunneling to the mobile node at its
new point of attachment.  I'm not sure whether that's YES or NO!

Regards,
Charlie P.

NO, the MN should obtain a nCOA immediately without any delay. Giving the
choice for the MN to defer constructing a new COA will complicate the
protocol unnecessarily. Also, it is undesirable to allow the MN to use the
oCOA for longer time  than it is necessary.

Subject: [mobile-ip] Fastv6: Issue 2: Deferring new CoA configuration



Issue: Should a Fastv6 MN be required to have the
option of deferring its new CoA configuration until
a "convenient" time ?

Background: In version 04, a MN can defer new CoA
configuration until it finds, for instance, suitable
radio resources (See Section 3.5.2). This would mean
that the MN would be required to suppress RS and
Router Advertisement every time it changes access routers
until a convenient time. This also means the previous CoA
would potentially have to be supported across a series of access routers for
arbitrary periods of time.

The proposal is to remove this restriction on new CoA configuration.

Please respond
- YES if you agree to remove the restriction
    of deferring new CoA
- NO otherwise. Indicate a brief reason

Thanks,

-Rajeev

=> I think the draft already qualifies the current

in future. So I see no problem with adding another
feature later for MAP discovery.

What I mean is that there is no separate protocol, as it is now in v04,
but allow the base protocol to operate with tunnel cancellation feature.

A MN can exercise its right to send packets with whatever source
IP address it may chose. The network is not obliged to forward them, however.
Indeed, without protocol support, they should get dropped.

The fast handover protocol allows using PCoA until the MN becomes
a Mobile IPv6 end-point. I see this as a natural co-existence with
base Mobile IPv6.

If you question why a MN should configure a new CoA when it
detects a new router, I think that question should first be addressed in
base Mobile IPv6.

My own thinking is that adherence to using topogically correct IP
address is an important principle that any MN should recognize and
respect. When we design protocol that treads on this principle, we
should try to diverge from the principle as little as possible. Besides,
keeping an IP address across a series of routers leads to chaining of
tunnels and potential routing loops which we should not have to
design solutions for.

The deterministic algorithm is to do Neighbor Discovery as
soon as a new link is detected or use anticipation whenever
possible. After that the MN would do Binding Update, and
when the packets start flowing into the new CoA, the old
tunnel should time out. The lifetime for the tunnel should
take these latencies into account.

I guess the vote is YES to require the MN to configure a
new CoA (while use of PCoA is simultaneously allowed) ?

I have voted mistakenly by NO, it should be YES. My vote is to remove this
feature of defering nCOA..  I hope that was clear from the reasons I
mentioned below.

NO, the MN should obtain a nCOA immediately without any delay. Giving the
choice for the MN to defer constructing a new COA will complicate the
protocol unnecessarily. Also, it is undesirable to allow the MN to use the
oCOA for longer time  than it is necessary.

Subject: [mobile-ip] Fastv6: Issue 2: Deferring new CoA configuration 



Issue: Should a Fastv6 MN be required to have the 
option of deferring its new CoA configuration until 
a "convenient" time ? 

Background: In version 04, a MN can defer new CoA 
configuration until it finds, for instance, suitable 
radio resources (See Section 3.5.2). This would mean 
that the MN would be required to suppress RS and 
Router Advertisement every time it changes access routers 
until a convenient time. This also means the previous CoA 
would potentially have to be supported across a series of access routers for
arbitrary periods of time. 

The proposal is to remove this restriction on new CoA configuration. 

Please respond 
- YES if you agree to remove the restriction 
    of deferring new CoA 
- NO otherwise. Indicate a brief reason 

Thanks, 

-Rajeev

If I am not mistaken, it makes the IPR free for OpenSource implementations. I do
not recall having seen such an IPR statement before, and so I think it would be
prudent to have an IESG opinion on it.

This is properly the domain of micromobility routing. Cellular IP and Hawaii
allow this, for example.

The point of debate here is whether or not the tunnel should be kept up after a
fast handover until the MN chooses to change care of address.

Again, this is not at issue. What is at issue is when the MN should be required
by the fast handover specification to change its care of address.

I disagree. The issue here comes up because we are defining a new and different
handover protocol from the standard Mobile IPv6 movement detection protocol. We
need to decide, in the context of this new protocol, what makes sense.

I don't disagree about the desirability for using a topologically correct IP
address, but I believe the MN should be in control of deciding when to make that
happen, and the network should support the MN until it makes that decision.

Here is an example. Suppose the mobile is receiving traffic on a narrowband
subnet, performs handover to another narrowband subnet but immediately detects
that a broadband hotspot network is available.

Should the mobile be forced by the specification to first change its care of
address into the new narrowband subnet, then move to the broadband subnet, or
should the mobile be allowed to change its care of address directly to the
broadband subnet?

If the specification requires the mobile to change its care of address as soon
as it moves, the mobile would be required to perform the care of address change
twice. If any route optimization was being done with correspondents, that would
have to be done twice too because the tunnel would be not available. This could
lead to considerable delay in the mobile moving to the broadband subnet.

Considering the increasing availability of hotspot networks, it seems like we
should allow this kind of thing.

I don't think the specification can determine all these cases beforehand, and I
certainly don't believe it should be left up to the network to determine when
the care of address can be changed, though the network might want to give the
mobile node a hint, like sending a RA indicating that tunnel service is about to
be terminated.

Hi Charlie,

As in any network deployment problem, the routers and the connections between
them need to be sized correctly for the expected load.

I don't understand this issue. On the wired side, the packets are coming out of
the subnet in the topologically correct place. Where is the topological
incorrectness? The HA is doing exactly the same thing for reverse tunneled
packets. On the wireless side, the access router is putting the packets out
exactly as the FA does in MIPv4. Since this is the last hop, the IP topology is
irrelevent.

> One might say that the unrestricted maintenance of stale

Disagree. The packets coming out of the tunnel end point will be properly
aggregated. If this sort of tunneling is considered "non-Internet", then why is
not the Home Agent considered similarly?

We discussed the same issue in the FMIPv4 team and (partially) came to the
opposite conclusion. Also, one of the FMIPv6 team members joined me in writing
the BETH draft, which allowed open tunneling.

I don't think there is an algorithm. It will depend on the mobile's traffic and
on the particular network configuration.

I don't think this can be made deterministic. I think it will depend on the
traffic mix, network configuration, etc. At best, I think it is a SHOULD, with a
MAY allowing the MN to decide based on movement pattern and traffic mix.

Actually, it is whether the fast handover specification should
require the MN to defer forming a new CoA indefinitely.

I think this would require the MN to not send RS, and not process
any unsolicited RAs, or in general, suppress ND. This is not something
the fast handover protocol should specify. That's the proposal.

One could still ask the same question: when should a Mobile IPv6 host configure
a new CoA.

The specification is not "forcing" this. This is what happens
if a host changes its subnet. The correct question to ask is should
we require it to act differently..

Why ? The MN may move without doing RR on the narrowband
subnet into the broadband subnet. That is not the same as intentionally
deferring its "normal" operations, and hence encumbering the protocol
with "MUST NOTs", however.

In the proposal, the hint is pre-determined: there is a parameter that defines
how long the tunnel is held up.

It would be nice if the protocols would decrease, rather than
increase, the expected load.

1. Subnets are organized according to prefixes.

2. The old CoA does not conform to the prefix of the
   subnet where the mobile node resides.

This is the issue.

Hmmmm...  IP topology is irrelevant.  Hmmm...

Would you say that IP topology is irrelevant on an Ethernet?

Furthermore, one could say that the purpose of the FA is to
localize the damage caused by topological incorrectness.
Mobile IPv6 does one step better by localizing it _at
the mobile node_.

Indeed, the function of the home agent is to introduce a
controlled bit of topological incorrectness.  This is to
be minimized, and managed in a way which is transparent to
the other nodes in the Internet.

I believe it can be proved that (given IP addressability
and mobility of some nodes) at least one point of
such incorrectness has to be tolerated, and even that
one point is sufficient except for certain performance
and scalability considerations.

It should be a goal to minimize the introduction of
extraneous points, and we can indeed do so.

You didn't make any particular point here, anyway not
responsive to my point that the competing design goals
have to be balanced.  Or else I just missed it.
What was the technical conclusion you were referring
to that was "opposite"?

Is this whole discussion supposed to be about use of
care-of addresses, or a justification for BETH (which
I do not know intricate details about)...?

It seems to me that the fast handover draft is an existence
proof for the algorithm.  If there are cases where it does
not work, then that should be discussed.

In our development, it was quite deterministic.

Claiming that the local topology depends on things other
than physical media is dodgy, it seems to me, and requires
a tall order of justification.

In general, I agree that it is a good thing, but I would like an opinion from
the IESG on it. One never knows, they may find some reason not to like it, so it
is better to get an opinion earlier rather than later.

Do you think that  base MIP uses topologically correct addresses when it tunnels
through the HA? I don't see the difference on the wired end of the tunnel
between a reverse tunnel to the HA and a tunnel from one AR to another.

On the wireless end, the topology doesn't matter on the last hop anyway, since
the AR is using a source route like the FA does in MIPv6.

So I fail to see your topology violation argument. What am I missing?

My view is the intermediate position, namely that the MN SHOULD begin care of
address change as soon as possible after moving, but that it MAY defer the
change for some period depending on its traffic pattern, movement, availability
of other, possibly more attractive link options, etc.

What is wrong with that?

Sure. My answer would be: when it thinks it has time to do it. Basically, it
should be up to the MN. The spec should give guidance about what is desirable,
but it should not prohibit the MN from holding on to the CoA until a call
completes, or a quick move to another access router happens, or until the MN
switches the home address to a new wireless medium (intertechnology handover),
to cite a few examples.

The specification forces it if the wording says: "The MN MUST change its care of
address as soon as it detects that it has switched to the new link." Or,
equivalently, if the specification provides no support for continuation of the
tunnel (as is currently the case in draft-koodli) beyond a fixed lifetime. The
latter has the effect of forcing the MN to change, and is, in fact, quite
inadvisable regardless of whether the MN changes or not, because outstanding BUs
to CNs may not complete by the time the tunnel is terminated, effectively
cutting off the traffic.

Suppose the MN doesn't do RR, but does change care of address at the HA to the
narrowband subnet. The CNs are sending packets back to the old narrowband AR.
Now, suppose the MN wants to change to the hotspot network. How does the traffic
from the CNs get to the MN when it comes up on the hotspot network and is in the
process of changing the care of address? The traffic gets dropped at the old
narroband AR until the MN has time to complete RR with the CNs. The MN has to
either do RR with the CNs to get the traffic onto the new narrowband router,
then handover to the hotspot network, or do RR to route the traffic back through
the HA until it completes the hotspot network transition.

Without the possibility of deferring CoA change and three party handover, I
don't see any way to solve this without either tunnel chaining or packets
getting dropped.

That's what I'm objecting to. I don't see that as practical. The MN may actually
require more time to complete RR, for example. This is independent of whether
the MN gets to hang onto an old care of address or not, but if it does, the
tunnel lifetime will need to be adaptable to when the MN actually does change
its care of address.

If you are so concerned about topological correctness as a hard and fast
principle, then we should give up on the tunneling optimization entirely and
suffer the performance hit of packets getting dropped while the MN is doing BU
to HA, RR with all CNs, BU to all CNs, etc. etc.

Optimizations often have this effect, they end up violating some kind of higher
level principle. For example, interfunctional reorganization in compiler
optimization. From the point of view of the source code, this is a gross
violation of the functional structure, but it can make the code run much faster
and be completely invisible in the running code if carefully done. The key is
that the optimization is not be visible at higher layers. As far as I can see,
there are no negative side effects of this optimization visible at the transport
and application layers, can you see any? As for the routing, it is true that
there will be source routes hanging around longer, and this is a concern, but if
the specification requires that the MN change its care of address eventually,
they will go away.

By "opposite" I mean that we included the possibility of the MN hanging on the
its care of address until it decided to change it, rather than specifying that
the MN had to change it's care of address immediately upon movement.

I guess I am at a loss to understand why this is such an issue, since even _base
MIPv6 movement detection_ doesn't require (e.g. MUST) that the MN change it's
care of address when it detects that it has moved. Here is the relevent text
from Section 11.4.1:

   While a mobile node is away from home, it is important for the mobile
   node to quickly detect when its default router becomes unreachable.
   When this happens, the mobile node SHOULD switch to a new default
                                                           ^^^^^^^^
   router and potentially to a new primary care-of address.

All I'm asking for is that the fast handover spec provide the same kind of
support. That the MN SHOULD change its care of address when it detects that it
has moved, but it MAY continue using the care of address for a period of time,
to be determined by the MN in order to optimize some aspect of traffic,
movement, etc. During that time, of course, the network must support the MN by
keeping the tunnel active if possible. If not, it can send the MN a hint, like
an RA, indicating that the MN had better change soon or lose the tunnel.

Hello Jim,

Thanks for your comments!  If there is more followup, please
let me know, especially if you want further textual changes
to my deployment paragraph.  Here is my attempt to resolve Issue 55.

Without specific examples, I can't be sure that our revisions
will have addressed your concern.  We have tightened up a lot
of places in the spec.

I thought that Jari put the section in as a result of previous
requests from the working group.

The ADs have asked for such Changes sections in other documents,
and in previous versions of this document I believe.

The Future Extensions text is reasonably included in the document,
I think.  It does serve to give a lot of context for various
design decisions that have been reached.

Yes, a node can send a BA if the 'A' bit is not set.
For instance, it may wish to report an error condtion.
This is discussed in section 9.4.4, which is cross-referenced
from section 6.1.8.

It's already specified that those bits MUST be ignored.
I don't think it's incorrect as is, but I put it in for PadN,
and for consistency also for Pad1.

Here's the new text:

   It is expected that Mobile IPv6 route optimization will be used on
   a global basis between nodes belonging to different administrative
   domains.  Deploying an IPsec security association between two
   arbitrary node in the Internet in the absence of a global PKI is
   a hard problem, and so a solution that does not require such was
   developed in the interests of maintaining the minimum requirements
   for a deployable mobility solution.  The chosen infrastructureless
   method is described in Section 5.2 and Section 14.4 discusses the
   resulting security level and the design rationale of this approach.

I strongly disagree with this, and I've never heard of any
such directive aimed at other specifications.  Recently, in
fact, we've been asked to divide the references into two
classifications.  Such a request seems to rest securely on
the supposition that there are indeed two kinds of references.

Charlie P.

Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.  In every note so
far, I have tried to stress the need for engineering balance
adhering to known design principles.  I'm not painting a black
and white picture, and I hope you'll step back from characterizing
my discussion in that way.

I guess that the word "immediately" should be changed
to reflect whatever the protocol requirement is.
Does that word appear in the specification?

You are right, that the base specification has this language
from the very beginning.  As I remember, the idea was that the
mobile node could shoot itself in the foot if it wanted to.
Here we are talking about whether or not to insert longer-lasting
host routes into the network to which the mobile node wishes
to attach.

I think that the conditions for such continuance have to be
spelled in very precise detail, and that access routers might
consider old care-of addresses as cached entries which are
subject to purging after some agreed-upon time.

This sounds to me like a deterministic mechanism that could be
worked out and compared to the existing solutions.

Another relevant piece can be PANA.
It's used in authenticating (and authorizing)
clients for network access. When this protocol
is used, mobile node would implement PANA client,
and routers would implement the PANA authentication
agent. One can bootstrap a trust relation between these
entities upon successful PANA exchange. Some additional
things need to be worked out for turning this relation into
a security association for Mobile IP or neighbor discovery
uses..

I think having the same requirement as in base Mobile IPv6 is good.

Regarding the addition of MAY however, the only protocol addition
would be to inform the MN if a tunnel is about to expire ? I guess such a
notification itself is a MAY ?

The tunnel lifetime itself has to be long enough to account for lost
BU, RR messages etc..

If the MN does not do RR on the 2nd subnet, upon moving to the 3rd,
it SHOULD send an FBU to AR on the 1st subnet to set up a tunnel
between AR1 and AR3.

Anyway, the risk of potential packet loss should compel the MN to become a MIPv6
end-point sooner than later :-)

What if we keep the lifetime "large enough" ?  Having a constant lifetime makes
protocol simpler.

Hi Hesham,

I think that getting (Basic) HMIPv6 out ready for use
is very important, but would be reluctant to see
extended mode disappear from the WG completely.

Obviously of the NEMO applications of extended mode
are possible, but the improvements over basic
mode make it useful in  a mobile-ip context as well.

I don't think that there will be too much work to
bring extended mode into conformance with MIPv6.
As I indicated in the thread of 5 september -
'supporting multiple nodes behind one CoA CoTI/CoT',
limited modification is required to perform RR on
Extended Mode devices.

Is it an option to put a (largely unmodified) version
of the extended mode spec up as a draft soon, so that it
doesn't disappear out of the LMM debate?

We could fix it up later as time allows.
Even an individual submission would be valuable.

Greg

Hi Charlie,

These look fine.

I've been informed that the RFC editor now accepts nonnormative references, so I
have no problems with them.

Thanx for your hard work on the spec.

Yes. The HA uses a topologically correct source address!

In MIPv4, there is a single reverse tunnel between FA and HA. This came
about as the Internet evolved and sites started using ingress filtering.
In MIPv6, the reverse tunneling is done by the MN when it is not using RO.
In both the cases, the use of reverse tunnels is not a function of _when exactly_
the MN configures a topologically correct CoA.

In FMIPv6, tunnel chaining and potential routing loops would result
as a result of keeping topologically incorrect IP addresses indefinitely.
The use of a reverse tunnel is a function of when the MN configures a
new CoA and establishes itself as a MIPv6 end-point.

I didn't say that fmipv6 is following the principle to the wire. I did say that
the divergence from the principle should be kept small. Indefinite use of
previous CoA without respecting topological correctness stretches the
balance the protocol has to accomplish in addition to the requirements
it imposes on a MN, such as suppressing ND.

In any case, having the same level of requirement as in  the base MIPv6
protocol is good. I think we can also have the MAY you suggested
as long as the MAY also applies to notification from the router about
tunnel lifetime expiration.

Hi Charlie,

I think we may be beginning to converge.

On the MN side,  I don't see any way to specify anything deterministic. I think
it should match the base Mobile IPv6 spec in this regard. On the network side,
see below.

On the network side, I think the following is needed:

1) The AR sends the MN an RA prior to the expiration of the tunnel if the AR
isn't willing to renew the tunnel due to policy or operational reasons. This is
a hint to the MN that it had better get its new CoA changed soon or risk losing
its traffic. The MN then responds by starting the CoA change. By "soon" I think
we need to provide some default value.

2) The AR can optionally renew the tunnel periodically, for some amount of time
specified by policy set at the discretion of the network operator. This is
necessary also for an MN that changes its CoA right away, if the RR and BU
messages take longer than expected, as might be the case in a particular
deployment situation. The default tunnel lifetime should be specified in the
spec, the current default looks OK, but I think this might be subject to a bit
more experimentation and maybe simulation to determine an optimal value
(ideally, the AR should rarely have to renew the tunnel for the default case).
The tunnel lifetime should also be configurable.

3)  I believe the MN sends out a Fast NA as the final signal that it is fully up
on the new link. If this is after all RR and BU to CN have completed, the AR can
use this as a signal to terminate the tunnel.

How does that sound?

=> That's correct. The need for extended mode is, to
a large extent not related to NEMO. In addition,
today's NEMO charter says that we will not initially
produce a solution for RO. There will be a study of 
the solution space that would hopefully lead to 
rechartering and eventially a solution. 

I think Greg has valid points on the need for 
extended mode in MIP as well. So keeping it 
as a separate draft in MIP is certainly one 
option. 

Having said that, we still have some security 
issues with basic mode that we need to work out, 
so it might be good to focus on this and hopefully
(as Greg mentioned) the extended mode solution will
follow, if not at the same time.

I think having extended mode as an individual submission to keep it active would
be a fine idea.

There's an issue of whether it should be done in MIP or in NEMO. The discussions
in NEMO about how the mobile router would handle the care of address look alot
like extended mode, and it might make sense to combine them. On the other hand,
the major issue of extended mode for MIP is how to handle route optimization,
which won't be considered as a fixed design for a bit yet in NEMO. Perhaps we
could keep it in MIP and continue considering how to do RO, then if we figure
something out it might provide some input into NEMO.

Not sure, but it is a MUST if the network operator has configured the router to
allow longer tunnels. It is a MAY if the router doesn't allow this, however.

I think the tunnel lifetime must be configurable and I think the possibility of
tunnel renewal must be allowed. The wireless link could become congested or the
response to RR from one or another CN could be delayed. Deployments will vary
and I believe the network operator must have the options of configuring this
according to the local policy and local deployment conditions.

Three party handover does this in a way that doesn't require the mobile to
signal the old AR. If the mobile moves prior to sending the FBU, it will cause
packet loss.

The new AR will find out that the mobile is moving anyway by either the PrRtSol
from the mobile or the Layer 2 prehandover notification (if available). Why not
let it transfer the tunnel? The two routers have a security association (or
should) so there should not be a security problem. The new narrowband AR can
transfer the tunnel either when it gets the (securely delivered) link down
notification or when the MN sends the FBU from the hotspot router. If the MN
sends the FBU while still on the narrowband router, the hotspot router can
buffer until the MN shows up.

I agree that it makes things simpler, but the problem is that deployments can
vary. I don't see any way to avoid having the tunnel lifetime configurable, and
allowing renewel. The alternative is that some percentage, potentially high for
a suboptimal case, of the real time sessions get dropped or experience
artifacts.

I've been struggling to keep up with the 
discussion but from what I saw, it seems that
there was a minor detail that was overlooked
or I missed it. 
When we discuss whether the MN should keep its
old CoA in the new subnet, we obviously assume 
that the tunnel is terminated at the new AR, right?
If so, are we sure that ingress filtering can handle
this? From what I know about existing routers, it seems
that some of them do not support dynamic or even manual
configuration of the ingress filter and automatically 
take the prefix(es) that they advertise as the default. 
Can someone confirm if this is true or false? 
If this is true, then the MN would not be able to send
traffic using its old CoA. 

In fact, regardless of this issue, on an ethernet, how 
can the AR be sure if it's allowing _the_ MN to get its
traffic through or if someone else is spoofing that address
to launch attacks without being traced to its real location? 

Hesham

Hi James,

There are plenty of RAND license statements
and plenty of "free for any use" policies by companies
which have invented technologies which are in use in
Internet protocols.

I think that if the IETF is prepared to allow companies to
use RAND in standards track documents, then there really
shouldn't be a problem if they also allow no royalties
for some uses.

I mean, it's the inventors' prerogative isn't it?

The statement is very useful to get around some of the
restrictive GNU GPL requirements. (thanks Hesham!).

I have an individual submission on a new LMM scheme design at
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-vriz-mobileip-hbhlmap-00.txt

Abstract

   This document introduces an extension to Mobile IPv6 to provide
   support for Localized Mobility Management. This proposed Hop-by-Hop
   Local Mobility Agents Probing scheme specifies the Local Mobility
   Agents Discovery, Selection and Failure Detection architecture and
   procedures for deploying the localized mobility management, whereby
   the Local Mobility Agents are distributed. It reduces the amount of
   signalling to the home agent and correspondent nodes when mobile
   node moves among the subnets of the visited domain.

This scheme supports Local Mobility Agents discovery, selection and failure
detection without modifications to routers not acting as LMAs.

Aha! After a weekend away (and reading your further explanation ...)
I now understand!

The situation is messy for talking to peers while tentative ...
but there's an out: if I send a NS to the peers multicast, with my
tentative address as my IP source but no LL option, it should
attempt to reply directly, thus sending an NS ... and giving
us a chance to send our O=0 advertisement.  This breaks rfc2461
for the optimistic node, but a compliant peer should behave
correctly I think ...

This is admittedly inefficient, but for fast handovers I'm
more interested in communications via the router, which 
should work correctly (after all, the RA is what starts all
this prefix business anyway)

Yes. The MH Type test seems also redundant, let's remove that.
And add the following statement after the list in both 9.3.1 and 9.3.2:

    Any packet carrying a Home Test Init (Care-of Test Init) message which
    fails to satisfy all of these tests MUST be silently discarded.

Yes.

Yes, thank you.

I think it would be better to make the Nonce Indices option MUST.
(It will limit the way of handling cookies though)
If it's not mandatory, CN will easily suffer from receiving BU without
the option and trying to match nonces.

This is issue #76, the state machine. Most people who responded said that they'd
rather remove the appendix, so it's now gone.

Hello All

  Is there any work going on regarding MIPv6 over PPP?
I am not sure if this is the place to ask this, but any pointers in this
direction would be valuable

Thanks

Greg,

The issue isn't what's out there, it is *what the IESG wants*. They can say no
to something the entire rest of the industry thinks is common practice, and we
will have to go back to the beginning. In the interest of seeing HMIP go to
standard as soon as possible, I'd like an early opinion from the IESG would
help. To my knowledge, nobody has taken a draft to standard before with this
kind of IPR statement on it.

What's the problem with asking the IESG whether they approve of the statement or
not?

                    jak

Whatever the mobile does has to coordinate with the access
routers timewise.  I'm imagining that, while it's getting
a new care-of address, it's allowed to use its old care-of
address to source packets.  While it's finishing the
binding update procedures, it's  a tunnel endpoint for a
tunnel from the old access router for packets sent to the
old care-of address.  This is a mechanism that has a
well-defined start point, process, and end point.
Timeouts apply, and should be dimensioned according
to analysis of base Mobile IPv6 protocol constants.
A binding update sent to the previous access router
for the old care-of address will have a lifetime request,
and that lifetime should be calculated by the mobile
node to conform with reasonable protocol needs.
That would be seconds, not minutes.

If the tunnel is established by way of a Binding Update, then it
has a lifetime.  See above.  Furthermore, the Care-of Address
change ought to proceed immediately, regardless of the tunnel
lifetime.  For Mobile IP, this is the point of doing any work
at all on fast handovers.

I can interpret your suggestion here in a way that is
entirely do-able by way of Binding Updates for the
old care-of address with the new care-of address.
Experiments to find out the time requirement would be
good.

Furthermore, all of this would be much better with
Binding Updates included with data, and with renewal
verification of the care-of address only for return
routability-based security establishment.

Fast NA is related to the new care-of address, and not directly related
to return routability.  The tunnel lifetime can be handled independently
of considerations about care-of address acquisition.

Charlie P.

I am not sure how you will use it for neighbor discovery, as you
would have done neighbor discovery during your PANA exchange. Or
you are assuming that you learnt the link layer address of the
access router from the unprotected RA ?

Hello Rajeev,
I have not read all the emails exchanged about this
issue. BTW, I would like to have the option to defer 
new care of address configuration. 
Following are a few advantages of this approach:

1.Avoid the possibility of blocking real time traffic 
by the signaling traffic.
2.Provides mechanism to remove header compression 
context transfer or re-negotiation out of critical path 
of handover. Similarly, provides mechanism to remove PPP 
context transfer or or re-negotiatio (if PPP is used)out 
of critical path of handover. 

If we keep context transfer as well as the handover signaling 
in the critical path of handover, I do see possibility of call drop
which will beat the purpose of fast handoff. BTW, in order to support 
above feature (2,3), we need a mechanism to tunnel 
compressed IP packet or PPP frame.

Regards,
Ajoy

Subject: [mobile-ip] Fastv6: Issue 2: Deferring new CoA configuration



Issue: Should a Fastv6 MN be required to have the
option of deferring its new CoA configuration until
a "convenient" time ?

Background: In version 04, a MN can defer new CoA
configuration until it finds, for instance, suitable
radio resources (See Section 3.5.2). This would mean
that the MN would be required to suppress RS and
Router Advertisement every time it changes access routers
until a convenient time. This also means the previous CoA
would potentially have to be supported across a series of
access routers for arbitrary periods of time.

The proposal is to remove this restriction on new CoA
configuration.

Please respond
- YES if you agree to remove the restriction
    of deferring new CoA
- NO otherwise. Indicate a brief reason

Thanks,

-Rajeev

YES. This depends upon the link layer security.
If the link layer is secured enough, the access router 
belonging to that link layer should allow this.

Yes, you would compare the address handed out for this
PPP session with the care of address in the packet.=20
But you are already doiing quite a few new things when
you implement FMIPv6. In this case, The oAR based on L2 trigger =20
needs to set up a source route for oCoA pointing at the tunnel.
And the nAR based on the L2 trigger needs to set up an
IP interface for the MN with oCoA so that when it decapsulates
from the tunnel, it can send packets over this interface to
the MN. Now on this interface, you will accept packets only
with this oCoA. So, where is the problem ?

I thought the nAR gets the oCoA from the oAR and trusts the
oAR which in turn must have authenticated the MN before.

Charlie,

Hmm, maybe we are not converging after all.

That's not how I envision it.

The way I see it, the MN may decide that it wants to keep the old care of
address for some longer time. Typical reasons might be:

- Pending intertechnology handover to a subnet supporting a different access
medium. Setting up the care of address on the new subnet may require more time
than doing the intertechnology handover.

- Rapid movement to another subnet, in which it does not have enough time on the
new access router to complete handover before moving to a third access router.

- An ongoing real time stream (example: voice call) over a low bandwidth link
that the in-band BU/RR signaling to the HA and the CN would disrupt.

Timing of care of address change is at the MN's discretion, and the spec should
provide support for policy that allows the network to support sending traffic to
the MN, while at the same time, tools for the network to provide hints that, as
you put it yesterday, the MN would be shooting itself in the foot if it didn't
start changing its care of address now.

I don't think one can generalize like this about how long it will take. It will
depend both on the MNs choice and on the network deployment and instantaneous
congestion conditions. If the MN has to retry RR, for example, it could easily
be much longer. The network operator needs the flexibility to configure the
tunnel lifetime as appropriate for the particular deployment.

Like I said in the orginal email, there needs to be mechanism to renew the
tunnel periodically, if the network policy so specifies. This is a policy
decision that must be at the _network operator's_ discretion. The operator
should have the ability to configure the network so that the MN has maximum
freedom to choose when it wants to change its care of address. Simulataneously,
the spec should provide guidelines recommending that the MN change its care of
address immediately upon changing subnet as the generally most efficient course,
but not requiring it.

I would have to see a specific suggestion for a signaling sequence.

We have implemented the design I described, which comes out of the 04 draft, and
the implementation works fine. The tunnel management including renewel isn't
difficult to implement, the hard part was getting the timing on the SolPrRtAdv,
PrRtAdv, FBU, FNA, etc. right, which is completely orthogonal to the tunnel
management. If the Layer 2 triggers are there, tunneling without any of the
prehandover signaling is by far the easiest and cheapest way to optimize
handover.

We did not look at larger system issues, and I suppose we could do a couple of
simulations to explore this, but I would like to avoid any repeat of the MANET
"dueling simulations" experience if possible. We had some success in MWIF by
establishing a baseline simulation upon which the contending parties agreed then
working on the contentious issues from there. We could try that if it looks like
there is interest.

In the first sentence, you say that NA is related to the new care of address
establishment, and in the last that there is no relationship between the new
care of address and the tunnel lifetime. The point of the tunnel is to allow the
MN to continue receiving packets until the new care of address is, in fact,
established, so there seems to me to be a quite intimate relationship between
establishing the care of address and the tunnel lifetime. Fully establishing the
care of address requires than RR and BUs to all CNs performing RO complete, else
those CNs will end up sending packets to the old subnet that get dropped.

Hello Jim,

Unfortunately due to travel requirements, I can't
give this the attention it deserves.

However, I do have a question.  If your mechanism
doesn't care about care-of address management, then
why is it relevant to anything in the [mobile-ip]
working group?

Regards,
Charlie P.

Sorry, but what should the MN do if it receives an RA ? In general,
what should it do with ND ?

FNA is used to confirm a NCoA as soon as a link is established. It has nothing
to do with RR or BU.

Moving forward..

I propose that

- the tunnel lifetime be a configurable parameter
- suggest default lifetime taking RTT, BER etc into account

The result is a simpler protocol that does not require a MN

- to suppress ND
- engage in additional protocol messages to renew tunnel
   lifetime
- use anticipation whenever possible

We should stick with what the guidelines are for base MIPv6.

Correct. This bullet item is under the text that says "When the

Can you point to something in my email that leads you to make this statement?

I believe the issue under discussion is, precisely, care of address management
and how to go about arranging for it after a fast handover. We seem to have two
very different conceptions about how that should be done.

Done!  Shall I post the text to the list?  It's a bit
long to fit in this point-by-point responsive format...

The Binding Authorization contains an authenticator.
If it's invalid, then this status code can deliver the
indication.

Why not?  Isn't that a valid reason to use the Binding Error?

The list of requirements pertains to correspondent nodes.
The requirement you want is that the correspondent node
MUST ignore RTHDR_TYPE2 unless it has transmitted a
Binding Update to the originator of the packet.  It would
be a mistake to drop the packet, though.  The header might
be there for other reasons unrelated to any functionality
of the correspondent node (e.g., it was previously processed
by a mobile router before the mobile router forwarded the
packet to the correspondent node.

I didn't understand this point.  The mandate is already present in
section 9.2.2, and 9.4.6 is about what happens in the error case.

These have been fixed.

Sections 10.2 and 10.3 are supposed to cover that, in the
two major cases.

Should they be renamed?  What I did do was to create a new
term for "registration":
        The process during which a mobile node sends a binding update
        to its home agent, causing the home agent to take the actions
        which will enable packets to be forwarded from the mobile node's
        home network to the mobile node's care-of address.

Charlie P.

Ajoy, under what conditions sending few extra packets
is an issue? If we have such delicate conditions, how do
they perform when a router sends an uncolicited router
advertisement, or some other node sends a neighbor solicitation,
or user of the mobile node wants to browse the Internet
simultaneously, etc.. (many reasons to send/receive
packets at the same time...)

   FWIW, I think that Jim's argument here is eminently

Ajoy, under what conditions sending few extra packets
is an issue? If we have such delicate conditions, how do
they perform when a router sends an unsolicited router
advertisement, or some other node sends a neighbor solicitation,
or user of the mobile node wants to browse the Internet
simultaneously, etc.. (many reasons to send/receive
packets at the same time...)

Ajoy->

This question is difficult to answer unless I use 
a specific air interface technology. For example, in CDMA
2000 access network, each mobile is allocated a low 
bandwidth dedicated pipe and a high bandwidth shared
pipe. The high bandwidth pipe is shared among multiple 
users for obvious reason. The high bandwidth pipe is allocated 
when an MN has enough buffered data to send or receive. Moreover, 
the access time of this channel is very high, hence 
it is not suitable for carrying any real time 
voice or Fast Mobile/IP messages. Typically the shared channel won't 
get allocated for low bandwidth voice over IP or
say Mobile/IP signaling message. In this case, the Mobile/IP
messages will have to compete with VoIP traffic for low
bandwidth channel. On the other hand, the bulky traffic (e.g., FTP)
are buffered until the high bandwidth channel is available for 
communication. This is ok for non-real time traffic because
the users don't care about the buffering delay associated with 
these packets. BTW, the one solution of this problem is 
to allocate high bandwidth dedicated channel to each 
users which is very expensive and not done so far.

Issue 71: HA Service Discovery and MN Address Provisioning
----------------------------------------------------------

http://www.piuha.net/~jarkko/publications/mipv6/issues/issue71.txt

Issue: Mobile IPv6 specifies a Home Agent discovery mechanism as well
as the ability to configure its home address dynamically. These are
specified in sections 6.5, 6.6, 6.7, 6.8, 10.9, 11.3.2, 11.3.3 and
11.3.4
The home agent discovery and address autoconfiguration can be
accomplished via existing mechanisms such as DNS (querying the SRV
records for the HA in its home network) for home agent discovery and
possibly using DHCPv6 for home address assignment. Does the MIPv6
protocol need to incorporate this functionality as part of the base
specification or can these features be worked on as extensions to the
base protocol in a separate draft.

Recommendation:
---------------

1. The home agent discovery mechanism is essential to the base
   protocol for purposes such as:
   a. Load balancing - An HA may reject a binding update from an MN
   because it does not have sufficient resources to serve the MN. The
   MN may need to perform HA discovery to find other HAs in its home
   network. (of course an MN may be configured with the address of
   more than one HA, but this is optional). 
   b. New home agents may be added and existing ones that an MN is
   aware of may be offline (for any number of reasons). In such cases
   the ability to do a dynamic HA discovery is useful.

So instead of pursuing an entirely new mechanism which may take a
while to be standardized, it is better to leave the current HA
discovery mechanism untouched. If DNS based proposals are developed in
the future and implementation experience shows that HA discovery is
not really useful, the feature can be deprecated as part of moving the
protocol to draft standard.

2. The dynamic Home address assignment mechanism via ICMP
   request/response messages (Mobile Prefix
   Solicitation/Advertisement) provide an independent mechanism to
   bootstrap a MN when in a visited network. Relying on DHCPv6 or AAA
   puts dependencies that would make deployment of MIPv6 on a large
   scale rely on existence of DHCP relays or AAA elements etc. 
   
   So lets leave the HoA discovery mechanism in the draft as is.

The size of the draft should not really be a concern since anyone
seriously planning on implementing the spec needs to understand all
the details. 

If you have concerns about the above recommendation, please post your
views to the list.

Disagree. There are ongoing discussions about how ND might be optimized. It is
too soon to say how these may come out, but the purpose is to reduce the amount
of time involved in a MN coming up on a new link. This discussion might in fact
recommend suppressing ND. If so, then I think we should abide by that.

Disagree strongly. As I've mentioned in previous email, tunnel management,
including lifetime renewal, is a simple part of the protocol that we've
implemented as described in my previous email according to draft 04 and found
great success with. I believe that network operators will require the ability to
allow tunnels to be renewed for proper support of MNs.

