Introduction   Mobile IPv4 [MOBILEIP] allows a Mobile Node (MN) to change its point   of attachment to the Internet while maintaining its fixed home   address.  Packets directed to the home address are intercepted by a   Home Agent (HA), encapsulated in a tunnel, and forwarded to the MN at   its current point of attachment.  Optionally, a Foreign Agent (FA)   may be deployed at this point of attachment, which can serve as the   tunnel endpoint and may also provide access control for the visited   network link.  In this role, the FA has to authenticate each MN that   may attach to it, whether the MN is from the same or a different   administrative domain.  The FA has to verify that the MN is   authorized to attach and use resources in the foreign domain.  Also,   the FA must provide information to the home administrative domain   about the resources used by the MN while it is attached in the   foreign domain.   The Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) requirements   for Mobile IPv4 are described in detail in other documents [MIPREQ,   CDMA2000].  This document specifies a Diameter application to meet   these requirements.  This application is not applicable to the Mobile   IPv6 protocol.Calhoun, et al.             Standards Track                     [Page 3]

RFC 4004                      Diameter MIP                   August 2005   Message formats (e.g., as insection 5.1) are specified as lists of   Attribute-Value Pairs (AVPs) using the syntax as described inRFC2234 [ABNF].  This includes the use of the "*" symbol to denote zero   or more occurrences of an AVP.Conventions Used in This Document   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 inRFC 2119 [KEYWORDS].1.1.  Entities and Relationships   The Diameter Mobile IPv4 Application supports the HA and FA in   providing Mobile IPv4 service to MNs.  Both the HA and FA act as   Diameter clients.  The MNs interact with the HA and FA by using only   Mobile IPv4 and therefore do not implement Diameter.   The FA, when present, is always assumed to exist in the visited   administrative domain.  The HA may be statically or dynamically   allocated to the MN in the home administrative domain or may be   dynamically allocated to the MN in a visited administrative domain.   The home domain contains a home AAA server (AAAH), and the visited   domain contains a foreign AAA server (AAAF).  When the MN is "at   home" (present on its home network), the AAAH and AAAF may be the   same.1.2.  Mobility Security Associations   The base Mobile IPv4 protocol [MOBILEIP] assumes the existence of a   Mobility Security Association (MSA) between the MN and HA (MN-HA   MSA).  The MN-HA MSA is used to authenticate, by using a keyed hash-   style algorithm, the Mobile IP Registration Request that is sent from   the MN to the HA.  It is important to authenticate Registration   Requests, as they inform the HA about the MN's current Care-of-   Address, which is the destination for tunneled packets from the home   network.  Without authentication, malicious attackers would be able   to redirect packets to anywhere on the Internet.  The MSA comprises   an agreement on a Security Parameters Index (SPI, a 32-bit number)   that will be used to refer to the MSA, an algorithm that will be used   to compute keyed hashes over messages, and a shared secret key.  To   enable authentication of a message, the sender appends a Mobile IP   Authentication Extension that contains the SPI and the result of   running the keyed hash over the entire previous contents of the   message.  The recipient checks the Authentication Extension by   looking up the MSA based on the SPI, re-computing the keyed hash, and   verifying that the result is equal to the contents of the received   Authentication Extension.Calhoun, et al.             Standards Track                     [Page 4]

RFC 4004                      Diameter MIP                   August 2005   The base Mobile IPv4 protocol also supports an optional MSA between   the MN and FA (MN-FA MSA).  If available, the MN-FA MSA is used by   the FA to authenticate each Registration Request passing through it   on the way to the HA.  Although not critical to the operation of the   base protocol, the MN-FA MSA is useful when the FA has to know the   authenticity of a Registration Request; e.g., when it will be   generating accounting records for a session.  The MN-FA MSA may also   be useful in future work related to handoff optimization.   Similarly, Mobile IPv4 supports an optional MSA between the FA and HA   (FA-HA MSA).  The FA-HA MSA is useful for authenticating messages   between the FA and HA, such as when the HA seeks to inform the FA   that it has revoked a Mobile IP registration.   Note that configuration of MSAs that involve FAs is substantially   more difficult than configuring the one between the MN and HA,   because the MN and HA are often in the same administrative domain and   the MN will retain the same HA for long periods of time.  In   contrast, the MN is likely to encounter many FAs over time and may   often find itself in foreign administrative domains.   The base Mobile IPv4 protocol assumes that MNs are identified by   their static home IP addresses and that all MSAs are statically   preconfigured.  The Diameter Mobile IPv4 application, together with   extensions [MIPNAI,MIPCHAL,MIPKEYS,AAANAI] to the base Mobile IPv4   protocol, allows an MN to be dynamically assigned a home address   and/or home agent when it attaches to the Internet.  This set of   specifications also supports the dynamic configuration of the MN-HA,   MN-FA, and FA-HA MSAs.  The dynamic configuration of these   relationships is important to support deployments in which the MN can   attach to a visited network without having a pre-established   relationship with it.   Initially, the MN is assumed to have a long-term AAA security   association only with the AAAH.  This security association is indexed   by the MN's NAI, and, like the MSAs, comprises an agreement on a SPI,   an algorithm, and a shared secret key.  The MN enters a visited   network and requests service from some FA by sending a Mobile IPv4   Registration Request.  The FA contacts an AAAF in its own   administrative domain to authenticate and authorize the request for   service.  The AAAF and AAAH may establish a Diameter session directly   with each other, such as via a Diameter Redirect, or may pass   messages via a network of Diameter proxies.  Where the AAAF and AAAH   route messages to each other through proxies, rather than a direct   connection, transitive trust is assumed.  MNs can include their   Network Access Identifier (NAI) in a Mobile IPv4 Registration Request   [MIPNAI], which serves in place of the home address to identify the   MN.  The NAI is used to route Diameter messages toward the correctCalhoun, et al.             Standards Track                     [Page 5]

