Abstract

 A Mobile IPv6 node requires a Home Agent address, a home address, and
 IPsec security associations with its Home Agent before it can start
 utilizing Mobile IPv6 service.  RFC 3775 requires that some or all of
 these are statically configured.  This document defines how a Mobile
 IPv6 node can bootstrap this information from non-topological
 information and security credentials pre-configured on the Mobile
 Node.  The solution defined in this document solves the split
 scenario described in the Mobile IPv6 bootstrapping problem statement
 in RFC 4640.  The split scenario refers to the case where the Mobile
 Node's mobility service is authorized by a different service provider
 than basic network access.  The solution described in this document
 is also generically applicable to any bootstrapping case, since other
 scenarios are more specific realizations of the split scenario.

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 2] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

1. Introduction

 Mobile IPv6 [1] requires the Mobile Node to know its Home Agent
 Address, its own Home Address, and the cryptographic materials (e.g.,
 shared keys or certificates) needed to set up IPsec security
 associations with the Home Agent (HA) in order to protect Mobile IPv6
 signaling.  This is generally referred to as the Mobile IPv6
 bootstrapping problem [7].
 The Mobile IPv6 base protocol does not specify any method to
 automatically acquire this information, which means that network
 administrators are normally required to manually set configuration
 data on Mobile Nodes and HAs.  However, in real deployments, manual
 configuration does not scale as the Mobile Nodes increase in number.
 As discussed in [7], several bootstrapping scenarios can be
 identified depending on the relationship between the network operator
 that authenticates a mobile node for granting network access service
 (Access Service Authorizer, ASA) and the service provider that
 authorizes Mobile IPv6 service (Mobility Service Authorizer, MSA).
 This document describes a solution to the bootstrapping problem that
 is applicable in a scenario where the MSA and the ASA are different
 entities (i.e., a split scenario).

2. Terminology

 The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
 "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
 document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [2].
 General mobility terminology can be found in [8].  The following
 additional terms are used here:
 Access Service Authorizer (ASA)
    A network operator that authenticates a mobile node and
    establishes the mobile node's authorization to receive Internet
    service.
 Access Service Provider (ASP)
    A network operator that provides direct IP packet forwarding to
    and from the end host.

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 3] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

 Mobility Service Authorizer (MSA)
    A service provider that authorizes Mobile IPv6 service.
 Mobility Service Provider (MSP)
    A service provider that provides Mobile IPv6 service.  In order to
    obtain such service, the mobile node must be authenticated and
    prove authorization to obtain the service.
 Split scenario
    A scenario where mobility service and network access service are
    authorized by different entities.  This implies that MSA is
    different from ASA.

3. Split Scenario

 In the problem statement description [7], there is a clear assumption
 that mobility service and network access service can be separate.
 This assumption implies that mobility service and network access
 service may be authorized by different entities.  As an example, the
 service model defined in [7] allows an enterprise network to deploy a
 Home Agent and offer Mobile IPv6 service to a user, even if the user
 is accessing the Internet independent of its enterprise account
 (e.g., by using his personal WiFi hotspot account at a coffee shop).
 Therefore, in this document it is assumed that network access and
 mobility service are authorized by different entities, which means
 that authentication and authorization for mobility service and
 network access will be considered separately.  This scenario is
 called split scenario.
 Moreover, the model defined in [7] separates the entity providing the
 service from the entity that authenticates and authorizes the user.
 This is similar to the roaming model for network access.  Therefore,
 in the split scenario, two different cases can be identified
 depending on the relationship between the entity that provides the
 mobility service (i.e., Mobility Service Provider, MSP) and the
 entity that authenticates and authorizes the user (i.e., Mobility
 Service Authorizer, MSA).

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 4] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

 Figure 1 depicts the split scenario when the MSP and the MSA are the
 same entity.  This means that the network operator that provides the
 Home Agent authenticates and authorizes the user for mobility
 service.

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 5] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

 Figure 2 shows the split scenario in case the MSA and the MSP are two
 different entities.  This might happen if the Mobile Node is far from
 its MSA network and is assigned a closer HA to optimize performance
 or if the MSA cannot provide any Home Agent and relies on a third
 party (i.e., the MSP) to grant mobility service to its users.  Notice
 that the MSP might or might not also be the network operator that is
 providing network access (i.e., ASP, Access Service Provider).

