Calhoun Airespace March 2005Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA)Registration Keys for Mobile IPv4Status of this Memo 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.Copyright Notice Copyright (C) The Internet Society (2005).Abstract Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) servers, such as RADIUS and DIAMETER, are in use within the Internet today to provide authentication and authorization services for dial-up computers. Mobile IP for IPv4 requires strong authentication between the mobile node and its home agent. When the mobile node shares an AAA Security Association with its home AAA server, however, it is possible to use that AAA Security Association to create derived Mobility Security Associations between the mobile node and its home agent, and again between the mobile node and the foreign agent currently offering connectivity to the mobile node. This document specifies extensions to Mobile IP registration messages that can be used to create Mobility Security Associations between the mobile node and its home agent, and/or between the mobile node and a foreign agent.Perkins & Calhoun Standards Track [Page 1]

Introduction AAA servers, such as RADIUS [11] and DIAMETER [12], are in use within the Internet today to provide authentication and authorization services for dial-up computers. Such services are likely to be valuable for mobile nodes using Mobile IP for IPv4 [1], when the nodes are attempting to connect to foreign domains with AAA servers. In this document Mobile IP for IPv4 is called "Mobile IPv4" or just "Mobile IP" for short, since no confusion with other versions is expected. Requirements for interactions between AAA and Mobile IP are outlined inRFC 2977 [13]; that document describes an infrastructure which enables AAA servers to authenticate and authorize network access requests from mobile nodes. See alsoappendix A. The Mobile IP Registration Request is considered to be a request for network access. It is then possible to augment the functionality of the Mobile IP mobility agents so that they can translate between Mobile IP registration messages and the messages used within the AAA infrastructure, as described inRFC 2977. Mobility agents and AAA servers that conform to the requirements ofRFC 2977 can be considered as appropriate network entities to support the message types specified in this document. Please consultRFC2977 [13] for further details.Perkins & Calhoun Standards Track [Page 2]
RFC 3957 AAA Keys for Mobile IPv4 March 2005 This specification makes use of a single AAA Security Association to create derivative Mobility Security Associations. A Mobility Security Association in this specification is a simplex connection that serves to authenticate MIPv4 control traffic between a MN and HA and/or a MN and FA. A Mobility Security Association is identified by the two end points, such as a MN IP address and a HA IP address, and a SPI. Two nodes may have one or more Mobility Security Associations established between each other; however, typically there is no reason to have more than one Mobility Security Association between two nodes. This document specifies extensions to Mobile IP registration messages that can be used to create Mobility Security Associations between the MN and FA and/or MN and HA based on the AAA Security Association between the MN and AAA server. These new Mobility Security Associations may then be used to calculate the Authentication Data needed by authentication extensions used in Mobile IP control messages. It is assumed that the security association between the mobile node and its AAA server has been appropriately configured so that the AAA server can provide key material to be used as the basis for the necessary Mobility Security Association(s) between the mobile node and its prospective mobility agents. AAA servers typically use the Network Access Identifier (NAI) [2] to uniquely identify the mobile node; the mobile node's home address is not always necessary to provide that function. Thus, it is possible for a mobile node to authenticate itself, and be authorized for connection to the foreign domain, without having any home address. However, for Mobile IP to work, the mobile node is required to have a home address and a Mobility Security Association [1] with its home agent. When the Mobile IP Registration Reply packet is authenticated by the MN-AAA Authentication Extension [3], the mobile node can verify that the key material contained in the extensions were produced by the AAA server, and thus may be reliably used to create Mobility Security Associations with the home agent and/or the foreign agent. It is also assumed that the AAA entities involved (i.e., the AAAH, AAAL, and the AAA interface features of the foreign agents and home agents) all have means outside of the scope of this document for exchanging keys. The extensions within this document are intended to work with any AAA protocol suite that allows for such key exchange, as long as it satisfies the requirements specified inRFC 2977 [13]. One such AAA protocol is defined within the Diameter framework [14].Perkins & Calhoun Standards Track [Page 3]