Can you give me some _technical_ arguments as to why you are so opposed to this?

I don't understand what this is. Could you explain?

The the base MIPv6 spec doesn't define a fast handover algorithm: it doesn't use
tunneling, and it says nothing about anticipated care of address
preconfiguration. None of these topics are included in the basic MIP movement
detection algorithm. We are, in fact, defining a protocol to replace the
movement detection algorithm.

If the movement detection algorithm is replaced, then the base spec kicks in
when the MN begins configuration of the new care of address. If we accept that
the MN has control over when that happens, as the base spec says, then we need
to figure out some way for the network to support the MN until the MN decides
that it's ready. Allowing a configurable tunnel lifetime helps, but it really
won't cover all cases, unless we allow a "good until cancelled" lifetime. As a
practical matter, I think we should avoid this, because it runs the risk of
leaving around the source routes if the MN crashes. So that leaves lifetime
renewal.

Additionally, I don't think we can avoid figuring out some way to cancel the
tunnel when the MN is through configuring its care of address by prohibiting
tunnel renewal. If the tunnel lifetime is configurable, the AR needs to be told
when the MN's routing has changed at the HA and CNs so the AR can delete the
source routes.

I frankly don't see any way that network operators can properly support allowing
the MN to select when it wants to configure its care of address unless tunnel
renewel and cancellation is included. And that is my principle concern.

OK. So, the MN processes RA, could even send a RS then. In other words,
behave like any other node. This is fine with me.

FNA is sent when the NCoA is not confirmed via an FBACK. So, imagine
a MN sends FBU, leaves link and sends FNA. The NAR then confirms NCoA,
which the MN can use to do RR and BU. So, FNA preceeds RR and BU.

BTW, I would like to make FNA an option in RS so that there is a cleaner
RS - RA (with NAACK option) correspondence.

Issue 73: MaxRtrAdvInterval
---------------------------

http://www.piuha.net/~jarkko/publications/mipv6/issues/issue73.txt

In Section 7.5, this number is defined to be 1.5 seconds, but there
may be certain wireless links where periodic multicast router
advertisements are unnecessary or expensive for reasons of spectral
efficiency. 

Proposal: The network administrator should have the option of
configuring this off in such cases. 

Recommendation:
---------------

The primary mechanism for movement detection in Mobile IP is via
listening to router advertisements. Hence in order to support seamless
mobility it is important that the advertisement interval be
sufficiently low in order to enable MNs to detect link
changes. However it is possible that in certain networks movement
detection may be accomplished via other means (link layer) and hence
the need for rtr advts is mitigated. And there may be no reason to
send unsolicited multicase router advertisements periodically at all. 

The following text should be added to the current section 7.5 which
would allow network operators to turn off unsolicited multicast rtr
advts.

"
Multicast router advertisements are not always required in certain
wireless networks that have limited bandwidth. Mobility detection or
link changes in such networks may be done at lower layers. Router
advertisements in such networks SHOULD be sent only when solicited. In
such networks it SHOULD be possible to disable unsolicited multicast
router advertisements on specific interfaces. The MaxRtrAdvInterval in
such a case can be set to some high value such as 31536000.
"

If you have any concerns with the above recommendation, please send a
note to the Mobile IP mailing list.

As I mentioned above, the need for the MN to get involved
in tunnel management between the access routers. This would
require additional protocol messages and code which are not necessary
for a base protocol to operate. These are similar arguments you
would make to reduce the number of protocol messages sent over
the air.

Could you provide some details on how often you had to do tunnel
lifetime renewal and under what conditions
(including the configuration parameters used) ?

I meant configure an prospective IP address through
anticipation.

But, why should there be a "selection" issue in the first place ? Allow the
MN to behave like a Mobile IPv6 node, i.e., it SHOULD configure a new CoA
as soon as it detects a new link. When anticipation is used, it is the question
of when that address is confirmed (i.e., FNA is sent as soon as a new link
is established). Configuring a new CoA does not mean automatic tunnel
expiry.

Anyway, if it is ok with others, this can be an option in the base protocol.

Hi James,

I see no problem, but then again, I haven't had my fingers

Issue 74: Using the CoA as SRC Addr for short-term communications
------------------------------------------------------------------

http://www.piuha.net/~jarkko/publications/mipv6/issues/issue74.txt

On pg. 94 in Section 11.2.1, the second bullet item allows the MN to
use the CoA for certain communications, but I have a difficult time
seeing how this could be done given the standard socket API. Perhaps
this is not an issue for this spec, but it does need some
consideration.

On the next page, the direct delivery option should mention that the
described technique won't work without a Binding Cache entry or an
IPsec SA.

Recommendation:
---------------

The MN while on a foreign link can choose to use the CoA for short
lived communications. IPv6 WG I-D
draft-ietf-ipv6-default-addr-select-09.txt is currently work in
progress and provides a solution w.r.t the address that is selected
for various sessions or applications. Hence policy would specify what
address to use (HoA or CoA) as the source address. The Mobile Ipv6
specification hence does not have to deal with specifying how the MN
chooses the source address and let the IPv6 WG specify this
funcationality. Hence no change to the current recommendation for the
short-term communications text in section 11.2.1

The direct delivery sub section specification in section 11.2.1 should
include the following additional text:

"
The MN may send packets to the CN that includes the home address
destination option directly to the CN only if the MN is aware that the
CN already has a binding cache entry for the MNs Home address. Section
9.2.2 specifies the rules for Home Address Destination Option
Processing at a CN. The MN needs to ensure that there exists an active
binding cache for its home address in order to ensure that the CN will
process the packet.
"

If you have any concerns with the above recommendation, please send a
note to the Mobile IP mailing list.

Issue 89: MH Type field size - 8 or 16 bits
-------------------------------------------

http://www.piuha.net/~jarkko/publications/mipv6/issues/issue89.txt

Issue: The MH type field in (Section 6.1.1, draft 18) is 16 bits and
not 8 bits.  No other IPv6 header has a type larger than 8 bits, and I
(Brian Haley) don't think we'll ever have 65535 types.  Should this be
changed to 8 bits for type and 8 bits reserved?  This also saves a
nthos() for those of us on certain-endian machines 

Recommendation:
---------------

There has been some discussion on this issue but no strong opinions
one way or the other. So lets go with Jari's suggestion which says:

"
Just shorten the field to 8 bits and leave the rest Reserved.
"

If you have any concerns with the above recommendation, please send a
note to the Mobile IP mailing list.

Hello Jim,

I asked my question after some while trying to understand
what you want, in terms of what a Mobile-IP related protocol
could reasonably supply.

If the mobile wants to get a new address, it can
do that.

If it wants to register a new address by way of
Binding Update, it can also.

So far, no new protocol.

If it wants to make a tunnel to a tunnel endpoint
that IS NOT topologically correct, then that seems
qualitatively different than trying to make a tunnel
to a tunnel endpoint that IS topologically correct.
Since Mobile-IP deals with tunnels to topologically
correct endpoint addresses, the former goal seems
out of scope.

If it wants to do something related to care-of addresses
during handover, we can devise a streamlined mechanism
that deals with care-of addresses.  Your mobile nodes
don't have to use it, and then they can do the normal
thing whenever they are ready.

If a handover mechanism does not deal with care-of
address management, then I do not think it belongs
in the [mobile-ip] group.  Your messages seem to ask
for some way that the mobile node can do a fast
handover without initiating any process for getting a care-of
address.  I don't think that's work that belongs in this
group.  In fact, I thought that [seamoby] was created
just for the reason that people who wanted "micromobility"
solutions were looking for another home.

If it's not involved with getting a new care-of address
during handover, I don't see it as relevant to this effort.

I hope this reasoning explains my short question.

Charlie P.

Hi,

I understand that it's stated in Section 6.1.1 that the Mobility Header Length includes the length of the payload protocol (next header), mobility header type, header length, checksum and the message data, in 8-octet units. However, in IPv6 specs. (RFC 2460), it's stated that extension headers' length does not include the first 8-octet. 
Will it result in inconsistency when processing the extension headers? 
Thank you.

RE: [mobile-ip] SA b/w MN and HA of foreign n/w(smooth handoff case)
Mohan,

If we let PANA work before IP address configuration
(i.e., using unspecified IP address as source on the client),
then this should work. This is akin to use of unspecified=20
IP address in DHCP and Mobile IPv4. Link-layer and IP
address of the PAA/router can be learned during "discovery"
stage.

I still don't understand how we can ensure smooth
operation using this dedicated channel which cannot
even accomodate few additional IP packets.

For example, what happens if some of those
real-time packets needed to be fragmanted? Maybe this
doesn;t apply to voice packets since they are small,
but any larger packet can be pushed over the edge due
to tunneling overhead of Mobile IP based protocols. Now
you have more packets....

If accumulative bandwidth is an issue, well then additional
extension headers (e.g., routing header) and one or more
encapsulation can consume more bandwidth than we
have provisioned for the dedicated channel.

Also, how does the network decide which packets can take
the dedicated channel? In the presence of IPsec encryption
and changing source and destionation addresses via Mobile IP,
filtering of those packets is not practical.

What I'm trying to say is, before 2 packets of mobility signaling,
I think this system has some other problems to deal with....

I agree, but I would delete "such as 31536000". (How did you arrive
at this particular number, by the way?)

Well, this would not have caused problems as long as the MH was kept
a final header. However, issue #93 changed this already. The new text
says:

	8-bit unsigned integer. Length of the Mobility Header in units of 8
	octets, excluding the first 8 octets.

Hi

I have some questions about Registration Reply code "1"in Mobile IPv4.
RFC 3220 says as follows.

////////////////////
3.4. Registration Reply

       0 registration accepted
       1 registration accepted, but simultaneous mobility
        bindings unsupported

3.8.2.2. Accepting a Valid Request

    If the Registration Request satisfies the validity checks in Section
    3.8.2.1, and the home agent is able to accommodate the Request, the
    home agent MUST update its mobility binding list for the requesting
    mobile node and MUST return a Registration Reply to the mobile node.


    In this case, the Reply Code will be either 0 if the home agent
    supports simultaneous mobility bindings, or 1 if it does not.  See
    Section 3.8.3 for details on building the Registration Reply message.
///////////////////////

If HA does not support simultaneous bindings, in which following case 
should HA send Registration Reply with code "1"?

-Receiving RRQ with "S" bit sets. (HA notifies MN that the it does not 
support simultaneous bindings only when it receive simultaneous binding 
request from the MN)
-Receiving RRQ with "S" bit sets and  RRQ  with "S"bit not sets (regardless 
of the "S" bit status, HA notifies MN that the HA does not support 
simultaneous bindings.)

thanks in advance.

When the MN receives an RA, it should begin the process of changing its care of
address. As for what should be done about ND, I believe that is currently under
discussion in the IPv6 working group (and also here). There have been a number
of proposals for either removing ND, deferring it, or optimizing it out.
Whatever falls out of that discussion would be applicable.

Why? What depends on receiving an FNA? I thought the purpose of sending an FNA
was to signal to the new AR when the care of address was fully configured on the
link.

launch attacks without being detected (from a location

I don't quite understand your comment. My point was to avoid signaling  
from the critical path. MN can always send or receive signaling when 
high bandwidth channel is allocated or when no voice frames are 
being sent over dedicated channel.

Ajoy

configuration




I still don't understand how we can ensure smooth
operation using this dedicated channel which cannot
even accomodate few additional IP packets.

For example, what happens if some of those
real-time packets needed to be fragmanted? Maybe this
doesn;t apply to voice packets since they are small,
but any larger packet can be pushed over the edge due
to tunneling overhead of Mobile IP based protocols. Now
you have more packets....

If accumulative bandwidth is an issue, well then additional
extension headers (e.g., routing header) and one or more
encapsulation can consume more bandwidth than we
have provisioned for the dedicated channel.

Also, how does the network decide which packets can take
the dedicated channel? In the presence of IPsec encryption
and changing source and destionation addresses via Mobile IP,
filtering of those packets is not practical.

What I'm trying to say is, before 2 packets of mobility signaling,
I think this system has some other problems to deal with....

I have two reactions:
  This is MIPv4 coming back to MIPv6, once someone had suggested 
removing RO from MIPv6 spec, so this proposal is in line with his proposal?
  One conclusion is we are talking about only WLANs links to which every 
new feature in MIPv6 is applicable?
  Keep up the good and hard work.

   I think I agree with Jim here. I guess that I'm sort of
   suspicious of protocol edicts which try to enforce higher
   principles, especially when there is already built in
   motivation. In this particular case, it seems to me that
   the mobile node already has a fair amount of motivation 
   to disentangle itself after it's moved so requiring it
   to do that is either redundant, or needlessly constrictive.
   We should really concentrate on the things that cause
   the protocol to fail... and let the IAB deal with the things
   that cause the net to fail :-)

Raj,

I think some sort of communication, either formal or informal, needs to be made
to the IPv6 WG team doing the IPv6 socket API so that support for this is
inserted, if it isn't already there. It seems like this is generating a
requirement on the socket API that needs to be taken into account.

Charlie,

Perhaps I am not communicating clearly, but I seem to have given you the wrong
impression about how I believe fast handover should work in the context of
Mobile IP.

I am not going to try to answer your email below, as I don't see any specific,
technical points that I can answer. However, I have some specific technical
comments relating to the current design and the disucssion that you, Rajeev, and
I have been having that I will be sending out, hopefully later today.

            jak

Sure. If the link layer is insecure, there are more problems than that. Anybody
could spoof a standard ND message too.

Hi all,

I am working on changing our implementation to use the new authorization
data option.

I noticed that the ordering of the options was not defined per issue 110.
This makes the calculation of the authorization data complex. In draft 15
the auth. data suboption was the last, so the building and processing of
the data was straightforward.

IMHO, it would make sense also with the MH options to make the
authorization data option always the last one, so that the processing of
the MH and the options could be done in a single run of the MAC function.

Regards,

Henrik

Hello Michael,

The protocol design is not based solely on "principle". If it
did, we should not strictly allow using previous CoA on the
new link and insert host routes.  Clearly there is a pain in not
allowing using previous CoA. So, we do allow for it, the question
is for how long. Should the host routes linger around longer than
necessary for a MN to complete its Mobile IPv6 operations ?
What is the obligation for a MN in terms of address configuration ?

From the discussion so far, I gather that the MN SHOULD become
MIPv6 end-point as soon as it attaches to a new router. However,
the protocol should take into account such events as potential
packet loss etc. So, the tunnel lifetime is a configurable parameter which
should take into account the idiosyncracies of the wire(less).
And, there should be an option to renew the tunnel
lifetime. I have to say I have not thought of all possible implications
of such a renewal..


-Rajeev

James,

The current IPv6 default address selection draft in section 5, rule 4
says:
"

   Implementations should provide a mechanism allowing an application 
   to reverse the sense of this preference and prefer care-of addresses 
   over home addresses (e.g., via appropriate API extensions). Use of 
   the mechanism should only affect the selection rules for the 
   invoking application. 
"

Now is this API extension a requirement on the socket API? If so, I
think that the requirement is already covered. If not, we may want to
make a formal request to the IPv6 WG that this requirement be considered
as part of the default address selection mechanism or the advanced socket
mechanisms draft.

I'd like to do this. I assume we also mandate all padding to be
before BAD.

If you are going to do this, you'll also have change the alignment
requirements for BAD.

Personally, I don't see why this should be specified.  Normally, BAD
will end up being the last option anyway and the implementation is
only effected in the rare case where BAD is not last.

For a lot of implementations the savings are going to be even less 
significant since the whole mobility message may be in multiple bufers
(scatter/gather) and multiple MAC calls are needed anyway.

I think an important question is, how does an application
know which IP address(es) is a home address (permanent)
and which ones are not.. (some of those non-home addresses
might be used as care-of addresses....)

We have a draft that can help. Address selection was not
one of the usage scenarios we considered, but still this api
can allow a mobile node to figure out its home address(es)
and the current care-of address(es).

Ajoy,

My point is, designing a network that can barely
accomodate an ongoing multimedia session and not
even few additional packets once in a while is not
practical. Therefore, "IP address conffiguration
messages blocking real time traffic" should not be
a concern here, IMHO.

I tend to agree with Alper in general. We should
assume that a link layer will accommodate IP
address configuration! If the channel allocation
is such that there is delay, then performance
tuning is necessary. We cannot predicate something
like IP address configuration (for our protocol design
purposes) on how _each_ link layer carries frames.
I am not saying that it is unimportant, but it has
to be done some place else.

=> I'm not sure it's a link layer security issue. 
On a multiaccess link you can still see/spoof other
nodes' link layer addresses even if L2 encryption
is used. It's a property of a multiaccess link. 

On a p2p radio link, how does the new AR know which
"channel/port" the MN will attach to so that it can
disable (or enable with the right address) ingress
filtering.

Anybody
  > could spoof a standard ND message too.

=> This is not the same thing though. Ingress filtering
was developed as a tool that can help locate attackers.
The current draft kills that for some unknown period 
of time.

=> Well, the tunnelling o/h can be avoided with HC.
Generally some BW reservation would be used with the 
types of links we're discussing.

=> Yes, these would cause a problem for voice channels,
but the BU can be treated differently. On these links
you can setup a signalling channel for BUs, SIP signalling
..etc because they also have different properties (reliability
requirements for one) from real time apps. 
So I agree (and I've discussed this in great detail
with radio experts) that sending a BU can be done without
disturbing ongoing sessions, but you need to pick the 
right channel that has the right characteristics.

Hello Hesham,

the prefix used in matching the source address
should also include the appropriate prefix(es) valid on the
previous access router. Since the access routers
are assumed to have a trust relationship, the
additional prefix(es) can be configured manually, or else, with
an API permitting, through HI/Hack.

Not exactly since the Previous router can supply the exact
(previous) IP address of the MN. Of course a malicious node
could spoof that address itself, but that probability is smaller.
Furthermore, if we keep the tunnel lifetime short enough, the
incentive for launching an improbable "attack" is decreased even
more.

=> The attacker doesn't need to guess, on a multiaccess
link this can be seen.

=> Yes, but with many MNs moving we would suddenly have 
many IP addresses to use. I don't have numbers obviously
and we don't know how long the lifetime of the tunnel will
be either.

Just submitted a new draft that will appear in the next few days but in the
meantime is at;

http://www.radiorouter.com/technology/draft-oneill-mipv6-cao-00.txt

The Care of Address Option is intended to enable a MN to send directly from
a foreign subnet using its HoA as a source address by redirecting ingress
filtering to undertake the test on the CCoA in the CAO.

The CAO can also be used when either at home or on a foreign network (direct
or reverse tunnelling) to communicate the MN location and hand-off events to
the CN which populates an Inverse BCE. The IBCE may be used by mobility
aware applications / policy issues commensurate with the level of assurance
obtained as to the correctness of the CCoA. The IBCE is not used to redirect
packets but with suitable security enhancements may be useful in the
initiation of RO.

I'd recommend that this be kept well outside the scope of the base spec.

Comments welcome. Apologies if this has been discussed.

Alan.

Putting extended into a separate doc within MIP wg seems much the best thing
to me at this. It may well then be necessary to split part of the extended
mode features into a specific doc for NEMO and keep the main signalling and
forwarding features in MIP.

When you have updated the HMIP draft then I'd suggest that I document in a
separate draft the changes I would like to see to integrate Nested MIP
requirements (requirements + feature changes), or added as a HMIPv6
extension doc, and thereby avoid parallel terminology and solution work.

Hope that is ok with you,

Alan.

Hi all, 

After some discussion with the chairs we agreed
that we will send an update on HMIPv6 to the 
list FYI and comments. 

A couple of people have indicated that it might
be good to put extended mode in a separate draft,
partly because it is helpful for nemo and partly
because it will need some more work to accomodate
the latest changes in the MIPv6 base. 

Extended mode might be useful for nemo, but it's too
early to tell right now, for this reason it is hard
to keep it in a MIP WG document. On the other hand, 
it is also useful for removing the extra tunnel
when CNs do not use/implement RO. 

What we're trying to do is to finish the draft ASAP. 
For this reason, and given comments on the list, the
chairs suggested that we remove extended mode for 
now and proceed with Basic mode only. If we later
agree on a nice solution for using extended mode
with MNs implementing RR with CNs, then we can proceed
with a separate draft. 

We are now working on a new revision that will reflect
these changes, your feedback is welcome as usual.

Hesham

James,

I also have some likely requirements here on controlled allocation of MAPs.
At the moment the MAP is selected by the MN based on routing metrics /
precendence.

Hesham seems happy for that kind of work to continue outside the main spec
so maybe we can combine these two aspects (adertisement and
selection/allocation) together in a single piece of work down the line..

Alan.

This is an issue that has come up in our discussions as well.

We are particularly interested in some way of doing MAP discovery that does
not
involve detecting modified RAs. This could involve a custom built
administratively scoped multicast discovery protocol, or possibly the use of
SLP
or some other discovery protocol.

The reason for this is because we would like to maintain the option of
deploying
MIPv6 with standard IPv6 routers, and then deploy MAPs for location privacy
without requiring any modifications on the routers or configuration of
router
advertisements.

This option does not have to be in the base specification, unless there is
wider
agreement that this would be a better design.
If it is not in the base specification, then RA-based MAP advertisement
should
be properly qualified as the advertisement technique so that other
techniques
are allowed. We are prepared to work together on designing a MAP discovery
technique if there is broader interest in this possibility, either in a
separate
draft or as a contribution to the base draft.

            jak

Hello,

I'd like to solicit some comments/feedback on a Mobile IPv4
feature...

When 'R' bit in the mobility agent advertisement is set, that
means the MNs have to register with the FA even if they are using
co-located care-of address. They have to get authenticated and
authorized. My understanding is that this feature is meant to be
used as an access control mechanism...

Question is: what happens when there are more than one router
on the subnet? One or more of them might be implementing an
FA functionality. Is a MN supposed to be registering with every
one of the FAs? Even if it does, how are the non-FA routers notified
about this MN? Even if an FA requires MNs to register, they can
still get around this if other routers do not apply access control.

Any thoughts/feedback, especially design/deployment experience 
on this matter??

We are looking at a similar scenario with PANA, and need to make
a design decision. PANA authentication agents are likely to be
co-located with first hop routers, and there can be multiple such
agents. Therefore the same issue....

Thanks.

alper

Hi Alan and James,

For an equivalency, we could allocate a site-scope local
multicast to which which the MAP sends advertisements.

This could be send with a finite multicast hop limit,
and maybe the MAP could indicate the original hoplimit
in the advertised option.

Therefore, each MAP may only send the multicast packets a
certain number of hops, and therefore their influence could be
controlled. Also, since the original number of hops is
available, MN's can determine the distance to the MAP
based on current hop limit (for map selection heuristics).

MAP options will not arrive together, so MN's may initially
select a non-optimal MAP, but a mechanism may be described
which allows later selection of a better MAP, if desired.

As a bonus, Access networks where no nodes are using HMIP
multicast discovery receive no advertisements ;)

Selection of HMIPv6 MAP could be performed based on the union
of HMIPv6 advertising techniques (Mcast/RA).  If the group
doesn't exist and no RA advertisements are received, then
fallback is MIPv6.

Greg,
Who's happy if he can use radvd to send map options.

Probably before we go into solution space we could do with detailing the
requirements and trade-offs wrt HMIPv6 as is (although everything you say
makes good sense for your implied requirements :-)

Cannot really do that till draft update appears although I am happy to write
my specific requirements out fairly quickly after that to cover the delta
between HMIPv6 and Nested MIP requirements.

Alan.

Hi,

As you recall, issue #69 was a complaint that our specification does
not describe in sufficient detail how to use IPsec to protect the MN-HA
signaling. As a result of that, Vijay and myself wrote a note that
was posted to the list. This note was brief and didn't include everything.
We also debated some aspects of the note.

With Francis and Vijay, we have now written an expanded note in draft
form. The intention of this draft is to become a companion RFC for
the base MIPv6 specification and to illustrate in detail all aspects
of the issue: processing requirements, packet formats, configuration
procedures, and internal processing order. The normative processing
requirements will stay in the base RFC, however (with some updates
needed). But seeing only those processing requirements it isn't
very easy to understand the whole picture, and it may not be enough
to convince ourselves and the IESG that this actually works ;-)

The draft has been submitted, but before it appears in the official
directories, you can access it at the following URL:

   http://www.piuha.net/~jarkko/publications/mipv6/draft-ietf-mobileip-mipv6-ha-ipsec-00.txt

Writing this draft involved coming up with solutions to certain issues
such as how to use dynamic keying without causing chicken-and-egg problems.
You probably also recall Francis' draft which listed a number of issues
that were either necessary to fix before IPsec and MIPv6 worked together,
or optimized their behavior when used together. Finally, we made some
design choices (how easy the rules are for BITS implemenations etc) that
could perhaps be debated. So take a look at Section 10 for a discussion
of some of these hard issues.

Jari

Hi,

I have a question.

In section 5.2, the wire format of the HoTI packet is described as
follows:

>        IPv6 header (source = care-of address, destination = home agent)
>        ESP header
>        IPv6 header (source = home address, destination = correspondent node)
>        Mobility Header
>           Home Test Init

But, in section 6, the draft says as:

>          - If the mobile node tunnels Home Test Init messages or pay-
>          load packets via the home agent with IPsec protection, the
>          mobile node MUST use the Home Address destination and IPsec
>          tunnel mode encapsulation.

Which is correct?

And, same question about the format of the HoT packet.  In section
5.2, there is no RTHDR2 in the wire format, but in section 6, the
draft says 'the home anget MUST use the Type 2 Routing header and
IPsec tunnel mode encapsulation.'

OK.  My next question is (i'm sorry if this had been already discussed
in the list but I couldn't find related threads), why not to use home
address destination option and rthdr type2 for an outer header of the
tunneling packets?  Just to save some bits?

If we uses a tunnel mode encapsulation between a mobile node's home
address and the home agent address (if I remember correctly, this is a
proposed style before), we do not need to manage SA pair from Mobile
IPv6 stack.  If we do so, I guess we need not to define an IPsec
API(listed as an open issues in section 10) to manage SA from the
Mobile IPv6.

   OK.  My next question is (i'm sorry if this had been already discussed
   in the list but I couldn't find related threads), why not to use home
   address destination option and rthdr type2 for an outer header of the
   tunneling packets?  Just to save some bits?
   
=> in fact there are two possibilities :
 - either the IPsec tunnel is built with the CoA as the outer MN address
   (this is simpler and more efficient but this puts a constraint on
    the IPsec implementation)
 - or the IPsec tunnel is built with the HoA and the mobility support
   adds a HAO or a RH2 (this works with a stupid IPsec implementation).
I argued for a SHOULD for the first solution and a MAY for the second
but not everybody agreed for a flexible solution...

   If we uses a tunnel mode encapsulation between a mobile node's home
   address and the home agent address (if I remember correctly, this is a
   proposed style before), we do not need to manage SA pair from Mobile
   IPv6 stack.

=> we already need this for the BU/BA protection... and my final goal
is to get some integration between IPsec and Mobility (the API and
a "re-address" exchange in the Son-Of-Ike).

   If we do so, I guess we need not to define an IPsec API
   (listed as an open issues in section 10) to manage SA from the
   Mobile IPv6.
   
=> in fact the create/delete (aka rekeying) of the current API is
enough for today needs. When PFS is not used in quick mode, IKE
supports a fairly cheap rekeying/readdressing.

About the inconsistency in the draft: Section 5.2 is right, Section 6
just didn't get updated when we decided to go for the tunnel mode only
encapsulation.

And then to the reasons of tunnel mode vs. tunnel mode plus HAO/RH2.
Here are some considerations:

- There's an efficiency difference of 24 bytes/packet in favor of
   the tunnel-mode only solution. This probably does not matter at
   all for just HOT/HOTI protection, but it may matter for protecting
   all of the payload packets. Yet, in the long term I would somehow
   see it more likely that the traffic is secured end-to-end rather
   than just to the HA.

   Conclusion: it may matter a bit (no pun intended), but not much.

- Direct tunnel mode encapsulation looks prettier.

   Conclusion: Hmm...

- Direct tunnel mode encapsulation needs an API towards IPsec.
   (It needs an implementation of an API, I don't think we need
   to specify it).

   The functionality that is needed is this: whenever a care-of
   address is updated in a binding entry, find all tunnel mode SAs where
   the destination selector is the corresponding home address
   and the source selector is the home agent, and update the tunnel
   gateway address. (Exercise for the reader: prove that this is
   sufficient even when dynamic keying is used.)

   The IPsec implementation that I wrote long time ago would have
   been able to offer such an API. Do all implementations have this?
   No. Is the API requirement unreasonable: I don't think so, it
   is likely that most implementations need an API anyway for a
   variety of reasons, including management.

   Conclusion: The direct tunnel mode encapsulation requires an
   API, but in some cases such an API may be available. But it
   is an additional burden.

- Recreate vs. update: Francis pointed out that it was
   possible to do a create/delete e.g. via PF_KEY instead
   of adding complex support for modifying SAs.

   (I might also be possible to have IKE renegotiate, but
   that I actually doubt because I don't know how the
   tunnel gateway would be set correctly automatically.
   Remember that IKE is run on the care-of addresses,
   so I'm not sure it survives movement if if the SAs
   created by it do.)

   Conclusion: there may be some easier ways to do the
   API than to require an update operation.

All in all, it's some bandwidth savings and slightly
prettier format vs. some additional implementation
requirements. Which side has heavier weight? When writing
the draft I was undecided for a long time, but I now think
that perhaps this is something where we should just require
the cleanest packet format. UNLESS this causes real problems
for many implementations.

Keiichi, others, please comment if this is possible in
your implementation!

Hello Alper/Rajeev,
I respectfully disagree with your opinion. 
We want to design a protocol that should 
work in present as well as future wireless technologies. 
Otherwise, we are not designing protocol that can be 
used in most of the cases. BTW, 
please read RFC 3243 that seems to make good case
for 0 byte header compression. I think some 
of the argument will be still valid for 
our discussions. 
Regards,
Ajoy


PS: Alper, my concern is not ablout sending signaling message.
But I do not want to make signaling message as time critical message.
If we design protocol that can work without impacting the performance
of user even if signaling messages are delayed, we should be fine.
This is what we will get by deferring care of address configuration.

I tend to agree with Alper in general. We should
assume that a link layer will accommodate IP
address configuration! If the channel allocation
is such that there is delay, then performance
tuning is necessary. We cannot predicate something
like IP address configuration (for our protocol design
purposes) on how _each_ link layer carries frames.
I am not saying that it is unimportant, but it has
to be done some place else.

I haven't checked these comments against the posted draft
so some of them might have been fixed since the version I looked at
before the I-D was submitted.

A few comments:

          - When a packet is matched against IPsec security policy, an
          address appearing in a Home Address destination option MUST
          be considered as the source address of the packet.

          - Similarly, a home address within a Type 2 Routing header
          MUST be considered as the destination address of the packet.

Similar requirents to the above apply for the SA matching rules I assume.
I would make sense to make than explicit.

          - If the mobile node tunnels Home Test Init messages or pay-
          load packets via the home agent with IPsec protection, the
          mobile node MUST use the Home Address destination and IPsec
          tunnel mode encapsulation.

I misread the "Home address destination" as "destination option".
What is that part of the sentence trying to say? Just that the IPsec
tunnel is for the home address? (The tunnel endpoint is the CoA.)

          - If the home agent tunnels Home Test messages or payload
          packets to the mobile node with IPsec protection, the home
          agent MUST use the Type 2 Routing header and IPsec tunnel
          mode encapsulation.

The tunneled packets don't have a RH. They just have ESP plus an outr IP header
as stated in section 5.

         - SA2(OUT, 5002, home address, ESP, TRANSPORT):
           source = home agent & destination = home address & proto = MH
         - SA1(IN, 5001, home agent, ESP, TRANSPORT):
           source = home address & destination = home agent & proto = MH

The 5001 and 5002 SPIs might throw people off thinking they are fixed.
Using SPIa, SPIb, etc might make more sense.

In 7.3.1.

       mobile node SPD OUT:
         - IF source = home address & destination = home agent & proto = MH
           THEN CREATE ESP TRANSPORT SA: local phase 1 identity = user1

Conceptually should the CREATE also specify that the created SA be bound
to the home address? Or where/how do you specify the binding between
"user1" and the specific home address?
Is that what the text at the end of 7.3.1 is saying?

In 7.3.2 you have
     Note that this specification has still the same problems as the
     manual protection for return routability signaling had.
However, the manual section (7.2.2) doesn't list any poribles.

Section 8 uses "forwarding" in some cases when the packet is originated.
Using "sending" in those cases makes more sense.
E.g. in 8.1 step 5.
Also, section 8.5 step 5 says "routed" whre "sent" makes more sence.

Ajoy,

Defering the CoA configuration may result in extended tunnels
and host routes at the leaf nodes. Hence its a good reason to
configure the CoA expeditiously. And this can be accomplished
if you have advanced knowledge of handoffs (via L2 triggers).

Limiting number of signaling messages is important but is the
overhead of managing extended tunnels and host routes at edge
routers greater than a few additonal messages? Some sort of 
middle ground is required here. 
I think the applicability of the fast-handoff immediately may
well be 802.11 networks in which case we really should not be
too worried about number of messages. The implementation and
deployment experience will definitely help guide any changes
and enhancements to the protocol that would make it more 
applicable for the wide-area cellular networks. Trying to get
the protocol perfect and suitable for all kinds of networks 
that may exist in the future is difficult. The idea of extending
the baseline FMIPv6 draft for specific L2s in separate drafts
will be able to accomodate the specific needs.

And you'd think this would be implemented by the vast majority of routers 
so that the option would actually be usable in reality?

(I didn't read the draft, at least yet.)

One thing that has bothered me about the fast handover discussion for a while is
a preponderance of speculative thinking about how link layers work. Phil's
suggestion to do a spec on how fast handover might work on 802.11 is a hopeful
antidote.

Talking about "setting up seperate channels for signaling" is an example of
this. There are link layers out there, we need to accommodate them. We may be
able to influence link layer designers to go in a particular direction that is
more beneficial for IP, but we can only push them so far. Meanwhile, there is
the reality of what is available today, let's make sure that Mobile IP
accommodates it.

If you folks have problems with the way that 3GPP2 does it's link layer, I
suggest you take it up with 3GPP2. Maybe what we need is a "fast handovers on
3GPP2" spec that will inject a little reality into the discussion, like the
802.11  spec should.

I wasn't talking about encrypting the packets, I was talking about someone
sending a packet with somebody else's MAC address. On switched Ethernet, 802.1x
locks down a port to a particular MAC address and no other MAC address can use
it nor can any MAC address send from another port (though I am told in practice
that many switch products roll over to using shared access if more hosts try to
connect than there are ports).

On 802.11, any host can spoof a MAC address, there's no ports to lock down.

Like I said in  a previous email, the ingress filtering can be established based
on the MAC address. The MAC address is sent by the old router to the new in the
HI/HaCK exchange. The new router can use that to perform ingress (actually
egress) filtering.

Alternatively, the old CoA must be sent along with the HI/HaCK, in order that
the source route at the new router be properly constructed. The new router can
use the old CoA to perform ingress filtering.

Having a malicious node spoof a previous CoA is no different than having a
malicious node spoof a CoA on the current subnet.

Having a malicious node spoof a previous CoA is no different than having
a
malicious node spoof a CoA on the current subnet.

=> The difference is you can't locate the attacker
(identify the subnet). This is the intention of 
RFC2267.

The router needs to do ingress filtering by address rather than by
prefix. 

=> That can only be done on p2p links.

But
it is doing that anyway in effect for packets coming in through the
tunnel.

=> I'm concerned about packets originating from the
MN (on the ingress interface of the router).

I wasn't talking about encrypting the packets, I was talking about
someone
sending a packet with somebody else's MAC address. 

=> I thought that was what you meant by L2 security.

On switched Ethernet,
802.1x
locks down a port to a particular MAC address and no other MAC address
can use
it nor can any MAC address send from another port (though I am told in
practice
that many switch products roll over to using shared access if more hosts
try to
connect than there are ports).

On 802.11, any host can spoof a MAC address, there's no ports to lock
down.

=> Exactly, and I assume 802.11 is is what we're mainly 
talking about, not switched ethernets.

Like I said in  a previous email, the ingress filtering can be
established based
on the MAC address. The MAC address is sent by the old router to the new
in the
HI/HaCK exchange. The new router can use that to perform ingress
(actually
egress) filtering.

=> I understood that, but that does not stop anyone
from spoofing the MAC and IP address. The actual 
_values_ will be correct, but there is no way of 
mapping them to the _right_ machine. In other words, 
how does the AR know if these values are coming from the 
MN that the oAR was referring to, and not some other node?

As a general rule, it is not a good idea to do service discovery by having the
service advertise (routers being the exception because the advertisements only
happen on a single link). The Novell discovery protocol often consumed 10% of
the local network bandwidth because it had the services multicasting periodic
advertisements.

A better idea is to have the host multicast to an administratively scoped (RFC
2365, BCP23) multicast address when it wants to find the MAP. The network
operator controls the scopes, so different MAPs can appear in different pieces
of the network topology.

Alternatively, we could use an anycast address, as is done with the Home Agent.

One issue is whether there are particular attributes characterizing a MAP other
than its location in the topology that might be of interest to a MN. The
location in the topology is controlled by the administratively scoped multicast.
If so, then we may want to look at a more general service discovery protocol,
like SLP. Otherwise, we may need to define a protocol to allow the MN to sort
through the attributes. If not, then we can just use a multicast or anycast
address.

The other issue is how a host knows when it has moved outside the scope of a
MAP. Perhaps the returned MAP adverisement contains information (like subnets
covered) which the host can use to determine when it has to look for a new MAP.
This avoids the problem of the host having to constantly probe, or the MAP to
constantly multicast.