               Figure 2 -- Split Scenario (MSA != MSP)
 Note that Figure 1 and Figure 2 assume the use of an Authentication,
 Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) protocol to authenticate and
 authorize the Mobile Node for mobility service.  However, since the
 Internet Key Exchange Protocol (IKEv2) allows an Extensible
 Authentication Protocol (EAP) client authentication only and the
 server authentication needs to be performed based on certificates or
 public keys, the Mobile Node potentially requires a Certificate
 Revocation List check (CRL check) even though an AAA protocol is used
 to authenticate and authorize the Mobile Node for mobility service.
 If, instead, a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is used, the Mobile
 Node and HA use certificates to authenticate each other and there is
 no AAA server involved [9].  This is conceptually similar to Figure
 1, since the MSP == MSA, except the Home Agent, and potentially the

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 6] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

 Mobile Node, may require a certificate revocation list check (CRL
 check) with the Certification Authority (CA).  The CA may be either
 internal or external to the MSP.  Figure 3 illustrates this.

               Figure 3 -- Split Scenario with PKI
 For more details on the use of PKI for IKEv2 authentication, please
 refer to [3] and [10].
 The split scenario is the simplest model that can be identified,
 since no assumptions about the access network are made.  This implies
 that the mobility service is bootstrapped independently from the
 authentication protocol for network access used (e.g., EAP or even
 open access).  For this reason, the solution described in this
 document and developed for this scenario could also be applied to the
 integrated access-network deployment model [7], even if it might not
 be optimized.

4. Components of the Solution

 The bootstrapping problem is composed of different sub-problems that
 can be solved independently in a modular way.  The components are
 identified and a brief overview of their solution follow.

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 7] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

 HA address discovery
    The Mobile Node needs to discover the address of its Home Agent.
    The main objective of a bootstrapping solution is to minimize the
    data pre-configured on the Mobile Node.  For this reason, the
    DHAAD defined in [1] may not be applicable in real deployments
    since it is required that the Mobile Node is pre-configured with
    the home network prefix and does not allow an operator to load
    balance by having Mobile Nodes dynamically assigned to Home Agents
    located in different subnets.  This document defines a solution
    for Home Agent address discovery that is based on Domain Name
    Service (DNS), introducing a new DNS SRV record [4].  The unique
    information that needs to be pre-configured on the Mobile Node is
    the domain name of the MSP.
 IPsec Security Associations setup
    Mobile IPv6 requires that a Mobile Node and its Home Agent share
    an IPsec SA in order to protect binding updates and other Mobile
    IPv6 signaling.  This document provides a solution that is based
    on IKEv2 and follows what is specified in [3].  The IKEv2 peer
    authentication can be performed both using certificates and using
    EAP depending on the network operator's deployment model.
 Home Address (HoA) assignment
    The Mobile Node needs to know its Home Address in order to
    bootstrap Mobile IPv6 operation.  The Home Address is assigned by
    the Home Agent during the IKEv2 exchange (as described in [3]).
    The solution defined in this document also allows the Mobile Node
    to auto-configure its Home Address based on stateless auto-
    configuration [11], Cryptographically Generated Addresses [12], or
    privacy addresses [13].
 Authentication and Authorization with MSA
    The user must be authenticated in order for the MSP to grant the
    service.  Since the user credentials can be verified only by the
    MSA, this authorization step is performed by the MSA.  Moreover,
    the mobility service must be explicitly authorized by the MSA
    based on the user's profile.  These operations are performed in
    different ways depending on the credentials used by the Mobile
    Node during the IKEv2 peer authentication and on the backend
    infrastructure (PKI or AAA).
 An optional part of bootstrapping involves providing a way for the
 Mobile Node to have its Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) updated in
 the DNS with a dynamically assigned home address.  While not all

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 8] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

 applications will require this service, many networking applications
 use the FQDN to obtain an address for a node prior to starting IP
 traffic with it.  The solution defined in this document specifies
 that the dynamic DNS update is performed by the Home Agent or through
 the AAA infrastructure, depending on the trust relationship in place.

5. Protocol Operations

 This section describes in detail the procedures needed to perform
 Mobile IPv6 bootstrapping based on the components identified in the
 previous section.