RFC 4004                      Diameter MIP                   August 2005   AAAH.  This use of the NAI is consistent with the roaming model   defined by the ROAMOPS Working Group [EVALROAM,RFC2607].   The AAAH can authenticate the Registration Request with the use of   the MN-AAA security association [MIPCHAL].  If authentication is   successful, the AAAH then generates and distributes MSAs to the MN,   HA, and FA.  For each of the MSA pairs that involve the MN (i.e.,   MN-HA/HA-MN MSAs and MN-FA/FA-MN MSAs), the AAAH generates a nonce   and then hashes it together with the MN-AAA shared key to derive the   session key for the MSA pair.  The nonces are sent to the HA that   includes them in the Registration Reply, which enables the MN to   derive the same keys [MIPKEYS].  At the same time, the AAAH must   distribute the MN-HA/HA-MN MSAs and the FA-HA/HA-FA MSAs to the HA   and must distribute the MN-FA/FA-MN MSAs and the FA-HA/HA-FA MSAs to   the FA.  These are sent in Diameter AVPs and must be independently   secured by using IPSec or TLS between the AAAH and the FA and between   the AAAH and the HA.  Seesection 8 for more information on key   derivation and distribution.   Note that MSAs in Mobile IP are unidirectional in that, for example,   the MN-HA MSA (used to protect traffic from the MN to the HA) and the   HA-MN MSA (used to protect traffic from the HA to the MN) can use   different SPIs, algorithms, and shared secrets.  This is true of the   base Mobile IP protocol despite common existing practice during   manual configuration of MSAs in which all parameters are set to the   same value in both directions.  This document supports the use of   different SPIs in each direction; however, it only supports the   distribution of a single session key for each pair of MSAs between   two nodes.  The security implications of this are discussed insection 13.  This document sometimes names only one of the two   unidirectional MSAs when referring to the distribution of the single   shared secret and the pair of SPIs for the pair of MSAs between two   entities.1.3.  Handoff   In addition to supporting the derivation and transport of the MN-HA,   MN-FA, and FA-HA MSAs, this application also supports MIPv4 handoff.   When an MN moves from one point of attachment to another, the MN can   continue the same Mobile IPv4 session by using its existing HA and   home address.   The MN accomplishes this by sending a Mobile IPv4 Registration   Request from its new point of attachment.  To enable a single set of   accounting records to be maintained for the entire session, including   handoffs, it is necessary to allow the AAAH to bind the new   registration to the pre-existing session.  To enable the Mobile IPv4   Registration Request to be routed to the same AAAH, the MN SHOULDCalhoun, et al.             Standards Track                     [Page 6]

Also, to   assist the AAAH in routing the messages to the MN's existing HA the   mobile node SHOULD include the HA NAI [AAANAI] in such re-   registrations.  If the mobile node does not support the Mobile IPv4   AAA NAI extension [AAANAI], this functionality is not available.1.4.

RFC 4004                      Diameter MIP                   August 2005   In this document, the role of the "attendant" [MIPREQ] is performed   by either the FA (when it is present in a visited network) or the HA   (for co-located mobile nodes not registering via an FA), and these   terms will be used interchangeably in the following scenarios.3.1.  Inter-Realm Mobile IPv4   When a mobile node requests service by issuing a Registration Request   to the foreign agent, the foreign agent creates the AA-Mobile-Node-   Request (AMR) message, which includes the AVPs defined insection 7.   The Home Address, Home Agent, Mobile Node NAI, and other important   fields are extracted from the registration messages for possible   inclusion as Diameter AVPs.  The AMR message is then forwarded to the   local Diameter server, known as the AAA-Foreign, or AAAF.

Use of a Redirect Server with AMR/AMA   In Figure 3, the FA sets up a TLS [TLS] or IPSec [IPSEC]-based   security association with the AAAH directly and runs the AMR/AMA   exchange over it.  This provides end-to-end security for secret keys   that may have to be distributed.   Figure 4 shows the interaction between the AAAH and HA with the help   of a redirect agent.  When the AAAH and HA are in the same network,   it is likely that the AAAH knows the IP address of the HA, so the   redirect server would therefore not be needed; however, it is shown   anyway for completeness.  The redirect server will most likely be   used in the case where the HA is allocated in a foreign network (seesection 3.2 for more details of HA allocation in foreign networks).Calhoun, et al.

Use of a Redirect Server with HAR/HAA   As in Figure 2, the FA of Figure 3 would still provide the challenge   and the mobile sends the RRQ, etc.; however, these steps were   eliminated from Figure 3 to reduce clutter.  The redirect server   eliminates the AAAF and any other Diameter agents from seeing the   keys as they are transported to the FA and HA.  Note that the message   flows in Figures 3 and 4 apply only to the initial authentication and   key exchange.  Accounting messages would still be sent via Diameter   agents, not via the direct connection, unless network policies   dictate otherwise.   A mobile node that supports the AAA NAI extension [AAANAI], which has   been previously authenticated and authorized, MUST always include the   assigned home agent in the HA Identity subtype of the AAA NAI   extension, and the authorizing Home AAA server in the AAAH Identity   subtype of the AAA NAI extension, when re-authenticating.  Therefore,   in the event that the AMR generated by the FA is for a session that   was previously authorized, it MUST include the Destination-Host AVP,   with the identity of the AAAH found in the AAAH-NAI, and the MIP-   Home-Agent-Host AVP with the identity and realm of the assigned HA   found in the HA-NAI.  If, on the other hand, the mobile node does not   support the AAA NAI extension, the FA may not have the identity of   the AAAH and the identity and realm of the assigned HA.  This means   that without support of the AAA NAI extension, the FA may not be able   to guarantee that the AMR will be destined to the same AAAH, which   previously authenticated and authorized the mobile node, as the FA   may not know the identity of the AAAH.   If the mobile node was successfully authenticated, the AAAH then   determines which Home Agent to use for the session.  First, the AAAH   checks whether an HA has been requested by the MN by checking the   MIP-Home-Agent-Address AVP and the MIP-Home-Agent-Host AVP.  The   administrative domain owning the HA may be determined from the realm   portion of the MIP-Home-Agent-Host AVP, or by checking theCalhoun, et al.