One thing that has bothered me about the fast handover discussion for a
while is
a preponderance of speculative thinking about how link layers work.
Phil's
suggestion to do a spec on how fast handover might work on 802.11 is a
hopeful
antidote.

=> Agreed.

Talking about "setting up seperate channels for signaling" is an example

may be
able to influence link layer designers to go in a particular direction
that is
more beneficial for IP, but we can only push them so far.

We are not talking about 802.11, we're talking about
cellular links that run IP right? 

UMTS people are defining different types of signalling
channels to accomodate SIP signalling for example. This
can be reused, why not?

There is no need to have extended tunnels. The 04 draft describes a 3 party
tunnel handover protocol that does not require tunnel chaining. We've
implemented this protocol, and it works fine (i.e. we have running code). 3
party handover accommodates many possible applications, including the ones that
Ajoy has mentioned.

The basic design philosophy should be for the network to the support MN choice
in when it configures its CoA. Mobile IP has always left the ultimate decision
about when to configure the CoA with the MN, though up until the fast handover
work, it has not included any network support for explicitly fixing the short
term routing failure caused by handover. Now that we are putting in that
support, I think we should make sure that we maintain the same basic design
philosophy with respect to CoA configuration, even if it requires additional
support in the network side. Of course, the spec can make recommendations about
what is most appropriate.

I'm not so sure. In a recent paper by Bill Aurbaugh, U. Maryland, he measured L2
blackout times of 120-400 ms for 802.11 handover in infrastructure mode. With
those kinds of L2 blackout times, the Mobile IP handover will be in the noise.
It may be necessary to put the card and APs into infrastructureless mode, and
actually define a complete IP access point protocol rather than use the 802.11
infrastructure mode handover. I think infrastructureless handover is about 5 ms,
but there are definitely questions about whether the host can handle beacon
management  without firmware support when there are lots of hosts in the cell.

> too worried about number of messages.

I strongly disagree with this. There is no QoS on 802.11 currently, so the MIP
signaling messages will end up contenting with all others. Enough MNs in a cell
and the MIP signaling could be delayed by link contention. Just because this
link protocol has 802 in its name doesn't mean that it behaves like wired
Ethernet.

Also, as a general design principle, I think it is a good idea to look for
protocols that are not chatty. IKE is an example. Now, the IKE WG is looking at
"son of IKE" because there are perceived to be too many messages in IKE main
mode (among other problems). I'd prefer not to have to look at "son of FMIPv6"
in a couple years, it is timeconsuming enough to have to do it the first time.

I certainly agree that having drafts for specific L2s will ground the protocol
in reality, but I disagree about cellular application being in the far future. I
think it would be wise to apply the same exercise currently being done with
802.11 to cellular, 3GPP2 would be good. As you know, there are some important
differences between cellular and wireless LAN protocols that could end up
influencing the design. There are a number of members of the MIP WG who have
expertiese in cdma2000 that could undertake this exercise.

Another possible alternative would be to halt the current work on a generalized
fast handover protocol, or take it to informational or experimental, as is being
done with the FMIPv4 work, and focus instead on standardizing fast handover for
particular link layers. I'm not sure I am in favor of this, but I really do want
to avoid speculative talk about "separate signaling channels for Mobile IP
signaling" and "not worring about low bandwidth channels because, in the future,
everybody will have a 1 Mbps dedicated link." This will simply not be the case.
Even with 802.11, hosts get only a percentage of the bandwidth depending on the
number of hosts in the cell.

I guess what I am saying is that it doesn't, but absent any specific security
measures on the local link, the same problem applies to any node on the local
link, regardless of whether it has made a handover or not.

If the channels are available and 3GPP is can be convinced to get rid of GPRS
and use Mobile IP, why not? :-) Maybe we could also convince them to do true
make-before-break, like Flarion's flash-OFDM, so that a special fast handover
protocol wasn't necessary.

To me, what this argues for is standardizing drafts that specify how to do fast
handover on specific link layers. Maybe there is too much diversity in how
handover is done to write an optimization draft for a generic fast handover
protocol.

Alternatively, perhaps we could section the fast handover draft into techniques
(anticipated care of address change, tunnel-based routing fixup) that could be
applied to specific link layers with their own particular signaling. This is
somewhat how we did the FMIPv4 draft.

Yes, link layers can be very different. What is needed is a way to
pass Mobile-IP Registration and CoA related packets within the link layer
hand off. In other words nesting Mobile IP handoff in link layer handoff.

The following  draft indicates how this can be done in 802.11 and Mobile
IP.

So here's how I see this working:

1) Old AR and new AR have a security association.

2) Old AR and new AR exchange HI/HaCK with old CoA and L2 id of MN about to
undergo handover. New AR agrees to handle the tunnel.

3) New AR inserts a source route, and simultaneously modifies its ingress filter
so that packets from old CoA originating on the air interface side will get
routed into the tunnel interface.

4) MN shows up on new link, starts sending all packets with old CoA to new AR.

5) New AR checks against source routes, old CoA matches, link layer address
matches, routes down the tunnel.

Let's consider some attacks:

1) Attacker on the air interface side starts sending packets with the old CoA
and the link layer address (both need to be spoofed in order to pass the ingress
filter). The router will route down the tunnel.

2) Attacker on the air interface side starts sending packets with a vaild CoA on
the subnet and a valid link layer address of another node on the subnet. The
router routes the packet out.

So I guess I don't see much difference. Or did you have a different threat in
mind?

>=> The difference is you can't locate the attacker
>(identify the subnet). This is the intention of
>RFC2267.

As Section 1 of RFC 2267 says:

   While the filtering method discussed in this document does
   absolutely nothing to protect against flooding attacks which
   originate from valid prefixes (IP addresses), it will prohibit an
   attacker within the originating network from launching an attack of
   this nature using forged source addresses that do not conform to
   ingress filtering rules.

The source route makes the old CoA a valid (/128) prefix on the subnet, because
it is established by a secure transaction between the routers.

Another point is,  are you assuming that a L2 connected device MUST
not be trusted ? Are not all wireless L2 connections authenticated
is some way ? 802.11 does.

See my comments below.

You also are assuming the attacker has access to the L2 security
credentials of the legitimate MN somehow. Highly unlikely.

Bernard,

How is this randomly chosen pre-shared key (MN-AAAH) distributed? What kind
of out-of-band mechanism do you recommend? Should we have a draft to address
this issue? Or is it a deployment issue?

Issue 368: Security issues with MIP-12
Submitter: Bernard Aboba
Submitter email address: aboba@internaut.com
Date first submitted: September 17, 2002
Reference:
Document: MIP-12
Comment type: T
Priority: S
Section: 5.2, 10
Rationale/Explanation of issue:

There is a potential weakness in the generation of MN session keys.
The size of the MN-HA long term shared secret is not specified.. Recommend
requiring this to be randomly chosen and at least 96-bits.
There is also no requirement that the session keys be temporally and
globally unique, and since they are only dependent on a 64-bit nonce, the
MN IP address, and the long-term secret, they could repeat.

While the keys are all encrypted, I'd suggest a larger nonce (128-bits),
and some additional mixing (such as by adding the FA IP address to the
hash).

Specific suggested changes below:

Section 5.2:

"5.2  Key Material vs. Session Key

   As described in section 1.6, each mobile IP security association that
  is generated by the AAAH will be propagated to the mobility agents
   and the mobile node in two different ways. All security associations
   destined for the home and foreign agents are sent as session keys,
   protected by IPSec or TLS as defined in the [DIAMBASE]. If strong
   authentication and confidentiality of the session keys is required
   due to involvement of intermediate Diameter agents, it is recommended
   that the CMS security application [CMS] be used.

   Since the security associations for the mobile node are propagated
   through the mobile IPv4 protocol, the security associations are
   always sent in the form of key material, which the AAAH computes by
   generating a random [RANDOM] value of at least 64 bits. The mobile
   node will then use the key material to derive the session key to be
   used for the security associations.

   The following is an example of a session creation procedure, which
   the mobile node has to comply with, using HMAC-MD5 as the hashing
   algorithm to derive the key (of course the same session creation
   procedure must also be used by the AAAH for the opposite key sent to
   the home agent and foreign agent). Additional algorithms are
   supported, and listed in [MIPKEYS], where also the HMAC-SHA1
   algorithm is recommended to be used.

   key = HMAC-MD5(AAA-key,{Key Material | node-address})

      Where:

         - AAA-Key is the long term secret shared between the mobile
           node and the AAAH.
         - Key material is a random [RANDOM] value of at least 64 bits.
         - node-address is the mobile node's identity. This is the
           contents of the MIP-Mobile-Node-Address AVP, unless the value
           of the AVP is all zero or ones, in which case of value of the
           User-Name AVP is used instead."

Some references to CMS need to be cleaned up, and
a 64-bit nonce is probably not enough. Reword to:

"As described in section 1.6, session keys and nonces are generated
by the AAAH and are transmitted to the home agent, foreign agent
and mobile node. Security associations destined for the home and
foreign agents are established via transmission of session keys and SPIs,
protected by transmission-level security as defined in [DIAMBASE].
Where it is necessary to protect the nonces, session keys and SPIs from
untrusted Diameter agents, end-to-end security mechanisms are required,
such as the CMS application [CMS], a work in progress.

The mobile node security associations are established via
nonces transmitted to the mobile node via Mobile
IPv4. To provide the nonces, the AAAH generates
a random [RANDOM] value of at least 128 bits. The mobile
node then uses the nonce to derive the MN-HA and
MN-FA session keys.

The session key creation procedure is described below in more
detail. HMAC-MD5 is used as the hashing algorithm to enable
session keys to be derived from the long term shared secret and the nonce.
The same procedure is used by the AAAH for creation of the session keys
sent to the home and foreign agent. Additional supported algorithms are
listed in [MIPKEYS], where the HMAC-SHA1 algorithm is recommended. (so why
is HMAC-MD5 used in the examples?)

key = HMAC-MD5(AAA-key,{Nonce | MN-address | FA-address})

Where:

- AAA-Key is the pre-shared key between the mobile
  node and the AAAH.
- Nonce is a random [RANDOM] value of at least 128 bits.
- FA-address is the address of the foreign agent.
- MN-address is the mobile node's identity. This is the
  contents of the MIP-Mobile-Node-Address AVP, unless the value
  of the AVP is all zero or ones, in which case of value of the
  User-Name AVP is used instead."

Section 10, security considerations:

"   This specification describes the Diameter Application necessary to
   authenticate and authorize a Mobile IP mobile node. The
   authentication algorithm used is dependent upon the transforms
   available by the Mobile IP protocol, and [MIPCHAL]. This
   specification also defines a method by which the home Diameter server
   can create and distribute session keys to be used to authenticate
   Mobile IP registration messages [MOBILEIP]. The key distribution is
   asymmetric due to the fact the keys to the mobile node have to be
   propagated via the mobile IP protocol [AAAKEY, MOBILEIP], while the
   mobility agent keys are propagated via the Diameter protocol. This
   means that the keys destined to the mobility agents are always
   protected by IPSec or TLS as defined in [DIAMBASE], when deployed
   without any Diameter agents, or protected using the methods defined
   in [CMS], when deployed in an environment that includes Diameter
   agents. The keys destined for the mobile node are always sent as key
   material, which is used to derive the actual keys, which means that
   it does not expose any data that could be used in an attack aimed at
   recovering the long term key shared between the mobile node and the
   home Diameter server.

   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. Therefore, must the long-term
   shared secret between the mobile node and the home Diameter server
   also be periodically refreshed, by utilizing some out-of-band
   mechanism, since this shared secret cannot be refreshed by any in-
   band mechanism.

   It should also be noted that it is not recommended to set the MIP-
   Session-Key AVP value equal to zero, since keeping session keys for a
   long time (no refresh) increases the vulnerability of the system."

Clarification of vulnerabilities and keying terminology needed. Reword as
follows:

"This specification describes a Mobile IPv4 Diameter Application for
authenticating and authorizing a Mobile IPv4 mobile node. The
authentication algorithm used is dependent upon the transforms
used within the Mobile IP protocol, and [MIPCHAL]. This
specification also defines a method by which the home Diameter server
can create and distribute session keys and nonces for use in
authenticating and integrity-protecting Mobile IP registration messages
[MOBILEIP]. The key distribution is asymmetric since communication with
the mobile node occurs via the mobile IP protocol [AAAKEY, MOBILEIP],
while communication to the Home Agent and Foreign Agent occurs via the
Diameter
protocol. As required by [DIAMBASE], transmission-level security (IPsec or
TLS) MUST
be used between Diameter nodes. Where untrusted Diameter agents are
present, end-to-end security MUST be used, via mechanisms such as the CMS
application [CMS], a work in progress.

Nonces are sent to the mobile node, which are used to generate
the session keys via the HMAC-MD5 one-way function. If the nonces
are compromised, then the pre-shared key between the
mobile node and the home Diameter server would be vulnerable to
an offline dictionary attack. To prevent this, the pre-shared
key between the mobile node and the home Diameter server SHOULD
be a randomly chosen quantity of at least 96 bits.

Since the session key is determined by the long-term secret and
the nonce, the nonce SHOULD be temporally and globally unique;
if the nonce were to repeat, then so would the session key.
To prevent this, a nonce of at least 128 bits is REQUIRED.
The long-term secret between the MN and HA MUST be
periodically refreshed, to guard against recovery of the long-term
secret due to nonce reuse or other factors. This is accomplished
using out-of-band mechanisms, which are not specified in this document.

It should also be noted that it is not recommended to set the MIP-
Session-Key AVP value equal to zero, since keeping session keys for a
long time (no refresh) increases the level of vulnerability."

So I've been thinking about how the protocol currently does FBU and I think
there is a semantic mismatch between how FBU is defined in the base spec and how
BU is being used in the fast handover protocol, particularly with respect to the
way RA and RS are typically used in standard movement detection and maintaining
the same semantic for PrxyRA and SolPrxyRA.

The semantic for RA and RS is that a node uses RS and RA to find out what subnet
it is on, after which it does DAD or DHCP configuration to get its address. So,
essentially, receiving the RA initializes the node in the process of
establishing a care of address on the subnet.

Similarly, a BU in the base MIP spec is only sent when the MN is in a
topologically correct location to utilize the care of address. So the care of
address is valid, the host is on the link, and the router can route traffic to
the host.

The semantics of FBU don't really match the semantics of BU in the base spec.
The MN sends FBU immediately after getting the Proxy RA. But at that point, it
may not even be in the correct topological location to receive packets at the
new CoA. It may still be on the old link, or it may have moved to the new link.
If it's moved to the new link, it may not have even sent the HA BU yet, nor the
CN BUs, so it really has not completed configuring the new care of address.

I think it might make some sense to try to match the base semantic for PrxyRA,
SolPrxyRA, and FBU more closely, with a few modifications to match the
difference that the anticipated care of address configuration is occuring on a
different link. The principles behind the modifications are these:

- Optimization of CoA configuration on the new subnet is performed by the new
router and old router as part of the anticpated care of address change. This is
different from the standard neighbor discovery sequence.

- The tunnel is there to help fix up the routing failure while the MN is
establishing the new care of address, and is maintained until the MN completes
care of address configuration with HA and CNs.

Here's my suggestion about how this might work.

- All ARs that support fast handover lock down their neighbor cache entries,
making a neighbor table, so that the neighbor table always reflects the current
set of MNs on the link and also some that might currently be undergoing handover
(as below). This is similar to MIPv4, where the ARP cache entries are locked
down in the FA as long as a MN is on the visitor list.

- After the MN receives a PrxyRA, it is considered, for routing purposes, to be
on the new subnet if the handover was confirmed (it might be denied with low
probability). Thus, as a default, all traffic for the MN should be directed to
the new subnet. Optimizations are possible and discussed below.

- The old AR, via the HI, notifies the new AR that the MN is coming, with the
old CoA, proposed new CoA, and link layer identifier. The new AR confirms
whether the proposed new CoA is not used, makes a neighbor table entry
indicating such and puts it into the "undergoing handover" state. If the CoA is
not acceptable (low probability of occuring), the AR sents error code in the
HaCK and sends a usable proposed CoA back (it could also do this for stateful
addrconfig), which is conveyed by the PrxyRA to the MN. The old AR also inserts
a source route for the old CoA in order to handle tunneled packets.

- As a default, when the old AR receives the HaCK, it starts tunneling packets
to the new AR under the old CoA. Note that the MN may still physically be on the
old link at this point, but logically, the PrxyRtAdv completes the anticipated
care of address change. The new AR may buffer tunneled packets until the MN
shows up (but probably shouldn't for real time traffic).

- The old AR may use link layer hints, like for example a secure link down
trigger, to optimize tunnel initiation. This could reduce the number of lost or
buffered packets.

- When the MN shows up on the new link, it sends the BU to HA, RR and BU to CNs,
then, when this is all complete and there is no need for the tunnel, it sends a
BU to the old AR indicating that it can receive any further packets at the new
CoA. At that point, the tunnel to new AR is brought down, but the old AR can
forward any laggard packets to the new CoA for some grace period. After the
grace period concludes, the old AR removes the source route for the old CoA.

- The two ARs maintain the tunnel until the MN has signaled, via the BU to the
old AR, that it no longer needs it. The MN SHOULD change its care of address as
soon as possible, but exceptions are allowed, subject to local network operator
policy.

- The FNA could be used to cause the new AR to switch the neighbor table entry
to "confirmed". Alternatively, this could be done by a secure link up trigger,
or when the tunnel is brought down. Probably, the FNA isn't needed.

- At any time, the new AR can send a RA to the MN indicating that it should
start configuring its care of address _now_. This is controlled by the network
policy. Some network operators may not want to support tunnel lifetimes beyond a
certain point. After the RA is sent, the new AR can keep the tunnel up for a
grace period, but then it will shut it down.

I think this gives a cleaner semantic cut between the anticipated care of
address configuration and the optimizations, and a better match between the
termination of the routing failure fixup and the base Mobile IPv6 spec BU
semantic.

It seems like we are omitting the DAD cost here. Regular Mobile IP requires
DAD on the new link, and that can cost even more than the L2 handover
itself.
Unless IP address configuration is taken care of somehow, or until if and
when
optimized DAD solutions are developed, regular Mobile IP handover over
802.11 is a concern.

The MIP signaling will be on the same ship with the rest of the traffic,
including
the real-time traffic we are trying to save. So, any QoS solution will help
both the signaling and data, and lack of it will hurt both.

The nice thing about designing a protocol with
explicit network-layer signaling is that, we can attempt
to secure it independent of where it runs.

This looks like a good idea. What does fast really mean ?=20
Does it mean that it is faster than base spec ?  How does one really
decide that FMIPv6 is fast ? e.g. do some simulation on specific
link layer and show it is fast ? And how do you know that it is fast
for all other link layers ? Perhaps it might be possible to
address some basic issues like DAD etc. in base spec and do link
specific things in the link specific draft.

Hello Basavraj,
Sorry for late reply. Lately I have been too busy 
to follow Fast handoff discussion. Please
find my inline replies to your comments.
Regards,
Ajoy

Subject: RE: [mobile-ip] Fastv6: Issue 2: Deferring new CoA
configuration


Ajoy,

Defering the CoA configuration may result in extended tunnels
and host routes at the leaf nodes. Hence its a good reason to
configure the CoA expeditiously. And this can be accomplished
if you have advanced knowledge of handoffs (via L2 triggers).

AJOY-> But if we do not provide an option to defer care of address 
configuration, we end up in a situation where CoA must be performed 
in given time limit. This looks like imposing hard real time 
constraint on the best effort IP. BTW, I think this goes against the 
design principle of IP.  Please correct me if I misunderstood anything. 
On the other hand, due to advancements in the speed and processing
power of routing hardware, probably adding some 
extra host routes at the access routers may not be a big issue.
Anyhow, I would like to have an expert opinion about my assertions.

Limiting number of signaling messages is important but is the
overhead of managing extended tunnels and host routes at edge
routers greater than a few additional messages? Some sort of 
middle ground is required here. 

AJOY-> More than reducing the signaling messages, my priority is
to eliminate the signaling messages from the critical path of 
handoff. This can done by letting MN to decide the timing 
of care of address assignment upon the completion of handoff. 

I think the applicability of the fast-handoff immediately may
well be 802.11 networks in which case we really should not be
too worried about number of messages. 

AJOY-> I would not make such an assumption. Rather I would like to 
leave this upon the discretion of wireless vendors.

The implementation and
deployment experience will definitely help guide any changes
and enhancements to the protocol that would make it more 
applicable for the wide-area cellular networks. 

AJOY-> I agree. I am sure we will find more issues 
and further scopes for improvements when these
protocols get deployed in the field. But anyhow, 
we should not ignore the well known facts of the 
wide area access network such as low bandwidth
and high RTT. This is not going to change because 
of the deployment of fast handoff. 

Trying to get the protocol perfect and suitable for all kinds of networks 
that may exist in the future is difficult. 

The idea of extending
the baseline FMIPv6 draft for specific L2s in separate drafts
will be able to accommodate the specific needs.

AJOY-> Yes, it can. But won't this beat the purpose of 
standardization. But I do agree some non-standard
optimization must be performed to accommodate the various
air interface technologies.

Thanks. Posting the text in the alias perhaps would be nice.

Jari opened iseeue #100 for this set of comments. We discussed :

Rename  137 as :

137     Invalid or missing authenticator

So, it will be perfectly applied to CN case and HA case. Except we discussed
that if HA receives a BU without "any security association" then it should
drop the packet.

Draft 17 was mandating that HAO MUST NOT be there when sending BU to
CN. So this error message may be directly applicable. Now we require
HAO with binding updates for CN and HA. So, when a CN and HA receive
a BU, HAO must be there before or after binding happens (first BU and then 
refresh)

But Jari made a suggestion to rename this error code to
" Home Address destination option used without sufficient validation",
which I think makes sense to have specified.

As a CN funtion, there is no use of processing RTHDR_TYPE2 routing
header in the receive side. I am not sure why would mobile router
forward a packet with RTHDR TYPE 2 to a CN which is acting as CN only.

But, folks can argue, that this may be too implementation specific
deetails. I'd like to see a clarification for CN only systems, that
it either ignore RTHDR TYpe 2 ext header upon receiving or it should
drop the packet as it can't process the extension otherwise.

Issue #100. It's I think the remaining text from draft 17, this needs
to change with the new rule that HAO will always accompany a binding
update.

I am not sure I quite follow. Looking at the index, it was not clear that
Home Agent also processes BUs-- so I requested to clarify or rename the
section name.


Thanks very much for taking care of the changes.

Take a look and then blast away.

I have enough faith in the approach to believe it is at least possible, but
them I might be in a deluded majority of one :-)

And you'd think this would be implemented by the vast majority of routers 
so that the option would actually be usable in reality?

(I didn't read the draft, at least yet.)

As a general rule, it is not a good idea to do service discovery by having
the
service advertise (routers being the exception because the advertisements
only
happen on a single link). The Novell discovery protocol often consumed 10%
of
the local network bandwidth because it had the services multicasting
periodic
advertisements.

A better idea is to have the host multicast to an administratively scoped
(RFC
2365, BCP23) multicast address when it wants to find the MAP. The network
operator controls the scopes, so different MAPs can appear in different
pieces
of the network topology.

Alternatively, we could use an anycast address, as is done with the Home
Agent.

One issue is whether there are particular attributes characterizing a MAP
other
than its location in the topology that might be of interest to a MN. The
location in the topology is controlled by the administratively scoped
multicast.
If so, then we may want to look at a more general service discovery
protocol,
like SLP. Otherwise, we may need to define a protocol to allow the MN to
sort
through the attributes. If not, then we can just use a multicast or anycast
address.

The other issue is how a host knows when it has moved outside the scope of a
MAP. Perhaps the returned MAP adverisement contains information (like
subnets
covered) which the host can use to determine when it has to look for a new
MAP.
This avoids the problem of the host having to constantly probe, or the MAP
to
constantly multicast.

These two requirements were wrong. As direct tunnel mode is used, then
the requirements should have said:

   - If IPsec is used to protect return routability signaling or
     payload packets tunneled via the home agent, IPsec tunnel mode
     encapsulation MUST be used.

Ok.

The format is a bit misleading. What usually happens in an IPsec implementation
is that the SPD entries define the SA parameters (or at least their patterns),
even if IKE is used. What I wanted to present here was that the MN side will,
if it needs an SA to protect BUs, establish an IKE connection using phase 1
identity "user1" and try to negotiate the SA parameters for the home address.
On the home agent side we check the identity == "user1" before we allow
this specific home address in an SA.

Hmm... maybe I should have made it clearer that "home address" is a specific
home address home_address_1 rather than the general concept of a home
address.

I'll try to think something to make the format of these dynamic SPD
entries clearer. (Suggestions are welcome!)

Oops, old text. No problems any more.

Yes.

I guess what I am saying is that it doesn't, 

=> ok so we agree on this.

but absent any specific
security
measures on the local link, the same problem applies to any node on the
local
link, regardless of whether it has made a handover or not.

=> Not really, if you have ingree filtering
this can't happen. Of course one can spoof 
other nodes' IP addresses, but that's not 
something ingress filtering was designed to avoid.

So here's how I see this working:

1) Old AR and new AR have a security association.

2) Old AR and new AR exchange HI/HaCK with old CoA and L2 id of MN about
to
undergo handover. New AR agrees to handle the tunnel.

3) New AR inserts a source route, and simultaneously modifies its
ingress filter
so that packets from old CoA originating on the air interface side will
get
routed into the tunnel interface.

4) MN shows up on new link, starts sending all packets with old CoA to
new AR.

5) New AR checks against source routes, old CoA matches, link layer
address
matches, routes down the tunnel.

Let's consider some attacks:

1) Attacker on the air interface side starts sending packets with the
old CoA
and the link layer address (both need to be spoofed in order to pass the
ingress
filter). The router will route down the tunnel.

2) Attacker on the air interface side starts sending packets with a
vaild CoA on
the subnet and a valid link layer address of another node on the subnet.
The
router routes the packet out.

So I guess I don't see much difference. Or did you have a different
threat in
mind?

=> Threat 1 is what I had in mind. Like I said there
is a difference. The difference is: ingress filtering
_stops_ threat 1). We're violating that. 


As Section 1 of RFC 2267 says:

   While the filtering method discussed in this document does
   absolutely nothing to protect against flooding attacks which
   originate from valid prefixes (IP addresses), it will prohibit an
   attacker within the originating network from launching an attack of
   this nature using forged source addresses that do not conform to
   ingress filtering rules.

=> That's exactly what I've been saying.

The source route makes the old CoA a valid (/128) prefix on the subnet,
because
it is established by a secure transaction between the routers.

=> The point is, the secure transaction between
routers is irrelevant to this discussion. What
you're saying above can be reworded to say:
"The source route makes the old CoA a valid (/128) prefix on the 
subnet, hence allowing for new attacks that ingress filtering
is meant to stop".

Hi James,

There is some difference between advertising a routing
routing service with IPv6 multicast, and having broacast
storms with IPX networks which used broadcast
advertisements to propagate all manner of information
until it hit a filter.

Your suggestion about using a limited scoped system
where advertisements are controlled at the boundary of their
usefulness is well taken, but the RFC you pointed to
2365 is an IPv4 backport of the site-scoping available in
IPv6!

Maybe limiting the multicasting based on hop-count isn't
optimal, but site-local or the admin scope from
IPv6 Scoped Address Architecture draft may be appropriate for
either periodic advertisement or probing based solutions.

I get shy of probing solutions which aren't based on multicast
because they tie the LMM scheme to a node which understands
the request on the unicast path of the packet travelling through
the network (something which it seems you want to avoid,
by using unmodified routers).  Using SLP or another mutlicast
based probing mechanism would have to be used with caution,
since in most locations, there will be thousands of probing
mobile nodes per MAP.

The idea of indicating coverage which you have is good if it
can be done efficiently.  Maybe a coverage field which
indicates the prefix over which the MAP may be used.
I wouldn't use a probing system without this sort of
information available, because of the load probing could have
on the network.

This doesn't necessarily get us to a point where we can choose
the best MAP though, if we rely on probes only when we enter
a domain not covered by the previous MAP, we won't be able to
adjust to a better MAP when we're in an access network where
MAP coverage overlaps.

Periodic advertisements can be used with some effect in these
situations, but it needn't be IPXv6...

As it stands, I'm happy using MAP advertisements in the
Router Advert.  It stops a second link acquisition to send the 
information (useful in 802.11b), and may be sent unicast, in
response to a link-local only probe.  I'd like
HMIPv6 to be useful and attractive to deploy though, too,
so I can understand the points yourself and Alan are making.

We can look at definition of an SLP Service Type,
but I'd suggest it can be done as an adjunct to the
Basic function in another document.  It would be used
in situations where a MN supports HMIPv6 and isn't
receiving MAP advertisements from the router (which is known
when site/global addresses are formed).

I am not sure i understand this issue correctly. The router must anyway
advertise its
subnet for the MN to configure its LCoA...it may as well use the RA to
advertise the MAPs that are
serving this subnet...i think it makes sense to use the same mechanism to
advertise the
network subnet and the MAPs...
am i missing something?

Cheers,
Claude.

This is regarding, deletion of a Correspondent node Binding,
while away from Home. I need clarifications on this particular
scenario.

1. A mobile node MAY choose to keep its location private and
send a Binding Update to such a correspondent node to instruct
it, to delete any existing binding for the mobile node from its
Binding Cache, as described in Section 6.1.7.

   In section 6.1.7, it is mentioned that, the deletion of a
binding can be indicated by setting the Lifetime field to 0 or
by setting the care-of address equal to the home address.

Does it mean, for deletion (to keep its location private),
a mobile node can specify one of them?

If so, then why in Binding Refresh Request case, it is mentioned
that the mobile node SHOULD return a Binding Update to the sender,
in which the Lifetime field is set to zero and the care-of address
(using a Alternate Care-Of Address option) is set to the
mobile node's home address.

How this case of replying to BRR for deletion, is different
from the previous one?

In both the cases, it is MN which decides not to give Binding.
Then, why in replying to BRR we have to specify both.
How, it is different in this case?

2. For de-registration with a CN (while MN away from home) using
an alternate care-of address option (ACoA = Home address), should
MN need to send a Coti message as part of RR procedure?

If no, then should it use Home cookie as both Care-of Cookie
& Home cookie in calculation of Session key?

If so, then any node who has the home cookie can delete the
MN's Binding without the knowledge of the MN.
Ofcourse, I accept that the path between MN to HA is secure,
and HA to CN is not under MobileIPv6 scope.
So, are we assuming de-registration should be secure. Is this,
the intended idea or my assumptions are wrong?.

Thanks in advance
Srinivasan.D

I agree that on some implementations several MAC calls are needed anyway.
However, I know personally several implementations that don't use multiple
buffers and these implementations could potentially benefit from this.

So there is a small benefit. The question is, is there a disadvantage?
In order to adopt the new approach, we need two things:

   (1) Change the alignment requirement for BAD from 4n+2 to 8n+2.
   (2) Add a requirement that implementations must put BAD last and not
       add any padding (not that it would ever be needed either, given
       the padding requirement).

The first item doesn't appear to cause any new implementation work
as alignment needs to be handled anyway. (I'm not quite sure how
typical message composition would change, is there a change to the
number of bytes consumed? Probably not in most cases, at least not
if the implementation put the BAD option as the last one already.)

The second item seems like a fairly simple thing also. But the MN
needs to compose the message in the right order, and the CN will
have to check it.

In conclusion I don't see any major increase in implementation
work. Since there is some benefit for some implementations, shouldn't
we do as Henrik suggested? Does the correct ordering cause a
big problem for someone's implementation?

Hello,
I need more clarification for MH checksum.

MH checksum calculation is explained in section 6.1.1.

         The pseudo-header contains IPv6 header fields, as specified
         in Section 8.1 of [11].  The Next Header value used in the
         pseudo-header is TBD. The addresses used in the pseudo-header
         are the addresses that appear in the Source and Destination
         Address fields in the IPv6 packet carrying the Mobility Header.
         For computing the checksum, the checksum field is set to zero.

Which address should MN use as the IP source address during MH cheksum
calculation, home address or care-of address?

regards,
ryuji

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		: Using IPsec to Protect Mobile IPv6 Signaling between
                          Mobile Nodes and Home Agents
	Author(s)	: J. Arkko, V. Devarapalli, F. Dupont
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mobileip-mipv6-ha-ipsec-00.txt
	Pages		: 27
	Date		: 2002-9-20
	
Mobile IPv6 uses IPsec to protect signaling between the home
agent and the mobile node. Mobile IPv6 base document defines the
main requirements these nodes must follow. This draft discusses
these requirements in more depth, illustrates the used packet
formats, describes suitable configuration procedures, and shows
how implementations can process the packets in the right order.

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

As a part of some previously reported issues, the text has changed.
The new text is shown below. Does it explain the matter for you?

Jari
----

	16-bit unsigned integer. This field contains the checksum of
	the Mobility Header. The checksum is calculated from the octet
	string consisting of a "pseudo-header" followed by the entire
	Mobility Header starting with the Payload Proto field. The
	checksum is the 16-bit one's complement of the one's
	complement sum of this string.

	The pseudo-header contains IPv6 header fields, as specified in
	Section 8.1 of [ref]. The Next Header value used in the
	pseudo-header is TBD. The addresses used in the pseudo-header
	are the addresses that appear in the Source and Destination
	Address fields in the IPv6 packet carrying the Mobility
	Header.  The Mobility Header is considered as the upper layer
	protocol for the purposes of calculating the
	pseudo-header. The Upper-Layer Packet Length field in the
	pseudo-header MUST be set to the value of the Header Len field
	from the Mobility Header, multiplied by eight.  For computing
	the checksum, the checksum field is set to zero.

	Note that the procedures described in Section 11.2.1 apply
	even for the Mobility Header. If a Mobility Header message has
	a Home Address destination option, then the checksum
	calculation uses the home address in this option as the value of
	the IPv6 Source Address field.

Hello.

  I don't know if this is an off-topic here, if so I apologize for the =
inconvenience.

  I read the MIPv6 draft and all the other IPv6 Specifications.
=20
  I understand RFC2460 alignment requirements for options (I mean  the =
xn+y rule). What I cannot get is how do you derive that numbers for each =
option.

  Could you give me some advice to learn that?

Thanks!

They aren't really different. 9.4.1 also contains the same
explanation as appears in 6.1.7. My suggestion is that we
change the BRR section as follows:

   Instead, if the mobile node chose to delete its binding from the
   sender of the Binding Refresh Request, the mobile node SHOULD return a
   Binding Update to the sender as follows. The Lifetime field is
   zero. The care-of address (using the Alternate Care-Of Address option)
   is the mobile node's home address.

=>

   Instead, if the mobile node chose to delete its binding from the
   sender of the Binding Refresh Request, the mobile node SHOULD return a
   Binding Update to the sender with the Lifetime specified as zero or
   specify a Care-of Address that matches the home address for the binding.

Let's make this issue #116.

(I'm not sure why the protocol originally allowed two ways to delete
bindings; does someone remember? We could require lifetimes to be non-zero
if a real care-of address is specified...)

The current design is that home and care-of cookies are really
similar, just different addresses are used to create them (but #98
questions this a bit).

The current scheme allows you to use a home cookie twice when
you de-register, as you observed. I don't believe this is a
security threat, as anyone who is on the HA - CN could in
any case cause any kind of trouble, including dropping all
packets, modifying all packets, etc.

I'll mark this as issue #117 just in case we need to explain
the use-the-home-cookie-twice approach in the document. Currently
it isn't explained, as far as I remember.

The numbers for each option depend on the fields inside the option.
RFC 2460 appendix B also describes some general formatting requirements.
Basically, n-octet fields are to be aligned on n-octet boundary up and
until n=8. For instance, a 4-octet field is aligned on a 4-octet boundary.

Now, if an option starts with a 4-octet field we would put 4n as an
alignment requirement. If the option has three bytes that precede a
4-byte field, then we would put 4n+1 so that when that one byte is
followed by the three first ones in the option, we arrive at a 4-byte
boundary in time for our 4-byte field.

Hi Everyone,
   My name is Khuram Mir.And i am a student of BS in computer science in
University of Computer and Emerging Sciences.Currently i am doing some
research work in the field of Mobie IP.
So i would like to have some suggestions from you people.I have studied some
RFC's and Tutorial's of authors like C.Perkins, Montenagro etc.
So what i would like to ask you people here is what is the latest research
work going on and what are the current problems on which i can work.
Hope to have a positive response from you people as i have just started
working in this field.And thanks for speniding your time in reading my mail.

Hope i will become a guru in this field like you people one day:)

Best Regards
Khuram Mir

Hi,

I'm trying to close the issue 81 which Vijay raised a long time ago.
This issue (http://www.piuha.net/~jarkko/publications/mipv6/issues/issue81.txt)
reopens a part of what we decided back in issue 51
(http://www.piuha.net/~jarkko/publications/mipv6/issues/issue51.txt).
Namely, back then we said that mobile cookies should be at least 32
bits but that due to alignment reasons we might as well make them
64 bits without wasting any more bandwidth.

Vijay made the point that even if we are not wasting any bandwidth
*now*, we might be doing that in the future. If there are some new mobility
options that could fit to the packet if the cookies are 32 bits, but
with 64 bits an additional 8 bytes is allocated for the option.