5.1. Home Agent Address Discovery

 Once a Mobile Node has obtained network access, it can perform Mobile
 IPv6 bootstrapping.  For this purpose, the Mobile Node queries the
 DNS server to request information on Home Agent service.  As
 mentioned before in the document, the Mobile Node should be pre-
 configured with the domain name of the Mobility Service Provider.
 The Mobile Node needs to obtain the IP address of a DNS server before
 it can send a DNS request.  This can be configured on the Mobile Node
 or obtained through DHCPv6 from the visited link [14].  In any case,
 it is assumed that there is some kind of mechanism by which the
 Mobile Node is configured with a DNS server since a DNS server is
 needed for many other reasons.
 Two options for DNS lookup for a Home Agent address are identified in
 this document: DNS lookup by Home Agent Name and DNS lookup by
 service name.
 This document does not provide a specific mechanism to load balance
 different Mobile Nodes among Home Agents.  It is possible for an MSP
 to achieve coarse-grained load balancing by dynamically updating the
 SRV RR priorities to reflect the current load on the MSP's collection
 of Home Agents.  Mobile Nodes then use the priority mechanism to
 preferentially select the least loaded HA.  The effectiveness of this
 technique depends on how much of a load it will place on the DNS
 servers, particularly if dynamic DNS is used for frequent updates.
 While this document specifies a Home Agent Address Discovery solution
 based on DNS, when the ASP and the MSP are the same entity, DHCP may
 be used.  See [15] for details.

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 9] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

5.1.1. DNS Lookup by Home Agent Name

 In this case, the Mobile Node is configured with the Fully Qualified
 Domain Name of the Home Agent.  As an example, the Mobile Node could
 be configured with the name "ha1.example.com", where "example.com" is
 the domain name of the MSP granting the mobility service.
 The Mobile Node constructs a DNS request by setting the QNAME to the
 name of the Home Agent.  The request has QTYPE set to "AAAA" so that
 the DNS server sends the IPv6 address of the Home Agent.  Once the
 DNS server replies to this query, the Mobile Node knows its Home
 Agent address and can run IKEv2 in order to set up the IPsec SAs and
 get a Home Address.
 Note that the configuration of a home agent FQDN on the mobile node
 can also be extended to dynamically assign a local home agent from
 the visited network.  Such dynamic assignment would be useful, for
 instance, from the point of view of improving routing efficiency in
 bidirectional tunneling mode.  Enhancements or conventions for
 dynamic assignment of local home agents are outside the scope of this
 specification.

5.1.2. DNS Lookup by Service Name

 RFC 2782 [4] defines the service resource record (SRV RR) that allows
 an operator to use several servers for a single domain, to move
 services from host to host, and to designate some hosts as primary
 servers for a service and others as backups.  Clients ask for a
 specific service/protocol for a specific domain and get back the
 names of any available servers.
 RFC 2782 [4] also describes the policies to choose a service agent
 based on the preference and weight values.  The DNS SRV record may
 contain the preference and weight values for multiple Home Agents
 available to the Mobile Node in addition to the Home Agent FQDNs.  If
 multiple Home Agents are available in the DNS SRV record, then the
 Mobile Node is responsible for processing the information as per
 policy and for picking one Home Agent.  If the Home Agent of choice
 does not respond to the IKE_SA_INIT messages or if IKEv2
 authentication fails, the Mobile Node SHOULD try the next Home Agent
 on the list.  If none of the Home Agents respond, the Mobile Node
 SHOULD try again after a period of time that is configurable on the
 Mobile Node.  If IKEv2 authentication fails with all Home Agents, it
 is an unrecoverable error on the Mobile Node.
 The service name for Mobile IPv6 Home Agent service, as required by
 RFC 2782, is "mip6" and the protocol name is "ipv6".  Note that a

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 10] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

 transport name cannot be used here because Mobile IPv6 does not run
 over a transport protocol.
 The SRV RR has a DNS type code of 33.  As an example, the Mobile
 constructs a request with QNAME set to "_mip6._ipv6.example.com" and
 QTYPE to SRV.  The reply contains the FQDNs of one or more servers
 that can then be resolved in a separate DNS transaction to the IP
 addresses.  However, if there is room in the SRV reply, it is
 RECOMMENDED that the DNS server also return the IP addresses of the
 Home Agents in AAAA records as part of the additional data section
 (in order to avoid requiring an additional DNS round trip to resolve
 the FQDNs).