If the requested   HA belongs to a permitted administrative domain, the AAAH SHOULD use   the given HA for the session.  Otherwise, the AAAH returns the   response (AMA) with the Result-Code AVP set to either   DIAMETER_ERROR_NO_FOREIGN_HA_SERVICE or   DIAMETER_ERROR_HA_NOT_AVAILABLE.   If the MN has not requested any particular HA, then an HA MUST be   dynamically allocated.  In this case the MIP-Feature-Vector will have   the Home-Agent-Requested flag set.  If the Home-Address-Allocatable-   Only-in-Home-Realm flag is not set, and if the Foreign-Home-Agent-   Available flag is set, then the AAAH SHOULD allow the foreign realm   to allocate the HA (seesection 3.2) but MAY allocate one itself in   the home realm if dictated by local policy.  If the Home-Address-   Allocatable-Only-in-Home-Realm flag is set, then the AAAH MUST   allocate an HA in the home realm on behalf of the MN.  Allocation of   the HA can be done in a variety of ways, including by using a load-   balancing algorithm to keep the load on all home agents equal.  The   actual algorithm used and the method of discovering the home agents   are outside the scope of this specification.   The AAAH then sends a Home-Agent-MIP-Request (HAR), which contains   the Mobile IPv4 Registration Request message data encapsulated in the   MIP-Reg-Request AVP, to the assigned or requested Home Agent.  Refer   to Figure 4 if the AAAH does not have a direct path to the HA.  The   AAAH MAY allocate a home address for the mobile node, and the Home   Agent MUST support home address allocation.  In the event that the   AAAH handles address allocation, it includes the home address in a   MIP-Mobile-Node-Address AVP within the HAR.  The absence of this AVP   informs the Home Agent that it must perform the home address   allocation.   Upon receipt of the HAR, the home agent first processes the Diameter   message.  The home agent processes the MIP-Reg-Request AVP and   creates the Registration Reply, encapsulating it within the MIP-Reg-   Reply AVP.  In the creation of the Registration Reply, the Home Agent   MUST include the HA NAI and the AAAH NAI, which will be created from   the Origin-Host AVP and Origin-Realm AVP of the HAR.  If a home   address is needed, the home agent MUST also assign one and include   the address in both the Registration Reply and the MIP-Mobile-Node-   Address AVP.   Upon receipt of the HAA, the AAAH creates the AA-Mobile-Node-Answer   (AMA) message, which includes the same Acct-Multi-Session-Id   contained in the HAA and the MIP-Home-Agent-Address and MIP-Mobile-Calhoun, et al.

See Figures 3 and 4 for the   use of the redirect agent for the secure transport of the HAA and AMA   messages.   Seesection 4.1 for information on the management of sessions and   session identifiers by the Diameter Mobile IPv4 entities.3.2.  Allocation of Home Agent in Foreign Network   The Diameter Mobile IPv4 application allows a home agent to be   allocated in a foreign network, as required in [MIPREQ,CDMA2000].   When a foreign agent detects that the mobile node has a home agent   address equal to 0.0.0.0 or 255.255.255.255 in the Registration   Request message, it MUST add a MIP-Feature-Vector AVP with the Home-   Agent-Requested flag set to one.  If the home agent address is set to   255.255.255.255, the foreign agent MUST set the Home-Address-   Allocatable-Only-in-Home-Realm flag equal to one.  If the home agent   address is set to 0.0.0.0, the foreign agent MUST set the Home-   Address-Allocatable-Only-in-Home-Realm flag equal to zero.   When the AAAF receives an AMR message with the Home-Agent-Requested   flag set to one and with the Home-Address-Allocatable-Only-in-Home-   Realm flag equal to zero, the AAAF MAY set the Foreign-Home-Agent-   Available flag in the MIP-Feature-Vector AVP in order to inform the   AAAH that it is willing and able to assign a Home Agent for the   mobile node.  When doing so, the AAAF MUST include the MIP-   Candidate-Home-Agent-Host AVP and the MIP-Originating-Foreign-AAA-   AVP.  The MIP-Candidate-Home-Agent-Host AVP contains the identity   (i.e., a DiameterIdentity, which is an FQDN) of the home agent that   would be assigned to the mobile node, and the MIP-Originating-   Foreign-AAA AVP contains the identity of the AAAF.  The AAAF now   sends the AMR to the AAAH.  However, as discussed above, the use of   Diameter agents between the FA and AAAH would expose the MN-FA key.   If this is deemed undesirable, a redirect server approach SHOULD be   utilized to communicate the AMR to the AAAH.  This causes the FA to   communicate the AMR directly to the AAAH via a security association.   If the mobile node with AAA NAI extension support [AAANAI] has been   previously authorized by the AAAH, now has to be re-authenticated,   and requests to keep the assigned home agent in the foreign network,   the mobile node MUST include the HA NAI and the AAAH NAI in the   registration request to the FA.  Upon receipt, the FA will create the   AMR, including the MIP-Home-Agent-Address AVP and the Destination-   Host AVP based on the AAAH NAI, and include the MIP-Home-Agent-Host   AVP based on the home agent NAI.  If the AAAF authorizes the use of   the requested home agent, the AAAF MUST set the Home-Agent-In-   Foreign-Network bit in the MIP-Feature-Vector AVP.Calhoun, et al.             Standards Track                    [Page 13]

RFC 4004                      Diameter MIP                   August 2005   If the mobile node has to be re-authenticated but does not support   the AAA NAI extension, it sends a registration request without the   AAA NAI and the HA NAI, even though it has previously been authorized   by the AAAH and requests to keep the assigned home agent in the   foreign network.  Upon receipt, the FA will create the AMR, including   the MIP-Home-Agent-Address AVP.  If the AAAF authorizes the use of   the requested home agent, and if it knows that the agent is in its   own domain, the AAAF MUST set the Home-Agent-In-Foreign-Network bit   in the MIP-Feature-Vector AVP.   When the AAAH receives an AMR message, it first checks the   authentication data supplied by the mobile node, according to the   MIP-Reg-Request AVP and MIP-MN-AAA-Auth AVP, and determines whether   to authorize the mobile node.  If the AMR indicates that the AAAF has   offered to allocate a Home Agent for the mobile node (i.e., the   Foreign-Home-Agent-Available is set in the MIP-Feature-Vector AVP),   or if the AMR indicates that the AAAF has offered a previously   allocated Home Agent for the mobile node (i.e., the Home-Agent-In-   Foreign-Network is set in the MIP-Feature-Vector AVP), then the AAAH   must decide whether its local policy would allow the user to have or   keep a home agent in the foreign network.  Assuming that the mobile   node is permitted to do so, the AAAH determines the IP address of the   HA based upon the FQDN of the HA by using DNS or learns it via an   MIP-Home-Agent-Address AVP in a redirect response to an HAR (i.e., if   the redirect server adds this AVP to the HAA).  Then it sends an HAR   message to Home Agent by including the Destination-Host AVP set to   the value found in the AMR's MIP-Candidate-Home-Agent-Host AVP or   MIP-Home-Agent-Host AVP.  If DNS is used to determine the HA IP   address, it is assumed that the HA has a public address and that it   can be resolved by DNS.   Security considerations may require that the HAR be sent directly   from the AAAH to the HA without the use of intermediary Diameter   agents.  This requires that a security association between the AAAH   and HA be established, as in Figure 4.  If no security association   can be established, the AAAH MUST return an AMA with the Result-Code   AVP set to DIAMETER_ERROR_END_TO_END_MIP_KEY_ENCRYPTION.   If Diameter agents are being used (e.g., if there is no redirect   server) the AAAH sends the HAR to the originating AAAF.  In this HAR   the Destination-Host AVP is set to the value found in the AMR's MIP-   Originating-Foreign-AAA AVP, and the MIP-Home-Agent-Host AVP or the   MIP-Candidate-Home-Agent-Host AVP found in the AMR is copied into the   HAR.   Therefore, the AAAH MUST always copy the MIP-Originating-Foreign-AAA   AVP from the AMR message to the HAR message.  In cases when another   AAAF receives the HAR, this new AAAF will send the HAR to the HA.Calhoun, et al.             Standards Track                    [Page 14]

