Technical Summary
This document defines new attributes to facilitate Proxy Mobile IPv6
operations using the RADIUS infrastructure. The protocol specified
here uses RADIUS based interfaces of the mobile access
gateway and the local mobility anchor with the AAA server for
authentication, authorization and policy functions. The RADIUS
interactions between the mobile access gateway and the RADIUS-based
AAA server take place when the Mobile Node attaches to the network,
authenticates and authorizes within a Proxy Mobile IPv6 domain.
Furthermore, this document defines the RADIUS-based interface
between the local mobility anchor and the AAA RADIUS server for
authorizing received Proxy Binding Update messages for the mobile
node's mobility session.
Additionally, this document specifies the baseline for the mobile
access gateway and the local mobility anchor generated accounting.