5.2. IPsec Security Associations Setup

 As soon as the Mobile Node has discovered the Home Agent Address, it
 establishes an IPsec Security Association with the Home Agent itself
 through IKEv2.  The detailed description of this procedure is
 provided in [3].  If the Mobile Node wants the HA to register the
 Home Address in the DNS, it MUST use the FQDN as the initiator
 identity in the IKE_AUTH step of the IKEv2 exchange (IDi).  This is
 needed because the Mobile Node has to prove it is the owner of the
 FQDN provided in the subsequent DNS Update Option.  See Sections 6
 and 9 for a more detailed analysis on this issue.
 The IKEv2 Mobile Node to Home Agent authentication can be performed
 using either IKEv2 public key signatures or the Extensible
 Authentication Protocol (EAP).  The details about how to use IKEv2
 authentication are described in [3] and [5].  The choice of an IKEv2
 peer authentication method depends on the deployment.  The Mobile
 Node should be configured with the information on which IKEv2
 authentication method to use.  However, IKEv2 restricts the Home
 Agent to Mobile Node authentication to use public key signature-based
 authentication.

5.3. Home Address Assignment

 Home Address assignment is performed during the IKEv2 exchange.  The
 Home Address can be assigned directly by the Home Agent or it can be
 auto-configured by the Mobile Node.

5.3.1. Home Address Assignment by the Home Agent

 When the Mobile Node runs IKEv2 with its Home Agent, it can request a
 HoA through the Configuration Payload in the IKE_AUTH exchange by
 including an INTERNAL_IP6_ADDRESS attribute.  When the Home Agent
 processes the message, it allocates a HoA and sends it a CFG_REPLY
 message.  The Home Agent could consult a DHCP server on the home link

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 11] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

 for the actual home address allocation.  This is explained in detail
 in [3].

5.3.2. Home Address Auto-Configuration by the Mobile Node

 With the type of assignment described in the previous section, the
 Home Address cannot be generated based on Cryptographically Generated
 Addresses (CGAs) [12] or based on the privacy extensions for
 stateless auto-configuration [13].  However, the Mobile Node might
 want to have an auto-configured HoA based on these mechanisms.  It is
 worthwhile to mention that the auto-configuration procedure described
 in this section cannot be used in some possible deployments, since
 the Home Agents might be provisioned with pools of allowed Home
 Addresses.
 In the simplest case, the Mobile Node is provided with a pre-
 configured home prefix and home prefix length.  In this case, the
 Mobile Node creates a Home Address based on the pre-configured prefix
 and sends it to the Home Agent, including an INTERNAL_IP6_ADDRESS
 attribute in a Configuration Payload of type CFG_REQUEST.  If the
 Home Address is valid, the Home Agent replies with a CFG_REPLY,
 including an INTERNAL_IP6_ADDRESS with the same address.  If the Home
 Address provided by the Mobile Node is not valid, the Home Agent
 assigns a different Home Address including an INTERNAL_IP6_ADDRESS
 attribute with a new value.  According to [5], the Mobile Node MUST
 use the address sent by the Home Agent.  Later, if the Mobile Node
 wants to use an auto-configured Home Address (e.g., based on CGA), it
 can run Mobile Prefix Discovery, obtain a prefix, auto-configure a
 new Home Address, and then perform a new CREATE_CHILD_SA exchange.
 If the Mobile Node is not provided with a pre-configured Home Prefix,
 the Mobile cannot simply propose an auto-configured HoA in the
 Configuration Payload since the Mobile Node does not know the home
 prefix before the start of the IKEv2 exchange.  The Mobile Node must
 obtain the home prefix and the home prefix length before it can
 configure a home address.
 One simple solution would be for the Mobile Node to just assume that
 the prefix length on the home link is 64 bits and extract the home
 prefix from the Home Agent's address.  The disadvantage with this
 solution is that the home prefix cannot be anything other than /64.
 Moreover, this ties the prefix on the home link and the Home Agent's
 address, but, in general, a Home Agent with a particular address
 should be able to serve a number of prefixes on the home link, not
 just the prefix from which its address is configured.
 Another solution would be for the Mobile Node to assume that the
 prefix length on the home link is 64 bits and send its interface