Use of Redirect Server for Co-located CoA and AMR/AMA3.4.  Key Distribution   To allow the scaling of wireless data access across administrative   domains, it is necessary to minimize the number of pre-existing   Mobility Security Associations (MSAs) required.  This means that each   Foreign Agent should not be required to have a pre-configured MSA   with each Home Agent on the Internet, nor should the mobile node be   required to have a pre-configured MSA (as defined in [MOBILEIP]) with   any specific foreign agent.  Furthermore, when the mobile node   requests a dynamically allocated home agent, it is likely to receive   the address of a home agent for which it has no available mobility   security association.   The Diameter Mobile IPv4 application solves this by including key   distribution functionality, which means that after a Mobile Node is   authenticated the authorization phase includes the generation of   session keys and nonces.  Specifically, three session keys and two   nonces are generated:     - K1:  The MN-HA Session Key, which will be part of the MSA between            the Mobile Node and the Home Agent.  The MN-HA Session Key            is derived from a nonce generated by AAA.  The mobile node            obtains that nonce in the Registration Reply and generates            this key using the same formula that AAA uses.Calhoun, et al.

RFC 4004                      Diameter MIP                   August 2005     - K2:  The MN-FA Key, which will be part of the MSA between the            Mobile Node and the Foreign Agent.  The MN-FA Key is derived            from a nonce generated by AAA.  The mobile node obtains that            nonce in the Registration Reply and generates the MN-FA key            using the same formula that AAA uses.     - K3:  The FA-HA Key, which will be part of the MSA between the            Foreign Agent and the Home Agent.   The same session key is used in both directions between two entities;   e.g., the Mobile Node and the Foreign Agent use the same session key   for the MN-FA and the FA-MN authentication extensions.  The security   implications of this are examined insection 13.  However, the SPIs   may be different for the MN-FA and the FA-MN authentication   extensions.  The SPI for the MN-FA MSA is used on messages sent from   the MN to the FA, and the SPI for the FA-MN MSA is used on messages   sent from the FA to the MN.   All keys and nonces are generated by the AAAH, even if a Home Agent   is dynamically allocated in the foreign network.   Figure 9 depicts the MSAs used for Mobile-IPv4 message integrity   using the keys created by the DIAMETER server.            +--------+                      +--------+            |Foreign |          K3          | Home   |            |Agent   |<-------------------->| Agent  |            |        |                      |        |            +--------+                      +--------+                    ^                        ^                    | K2                  K1 |                    |       +--------+       |                    |       | Mobile |       |                    +------>| Node   |<------+                            |        |                            +--------+              Figure 9.  Mobility Security Associations after Session                            Key and Nonce Distribution   The keys destined for the foreign and home agent are propagated to   the mobility agents via the Diameter protocol.  If exposing keys to   the Diameter Agents along the way represents an unacceptable security   risk, then the keys MUST be protected either by IPSec or TLS security   associations that exist directly between the HA and AAAH or the FA   and AAAF, as explained above.Calhoun, et al.             Standards Track                    [Page 19]

RFC 4004                      Diameter MIP                   August 2005   The keys destined for the mobile node MUST also be propagated via the   Mobile IPv4 protocol and therefore MUST follow the mechanisms   described in [MIPKEYS] instead.  In [MIPKEYS], the mobile node   receives a nonce for each key it needs, and the mobile node will use   the nonce and the long-term shared secret to create the keys (seesection 8).   Once the session keys have been established and propagated, the   mobility devices can exchange registration information directly, as   defined in [MOBILEIP], without the need of the Diameter   infrastructure.  However, the session keys have a lifetime, after   which the Diameter infrastructure MUST be invoked again if new   session keys and nonces are to be acquired.4.  Diameter Protocol Considerations   This section details the relationship of the Diameter Mobile IPv4   application to the Diameter base protocol.   This document specifies Diameter Application-ID 2.  Diameter nodes   conforming to this specification MAY advertise support by including   the value of two (2) in the Auth-Application-Id or the Acct-   Application-Id AVP of the Capabilities-Exchange-Request and   Capabilities-Exchange-Answer commands [DIAMBASE].  The value of two   (2) MUST be used as the Application-Id in all AMR/AMA and HAR/HAA   commands.  The value of two (2) MUST be used as the Application-Id in   all ACR/ACA commands, as this application defines new, mandatory AVPs   for accounting.  The value of zero (0) SHOULD be used as the   Application-Id in all STR/STA and ASR/ASA commands, as these are   defined in the Diameter base protocol and no additional mandatory   AVPs for those commands are defined in this document.   Given the nature of Mobile IPv4, re-authentication can only be   initiated by a mobile node, which does not participate in the   Diameter message exchanges.  Therefore, Diameter server initiated   re-auth does not apply to this application, and RAR/RAA commands MUST   NOT be sent for Diameter Mobile IPv4 sessions.4.1.  Diameter Session Management   The AAAH and AAAF MAY maintain session-state or MAY be session-   stateless.  AAA redirect agents and AAA relay agents MUST NOT   maintain session-state.  The AAAH, AAAF, proxies and relays agents   MUST maintain transaction state.   A mobile node's session is identified via its identity in the User-   Name AVP and the MIP-Mobile-Node-Address, and the MIP-Home-Agent-   Address AVPs.  This is necessary in order to allow the session stateCalhoun, et al.             Standards Track                    [Page 20]