RFC 3957 AAA Keys for Mobile IPv4 March 20052. 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 [4]. AAA Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (see [10]). AAA entity A network node processing AAA messages according to the requirements for AAA protocols (see [10]). AAA Security Association A security association between a AAA entity and another node needing the services of that AAA entity. In this document all AAA Security Associations are between a mobile node and its home AAA server (AAAH). A mobile node's AAA Security Association with its home AAA server (AAAH) may be based either on the mobile node's IP address or on its NAI [2]. The key is referred to as "AAA-key" in this specification. Key A number, kept secret. Only nodes in possession of the key have any hope of using the security transform to obtain correct results. Key Generation Nonce Nonce data used for the purpose of creating a key. Mobility Security Association A Mobility Security Association is a simplex connection that applies security services toRFC 3344 MIPv4 control traffic between a MN and HA (or MN and FA) usingRFC 3344 Authentication Extensions. A Mobility Security Association is uniquely identified by the peer source and destination IP addresses and an SPI. Two nodes may have one or more Mobility Security Associations; however, typically there is no reason to have more than one Mobility Security Association between two nodes, except as a transient condition during re-keying events. Registration Key A key used in the MN-FA or MN-HA Mobility Security Association. A registration key is typically only used once or a very few times, and only for the purposes of verifying a small volume of Authentication data.Perkins & Calhoun Standards Track [Page 4]
RFC 3957 AAA Keys for Mobile IPv4 March 2005 Security Algorithm A set of rules for using input data and a secret key for producing data for use in security protocols. SPI Security Parameters Index. The SPI is an arbitrary 32-bit value that assists in the identification of an AAA, IP, or Mobility Security Association. Other terminology is used as defined in the base Mobile IP specification [1]. Furthermore, in order to simplify the discussion, we have used the word "Extension" instead of "Subtype of the Generalized Extension" in many cases. So, for instance, instead of using the phrase "The MN-FA Key Generation Nonce From AAA Subtype of the Generalized MN-FA Key Generation Nonce Reply Extension", we would instead use the phrase "The MN-FA Key Generation Nonce From AAA Extension".3. Overview of Operations with Key Generation Nonce Extensions When a mobile node depends on an AAA infrastructure to obtain authorization for network connectivity and Mobile IP registration, it may lack any pre-existing Mobility Security Associations with either its home agent, or the foreign agent controlling the access to the foreign network. The extensions defined in this document allow a AAA entity to supply key material to mobile nodes to be used as the basis of its Mobility Security Association with mobile agents. The AAA entity that will act on these extensions is part of the AAA infrastructure, and is typically identified within the foreign domain by methods outside the scope of this specification (seeappendix A). The key material may be requested by the mobile node in new extensions (defined below) to Mobile IP Registration Request messages, and supplied to the mobile node in extensions to the Mobile IP Registration Reply messages. Alternatively, the AAA server MAY provide unsolicited key material via mobility agents to mobile nodes; the mobile node MUST then calculate new keys and update or create its relevant Mobility Security Association. The method by which key material is supplied to the mobility agents themselves is out of scope for this document, and would depend on the particular details of the security architecture for the AAA servers in the foreign and home domains (seeRFC 2977 andappendix A). For the purposes of this document, we assume that there is a suitable AAA infrastructure available to the home and foreign agents, and that the mobile node does have an AAA Security Association with at least one AAA server in its home domain.Perkins & Calhoun Standards Track [Page 5]