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 12] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

 identifier to the Home Agent in the INTERNAL_IP6_ADDRESS attribute
 within the CFG_REQ payload.  Even though this approach does not tie
 the prefix on the home link and the Home Agent's address, it still
 requires that the home prefix length is 64 bits.
 For this reason, the Mobile Node needs to obtain the home link
 prefixes through the IKEv2 exchange.  In the Configuration Payload
 during the IKE_AUTH exchange, the Mobile Node includes the
 MIP6_HOME_PREFIX attribute in the CFG_REQUEST message.  The Home
 Agent, when it processes this message, MUST include in the CFG_REPLY
 payload prefix information for one prefix on the home link.  This
 prefix information includes the prefix length (see Section 8.2).  The
 Mobile Node auto-configures a Home Address from the prefix returned
 in the CFG_REPLY message and runs a CREATE_CHILD_SA exchange to
 create security associations for the new Home Address.
 As mentioned before in this document, there are deployments where
 auto-configuration of the Home Address cannot be used.  In this case,
 when the Home Agent receives a CFG_REQUEST that includes a
 MIP6_HOME_PREFIX attribute in the subsequent IKE response, it
 includes a Notify Payload type "USE_ASSIGNED_HoA" and the related
 Home Address in a INTERNAL_IP6_ADDRESS attribute.  If the Mobile Node
 gets a "USE_ASSIGNED_HoA" Notify Payload in response to the
 Configuration Payload containing the MIP6_HOME_PREFIX attribute, it
 looks for an INTERNAL_IP6_ADDRESS attribute and MUST use the address
 contained in it in the subsequent CREATE_CHILD_SA exchange.
 When the Home Agent receives a Binding Update for the Mobile Node, it
 performs proxy DAD for the auto-configured Home Address.  If DAD
 fails, the Home Agent rejects the Binding Update.  If the Mobile Node
 receives a Binding Acknowledgement with status 134 (DAD failed), it
 MUST stop using the current Home Address, configure a new HoA, and
 then run IKEv2 CREATE_CHILD_SA exchange to create security
 associations based on the new HoA.  The Mobile Node does not need to
 run IKE_INIT and IKE_AUTH exchanges again.  Once the necessary
 security associations are created, the Mobile Node sends a Binding
 Update for the new Home Address.
 It is worth noting that with this mechanism, the prefix information
 carried in MIP6_HOME_PREFIX attribute includes only one prefix and
 does not carry all the information that is typically present when
 received through a IPv6 router advertisement.  Mobile Prefix
 Discovery, specified in RFC 3775, is the mechanism through which the
 Mobile Node can get all prefixes on the home link and all related
 information.  That means that MIP6_HOME_PREFIX attribute is only used
 for Home Address auto-configuration and does not replace the usage of
 Mobile Prefix Discovery for the purposes detailed in RFC 3775.

5.4. Authorization and Authentication with MSA

 In a scenario where the Home Agent is discovered dynamically by the
 Mobile Node, it is very likely that the Home Agent is not able to
 verify by its own the credentials provided by the Mobile Node during
 the IKEv2 exchange.  Moreover, the mobility service needs to be
 explicitly authorized based on the user's profile.  As an example,
 the Home Agent might not be aware of whether the mobility service can
 be granted at a particular time of the day or when the credit of the
 Mobile Node is going to expire.
 Due to all these reasons, the Home Agent may need to contact the MSA
 in order to authenticate the Mobile Node and authorize mobility
 service.  This can be accomplished based on a Public Key
 Infrastructure if certificates are used and a PKI is deployed by the
 MSP and MSA.  On the other hand, if the Mobile Node is provided with
 other types of credentials, the AAA infrastructure must be used.
 The definition of this backend communication is out of the scope of
 this document.  In [16], a list of goals for such a communication is
 provided. [17] and [18] define the RADIUS and Diameter extensions,
 respectively, for the backend communication.

6. Home Address Registration in the DNS

 In order that the Mobile Node is reachable through its dynamically
 assigned Home Address, the DNS needs to be updated with the new Home
 Address.  Since applications make use of DNS lookups on FQDN to find
 a node, the DNS update is essential for providing IP reachability to
 the Mobile Node, which is the main purpose of the Mobile IPv6
 protocol.  The need for DNS updating is not discussed in RFC 3775
 since it assumes that the Mobile Node is provisioned with a static
 Home Address.  However, when a dynamic Home Address is assigned to
 the Mobile Node, any existing DNS entry becomes invalid and the
 Mobile Node becomes unreachable unless a DNS update is performed.
 Since the DNS update must be performed securely in order to prevent
 attacks or modifications from malicious nodes, the node performing
 this update must share a security association with the DNS server.
 Having all possible Mobile Nodes sharing a security association with
 the DNS servers of the MSP might be cumbersome from an administrative
 perspective.  Moreover, even if a Mobile Node has a security
 association with a DNS server of its MSP, an address authorization
 issue comes into the picture.  A detailed analysis of possible
 threats against DNS update is provided in Section 9.5.
 Therefore, due to security and administrative reasons, it is
 RECOMMENDED that the Home Agent perform DNS entry updates for the