However, as the MN may interact   with more than one FA during the life of its session, it is important   for the Diameter Mobile IPv4 application to distinguish the two   pieces of the session (some state at the FA, some state at the HA)   and to manage them independently.  The following sub-sections give   further details.4.1.1.  Session Identifiers   During creation of the AMR, the FA will choose a session identifier.   During the creation of the HAR, the AAAH MUST use a different session   identifier than that used in the AMR/AMA.  If the AAAH is session-   stateful, it MUST send the same session identifier for all HARs   initiated on behalf of a given mobile node's session.  Otherwise, if   the AAAH is session-stateless, it will manufacture a unique session-   id for every HAR.   When the HA is first allocated, it MUST create and include an Acct-   Multi-Session-Id AVP in the HAA returned to the AAAH.  This   identifier will be kept constant for the life of the Mobile IPv4   session, as detailed in the next subsection.4.1.2.  Managing Sessions during Mobile IPv4 Handoffs   Given the nature of Mobile IPv4, a mobile node MAY receive service   from many foreign agents during a period of time.  However, the home   realm should not view these handoffs as different sessions, as this   could affect billing systems.  Furthermore, foreign agents usually do   not communicate between each other, which implies that AAA   information cannot be exchanged between these entities.   A handoff registration request from a mobile node will cause the FA   to send an AMR to its AAAF.  The AMR will include a new session   identifier and MAY be sent to a new AAAF (i.e., a AAAF different from   that used by the previous FA).  However, the AMR shall be received by   the AAAH to which the user is currently registered (possibly via the   redirect mechanism depicted in Figure 3).   As the AAAH may be session-stateless, it is necessary for the   resulting HAR received by the HA to be identified as a continuation   of an existing session.  If the HA receives an HAR for a mobile node   with a new session identifier and the HA can guarantee that this   request is to extend an existing service, then the HA MUST be able to   modify its internal session state information to reflect the new   session identifier.Calhoun, et al.             Standards Track                    [Page 21]

RFC 4004                      Diameter MIP                   August 2005   For correlation to occur, accounting records must have some   commonality across handoffs.  Therefore, the home agent MUST send the   same Acct-Multi-Session-Id AVP value in all HAAs for the mobile's   session.  That is, the HA generates a unique Acct-Multi-Session-Id   when receiving an HAR for a new session and returns this same value   in every HAA for the session.  This Acct-Multi-Session-Id AVP will be   returned to the foreign agent by the AAAH in the AMA.  Both the   foreign and home agents MUST include the Acct-Multi-Session-Id in the   accounting messages, as depicted in Figure 10.4.1.3.  Diameter Session Termination   A foreign and home agent following this specification MAY expect   their respective Diameter servers to maintain session state   information for each mobile node in their networks.  For a Diameter   Server to release any resources allocated to a specific mobile node,   that server has to receive a Session-Termination-Request (STR) from a   mobility agent.  The mobility agents MUST issue the Session-   Termination-Request (STR) if the Authorization Lifetime has expired   and no subsequent MIP registration request has been received.   The AAAH SHOULD only deallocate all resources after the STR is   received from the home agent.  This ensures that a mobile node that   moves from one foreign agent to another (for example, as a result of   a handover) does not cause the Home Diameter Server to free all   resources for the mobile node.  Therefore, an STR from a foreign   agent would free the session from the foreign agent, but not the   session state associated with the home agent (see Figure 10).

Session Termination and Session Identifiers   When deallocating all of the mobile node's resources, the home   Diameter server (and the foreign Diameter server in the case of an HA   allocated in foreign network) MUST destroy all session keys that may   still be valid.   In the event that the AAAF wishes to terminate a session, its Abort-   Session-Request (ASR) [DIAMBASE] message SHOULD be sent to the FA.   Similarly, the AAAH SHOULD send its message to the Home Agent.Calhoun, et al.             Standards Track                    [Page 22]

AA-Mobile-Node-Request   The AA-Mobile-Node-Request (AMR), indicated by the Command-Code field   set to 260 and the 'R' bit set in the Command Flags field, is sent by   an attendant (i.e., the Foreign Agent), acting as a Diameter client,   to an AAAF in order to request the authentication and authorization   of a mobile node.  The foreign agent (or home agent in the case of a   co-located Mobile Node) uses information found in the Registration   Request to construct the following AVPs, to be included as part of   the AMR:             Home Address (MIP-Mobile-Node-Address AVP)             Home Agent Address (MIP-Home-Agent-Address AVP)             Mobile Node NAI (User-Name AVP [DIAMBASE])             MN-HA Key Request (MIP-Feature-Vector AVP)             MN-FA Key Request (MIP-Feature-Vector AVP)             MN-AAA Authentication Extension (MIP-MN-AAA-Auth AVP)             Foreign Agent Challenge Extension (MIP-FA-Challenge AVP)             Home Agent NAI (MIP-Home-Agent-Host AVP)             Home AAA server NAI (Destination-Host AVP [DIAMBASE])             Home Agent to Foreign Agent SPI (MIP-HA-to-FA-SPI AVP)   If the mobile node's home address is zero, the foreign or home agent   MUST NOT include a MIP-Mobile-Node-Address AVP in the AMR.  If the   home agent address is zero or all ones, the MIP-Home-Agent-Address   AVP MUST NOT be present in the AMR.   If a home agent is used in a visited network, the AAAF MAY set the   Foreign-Home-Agent-Available flag in the MIP-Feature-Vector AVP in   the AMR message to indicate that it is willing to assign a Home Agent   in the visited realm.Calhoun, et al.

Home-Agent-MIP-Request   The AAA sends the Home-Agent-MIP-Request (HAR), indicated by the   Command-Code field set to 262 and the 'R' bit set in the Command   Flags field, to the Home Agent.  If the Home Agent is to be assigned   in a foreign network, the HAR is issued by the AAAH and forwarded by   the AAAF to the HA if no redirect servers are involved.  If any are,   the HAR is sent directly to the HA via a security association.  If   the HAR message does not include a MIP-Mobile-Node-Address AVP, the   Registration Request has 0.0.0.0 for the home address, and the HAR is   successfully processed, the Home Agent MUST allocate the mobile nodes   address.  If, on the other hand, the home agent's local AAA server   allocates the mobile node's home address, the local AAA server MUST   include the assigned address in a MIP-Mobile-Node-Address AVP.   When session keys are requested for use by the mobile node, the AAAH   MUST create them and include them in the HAR message.  When a FA-HA   session key is requested, it will be created and distributed by the   AAAH server.