RFC 3957 AAA Keys for Mobile IPv4 March 2005 When a mobile node travels away from home, it may not have a Mobility Security Association with its home agent, perhaps because it does not yet have a home address [5]. The protocol and messages in this document are intended to facilitate the following operations which may occur between the mobile node, foreign agent, home agent, and AAA servers in the visited (local) domain (Authentication, Authorization and Accounting Local or AAAL) and in the home domain (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting Home or AAAH). In the following sequence of messages, the only message flows specified in this document are the Registration Request between the mobile node and the foreign agent, and Registration Reply between the foreign agent and the mobile node. The other messages described here result from the presumed action of the AAA entities as described inRFC 2977. See alsoappendix B. 1. If the mobile node does not have a Mobility Security Association with the foreign agent, it SHOULD include an MN-FA Key Generation Nonce Request extension (seeSection 6.1) as part of its Registration Request that it sends to the Foreign Agent. 2. If the mobile node does not have a Mobility Security Association with the home agent, it MUST add an MN-HA Key Generation Nonce Request extension (seeSection 6.3) as part of its Registration Request that it sends to the Foreign Agent. 3. If one or more AAA Key Generation Nonce Request extensions were added, the mobile node MUST add the MN-AAA Authentication extension to its Registration Request. 4. By action of the foreign agent, which is presumed to be also a AAA entity, the mobile node's key requests and authentication data are transferred to the local AAA server (AAAL), typically after reformatting to fit into the appropriate AAA messages, which are out of scope for this document. 5. After the information within the MN-AAA Authentication extension is verified by the AAA server in the home domain (AAAH), it then also generates the key material that has been requested by the mobile node, for the necessary Mobility Security Associations. 6. The respective keys for the Mobility Security Associations are distributed to the Home Agent and Foreign Agent via the AAA protocol. 7. The mobile node receives the Registration Reply message from the Foreign Agent.Perkins & Calhoun Standards Track [Page 6]
RFC 3957 AAA Keys for Mobile IPv4 March 2005 8. If a MN-HA Key Generation Nonce Request From AAA extension is present in the Registration Request message, then the mobile node MUST create or update its Mobility Security Association with the Home Agent indicated in the corresponding Registration Reply, using the key computed from the key material in the MN-HA Key Generation Nonce From AAA extension. In this case, if no MN-HA Key Generation Nonce Reply extension is present, the mobile node MUST discard the Registration Reply. 9. Using its (perhaps newly created) Mobility Security Association with the home agent, the mobile node authenticates the Registration Reply message by checking the Authentication Data in the Mobile-Home Authentication extension. If the check fails, the MN MUST discard the Registration Reply and the new Mobility Security Association, reverting to the old Mobility Security Association with the home agent, if any. 10. If the Registration Reply passes authentication and contains a MN-FA Key Generation Nonce From AAA extension (seesection 6.2), the mobile node generates the registration key using the Key Generation Nonce provided, according to its AAA Security Association with the AAA. The resulting registration key is used to establish the mobile node's Mobility Security Association with its foreign agent, and is used to compute the authentication data used in the Mobile-Foreign authentication extension. If verification of the Mobile-Foreign authentication extension fails, and if the MN-FA Key Generation Nonce Reply extension was not protected by another, valid authentication extension, the MN MUST discard the new Mobility Security Association, reverting to the old Mobility Security Association with the foreign agent, if any. Any registration reply containing the MN-HA Key Generation Nonce From AAA extension MUST also contain a subsequent Mobile Home Authentication extension, created using the generated MN-HA key. Similarly, a reply containing the MN-FA Key Generation Nonce From AAA extension MUST also contain a subsequent Mobile Foreign Authentication extension, created using the registration key.4. Mobility Security Associations Mobility Security Associations between Mobile IP entities (mobile nodes, home agents, foreign agents) contain both the necessary cryptographic key information and a way to identify the cryptographic transform that uses the key to produce the authentication information that is present in the Mobile-Home Authentication extension or the Mobile-Foreign Authentication extension. In order for the mobilePerkins & Calhoun Standards Track [Page 7]
