RFC 6572                      RADIUS PMIPv6                    June 2012

   Before the MAG can initiate Proxy Mobile IPv6 signaling, it must be
   aware of the LMA's IP address.

   When the LMA is assigned to the MN from the home network, this
   attribute MAY be sent by the HAAA to the MAG in the RADIUS Access-
   Accept message.

4.5.  PMIP6-Visited-LMA-IPv6-Address

   The PMIP6-Visited-LMA-IPv6-Address attribute (Type value 148) is of
   type IPv6 address and is used to propose a particular LMA in the
   visited network and to authorize the use of the LMA in the visited/
   local network.

   PMIP6-Visited-LMA-IPv6-Address attribute MAY be included by the MAG
   in the RADIUS Access-Request message.  The LMA in the visited/local
   network may be assigned by the [VL]AAA as the result of retrieved
   policy profile.  If included by the [VL]AAA in the RADIUS Access-
   Accept sent to the MAG, the use of the LMA in the visited/local
   network is authorized and the attribute SHALL carry the IPv6 address
   of the LMA assigned for the particular MN.  See Section 4.2.5 of
   [RFC5447] how the MIP6-Feature-Vector attribute and
   LOCAL_HOME_AGENT_ASSIGNMENT capability flag is used with the LMA
   (Home Agent) assignment.

   Home LMA IPv4 address:
      32-bit IPv4 address of the assigned LMA.

4.7.  PMIP6-Visited-LMA-IPv4-Address

   The PMIP6-Visited-LMA-IPv4-Address attribute (Type value 150) is of
   type IPv4 address and is used to propose a particular LMA in the
   visited network and to authorize the use of the LMA in the visited
   network.

   PMIP6-Visited-LMA-IPv4-Address attribute MAY be included by the MAG
   in the RADIUS Access-Request message.  The LMA in the visited/local

      32-bit IPv4 address of the assigned LMA.

4.8.  PMIP6-Home-HN-Prefix

   The PMIP6-Home-HN-Prefix attribute (Type value 151) is of type IPv6
   prefix.  It contains the Mobile Node - Home Network Prefix (MN-HNP),
   which is the IPv6 prefix assigned to the link between the MN and the
   MAG.  The MN configures its IP interface from its home network
   prefix(es).  When the LMA is located in the home network, the PMIP6-
   Home-HN-Prefix attribute is used to deliver the MN-HNP from the HAAA
   to the MAG.

RFC 6572                      RADIUS PMIPv6                    June 2012

   The PMIP6-Home-HN-Prefix attribute is also used on the LMA-to-HAAA
   interface containing the prefix assigned to the MN.  If the LMA
   delegates the MN-HNP assignment to the HAAA, the attribute MUST
   contain all zeroes in the address of (i.e., '::') the Access-Request
   message.  The attribute MUST be present in the RADIUS Access-Accept
   message if the prior request already included one and SHOULD carry
   the MN-HNP the HAAA assigned to the MN.

   Length:
      = at least 4 and no larger than 20.

   Reserved:
      Reserved for future use.  The bits MUST be set to zero by the
      sender and MUST be ignored by the receiver.

   Prefix-Length:
      The 8-bit unsigned integer indicating the prefix length of
      the home network prefix (at least 0 and no larger than 128).
      If the home network prefix contains an address of all zeroes
      (i.e., '::'), then the Prefix-Length MUST be set to 128.

   Home Network Prefix:
      The home network prefix for the MN's IPv6 address configuration.
      The Prefix field is up to 16 octets in length.  Bits outside of
      the Prefix-Length, if included, must be zero.

4.9.  PMIP6-Visited-HN-Prefix

   The PMIP6-Visited-HN-Prefix attribute (Type value 152) is of type
   IPv6 prefix.  It contains the Mobile Node - Home Network Prefix (MN-
   HNP), which is the IPv6 prefix assigned to the link between the MN

Xia, et al.                  Standards Track                   [Page 16]
RFC 6572                      RADIUS PMIPv6                    June 2012

   and the MAG.  The MN configures its IP interface from its home
   network prefix(es).  When the LMA is located in the visited network,
   the PMIP6-Visited-HN-Prefix attribute is used to deliver the MN-HNP
   from the VAAA to the MAG.

   The PMIP6-Visited-HN-Prefix attribute is also used on the LMA-to-VAAA
   interface containing the IPv6 prefix assigned to the MN.  If the LMA
   delegates the assignment of the MN-HNP to the VAAA, the attribute
   MUST contain an address of all zeroes (i.e., '::') in the RADIUS
   Access-Request message.  The attribute MUST be present in Access-
   Accept message if the prior request already included one and SHOULD
   carry the MN-HNP the VAAA assigned to the MN.