MIP-Home-Agent-Address AVP   The MIP-Home-Agent-Address AVP (AVP Code 334) is of type Address and   contains the mobile node's home agent IP address.7.5.  MIP-Feature-Vector AVP   The MIP-Feature-Vector AVP (AVP Code 337) is of type Unsigned32 and   is added with flag values set by the foreign agent or by the AAAF   owned by the same administrative domain as the foreign agent.  The   foreign agent SHOULD include MIP-Feature-Vector AVP within the AMR   message it sends to the AAAF.      Flag values currently defined include the following:            1   Mobile-Node-Home-Address-Requested            2   Home-Address-Allocatable-Only-in-Home-Realm            4   Home-Agent-Requested            8   Foreign-Home-Agent-Available            16  MN-HA-Key-Request            32  MN-FA-Key-Request            64  FA-HA-Key-Request            128 Home-Agent-In-Foreign-Network            256 Co-Located-Mobile-Node   The flags are set according to the following rules.   If the mobile node includes a valid home address (i.e., one not equal   to 0.0.0.0 or 255.255.255.255) in its Registration Request, the   foreign agent sets the Mobile-Node-Home-Address-Requested flag in the   MIP-Feature-Vector AVP to zero.   If the mobile node sets the home agent field equal to 255.255.255.255   in its Registration Request, the foreign agent sets both the Home-   Agent-Requested flag and the Home-Address-Allocatable-Only-in-Home-   Realm flag to one in the MIP-Feature-Vector AVP.Calhoun, et al.

RFC 4004                      Diameter MIP                   August 2005   If the mobile node sets the home agent field equal to 0.0.0.0 in its   Registration Request, the foreign agent sets the Home-Agent-Requested   flag to one and zeroes the Home-Address-Allocatable-Only-in-Home-   Realm flag in the MIP-Feature-Vector AVP.   Whenever the foreign agent sets either the   Mobile-Node-Home-Address-Requested flag or the Home-Agent-Requested   flag to one, it MUST set the MN-HA-Key-Request flag to one.  The MN-   HA-Key-Request flag is also set to one if the mobile node includes a   "Generalized MN-HA Key Generation Nonce Request" [MIPKEYS] extension,   with the subtype set to AAA.   If the mobile node includes a "Generalized MN-FA Key Generation Nonce   Request" [MIPKEYS] extension with the AAA subtype (1) in its   Registration Request, the foreign agent sets the MN-FA-Key-Request   flag to one in the MIP-Feature-Vector AVP.   If the mobile node requests a home agent in the foreign network   either by setting the home address field to all ones, or by   specifying a home agent in the foreign network, and the AAAF   authorizes the request, the AAAF MUST set the Home-Agent-In-Foreign-   Network bit to one.   If the AAAF is willing and able to assign a home agent in the foreign   network, the AAAF sets the Foreign-Home-Agent-Available flag to one.   If the Home Agent receives a Registration Request from the mobile   node indicating that the MN is acting as a co-located mobile node,   the home agent sets the Co-Located-Mobile-Node bit to one.   If the foreign agent's local policy allows it to receive AAA session   keys and it does not have any existing FA-HA key with the home agent,   the foreign agent MAY set the FA-HA-Key-Request flag.   The foreign agent MUST NOT set the Foreign-Home-Agent-Available and   Home-Agent-In-Foreign-Network flag both to one.   When the AAAF receives the AMR message, it MUST first verify that the   sender was an authorized foreign agent.  The AAAF then takes any   actions indicated by the settings of the MIP-Feature-Vector AVP   flags.  The AAAF then MAY set additional flags.  Only the AAAF may   set the Foreign-Home-Agent-Available and Home-Agent-In-Foreign-   Network flags to one.  This is done according to local administrative   policy.  When the AAAF has finished setting additional flags   according to its local policy, then the AAAF transmits the AMR with   the possibly modified MIP-Feature-Vector AVP to the AAAH.Calhoun, et al.

RFC 4004                      Diameter MIP                   August 20058.  Key Distribution   The mobile node and mobility agents use session keys (i.e.,   the MN-FA, FA-HA, and MN-HA session keys) to compute authentication   extensions applied to MIP registration messages, as defined in   [MOBILEIP].  If session keys are requested, the AAAH MUST return the   keys and nonces after the mobile node is successfully authenticated   and authorized.   The SPI values are used as key identifiers, and each session key has   its own SPI value; nodes that share a key can have multiple different   SPIs all referring to the same key.  In all cases, the entity that   receives an authentication extension (i.e., that verifies the   authentication extension) is providing the entity that sends the   authentication extension (i.e., that computes the authentication   extension) the value of the SPI to use for that computation.  Note   that the keys in this model are symmetric in that they are used in   both directions, even though the SPIs do not have to be symmetric.   The mobile node allocates SPIs for use in the FA-MN and HA-MN   mobility security associations, via the Mobile IPv4 AAA Key Request   extensions [MIPKEYS].  The home agent allocates SPIs for the MN-HA   and FA-HA mobility security association.  The foreign agent chooses   SPIs for the MN-FA and HA-FA mobility security associations.   Once the session keys and nonces have been distributed, subsequent   Mobile IPv4 registrations need not invoke the AAA infrastructure   until the keys expire.  As mandated by Mobile IPv4, these   registrations MUST include the MN-HA authentication extension.   Likewise, subsequent registrations MUST also include MN-FA   authentication extension if the MN-FA session key was generated and   distributed by AAA.  The same hold true for subsequent use of the   FA-HA authentication extensions.8.1.  Authorization Lifetime vs. MIP Key Lifetime   The Diameter Mobile IPv4 application makes use of two timers: the   Authorization-Lifetime AVP [DIAMBASE] and the MIP-MSA-Lifetime AVP.   The Authorization-Lifetime contains the number of seconds before the   mobile node must issue a subsequent MIP registration request.  The   content of the Authorization-Lifetime AVP corresponds to the Lifetime   field in the MIP header [MOBILEIP].   The MIP-MSA-Lifetime AVP contains the number of seconds before   session keys destined for the mobility agents and the mobile node   expire.  A value of zero indicates infinity (no timeout).  If notCalhoun, et al.             Standards Track                    [Page 34]