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 14] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

 Mobile Node.  For this purpose, the Mobile Node MAY include a new
 mobility option in the Binding Update, the DNS Update option, with
 the flag R not set in the option.  This option is defined in Section
 8 and includes the FQDN that needs to be updated.  After receiving
 the Binding Update, the Home Agent MUST update the DNS entry with the
 identifier provided by the Mobile Node and the Home Address included
 in the Home Address Option.  The procedure for sending a dynamic DNS
 update message is specified in [6].  The dynamic DNS update SHOULD be
 performed in a secure way; for this reason, the usage of TKEY and
 TSEC or DNSSEC is recommended (see Section 9.5 for details).  As soon
 as the Home Agent has updated the DNS, it MUST send a Binding
 Acknowledgement message to the Mobile Node, including the DNS Update
 mobility option with the correct value in the Status field (see
 Section 8.1).
 This procedure can be performed directly by the Home Agent if the
 Home Agent has a security association with the domain specified in
 the Mobile Node's FQDN.
 On the other hand, if the Mobile Node wants to be reachable through a
 FQDN that belongs to the MSA, the Home Agent and the DNS server that
 must be updated belong to different administrative domains.  In this
 case, the Home Agent may not share a security association with the
 DNS server and the DNS entry update can be performed by the AAA
 server of the MSA.  In order to accomplish this, the Home Agent sends
 to the AAA server the FQDN-HoA pair through the AAA protocol.  This
 message is proxied by the AAA infrastructure of the MSP and is
 received by the AAA server of the MSA.  The AAA server of the MSA
 performs the DNS update based on [6].  Notice that, even in this
 case, the Home Agent is always required to perform a DNS update for
 the reverse entry, since this is always performed in the DNS server
 of the MSP.  The detailed description of the communication between
 Home Agent and AAA is out of the scope of this document.  More
 details are provided in [16].
 A mechanism to remove stale DNS entries is needed.  A DNS entry
 becomes stale when the related Home Address is no longer used by the
 Mobile Node.  To remove a DNS entry, the Mobile Node includes in the
 Binding Update the DNS Update mobility option, with the flag R set in
 the option.  After receiving the Binding Update, the Home Agent MUST
 remove the DNS entry identified by the FQDN provided by the Mobile
 Node and the Home Address included in the Home Address Option.  The
 procedure for sending a dynamic DNS update message is specified in
 [6].  As mentioned above, the dynamic DNS update SHOULD be performed
 in a secure way; for this reason, the usage of TKEY and TSEC or
 DNSSEC is recommended (see Section 9.5 for details).

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 15] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

 If there is no explicit de-registration BU from the Mobile Node, then
 the HA MAY use the binding cache entry expiration as a trigger to
 remove the DNS entry.

7. Summary of Bootstrapping Protocol Flow

 Notice that even in this last case, the Home Agent is always required
 to perform a DNS update for the reverse entry, since this is always
 performed in the DNS server of the MSP.  This is not depicted in the
 figure above.

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 19] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

 When the MIP6_HOME_PREFIX attribute is included by the Mobile Node in
 the CFG_REQUEST payload, the value of the Length field is 0.  When
 the MIP6_HOME_PREFIX attribute is included in the CFG_REPLY payload
 by the Home Agent, the value of the Length field is 21 and the
 attribute contains also the home prefix information.