Analysing the impacts of the proposed change we can note the following:

+ 32 bit cookies are likely sufficient for security purposes, for now;
   see issue 51 for more information
- All other cookies are 64 bits, so it would look nice if the mobile
   cookies were 64 bits too
+ If cookies are 32 bits then the HOTI/HOT, COTI/COT messages can
   fit an extra 1-4 byte option without a size increase. In practise
   we can send a mobility option with a 16 bit value, when the tag
   and length fields are considered.
- The mobile cookies are not used in the BUs and BAs, so the only
   effects are in the HOTI/HOT, COTI/COT messages.
- It is perhaps less likely that new useful options are invented
   for HOTI/HOT, COTI/COT than the BUs and BAs. None are currently
   defined.
- Given that the home and care-of cookies still need to be 64 bits,
   they should be aligned on an 8-byte boundary. This seems to imply
   that HOT/COT must have the home/care-of cookie first, followed
   by the mobile cookie. However, in HOTI/COTI the mobile cookie
   is alone. This complicates the implementation technique where
   a home/care-of cookie is simply added to the HOTI/HOTI and the
   message type is changed, since the mobile cookie field would have
   to move.

RECOMMENDATION

In conclusion this doesn't matter much either way. However, I'd
like to recommend that we keep the format as is, simply to keep
all cookies similar, and to make the construction of the response
easier from the request.

Comments?

Hi Claude,

We would like to be able to use HMIP with a standard IPv6 router. Standard IPv6
routers don't include the possibility of MAP advertisements. So, providing the
MN with another way to discover the MAP would be useful.

            jak

Binding cache entry? Which RFC contains text saying that an IPv6 router supports
a binding cache as part of its routing function? As far as I know, RFC 2461
specifies a neighbor table, but if the router does support a binding cache, it
is strictly part of its function as an IPv6 node that supports route
optimization of packets addressed to its IPv6 address *as an IPv6 host*, and not
as part of its function as a router. But perhaps I am missing something.

It did, but it may not choose to use it right away for a variety of reasons. The
timing of when to change CoA is left up to the MN.

Jim,
  The problem in public cellular network links vis-a-vis Mobile IP is 
that IP starts at GGSN/PDSN which is a core network node and everything 
below SGSN, PCF, UTRAN is the link layer. As such the cell size for MIP 
becomes large and thus the layer 3  handoffs are not so frequent. There 
are other things such as GTP, let's not talk about them.
  I agree that we should not develop drafts for each wireless link. What 
is really needed is the definition of an abstract wireless link layer 
interactions and making FMIPv6 protocol to work on it.
  I think that your idea of L2 triggers (was it initiated by you?) is a 
good starting point, however I find the term L2 trigger to be misnomer 
for this, maybe we should call it the wireless link layer indications. 
Maybe these indications must be revisited and redefined in order to use 
them effectively together with a handover protocol. The protocol could 
be defined such a way that the wireless link layer indications become 
the API for FMIPv6.
  The above could be a way out of FMIPv6 being defined for a single link.
My 2 euro cents.
Regards,

To me, what this argues for is standardizing drafts that specify how to do fast
handover on specific link layers. Maybe there is too much diversity in how
handover is done to write an optimization draft for a generic fast handover
protocol.

Alternatively, perhaps we could section the fast handover draft into techniques
(anticipated care of address change, tunnel-based routing fixup) that could be
applied to specific link layers with their own particular signaling. This is
somewhat how we did the FMIPv4 draft.

Behcet,

Unfortuantely, the L2 triggers work has not gotten a lot of traction in the
IETF. Outside of the mobile wireless arena, people are proposing using SNMP for
it, which completely misses the point. Others have complained that it is really
a specification for what goes on inside a box and has nothing to do with
observing protocol on the wire. There is also a question about what usefulness
it would have ultimately, since link layer designers generally do their own
thing. So unless there is some interest on the part of groups dealing with
mobile and wireless to take on the work, it seems likely that it will not be
continued.

In the context of Mobile IP, a node (host/router) intercepting IP packets on
behalf of another host and tunneling them to another IP address is basically
performing home agent functionality. And the required information for this
operation is stored in binding cache. Whether it is forwarding from previous
care-of address, or its specific instance FMIPv6, the old access router is
performing home agent functionality.

My idea was an attempt to get out of the situation in which FMIPv6 is

Unfortuantely, the L2 triggers work has not gotten a lot of traction in the
IETF. Outside of the mobile wireless arena, people are proposing using SNMP for
it, which completely misses the point. Others have complained that it is really
a specification for what goes on inside a box and has nothing to do with
observing protocol on the wire. There is also a question about what usefulness
it would have ultimately, since link layer designers generally do their own
thing. So unless there is some interest on the part of groups dealing with
mobile and wireless to take on the work, it seems likely that it will not be
continued.

Well, we put the L2 triggers material into the FMIPv4 draft, but I don't think
there is any interest in doing that with FMIPv6. There is some interest in
keeping L2 issues separate. Perhaps that's not possible, though.

Jim, I think this was because people were not happy with the so-called 
L2 triggers. Maybe we should redefine them and make them into 
indications like signal strength, beacon, etc. that all wireless link 
layers provide.

From Section 10 of the MIPv6 spec, here is a very abbreviated, high level
outline of  the requirements on Home Agents:

    1) Maintain primary care of address for client mobile nodes by processing
binding updates for changing the primary care of address.

    2) Intercept and forward packets addressed to the mobile node's home address
to its care of address.

    3) Tunnel packets addressed from the home address to the care of address.

    4) Reverse tunnel packets with the source address being the home address to
the correspondent node.

    5) Protect return routability packets through an IPsec security association.

    6) Support the dynamic home agent discovery protocol through various means.

    7) Support extensions to nework renumbering to allow MNs to be renumbered
while away from home.

There are over 16 pages of detailed specification describing what a Home Agent
must do. Are you saying that all IPv6 access routers must support these detailed
specifications in order to process a single message that terminates the tunnel?

In my view, there is no real overlap between what an access router does and what
a home agent does, except that they are both routers. The functionality of
inserting host routes and bidirectionally tunneling packets may seem common, but
the old access router doesn't even route the tunneled packets to the MN's care
of address, it routes them to the new access router. So the function being
performed is really more like what a router in the core of the network would
perform. The router is just fixing up a failure in the routing, just as a router
in the core would roll over to using an alternate route (without any end host
involvement) if another router on the path failed.

Perhaps the confusion comes from using a Binding Update in order to change
routing associated with a router (as opposed to changing end-to-end routing
using a host, or to change Home Agent routing). If so, then perhaps we need to
look into another message to terminate the tunnel, or expand the Binding Update
semantics to include this case.

=> Overlaps are needed for 2 reasons:
1. Redundancy: this would involve MAPs covering the same area
2. Early detection of movement: The MN would see that a new MAP
   appeared at the bordering router and register early with it. 

The draft already mentions this but we can add more text.

If someone wants to use a Cisco 3600 as their access router, they should be able
to, even though it doesn't support HMIP advertisement. And they can do it today.

I'm not tied to an SLP solution, but I would like a solution that doesn't
consume much bandwidth. The issue with SLP is whether there are other attributes
besides the location in the network that would make a MAP attractive for a MN.
If there are, then using something like SLP with attributes in the queries would
be useful. Off the top of my head, I can't think of any other attribute that
would be necessary, except what edge subnets the MAP supports.

Part of the problem with multicasting is that, as I mentioned, unlike router
adverts, a MAP advert need not be on a single link. One could argue that there
will not be enough MAPs to really impact performance, but if everyone in the
IETF who does a new service argues that way, pretty soon the advertisements add
up to real bandwidth.

I agree that having a separate document is the best solution. The only thing I
think we need in the base document is a statement saying that router adverts
SHOULD be used, but other discovery solutions MAY be, or something like that.

The ingress filter won't stop someone spoofing a /64 on the subnet. It also
won't stop someone from spoofing a /128.

So what I am saying is that ingress filtering is irrelevent to this discussion.
An attacker can spoof a valid prefix on the subnet regardless of whether it is a
/64 or a /128. Once the /128 has been securely set up, it is like any other
address on the link. There is currently no way for a router to determine whether
a node claiming to have the right to use a particular address does, in fact,
have that right. CGA and some of the other techniques we are talking about in
the SEND discussion may, in fact, provide this capability. If so, then the
ability of a node to spoof any address on the link will be removed because the
router can check whether it has the right to claim the address

What exactly am I missing here?

Suppose that the prefix on the link is X. Now suppose the attacker uses an
address X:Y, where Y is some other node's interface identifier. The ingress
filter can't stop that. It will only stop an attacker using a prefix A, where A
!= X.

I think we are talking about two different kinds of spoofing. What I mean is
that the attacker can spoof any address with a valid prefix on the link,
regardless if the prefix is a /128 or a /64. I don't mean that it can spoof a
different prefix, which the router is not routing.

=> That's right and that is not /64 spoofing, that is
a /128 spoofing. /64 spoofing would be when the attacker
uses an address A:anything.

=> And I think we agree on that. The FMIP draft 
allows the spoofing of a /64 though. This is 
my concern.

paradigm based on the collaborative effort of large number of sensors
deployed close to or inside the phenomenon to be observed, and have the
potential of providing diverse services to numerous applications. The
realization of WSNs require intensive technical research efforts
especially in power aware scalable wireless ad hoc communications
protocols due to their unusual application requirements and unique
constraints such as
- WSNs are generally composed of large number of nodes that have limited
  computational and storage capacity.
- In many applications, sensor nodes are expected to be randomly scattered
  in unreachable regions.
- The lifetime of a sensor network is generally limited to the battery
  lifetime of sensor nodes.

SNPA 2003 is intended to provide a forum for researchers to present their
contributions as technical papers related to communication protocols for
WSNs, data management, access, aggregation and fusion techniques, and
sensor network applications. The papers solicited in SNPA 2003 cover a
variety of topics including but not limited to:

- Communication protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks at all layers 
- Novel sensor network applications and services
- Self organizing and scalable sensor network architectures
- Software platforms and tools for sensor network application development
- Energy efficient medium access control, error control, and traffic 
  management protocols
- Energy efficient system services such as localization and time
  synchronization
- Robust distributed algorithms for collaborative processing
- Mechanisms, protocols and algorithms for authenticated, secure
  communication
- Application specific network and system services, including data-centric
  routing, attribute based addressing and location management
- Data querying and dissemination
- Data compression, association, aggregation and fusion

Hi Alper,

 Good point.  I think it will depend on the policy of a visited
 subnet and an MN's capability.  But, from my understanding,
 registration requests via one FA that sends advertisements
 with an R-bit should be enough.

 One policy and a desirable MN's capability will be as follows:
 - Those FAs that send advertisements with an R-bit know
   how to pass through a firewall.  So, registration requests
   via those FAs may succeed.
 - But, via other FAs or routers, registration request packes
   will be blocked at a firewall.  So, registration requests will
   never succeed via those other FAs or routers.
 - MNs should select or change the 1st hop FA to those FAs
   that send advertisements with an R-bit.

Cheers.
-Yoshi

Hi James,

Some inline responses follow.
Mostly it's a brain dump, so some of
the ideas aren't necessarily thought through yet.

They may be able to use a dhcpv6 server with a "HMIPv6 MAP"
information option similar to supplying a DNS server.
(draft-ietf-dhc-dhcpv6-opt-dnsconfig-02.txt)

I'm not sure how mature DHCPv6 is, but DHCP has tradisitonally
been used in a similar role.
The option could even indicate coverage in a similar fashion to
the SLP idea. less DHCP probing would then be required.

The config could be stored on a server and access routers
act as relays, as today.

MAP Preference would be used to choose between multiple
redundant MAPs (as per Hesham's post).

Indeed, This is an important issue, but we're talking about
a routing proxy, so it is very interesting to the MN which
wants the signalling limitation which it supplies when handing
over.

Some node in the network either has to respond to a solicitation
in the probing case (even for SLP), so this either has to be
on the unicast path, the access router (a special case of the same)
or a multicast mechanism.

Unsolicited Advertising has many of the same issues.  The reason
is the separation of the MAP from the access network infrastructure
(which is one of the goals, IMHO).

I see the non-access network ideas to be:

unicast probing (like draft-vriz-mobileip-hbhlmap-00.txt)

multicast probing of a generic service (SLP Service Type or similar)

DHCPv6-proxies (with MAP info stored on a remote server)

specific multicast probing mechanism (to a discrete multicast address)

specific periodic multicast advertisement mechanism (Admin Scoped?)

Router Renumbering MAP Propagation (draft-ietf-mobileip-hmipv6-06.txt)

Can anyone think of another?

Absolutely.  We need to have at least one method defined (RA),
even if it is not available on all routers (it may be a simple
change for some).

That needn't inhibit using an advertisement or discovery protocol
which is independent of the access network hardware.

Greg.

There is no way for a MN to know if its Home and CareOf nonces for a
given CN have expired, and there may be occasions on which both have
expired (see 5.2.7). As things stand it may take two successive BU's for
the MN to discover and correct this situation. We could save round-trips
by adding an extra status code to section 6.1.8 meaning "Expired Home
and CareOf Nonce Indices" in response to which the MN issues both HoTi
and CoTi.

I agree. Proposed text to Section 6.1.8:

      140   Expired nonces


Section 9:

    If the mobile node sends a Home or Care-of Nonce Index value which
    is no longer recognized by the correspondent node, then the
    receiving node MUST send back a Binding Acknowledgement with status
    code 138 or 139, respectively.
=>
    If the receiving node no longer recognizes the Home
    Nonce Index value, Care-of Nonce Index value, or both values
    from the Binding Update, then the receiving node MUST
    send back a Binding Acknowledgement with status
    code 138, 139, or 140, respectively.

and

    If the Status field in the Binding Acknowledgement contains the
    value 137 (invalid authenticator), 138 (expired home nonce index),
    or 139 (expired care-of bonce index), then the message MUST NOT
    include the Binding Authorization Data mobility option.

    then the message MUST NOT include the Binding Authorization Data

I have thought about this some more. I think we should be
satisfied with just making a HOTI-HOT exchange when returning
home, and not add a second exchange.

I also propose adding the following text to 11.5.1 after
the first paragraph:

   However, if the mobile node has a recently received home
   or care-of cookie and associated nonce indices for the desired
   addresses, it MAY reuse them. Note also that when returning home, the
   mobile node MAY use the home cookie and nonce index as a care-of
   cookie and nonce index.

No it doesn't.

Suppose, again, that the new access router was routing address K received via
HI/HaCK from the old router, which consisted of a prefix H and a host identifier
J, H:J. That is to say, the old access router supports prefix H. Suppose the new
access router supports prefix X.

The new access router does ingress filtering on X. The new access router doesn't
have to accept any address with prefix H just because it accepts K. It only
accepts K.

If an attacker tries to use an address H:Q, where Q != J, the ingress filter
rejects it because H != X. However, the address H:J is sent properly because the
source route has been inserted.

Therefore, ingress filtering is irrelevent. It will work just fine on the new
access router, but is subject to the same constraints as ingress filtering in
general.

Greg,

Good list of options. DHCP is an interesting one, though I think something for
stateless autoconfig might be needed too. I wonder if DNS could work, for
example SRV record or NAPTR.

=> We're revisting this I think, how does it 
know that K is who it claims to be? HI/HACK
are irrelevant. We all know that there is a 
_real_ K on the link, but there is no proof that
the packet arriving at the AR's interface is coming
from K. We already agreed that addresses and MAC
addresses can be spoofed. So how can you know that
the packet came from K and not from some other
node pretending to be K?
This is how /64 spoofing is opened up.

=> It doesn't matter, the attacker can still use
H:J, that's still spoofing a prefix because
H is not meant to be used on this link.

=> I don't understand how this conclusion can be 
drawn. In normal operation scenarios no one can
send packets with prefix H, regardless of the iid.

Right, that's what I said. Ingress filtering does not stop someone spoofing a
legitimate address, nor spoofing an
address with a legitmate prefix. So, in that sense, it won't stop an attacker
from using an address X:Y, where Y is the host identifier for a legitimate node
on the link using the prefix _for which the router is performing ingress
filtering_.

It's the same way with K. Anybody can spoof K's address, but they can't spoof
another address with H as a prefix.

Solving this problem is what SEND is about.

I am not sure I understood how SEND would solve this. A totally
different node on the link is sourcing packets with source address
"K" without doing any neighbor discovery. Assuming it is a shared
medium, I am not sure how the Access Router can detect this.=20
What am I missing ?

=> I don't think SEND is about solving spoofed
prefixes. I don't know how to explain my point
any better :(. The crus of the point is that a
topologically incorrect prefix/address is made
legitimate and that allows attackers to launch
atacks without having their real loctions detected. 
This is what ingress filtering stops and we're 
breaking that in FMIPv6.

I don't think we are breaking it any more than
allowing HoA and reverse tunneling
from FA in MIPv4. Are we ?

I think it is harder to spoof an arbitrary combination
of off-link prefix and iid.
Here is what a malicious node needs to do I think.

- spoof the off-link prefix. How ? by monitoring the traffic ?
   How is prefix length determined ? The off-link prefix
   is never advertised on the new router's link. If the attacker
   moved from the link where the off-link prefix is valid,
   then he would know the off-link prefix.
- spoof the MAC address. How ? Through ND.
- keep looking for the "window" to open. That is, guess when
   the new router would allow traffic with previous CoA.
- send packets with the spoofed address

This is hard work with questionable incentives, especially if
the tunnel lifetime is kept short. So, by recommending the
tunnel be open only until the MN becomes a MIPv6 end-point,
we could significantly reduce any vulnerability: the window of time is
short, and the potential attacker has to keep looking for the
window to open. This seems like a balance to me.

And, to trace the source: I guess we should be able to reach the
previous AR right ? Since it has engaged in HI/HAck with new
AR, it knows the location where the previous CoA could be
active (until the lifetime of the tunnel). So, we could trace it.

I don't think MIPv4 is a good example :)

=> Who cares? It's spoofing the whole thing. Anyway,
the IPv6 prefix length is 64.

The off-link prefix

=> As I said earlier, in a real situation there is probably
more than one MN doing a handover, so there is more
than one of those addresses.

This says MN should only use the FA it has registered with.
I was looking for an answer that enables MN to use any
router/FA on the network once it's registered.

Is this a new requirement that ingress filtering should check both the
CoA
and the Mac address ? According to RFC2267, you are supposed to just
check
the IP address and I assume that is what most routers do.=20

Whether they do or not, reverse tunneling came about
because of ingress filtering, at least according to RFC 2344
that specifies reverse tunneling.
So, there is precedence in the standards process.

But to use more than one address, you need to keep spoofing
all those addresses and use them when their respective windows
are open. So, I still think the incentives are questionable.
However, we should include these issues under Security Considerations.

Perhaps this can be discussed in the new 802.11 work.

On this, the specification should follow
the base MIPv6 spec. That is, the MN
SHOULD configure a new CoA as soon
as it detects a new link. It MAY choose
to configure it at a later time. If it does so,
the MN SHOULD note that its packets
may be dropped when the tunnel lifetime
expires and additional (optional) protocol
support to renew the tunnel lifetime is
not available.

Note that when the MN is able to use
anticipation, it already has a new CoA,
which it may need to confirm upon connecting
to the new router.

Could someone provide the text for optional
support for deferring the new CoA
configuration (covering both MN and AR) ?

Issue: Should a Fastv6 MN be required to have the
option of deferring its new CoA configuration until
a "convenient" time ?

Background: In version 04, a MN can defer new CoA
configuration until it finds, for instance, suitable
radio resources (See Section 3.5.2). This would mean
that the MN would be required to suppress RS and
Router Advertisement every time it changes access routers
until a convenient time. This also means the previous CoA
would potentially have to be supported across a series of
access routers for arbitrary periods of time.

The proposal is to remove this restriction on new CoA
configuration.

Please respond
- YES if you agree to remove the restriction
    of deferring new CoA
- NO otherwise. Indicate a brief reason

Thanks,

-Rajeev

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit


The main issue is if the MN
leaves AR2 for AR3 before it updates the
correspondents while on AR2's link, packets don't
arrive to NCoA-2 and hence, once the tunnel
between AR1 and AR2 expires, the MN might
loose its packets (sent to NCoA-1) until it
updates its correspondents with NCoA-3!

This could be addressed by specifying that the
MN SHOULD treat AR1 as its previous router
if it is unable to update its binding while on AR2.
This means, even if a single binding could not
be updated, the MN MAY need to set up a tunnel
between AR1 and AR3. This tunnel set up is upto
the MN, since it may have intentionally not updated
its binding with one or more correspondents.

While the resolution on this issue is less clear,
I would like to start with a simpler protocol and
"naturally extend"it for the three party case, and
identify its deficiencies. Once we get more clarity
on the on-going discussion about how long a
tunnel for the previous CoA should be kept open
and the need for maintaining the performance
across a series of routers at the cost of additional
protocol (as opposed to falling back to base MIPv6)
becomes clearer, we could have an optional section
on three part handover (as was suggested).

Issue: Should "Three Party Handover" (Section 3.1.7 and
Section 3.4 in version 04) be specified as a natural
continuation of the base (i.e., Two Party) handover ?

Background: Both Section 3.1.7 and 3.4 describe
Three Party handover. Section 3.4 is especially
exhaustive. This is done with the objective of
avoiding potential routing loops (especially a
concern when the same IP address is used across
a series of routers) and chaining of tunnels.

Proposal: To allow the base protocol to operate
without specifically describing additional protocol
structure. In particular, if the MN returns back to
its previous AR without completing Mobile IPv6
Binding Update procedure, it must send a FBU
with lifetime of zero (Section 6.1.2 in v04), which
allows the PAR to disable any outgoing tunnels.
This, coupled with a short lifetime for the tunnels
and by making the MN configure a new CoA each
time it visits a new AR, should alleviate the need
for a special Three Party Handover protocol.

Please specify

- YES if you agree to describe Three Party
    Handover as a natural continuation of
    the base protocol with necessary requirements
- NO otherwise. Indicate a brief reason.

Thanks,

-Rajeev

I am confirming that there is a standards precedence for
supporting topologically inconsistent addresses, using reverse
tunneling. Ironically, in order to support RO in MIPv6, you
would have to allow use of previous CoA (until RR is done)
and reverse tunnel to previous AR.

So, if the window is not open, there is no damage to an
external network. And, may be you can trace the attacker
in that case :-)

Hello folks,

we have had some good discussion in the last
couple of weeks and I would like to progress the
draft forward. So, I will try to summarize the
discussion and propose moving forward.

It appears that we should allow traffic re-direction
upon processing the FBU even though the tunnel
itself may be set up earlier. Even though "secure
link layer" was brought up during the discussion,
the nature, purported support we could expect of
such link layers and whether we should rely on
such a functionality are all unclear. In addition,
it is not clear whether specification assuming such
functionality is within the scope of this WG.
So, we should not attempt specify traffic redirection
when FBU is not processed.

-Rajeev

Issue: Should the Previous AR forward packets
on the tunnel without explicitly receiving an FBU
from the MN ?

Background: In base Mobile IP, there has been considerable
discussion on traffic redirection and associated security
issues. Should fastv6 spec allow the PAR to enable packet
forwarding without explicitly receiving a (Fast) Binding
Update from the MN ? In particular, should we assume that
link layer would provide necessary authorization to redirect
traffic ?

Provide your input as either

YES: also provide a "brief" reasoning
NO: may provide a "brief" reasoning

Thanks,

-Rajeev

=> You're missing my point I think. The attacker
will keep sending regardless of whether the window
is open or not. The window will eventually open
(I hope) and packets will get through. 
If you know of a way of tracing the attacker on 
a WLAN that would be helpful in this discussion.

Subject: [mobile-ip] Summary of Issues: Forwarding without FBU



Hello folks,

we have had some good discussion in the last
couple of weeks and I would like to progress the
draft forward. So, I will try to summarize the
discussion and propose moving forward.

It appears that we should allow traffic re-direction
upon processing the FBU even though the tunnel
itself may be set up earlier. Even though "secure
link layer" was brought up during the discussion,
the nature, purported support we could expect of
such link layers and whether we should rely on
such a functionality are all unclear. In addition,
it is not clear whether specification assuming such functionality is within
the scope of this WG. So, we should not attempt specify traffic redirection
when FBU is not processed.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I'm trying to close issue #79 which dealt RFC 2462's
rules on how to behave when a DAD collision is detected.
Please see info & recommendation below:

BACKGROUND

In Hesham's scenario, the mobile node has, e.g., an EUI based address.
When away from home, the node runs into a collision. This collision
could be a real one, or perhaps caused by the bad guys. As a
result, RFC 2462 says (Sections 4 and 5.4.5) that the node
should stop using the address, wait for reconfiguration, and
if the collision happened for a link-local address, even disable
the interface.

PROBLEM

These actions are too drastic for a mobile node, and cause
several problems:

    1) One visit to a network that has the same address will
       render the mobile node's link-local address unusable even
       if the address could still be used in other networks.

    2) Disabling the interface is certainly an overkill.

    3) If we were sure there were no bad guys in the world,
       we could perhaps live with the above and trust the
       vendors to get their EUIs right. However, until we
       have SEcure Neighbor Discovery, it seems quite easy
       to launch attacks against mobile nodes: just drive
       through the city with a WLAN base station and respond
       to every DAD request you get. Everyone who sees your
       responses will disable themselves, waiting for
       reconfiguration.

    4) If the collision on a the link-local address leads
       to discarding the home address based on the same
       interface identifier (DAD vs. DIID) then the mobile
       node loses its home address, as well as the ability
       to talk to the home agent (as the security associations
       are per address).

RECOMMENDATION

Add a new section 7.6.

7.6. Changes to Duplicate Address Detection

Upon failing Duplicate Address Detection, RFC 2462 requires
IPv6 nodes to stop using the address and wait for reconfiguration.
In addition, if the failed address was a link-local address
formed from an interface identifier, the interface should
be disabled.

Mobile IPv6 extends this behaviour as follows. Upon failing
Duplicate Address Detection while away from home, a mobile node SHOULD
generate a new random interface identifier and use it for assigning
itself a new link-local address (again in the manner specified
by RFC 2462). The mobile node SHOULD NOT wait for reconfiguration
or disable the interface. The mobile node MUST NOT discard the
home address based on a failure of a link-local address with the
same interface identifier.

Most, if not all, of the below list needs to be satisfied by the access
router
if it is going to act as "oldAR" in FMIPv6.

It has to process FBU, that maps oldCoA to another IP address (e.g., newCoA
or newAR, more on this later...)

>

It must intercept packets addressed to oldCoA (which is perceived as a "home
address"). It must even assume ownership of this IP address and respond to
NS,
and DAD queries on behalf of the MN.

>
>     3) Tunnel packets addressed from the home address to the care of

Yes, it must tunnel packets destined to oldCoA to newCoA.

If ingress filtering is an issue, and the MN doesn't have a topologically
correct
source address to use, then yes, oldAR has to help with reverse tunneling as
well.

>

If that means "make sure the protocol signaling is secure", then yes.

I guess , yes.. Somehow the MN should be able to discover if one or more
access
routers can perform these functionalities... (maybe PrRtSol took care of
this??)

OK, we can live without this, I guess. If we disregard the possibility of
the old subnet
going through renumbering while the MN is still receiving forwading service
from
the oldAR, then we don't care about this...

Regardless of what variant of FMIPv6 we are looking at, the base idea is
simply "forwarding from previous care-of address", which requires home agent
functionality on the access router..

If an IPv6 router supports FMIPv6, that means it has implemented home agent
functionality (and more)... It's acting as home agent to the oldCoA of the
MN.

Of course, one might choose to place the FMIPv6 functionality, say, on a
server on the old link.. Though we cannot call it "oldAR" anymore..
I think we somehow just assumed that FMIPv6 functionality will be
implemented
on the access router (AR).

As far as oldAR is concerned, there is no difference. oldAR doesn;'t care of
the
newCoA belongs to MN or some other node. It simply accepts it as "CoA" and
tunnels packets to this endpoint.

Yes, FBU is the extended form of BU.

In the absence of sufficient link security where
anyone can spoof anyone else's source mac and IP
address, I don't think use of oldCoA at the new-link
presents an additional security risk. Ingress filtering is
about preventing untraceable attacks, and in this case
one can trace the attack back to oldAR, and to newAR
due to the state associated with this IP address. If this
tracing cannot be done in real-time (note that the associated
state has a lifetime), one has to rely on oldAR keeping
a log of such state..

hi Jari,

I would like it if we can specify that the Binding
Authorization Data option always appears last, if
it is used to protect the BU. the advantage is
that by the time you reach the Authorization Data
Option you have already scanned the packet upto 
this option and can include all the relevant fields
while checking the authenticator field.

draft 15 had specifed that the BU Auth Sub-Option 
should always appear last. we dont have such text
in the current draft.

Please dont do this. We havent decided whether to include the 
first 8 octets of the Mobility Header in the 'Header Len' field.

I would prefer the text to say    

    "The Mobility Header is considered as the upper layer protocol
     for the purposes of calculating the pseudo-header. The Upper-Layer
     Packet Length field in the pseudo-header MUST be set to the
     the total length of the Mobility Header"

for deregistering with the CN, the second option is never used.
the only way to send a deregister BU to the CN is by setting
the lifetime to 0. 

'setting the care-of address equal to the home address' is used
only when the MN returns home.

> Does it mean, for deletion (to keep its location private),

deregistering by way of setting the care-of address equal to
the home address is not related in any way to keeping the
MN's location private.

If the MN does not want the CN to know its current location,
it should not do Route Optimization. instead it should
reverse tunnel through its Home Agent.

I think that DNS is OK once you know where to
query...

Actually, I liked the SRV method, but was not sure
what information would be used in the query (esp for NAPTR)
for example, how would you determine your domain,
except using dhcp/stateful systems?

a default 'local' domain perhaps, which would supply
information about the access networks you participate in?
or would you find out your domain before querying for the MAP?

some suggestion has been made about having a default
site-local IP address for DNS. If this were used,
the MN wouldn't necessarily know the domain.

With some of the discussions going on, I can see some people might
think this is the only way triggers are generated and consumed. But
don't they consider the case where an access point (i.e., wired2wireless
bridge that can produce the trigger) is separated from the access
router (i.e., the consumer of the triggers)? How is this case neglected...?

Mohan,

You are right, it wouldn't.

I meant that it would solve the problem of a host claiming to be X:Y, where Y is
the host identifier for a legitimate node on the subnet using the prefix X,
which the router is routing.

In the case of K, which is being source routed, the router can check the MAC
address, which is also sent along with the HI. If the MAC layer is so insecure
that the MAC address can be spoofed, then the router SHOULD send a RA
immediately to force the MN to change its care of address if there is indication
of an attack. Once the MN has an address on the subnet, SEND can be used to
verify it.

I am not sure I understood how SEND would solve this. A totally
different node on the link is sourcing packets with source address
"K" without doing any neighbor discovery. Assuming it is a shared
medium, I am not sure how the Access Router can detect this.
What am I missing ?

Mohan,

We're talking about making changes in the access router. Routers today don't
support PrxyRtSol or PrxyRtAdv.

Is this a new requirement that ingress filtering should check both the
CoA
and the Mac address ? According to RFC2267, you are supposed to just
check
the IP address and I assume that is what most routers do.

I think the issues need some more clear definition. If a handover is
authenticated between the access routers, I don't see how any other address from
the source subnet could be spoofed on the new access router. An address send via
the authenticated HI/HACK that was source routed could be spoofed, of course,
but that is exactly the same for addresses that are on the link as well. The
access router performs ingress filtering using the address as a /128 instead of
the prefix as a /64.

Right, but this doesn't have anything to do with ingress filtering. The attacker
is using legitimate addresses, not addresses with an improper prefix. My
understanding of ingress filtering (which may not match yours) is that it is
designed to prevent an attack that uses a prefix different from the one being
routed on the link. Like a MN sending a packet with its home address from the
foreign link. That's why reverse tunneling was put into MIPv4, as Rajeev
mentioned.

It is because there is currently no way to tie down a particular IP address to a
particular MAC address (presuming the MAC address can't be spoofed). This
doesn't have anything to do with fast handover, it is a general property of
multiaccess links. If the link is wired and running 802.1x through a switch,
then the switch can tie down the MAC address to a particular port. An attacker
that tried to send his MAC address or to spoof someone elses from a different
port would be caught.

Rajeev,

I agree with putting 3 party handover into a section of the draft. I agree with
making support of 3 party handover optional.

Rajeev,

I disagree with this proposal. I sent out a proposal last week to modify the
signaling so that the FBU confirms completion of care of address configuration
on the new router. I believe the current FBU semantics in the fast handover
draft is confused, and contradicts how BU is defined in the base MIPv6 draft.

I think a better match with the semantics of base MIPv6 is for the HI/HACK to
optimize DAD by confirming CoA on the new router, and for the tunnel to be set
up once the PrxyRtAdv is sent. The draft should make this SHOULD. The old route
MAY rather wait until it has link layer confirmation of the handover via a link
down (secured if possible). Then, when the MN has completed BU to HA, RR, BUs to
CN, etc. etc., it sends FBU to old AR to remove the tunnel.

=> My comment was that if there was no fast handover
then we are limited by the prefix located on that link.
Sure, the same attack can be done but at least the location
(link) will be known, which is not the case when fast handovers
are used. 
A later mail from Alper made sense to me (about tracking the
address to the oAR) although I don't know if ARs will log
every address as he suggested. 
But I still have another question related to having more
than one AR on-link. I'll have to think about that first
to see if it's an issue.

=> there is a precedence in the standard because there
was a need for topologically incorrect addresses. We
don't need to apply it here unless we have to.

=> You're missing my point I think. The attacker
will keep sending regardless of whether the window
is open or not. The window will eventually open
(I hope) and packets will get through. 
If you know of a way of tracing the attacker on 
a WLAN that would be helpful in this discussion.

AJOY-> I think someone else might have made this point
before, but anyhow I would like to repeat this once
again. I think this problem can be solved by reverse
tunneling. The reverse tunneling would allow all the 
spoofed packets to pass though the firewall of new 
access network, but the same packets will be dropped
by the firewall of old access network. Hence, it 
will be difficult to launch DoS
attack without getting caught. Am I missing anything
here?

The base MIPv6 specification doesn't say "oldCoA" it says "home address".

The oldCoA is not the home address. It is not in the DNS, it is not on the MN's
home link.

No, it doesn't. It means "protect return routability packets through an IPsec
security association." These are specific requiremnts on the home agent
precisely stated so as to facilitate interoperable implementations, not a
collection of nebulous generalities about security.

Clearly, this functionality is irrelevent for a router. It has nothing to do

I disagree. I don't believe home agent functionality is required for FMIPv6.
FMIPv6 is defining a modification to the IPv6 routing protocol for Mobile IP
edge routing. I believe we must make it fit well with last hop IPv6 routing as
well as Mobile IP. Home agent functionality was clearly defined with a different
purpose in mind.

I don't think the FMIPv6 functionality can be put in any old server on the link,
I think it must be in the router. We need to be very clear about the changes we
are proposing. These changes are in routing. I don't believe we need to have any
major architectural changes, like home agent servers on the last hop, in order
to make Mobile IP handover fast.

The IPv6 WG is working on an anycast protocol for IPv6 DNS server discovery, but
I don't know if that requires knowing the local domain or not. Of course, with
DHCP you could configure it.

This is just a"nested" Mobile IPv6 going on. or "forwarding from previous
care-of address". Same thing. Just like HA was intercepting HomeAddr and
tunneling packets to oldCoA while MN was at the old-link, if MN wants
its packets to be forwarded to newCoA, it should send a binding update
to oldAR where home address field is set to oldCoA, and the care-of address
field is set to newCoA. Now oldAR acts as a home agent for oldCoA, therefore
it intercepts packets sent to it and tunnel them to newCoA.

This is like running two instances of Mobile IP for the same MN. In one,
HomeAddr and oldCoA used, in other, oldCoA and newCoA used.
Now packets sent to HomeAddr are tunneled to oldCoA, and once
intercepted by oldAR, these packets are further tunneled to newCoA.

In the above message of mine, the IP address oldCoA is used as a
home agent when oldAR acts as a home agent.

In this case, there doesn't have to be any RR that involves oldAR. All MN
needs is a tunnel from oldAR to newCoA, hence a simple (and secured)
BU/FBU to oldAR is sufficient. If the MN further wants to update CNs with
its newCoA, this BU should involve RR that goes thorugh the original HA
(and of course should happen after MN registers its newCoA with this HA).

I think we have a different view on this.

Well, OK, I guess since it has to respond to RS/RA, PrRtSol/PrRtAdv, we'd
have to call it a router..

Whether we call it a "server", or "router", this is home agent
functionality.
Nothing less.

hiya everyone,
  there wasnt any reponse to my mail....so i would like to repeat my
Question again...
What are the current issues in MobileIP on which research is going on and in
which areas there is still need for research to be done.

Hi,

With reference to draft-18, I have some doubts regarding Mobile Prefix
Advertisements

Section 10.9.2 : Scheduling Prefix Deliveries to the Mobile Node
   "The home agent uses the following algorithm to determine when to send
   prefix information to the mobile node.

    -  If the mobile node has not received the prefix information within
       the last HomeRtrAdvInterval seconds, then transmit the prefix
       information.  This MAY be done according to a periodically
       scheduled transmission."

1) What is "HomeRtrAdvInterval" and how it is communicated to MN?Is it a
contant value?

Section 11.3.3: Sending Mobile Prefix Solicitations
   "The mobile node SHOULD send a Solicitation to the home agent when
   its home address will become invalid within MaxRtrAdvInterval
   seconds, where this value is acquired in a previous Mobile Prefix
   Advertisement from the home agent.  If no such value is known, the
      value MAX_PFX_ADV_DELAY seconds is used instead (see section 12)."

2) How "MaxRtrAdvInterval" is conveyed to MN? Is it through
"AdvIntervalOption"?
3) What should be the value of "MaxRtrAdvInterval"?