   The attribute SHOULD NOT be included if the use of LMA in the home
   network is authorized (the PMIP6-Home-HN-Prefix and/or PMIP6-Home-
   LMA-IPv6-Address attributes are already present).  However, if the
   VAAA local policy allows both home and visited LMA addresses to be
   delivered to the MAG, then this attribute MAY also be included.

4.10.  PMIP6-Home-Interface-ID

   The PMIP6-Home-Interface-ID attribute (Type value 153) is of type
   String and contains the MN's interface identifier.  The selection of
   the interface identifier SHOULD NOT allow the tracking of individual
   MNs or users between PMIPv6 mobility sessions for privacy reasons.
   This attribute is applicable in network systems and link
   technologies, where the network explicitly delivers an interface
   identifier to the MN during the link setup.  Third Generation
   Partnership Project (3GPP) and PPP link technologies are examples of
   such.

   This attribute MAY be sent by the LMA or the MAG to the HAAA in the
   RADIUS Access-Request packet as a proposal.  This attribute MAY be
   sent by the HAAA to the LMA or to the MAG in an Access-Accept packet;
   however, it MUST be present if the prior request already included
   one.

4.12.  PMIP6-Home-IPv4-HoA

   [RFC5844] specifies extensions to Proxy Mobile IPv6 protocol that
   enable IPv4 home address mobility support to the MN.  The PMIP6-Home-
   IPv4-HoA attribute (Type value 155) is of type Address and contains
   the IPv4 Home Address of the MN.  The primary use of this attribute
   is to deliver the assigned IPv4-HoA from HAAA to the MAG.

   The PMIP6-Home-IPv4-HoA is also used on the LMA-to-HAAA interface.
   If the LMA in the home network delegates the assignment of the
   IPv4-HoA to the HAAA, the attribute MUST contain an address of all
   zeroes (i.e., 0.0.0.0) in the Access-Request message.  The attribute
   MUST be included in by HAAA in the Access-Accept message if the
   previous request included it, and it contains the IPv4-HoA assigned
   to the MN.

   Reserved
      The 10-bit field reserved for future use.  The value MUST be
      initialized to zero by sender and MUST be ignored by the
      receiver.

   Prefix-Len
      The 6-bit unsigned integer indicating the prefix length of the
      IPv4 HoA.  If the Home IPv4 HoA contains an address of all zeroes
      (i.e., '0.0.0.0'), then the Prefix-Len MUST be set to 32.

   Home IPv4 HoA:
      This field is of type Address and contains the IPv4 home
      address of the MN in the home network.

4.13.  PMIP6-Visited-IPv4-HoA

   When both the MAG and the LMA are in the visited network, the PMIP6-
   Visited-IPv4-HoA attribute (Type value 156) is of type Address and is
   used to exchange information between the VAAA and the MAG on the
   assignment of the IPv4 Home Address to the MN being present in the
   visited network.

   The PMIP6-Visited-IPv4-HoA is also used on the LMA-to-VAAA interface.
   If the LMA delegates the assignment of the IPv4-HoA to the VAAA, the
   attribute MUST contain an address of all zeroes (i.e., 0.0.0.0) in
   the RADIUS Access-Request message.  The Access-Accept message MUST
   have the attribute present if the prior request to the VAAA already
   included one.

   The attribute SHOULD NOT be included if the use of the LMA in the
   home network is authorized (the PMIP6-Home-IPv4-HoA and/or PMIP6-
   Home-LMA-IPv4-Address attributes are already present).  However, if
   the VAAA local policy allows both home and visited LMA addresses to
   be delivered to the MAG, then this attribute MAY also be included.

5.  MAG to RADIUS AAA Interface

5.1.  Interface Operations

   The MAG to the AAA RADIUS server interface is used for retrieval of
   the policy profile when an MN tries to attach, authenticate, and
   authorize to a PMIPv6 domain.  Depending on the policies and network
   capabilities, the MAG may retrieve different sets of PMIPv6-session-
   related parameters:

   o  Configuration attributes for home or visited network access
      scenario, depending on the location and attachment point of the
      MN,

   o  The IPv6 or IPv4 address of the designated LMA, depending on the
      access network's actual IP topology,

   o  The IPv6 or IPv4 configuration parameters for the MN, depending on
      the utilized IP configuration method and individual MN's service
      Policy,

   o  The DHCP Relay support attributes (IPv4 or IPv6) in case such
      functionality is supported in the network.