9. Security Considerations

9.1. HA Address Discovery

 Use of DNS for address discovery carries certain security risks.  DNS
 transactions in the Internet are typically done without any
 authentication of the DNS server by the client or of the client by
 the server.  There are two risks involved:
 1.  A legitimate client obtains a bogus Home Agent address from a
     bogus DNS server.  This is sometimes called a "pharming" attack.
 2.  An attacking client obtains a legitimate Home Agent address from
     a legitimate server.
 The risk in Case 1 is mitigated because the Mobile Node is required
 to conduct an IKE transaction with the Home Agent prior to performing
 a Binding Update to establish Mobile IPv6 service.  According to the
 IKEv2 specification [5], the responder must present the initiator
 with a valid certificate containing the responder's public key, and
 the responder to initiator IKE_AUTH message must be protected with an
 authenticator calculated using the public key in the certificate.
 Thus, an attacker would have to set up both a bogus DNS server and a
 bogus Home Agent, and provision the Home Agent with a certificate
 that a victim Mobile Node could verify.  If the Mobile Node can
 detect that the certificate is not trustworthy, the attack will be
 foiled when the Mobile Node attempts to set up the IKE SA.
 The risk in Case 2 is limited for a single Mobile Node to Home Agent
 transaction if the attacker does not possess proper credentials to
 authenticate with the Home Agent.  The IKE SA establishment will fail
 when the attacking Mobile Node attempts to authenticate itself with
 the Home Agent.  Regardless of whether the Home Agent utilizes EAP or
 host-side certificates to authenticate the Mobile Node, the
 authentication will fail unless the Mobile Node has valid
 credentials.
 Another risk exists in Case 2 because the attacker may be attempting
 to propagate a Denial of Service (DoS) attack on the Home Agent.  In
 that case, the attacker obtains the Home Agent address from the DNS,
 then propagates the address to a network of attacking hosts that
 bombard the Home Agent with traffic.  This attack is not unique to

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 20] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

 the bootstrapping solution, however, it is actually a risk that any
 Mobile IPv6 Home Agent installation faces.  In fact, the risk is
 faced by any service in the Internet that distributes a unicast
 globally routable address to clients.  Since Mobile IPv6 requires
 that the Mobile Node communicate through a globally routable unicast
 address of a Home Agent, it is possible that the Home Agent address
 could be propagated to an attacker by various means (theft of the
 Mobile Node, malware installed on the Mobile Node, evil intent of the
 Mobile Node owner him/herself, etc.) even if the home address is
 manually configured on the Mobile Node.  Consequently, every Mobile
 IPv6 Home Agent installation will likely be required to mount anti-
 DoS measures.  Such measures include overprovisioning of links to and
 from Home Agents and of Home Agent processing capacity, vigilant
 monitoring of traffic on the Home Agent networks to detect when
 traffic volume increases abnormally indicating a possible DoS attack,
 and hot spares that can quickly be switched on in the event an attack
 is mounted on an operating collection of Home Agents.  DoS attacks of
 moderate intensity should be foiled during the IKEv2 transaction.
 IKEv2 implementations are expected to generate their cookies without
 any saved state, and to time out cookie generation parameters
 frequently, with the timeout value increasing if a DoS attack is
 suspected.  This should prevent state depletion attacks, and should
 assure continued service to legitimate clients until the practical
 limits on the network bandwidth and processing capacity of the Home
 Agent network are reached.
 Explicit security measures between the DNS server and host, such as
 DNSSEC [19] or TSIG/TKEY [20] [21], can mitigate the risk of 1) and
 2), but these security measures are not widely deployed on end nodes.
 These security measures are not sufficient to protect the Home Agent
 address against DoS attack, however, because a node having a
 legitimate security association with the DNS server could
 nevertheless intentionally or inadvertently cause the Home Agent
 address to become the target of DoS.
 Finally, notice that the assignment of a home agent from the serving
 network access provider's (local home agent) or a home agent from a
 nearby network (nearby home agent) may set up the potential to
 compromise a mobile node's location privacy.  A home address anchored
 at such a home agent contains some information about the topological
 location of the mobile node.  Consequently, a mobile node requiring
 location privacy should not disclose this home address to nodes that
 are not authorized to learn the mobile node's location, e.g., by
 updating DNS with the new home address.
 Security considerations for discovering HA using DHCP are covered in
 [22].

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 21] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

9.2. Home Address Assignment through IKEv2

 Mobile IPv6 bootstrapping assigns the home address through the IKEv2
 transaction.  The Mobile Node can either choose to request an
 address, similar to DHCP, or the Mobile Node can request a prefix on
 the home link, then auto-configure an address.
 RFC 3775 [1] requires that a Home Agent check authorization of a home
 address received during a Binding Update.  Therefore, the home agent
 MUST authorize each home address allocation and use.  This
 authorization is based on linking the mobile node identity used in
 the IKEv2 authentication process and the home address.  Home agents
 MUST implement at least the following two modes of authorization:
 o  Configured home address(es) for each mobile node.  In this mode,
    the home agent or infrastructure nodes behind it know what
    addresses a specific mobile node is authorized to use.  The mobile
    node is allowed to request these addresses, or if the mobile node
    requests any home address, these addresses are returned to it.
 o  First-come-first-served (FCFS).  In this mode, the home agent
    maintains a pool of "used" addresses, and allows mobile nodes to
    request any address, as long as it is not used by another mobile
    node.
 Addresses MUST be marked as used for at least as long as the binding
 exists, and are associated with the identity of the mobile node that
 made the allocation.
 In addition, the home agent MUST ensure that the requested address is
 not the authorized address of any other mobile node, i.e., if both
 FCFS and configured modes use the same address space.