For Mobile IPv6 the MaxRtrAdvInterval is 1.5 secs.

4) How MaxRtrAdvInterval is similar to MAX_PFX_ADV_DELAY ?

In my opinion "MaxRtrAdvInterval" should be "HomeRtrAdvInterval". Please
correct me if i am wrong.

thanks
Sourajeet...

Further research and work required in:

Security and encryption (particularly when the encryptor is between the 
Mobile node and the FA in IPv4), network access, rapid handoffs, anything 
related IPv6 and mobile networking.

Dynamic firewall configuration  -- my network security doesn't allow UDP to 
pass.

Hallo,


probably it's helpful in the security discussion ... is anybody on the list
involved into HIP Host Identity Payload or at least knows  the actual status
of the WG (if still existing) ? They should have thought about something
similar
already ... what have been their ideas ?

Regards

Jochen

Ok.  I'll go along, but please specify what should
be done with the packet if the Auth Data option is
not last.  It seems like the choices are:

	- Process anyway	
	- Silently drop
	- BAck with new error code.
	- ICMP Parameter Problem code 2

RFC 2462 does not talk about what's required to generate a random IID.
Perhaps you meant to reference 3041 for how to generate a random IID?

What should happen to the link-local address that failed DAD?  Should
it remain "tentative" untill the node moves again and then retry DAD?

Alper,
  I think that we should separate the IETF work that was going on at 
pilc mailing list from the needs of FMIPv6. What has been on the table, 
i.e. L2 triggers in my opinion strictly belongs to FMIPv6 and that is 
the reason I said this work should probably be revisitied and renamed 
and possibly redefined and then integrated with FMIPv6 protocol.
  We had sometimes heated debates on pilc ML on, something like banana, 
it was a different thing for everyone involved in the discussion.
  I do not know if any new discussion is going on.
Regards,

With some of the discussions going on, I can see some people might
think this is the only way triggers are generated and consumed. But
don't they consider the case where an access point (i.e., wired2wireless
bridge that can produce the trigger) is separated from the access
router (i.e., the consumer of the triggers)? How is this case neglected...?

Options:
1. Disable the link-local address until the MN moves to a different 
link (as you suggest above) at which time it can perform DAD again
2. Disable address for a specific period of time
3. Disable address till MN returns home 

I prefer option 1.

I agree with this. oAR should forward packets to nAR 
only when it receives the FBU.

The FBU is a signal which begins the forwarding of packets from
the oAR via the tunnel that has been setup. The Hi/HAck signaling
setups the tunnel even before the MN may have moved (just an example
here). Hence the use of Hi/HAck for initiating the packet forwarding
from oAR is not useful.

 Hello folks,
 
 we have had some good discussion in the last
 couple of weeks and I would like to progress the
 draft forward. So, I will try to summarize the
 discussion and propose moving forward.
 
 It appears that we should allow traffic re-direction
 upon processing the FBU even though the tunnel
 itself may be set up earlier. Even though "secure
 link layer" was brought up during the discussion,
 the nature, purported support we could expect of
 such link layers and whether we should rely on
 such a functionality are all unclear. In addition,
 it is not clear whether specification assuming such functionality is 
 within the scope of this WG. So, we should not attempt specify traffic 
 redirection when FBU is not processed.

> Agree that we we should not attempt specify traffic  redirection when FBU
is not processed.

Hi All

I was wondering why the size of Kbu is specified as 16 octets?

The Kbu is generated using a SHA1 hash with produces a 20 octet
result, but that result seems to be truncated to 16 octets and
I really can't find a good reason to do it.

So, can someone enlighten me please...

"be liberal in what you accept" ;-). if it is not the 
last and you still havent reached then end of the Mobility 
Header, you continue processing, looking for the relevant 
fields before verifying the authenticator field.

Sorry that it is not fully clear. I will try and answer your questions below.

It is the Home Router Advertisement Interval. I.e., the interval at which
Router Advertisements are sent on the home network. Yes, it is a constant value
based on the configuration of the home agent.

Yes, it could be conveyed through that option.

In section 7.5, MaxRtrAdvInterval is defined.

Yes, this is true, and this is a problem. The MPAs should be sent periodically,
but not nearly that often. I will address this in another, follow-up e-mail.

> 
> 4) How MaxRtrAdvInterval is similar to MAX_PFX_ADV_DELAY ?

Here is my personal interpretation:

MaxRtrAdvInterval is the maximum amount of time that the Home Agent should wait
in between sending Router Advertisements on the home link. MAX_PFX_ADV_DELAY is
the maximum amount of time it is estimated that prefix advertisements will be
delayed in transit. MaxRtrAdvInterval is more related to the characteristics of
the network, as in how often prefixes might change, how likely it is for a node
to spontaneously turn on or lose its prefix information, etc.
MAX_PFX_ADV_DELAY, on the other hand, is solely related to the latency,
distances between nodes, and number of gateways in the network.

This is unrelated to the question you asked above, about what MPAs should use,
which I will write another e-mail about as promised.

No, the HomeRtrAdvInterval is the amount of time between RAs. The
MaxRtrAdvInterval is the maximum value for HomeRtrAdvInterval.

Hello Jim,

your proposal below constitutes a bigger change than
the issue is attempting to handle. Certainly folks
should engage in discussion. In the meanwhile,
I would like to progress the draft based on the
summary of discussion.

Hello,

Yesterday I submitted a new draft that describes how the FMIPv6 work
might apply in an 802.11 network.  It has appeared in the
internet-drafts directory and you can find it at:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-mccann-mobileip-80211fh-00.txt

Please read and comment (preferably in that order).

I think I have found significant issues with both of the main
approaches that were proposed in fmipv6-04.  I hope this draft can
contribute a dose of reality to the discussion going forward.  I
think there are several opportunities for closer collaboration with
link-layer standards bodies like the IEEE, once some of these issues
are understood.

-Pete

Alper,

I agree this case is important. It would help with 802.11 handover, for example,
to have such a protocol. Unfortunately, some people view this as an L2
functionality. So it seems we can't even get agreement about the need for a
protocol, much less a collection of abstractions to expose L2 functionality to
L3.

Forwarding from previous care of address was taken out of the base MIPv6 spec
because the functionality is covered by FMIPv6. The current state of the FMIPv6
discussion (as I understand it, Rajeev can correct me), does not include the
option of having the FBU trigger forwarding to the new CoA through a tunnel
immediately after a handover, the forwarding is to the new router at the the old
CoA to avoid the case where the MN hasn't yet got the new CoA completely
configured. In the proposal I made, the new CoA would get forwarded to after it
was fully configured, if any laggard packets were still around after the MN
compltely configured its new care of address.

It sounds like you are proposing something different, perhaps re-inserting the
former text on forwarding from previous care of address into the FMIPv6 spec? If
so, I suggest you make a proposal which we can debate in a separate thread. I
believe the functionality you are asking for is included in the proposal I made,
but in a way that is more consistent with the existing base MIPv6 spec.

Exactly whether RR or an IPsec secured tunnel should be used is open for debate.
My point is, the security on a fast handover won't look exactly like a home
agent's, therefore, it is incorrect to call the router a home agent.

> Whether we call it a "server", or "router", this is home agent

> Nothing less.

Clearly we disagree. My opinion is that a home agent is that network element
which implements the required home agent functionality in the MIPv6 base draft,
nothing more nor less. If we are to start picking and choosing functionality out
of that list and putting it in the router, then we can't call it a home agent,
and we need to consider whether the picked and chosen functionality is the
architecturally correct way to satisfy the requirements.

Hi everyone,

There have been a few questions about the Mobile Prefix Advertisement
definition in terms of how often MPAs should be sent to mobile nodes. So, I
would like to write this e-mail to summarize the current situation and suggest
some easy improvements and fixes. I apologize in advance if the message is a
bit long.

Since we re-wrote Tunneled Router Advertisements into Mobile Prefix
Advertisements in order to simplify things, some things have changed in the
draft. Most notably, security procedures have been vastly improved, exposing
many smaller questions about how to secure messages, MPAs included. We have
also had some implementation experience from our group and one or two others,
who have implemented MPS/MPA and seen some potential improvements.

First of all, let's review why MPAs are needed. The requirement is two-fold:

1. Support the MN configuring all of the addresses it would have in the home
link (since this is a MIP design philosophy).
1a. A subset of this goal is to support the "bootstrapping" procedure for a
mobile node to configure its home address. So the MPA must contain enough info
for this to happen.

2. Renumbering. The MPA must allow a MN which is away from home, but registered
during the renumbering period, to get prefix info about the new prefix it
should start using and info to deprecate the old one.


So for task {1}, there are certain times that the MN must receive prefix info:

{1}A. After the MN establishes a binding, it should receive all of the prefix
info. (I.e. not at every BU, but just the first one that creates a BCE).
{1}B. When a prefix changes that is on the link of the MN's home addr, the MN
should be sent an MPA with at least that changed prefix info.

The Router Advertisement is sent periodically because it's impossible to tell
who is on the home link. However, the HA always knows which MNs are roaming, so
the rules for {1} are easy and there is no periodicity, per se. However, since
the MPAs are unguaranteed ICMP messages, we should introduce another rule for
periodic transmission, called {1}C. Sending this every 1.5s is too often, but
perhaps a retransmission interval of MIN(RtrAdvInterval,
Some_Constant_Like_15s) might be OK.

{1}C. Retransmit the full list every MIN(HomeRtrAdvInterval, 15s) - optional?

For task {1a}, people have made suggestions on the list that this info might be
insecure, since there may not be an SA between the MN and HA. It was commented
that perhaps we can use some form of Dynamic Home Agent Discovery or Secure DNS
to construct at least one home address, set up a binding, and then get the rest
of the prefixes. I like this idea, since it could make a shorter path to
establish the SA, and then we could proceed with the rules for case {1}.

For task {2}, we assume that task {1} is already complete, and there is a
current binding. So this case really falls into a special case of {1}B, with
the requirement that {1}C (retransmissions) also occurs, at least until a new
BU is received. In fact, the MPA can be sent with a Binding Request, as
specified.


So in summary, it might ease implementation if, at some convenient point, we
streamline the rules further according to what is outlined above. Of course
this does not address the issue of how to build the list of prefixes, which
might also be improved after there is more interop testing and more
implementations.

How do other implementors feel about these refinements?

And P.S., if you, gentle reader, have actually *implemented* MPAs, or are in
the process of doing so, please send me an e-mail.

Hi James,

Having played around with a few commercial implementations of MIP,
all of them I have touch so far, do use L2 triggers!  Its just a 
matter of time before the concept is no longer so foreign to 
everybody.  I am confident that eventually people will see the 
value of cross layer design for MIP, QoS, security, etc.

Best regards,

Phil

Alper,

I agree this case is important. It would help with 802.11 handover, for
example,
to have such a protocol. Unfortunately, some people view this as an L2
functionality. So it seems we can't even get agreement about the need for a
protocol, much less a collection of abstractions to expose L2 functionality
to
L3.

The way I underestood the above is that there is no upper limit
to the retransmissions, i.e every ~15s the HA will send the
Prefix Adv.

Was that the intent?

The intent is to give a minimum threshold so that the MPA will not be sent
overly often, especially over a resource-constrained link. So if the
HomeRtrAdvInterval is less than the threshold, the HA will just hold off on
sending an MPA.

But that's not was it looks like we get.  The default HomeRtrAdvInterval is
3600s.  So unless the default is changed, you'll be sending full MPAs to
all mobile nodes every 15s (according to the MIN in your rule).  I don't
think you want to do that.

Also, rereading the draft, it looks like there is already a retransmission
with exponential backoff time specified for unsolicited MPAs.

Ah, I see your point. I meant to have a minimum interval, which would mean a
MAX() of the interval and a specified amount. But the MPA spec as it stands,
should be OK for this. We have an interval specified of 10 minutes as you point
out.

There is also a randomized delay (up to 1,000 seconds) so that when prefix info
changes, not all MPAs are sent out at once. But that's a bit different than an
exponential backoff, and since there is no ACK/NAK for these, it wouldn't be
possible to "back off" anyway. So the periodic announcements would seem to
occur every 10min+ (and are optional). This still seems OK to me.

Doh! I forgot about the exponential backoff and hit "send" too fast. :) You are
right about that!

when I wrote that email, issue 51 was still open. infact the

this is not a strong argument.

this implementation technique is bad. I dont do a byte copy 
of the MH contents from the incoming HoTi message onto the 
outgoing HoT message. when I construct a HoT message, I fill
in each field.

reducing it to 32 bits saves me a few 64 bit operations.

dont agree.

Jari,

On your draft "Using IPsec to Protect Mobie IPv6 Signaling between Mobile
Nodes and Home Agents,

7.2.4 Payload Packets

       mobile node SPD OUT:
         - IF interface = tunnel to home agent & source = home address &
              destination = any & proto = any
           THEN USE SA7
       ...

When the MN register with the HA with the S-flag set to 0, the HA creates 
multiple Binding Cache entries, one for each of possibly several home 
addresses.  Am I correct, that each home address will require a separate
mobile node SPD OUT/IN policy, similarly for the SAD?

Another question I have is that when the prefix is changed, the home address
will change which will affect the IPSec SPD and SAD.  How does IPSec know
the Prefix is changed w/o special handshaking mechanism with MIPv6?  

Thanks!

Joe Lau

Why is the FBU any better signal for beginning forwarding of packets? It can
also (and often is) sent prior to the MN moving.

It sounds like I am outvoted (for now).

Perhaps we can schedule some discussion on this in Atlanta? I really do think it
would improve the design to make the BU semantics more symmetrical with the base
draft. I don't think it will help to talk about this on email now because the
bandwidth is not high enough to really explore the issues in detail.

Well, yes but if we do this then I'm not sure what the order
requirement buys us. Then we need code to calculate the authenticator
when the message is split in several parts.

I was thinking that BAD MUST be the last one (or else drop it),
otherwise we might as well have a free order.

Note that if the order is free, then implementations who don't want to
have code for the BU send case can always place it the last one anyway,
but they have to support receiving BAD in any place.

My suggestion is that the option MUST be last, and we SHOULD
drop the BU if it is not.

I really doesn't have to be specified anywhere, after all it's just the
nested

From oldAR perspective, once the binding cache entry is in place, it
really doesn't matter if the "care-of address field" has newCoA, or newAR,
or some other IP address.

Hopefully not RR. I cannot imagine MN going through RR that involves its
original home agent in the middle of a "fast handover". MN better bootstrap
a security association with its oldAR while it's still connected to it and
use IPsec.
This is what we should be looking at first, not RR. [anyways, this was a
side note].

Just for clarification, I'm just saying that router is also implementing
"home agent functionality", like it could also have NAS and DHCP server
functionalities.

I think we went over these functionailities in the earlier message, and
it seems like our oldAR satistifies almost all of them.

 In your previous mail you wrote:

   On your draft "Using IPsec to Protect Mobie IPv6 Signaling between Mobile
   Nodes and Home Agents,
   
   7.2.4 Payload Packets
   
          mobile node SPD OUT:
            - IF interface = tunnel to home agent & source = home address &
                 destination = any & proto = any
              THEN USE SA7
          ...
   
   When the MN register with the HA with the S-flag set to 0, the HA creates 
   multiple Binding Cache entries, one for each of possibly several home 
   addresses.  Am I correct, that each home address will require a separate
   mobile node SPD OUT/IN policy, similarly for the SAD?
   
=> if the SPD doesn't support address sets, a set of entries is needed.
You are right.

   Another question I have is that when the prefix is changed, the home address
   will change which will affect the IPSec SPD and SAD.  How does IPSec know
   the Prefix is changed w/o special handshaking mechanism with MIPv6?  
   
=> this is not a Mobile IPv6 issue but a general issue for IPv6 renumbering:
if there are explicit addresses in the policy, the policy must be updated
when a prefix is changed... Fortunately renumbering is both a rare and
a medium term (i.e., in days or weeks) event.

Regards

Francis.Dupont@enst-bretagne.fr

PS: RFC 3041 is a more important issue in this case, but again this
is a IPv6 problem, not a mobility one.

Jari,

Thanks for making the details explicit. Some questions on this and related issues:

1. It would help if you somehow numbered the requirements, as it would make references to specific requirements much easier.

2. It appears that the care-of address in BU is not properly protected, if ESP is used for protection. I looked for a requirement to use the Alternate Care-of Address option in the BU if ESP protection is used, but could not find it. Also, with ESP the Home Address seems to be protected via the pseudo header (used in the checksum calculation) only. Is this by design?

3. It seems that in total 16 entries in SPD and SAD are needed for each MN in the HA. Has anyone calculated how much space these take? What would be max number of MNs that can be supported by a HA with a typical IPsec implementation with these requirements? Should alternative solutions be explored, where each MN would require less IPsec state?

4. One approach could be to utilize the MN-HA ESP tunnel also for Mobility Header protection. At the minimum, all MH-headers in the tunnel regardless of the source and destination address should be encrypted. This would protect the MN-HA BU/BA signaling, as well as return routability messages sent through HA. Optionally, ALL packets in the tunnel could be protected.

5. To further reduce the number of SAs, all mobility related signaling specified in the Mobile IPv6 spec should be utilizing the Mobility Header instead of ICMPv6 (Mobile Prefix Solicitation/Advertisement, Home Agent Address Discovery messages). IMO this would be very logical, clarifying improvement also from non-security viewpoint.

6. The MH Authenticator option SHOULD be an option for MN-HA MH protection, should the security relationship between MN and HA say so. Why not?

7. MN/HA SAs could be used both in tunnel and transport modes, if there is desire to send the BU/BA in the transport mode. However, it is likely that better header compression results are achieved with the tunnel mode (IP headers of random BU/BA are unlikely to get compressed, while the tunnel's outer headers are highly likely to be compressed).

With regards,

It is perhaps best to reference RFC 3041 to get the details
of generating random addresses. However, RFC 3041 does
not seem to talk about link-local addresses, only global
addresses. Also, we will likely want to have a different
action than RFC 3041 specified when the five attempts
run out. Here's a suggested new text proposal on describing
this:

7.6. Changes to Duplicate Address Detection

Upon failing Duplicate Address Detection, RFC 2462 requires
IPv6 nodes to stop using the address and wait for reconfiguration.
In addition, if the failed address was a link-local address
formed from an interface identifier, the interface should
be disabled.

Mobile IPv6 extends this behaviour as follows. Upon failing
Duplicate Address Detection while away from home, the
mobile node SHOULD stop using the address on this interface
until the mobile node moves to another link. The mobile
node SHOULD NOT wait for reconfiguration or disable the
interface.

The mobile node MUST NOT discard the home address based on a
failure of a link-local address with the same interface identifier.
Instead, the mobile node SHOULD generate a new random interface
identifier and use it for assigning itself a new link-local
address. In order to do this, the mobile node applies to the
link-local address the procedure described in RFC 3041 for
global addresses. At most 5 consecutive attempts SHOULD be
performed to generate such addresses and test them through
Duplicate Address Detection. If after these attempts no
non-unique address was found, the mobile node SHOULD log
a system error and give up attempting to find a link-local
address on that interface, until the node moves to a new link.

 In your previous mail you wrote:

had to publish the draft last week because of the IPv6 ETSI plugtest).

   2. It appears that the care-of address in BU is not properly
  protected, if ESP is used for protection. I looked for a requirement
  to use the Alternate Care-of Address option in the BU if ESP
  protection is used, but could not find it.

=> this was discussed in the list and was considered as a good use of
the alternate CoA sub-option.

   Also, with ESP the Home Address seems to be protected via the
   pseudo header (used in the checksum calculation) only. Is this by
   design?
   
=> this is a mistake and to put (or not) the HA in the BU is still an open
issue (it was before the draft 18).

   4. One approach could be to utilize the MN-HA ESP tunnel also for
  Mobility Header protection. At the minimum, all MH-headers in the
  tunnel regardless of the source and destination address should be
  encrypted. This would protect the MN-HA BU/BA signaling, as well as
  return routability messages sent through HA.

=> the MN-HA BU/BA signaling must not be protected this way because
this opens a trivial chicken and egg issue (as it is used to build
the tunnel). In fact, the BU/BA signaling is the only thing which
needs a special processing (i.e., which can't enter into a mobile
IPsec VPN stuff for instance).

  Optionally, ALL packets in the tunnel could be protected.

=> this is what I call "mobile IPsec VPN" convergence.
   
   6. The MH Authenticator option SHOULD be an option for MN-HA MH
  protection, should the security relationship between MN and HA say
  so. Why not?
   
=> the draft 18 mandates IPsec which is available (in IPv6 compliant
implementation) and easier to use (no need for a new DOI for instance).

   7. MN/HA SAs could be used both in tunnel and transport modes, if
  there is desire to send the BU/BA in the transport mode.

=> the choice is to use transport mode for end-to-end protection
and tunnel mode where there is an encapsulation. There is no need
for other options.

   However, it is likely that better header compression results are
  achieved with the tunnel mode (IP headers of random BU/BA are unlikely
  to get compressed, while the tunnel's outer headers are highly likely
  to be compressed).
   
=> the BU/BA traffic is sparse and carries "random" fields so
the compression argument doesn't apply.

So is there a plane to make this a requirement?

IMO HA should be in the BU, in general the BU should be as self contained
as possible.

As the IPsec SA is identified with the SPI, destination address, and the 
IPsec protocol, wouldn't it be possible to use a wildcard source address 
for the HA's incoming SA for each MN? Naturally each MN should have a 
separate SA, but the SPI field should be enough to multiplex them. If 
this is possible, then the HA's incoming SA would just ignore the source 
address, and would thus work from any address (home address, care-of 
address, new care-of address, etc.). The outgoing SA could be updated 
by the BU the same way as is currently done for the MN-HA tunnel SAs.

Is it really easier? To me the current method seems rather complex! 
Is there any Mobile IPv4 experience we could learn from?

I'm also beginning to think the use of IPsec for this was tougher
than expected. However, I'm not sure we have any easy alternative
either. MH authenticator option does not offer protection for HOTI/HOT
for instance.

Non-editorial comments associated with RFC3012bis:

Please post your comments with the appropriate issue number in the
subject line (instead of simply replying to this email).

-Chairs.



Non-editorial:
1. The protocol seems to be suject to bogus registration replies.

2. Section 3.1:
   Whenever the Agent Advertisement contains the Challenge extension, if
   the mobile node does not have a security association with the Foreign
   Agent, then it MUST include the Challenge value in a Mobile-Foreign
   Challenge extension to the Registration Request message.  If, on
   the other hand, the mobile node does have a security association
   with the foreign agent, it SHOULD include the Challenge value in its
   Registration Request message.

   Why the "SHOULD"? What breaks if it doesn't include it?
   One would naively assume that it is has a MN-FA SA that there is
   no need for the challenge.

3. Section 3.1 doesn't specify what the MN should do when it receives
   a STALE_CHALLENGE. 
   It also doesn't specify whether the MN should extract a new
   challenge value from a registration reply which has an error in it.

4. If there are multiple FAs on the visited link, is the assumption
   that the MN needs to track which FAs have issued which challenge?
   If so it would make sense to make this clear.

5. Section 3.2
   "attempting to replay a previous advertisement and authentication.  If
   the challenge extension is needed and does not exist, the Foreign"
   What does "needed" mean here? That the FA has a policy knob whether
   or not it is needed? Or something else?

6. The section doesn't talk about what happens when the reply is
   lost between the FA and MN.

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

   This seems suboptimal. If the reply is lost between the FA and MN
   then the MN can't send a new request until it has received a new
   agent advertisement.  Why not have the "keep N+1 challege values"
   apply to the values sent in both advertisements and replies? 

8. "   pending registration request list [7].  Also in this case, the
   Foreign Agent MUST reject any Registration Reply message coming from
   the Home Agent that does not also include the Challenge Extension
   with the same Challenge Value that was included in the Registration
   Request.  The Foreign Agent MUST send the rejected Registration"
   
   This MUST seems to imply that a FA implementing this specification
   is not allowed to interoperate with a HA which does not implement
   this specification. Did I get that right?

9. It seems odd that the Mobile-Foreign challenge is carried between
   the FA and HA. In fact, its use there seems to be different in that
   it seems to be a cookie used to reject bogus registration replies
   from the HA. This odd use then results in having the FA be required
   to replace the challenge it receives from the HA as specified in
   3.3. If there is need for a cookie/challenge between FA and HA,
   that seems to be completely separate from the MN-FA challenge.

10. Section 3.4

    The section doesn't specify what checks the HA does on the received
    registration request; it just specifies what it needs to put in
    the reply. 

11.    Since the extension type for the Challenge extension is within the
   range 128-255, the Home Agent MUST process such a Registration
   Request even if it does not recognize the Challenge extension [7].
   In this case, the Home Agent will send a Registration Reply to the
   Foreign Agent that does not include the Challenge extension.

   I fail to see the utility of sending a reply back without a challenge 
   since the FA is required to reject the reply.

12. Section 5 introduces a subtype but there is no IANA considerations
    mention of this and the rules for assigning new subtype values.

13. Section 8
    The concatentation of fields for MD5 include "length" and "SPI"
    but it isn't clear to me how many bits of length and SPI are fed
    in since these two fields are not fields in the protocol itself as
    I understand it.

14. Section 12 
   Whenever a Foreign Agent updates a field of the Registration Reply
   (as suggested in section 3.2), it invalidates the authentication
   data supplied by the Home Agent in the Mobile-Home Authentication
   extension to the Registration Reply.  Thus, this opens up a security
   exposure whereby a node might try to supply a bogus Registration
   Reply to a mobile node that causes the mobile node to act as if its
   Registration Reply were rejected.  This might happen when, in fact, a
   Registration Reply showing acceptance of the registration might soon
   be received by the mobile node.

   The section reference should be 3.3.

   More importantly, is there no way to ameliorate this?
   It seems like a serious technical definiciency.

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

   How can it be avoided?
   There doesn't seem to be a CHAP_SPI_HMAC_MD5 defined.

16.    -  Foreign agent recommended to include a Challenge in every
       Registration Reply, so that mobile node can re-register without
       waiting for an Advertisement.
       With the side effect of opening up a security hole - bogus
       registration replies must be accepted by the MN.

Hello,

RFC3012bis which has completed WG last call has been reviewed by the
ADs and the following is the feedback that we have received. Erik had
a number of comments that are both editorial and non-editorial. 
We (chairs) would like to get feedback from the WG on how to address
the non-editorial comments. 

Please post your comments with the appropriate issue number in the
subject line (instead of simply replying to this email).

-Chairs.

Editorial:
1. The document doesn't say that it obsoletes RFC 3012 which I gather
   is the intent. Putting a sentence to that effect at the end
   of the abstract would be good.

2. The abstract talks about "ironclad replay protection" and gives
   the impression that this update provides it. But the protocol
   seems to be suject to bogus registration replies.
   Perhaps the abstract should be more accurate in what the protocol
   actually provides.

3. The abstract talks of "use of existing techniques" but I suspect
   that today a lot richer authentication techniques than CHAP are
   being used elsewhere e.g. with EAP. If I read the abstract and not
   the rest of the spec I might very well believe that this would
   provide extensible autentication methods for mobile ip. Thus saying
   that "this provides CHAP" would be better. 
   Same comment on the introduction.

4. Note that the RFC editor isn't happy about the abstract and
   introduction being identical. I'm sure the actual protocol can be
   introduced in the introduction as one way to address this general
   concern.  

5. Section 1.1:
   All SPI values defined in this document refer to values for the
   Security Parameter Index, as defined in the base Mobile IP protocol
   specification [7].
   This reads oddly and is odd in the terminology section. Isn't the
   intent to say that this document uses the term SPI as defined in
   [7] 

6. Why does the document need to introduce two terms (previously used
   challenge and stale challenge) for the same thing? 

      unknown challenge
               Any challenge that the foreign agent has no record of
               having put either into one of its Agent Advertisements or
               a corresponding registration reply message.

  Given that is doesn't keep track of all AAs, adding "recent" before
  AA would make sense. The word "corresponding" makes no sense to me
  here since AA and Rreply don't correspond as far as I
  know. "(recent) registration replies send to the Mobile Node" make 
  sense. 

7. Section 3.1 uses the term "security association" but that term has
   not been defined. Is it supposed to be the same as Mobility
   Security Association in [7]? 

8. The organization of section 3 is confusing. Section 3.1 is titled
   "Mobile Node Processing for Registration Requests" yet it talks
   about the MN processing registration replies. If you want to
   preserve the temporaral ordering (message flow odering) present in
   section 3 to put the MN processing of reg replies in a new section
   3.5. 

9. In section 3.1 I was expecting to see something about
   retransmission behavior for registration requests sent by the MN. 
   If it is identical to [7] it would be helpful to say that. But I
   think it also needs to say something about the challenge values

    The SHOULD says that it is ok for the FA to in some cases not

    But if it isn't included, the challenge extension received from
    the HA MUST be dropped. Otherwise the MN will think it received a

   0-255.

How about using MH Authenticator for MN-HA MH protection (MUST) and ESP for MN-HA tunnel protection (SHOULD?).  BU packet sending/receiving would be simplified, as e.g. the new CoA could be the source address of the BU packet, with no additional IPv6 options:

        IPv6 header (source = care-of address, destination = home agent)
        Mobility header
           Binding Update
              Home Address (home address)
              Alternate Care-of Address (care-of address)
              Authenticator (...)

Preferably ALL MIPv6 features would be folded in the Mobility Header (i.e. MPS/MPA/HAAD also in MH), and thus protected by the same MH Authenticator.

=> Do we really want to redo all this again?
I know this is not a technical reply, but we have 
to stop fundamental changes at some stage. This part
has been redone 3 times.

Hesham,

I thought this was the first time the details of using IPsec for MN/HA protection were documented (and according to Francis there is still some detail lacking from the document). Indeed using IPsec is easier said than done :-)

Mobility Header was introduced recently. Has there been consideration (also from the security viewpoint) of whether parts of the Mobile IPv6 spec done via ICMPv6 should be moved to the Mobility Header as well?

Mobile IPv6 spec (especially with the security solutions) is rather complex, it takes considerable time to even read the specs! Anything that would simplify it would be good.

   So is there a plan to make this a requirement?
   
=> yes. I believe it is already somewhere but it must be clearer.

   IMO HA should be in the BU, in general the BU should be as self contained
   as possible.
   
=> I fully agree.

   As the IPsec SA is identified with the SPI, destination address, and the 
   IPsec protocol,

=> this is an illusion and a common confusion. The IPsec SA is identified
by between 0 and 4 addresses (I can give a reference for each of the 5 cases).

   wouldn't it be possible to use a wildcard source address 
   for the HA's incoming SA for each MN?

=> you forget that IKE builds SAs by pairs so this doesn't work for the
reverse way.

   Naturally each MN should have a 
   separate SA, but the SPI field should be enough to multiplex them. If 
   this is possible, then the HA's incoming SA would just ignore the source 
   address, and would thus work from any address (home address, care-of 
   address, new care-of address, etc.).

=> this argument applies to tunnels and in these cases the address is
the outer one (which should not be checked according to RFC 2401 even
if many implementations are too paranoid about this point).

   The outgoing SA could be updated 
   by the BU the same way as is currently done for the MN-HA tunnel SAs.
   
=> unfortunately this kind of integration between IPsec and Mobile IPv6
is only available in some dreams.

   > => the draft 18 mandates IPsec which is available (in IPv6 compliant

   Is it really easier?

=> yes because you have to do the same thing (create a shared secret
and use it for authentication & integrity).

   To me the current method seems rather complex! 

=> it should not... the only problem is that IPsec is not well
known by Mobile IPv6 people (and the opposite).

   Is there any Mobile IPv4 experience we could learn from?
    
=> this experience shows the security should be handled by
the security stuff and not vaguely hacked. So the choice of
IPsec is the right one (the global PKI argument applies only
to general correspondents in an open network).

=> I shouldn't try to save text and explain things 
properly :)
I think what you propose (including MPS, MPA, DHAAD
in the MH) is perfectly logical. But I was suggesting 
that we minimise the re-work so that we can save time. 
If time is not critical in this case then I don't
have a problem with it, but before we go ahead and change
things, let's have a complete proposal and not change it
merely because it would make IPsec processing simpler.
If we don't have a complete proposal (including HA
processing of these messages ...etc) we might end
up going in circles because we only look at one 
defect at a time.

 In your previous mail you wrote:

   How about using MH Authenticator for MN-HA MH protection (MUST) and

The best way is to reuse something with IKE, so why not the real IPsec??

   ESP for MN-HA tunnel protection (SHOULD?).

=> MUST (or forget security). So you have to play with IPsec.

   BU packet sending/receiving would be simplified, as

=> there is no real interest to simplify it. The current spec works
as soon as there is a SA pair, what you propose is dedicated security
stuff which is always harder to implement (new code) and to make really
secure.

   Preferably ALL MIPv6 features would be folded in the Mobility
   Header (i.e. MPS/MPA/HAAD also in MH), and thus protected by the same
   MH Authenticator.
   
=> IMHO some of these features should be dropped...
And there is a strong opinion here (initiated by Jari T. Malinen and
shared by all of us at the IPv6 ETSI plugtest) that the protection
by IPsec MUST be supported (note that support != use).
The MH Authenticator is not the issue: the problem is how the shared
secret is safely built.

So this would work if the MN-HA signaling would be carried within the MN-HA ESP tunnel (the new CoA would be the source address of the outer IPv6 header)? The tunnel is needed for HoTI/HoT protection anyway, and could be used to protect MN-HA signaling as well. Or is there some problem with this?

But this is required in your draft for MN-HA tunnel already (requirements in section 6)? Also, the operations in sections 8.x require some level of IPsec and Mobile IPv6 integration as well, or not?

2. Section 3.1:
   Whenever the Agent Advertisement contains the Challenge extension, if
   the mobile node does not have a security association with the Foreign
   Agent, then it MUST include the Challenge value in a Mobile-Foreign
   Challenge extension to the Registration Request message.  If, on
   the other hand, the mobile node does have a security association
   with the foreign agent, it SHOULD include the Challenge value in its
   Registration Request message.

   Why the "SHOULD"? What breaks if it doesn't include it?
   One would naively assume that it is has a MN-FA SA that there is
   no need for the challenge.

Since there is no mechanism for Replay Protection between the MN and the
Foreign Agent,
My understanding is that the MN-FA Challenge extension provides this
mechanism in addition 
to the AAA authentication.

Having said that, I believe the MN MUST always include the MN-FA Challenge
extension
regardless if the MN has a security association with the Foreign Agent or
not.
However, the wisdom behind making it SHOULD in the case when the MN does
have a 
security association with the Foreign Agent is quite clear.!! "Backward
Compatibility"

What if we have a MN out there which does not understand MN-FA Challenge
extension and at
the same time is ONLY RFC2002 compliant. Meaning, it has a security
association with the 
Foreign Agent. If we make it a MUST this MN is no longer eligible to receive
service. 
On the other hand, If we remove SHOULD all together, we lose the benefit of
Replay Protection 
mechanism for those MN which has a security association with the Foreign
Agent and at the 
same time understand MN-FA Challenge extension. "Also forward compatibility
when we have a 
mechanism to dynamically establish a security association between the MN and
the Foreign Agent

IMO HA should be in the BU, in general the BU should be as self contained
as possible.

As the IPsec SA is identified with the SPI, destination address, and the 
IPsec protocol, wouldn't it be possible to use a wildcard source address 
for the HA's incoming SA for each MN? Naturally each MN should have a 
separate SA, but the SPI field should be enough to multiplex them. If 
this is possible, then the HA's incoming SA would just ignore the source 
address, and would thus work from any address (home address, care-of 
address, new care-of address, etc.). The outgoing SA could be updated 
by the BU the same way as is currently done for the MN-HA tunnel SAs.

Is it really easier? To me the current method seems rather complex! 
Is there any Mobile IPv4 experience we could learn from?

   On your draft "Using IPsec to Protect Mobie IPv6 Signaling between Mobile
   Nodes and Home Agents,
   
   7.2.4 Payload Packets
   
          mobile node SPD OUT:
            - IF interface = tunnel to home agent & source = home address &
                 destination = any & proto = any
              THEN USE SA7
          ...
   
   When the MN register with the HA with the S-flag set to 0, the HA creates 
   multiple Binding Cache entries, one for each of possibly several home 
   addresses.  Am I correct, that each home address will require a separate
   mobile node SPD OUT/IN policy, similarly for the SAD?
   

=> if the SPD doesn't support address sets, a set of entries is needed.
You are right.

   Another question I have is that when the prefix is changed, the home address
   will change which will affect the IPSec SPD and SAD.  How does IPSec know
   the Prefix is changed w/o special handshaking mechanism with MIPv6?  
   
=> this is not a Mobile IPv6 issue but a general issue for IPv6 renumbering:
if there are explicit addresses in the policy, the policy must be updated
when a prefix is changed... Fortunately renumbering is both a rare and
a medium term (i.e., in days or weeks) event.

Regards

Francis.Dupont@enst-bretagne.fr

PS: RFC 3041 is a more important issue in this case, but again this
is a IPv6 problem, not a mobility one.

4. If there are multiple FAs on the visited link, is the assumption
   that the MN needs to track which FAs have issued which challenge?
   If so it would make sense to make this clear.

This absolutely very obvious. 
Do we mention any where else that the MN must keep track with all FAs which
support Reverse 
Tunneling. I mean this absolutely obvious and no further clarification is
needed. The whole RFC 
talks about a MN and A FA.

Ahmad

The UID exchanged in a BRR and its resulting BU doesn't appear to add any value. 

The proposed description of its use, as a response to issue #59, is below. 