   In addition to PMIPv6-specific attributes, other RADIUS attributes
   are to be used on the MAG-to-AAA interface.

Xia, et al.                  Standards Track                   [Page 26]
RFC 6572                      RADIUS PMIPv6                    June 2012

   The User-Name attribute MUST be present in the Access-Request.  It
   MUST carry a correctly formed identifier that SHOULD correspond to an
   MN identity unless the identity is being suppressed for policy
   reasons, for example, when identity hiding is in effect.  The MN
   identity, if available, MUST be in Network Access Identifier (NAI)
   [RFC4282] format.  At minimum, the home realm of the MN MUST be
   available at the MAG when the network access authentication takes
   place.  Otherwise, the MAG is not able to route RADIUS request
   messages towards the correct HAAA.  The MN identity used on the MAG-
   to-HAAA interface and in the User-Name attribute MAY entirely be
   related to the network access authentication and, therefore, not be
   suitable to be used as the MN-Identifier mobility option value in the
   subsequent PBU/PBA messages.  In this case, the HAAA MUST provide the
   MN-Identifier for PBU/PBA messages using the Mobile-Node-Identifier
   attribute (see Section 4.2).

   At least one of the NAS-IP-Address, NAS-IPv6-Address, or
   NAS-Identifier attributes MUST be present in the Access-Request.  The
   Service-Type attribute SHOULD be set to value 1 (Login) and the NAS-
   Port-Type attribute SHOULD be present in the Access-Request.

5.2.  Table of Attributes

   The following table provides a guide to attributes that may be found
   in authentication and authorization RADIUS messages between the MAG
   and the AAA server.

6.  LMA to RADIUS AAA Interface

6.1.  Interface Operations

   The LMA-to-HAAA interface may be used for multiple purposes.  These
   include the authorization of the incoming PBU, updating the LMA
   address to the HAAA, delegating the assignment of the MN-HNP or the
   IPv4-HoA to the HAAA, and accounting and PMIPv6 session management.
   The primary purpose of this interface is to update the HAAA with the

Xia, et al.                  Standards Track                   [Page 28]
RFC 6572                      RADIUS PMIPv6                    June 2012

   LMA address information in case of dynamically assigned LMA and to
   exchange the MN address assignment information between the LMA and
   the HAAA.

   Whenever the LMA sends an Access-Request message to the HAAA, the
   User-Name attribute SHOULD contain the MN's identity.  The LMA-
   provided identity in the User-Name attribute is strongly RECOMMENDED
   to be the same as the MN's identity information in the PBU MN-
   Identifier mobility option.  The identity SHOULD also be the same as
   used on the MAG-to-HAAA interface; however, in case those identities
   differ, the HAAA MUST have a mechanism of mapping the MN identity
   used on the MAG-to-HAAA interface to the identity used on the LMA-to-
   HAAA interface.

   If the PBU contains the MN Link-Layer Identifier option, the Calling-
   Station-Id attribute SHOULD be included in the request message
   containing the received MN Link-Layer Identifier option.
   Furthermore, if the PBU contains the Service Selection mobility
   option [RFC5149], the Service-Selection attribute SHOULD be included
   in the request message containing the received service identifier.
   Both the MN Link-Layer Identifier option and the service selection
   can be used to provide more information for the PBU authorization
   step in the HAAA.

   The Service-Type attribute MUST be set to the value 17 (Authorize
   Only).  If the HAAA is not able to authorize the subscriber's
   mobility service session, then the Access-Reject message to the LMA
   MAY contain the Reply-Message attribute describing the reason for
   rejecting the authorization.  A failed authorization obviously
   results in a rejection of the PBU, and a PBA with an appropriate
   error Status Value MUST be sent back to the MAG.

   The authorization step MUST be performed at least for the initial PBU
   session up to a mobility session, when the LMA-to-HAAA interface is
   deployed.  For the subsequent re-registration and handover of PBUs,
   the authorization step MAY be repeated (in this case, the LMA-to-HAAA
   interface should also maintain an authorization session state).

   In case of a dynamic LMA discovery and assignment [RFC6097], the HAAA
   and the remote policy store may need to be updated with the selected
   LMA address information.  The update can be done during the PBU
   authorization step using the LMA-to-HAAA interface.  This
   specification uses the PMIP6-*-LMA-*-Address attribute for carrying
   the LMA's address information from the LMA to the HAAA.  The LMA
   address information in the request message MUST contain the IP
   address of the LMA, the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) uniquely

   identifying the LMA, or both.  The LMA address information refers to
   the PMIPv6 part of the LMA, not necessarily the LMA part interfacing
   with the AAA infrastructure.