Nonce vs. Session Key   As described insection 3.4, the AAAH generates session keys and   transmits them to the home agent and foreign agent.  The AAAH   generates nonces that correspond to the same keys and transmits them   to the mobile node.  When it is necessary to protect the session keys   and SPIs from un-trusted Diameter agents, end-to-end security   mechanisms such as TLS or IPSec are required to eliminate all   Diameter Agents between the FA or HA and the AAAH, as outlined above.   In [MIPKEYS], the mobility security associations are established via   nonces transmitted to the mobile node via Mobile IPv4.  To provide   the nonces, the AAAH must generate a random [RANDOM] value of at   least 128 bits [MIPKEYS].  The mobile node then uses the nonce to   derive the MN-HA and MN-FA session keys.   More details of the MN-HA and the MN-FA session key creation   procedures are found in [MIPKEYS].   The hashing algorithm used by the mobile node to construct the   session key has to be the same as that used by the AAAH in the   session key generation procedure.  The AAAH therefore indicates the   algorithm used along with the nonce.   The FA-HA and HA-FA session key is shared between the FA and HA.  The   AAAH generates a random [RANDOM] value of at least 128 bits for use   as this session key.   See sections9 for details about the format of the AVPs used to   transport the session keys.8.3.  Distributing the Mobile-Home Session Key   If the mobile node does not have an MN-HA session key, then the AAAH   is likely to be the only trusted entity that is available to the   mobile node.  Thus, the AAAH has to generate the MN-HA session key.   The distribution of the HA-MN (session) key to the HA is specified in   sections1.2 and3.4.  The HA and AAAH establish a security   association (IPSec or TLS) and transport the key over it.  If no   security association exists between the AAAH and the home agent and a   security association cannot be established, the AAAH MUST return a   Result-Code AVP with DIAMETER_ERROR_END_TO_END_MIP_KEY_ENCRYPTION.Calhoun, et al.             Standards Track                    [Page 35]

RFC 4004                      Diameter MIP                   August 2005   The AAAH also has to arrange for the key to be delivered to the   mobile node.  Unfortunately, the AAAH only knows about Diameter   messages and AVPs, and the mobile node only knows about Mobile IPv4   messages and extensions [MOBILEIP].  For this purpose, AAAH includes   the MN-HA MIP-nonce AVP into a MIP-MN-to-HA-MSA AVP, which is added   to the HAR (for FA COA style Mobile IPv4) or to the AMA (for   collocated COA-style Mobile IPv4 messages) and delivered either to a   local home agent or a home agent in the visited network.  Note that   the mobile node will use the nonce to create the MN-HA session key by   using the MN-AAA key it shares with the AAAH [MIPKEYS].  The AAAH has   to rely on the home agent (which also understands Diameter) to   transfer the nonce into a Mobile IPv4 "Generalized MN-HA Key   Generation Nonce Reply" extension [MIPKEYS] in the Registration Reply   message.  The HA includes the SPIs proposed by the mobile node and   the home agent in the "Generalized MN-HA Key Generation Nonce   Request" extension.  The home agent can format the Reply message and   extensions correctly for eventual delivery to the mobile node.  The   resulting Registration Reply is added to the HAA's MIP-Reg-Reply AVP.   The AAAH parses the HAA message, transforms it into an AMA message   containing an MIP-Reg-Reply AVP, and sends the AMA message to the   foreign agent.  The foreign agent then uses that AVP to recreate a   Registration Reply message containing the "Generalized MN-HA Key   Generation Nonce Reply" extension for delivery to the mobile node.   In summary, the AAAH generates the MN-HA nonce, which is added to the   MIP-MN-to-HA-MSA AVP, and a session key, which is added to the   MIP-HA-to-MN-MSA AVP.  These AVPs are delivered to the home agent in   HAR or AMA messages.  The home agent retains the session key for its   own use and copies the nonce from the MIP-MN-to-HA-MSA AVP into a   "Generalized MN-HA Key Generation Nonce Reply" extension, which is   appended to the Mobile IPv4 Registration Reply message.  This   Registration Reply message MUST also include the HA-MN authentication   extension, which is created by using the newly allocated HA-MN   session key.  The home agent then includes the Registration Reply   message and extensions into a MIP-Reg-Reply AVP as part of the HAA   message to be sent back to the AAA server.   The key derived by the MN from the MN-HA session nonce is identical   to the HA-MN session key provided to the HA.8.4.  Distributing the Mobile-Foreign Session Key   The MN-FA session nonce is also generated by AAAH (upon request) and   added to the MIP-MN-to-FA-MSA AVP, which is added to the HAR and   copied by the home agent into a "Generalized MN-FA Key Generation   Nonce Reply" extension [MIPKEYS] of the Mobile IPv4 Registration   Reply message.  The HA also includes the SPIs proposed by the mobileCalhoun, et al.             Standards Track                    [Page 36]

The AAAH includes the FA-MN session key in the   MIP-FA-to-MN-MSA AVP in the AMA, to be used by the foreign agent in   the computation of the FA-MN authentication extension.   The key derived by the MN from the MN-FA session nonce is identical   to the FA-MN session key provided to the FA.8.5.  Distributing the Foreign-Home Session Key   If the foreign agent requests an FA-HA session key, it also includes   a MIP-HA-to-FA-SPI AVP in the AMR to convey the SPI to be used by the   home agent for this purpose.  The AAAH generates the FA-HA session   key, which is identical to the HA-FA session key, and distributes   that to both the HA and the FA over respective security associations   by using the MIP-HA-to-FA-MSA and MIP-FA-to-HA-MSA AVPs.  The HA   conveys the SPI that the FA MUST use in the HAA; this is similar to   the way in which the FA conveys that the SPI that the HA MUST use in   the AMR.  The AAAH later includes these SPIs in the MIP-FA-HA-MSA and   MIP-HA-FA-MSA AVPs, respectively, along with the session key.   Refer to Figures 2, 3, 4, and 6 for the messages involved.   Note that if multiple MNs are registered on the same FA and HA pair,   then multiple mobility security associations would be distributed.   However, only one is required to protect the Mobile IP control   traffic between FA and HA.  This creates an unacceptable level of   state (i.e., to store the two SPIs and shared key for each FA-HA   mobility security association).  To improve scalability, the FA and   HA may discard FA-HA mobility security associations prior to the time   when they actually expire.  However, if a proper discard policy is   not chosen, this could cause Mobile IP messages in transit or waiting   in queues for transmission to fail authentication.   The FA MUST always use the FA-HA security association with the latest   expiry time when computing authentication extensions on outgoing   messages.  The FA MAY discard HA-FA mobility security associations 10   seconds after a new HA-FA mobility security association arrives with   a later expiry time.   The HA SHOULD use the HA-FA mobility security association that has   the latest expiry time when computing authentication extensions in   outgoing messages.  However, when the HA receives a new HA-FA   mobility security association with a later expiry time, the HA SHOULD   wait 4 seconds for the AMA to propagate to the FA before using the   new association.  Note that the HA always uses the mobility security   association from the HAR when constructing the Mobile IP Registration   Reply in the corresponding HAA.  The HA MAY discard an FA-HA mobilityCalhoun, et al.             Standards Track                    [Page 37]