6.2.4 new text:

 The Unique Identifier option is valid only in Binding Refresh
 Request, and Binding Update messages.  The Unique Identifier field
 contains a 16-bit value that serves to uniquely identify a Binding
 Refresh Request among those sent by this Source Address, and to
 allow the Binding Update to identify the specific Binding Refresh
 Request to which it responds.

I cannot see how a CN or MN can benefit from having the UID. Consider what happens.

The CN will persist with its BRR until it gets a BU or reaches it's retry limit. If the MN receives a duplicate BRR, it has no way of knowing whether it received it because the BU it just sent got lost or collided with this new BRR. So it will send a further BU. Therefore it doesn't care whether the BRR was a duplicate or not; its behaviour will be the same either way, so the UID doesn't help the MN. At the CN, it will be operating some local policy that causes it to send BRRs for a particular binding. Presumably, when a BU for such a binding arrives, the policy will cause it to cease sending a BRR. If a BU doesn't arrive, it will reach its retry limit and cease sending the BRR. The CN already has a mechanism for associating an unsolicited BU with an existing binding, so the UID doesn't appear to help the CN. 

What's it for? Can we remove it?

Kevin.

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

   This seems suboptimal. If the reply is lost between the FA and MN
   then the MN can't send a new request until it has received a new
   agent advertisement.  Why not have the "keep N+1 challege values"
   apply to the values sent in both advertisements and replies? 


Yes, we are trying to optimize the solution. No one ever said it is perfect.
It is possible that the RRP message is getting lost and not received by the
Mobile Node. 
The assumption that the RRP is going to be lost and why to keep track with 
the Challenge is quite a broader question and issue than MIP itself. 
The suggestion here is that UDP is not reliable at all! If so why to bother
keeping track of anything sent in RRP message or anything using UDP.

I am in favor of continue tracking N+1 unless a convincing argument proves
otherwise.

Regards,
Ahmad

5. Section 3.2
   "attempting to replay a previous advertisement and authentication.  If
   the challenge extension is needed and does not exist, the Foreign"
   What does "needed" mean here? That the FA has a policy knob whether
   or not it is needed? Or something else?

Yes, let us read the whole paragraph as in section 3.2. to understand the
policy:

"   Upon receipt of the Registration Request, if the Foreign Agent has
   issued a Challenge as part of its Agent Advertisements, and it
   does not have a security association with the mobile node, then
   the Foreign Agent SHOULD check that the Mobile-Foreign Challenge
   extension exists, and that it contains a challenge value previously
   unused by the Mobile Node.  This ensures that the mobile node is not
   attempting to replay a previous advertisement and authentication.  If
   the challenge extension is needed and does not exist, the Foreign
   Agent MUST send a Registration Reply to the mobile node with the Code
   value MISSING_CHALLENGE.
"

Restrictions, or conditions, or Policy:
1. If the FA has issued a Challenge, in other words, it supports the MN-FA
Challenge, 
2. If the FA does not have a security association with the MN,
3. If the FA receives a RRQ from this MN, 

The Foreign Agent SHOULD check the presence of MN-FA Challenge extension.
However, I suggest changing this to a "MUST". 

Because, this "MUST" is applicable ONLY with the above three conditions.
" No problem with the FA backward compatibility nor with Forward
compatibility
related to dynamically establishing a SA between the MN and the FA"  

Also, to be consistent with the restrictions on the MN, that it 
MUST include MN-FA Challenge extension when it does not have a 
security association with the FA.

Regards,
Ahmad

8. "   pending registration request list [7].  Also in this case, the
   Foreign Agent MUST reject any Registration Reply message coming from
   the Home Agent that does not also include the Challenge Extension
   with the same Challenge Value that was included in the Registration
   Request.  The Foreign Agent MUST send the rejected Registration"
   
   This MUST seems to imply that a FA implementing this specification
   is not allowed to interoperate with a HA which does not implement
   this specification. Did I get that right?

This portion is absolutely part of RFC3012 which has been a standard since
November
2000. Although, I agree with this point, However, it is too late too little.
This point MUST have been raised before RFC3012 became a standard.
If this issue created a backward compatibility with HAs which existed before
November 2000, then changing it now, WOULD creates a mega backward
compatibility with existing FAs.

The best argument is: Not many HAs have been deployed before November 2000. 
Therefore, it is much safer to keep the text as is.

Ahmad

3. Section 3.1 doesn't specify what the MN should do when it receives
   a STALE_CHALLENGE. 
   It also doesn't specify whether the MN should extract a new
   challenge value from a registration reply which has an error in it.


I think this RFC does not introduce a whole new protocol. In light of RFC
3344 (3220, 2002)
Mobility agents are supposed to periodically advertise their presence. As a
matter of fact, 
it makes it hard for the MN to miss all of these advertisement which may
developed the 
Stale-Challenge scenario.
Also, Mobility Agents (FA) include the MN-FA Challenge extension with new
Challenge 
in these periodic advertisement. The MN can choose one of these.

Or, RFC 3344 (3220,2002) also, provides a mechanism for the MN to solicit a
new challenge 
by sending an agent solicitation message as per section 2.2 and 2.3 in RFC
3344.

Furthermore, In section 3.1. it clearly states what the MN could do when
getting a RRP message
with an UNKNOWN_CHALLENGE. Stale-Challenge is very similar.

I really do not see the need to mention any thing extra in this regard.

Regards,
Ahmad

6. The section doesn't talk about what happens when the reply is
   lost between the FA and MN.

RFC3344 (3220, 2002) does not talk about it either.

9. It seems odd that the Mobile-Foreign challenge is carried between
   the FA and HA. In fact, its use there seems to be different in that
   it seems to be a cookie used to reject bogus registration replies
   from the HA. This odd use then results in having the FA be required
   to replace the challenge it receives from the HA as specified in
   3.3. If there is need for a cookie/challenge between FA and HA,
   that seems to be completely separate from the MN-FA challenge.

I think the same argument of ISSUE No. 8 can be made here too.
This is an existing text in RFC3012 and it will cause a lot of 
backward compatibility issues changing it. 

Regards,
Ahmad

10. Section 3.4

    The section doesn't specify what checks the HA does on the received
    registration request; it just specifies what it needs to put in
    the reply. 

In other words, this RFC does not introduce any extra checking on the
received RRQ message
other than recognizing the MN-FA Challenge extension and what already exist
in all other 
related standards, especially RFC 3344 (3220, 2002).

I do not see any problem with this.

Regards,
Ahmad

11.    Since the extension type for the Challenge extension is within the
   range 128-255, the Home Agent MUST process such a Registration
   Request even if it does not recognize the Challenge extension [7].
   In this case, the Home Agent will send a Registration Reply to the
   Foreign Agent that does not include the Challenge extension.

   I fail to see the utility of sending a reply back without a challenge 
   since the FA is required to reject the reply.

The same argument of ISSUE 8 & 9 can be made here too.

Ahmad

   So this would work if the MN-HA signaling would be carried within
   the MN-HA ESP tunnel

=> this cannot work because the MN-HA signaling establishes the tunnel.
   
   But this is required in your draft for MN-HA tunnel already

=> no, the API is for updating the addresses of SAs, including
by a create/delete (aka rekeying in IPsec terminology).

  Also, the operations in sections 8.x require some level of IPsec and Mobile
  IPv6 integration as well, or not?
   
=> there are different levels of integration, you'd like to jump to the
highest one. Of course, we require the lowest one and expect to get more.

I concur with this. It seems that EAP can not be encapsulated using 
Mobile IP. 802.1X does it at the frame level and HTTP/SIP at the 
application level.
It seems to be fair to say that network-initiated challange-response can 
not be provided with this document.
That makes me to conclude why do we need RFC3012bis?

Editorial comment: RFC numbers for MIPv4 and RADIUS need to be updated.

13. Section 8
    The concatentation of fields for MD5 include "length" and "SPI"
    but it isn't clear to me how many bits of length and SPI are fed
    in since these two fields are not fields in the protocol itself as
    I understand it.

If we read the whole thing it becomes clearer.
"

   To compute the authenticator, apply MD5 [10] computed on the
   following data, in the order shown:

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

   where the Type, Length, SPI, and possibly Subtype, are the fields
   of the authentication extension in use.  
"

These are the fields of the authentication extension specified in section 5.

      Subtype         a number assigned to identify the kind of
                      endpoints or the other characteristics of the
                      particular authentication strategy

      Length          4 plus the number of bytes in the Authenticator;
                      MUST be at least 20.

      SPI             Security Parameters Index

      Authenticator   The variable length Authenticator field

   In this document, only one subtype is defined:

      1               Mobile-AAA Authentication subtype (see section 6)
"

This tells us that the length field is two bytes. The SPI field is 4 bytes.

I read this draft, I found it very good. It clearly points out the 
impossible scenarios in FMIPv6 even for the only wireless link for which 
we thought it was applicable.
Great work Pete!

James,

Network initiated side of FMIP protocols depend on access routers receiving
such triggers. Unless all link-layers are already defining how these
triggers
are delivered from access points to access routers, I think we have a gap
in the protocol design.

Alper,

I've been struggling to keep up here, but isn't
that rather orthogonal to the job of FMIP? That is,
even if there were a hole here, wouldn't it be
better to consider that outside of the scope of
mobile IP?

14. Section 12 
   Whenever a Foreign Agent updates a field of the Registration Reply
   (as suggested in section 3.2), it invalidates the authentication
   data supplied by the Home Agent in the Mobile-Home Authentication
   extension to the Registration Reply.  Thus, this opens up a security
   exposure whereby a node might try to supply a bogus Registration
   Reply to a mobile node that causes the mobile node to act as if its
   Registration Reply were rejected.  This might happen when, in fact, a
   Registration Reply showing acceptance of the registration might soon
   be received by the mobile node.

   The section reference should be 3.3.
<<Ahmad>> agreed.

   More importantly, is there no way to ameliorate this?
   It seems like a serious technical definiciency.

<<Ahmad>>
I think this paragraph needs to be modified. It is somewhat confusing and I
am not sure
if it is accurate.

In section 3.3., the FA inserts the MN-FA Challenge extension which is after
the MN-HA
authentication extension. This does not invalidate the authentication data
supplied by 
the Home Agent in the Mobile-Home Authentication extension in the
Registration Reply.

On the other hand, If a Registration Reply with error code is generated by
the Foreign
Agent, Only this scenario is vulnerable to bogus attack. More explanation in
the following example:

1. A MN1 sends a RRQ1 message to FA1 with challenge FAC1.
2. FA1 process the RRQ1 and relay the RRQ1 to the specified HA1.
3. FA1 starts a timer to receive a RRP1 message from HA1.
   3.1. Now: there is a possibility of a malicious node CN2 which has
captured
        the information from the RRQ to build a RRPx message and send it to
        MN1 with an FA generated error code "ONLY FA error code may work
here"

   3.2. If CN2 is able to build and send this RRPx message before the MN1
receives 
        a RRP1 from FA1, there a possibility that MN1 will think its
Registration
        Request has been denied by FA1. Although, MN1 will receive RRP1
later on, but
        it is too, late.

4. This only happens if there is no Security Association between MN1 and
FA1.

With this limitation in mind, I suggest this paragraph be replaced by the
following:
"
   Whenever a Foreign Agent updates a field of the Registration Reply
   (as suggested in section 3.3), it does not invalidate the authentication
   data supplied by the Home Agent in the Mobile-Home Authentication
   extension to the Registration Reply.  However, if there is no security 
   association between the mobile node and the Foreign Agent, a malicious
   node might try to supply a bogus Registration Reply to a mobile node 
   that causes the mobile node to act as if its Registration Reply has been 
   rejected by the Foreign Agent. This might happen when, in fact, a
Registration 
   Reply showing acceptance of the registration might soon be received by 
   the mobile node.
"

The original paragraph itself hint to a possible solution:
Ether the Mobile Node wait for a RRP message with the same ID as its RRQ
message
with a code generated by its Home Agent, or reissue a new RRQ message.

Regards,
Ahmad

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

   How can it be avoided?
   There doesn't seem to be a CHAP_SPI_HMAC_MD5 defined.

It seems a good idea. 
Why not defining this as one of the reserved SPI value.

Regards,
Ahmad

89 and 93 are fine. the text in issue 111 should say

"The Upper-Layer
Packet Length field in the pseudo-header MUST be set to the
the total length of the Mobility Header"

instead of 

"The Upper-Layer
Packet Length field in the pseudo-header MUST be set to the
value of the Header Len field from the Mobility Header, multiplied
by eight."

because the Header Len does not include the first 8 octets 
(issue 93).

it is minor.

-Chairs.

12. Section 5 introduces a subtype but there is no IANA considerations
    mention of this and the rules for assigning new subtype values.

Agreed.
I wonder how this passed in the first time (RFC3012).

-Chairs.


16.    -  Foreign agent recommended to include a Challenge in every
       Registration Reply, so that mobile node can re-register without
       waiting for an Advertisement.
       With the side effect of opening up a security hole - bogus
       registration replies must be accepted by the MN.


I do not think the issue here is to include a new challenge in a
Registration Reply 
with error code from the FA or not. The issue is the security hole which is
admitted by this RFC.

It is the choice of those who choose to implement this RFC, either:
1. To secure the link between the MN and the FA, e.g. 3GPP2, or
2. Have a preconfigured SA between the MN and the FA, it sounds very ODD, 
   BUT that was the assumption of RFC 2002, or
3. To wait until a way to dynamically establish a Security Association 
   between the MN and any visited FA emerged. "Dynamic Key Distribution"

Therefore, keeping this as part of the standard is a good thing for the
future.

Regards,
Ahmad

Hi Mr. McCann, have browsed the draft. It is well written,
altough still very general. I my view there can be only one
handoff, all the layers that interact with the infrastructure
would need to complete their respective handoff together.
At the same time the protocols would have to designed such that
the layers are cleanly seperated. The handoff protocol should
be defined at L3 and then would be adapted to each type of
link (ala IP and Ehernet via ARP).

Hi, Behcet,

Thanks.

I would be careful using the word "impossible"; it's just a question
of how much firmware you want to re-write.  Also, it may be the case
that some cards do support the required functionality for Anticipated;
I have not done a survey to find out.

For Tunnel-based, I think there is just a bit more L2 security
standardization work that needs to take place in the IEEE.

-Pete

From FMIP perspective, it is a requirement that
an access router can receive notifications for
certain link-layer events. The protocol doesn't work
in the absence of this capability. So, as we are developing
a protocol, we have to make sure its requirements can
be satisfied, and people can implement it and run it
today. If we realize that this requirement is already satisfied
by existing mechanisms, then we are fine. If not, we might have
to step in and fill this gap, imo. How can we be finished
designing a protocol if one of its dependencies is unfulfilled?

OK, this doesn't necessarily mean that the work has to
be done in Mobile IP WG. But at least we have to make sure
it's done somewhere. Otherwise we cannot complete this
Mobile IP task.

Hi, Subrata,

Thanks for your comments.  I agree with you mainly, but I question how
much of the "adaptation" can be done in the IETF, especially if it
involves new message elements inside 802.11 frames.  I think that can
only be done in the IEEE.  It may be the case that no new work is
needed in the IETF, and that existing Mobile IP messages suffice.

-Pete

Yes, I am very  much aware of that.  There are some minor
changes that  can be made with IETF RFC's, but the major
part of the work has to be done in IEEE. Although, I would
say blessing from IETF would certainly go a long way.

Alper,

I agree 100% and I would urge you, Behcet, and anybody else interested to pursue
this if you think it is important and have time. My comments were not meant to
discourage continued work on this approach, just to point out the obstacles that
have arisen. The only option I can see for this is that the work continue in
some wireless/mobility related WG, where the value of having an abstraction of
wireless link characteristics is appreciated.

   Well, it seems to me that there are serveral
   ways to work around this for the time being. For
   one, this only affects network triggered moves,
   and for two this isn't an issue if the AP and AR
   are colocated. Given this, it doesn't strike as
   a huge problem to move FMIP forward without
   addressing transport of L2 triggers across a
   wire. If that proves to be beneficial, we could
   always survey the landscape for suitable
   existing protocol or invent a new one at that time.

Hi Jim,
  I have been arguing that Mobile IP WG is the place, since it seems 
that only FMIPv6 needs such a thing.

Assuming AP and AR are co-located takes away good chunk
of deployment cases. And limiting the protocol to mobile
initiated voids a considerable portion of the protocol
work. Of course we can find a combination of protocol
and deployment scenario that doesn't require transport
of L2 triggers, but that would be too limiting.

Pete,

Excellent job, good work. Your draft does a good job pointing out the gaps
between theory and reality in the fast handover work.

A few comments.

            jak

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

Overall comment: One approach that was not considered, because it is not in
draft 04,  is to have the mobile node initiate the tunnel after handoff. This
does not have as good performance characteristics as the two techniques
described in draft 04, but I believe there should be no barriers in principle to
this, unlike the techniques described in draft 04. We've done some experimental
work in this area, and, modulo the packet drops due to the L2 handover time, the
performance is as almost as good as AP tunnel initiation.

Specfic comments:

Section 1 paragraph 1: "disconnects from one point of attachment" ->
"disconnects from one point of attachment in one subnet"
"new point of attachment" -> "new point of attachment in a new subnet"

Section 2. ESS definition suggests an IP subnet. Would there be any leverage
gained by recommending (via a Best Current Practices RFC) that network operators
configure their networks with such an overlap? Would this gain any signaling
advantage at the link layer that would allow use of anticpated or tunneled
handover in a better way?

IAPP is mentioned later on in the document without being mentioned in the
definitions.

Section 3: Probably ought to mention that this section discusses 802.11
infrastructure mode deployment only. There has been some work done on Mobile IP
handover with 802.11 in infrastructureless mode.

Section 4. pg. 5 last paragraph: It is unclear here whether the trust
relationship is between the MN and an AP or between APs.

Section 4. pg. 6 3rd paragraph: "local implementation decisions" -> "
properietary algorithms in the NIC card firmware"

Section 4 pg. 6 last paragraph: The MN can do the AP link layer id to AR IP
address mapping if it is running CARD.

Also, parallel sending of PrxyRtAdv with HI/HaCK is probably not such a good
idea (althrough recommended in the draft) in case DAD fails on the new subnet.

Section 4. pg. 7 1st paragraph: The FBack is sent on the old and new links,
because the MN may have moved.

Section 4 pg. 7 2nd paragraph: "permission from the host" -> "allowing control
to pass back to the IP layer"

Section 4 pg. 7 3rd paragraph: "such an exchange" -> " the
SolPrxyRtAdv/PrxyRtAdv exchange"
"connection to oAR" -> "connection to the old access point"
following "nAR" -> "new access point"

Section 7: There is a general issue with the 802.11 MAC layer that affects both
protocols. The MAC address is fully spoofable, thus it is impossible to achieve
true MAC layer security.

Section 7. pg 8. 2nd paragraph: Would it be possible for the 802.11 committe to
define a new Authentication method type that would allow some kind of fast
reauthentication, instead of requiring 802.1x reauthentication? This would
actually benefit both protocols.

As I pointed out in my response to Basavaraj Patil's recommendation
on this topic for Mobile IPv6, it is not forbidden in FMIPv6 for the MN
to include NCoA. This may need to be mentioned in the draft.

I thought we had fixed the lengths of various cryptographic
entities already in draft 18, but apparently not... Kbu really
needs to be 20 bytes, because it is used as the key in the MAC
/ SHA1 function which requires a 20 byte key.

Access control is only one possibility. Accounting is related to
that, but not quite the same thing. There may be other uses, too,
I believe. The rfc uses the words 'visiting policies'.

Per RFC3344 (Section 3.1, bullet 2), the MN is supposed to (SHOULD) 
register with *one* of the FA's on the link, if it receives a mobility 
agent advertisement with the 'R' bit set . The implications, although not 
spelled out, would be that:

	.. It is enough to register with one FA, even when multiple FAs
	   and other non-FA routers are present

	.. If this is used to implement access control, it is up to the
	   FA the registration goes through to communicate with other FAs
	   and routers on the link, to implement this properly. The
	   mechanism is not specified.

	.. If other routers are not implementing access control, it is
	   indeed possible to get around this.

I believe the way this is specified in 3344 is good; it codifies the way
things should work with respect to mobile-ip, but does not go into
specifying mechanisms that are not directly mobility related, e.g.
communication of access control or other mechanisms between routers.


	Regards,

		Henrik

Hi Pete,

Thank you for this very good analysis...

Few comments/questions...


When is "association" used vs "re-association"? What does
the spec say about this? Note that Tunnel-based handover
relies on a piece of information that is only available on
"re-association", but not "association". 

In the text, you are referring to L2-TT and L2-ST, which
are acronyms used in this draft: 
draft-manyfolks-l2-mobilereq-02.txt.
You might want to provide a reference to it.

Also you can find a proposed AP-AR protocol here for
transporting L2 triggers:
draft-yegin-l2-triggers-00.txt

And later there was a mention of CAR protocols. 
Section 4.2.2. of draft-gwon-mobileip-efw-fmipv6-00.txt
is an example of such protocol... I'm providing these
as pointers that you might want to consider including
in the reference section...

  "Even for Anticipated handovers, these flaws must be 
   fixed to allow secure handovers within the same subnet.  "

Does the intra-subnet handover really relate to FMIP here?

"If the proper L2 security can be obtained, we recommend a Tunnel-
   based handover be initiated due to its superior performance. "

I couldn't see where this conclusion was drawn from in this text.

Thanks.

alper

I think this is a job half-done. I don't think even forcing a host to
register
with the FA has anything to do with Mobile IP. The FA is simply
providing fowarding service, just like any standard router would do.
It really doesn't matter if the IP packets have another IP packets inside
and the host is doing some magic with them.

It is true that continuous tunnel traffic would compress better
than an occasional BU by itself. However, the compression applies
only to the outer IP header. And since we don't have that in the
pure BU case at all, the end result is that the tunnel case will
continue at least as much bytes as the pure BU.

By the way, I think ROHC is actually able to have different
contexts for different traffic flows. This means that Payload
BU Payload BU Payload BU .... compresses as well as Payload Payload
Payload ... BU BU BU ... So even the transport mode BUs are likely
to compress at least a little.

To the extent that a visited network may only wish to provide mobility
support to authenticated and registered nodes, I'd say that this *is*
relevant to mobile ip. And I agree that the job is only half done (if
even that), but I think that it's perfectly fine that the mobile ip spec
didn't go further :-).

hi all,
   consider a scenario.  MN's HAis down. MN issues a DHAAD request. some
other HA in responds back...
for further secure communication, there should be an association between MN
and that HA...
does that imply that MN needs to have SA with all HAs in its home subnet???

regards
  gaurav

Hi,

In draft-18 it is specified that "HomeRtrAdvInterval" is 3,600 seconds.
That means the RA's in the Home link should be sent every 3,600 secs. But
for Mobile IPv6 specified value for "MaxRtrAdvInterval" is only 1.5 secs.
And you have said that - "MaxRtrAdvInterval is the maximum value for
HomeRtrAdvInterval". Do we need to change any of those values ?

It is the Home Router Advertisement Interval. I.e., the interval at which
Router Advertisements are sent on the home network. Yes, it is a constant
value
based on the configuration of the home agent.

Yes, it could be conveyed through that option.

In section 7.5, MaxRtrAdvInterval is defined.

Yes, this is true, and this is a problem. The MPAs should be sent
periodically,
but not nearly that often. I will address this in another, follow-up
e-mail.

>
> 4) How MaxRtrAdvInterval is similar to MAX_PFX_ADV_DELAY ?

Here is my personal interpretation:

MaxRtrAdvInterval is the maximum amount of time that the Home Agent should
wait
in between sending Router Advertisements on the home link.
MAX_PFX_ADV_DELAY is
the maximum amount of time it is estimated that prefix advertisements will
be
delayed in transit. MaxRtrAdvInterval is more related to the
characteristics of
the network, as in how often prefixes might change, how likely it is for a
node
to spontaneously turn on or lose its prefix information, etc.
MAX_PFX_ADV_DELAY, on the other hand, is solely related to the latency,
distances between nodes, and number of gateways in the network.

This is unrelated to the question you asked above, about what MPAs should
use,
which I will write another e-mail about as promised.

No, the HomeRtrAdvInterval is the amount of time between RAs. The
MaxRtrAdvInterval is the maximum value for HomeRtrAdvInterval.

   one of the SA selectors is the home address. if the selectors 
   dont match, the packet is dropped.
   
=> this is not the proper level of protection we'd like. Using
Michael Thomas' terminology, this is "access-list" security
when we want "cryptographic" security.

DHAAD doesn't have security requirements within the current specification.
Prefix discovery does, however, as does binding updates of course.

In order to find the home agents, we don't need security assocations.
But to use the home agents, we do. If manual keying is used, this implies
that we indeed need SAs with all home agents! If dynamic keying is used,
then the security associations can be created on demand. At the home
agent side, however, there needs to be information about all mobile nodes
on every home agent -- otherwise the policy of which cert/shared secret
is allowed to use which home address isn't available. But the mobile node
doesn't need to be configured with all the home agent addresses and
security associations.

(However, there's an interesting interaction between DHAAD, prefix discovery,
and IPsec policies. I'll post a note about that soon to the list.)

It allways have to do this, at least the low-order 32 bits of the
identification field
From 3344 section 3.6.2.1

"In addition, the low-order 32 bits of the Identification field in the
   Registration Reply MUST be compared to the low-order 32 bits of the
   Identification field in the most recent Registration Request sent to
   the replying agent.  If they do not match, the Reply MUST be silently
   discarded."

But this doesn't prevent the attack you mention above.

Abstract

This document describes a single way to perform both Mobile-IPv4 =20
and 802.11  authentication and key exchanges. Diameter Mobile-IPv4
Application can be used to consumate message sequences for both
802.11 and Mobile IPv4. If 802.11 pre-authentication is not done=20
then it is possible to replace the currently proposed 802.1x=20
Authentication/key-exchange with  Diameter Mobile-IPv4 Application.


1.  Overview and Rationale

In the 802.11 wireless lan [WiFi] network an 802.11 client connects to =
an
802.11 Access Point (AP) at the link layer. 802.11 provides a mechanism =
to=20
achieve handoffs between AP's and the client. A 802.11 client first=20
authenticates and then associates with one AP. When the 802.11 client=20
decides that it is better to move to a second AP, it can do a =20
re-association  with the second AP.=20

Similarly when a Mobile-IPv4 (MIP4) client moves from subnet to subnet, =
it
seeks a Foreign Agent (FA) situated in the subnet and registers with the =
FA.=20
The IP packet sent in Registration Message has the Home IP address as =
the=20
source, and the  destination address can be the FA's IP address or the =
"All=20
Mobility Agents" multicast address 224.0.0.11.  The FA then responds =
with=20
Registration Reply message. The Registration Message also includes=20
Authentication Extensions. A significant hurdle in deployment of MIPv4 =
has=20
been the distributon and management of the security association between =
MN-HA,
FA-HA, and MN-FA.  Recently a method, Diameter Mobile IP v4 Application=20
(DIMPA), has been suggested by which all these 3 different keys can be=20
generated dynamically from a single shared secret between the MN and a=20
AAA agent [DIMPA]. This DIMPA provides in addition to its core=20
accounting functionality.

As mentioned in a previous draft [SIMIP], there is substantial overlap=20
between  what 802.11 and MIPv4 do during their respective registration=20
phases. As pointed out in that draft it is possile to nest these =
operations=20
and thus reduce the number of messages that need to be exchnaged between =

the MN and the infrastructre.  The same issues of overlapping work =
between=20
the 802.11i authentication phase and DIMPA registration arises.=20

The situation of non co-located FA is primarily considered here, =
although a=20
discussion of co-located FA is also provided. Here we will only=20
consider 802.11 infrastructure mode networks.=20

2. 802.11 Network Architecture.

A hypothetical IP over 802.11 network is shown in the following figure.=20
The mobile client, MN, can move from subnet X1 to X3 and from AP2 to =
AP3.=20

			[FA1]-[AAAF1]
 			  |       =20
	...	[AP1]-------[X1]-|
[MN]...       	  |		|=09
		[AP2]----		|----[X]----->  [HA]---[AAAH]
 					|=09
		[AP3/FA3]---[X3]-|
                     |
                   [AAAF3]

[MN] - Mobile Node
[FA] - Foreign Agent
[HA] - Home Agent
[AAAH/F] - Home/Foreign AAA Agent
[AP] - Access Point
[X]  - IP Router
...  - 802.11 link=20
---  - 802.3  link

					Figure 1: 802.11 Network with AAA Agents

When the MN moves from AP1 to AP2, it first Authenticates with AP2 and =
then=20
Dissociates with AP1 at the 802.11 link layer.  As the move from AP1 to =
AP2=20
occurs within the same subnet, hence the MN is still served by the same =
FA=20
and the same AAAF. When the MN moves from AP2 to AP3  it is served by a=20
different set of FA and AAAF, FA3 and AAAF3 respectively.

3.  Message Sequence

The following figure  shows the what happens when MN  moves from AP2 to=20
AP3. During the AP1 to AP2 handoff, the MN is in same subnet, hence  =
MIPv4=20
registration is not required, although 802.1x key-exchange is required.
Figure 2 depits the messages exchanged between the MN and the =
infrastructure.
Here the AAAF is assumed  to be  a RADIUS entity in addition to being a=20
DIAMETER [DIM] entity.  This particular figure depicts the situation
when 802.11 pre-authentication is not done.=20

We will first consider the scenario when 802.11 pre-authentication is=20
not done [WiFiTGi]. Then we will discuss the scenario with=20
pre-authentication.

	Figure 2. 802.11 and MIPv4 message sequences in series.

4. No 802.11 Pre-authentication

On the surface it looks like the 802.1x based =
authentication/key-exchange=20
and  DMIPA share a number of common messages.   Both message sequences=20
do authentication of the MN first and then do key exchanges.  So it =
should
be possible to combine both of them into a single message sequence. In a =

previous draft [SIMIP], it was suggested MIPv4 registration messages can =
be=20
carried as Information Elements (IE) in 802.11 Association/Reassociation =
frames. =20
Here the same IE's can be used. DIMPA provides an Attribute Value Pair =
(AVP)=20
called the MIP-MN-AAA-Auth AVP, which identifies the MN's security =
association
with the Home AAA agent (AAAH). The MIP-MN-AAA-Auth AVP is constructed
from the MIPv4 Registration Request containing the  Mobile IP =
Authentication=20
extension with the MN-AAA Authentication subtype [MIPCR,DMIPA]. DIMPA =
constructs
all the MIPv4 keys and distribute them.  So it is a simple incremental =
task for
DIMPA to generate one more key (RC4 40 or 104 bit for TKIP [WiFiTGi]) to =
share=20
between MN an AP. The following figure, Figure 3., shows a message =
sequence=20
for using DIMPA for both 802.11 and MIPv4 authentication and =
key-exchange.

7. Mobile Entity Implications

There are some implications for the different mobile entities involved.

7.1 Implications for MN

The MN should be capable of passing the MIPv4 information to the 802.11=20
driver and vice-versa. At the instant the MN is ready to send an=20
Association Request it should be able to access the MN's Mobile-IPv4=20
attributes. Similarly, when the MN receives an Association Response =
there
should be a mechanism to change the Mobile-IPv4 attributes in MN.=20

7.2 Implications for 802.11 AP

The 802.11 AP should be able to extract/include the MIPv4-802.11 IE's.=20

7.3 Implications for FA

To be added

7.4 Implications for AAAH

Since both DHAAD and prefix discovery use ICMP messages, the
DHAAD response packets from the home agent to the mobile node look exactly
like prefix discovery from the point of view of IPsec. Yet, the
policies for DHAAD and prefix discovery are different (pass and protect,
respectively).

Note that the anycast DHAAD request is not automatically
protected, as the anycast address isn't in the SPD as
we proposed it.

Some ideas on how to deal with this:

- Prefix discovery MUST use (an existing) home address
   and DHAAD MUST use care-of address.

   The home agent MUST verify that it does not
   respond to a prefix discovery request to an address
   which is not a home address. This ensures that the
   SPD prevents prefix information from leaking (since
   it contains all home addresses and ICMP). Any problems
   in making the prefix discovery use home addresses?

   DHAAD goes to care-of address, and is not protected.

- Protect both DHAAD responses and prefix discovery,
   i.e., ICMP is protected to all addresses. Appears
   to require IKE, as otherwise the SAs to all
   possible addresses can't be established.

- ICMP type specific selectors are required.

- Something else, what?

Section 5.3, 7.2.3, and 7.3.3 in draft-ietf-mobileip-mipv6-ha-ipsec-00.txt
indicate that the prefix discovery messages are sent using the mobile
node's home address. This does not match the text in the base MIPv6
document in Section 6.7 which says to use care-of addresses.

The format can easily be changed in 5.3, but does this imply
any modifications to the SPD entries? It seems so. Or should
the MIPv6 draft be changed? Note that if we require IPsec
security to a care-of address, then this implies IKE as
otherwise the SA doesn't exist to the given direction.

A few possible approaches to fix this:

- Adopt the use of home addresses for prefix discovery.
   See also my second issue e-mail about DHAAD
   protection.

- Continue to use care-of addresses, make prefix
   discovery a MAY and whenever prefix discovery is
   implemnted make IKE a MUST.

- Something else, what?

Minor issues:

4.
	The IANA considerations section as formulated in -03 included
    suggestions of numbers to use for interop testing. This has been
    removed, and the whole section rewritten to be clearer and more
    complete.

	|8. IANA Considerations
	|
	|   The numbers for the extensions defined in this I-D should be taken
	|   from the numbering space defined for Mobile IP messages, registration
	|   extensions and error codes defined in RFC 3344 [10].  This draft
	|   proposes one new message, two new extensions and a new error code
	|   that require type numbers and error code value to be assigned by
	|   IANA.  The two new extensions also introduce two new sub-type
	|   numbering spaces to be managed by IANA.
	|
	|   Section 3.1 defines a new Mobile IP extension, the UDP Tunnel Request
	|   Extension.  The type number for this extension should be of type
	|   skippable.  This extension introduces a new sub-type numbering space
	|   where the value 0 has been assigned to this extension.
	|
	|   Section 3.2 defines a new Mobile IP extension, the UDP Tunnel Reply
	|   Extension .  The type value for this extension should be of type non-
	|   skippable.  This extension introduces a new sub-type numbering space
	|   where the value 0 has been assigned to this extension.
	|
	|   Section 3.3 defines a new Mobile IP message, the Tunnel Data message.
	|   The type value for this message should be taken from the numbering
	|   space defined for Mobile IP messages.
	|
	|   Section 3.5 defines a new error code, ERROR_HA_UDP_ENCAP_UNAVAIL:
	|   "Requested UDP tunnel encapsulation unavailable", from the numbering
	|   space for values defined for use with the Code field of Mobile IP
	|   Registration Reply Messages.  This code should be taken from the
	|   subset "Error Codes from the Home Agent".

	    The values for the Next Header field in the MIP Tunnel Data Message
	    (Section 3.3) shall be the same as those used for the Protocol field
	|   of the IP header[2], and requires no new number assignment.


5.
	The references to the base specification for mobile ip has been
    updated to point to RFC3344.

6.
	In the problem description, some language was clarified, and it was
    more clearly pointed out that the nat traversal problem lies in 
    IP-IP tunnelling not providing port numbers for the NAT to use. 

	 1.2 Problem description

	    A basic assumption that Mobile IP [10] makes is that mobile nodes and
	|   foreign agents are uniquely identifiable by a globally routable IP
	|   address.  This assumption breaks down when a mobile node attempts to
	    communicate from behind a NAT.

	    Mobile IP relies on sending traffic from the home network to the
	    mobile node or foreign agent through IP-in-IP tunnelling.  IP nodes
	    which communicate from behind a NAT are reachable only through the
	    NAT's public address(es).  IP-in-IP tunnelling does not generally
	    contain enough information to permit unique translation from the
	    common public address(es) to the particular care-of address of a
	|   mobile node or foreign agent which resides behind the NAT; in
	|   particular there are no TCP/UDP port numbers available for a NAT to
	|   work with.  For this reason, IP-in-IP tunnels cannot in general pass
	|   through a NAT, and Mobile IP will not work across a NAT.

	    Mobile IP's Registration Request and Reply will on the other hand be
	    able to pass through NATs and NAPTs on the mobile node or foreign
	    agent side, as they are UDP datagrams originated from the inside of
	    the NAT or NAPT.  When passing out, they make the NAT set up an
	|   address/port mapping through which the Registration Reply will be
	    able to pass in to the correct recipient.  The current Mobile IP
	    protocol does however not permit a registration where the mobile
	    node's IP source address is not either the CoA, the Home Address, or
	    0.0.0.0.

7.
	An explicit list of the 3 different scenarios handled by the
    proposed mechanism was added to the problem description.

	|   This mechanism will address 3 different scenarios:
	|
	|      -  A mobile node with co-located address behind a NAT; no FA
	|
	|      -  A mobile node registered away with an FA which is behind a NAT
	|
	|      -  A mobile node with co-located address using an FA which demands
	|         that registrations pass through the FA (sets the "R" bit) where
	|         both the mobile node and the FA are behind a NAT
	|

8.
	The rationale for the client taking care to use the same UDP
    source port when re-registering as used the previous time was
    expanded in section 4.4

	|   When the mobile node re-registers without having moved, it SHOULD
	|   take care to use the same source port as was used for the original
	|   registration of the current mobility binding.  Otherwise, while the
	|   home agent would change destination port on acceptance of the new
	|   registration, and the mobile node would presumably start listening on
	|   the new port, the packets in flight from the home agent at the time
	|   of change will be dropped when arriving at the mobile node's old
	|   port.  (This does not mean that the home agent should refuse a
	|   registration request using MIP UDP tunnelling where a new port have
	|   been used, as this might be the result of the NAT dropping state, the
	|   mobile node re-booting, changing interface, etc.)