   The LMA and the HAAA use the PMIP6-Home-HN-Prefix/
   PMIP6-Visited-HN-Prefix attributes to exchange the MN-HNP when
   appropriate.  Similarly, the LMA and the HAAA use the PMIP6-Home-
   IPv4-HoA/PMIP6-Visited-IPv4-HoA attributes to exchange the IPv4-MN-
   HoA when appropriate.  The MN address information exchange is again
   done during the PBU authorization step.  The HAAA MAY also use the
   LMA-provided MN address information as a part of the information used
   to authorize the PBU.

   Which entity is actually responsible for the address management is
   deployment specific within the PMIPv6 Domain and MUST be pre-agreed
   on per deployment basis.  When the LMA is responsible for the address
   management, the PMIP6-*-HN-Prefix/PMIP6-*-IPv4-HoA attributes are
   used to inform the HAAA and the remote policy store of the MN-HNP/
   IPv4-MN-HoA assigned to the MN.  It is also possible that the LMA
   delegates the address management to the HAAA.  In this case, the
   MN-HNP/IPv4-MN-HoA are set to undefined addresses in the Access-
   Request message sent from the LMA to the HAAA.  The LMA expects to
   receive the HAAA assigned HNP/IPv4-MN-HoA in the corresponding
   Access-Accept message.

6.2.  Table of Attributes

   The following table provides a guide to which attributes may be found
   in authorization process between LMA and the AAA.

7.  Accounting

   Radius-based interfaces at the MAG and LMA with the AAA server
   enables the metering of traffic associated with the MN, commonly
   called "accounting".  If accounting is turned on in the mobile node's
   policy profile, the local routing SHOULD NOT be enabled [RFC5213].

7.1.  Accounting at LMA

   The accounting at the LMA to AAA server interface is based on
   [RFC2865] and [RFC2866].  This interface MUST support the transfer of
   accounting records needed for service control and charging.  These
   records should include (but may not be limited to) the following:
   time of binding cache entry creation and deletion, number of the
   octets sent and received by the MN over the bi-directional tunnel,
   etc.

Xia, et al.                  Standards Track                   [Page 31]
RFC 6572                      RADIUS PMIPv6                    June 2012

7.2.  Accounting at MAG

   The accounting at the MAG to AAA server interface is based on
   [RFC2865] and [RFC2866].  The interface MUST also support the
   transfer of accounting records that should include the following:
   time of binding cache entry creation and deletion, number of the
   octets sent and received by the MN over the bi-directional tunnel,
   etc.

   If there is data traffic between a visiting MN and a correspondent
   node that is locally attached to an access link connected to the same
   MAG, the mobile access gateway MAY optimize on the delivery efforts
   by locally routing the packets instead of using reverse tunneling to
   the mobile node's LMA.  In this case, the local data traffic too MUST
   be reported to AAA Accounting servers by means of RADIUS protocol.

7.3.  Table of Attributes

   The following table provides a list of attributes that may be
   included in the RADIUS Accounting messages.  These attributes are to
   complement the set of accounting attributes already required by
   [RFC2866] and [RFC2869].

   Accounting

   0-1          80  Message-Authenticator
   0-1          89  Chargeable-User-Identity
   0-1         124  MIP6-Feature-Vector

8.  Security Considerations

   The RADIUS messages may be transported between the MAG and/or the LMA
   to the RADIUS server via one or more AAA brokers or RADIUS proxies.
   In this case, the communication between the LMA and the RADIUS AAA
   server relies on the security properties of the intermediate AAA
   brokers and RADIUS proxies.

Xia, et al.                  Standards Track                   [Page 32]
RFC 6572                      RADIUS PMIPv6                    June 2012

   Regarding the privacy threats associated with sending MN-specific
   information between the MAG and AAA server and between the LMA and
   AAA server, considerations of the RADIUS Base protocol [RFC2865],
   RADIUS Accounting [RFC2866], and the RADIUS EAP application [RFC3579]
   are applicable to this document.  The MAG, LMA, and AAA server SHOULD
   avoid including attributes containing personally identifying
   information such as a MN's Interface ID, link-layer address, or NAI,
   except as needed and SHOULD pay special attention if identity hiding
   is desired.

9.  IANA Consideration