RFC 3957 AAA Keys for Mobile IPv4 March 2005 node to make use of key material created by the AAA server, the mobile node also has to be able to identify and select the appropriate cryptographic transform that uses the key to produce the authentication. The transform identifiers are the same as those used in IPsec. They are tabulated in the list of Authentication Algorithms allowable as values for the "Attribute Type" (5) (i.e., "Authentication Algorithm"), one of the classifications in the tabulated Attribute Types for "IPsec Security Association Attributes". Seehttp://www.iana.org/assignments/isakmp-registry for the full listing of all Attribute Types and other Attributes for IPsec Security Associations. Mobility Security Associations shared between mobile nodes and home agents also require a replay protection method. The following table contains the supported replay detection methods. Replay Method Name Reference -------------- ------------ -------------- 0,1 Reserved 2 TimestampsRFC 3344 [1] 3 NoncesRFC 3344 [1] 4-65535 Unallocated5. Key Generation Nonce Creation and Key Derivation This section contains the procedures followed in the creation of the Key Generation Nonce by AAA servers, and the key derivation procedures used by mobile nodes. Note that the AAA servers will also deliver the keys to the mobility agents (home agent, foreign agent) via the AAA protocol. AAA servers that follow these procedures will produce results that can be understood by mobile nodes. The mobility agents will faithfully transcribe the results into the appropriate Mobile IP extensions. The following example uses HMAC-SHA1 [6]. All mobile nodes and mobility agents implementing Mobile IP [1] and implementing the extensions specified in this document MUST implement HMAC-SHA1 [1]. Other message authentication codes or keyed hash functions MAY also be used. The particular algorithm used is configured as part of the AAA Security Association between the MN and the AAAH server, which is in turn indexed by the AAA SPI.Perkins & Calhoun Standards Track [Page 8]
RFC 3957 AAA Keys for Mobile IPv4 March 2005 The following steps are performed on the AAAH server: 1. The AAA server identifies the mobile node. If the NAI field is present in the Registration Request, then the NAI is used as the mobile node identifier. Otherwise, the Home Address field of the Registration Request is used. 2. The AAA server generates a random [7] value of at least 128 bits to be used as the Key Generation Nonce. 3. The AAA server inserts the random value into the Key Generation Nonce Reply extension in the "Key Generation Nonce" field. The following steps are performed by the mobile node (here || represents concatenation): 1. The mobile node calculates key = HMAC-SHA1 (AAA-key, {Key Generation Nonce || mobile node identifier}) Here the Key Generation Nonce is from the extension in the Registration Reply, and the mobile node identifier is the MN's NAI, if present in the Registration Request, or the Home Address from the Registration Request otherwise. 2. The mobile node creates the Mobility Security Association(s), using the resulting key and the other relevant information in the Key Generation Nonce Extension. The secret key used within the HMAC-SHA1 computation is indicated by the AAA Security Association indexed by the AAA SPI, which has been previously configured as the basis for the AAA Security Association between the mobile node and the AAA server creating the key material.6.

MN-FA Key Generation Nonce Reply Subtype Data An encoded copy of the keying material, along with any other information needed by the recipient to create the designated Mobility Security Association. For each subtype, the format of the MN-FA Key Generation Nonce Reply Subtype Data has to be separately defined according to the particular method required to set up the Mobility Security Association. For the subtype defined in this document, the MN-FA Key Generation Nonce supplied in the data for a subtype of this extension may come as a result of a request which was sent using a subtype of the Generalized MN-FA Key Generation Nonce Request Extension. In suchPerkins & Calhoun Standards Track [Page 11]
RFC 3957 AAA Keys for Mobile IPv4 March 2005 cases, the SPI to be used when employing the Mobility Security Association defined by the registration key is the same as given in the original request. Once the mobile node creates the Mobility Security Association with the foreign agent, by using the transform indexed by the AAA SPI, it stores that Mobility Security Association indexed by the FA SPI in its list of Mobile Security Associations. If the foreign agent receives a Registration Reply that has no MN-FA Key Generation Nonce Reply extension, and if it has no existing Mobility Security Association with the mobile node, the foreign agent MAY change the Code value of the Registration Reply to MISSING_MN_FA (seesection 7), effectively causing the registration to fail.