9.	
	The IPR notification section was rewritten to point to the
    online list of claimed rights.

10.
	An unsaf considerations section (based on
    draft-iab-unsaf-considerations-01) was requested by the IESG,
    written and included:

	|7. UNSAF Considerations
	|
	|   The mechanism described in this document is not an "UNilateral Self-
	|   Address Fixing" (UNSAF) mechanism.  Although the mobile node makes no
	|   attempt to determine or use the NAT translated address, the mobile
	|   node through the registration process does attempt to keep the NAT
	|   mapping alive through refresh messages.  This section attempts to
	|   address issues that may be raised through this usage through the
	|   framework of the unsaf considerations IAB document [14].
	|
	|      1.  Precise definition.
	|          This proposal extends the Mobile IP v4 registration process to
	|          work across intervening NATs.  The Home Agent detects the
	|          presence of the NAT by examining the source address in the
	|          packet header and comparing it with the address contained in
	|          the registration message.
	|
	|          The NAT address and port detected by the home agent are not
	|          exported or communicated to any other node anywhere.
	|
	|      2.  Exit strategy.
	|          This mechanism will go out of use as IPv6 and Mobile IP v6 is
	|          deployed, obviating the need for MIPv4 NAT traversal.
	|
	|          It can also be noted that this mechanism makes no changes to
	|          the base MIPv4 protocol which makes it dependent on the
	|          presence of NATs or the current extensions - i.e.  no
	|          additional protocol changes would be needed if NATs were to go
	|          away.
	|
	|      3.  Issues making systems more brittle.
	|          The specific issue which is relevant here is that the
	|          effective care-of address (being the source address in the IP
	|          header received by the HA) is not protected by the Mobile IP
	|          authentication extension, and therefore may be spoofed.  This
	|          is discussed in some detail in Section 6, Security
	|          Considerations.
	|
	|      4.  Requirements for longer term solutions.
	|          The trivial long term solution is a transition to an
	|          environment where NATs are not required.  The most obvious
	|          such environment would be an IPv6 based internet.
	|
	|          In the presence of NATs, an improved solution would require
	|
	|             *  the ability to discover the translations done by each
	|                NAT along the route
	|             *  the ability to validate the authority of each NAT to do
	|                those translations
	|
	|             *  communicating as part of the signed registration request
	|                the address of the NAT closest to the HA, for use as the
	|                effective care-of address from the viewpoint of the HA.
	|
	|             *  configuration of all intermediate NATs to accept only
	|                packets from the neighbour NATs.
	|
	|      5.  Impact on existing, deployed NATs.
	|          One precursor of the mechanism described here has been used
	|          successfully across deployed NATs in Sweden, Germany, England,
	|          Japan and the USA, without necessitating neither adjustments
	|          of the NATs in question, nor adjustment of any protocol
	|          parameters.  At the time of writing, little experience exist
	|          with the exact implementation proposed in this document, but
	|          effort has been put into making this mechanism even more
	|          robust and adaptive than its precursors.
	|
	|          With respect to the base Mobile IP specification, the impact
	|          of this document is that an increased frequency of
	|          registration requests is recommended from a security
	|          perspective when the NAT traversal mechanism is used.
	|

11.
	Clarification of language in section 4.5

	|   A foreign agent using MIP UDP tunnelling to a home agent because the
	|   FA is situated behind a NAT may be configured to encourage reverse
	    tunnelling, or be neutral about it, depending on the characteristics
	    of the NAT.  If the NAT translates all source addresses of outgoing

12.
	The semantics of the Reserved 3 field were unclear, and the
    handling of it unclear. This was clarified in section 3.1 and 3.1.1

	       Reserved 3          Reserved for future use.  MUST be set to 0 on
	|                          sending, MUST be verified as 0 on receipt;
	|                          otherwise the extension must be handled as not
	|                          understood and silently skipped.

    ...
	 3.1.3 Reserved Fields

	    The 'Reserved 1' and 'Reserved 2' fields must be ignored on receipt,
	    while the 'Reserved 3' field must be 0 on receipt, otherwise this
	|   extension MUST be handled as not understood and silently skipped.
	|   This permits future additions to this extension to be made which
	|   either can co-exist with old implementations, or will force a
	|   rejection of the extension from an old implementation.

13.
	Section 4.2 incorrectly said that an AH might be inserted
    between outer IP header and UDP header. Corrected.

	    tunnel exit point.  No change to IP options in the inner header
	    occurs during delivery of the encapsulated datagram through the
	|   tunnel.  Note that the security options of the inner IP header MAY
	|   affect the choice of security options for the encapsulating (outer)
	|   IP header.

14.
	There was no mention in the decapsulation section 4.3 of the
    address verification the HA must do to make sure the outer address
    and ports are valid.

	|   Before decapsulation is actually done, the decapsulating node MUST
	|   verify that the outer IP addresses and UDP port numbers exactly match
	|   the values used for the tunnel, with the exception of tunnels that
	|   are "half bound" (as described in Section 4.11) where the source UDP
	|   port can change.
	|
	|   IP-in-UDP encapsulated traffic is decapsulated simply by stripping
	|   off the outer IP, UDP and MIP header, which leaves the original IP
	|   packet which is forwarded as is.

15.
	In section 4.5, an incorrect statement was made in para. 5 about
    the interface an FA should use to send udp-tunnelled packets to the
    ha. The last section of the para was removed.

16.
	The requirement on HA consistence in the last para of 4.6 was
    modified to say SHOULD instead of MUST. The examples were extended.

	|   The home agent SHOULD be consistent in acknowledging support for UDP
	    tunnelling or not.  A home agent which understands the UDP Tunnel
	    Request Extension and is prepared to respond positively to such a
	|   request SHOULD also respond with a UDP Tunnel Reply Extension
	    containing a declining reply code if use of MIP UDP tunnelling is not
	    indicated for a session.  The mobile node MUST NOT assume such
	    behaviour from the home agent, since the home agent may undergo a
	|   software change with reboot, a policy change or a replacement; and
	|   consequently a change of behaviour.

17.
	In 4.6.1, some of the error cases were very similar, and it was
    not clear how the home agent would distinguish between them.
    Language clarified:

	|   UDP Tunnel Request extension sent by the mobile node (placed before
	|   the MN-HA authentication extension), but 'D' bit in registration
	|   request header not set:

		  The home agent SHOULD send a Registration Reply with the Code
		  field set to 134, "poorly formed Request".

	|   UDP Tunnel Request extension sent by the foreign agent (placed after
	|   the MN-HA authentication extension), but 'D' bit is set:

		  The home agent SHOULD send a Registration Reply with the Code
		  field set to 134, "poorly formed Request".

	|   Reserved 3 field of UDP Tunnel Request extension is nonzero:

		  The home agent SHOULD send a Registration Reply with the Code
		  field set to 134, "poorly formed Request".

	    Encapsulation type requested in UDP Tunnel Request extension is
	|   unsupported:

		  The home agent SHOULD send a Registration Reply with the Code
		  field set to ERROR_HA_UDP_ENCAP_UNAVAIL, "Requested UDP tunnel
		  encapsulation unavailable" defined in Section 3.5.

18.
	It had not been properly clarified who is responsible for
    sending the keepalives in all situation. It was clarified that it is
    the node at the remote udp tunnel endpoint who sends the keepalives
    in all cases.

19.
	It was pointed out that the security benefit of re-registering
    more often than necessary based on the registration lifetime is much
    smaller than originally thought. This led to removal of part of the
    security considerations (6.1.1, last half para), and opened up for
    not using registration requests for keepalive purposes.

20.
	Some clarifications were requested on the threats and handlings
    connnected with tunnels in 'half bound' state

	 6.1.2 Sending a Bogus Keepalive Message

	|   When registering through an FA using a co-located care-of address,
	|   another redirection vulnerability opens up.  Having exchanged
	|   Registration Request/Reply messages with the HA through the FA, the
	|   MN is expected to send the first keepalive message to the HA, thus
	|   finalizing the mobility binding (the binding will remain in a "half
	|   bound" state until the keepalive is received).
	|
	|   Having observed a Registration Request/Reply exchange, an attacker
	|   may send a bogus keepalive message assuming that the mobility binding
	|   is in the "half bound" state.  This opens up a similar redirection
	|   attack as discussed in Section 6.1.1.  Note, however, that the
	|   attacker does not need to be able to modify packets in flight; simply
	|   being able to observe the Registration Request/Reply message exchange
	|   is sufficient to mount the attack.

	    With this in mind, the home agent MUST NOT accept a keepalive message
	|   from a different source IP address than where the Registration
	|   Request came from, as specified in Section 4.6.  This requirement
	|   limits the extent of the attack to redirecting the traffic to a bogus
	|   UDP port, while the IP address must remain the same as in the initial
	|   Registration Request.

	    The only defences against this vulnerability are: (1) to have a short
	    time between re-registrations, which limits the duration of the
	    redirection attack after the attacker has stopped sending bogus
	    keepalive messages, and (2) to minimize the time the binding is in a
	|   "half bound" state by having the mobile node send the first keepalive
	    message immediately after receiving an affirmative registration
	    reply.

21.
	The rationale for the new error code introduced in section 3.5
    was clarified:

	|   This is used by the HA to distinguish the registration denial caused
	|   by an unavailable UDP tunnel encapsulation mode from a denial caused
	|   by unavailable standard tunnel encapsulation requested by use of the
	|   'T' bit together with either 'M' or 'G' bit.

Major issues with the mipv4 nat traversal draft:

Feedback from the working group is needed on the changes in the mipv4
nat traversal draft resulting from comments from the ADs and the IESG.
As changes have been made, updated drafts have been submitted. The
most recent draft is -06, which will be announced shortly. It is also
available at:
 http://www.levkowetz.com/pub/id/draft-ietf-mobileip-nat-traversal-06.txt

The following is a list of the major issues and the resulting changes 
to the draft. The full list of issues and changes can also be found at:
 http://www.levkowetz.com/pub/id/summary-changes-mobileip-nat-traversal-03..06.txt

Please post your comments with the appropriate issue number in the
subject line (instead of simply replying to this email).

Minor changes are being posted separately.

Major issues:

1.
	It was felt that the default time between keepalives (20 seconds) was
    extremely short, and in view of one of the reasons for a short time proving
    false (it is the full registration time, not the time between re-registrations,
    which limit the time a redirection attack works without repeated intervention),
    the default time between keepalives has therefore been adjusted from 20 seconds
    to 110 seconds in section 4.9. This should also to some extent
    alleviate the performance concerns described under issue 3 below. 

	    For each mobility binding which has UDP tunnelling established, the
	|   non-HA endpoint of the Mobile-IP UDP tunnel MUST send a keepalive
	|   packet if no other packet to the HA has been sent in K seconds.  Here
	|   K is a parameter with a default value of 110 seconds.  K may be set
	|   to another value by the HA as described in the UDP tunnelling reply
	|   extension (Section 3.2).

2.
	It was suggested that the keepalive function and the re-registration
    function should be fully separate. The keepalive function and 
    re-registration has thus been separated, removing the use of 
    registration requests for keepalive urposes. This led to changes throughout 
    the draft, including the removal of the 'E' bit in the udp tunnel reply 
    extension. The major changes were in section 4.9 on keepalives, which 
    became simpler and shorter:

	 4.9 Tunnel Keepalive

	    As the existence of the bi-directional UDP tunnel through the NAT is
	    dependent on the NAT keeping state information associated with a
	    session, as described in RFC 2663 [12], and as the NAT may decide
	    that the session has terminated after a certain time, keepalive
	    messages may be needed to keep the tunnel open.  The keepalives
	    should be sent more often than the timeout value used by the NAT.
	    This timeout may be assumed to be a couple of minutes, according to
	    RFC 2663 [12], but it is conceivable that shorter timeouts may exist
	    in some NATs.

	    For this reason the extension used to set up the UDP tunnel has the
	    option of setting the keepalive message interval to another value
	    than the default value, see Section 3.2.

	|   The keepalive message sent MUST consist of a properly UDP
	|   encapsulated ICMP echo request directed to the home agent.

	    For each mobility binding which has UDP tunnelling established, the
	|   non-HA endpoint of the Mobile-IP UDP tunnel MUST send a keepalive
	|   packet if no other packet to the HA has been sent in K seconds.  Here
	|   K is a parameter with a default value of 110 seconds.  K may be set
	|   to another value by the HA as described in the UDP tunnelling reply
	|   extension (Section 3.2).

	|   Except for the case where the mobile node registers with a co-located
	|   address through an FA (see Section 4.11) MIP UDP tunnelling is done
	    using the same ports that have already been used for the registration
	|   request / reply exchange.  The MN or FA will send its first keepalive
	    message at the earliest K seconds after the registration request was
	|   sent.  The same UDP source port MUST be used for the keepalive
	|   messages as was used for the original Registration Messages and for
	|   data messages.
	|
	|   The remote UDP tunnel endpoint MUST use two-way keepalives consisting
	|   of UDP encapsulated ICMP Echo Request/Reply messages.  The rationale
	|   for using two-way keepalives is two-fold:
	|
	|      1.  Two-way keepalives allow the mobile node to detect loss of a
	|          NAT mapping.  Detection of NAT mapping loss in turn allows the
	|          MN to compensate by re-registering and using a shorter
	|          keepalive to avoid loss of NAT mappings in the future.
	|
	|      2.  One-way keepalives actually cause more keepalive traffic
	|          overhead; the keepalive messages have to be sent more
	|          frequently to compensate for occasional loss of keepalive
	|          messages.  In contrast, two-way keepalives are acknowledged,
	|          and retransmissions occur only when a response is not received
	|          for a keepalive request within a reasonable time.
	|


3.
	One suggestion which has been made by Madhavi Chandra during the
    IESG last call, but not accepted into the draft, is to permit
    one-way keepalives. The reason for requireing two-way keepalives,
    and the actions to be taken by the mobile when an expected response
    is missing has been described in more detail in section 4.9 and 4.10

	|   The remote UDP tunnel endpoint MUST use two-way keepalives consisting
	|   of UDP encapsulated ICMP Echo Request/Reply messages.  The rationale
	|   for using two-way keepalives is two-fold:
	|
	|      1.  Two-way keepalives allow the mobile node to detect loss of a
	|          NAT mapping.  Detection of NAT mapping loss in turn allows the
	|          MN to compensate by re-registering and using a shorter
	|          keepalive to avoid loss of NAT mappings in the future.
	|
	|      2.  One-way keepalives actually cause more keepalive traffic
	|          overhead; the keepalive messages have to be sent more
	|          frequently to compensate for occasional loss of keepalive
	|          messages.  In contrast, two-way keepalives are acknowledged,
	|          and retransmissions occur only when a response is not received
	|          for a keepalive request within a reasonable time.
	|
	|4.10 Detecting and compensating for loss of NAT mapping
	|
	|   When a mobile node is using UDP encapsulated ICMP Echo Request/Reply
	|   messages as keepalives, it will have to deal with the possibility
	|   that a NAT mapping is lost by a NAT device.  The crucial thing here
	|   is of course not the loss of the NAT mapping in itself; but rather
	|   that the home agent, in the absence of a Registration Request through
	|   the new mapping, will continue to send traffic to the NAT port
	|   associated with the old mapping.
	|
	|   If the mobile node does not get a reply to its UDP encapsulated ICMP
	|   Echo Request even after a number of retransmissions, and is still
	|   connected to the same router that was used to establish the current
	|   mobility binding, the mobile node SHOULD re-register with the home
	|   agent by sending an Registration Request.  This lets the HA know
	|   about the new NAT mapping and restores connectivity between mobile
	|   node and home agent.
	|
	|   Having established a new mobility binding, the mobile node MAY use a
	|   shorter keepalive interval than before the NAT mapping was lost; in
	|   particular, the mobile node MAY deviate from the keepalive interval
	|   assigned by the home agent.  If the binding loss continues to occur,
	|   the mobile node may shorten the keepalive interval each time it re-
	|   registers, in order to end up with a keepalive interval that is
	|   sufficient to keep the NAT mapping alive.  The strategy used to
	|   arrive at a keepalive interval when a NAT mapping is lost is
	|   implementation dependent.  However, the mobile node MUST NOT use a
	|   keepalive less than 10 seconds.
	|
	|   Note that the above discussion only applies when the mobile node is
	|   re-registering through the same router, and thus presumably through
	|   the same NAT device that lost a NAT mapping earlier.  If the MN moves
	|   and still finds itself behind a NAT, it SHOULD return to its original
	|   keepalive interval (the default value, or as assigned by the home
	|   agent) and it SHOULD NOT do any keepalive interval compensation
	|   unless it discovers a loss of NAT mapping in the new environment.
	|
	|   The home agent MUST NOT attempt to detect or compensate for NAT
	|   binding loss by dynamically changing the keepalive interval assigned
	|   in the Registration Reply; the home agent does not have enough
	|   information to do this reliably and should thus not do it at all.
	|   The mobile node is in a much better position to determine when a NAT
	|   mapping has actually been lost.  Note also that a MN is allowed to
	|   let a NAT mapping expire if the MN no longer needs connectivity.
	|
	|   The discussion above does only in a limited sense apply to a foreign
	|   agent which is situated behind a NAT and using MIP UDP tunnelling.
	|   In this case, it is a matter of permanently configuring the FA to use
	|   a keepalive interval which is lower than the NAT mapping lifetime,
	|   rather than trying to dynamically adapt to the binding lifetimes of
	|   different NATs.

The security considerations section in draft 18 does not describe
why we don't need security for DHAAD and what the security is for
MPS/MPA. This should be added to draft 19 (even if I think we are
in agreement what the security is).

Agree.


As an aside, it would be interesting to recall why
the care-or address was originally specified for prefix discovery.
The only reason I remember is to allow MN bootstraping without
the knowledge of at least one home address.

Agree.  Also, should the draft clarify that HAO an RH2 are
not used in the DHAAD exchange?

A long time ago we agreed in issue 36 that MPS/MPA security
is mandatory and not subject to existence of SAs. This isn't
correctly reflected in draft 18 (apparently because we
missed it). This needs to be fixed in Section 6.7 etc.

Well, If the Mobile Node already received a RRPx message from the attacker,
I assume that the attacker used the correct ID in RRPx. This means that the
Mobile Node already received a RRP message with a matching ID for its RRQ1
message.

Usually, the Mobile Node will react in response to the attacker RRPx. 
Either build a new RRQ message (RRQ2) and send it again and now the MN
tracks the ID of RRP2 not RRP1. In other words, if the Mobile Node
receives RRP1, it will discard it.

However, if MN waits "?? How long??" after receiving a RRP message with
error code from the
FA to check if another RRP with the same ID is coming from the HA, it
probably counter
attack this scenario.

Also, I am not saying that this is the best solution either.

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; data</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; supplied by</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; the Home Agent in the Mobile-Home Authentication extension in the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Registration Reply.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; On the other hand, If a Registration Reply with error code is </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; generated by</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; the Foreign</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; Agent, Only this scenario is vulnerable to bogus attack. More </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; explanation</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; in the following example:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; 1. A MN1 sends a RRQ1 message to FA1 with challenge FAC1.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; 2. FA1 process the RRQ1 and relay the RRQ1 to the specified HA1. 3. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; FA1 starts a timer to receive a RRP1 message from HA1.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 3.1. Now: there is a possibility of a malicious node CN2 </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; which has</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; captured</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the information from the RRQ to build a RRPx </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; message and send </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; it</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; MN1 with an FA generated error code &quot;ONLY FA error code may </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; work</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; here&quot;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 3.2. If CN2 is able to build and send this RRPx message </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; before the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; MN1</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; receives</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; a RRP1 from FA1, there a possibility that MN1 will think its</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Registration</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Request has been denied by FA1. Although, MN1 will receive </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; RRP1</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; later on, but</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; it is too, late.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; 4. This only happens if there is no Security Association </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; between MN1 </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; and</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; FA1.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; With this limitation in mind, I suggest this paragraph be </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; replaced by </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; following:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &quot;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Whenever a Foreign Agent updates a field of the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Registration Reply</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (as suggested in section 3.3), it does not invalidate the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; authentication</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; data supplied by the Home Agent in the Mobile-Home Authentication</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; extension to the Registration Reply.&nbsp; However, if there </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; is no security</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; association between the mobile node and the Foreign </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Agent, a malicious</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; node might try to supply a bogus Registration Reply to a </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; mobile node</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; that causes the mobile node to act as if its </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Registration Reply has</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; been</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; rejected by the Foreign Agent. This might happen when, in fact, a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Registration</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Reply showing acceptance of the registration might soon </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; be received by</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the mobile node.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &quot;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; The original paragraph itself hint to a possible solution: </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Ether the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; Mobile Node wait for a RRP message with the same ID as its RRQ</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; message</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; It allways have to do this, at least the low-order 32 bits of </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; the identification field From 3344 section 3.6.2.1</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &quot;In addition, the low-order 32 bits of the Identification field in the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Registration Reply MUST be compared to the low-order 32 bits of the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Identification field in the most recent Registration </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Request sent to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the replying agent.&nbsp; If they do not match, the Reply MUST </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; be silently</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; discarded.&quot;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Well, If the Mobile Node already received a RRPx message from the attacker,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>I assume that the attacker used the correct ID in RRPx. This means that the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Mobile Node already received a RRP message with a matching ID for its RRQ1 message.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Usually, the Mobile Node will react in response to the attacker RRPx. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Either build a new RRQ message (RRQ2) and send it again and now the MN</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>tracks the ID of RRP2 not RRP1. In other words, if the Mobile Node</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>receives RRP1, it will discard it.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>However, if MN waits &quot;?? How long??&quot; after receiving a RRP message with error code from the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>FA to check if another RRP with the same ID is coming from the HA, it probably counter</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>attack this scenario.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Also, I am not saying that this is the best solution either.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; But this doesn't prevent the attack you mention above.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; /Fredrik</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; with a code generated by its Home Agent, or reissue a new </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; RRQ message. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; Regards, Ahmad</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>

Section 11.2.3 states:

    A node receiving a packet addressed to itself (i.e., one of the
    node's addresses is in the IPv6 destination field) follows the next
    header chain of headers and processes them.  When it encounters
    a Type 2 Routing header during this processing it performs the
    following checks.
    ...
    Once the above checks have been performed, the node swaps the IPv6
    destination field with the Home Address field in the RH, decrements
    segments left, and resubmits the packet to IP for processing the
    next header.
    ...
    The definition of AH requires the sender to calculate the AH
    integrity check value of a routing header in a way as it appears in
    the receiver after it has processed the header.  Since IPsec headers
    follow the Routing Header, any IPsec processing will operate on
    the packet with the home address in the IP destination field and
    segments left being zero.

Section 9.6 states:

    ... The Destination Address in the packet's IPv6 header is set to
        the mobile node's care-of address ...

    ... The Routing header is initialized to contain a single route
        segment, with an Address of the mobile node's home address ...
    ...
    The IP layer will insert the routing header before performing IPsec
    processing.  The IPsec Security Policy Database will be consulted
    based on the IP source address and the final IP destination (which
    will be in the routing header).  The definition of AH ensures that
    the AH calculation is done on the packet in the form it will have on
    the receiver after advancing the routing header.

The first text fragment above indicates that when receiving RH2 traffic,
we end up with the home address in the IPv6 header before IPsec is
processed, and the number of segments left is 0. The second text fragment
doesn't clearly say anything about the order, but it appears like the
sender should create the final RH2 and then run IPsec; there is an
exception in the text for SPD checks but this will not be sufficient.
It is necessary to have the packet in the right form also.

Section 11.2.3 is right, and Section 9.6 should be corrected
accordingly.

Hi, James,

Thanks for your comments.  Replies below.

I think what you are saying is to just use F-BU after reassociation.
This makes a lot of sense to me; it might be the case that the right
scope of the Mobile IP WG is to just define this message and work out
the details of securing it.  Other techniques might be more properly
pursued in the IEEE.

ESS definition says "may consist of one or more IP subnets" which is
true.

Maybe what you are saying is that we need a coordinated assignment of
ESS ID's across all the APs that plan to implement fast handoff to
each other.  Perhaps there should just be one global well-known ESS ID
for all 802.11 public Internet access (or perhaps the broadcast SSID
is good enough).

Anyway, the point is that if we are going to leverage the information
in a Reassociation Request, I think we need to have both APs belong to
the same ESS, and there will likely be more coordation needed between
them and between the associated ARs.  It would be nice if this
coordination were just "hook them up to the same Internet", but a both
of the handoff methods discussed so far require more.

Ok, I will add it.

Could you outline what you think the differences are?  I assume we
would still be talking about Internet access and not ad-hoc routing.

I think we couldn't use IAPP in this case.  I think the scan/beacon
process is somewhat different.

Are you talking about the IAPP IPSec tunnel?  This is definitely
between APs, and the only trust is between APs.  I will try to clarify
this.  It is important to note that this trust/security is independent
of whatever means was used to authenticate the MN.

 > Section 4. pg. 6 3rd paragraph: "local implementation decisions" -> "

True, I think it is most often done in firmware but I believe other
implementations are possible.

 > Section 4 pg. 6 last paragraph: The MN can do the AP link layer id to AR IP

I think you mean Section 5, right?  Here the mapping is done at the
oAR, not the MN.  I don't think CARD applies directly and we need some
other source of data.

That discussion should be held separately on the list, methinks.

Right, I will clarify (assume you mean Section 5).

 > Section 4 pg. 7 2nd paragraph: "permission from the host" -> "allowing control

I think "permission from the host" is more general, your suggested
text is certainly implied by that.  I was trying to say that nothing
on the host (IP stack, device driver, kernel, etc) is involved in the
handoff decision, given certain firmware implementations.

ok

I think there has been some misunderstanding in some of the recent
list discussions on this topic.  From what I understand, once you have
properly authenticated to an AP and developed keying material
(following the in-progress 802.11i spec), subsequent messages are
protected by strong authentication and the link-layer address is used
as an index to selec the proper security association, much as an IP
address/SPI is used in IPSec.  So the MAC address is in fact protected
and there is no way for a bogus STA to insert frames without breaking
the cryptography.

I think both the Mobile IP WG and IEEE need to have a discussion about
this.  I see two main goals, when compared to the current 802.1x
exchange that is being worked on now:

1) Allow for pre-authentication (or fast re-authentication) across
   subnets.  The current 802.1x messages must stay within a subnet or
   VLAN. 
2) Minimize the number of messages sent over-the-air.  Current 802.1x
   would do a from-scratch EAP exchange on every handover, which might
   involve too many messages.

Possible approaches are to use PANA in a pre-authentication style or
leverage IAPP to do context transfer of security credentials.  Bernard
Aboba recently pointed me at his draft on the IAPP approach:
draft-aboba-802-context-02.txt.  While I'm not sure that this
particular approach is being worked in IEEE currently, we should
certainly try to discuss the solution space a bit more.

I guess you meant this:

- Prefix discovery MUST use (an existing) home address
   and DHAAD MUST use care-of address.

   The home agent MUST verify that it does not
   respond to a prefix discovery request to an address
   which is not a home address. This ensures that the
   SPD prevents prefix information from leaking (since
   it contains all home addresses and ICMP). Any problems
   in making the prefix discovery use home addresses?

   DHAAD goes to care-of address, and is not protected.


Agree, that makes sense.

Hi, Alper,

Thanks for your comments --- replies below.

Association should be used when first connecting to an ESS, and
Re-association should be used when connecting to a new AP in the same
ESS.  However, the spec doesn't mandate that you do a Re-association
under these circumstances, and you will get service even if all you do
is Assocation.  In that case you wouldn't be able to execute IAPP
because you wouldn't have the link layer address of the old AP (it is
only included in the Re-association message).

Correct.  Perhaps I will add some text to clarify this.

These terms are actually used and defined in Section 3.2.1 of
draft-ietf-mobileip-fast-mipv6-04.txt.  Perhaps they should be moved
into the terminology section.

Yes, thanks, I had heard about this draft but haven't studied it
closely.  This is definitely the kind of thing that IETF and IEEE
should be working together on.

Thanks, I will look at it.  I currently just reference a WG document
on CAR requirements, I wasn't sure of the status of any of the
individual drafts.

Only indirectly, in that if there is a fix for intra-subnet it might
also fix the inter-subnet problem.  In this case, that happens to be
true, but at the expense of some additional authentication traffic
after reassociation when compared to the intra-subnet case.

You're right, it's not really supported well by the text.  It's my own
opinion that by minimizing the over-the-air messages we can get better
performance, and support faster velocity movement with fewer packet
drops.  I think this has been borne out by experments conducted by
others.  I didn't want to get involved in a deep discussion of that
experimental data but I think it is compelling.

Aagree,  the number of messages need to be exchanged
with or within the infrastructure needs to be reduced -
by avoiding duplication and other means.

Take a look at the  draft draft-goswami-aaa-mipv4-wlan-auth-00.txt.
Where Diameter Mobile IPv4 Application is proposed as an alternative
to 802.1x Auth/Key-Exchange. By doing that all the  4 security
associations needed (MN-HA, MN-FA, FA-HA, MN-AP) can be generated
dynamically together.  It is still a work in progress.

FYI to NENA folks,

New IETF working group that is relevant to IP endpoints within passenger 
vehicles (like airplanes, trains, buses, etc) is on the horizon.

Probably other applications too, but these ones occur to me readily. Impact 
on NENA is support for location information from devices in these scenarios 
(e.g. IP phone calls 911 from a plane, as there is sadly a precedent in 
recent memory to justify such a scenario). Seems that scenario outlined 
will not require any special support from endpoints beyond a 
yet-to-be-defined physical location server architecture, but the NEMO-aware 
network entities should have a mechanism to pass location information to 
the endpoints. The method of passing location information to the endpoints 
is not yet defined, but this should be incorporated when available.

Standards for sending location information to endpoints (e.g. in response 
to a query from the endpoint) most likely come from GeoPriv type folks, or 
other groups they can point us to.

Regards,
Scott

**Please note that the area was listed incorrectly in the
original announcement.**


A new IETF working group has been proposed in the Internet Area.
The IESG has not made any determination as yet.

The following Description was submitted, and is provided for
informational purposes only:

Network Mobility (nemo)
-----------------------

Current Status: Proposed Working Group

Description of Working Group:

The NEMO Working Group is concerned with managing the mobility of an
entire network, viewed as a single unit, which changes its point of
attachment to the Internet and thus its reachability in the topology.
The mobile network is moving as a unit, and includes one or more mobile
routers (MRs) which connect it to the global Internet.

A mobile network is assumed to be a leaf network, i.e. it will not
carry transit traffic. However,it could be multihomed, either with a
single MR that has multiple attachments to the internet, or by using
multiple MRs that attach the Nemo to the Internet.

Initially, the WG will assume that none of the nodes behind the MR will
be aware of the network's mobility, thus the network's movement needs
to be completely transparent to the nodes inside the mobile network.
This assumption will be made to accomodate nodes inside the network
that are not generally aware of mobility.

A basic approach for Nemo is for each Mobile Router to have a Home
Agent, and use bidirectional tunneling between the MR and HA to
preserve session continuity while the MR moves. The MR will acquire a
Care-of-address from its attachment point much like what is done for
Mobile Nodes using Mobile IP. This approach allows nesting of Nemos,
since each MR will appear to its attachment point as a single node.

The WG will take a stepwise approach by standardizing some basic
support based on the bidirectional tunneling approach, and at the same
time study the possible approaches and issues with providing more
optimal routing than can be had with (potentially nested) tunneling.
However, the WG is not chartered to actually standardize a solution to
such route optimization for mobile networks at this point in time.

The WG will work on:

- A threat analysis and security solution for the basic problem
(tunneling between HA and MR)

- A solution to the basic problem for both IPv4 and IPv6.
The solution will allow all nodes in the mobile network to be
reachable via permanent IP addresses, as well as maintain ongoing
sessions as the MR changes its point of attachment within the
topology. This will be done by maintaining a bidirectional tunnel
between the MR and its Home Agent. The WG will investigate reusing
the existing Mobile IPv6 mechanisms for the tunnel management, or
extend it if deemed necessary.

- An informational document which specifies a detailed problem
statement for route optization and looks at various approaches to
solving this problem. This document will look into the issues and
tradeoffs involved in making the network's movement visible to some
nodes, by optionally making them "NEMO aware". The interaction
between route optimization and IP routing will also be described in
this document. Furthermore, security considerations for the various
approaches will also be considered.

The WG will:

- Ensure that solutions will scale and function for the
different mobile network configurations, without requiring
changes to Correspondent Nodes in the Internet. All solutions
will aim at preserving route aggregation within the Internet and
will satisfy an acceptable level of security (a thorough survey
of new threats and an analysis of their severity will be conducted)

- Ensure that various mechanisms defined within other IETF WGs
will be useful for mobile networks. To achieve this, the NEMO WG
will interact with other WGs when needed, and may place requirements
on the protocols developed by those WGs.

The NEMO WG will not:

- consider routing issues inside the mobile network. Existing
routing protocols (including MANET protocols) can be used to
solve these problems.

              Announcement and Call for Papers / Submissions

         Mobile Multimedia Communications Conference (MoMuC) 2003
       The First Interdisciplinary International Conference on Mobile
                             Business and Technology

        "Opening Up New Frontiers in Mobile Business and Technology"
                  6-8 October 2003, Munich, Germany

                    refer to www.momuc.org  or see below



---Extended abstracts of proposals can be submitted 
until February 28th 2003--- 


MoMuC 2003 is the eights in a series of international workshops - Tokyo
in 1994, Bristol in 1995, Princeton in 1996, Seoul in 1997, Berlin in
1998, San Diego in 1999 and Tokyo in 2000 - aimed at stimulating
knowledge exchanges in the emerging and strategically important field of
Mobile Multimedia Communications. 3G, Wireless LAN and systems and
technologies "beyond 3G" have been launched or are under development. 

For the first time in this series the business viewpoint of mobile
technologies will be integrated to complement technological issues.
During the last years it has become increasingly obvious that the
technological push of new wireless technologies will not result in
successful products if the opportunities are not carefully evaluated in
particular from the customer point of view.

MoMuC 2003 is organized by the Center for Digital Technology and
Management (CDTM) of the Ludwig-Maximilians-University and Technical
University of Munich and chaired by Prof. Dr. Jorg Eberspacher and Prof.
Dr. Dres. h.c. Arnold Picot.

MoMuc 2003's goal is to bring together researchers, practitioners and
potential users involved in and affected by emerging wireless
technologies. The workshop targets at experts in multimedia systems and
mobility issues on the technological and business side. The impact of
the workshop is to provide an effective forum for original and
fundamental advances in Mobile Multimedia Systems and business models
and to foster communication among researchers and practitioners working
in a wide variety of scientific areas with a common interest in mobile
multimedia communication. Also we wish to provide a timely forum for
exploratory research contributions, and to promote cross-disciplinary
interactions in an informal setting.

(Originally brought up by Conny Larsson)

Draft 18 has an exponential back-off mechanism to
send BUs at 1 s, 2 s, 4 s, 8 s and so on intervals
until a BA is received or 256 s is reached.

But it also has a rate-limiting procedure to avoid
sending more than 5 BUs at 1 s intervals and then
any number of BUs at 10 s intervals.

These two procedures seem to be in conflict and
may duplicate functionality. The conflict
arises if rate-limiting would allow sending 5 BUs
in 5 seconds, while the exponential back-off would
allow only 3. Could these procedures be combined?
Perhaps exponential back-off would be sufficient
by itself (maybe with a lower maximum time than 256
seconds).

The same applies to return routability messages.

BE rate limitation is as it should be (references
ICMP). BRR rate limitation must be applied, but
there is no indication of what kind of rate
limitation to use. This should be specified.

This seems to be a confusing issue. Let me try and answer it again and give a
more historical motivation (if you skim this, please read the 5
comments/questions at the end):


First, MinRtrAdvInterval and MaxRtrAdvInterval are the two limits in Neighbor
Discovery which govern how often Router Advertisements should be sent by a
router. In Mobile IPv6, these limits are relaxed (i.e. lowered) more than in
usual neighbor discovery, in order to allow Access Routers (and Home Agents)
which serve a mobile node to send RAs quite frequently. This lets the MN use
the RAs as a guide in movement detection.

So MinRtrAdvInterval and MaxRtrAdvInterval are the bounds of how often an RA
should be sent by an Access Router on a link serving Mobile Nodes. The value
ranges from 50 ms - 1.5 s.

					ooo

OK, now that that's clear, let's have a flashback..

Back in their former incarnation, MPAs were called Tunneled Router
Advertisements. So if I say Tunneled Router Advertisement, in today's world,
substitute in "Mobile Prefix Advertisement." At that point in the past, there
were two values (defined in draft-13), which were HomeRtrAdvInterval, and
MAX_PFX_ADV_DELAY, and both were defined as 1,000 seconds.

It was specified that a Tunneled Router Advertisement should be send at least
every HomeRtrAdvInterval (1000s), or whenever solicited. So basically, this
amounts to a MaxRtrAdvInterval for Tunneled Router Advertisements. (Forget what
I said about Min~ and Max~ bounding this value; that was wrong.)

Back in the earlier drafts, MAX_PFX_ADV_DELAY was used by the mobile node to
estimate how often the Tunneled Router Advertisements would be sent out, so
that the MN could know if its home address was going to expire before the next
anticipated tunneled RA, and send a Router Solicitation (now Mobile Prefix
Solicitation) to the Home Agent.

MAX_PFX_ADV_DELAY was also used (as it is now) to compute the offset that
should be used for sending Tunneled Router Advertisements. As I look at this
formula, I can't help but think that this is the wrong value to use;
HomeRtrAdvInterval would be the correct one. Since they were both the same back
then, it didn't matter.