9.3. SA Establishment Using EAP through IKEv2

 Security considerations for authentication of the IKE transaction
 using EAP are covered in [3] .

9.4. Backend Security between the HA and AAA Server

 Some deployments of Mobile IPv6 bootstrapping may use an AAA server
 to handle authorization for mobility service.  This process has its
 own security requirements, but the backend protocol for a Home Agent
 to an AAA server interface is not covered in this document.  Please
 see [16] for a discussion of this interface.

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 22] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

9.5. Dynamic DNS Update

 If a Home Agent performs dynamic DNS update on behalf of the Mobile
 Node directly with the DNS server, the Home Agent MUST have a
 security association of some type with the DNS server.  The security
 association MAY be established either using DNSSEC [19] or TSIG/TKEY
 [20][21].  A security association is REQUIRED even if the DNS server
 is in the same administrative domain as the Home Agent.  The security
 association SHOULD be separate from the security associations used
 for other purposes, such as AAA.
 In the case where the Mobility Service Provider is different from the
 Mobility Service Authorizer, the network administrators may want to
 limit the number of cross-administrative domain security
 associations.  If the Mobile Node's FQDN is in the Mobility Service
 Authorizer's domain, since a security association for AAA signaling
 involved in mobility service authorization is required in any case,
 the Home Agent can send the Mobile Node's FQDN to the AAA server
 under the HA-AAA server security association, and the AAA server can
 perform the update.  In that case, a security association is required
 between the AAA server and DNS server for the dynamic DNS update.
 See [16] for a deeper discussion of the Home Agent to AAA server
 interface.
 Regardless of whether the AAA server or Home Agent performs DNS
 update, the authorization of the Mobile Node to update a FQDN MUST be
 checked prior to the performance of the update.  It is an
 implementation issue as to how authorization is determined.  However,
 in order to allow this authorization step, the Mobile Node MUST use a
 FQDN as the IDi in IKE_AUTH step of the IKEv2 exchange.  The FQDN
 MUST be the same as the FQDN that will be provided by the Mobile Node
 in the DNS Update Option.
 In case EAP over IKEv2 is used to set-up the IPsec SA, the Home Agent
 gets authorization information about the Mobile Node's FQDN via the
 AAA back end communication performed during IKEv2 exchange.  The
 outcome of this step will give the Home Agent the necessary
 information to authorize the DNS update request of the Mobile Node.
 See [16] for details about the communication between the AAA server
 and the Home Agent needed to perform the authorization.
 In case certificates are used in IKEv2, the authorization information
 about the FQDN for DNS update MUST be present in the certificate
 provided by the Mobile Node.  Since the IKEv2 specification does not
 include a required certificate type, it is not possible to specify
 precisely how the Mobile Node's FQDN should appear in the

Giaretta, et al. Standards Track [Page 23] RFC 5026 MIP6 Bootstrapping in Split Scenario October 2007

 certificate.  However, as an example, if the certificate type is
 "X.509 Certificate - Signature" (one of the recommended types), then
 the FQDN may appear in the subjectAltName attribute extension [23].

10. IANA Considerations

 This document defines a new Mobility Option and a new IKEv2
 Configuration Attribute Type.
 The following values have been assigned:
 o  from the "Mobility Option" namespace ([1]): DNS-UPDATE-TYPE, 17
    (Section 8.1)
 o  from the "IKEv2 Configuration Payload Attribute Types" namespace
    ([5]): MIP6_HOME_PREFIX attribute, 16 (Section 8.2)
 o  from the "IKEv2 Notify Payload Error Types" namespace ([5]):
    USE_ASSIGNED_HoA error type, 42 (Section 5.3.2)
 This document creates a new name space "Status Codes (DNS Update
 Mobility Option)" for the status field in the DNS Update mobility
 option.  The current values are described in Section 8.1 and are
 listed below.
      0 DNS update performed
    128 Reason unspecified
    129 Administratively prohibited
    130 DNS update failed
 Future values of the Status field in the DNS Update mobility option
 can be allocated using Standards Action or IESG approval.