Key Distribution AVPs   The Mobile-IP protocol defines a set of mobility security   associations shared between the mobile node, foreign agent, and home   agent.  These three mobility security associations (MN-HA, MN-FA, and   FA-HA) are dynamically created by the AAAH and have previously been   described in sections3.4 and8.  AAA servers supporting the Diameter   Mobile IP Application MUST implement the key distribution AVPs   defined in this document.   The names of the key distribution AVPs indicate the two entities   sharing the mobility security association.  The first named entity in   the AVP name will use the mobility security association to create   authentication extensions using the given SPI and key.  The second   named entity in the AVP name will use the mobility security   association to verify the authentication extensions of received   Mobile IP messages.   For instance, the MIP-MN-to-HA-MSA AVP contains the MN-HA nonce,   which the mobile node will use to derive the MN-HA Key, and the   MIP-HA-to-MN-MSA AVP contains the MN-HA key for the home agent.  Note   that mobility security associations are unidirectional; however, this   application delivers only one key that is shared between both   unidirectional security associations that exist between two peers.   The security considerations of using the same key in each direction   are given insection 13.  The SPIs are, however, unique to each   unidirectional security association and are chosen by the peer that   will receive the Mobile IP messages authenticated with that security   association.   The following table describes the Diameter AVPs defined in the Mobile   IP application and their AVP Code values, types, and possible flag   values.Calhoun, et al.

Application Identifier   This specification uses the value two (2) to the Application   Identifier namespace defined in [DIAMBASE].  Seesection 4 for more   information.13.  Security Considerations   This specification describes a Mobile IPv4 Diameter Application for   authenticating and authorizing a Mobile IPv4 mobile node.  The   authentication algorithm used is dependent on the transforms used   within the Mobile IPv4 protocol, and [MIPCHAL].  This specification,   in conjunction with [MIPKEYS], 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 IPv4   registration messages [MOBILEIP].  The key distribution is   asymmetric, as communication with the mobile node occurs via the   Mobile IPv4 protocol [MIPKEYS,MOBILEIP], where as communication to   the Home Agent and Foreign Agent occurs via the Diameter protocol.   Where untrusted Diameter agents are present, end-to-end security MUST   be used.  The end-to-end security takes the form of TLS or IPSec   security associations between the AAAH and the FA and between the   AAAH and the HA.  These connections will be authenticated with the   use of public keys and certificates; however, the identities that   appear in the certificates must be authorized and bound to a   particular Mobile IPv4 Diameter session before the AAAH can safely   begin distribution of keys.Calhoun, et al.             Standards Track                    [Page 47]

RFC 4004                      Diameter MIP                   August 2005   Note that the direct connections are established as a result of   Diameter redirect messages.  For example, in Figure 3, the FA gets a   redirect response containing the Redirect-Host AVP of the AAAH.  This   is the identity that should be matched against the certificate   presented by the AAAH when the secure connection is established.  In   this case, the network of Diameter proxies and redirect agents is   trusted with the task of returning the correct AAAH identity to the   FA.   The AAAH must also make an authorization decision when the FA   establishes the connection.  If the AAAH and the redirect server are   one and the same, then the AAAH may have observed and noted the   original AMR message that contained the identity of the FA and so may   authorize the establishment of a TLS or IPSec connection from the   same entity.  Otherwise, the AAAH would need to maintain a list of   all authorized visited domains (roaming partners) and authorize TLS   or IPSec connections based on this list.  Note that establishment of   the connection is only the first step, and the AAAH has another   opportunity to deny service upon receipt of the AMR message itself.   At this step, the AAAH can check the internal AVPs of the AMR to   ensure that the FA is valid; for example, it can check that the   Mobile IP COA is equal to the IP address used as the endpoint of the   TLS or IPSec connection.  However, such a policy would prevent the FA   from using different interfaces for AAA and Mobile IP tunnel packets   and may not be desirable in every deployment situation.   A similar set of considerations applies to the connection between   AAAH and HA when those entities are in different administrative   domains.  However, here the roles are reversed because it is the AAAH   that contacts the HA via the HAR.  The identity of the candidate HA   is given to the AAAH in the AMR, and the AAAH should expect to   receive the same identity in the public key certificates during TLS   or IPSec negotiation.  The HA may authorize individual connections by   acting as its own redirect server, or it may maintain a list of   trusted roaming partners.   This application creates and distributes a single session key for   each pair of MSAs between two entities; e.g., the same session key is   used for the MN-HA MSA and the HA-MN MSA.  This is safe to do from a   security perspective, as the session keys are only used with keyed   hash functions to generate authenticator values that protect the   integrity of each Mobile IP control message.  Mobile IP messages have   built-in replay protection with the use of timestamps or nonces   [MOBILEIP], and, due to the nature of the protocol, requests are   always different bitwise from responses, at least in the message type   code.  This avoids problems that might arise in other situationsCalhoun, et al.             Standards Track                    [Page 48]

RFC 4004                      Diameter MIP                   August 2005   where an attacker could mount a replay or reflection attack if the   same key were used (for example) to encrypt otherwise unprotected   traffic on more than one connection leg in the network.   Nonces are sent to the mobile node, which are used to generate the   session keys via the HMAC-SHA-1 one-way function.  Because the nonces   and authentication extensions may be observed by anyone with access   to a clear-text copy of the Registration Reply, the pre-shared key   between the mobile node and the home Diameter server would be   vulnerable to an offline dictionary attack if it did not contain   enough entropy.  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.   Because 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 is strongly recommended to be a random [RANDOM] value   of at least 128 bits.  The long-term secret between the MN and AAAH   MUST be refreshed periodically, to guard against recovery of the   long-term secret due to nonce reuse or other factors.  This is   accomplished by using out-of-band mechanisms, which are not specified   in this document.   Note that it is not recommended to set the MIP-MSA-Lifetime AVP value   to zero, as keeping session keys for a long time (no refresh)   increases the level of vulnerability.14.  References14.1.