Now, back to the present. Obviously, things were changed quite a bit in
draft-14, and out of that we have the Mobile Prefix Solicitation and
Advertisement. We still use these two values, but HomeRtrAdvInterval was
changed to 10 minutes.

If we update the values for HomeRtrAdvInterval and change its name, and change
the formulae for MAX_SCHEDULE_DELAY and RAND_ADV_DELAY, we can forget about
using a minimum threshold (as I suggested in 15 seconds), since this will be
embodied by these changes.

It would be nice if we could have some input on these formulae. Here are some
proposed changes to synchronize everything and some questions:

- HomeRtrAdvInterval should be renamed, perhaps to MaxMobPfxAdvInterval

- formula for MAX_SCHEDULE_DELAY should use MaxMobPfxAdvInterval instead of
MAX_PFX_ADV_DELAY

- Is there some reason why we need a separate variable, MAX_PFX_ADV_DELAY? It
seems like it should always be equal to MaxMobPfxAdvInterval. Correct? Maybe we
can just get rid of it and the mobile node can use the same value defined for
the latter.

- RAND_ADV_DELAY uses MinRtrAdvInt. But this is for router advertisements at
the home agent. Perhaps we also need to define a MinMobPfxAdvInterval to set
the min bound for MPAs.

- What should the best values for {Max,Min}MobPfxAdvInterval be?



Hope that is a better explanation!

But in the case of co-located care-of address, the access network
*is not* providing any mobility support. It's just providing "IP access".

Hi Jari,

Does this mean that if a MN gets tunneled packet, it still uses
exponential back-off mechanism to send BU's to the CN ? There
is a problem with the new proposal, viz :

If the CN got the BU after say 128 seconds (ACK bit was set), and
then the CN crashed, when it comes back up and interracts with
the MN, it sends packets to the MN's home address which gets
tunneled via the Home Agent. So the MN re-starts RR, but after
successful RR, it is not able to send the BU till another 256 seconds
have passed from the last time a BU was sent.

So I think that for tunneled-packet-receive, the MN should send the
BU to the CN based on rate limiting, not using back-off, since the later
can introduce a lot of delays.

I hope I have not misunderstood anything here :-)

thanks,

- KK

(Originally brought up by Conny Larsson)

Draft 18 has an exponential back-off mechanism to
send BUs at 1 s, 2 s, 4 s, 8 s and so on intervals
until a BA is received or 256 s is reached.

But it also has a rate-limiting procedure to avoid
sending more than 5 BUs at 1 s intervals and then
any number of BUs at 10 s intervals.

These two procedures seem to be in conflict and
may duplicate functionality. The conflict
arises if rate-limiting would allow sending 5 BUs
in 5 seconds, while the exponential back-off would
allow only 3. Could these procedures be combined?
Perhaps exponential back-off would be sufficient
by itself (maybe with a lower maximum time than 256
seconds).

The same applies to return routability messages.

BE rate limitation is as it should be (references
ICMP). BRR rate limitation must be applied, but
there is no indication of what kind of rate
limitation to use. This should be specified.

Hi all,

Regarding Section 11.6.2, the following para is giving me some problems :

      "When a mobile node sends a Binding Update to its home agent
      to register a new primary care-of address (as described in
      Section 11.6.1), the mobile node SHOULD also start a return
      routability procedure to each other node for which an entry exists
       in the mobile node's Binding Update List, as detailed below.  Upon
      successful return routability procedure and after receiving a
      successful Binding Acknowledgement from the Home Agent, a Binding
      Update message is sent to all other nodes.  Thus, other relevant
      nodes are generally kept updated about the mobile node's binding and
      can send packets directly to the mobile node using the mobile node's
      current care-of address."

Shouldn't the RR be started only after the BA is received from the HA ?
When the
MN moved from FN1 (Foreign Network 1) to FN2 and sent the BU to it's HA, it
has
entries in it's BUL for CN's it was interracting with while it was in FN1.
So if it sent the
BU and started the RR before receiving the BA (or atleast before BA was
sent by
the HA), it is possible that the RR packets meant for the MN at FN2 would
get
routed to it's COA at FN1. this means that the HoT message may not
propagate
properly to the MN's new COA.

Is this problem correct ? If so, the text should change to something like :

      "When a mobile node receives the Binding Acknowledgement from
      it's Home Agent, ..... Upon successful return routability procedure,
a Binding
      Update message is sent to all other nodes. ....... "

Thanks,

- KK

=> The MN doesn't necessarily do RR as a result of movement.
So this might need to be explpained as a special case
(BU lifetime expires at the same time that the MN
moves).

does not mention if the MN-HA tunnel will be torn down when the MN returns

Not so. The network has a choice of permitting nodes migrating in and out
to get connectivity. It can choose to be wide open or completely closed:
not handing out any addresses, not permitting passage to and from the
internet for messages from/to any unknown node, migrating node. OR it
(the visited network) may choose a middle road, by selectively opening
up for some mobile nodes. Providing "just IP access" to mobile nodes *is*
to provide support for them. It is not specifically FA support, but
nevertheless support for them coming in, sending and receiving traffic,
and moving on. It is mobility support, and providing a way to handle
the middle ground between a fully open and fully closed visited network
deserved kudos.

Exactly! All you described is only about "IP access" service, nothing
to do with mobility management in the context of Mobile IP protocol.
This network is doing nothing special for the "network-layer mobility
management" of the "nodes". Just because some of those nodes are
"mobile node" doesn't mean that the service provided by the network
is "mobile IP". Some of those nodes might even be using end2end IPsec with
their peers on the other side of the Internet. Now would we say that the
access network is also providing "security" support?

I am not sure if these mechanisms are in conflict.

exponential back-off mechanism is used to sent BUs to the
same CN.

rate-limiting is used to avoid sending more than a certain
number of BUs in a certain amount of time to any CN/HA.

this conflict wont happen right, if you take the above two
definitions into account.

please correc tme if I didnt understand the issue.

I understand your concern. you dont want to start HoTi/HoT exchange
before you can make sure that the HA has your new CoA in its BCE.
you are concerned that the HoT would go to the wrong CoA. actually
this wont happen. the HoTi itself gets dropped. the HoT would fail
the CoA check in the reverse tunneled packet. if the CoA on the
reverse tunneled HoTi does not match the contents of the BCE, the
HA drops the HoTi.

if the home cookies is reused and is valid when the MN moves, this
problem can be avoided.

in general, I think it is a bad idea to delay RR procedure till the
BAck comes back. the MN should do it as soon as possible (now that
previous router notification has been removed).

Vijay

You seem to equate "mobile ip" with "FA". I don't. I do wish you'd read
on to the end of the paragraph.

Hm. You seem more interesting in propagating a different viewpoint than
in getting the feedback you solicited. Anyway, it seems that I value the
possibility of providing visitors to a foreign network with a way to
authenticate themselves and then get connectivity, while you would prefer
them to have no such possibility, and be locked out?

DHAAD reply is already sent to CoA. so there is no change required there.

but we have a problem with MPS/MPA. unless the MPA is sent to the
home address, it cannot be IPsec protected. but if home address
is used we lose "bootstrapping from remote" feature.

I hate this. wish we hadnt decided on IPsec protection for MPS/MPA.
it has so many side effects.

Hello Pete,

I have gone through your analysis and have some
comments.

1. the ultimate control on L2 handover resides in
   firmware. However, the driver can have information
   about the SNR and RSSI. See for instance "Wireless
   Extensions" work in Linux  (Jean Tourrilhes'
   website). So, one could write a wrapper that
   a) selects an AP based on metric(s) of interest
   b) sends RtSolPr
   c) receives PrRtAdv
   d) sends FBU, and
   e) executes steps 2+ in your draft

Note that c) is necessary for the MN to send packets to
the new AR immediately upon connecting. I brought this
up at the last IETF meeting. (See Slide 5 in
http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/02jul/slides/mobileip-3/index.html).
So, the way I see anticipation is that it is an extension in PrRtAdv.
But the bottomline is the MN needs NAR's MAC address.

2. Ofcourse, if the card makes "autonomous decisions", the
above steps might not be useful always. In order to address this
and the "default" scenario, where a host attaches to a new AP
without being able to exchange messages on the previous link,
"Tunnel Establishment Subsequent to Handover" was also
brought up in the last IETF (See Slide 3). Here, an FBU sent
from the new link causes HI/Hack exchange resulting in tunnel set up and
packet forwarding. The MN sends a RS immediately upon
connecting (associating here) to obtain both the MAC address
and the router's IP address, which it uses to bind its previous
CoA.

3. I think one way to look at tunnel-based handover is to
consider the case when RtSolPr and PrRtAdv are not needed.
[As you point out, how the MN gets the NAR's MAC address
is still an issue in WLAN]. Note that recent discussion on
the list has converged on the need for FBU to authorize forwarding
on the tunnel which could be set without exchanging messages
with the MN. Of course, tunnel-based handover also defines
other functionalities such as tunnel renewal, HTT etc.

4. Both "anticipation" and "tunnel-based" approaches need
a bidirectional tunnel between the routers to allow the MN
to send and receive packets using previous CoA. This is the
case even if the MN is able to pre-configure NCoA, since it
is not useful until the BU is completed with the CN(s). So,
anticipation helps in expediting the RR and BU process, and
not so much with the packet forwarding part. In fact, it helps
a MN to receive packets using "direct" routing faster.

All these considerations have been entered into v05 version
and it should be available on the list pretty soon.

Some more comments..

- Since scanning is time consuming, the draft may want to
   make a recommendation to not do it ahead of the actual handover.
   This should also include a note that data is blind-sighted
    during this process.

- There needs to be some discussion of the implications of
    "autonomous decision making" by the card. This is perhaps
    a bigger issue than what the draft can address..

- How widely is the configuration in Figure 2 used compared
    to Figure 1 is useful to know. A hierarchical deployment
    clearly favors configuration 1 which is deployed, and it would
    be useful to know when configuration 2 would be desirable and
    used, if any.

- "Also there is no guarantee that MN will actually attach to
    the given AR after it has sent FBU.."
    While this could be true in general, in our experiments spanning
     few hundred handovers, the MN always attached to the target
     AP (and NAR). We did have more than two APs.

- "Even for Anticipated handovers, these flaws must be fixed to
     allow secure handovers within the same subnet"
     Within the same subnet, why is there a need for IP handover?

- "The relationship between PrRtAdv and CAR discovery protocols
    needs further ...."
    I agree. The important parameter that the MN needs is the NAR's
    MAC address. I would even suggest that the capabilities be provided
    as options in PrRtAdv.

- "If the support for security can be obtained, we recommend a Tunnel-
    -based be initiated .."
     I cannot quite figure out how this conclusion can be made based on
     what the document describes. Apart from the security, you need a
     particular deployment configuration that favors the tunnel mode,
     new messages between the APs and ARs, a message that carries the
     MAC address of the NAR, etc..So, this is premature.

My input is that there is essentially a single mode which can be optimized
further where RtSolPr and PrRtAdv are not needed and address
pre-configuration is not used. It appears that we need PrRtAdv to provide
the MAC addres of the NAR, so might as well provide the prefix
information about NAR whenever possible. It should be up to the MN to
decide if it wishes to pre-configure a NCoA.

Thanks for the analysis.

Thanks TJ, it is quite clear now.

Well, I agree with your suggestions. There should be something like
{Max, Min}MobPfxAdvInterval for Mobile Prefix Advertisements.

For MaxMobPfxAdvInterval we can keep the same value as for
HomeRtrAdvInterval i.e. 3,600 secs as specified in draft-18 and for
MinMobPfxAdvInetrval may be somthing less than 60 secs as we have to
consider the RAND_ADV_DELAY also.

I have few more doubts regarding when to send Mobile Prefix Advertisements
from HA.
It is clear that HA will send unsolicited periodic Mobile Prefix
Advertisements with all Prefix Information options at every
HomeRtrAdvInterval (3,600 secs) to MN after registration.

1) For these advertisements do we need to wait for any acknowledgements
from MN ?

Also HA will send unsolicited MPA to MN if there is any change in parameter
of the  prefix of the MN's registered Home Address.

2) In this case do we need to send all the prefix information options
advertised on the   link or only the changed prefix information option ?

Draft says - The home agent SHOULD periodically continue to retransmit an
   unsolicited Advertisement to the mobile node, either until it is
   acknowledged by the receipt from the mobile node of a Binding Update
   with a home address matching the new home prefix in the packet,
   or until the home agent receives a Mobile Prefix Solicitation
   form the mobile node.

3) In which case MN will send Mobile Prefix Solicitation as acknowledgement
to             unsolicited MPA? If any parameter related to prefix changes
then MN should send BU directly to HA and this can be used as
acknowledgement for MPA.

This would perhaps be a good interpretation, but it is *not* what
the text says in the draft. It says:

    After sending MAX_FAST_UPDATES consecutive Binding Updates to a
    particular node with the same care-of address, the mobile node SHOULD
    reduce its rate of sending Binding Updates to that node, to the rate
    of SLOW_UPDATE_RATE per second.

   Since both DHAAD and prefix discovery use ICMP messages,

=> as there are not essential (IMHO they should be removed)
I think we should throw them in an annex.

   - Something else, what?
   
=> see above

PS: I really suggest we put our efforts on essential things:
we have not two different implementations with support of
the MN-HA bidir tunnel with automatic IPsec protection for
the home registration...

   Your draft, Using IPsec to Protect MIPv6 Signalling between MN and HA,
   does not mention if the MN-HA tunnel will be torn down when the MN returns
   home.  Can you shed some light on this issue?
   
=> home deregistration will delete the tunnel at the HA side.
IMHO the SPD entries should be removed too when no packets will be
still in transit. SAs are less important but there is some good reasons
to keep the SA pairs for BU/BA (it is very specific and can be used again).

Abstract

This document describes a single way to perform both Mobile-IPv4 
and 802.11  authentication and key exchanges. Diameter Mobile-IPv4
Application can be used to consumate message sequences for both
802.11 and Mobile IPv4. If 802.11 pre-authentication is not done
then it is possible to replace the currently proposed 802.1x
Authentication/key-exchange with  Diameter Mobile-IPv4 Application.

Emily, yes that is the assumption here. What are the circumstances,
where they should be different ?  Should they even be different with all
the associated  headaches ?

The BU/BA protection stays as it is, it is also needed on the home link
and it is not dependent on care-of addresses.

The protection within the tunnel is implicitly made inactive by the fact
that the mipv6 tunnel itself no longer exists and the SPD entries said "interface
is the tunnel to the mn/ha". The IPsec tunnel may be deleted or kept; what
matters is that by the time we are at a new location the tunnel gw is set
correctly again on the HA side.

All SAs created through IKE can stay as they are, automatically deleted
when they expire or taken back to use when there is a need to do that
again.

   I don't understand. Why should MIP and IPsec be
   coupled in this manner? The desire to have a SA
   seems pretty orthogonal to the desire to use 
   something as a HA.

Hi, Rajeev,

Thanks for your comments - some responses below.

My understanding of the "Wireless Extensions" is that they give signal
strength information on the currently connected AP only; the "wrapper"
you describe would have to do some kind of exhaustive search,
re-tuning the radio to each channel, associating with the AP there,
figuring out the best AP from the bunch, and then tuning back to that.
I would think this would take much longer than the existing beacon
scanning process.

I think a better approach would be to just move *all* of the
management traffic into the host; something like this does in fact
seem to be allowed by the firmware on most cards with the Prism2
chipset.  See http://hostap.epitest.fi/.  In this way, the host would
actually be sending probes and processing the beacons.  However, the
point made in the draft is that not all cards support this mode of
operation.

I agree that the MN needs to learn the MAC address of nAR, but

If we remove those features that aren't universally implementable on
any 802.11 firmware, what is left is just F-BU.  This doesn't seem to
improve things much over basic Mobile IPv6, assuming we get the
security and semantics of the F-BU defined (I know this was recently
moved out of the base draft, and I think it makes a good topic for the
"fast handoff" draft, but it would have a much smaller scope than its
current incarnation).

If we want to keep features that are only implementable given very
specialized device drivers and/or firmware, we should probably move
some of the discussion into IEEE or at least poll relevant
manufacturers to make sure these things are going to exist.

Maybe RtSolPr and PrRtAdv should be merged with CAR, or perhaps the
same information could be derived on a more end-to-end basis if we
could do something like put AR IP/link addresses into beacons.  This latter
approach would require a bit of work in the IEEE, but would alleviate
some of the AR-to-AR-to-AP configuration issues.

I realize the importance of IP-layer MN-to-AR security (see the
Security Considerations section of the draft), but I worry that this
requirement might rule out some highly optimized configurations that
leverage link-layer security.  However, perhaps the sort of approach
originally outlined in Tunnel-Based is best pursued in the IEEE,
between APs that know they have good security.

Yup.

Agreed.  This is the whole point of fast handoff.

I think you are saying that a head-start on CoA address allocation
gets the RR and BU done faster.  I think this is true, assuming that
you can correctly anticipate the handover; I just don't think current
802.11 cards give the IP stack much time to do anything before
handover.

I think some of the recommendations given at the end of the UMD study
should be looked into.  In particular, maybe we should encourage
beacon scanning well in advance of handover.  It would be nice to be
able to probe one channel at a time, so that a single probe could be
scheduled between real-time packets, and the list of candidates could
be built in advance.

We might just need to wait for a new generation of 802.11 hardware
before any of this work becomes practical.

I can't say for sure, but I think Figure 1 deployments are much more
widespread than Figure 2 deployments.  I think IETF meetings use a
Figure 1 deployment.

Ok, that's a useful data point.

There isn't, I am just saying that if there is a fix for intra-subnet
movement (as there must be no matter what fast handover protocol is
chosen) it might also be a fix for inter-subnet tunnel-based.  The
ongoing 802.11i work seems to be just the fix, although it does
require extra overhead on the critical handoff path for the
inter-subnet case.

Or maybe the information could be pushed down to the 802.11 layer
managements frames.

I don't see the need to pursue separate efforts on CAR and PrRtAdv in
separate drafts.

I would also like to see the methods better integrated, it would be
nice if the draft didn't look like 2 competing proposals glued
together (which is of course what it was...).  I think a bit of
discussion with IEEE folks is in order, to figure out the relationship
between PrRtAdv/CAR/beacons.

You're welcome.  I hope we can all converge on a useful draft through
the resulting discussion.

Content-Type: text/plain;

Hello, All,
 
Do you know any Diameter/RADIUS server that supports (or is trying to
support) Mobile IPv4 application?  The draft
draft-ietf-aaa-diameter-mobileip-XX.txt is for Diameter Mobile IPv4
application. Is there any draft that discusses RADIUS deployment in Mobile
IP?
 
I am planning to implement Mobile Node portion of the draft "AAA
Registration Keys for Mobile IP" (draft-ietf-mobileip-aaa-key-09.txt) and
looking for AAA servers to coordinate with.
 
Best Regards,
Emily Qi

I don't think there's much use of the UID for the CN-MN protocol. For instance,
the CN will be able to see from a combination of its own address and the MN's
home address if this particular binding was the one it was expecting to get
refreshed.

But I think the UID was originally designed for the HA-MN communication, and
in particular the guaranteed delivery of new home prefixes. However, the
current delivery mechanism relies on the home agent's ability to see BUs
for the newly announced prefixes and not UID.

So I agree that UID does not at the moment serve any function, and
removing it would simplify the specification. I would also like to
remove it.

Text proposal:
- Remove 6.2.4
- Remove references to UID from 6.1.2, 6.1.7, 11.6.4, 13.

This is an attempt to close issue 80 ("Please put back the R bit")
documented in:

  http://www.piuha.net/~jarkko/publications/mipv6/issues/issue80.txt

BACKGROUND
==========
In draft-14 there was an 'R' bit in the Binding Update.
The purpose of this bit was to enable support for mobile
routers (as opposed to mobile nodes). These are systems
that (1) use MIPv6 for their own mobility, and (2) provide
routing services for other nodes while away from home.

The 'R' bit was intended only for MN-HA binding updates
(not for MN-CN) and was defined as follows:

      Router (R)

         The Router (R) bit, when set, indicates that the sending
         mobile node is a router.  This bit is only valid when the
         Home Registration (H) bit is also set, and MUST NOT be set
         otherwise.  This bit is saved in the home agent's "home
         registration" Binding Cache entry for the mobile node, and
         is copied into the corresponding bit in all proxy Neighbor
         Advertisement messages sent on behalf of this mobile node by
         the home agent using this Binding Cache entry.

This bit is used by the home agent to know whether to
issue proxy Neighbor Advertisements with the R bit on
or off, and disappeared in rev 15 of the draft. Notice that at the
time of those drafts the binding update was still a destination option.

The R bit was taken out following a decision to not include any
support for mobile routers in the base MIPv6 specification.
This activity, albeit important and worthwhile, is better
carried out elsewhere. The base MIPv6 specification focuses
on node mobility.

It is important to clarify that this distinction applies while
the node is away from home. In particular, while at home,
the node may also be a router. Therefore, it is important to
distinguish between these two cases:

1. router-when-at-home
2. router-when-away-from-home

The base MIPv6 specification (draft-ietf-mobileip-ipv6*.txt)
is not concerned with #2. At the same time, MIPv6 must not
preclude #1, that is, while at home, a node may also be
a router.

ISSUE
=====
First of all, the issue is *not* that some folks want to bring
back any mobile router functionality (case #2 above) into
MIPv6. This is clearly understood to be out of scope for
MIPv6.

Some folks want this bit back because they claim it is required
to support nodes that perform as a router while at home
(#1 above). This is obviously not a problem because
at home the mobile node issues its own neighbor
advertisements per rfc2461, and turns on the R bit or not
by itself. Furthermore, there is no issue when the node
moves away from home.

In this case, the home agent issues the neighbor
advertisements on the mobile node's behalf. Given that
MIPv6 does not support mobile routers, any neighbor
advertisements sent out by the home agent
on behalf of the mobile node away from home
MUST NOT have the R bit set.

This is accomplished by not assigning such a bit
in the binding update (as done starting in rev
15 of the draft). Hence, the home agent is obligated
to issue proxy neighbor advertisements with a zeroed
out 'R' bit. Nodes on the home link detect the transition
from 1 to 0 and modify their neighbor caches accordingly.

Another issue is that some folks claim this bit must
be at least reserved now to guarantee that the
protocol will be extensible for mobile routers in the future. Given
that rev 18 of the draft includes 11 currently unassigned bits, the
probability of running out of bits to assign is negligible, particularly,
because work to define extensions for mobile routers is already under way
(including the definition of the 'R' bit).
See draft-kniveton-mobrtr-02.txt and the NEMO proposed working group.

PROPOSAL
========
Reject this issue. No changes to the text are required.

Please post any issues to the list.

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

	Title		: Mobile IP NAT/NAPT Traversal using UDP Tunnelling
	Author(s)	: H. Levkowetz, S. Vaarala
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mobileip-nat-traversal-06.txt
	Pages		: 35
	Date		: 2002-9-27
	
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 have thought about this some more. Here are a few observations:

- We need a retransmission back-off rule to limit the number
   of BUs/RRs sent in one purpose towards one node. Just like
   TCP.

- We may also need other, more global rules. Potential
   candidates include:

   1. Limit the overall rate of BUs/RRs from this MN.
   2. Limit the overall rate of BUs/RRs towards this CN
      (grouping together all our bindings, for sequential
      or parallel bindings).
   3. Limit the overall rate of BUs/RRs on an interface,
      towards a particular network, etc.

- Limiting the overall rate of BUs/RRs seems too strict.
   A mobile server would have trouble telling all its peers
   about its new location, despite the bandwidth available
   to it.

- Limiting the BUs/RRs towards one CN seems useful
   when when the mobile is moving fast and changing its
   binding. However, 11.4.2. already dictates that movement
   can't occur too frequently, as new care-of addresses
   can't be created more than MAX_UPDATE_RATE per second,
   i.e. once per second.

- What about limiting the number of BUs/RRs per home
   address, given, say, a one-million home address MN?
   We could claim that this is like the server case,
   the MN should be free to do this. However, it is also
   a question of what the CN on the other side will be
   able to handle. So this should be limited in some
   manner.

- Per-interface or per-network limits seem too arbitrary.

- SLOW_UPDATE_RATE and MAX_BINDACK_TIMEOUT are in conflict
   with each other.

 From the above it seems like we need the retransmission
back-off rule, and it would be useful to specify an overall
limit for how many BUs and RRs can be sent towards the same
CN. So, roughly the current approach should be kept, but
we need to work on the text:
- clarify rate limitation is per-CN, any binding
- clarify when retransmission timers are reset
- keep only the MAX_BINDACK_TIMEOUT upper limit
- remove MAX_FAST_UPDATES, and SLOW_UPDATE_RATE

For the text, my proposal is to move all retransmission and
rate limitation discussion to a new section at the end of
11 (we already did this for rate limitation). The text
could look like this:

11.x. Retransmissions and Rate Limiting

The mobile node is responsible for retransmissions and
rate limiting in the return routability and binding
procedures.

When the mobile node sends a Home Test Init, Care-of Test Init or
Binding Update message for which it expects a response,
the mobile node has to determine a value for the initial
retransmission timer:

- If the mobile node is sending a Binding Update and it
   does not have an existing binding at the home
   agent, it SHOULD use a value for the initial retransmission
   timer that is at least 1.5 times longer than (RetransTimer *
   DupAddrDetectTransmits). This value is likely to be substantially
   longer than the otherwise specified value of INITIAL_BINDACK_TIMEOUT
   that would be used by the mobile node.  This longer retransmission
   interval will allow the home agent to complete the DAD procedure
   which is mandated in this case, as detailed in
   Section~\ref{update-home}.

- Otherwise, the mobile node should use the specified value
   of INITIAL_BINDACK_TIMEOUT for the initial retransmission timer.

If the mobile node fails to receive a valid, matching response within the
selected initial retransmission interval, the mobile node SHOULD
retransmit the message, until a response is received.

The retransmissions by the mobile node MUST use an exponential
back-off process, in which the timeout period is doubled upon
each retransmission until either the node receives a response
or the timeout period reaches the value MAX_BINDACK_TIMEOUT.
The mobile node MAY continue to send these messages at
this slower rate indefinitely.

The mobile node SHOULD start a separate back-off process for
different message types, different home addresses and different
care-of addresses. However, the mobile node MUST NOT send
a particular Mobility Header message type to any individual node
more often than once per MAX_UPDATE_RATE seconds.

Retransmitted Binding Updates MUST use a Sequence Number
value greater than that used for the previous transmission of
this Binding Update. Retransmitted Home Test Init and Care-of Test
Init messages MUST use a new HoT or CoT Cookie value.

I agree with you in genral.  This should be clarified.

That makes sense, but see blow...

The MAX_PFX_ADV_DELAY variable is the default for the Mobile Node when it
doesn't know what the actual prefix advetisement interval is
(it hasn't received an MPA that specified it).

Having said that, as long as the mobile node knows the {Min,Max} defaults
definded below, this variable can be removed.

Yes.

Why not re-use the valudes defined in 2461 for {Max,Min}RtrAdvInterval.
We are essentially trying to reproduced the same functionality.

I have a question about the draft of mobile ip MIB:
"The Definitions of Managed Objects for IP Mobility Support using SMIv2,
revised draft-ietf-mobileip-rfc2006bis-01.txt" 

In the "haRegCounterEntry", it says the index will be
"haMobilityBindingMnIdType" and "haMobilityBindingId".
However, in the table itself, the indexes are nowhere to be found. So how
does anyone index into the haRegCounterTable?

The same thing happens to haRegCounterTable in RFC 2006. So what do I miss
here?


Thanks
-Peter

Peter,
       The index object need not be part of the same table.
It can be defined in
- some other MIB
- part of some other table in same MIB.

In this case, index objects
 haMobilityBindingMnIdType, haMobilityBindingMnId

are part of 'haMobilityBindingTable' which is defined 
before  'haRegCounterTable'.

Thanks,
Rathi

A quick description from the draft:

The MN ID may be the NAI and Binding ID is the IP address of MN.

   (2)  Three new textual conventions were added : MipEntityIdentifier-
        Type, MipEntityIdentifier and MipEntityIdentifierNAI.  These
        textual conventions were defined to take into account that
        mobile nodes can be identified by other than ipaddress.


The haRegCounterEntry is indexed by haMobilityBindingMnIDType and
haMobilityBindingMnID, described below:

    haMobilityBindingMnIdType OBJECT-TYPE
         SYNTAX      MipEntityIdentifierType
         MAX-ACCESS  read-only
         STATUS      current
         DESCRIPTION
                 "The type of the mobile node's identifier."
         ::= { haMobilityBindingEntry 9 }

    haMobilityBindingMnId OBJECT-TYPE

         DESCRIPTION
                 "The identifier of the mobile node."
         ::= { haMobilityBindingEntry 10 }


The definition of MipEntityIdentifierType and MipEntityIdentifier are below:

    MipEntityIdentifierType ::=  TEXTUAL-CONVENTION
        STATUS       current
        DESCRIPTION
                "A value that represents a type of Mobile IP entity

                             the CmiEntityIdentifierNAI textual

        DESCRIPTION
                "Represents the generic identifier for Mobile IP
                entities.  A CmiEntityIdentifier value is always

                             Foreign agents and Home agents are
                identified by the IP addresses.  Mobile nodes can be
                identified in more than one way e.g. IP addresses,
                network access identifiers (NAI).  If mobile node is
                identified by  something other than IP address say by
                NAI and it gets IP address dynamically from the home
                agent then value of object of this type should be same
                as NAI.  This is because IP address is not tied with
                mobile node and it can change across registrations over
                period of time."
        SYNTAX       OCTET STRING (SIZE (1..255))


Does this help?

The index is the IP address of MN.

        ::= { haMobilityBindingEntry 1 }

The old way was using only IP address as index since this happens to be
the identifier of the MN as well.  

The new way supports NAI and static IP address to identify the MN.

I suppose scanning is needed anyway. It should be done
at a less time-critical time. (We seem to agree below).

Right. We should cover different possibilities. "Tunnel Establishment
Subsequent to Handover" is meant to cover the cases when no
firmware/driver support is available for any preparation prior to
handover.

We should specify PrRtAdv, while leaving room for others.

"universally implementable" is a function of time!

Well, FBU (in this case) triggers a tunnel set up which is necessary to
allow the MN
to use previous CoA. With MIPv6, you could have had a tunnel from
the PAR to NCoA, but, NCoA is not useful as a src IP address until
RR is done. FMIPv6 allows a MN to use PCoA until RR is done. So,
I would say there is a crucial improvement.

We should be in sync with IEEE. And, we should leave room for
improvements. The example you cite above and the Wireless
Extensions work are perhaps indicators that one could already
use the protocol messages provided.

I would say the opposite: the least denominator in PrRtAdv is NAR's
MAC address for communication. Any available "capabilities" can be
provided as options.

I hope something like this could be done. We should leave
room for it in the draft.

Good. Just as a matter of clarification, v04 predates RR which
makes use of PCoA in a source IP address necessary. RR was
not a consideration in v04.

Right.

The hooks should exist for anticipation. And, we can cover the
current default scenario by sending FBU subsequent to handover.
This is specified in the v05 which will be available soon.

Agreed. Indeed, in our experiments, we have done the same.

That's what I thought as well. Deployment in Figure 1 clearly provides
better coverage area per subnet.

ok. You might rephrase it then that the issue is intra-subnet
movement.

That is possible, although unlikely for IETF to work on.

While I agree with the need to avoid duplicity, the practical issues
are noteworthy. I hope [seamoby] can define CAR capabilities in
a format that would allow them to be used as options in PrRtAdv,
being standardized in [mobile-ip].

   Again, another disclaimer about how far behind I am,
   but why wouldn't access-list style security be
   sufficient? Is it to prevent different user on
   the same home agent from hijacking each other's 
   session?

   In any case, since MIP and IPsec are typically
   in the kernel I'm not sure that there's really
   much of a disconnect here. That is, it seems
   pretty plausible that the MIP code could look
   into SADB to determine what cryptographic
   identity is associated with a particular home
   address.

sending/receiving would be simplified, as e.g. the new CoA could be
the source address of the BU packet, with no additional IPv6 options:

Hi,
We ar using the 2.2.20 version of Linux kernel with ip
in ip and GRE tunneling enabled. We downloaded the
Mobile IP  code from the Sun site and compiled & ran
it as per the instructions given in the readme.
Our Agent seemed to be getting all the right ICMP
solicitation messages but our Mobile node seems to be
giving no output on the screen. It just exists out
when the 'mipmn' is run.
Would anyone be able to tell us what responce we
should expect on the mobile node and the agent, and
how to proceed to get to that and after that.

Thanks in advace.

Can mobile node still send a re-association message even though
it's now trying to associate with an AP in another ESS? 
If we can use re-association "only" when the mobile is moving
within the same ESS, than what is the use? The mobility would
be already handled by L2 mechanisms, right?

I think this claim shouldn't go in the text without sufficient support.
In the form of either a dedicated section in the draft, or a

There's a question about whether the kernel could handle the beacon processing.
Also, if the hosts are in infrastructureless mode (which is essentially what you
are describing) they can only look at one channel if there is only one .11
transciever, right? Otherwise, the host is in the same situation as before,
namely the driver (rather than the firmware)  would have to retune the
transciever to another channel, in which case the host would lose data service.

But I've not looked at the Prism2 specs, so I don't know whether having the
driver handle the AP management and the APs essentially do an all-IP AP protocol
would work better or not. I think the Moby Dick guys in Europe have looked into
this, but I am not sure how far they got with it.

I've argued on this list (and I hope to have a draft ready by the deadline) that
the current FBU semantics confuse MIP binding update with fixing up a temporary
failure of routing due to the handover. I think it should be possible to define
a way to do mobile initiated tunnel establishment that doesn't have this
confusion, for example, by including an extension on the SolRtAdv which the MN
sends to the new AR, allowing the new AR to establish the tunnel. There are some
security implications here, there needs to be some security between the router
and the MN, but the very same security implications are there for any routing
function (including setting up the initial security association with the old AR
so that the FBU can be secured), not just setting up the tunnel.

Agree. We've looked at a number of existing products, and they all have the
characteristic that the handover decision making by the firmware is a black box.
Once the scan starts for handover, it is not possible to interrupt it. Some
cards allow the driver to obtain signal strength or "link quality" information,
others don't, but if the handover can't be broken between steps 1 and 2 for IP
signaling, then the information is not useful for doing anticpated handover.
There is nothing that IETF can really do about this problem, as IETF does not
control the link specification.

The problem is that the scanning is scheduled on the channel with the same
priority as data packets. To the extent that extra scanning results in
additional traffic, it could increase the collision rate and reduce the number
of mobile nodes that can be scheduled per AP.

I'm curious how many mobile nodes were involved. The behavior under load might
be much different than with one or a few mobile nodes. For example, in our
measurements, Layer 2 handover time increased as the number of mobile nodes
doing real time traffic increased, because of the aformentioned lack of QoS on
the handover signaling.

There is a Seamoby design team currently working on CARD. CARD has a wider scope
than just this particular problem, for example, it is expected to be useful in
intertechnology handover.

I don't think PrRtAdv is necessarily needed for this purpose. The CARD protocol
could run well in advance of handover, perhaps even when the MN shows up at the
new AR. Thus, the MN would have a complete map from surrounding AP L2 addresss
to new AR L2/IP addresses which would be periodically updated _outside_ of the
time-critical handover period. When a reassociation happens, the MN can perform
the mapping between the new AP L2 address and the AR L2/IP address, to initiate
the tunnel and to route packets to the new AR while it is undergoing the
time-consuming process of configuring its new care of address. The old AR need
not be involved at all, except to confirm the tunnel initiation and to tunnel
packets as needed.

I'm not sure a general draft is possible. Your work on 802.11 has shown that the
04 draft, and even the 05 draft which Rajeev just released, doesn't really
contain anything that would work on existing 802.11 products. I would actually
prefer a draft that had a collection of techniques, and then apply them to
particular link layers in drafts for those specific link layers ("Fast Handover
over 802.11", etc.). That is more likely to provide implementors with
interoperable specifications for specific link layers. For MIPv4, the draft is
such a collection of techniques, and I think that approach is more likely to
accommodate the diversity in wireless link layers.

Rajeev,

It is also a function of how tightly the specification is written, so
manufacturers don't have room for variations that cause interoperability
problems. The 802.11 specification is, unfortunatly, very loosely written in the
area of handover.

If we want MIP and 802.11 to work better together, we will have to convince the
802.11 committee to change the spec in a way that will facilitate
interoperability by tightening up the definition of what the firmware is allowed
to do.

I disagree. The current draft requires PrRtAdv to be scheduled immediately prior
to handover. Merging it with CAR would remove it from the time-critical handover
period. If the MN always has a map of available APs, then it doesn't have to
contact the old AR when it moves, accomodating the default 802.11 as it exists
in products today.

There is, of course, an issue here with other link layers (such a cellular)
where the old AR can provide help, but then we are into a network initiated
case, and that is another situation.

This is one reason why I think trying to get a single protocol that covers all
link layers is not likely to be very productive. Every link layer has particular
features and misfeatures that will allow/inhibit additional optimization. If the
intent is to come up with a protocol that provides maximum optimization, then we
must allow developers to utilize those features/accommodate misfeatures. While
it might be possible to capture some of these features in an abstraction, such
as link layer triggers, this approach has not generated much appeal in the IETF.

On the other hand, if the goal is to simply provide an improved version of
movement detection (which is what I think draft 05 is trying to do), then
perhaps accommodating various link layers isn't necessary. But we should not
expect it to work particularly well on specific link layers, including 802.11,
though it will probably work better than movement detection on all link layers.

The Seamoby design team is aware of the issue, and have been tasked with taking
it into account in their deliberations.