RFC 3957 AAA Keys for Mobile IPv4 March 2005 Algorithm Identifier This field indicates the transform to be used for future computations of the Mobile-Home Authentication Extension (seesection 4). Replay Method This field contains the replay method to be used for future Registration messages (seesection 4). Key Generation Nonce A random [7] value of at least 128 bits. The MN-HA AAA KeyGen Reply subtype-specific data is shown in figure 6. The Mobile Node calculates the MN-HA key using the Key Generation Nonce provided by the AAA server. The calculation proceeds by using the key shared between the mobile node and the AAA server that has previously been configured for securing all such communication requirements with the AAA server which will be contacted within the AAA infrastructure (seeappendix A). The MN-HA key is intended for use by the mobile node to secure future Mobile IP registrations with its home agent. The MN-HA AAA KeyGen Reply extension MUST appear in the Registration Reply before the MN-HA Authentication extension. Once the mobile node creates the MN-HA Key, by using the transform specified in the AAA SPI, it stores the HA Security Information indexed by the HA SPI in its list of Mobile Security Associations. The mobile node uses the Identification field data from the Registration Reply as its initial synchronization data with the home agent.7.

IANA has assigned a code value for error MISSING_MN_FA, listed insection 7. This value has been taken from the space of error values conventionally associated with rejection by the foreign agent (i.e., 64-127). IANA has created and will maintain a namespace for the Replay Method Identifier. This specification makes use of 2 and 3; all other values other than zero (0) and (1) are available for assignment, pending review and approval by a Designated Expert [9].9. Security Considerations The extensions in this document are intended to provide the appropriate level of security for Mobile IP entities (mobile node, foreign agent, and home agent) to calculate the Authentication Data needed by authentication extensions used with Mobile IP registration messages. The Mobility Security Associations resulting from use of these extensions do not offer any higher level of security than what is already implicit in use of the AAA Security Association between the mobile node and the AAAH. In order to deny any adversary the luxury of unbounded time to analyze and break the secrecy of the AAA Security Association between the mobile node and the AAA server, that AAA Security Association MUST be refreshed periodically. The provisioning and refreshing of the AAA key in the MN and AAA server is outside the scope of this document. Since the Reply extensions defined in this specification only carry Key Generation Nonces, which are used to derive keys, they do not expose any data that could be used in an attack aimed at recoveringPerkins & Calhoun Standards Track [Page 17]

RFC 3957 AAA Keys for Mobile IPv4 March 2005Appendix A. AAA Infrastructure In this appendix, we attempt to capture the main features of a basic model for operation of AAA servers that is assumed for understanding of the use of the Mobile IP registration extensions described in this document. This information has been adapted from the discussion inRFC 2977 [13]. Within the Internet, a mobile node belonging to one administrative domain (called the home domain) often needs to use resources provided by another administrative domain (called the foreign domain). A foreign agent that handles the mobile node's Registration Request is likely to require that the mobile node provide some credentials that can be authenticated before access to the resources is permitted. These credentials may be provided as part of the Mobile-AAA Authentication extension [3], relying on the existence of an AAA infrastructure such as is described in this section, and also described inRFC 2977 andRFC 3012 [3]. Such credentials are typically managed by entities within the mobile node's home domain. They may be also used for setting up secure communications with the mobile node and the foreign agent, or between the mobile node and its home agent if necessary. Local Domain Home Domain +--------------+ +----------------------+ | +------+ | | +------+ | | | | | | | | | | | AAAL | | | | AAAH | | | | +-------------------+ | | | +---+--+ | | +------+ | | | | | | | | | +----------------------+ +------+ | +---+--+ | | | | | | | MN = mobile node | MN |- -|- -| FA | | FA = foreign agent | | | | | | AAAL = local authority +------+ | +------+ | AAAH = home authority | | +--------------+ Figure 7: AAA Servers in Home and Local Domains The foreign agent often does not have direct access to the data needed to verify the credentials. Instead, the foreign agent is expected to consult an authority (typically in the same foreign domain) in order to request proof that the mobile node has acceptable credentials. Since the foreign agent and the local authority (AAAL) are part of the same administrative domain, they are expected to havePerkins & Calhoun Standards Track [Page 20]
RFC 3957 AAA Keys for Mobile IPv4 March 2005 established, or be able to establish for the necessary lifetime, a secure channel for the purposes of exchanging sensitive (access) information, and keeping it private from (at least) the visiting mobile node. The local authority (AAAL) itself may not have enough information stored locally to carry out the verification for the credentials of the mobile node. In contrast to the foreign agent, however, the AAAL is expected to be configured with enough information to negotiate the verification of mobile node credentials with its home domain. The home and foreign domains should be configured with sufficient IP Security Associations (i.e., IPsec) and access controls so that they can negotiate the authorization, and also enable the mobile node to acquire Mobility Security Associations with the mobility agents within the foreign domain. For the purposes of the key exchanges specified within this document, the authorization is expected to depend only upon secure authentication of the mobile node's credentials. Once the authorization has been obtained by the local authority, and the authority has notified the foreign agent about the successful negotiation, the foreign agent can deliver the Registration Reply to the mobile node along with the key material. In figure 7, there might be many mobile nodes from many different Home Domains. Each Home Domain provides a AAAH that can check credentials originating from mobile nodes administered by that Home Domain. There is a security model implicit in figure 7, and it is crucial to identify the specific security associations assumed in the security model. These IP Security Associations are illustrated in figure 8, and are considered to be relatively long-lived security associations. First, it is natural to assume that the mobile node has an AAA Security Association with the AAAH, since that is roughly what it means for the mobile node to belong to the home domain. Second, from the model illustrated in figure 7 it is clear that AAAL and AAAH have to share an IP Security Association, because otherwise they could not rely on the authentication results, authorizations, nor even the accounting data which might be transacted between them. Requiring such bilateral IP Security Associations is, however, in the end not scalable; the AAA framework must provide for more scalable mechanisms, but the methods by which such a broker model is to be created are out of scope for this document. SeeRFC 2977 for more details.Perkins & Calhoun Standards Track [Page 21]
RFC 3957 AAA Keys for Mobile IPv4 March 2005 Finally, from figure 7, it is clear that the foreign agent can naturally share an IP Security Association with the AAAL. This is necessary in order for the model to work because the foreign agent has to have a way to find out that it is permissible to allocate the local resources to the mobile node, and further to transmit any successful Registration Reply to the mobile node. Figure 8 illustrates the IP Security Associations we understand from our proposed model. Note that there may be, by mutual agreement between AAAL and AAAH, a third party inserted between AAAL and AAAH to help them arbitrate secure transactions in a more scalable fashion. The broker model which has been designed to enable such third-party processing should not have any effect on the Mobile IP extensions specified in this document, and so no description is provided here; seeRFC 2977 [13] for more details. +------+ +------+ | | | | | AAAL +--------------+ AAAH | | | | | +---+--+ +--+---+ | | | | +---+--+ +--+---+ MN = mobile node | | | | FA = foreign agent | FA | | MN | AAAL = local authority | | | | AAAH = home authority +------+ +------+ Figure 8: IP Security Associations Nodes in two separate administrative domains (for instance, AAAH and AAAL) often must take additional steps to verify the identity of their communication partners, or alternatively to guarantee the privacy of the data making up the communication. While these considerations lead to important security requirements, as mentioned above in the context of security between servers, we consider the exact choice of IP Security Associations between the AAA servers to be beyond the scope of this document. The choices are unlikely to depend upon Mobile IP, or any specific features of the general model illustrated in figure 7. On the other hand, the Mobility Security Associations needed between Mobile IP entities are of central importance in the design of the key derivation extensions in this document.Perkins & Calhoun Standards Track [Page 22]
RFC 3957 AAA Keys for Mobile IPv4 March 2005 One further detail deserves mention. The Mobility Security Association to be established between the mobile node and the foreign agent has to be communicated to the foreign agent as well as to the mobile node. The following requirements are placed on the mechanism used by the AAA infrastructure to effect key distribution: - The AAAH must establish strong, fresh session keys. - The mechanism must maintain algorithm independence, allowing for the distribution of authentication algorithm identification along with the keys. - The mechanism must include replay detection. - The mechanism must authenticate all parties, including the AAA servers and the FA and HA. - The mechanism must provide for authorization of the client, FA, and HA. - The mechanism must not rely on plaintext passwords. - The mechanism must maintain confidentiality of session keys. - The mechanism must uniquely name session keys. - The mechanism must be such that the compromise of a single FA and HA cannot compromise any other part of the system, including session keys and long-term keys - The mechanism must bind key(s) to an appropriate context - The mechanism must not expose the keys to entities other than the AAAH and FA (or HA in the case of key distribution to the HA). The way that the key is distributed to the foreign agent (or home agent) is expected to be handled as part of the AAA protocol processing between the AAAH and AAAL, and the further AAA protocol processing between the AAAL and the foreign agent. Such processing is outside the scope of this document, but must satisfy the above requirements.Perkins & Calhoun Standards Track [Page 23]
RFC 3957 AAA Keys for Mobile IPv4 March 2005Appendix B. Message Flow for Requesting and Receiving Registration Keys In this section, we show message flows for requesting and receiving a registration key from the AAA infrastructure, described in section A. Challenge values, as specified in [3], might be added to the Advertisement and Registration messages for additional replay protection, but are not illustrated here. Diagram 9 illustrates the message flow for the case when the mobile node explicitly requests keying material to create registration keys. MN FA AAA Infrastructure | | | |<--- Advertisement-----| | | (if needed) | | | | | |-- RReq+AAA Key Req.-->| | | |--- RReq + AAA Key Req.--->| | | | | |<--- RRep + AAA Key Rep.---| |<-- RRep+AAA Key Rep.--| | | | | Figure 9: Message Flows for Requesting and Receiving Key Generation Nonce In diagram 9, the following message flow is illustrated: 1. The foreign agent disseminates an Agent Advertisement. This advertisement MAY have been produced after receiving an Agent Solicitation from the mobile node (not shown in the diagram). 2. The mobile node creates a Registration Request including the MN-HA AAA KeyGen Request and/or MN-FA AAA KeyGen Request, as needed, along with an authorization-enabling authentication extension as required by Mobile IP [1]. 3. The foreign agent relays the Registration Request and/or Key Request(s) to its locally configured AAA Infrastructure (seeappendix A), according to local policy. 4. The foreign agent receives a AAA Response with the appropriate indications for authorizing connectivity for the mobile node. Along with this AAA Response, the foreign agent may also receive key material by some secure method appropriate for communications between it and its local AAA infrastructure. At this point if thePerkins & Calhoun Standards Track [Page 24]
RFC 3957 AAA Keys for Mobile IPv4 March 2005 foreign agent has not relayed the Registration Request, it forwards it directly to the Home Agent and waits for a Registration Reply (not shown in the figure). 5. The foreign agent relays the Registration Reply to the mobile node, along with the new AAA KeyGen Reply extensions to be used by the mobile node to establish Mobility Security Associations with the relevant mobility agents (foreign agent and/or home agent). Diagram 10 illustrates the message flow for the case when the mobile node receives unsolicited keying material from the AAA Infrastructure.

The foreign agent disseminates an Agent Advertisement. This advertisement MAY have been produced after receiving an Agent Solicitation from the mobile node (not shown in the diagram). 2. The mobile node creates a Registration Request including an authorization-enabling authentication extension as required by Mobile IP [1]. 3. The foreign agent sends a AAA Request (possibly containing the Registration Request) to its locally configured AAA Infrastructure (seeappendix A), according to local policy. 4. The foreign agent receives a AAA Response with the appropriate indications for authorizing connectivity for the mobile node. Along with this AAA Response, the foreign agent may also receive key material by some secure method appropriate for communications between it and its local AAA infrastructure. At this point, if the foreign agent has not relayed the Registration Request, itPerkins & Calhoun Standards Track [Page 25]
