Transmission of IPv6 Packets over Near Field Communication
draft-ietf-6lo-nfc-16
Abstract
Near Field Communication (NFC) is a set of standards for smartphones
and portable devices to establish radio communication with each other
by touching them together or bringing them into proximity, usually no
more than 10 cm apart. NFC standards cover communications protocols
and data exchange formats, and are based on existing radio-frequency
identification (RFID) standards including ISO/IEC 14443 and FeliCa.
The standards include ISO/IEC 18092 and those defined by the NFC
Forum. The NFC technology has been widely implemented and available
in mobile phones, laptop computers, and many other devices. This
document describes how IPv6 is transmitted over NFC using 6LoWPAN
techniques.

1. Introduction
NFC is a set of short-range wireless technologies, typically
requiring a distance between sender and receiver of 10 cm or less.
NFC operates at 13.56 MHz, and at rates ranging from 106 kbit/s to
424 kbit/s, as per the ISO/IEC 18000-3 air interface [ECMA-340]. NFC
Choi, et al. Expires January 10, 2021 [Page 2]
Internet-Draft IPv6 over NFC July 2020
builds upon RFID systems by allowing two-way communication between
endpoints. NFC always involves an initiator and a target; the
initiator actively generates an RF field that can power a passive
target. This enables NFC targets to take very simple form factors,
such as tags, stickers, key fobs, or cards, while avoiding the need
for batteries. NFC peer-to-peer communication is possible, provided
that both devices are powered. As of the writing, NFC is supported
by the main smartphone operating systems.
NFC is often regarded as a secure communications technology, due to
its very short transmission range.
In order to benefit from Internet connectivity, it is desirable for
NFC-enabled devices to support IPv6, considering its large address
space, along with tools for unattended operation, among other
advantages. This document specifies how IPv6 is supported over NFC
by using IPv6 over Low-power Wireless Personal Area Network (6LoWPAN)
techniques [RFC4944], [RFC6282], [RFC6775]. 6LoWPAN is suitable,
considering that it was designed to support IPv6 over IEEE 802.15.4
networks, and some of the characteristics of the latter are similar
to those of NFC.
2. Conventions and Terminology
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
"OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP
14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
capitals, as shown here.
3. Overview of Near Field Communication Technology
This section presents an overview of NFC, focusing on the
characteristics of NFC that are most relevant for supporting IPv6.
NFC enables simple, two-way, interaction between two devices,
allowing users to perform contactless transactions, access digital
content, and connect electronic devices with a single touch. NFC
utilizes key elements in existing standards for contactless card
Technology, such as ISO/IEC 14443 A&B and JIS-X 6319-4. NFC allows
devices to share information at a distance up to 10 cm with a maximum
physical layer bit rate of 424 kbps.
3.1. Peer-to-peer Mode of NFC
NFC defines three modes of operation: card emulation, peer-to-peer,
and reader/writer. Only the peer-to-peer mode enables two NFC-
enabled devices to communicate with each other to exchange
Choi, et al. Expires January 10, 2021 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft IPv6 over NFC July 2020
information and share files, so that users of NFC-enabled devices can
quickly share contact information and other files with a touch. The
other two modes does not support two-way communications between two
devices. Therefore, the peer mode is used for ipv6-over-nfc.
3.2. Protocol Stacks of NFC
NFC defines a protocol stack for the peer-to-peer mode (Figure 1).
The peer-to-peer mode is made in Activities Digital Protocol in NFC
Physical Lay. The NFC Logical Link consists of Binding for IPv6-LLCP
and Logical Link Control Protocol Layer (LLCP). IPv6 and its
underlying adaptation Layer (i.e., IPv6-over-NFC adaptation layer)
are placed directly on the top of the IPv6-LLCP Binding. An IPv6
datagram is transmitted by the Logical Link Control Protocol (LLCP)
with reliable, two-way transmission of information between the peer
devices.

+----------------------------------------+ ------------------
Figure 1: Protocol Stack of NFC
The LLCP consists of Logical Link Control (LLC) and MAC Mapping. The
MAC Mapping integrates an existing RF protocol into the LLCP
architecture. The LLC contains three components, such as Link
Management, Connection-oriented Transmission, and Connection-less
Transmission. The Link Management component is responsible for
serializing all connection-oriented and connection-less LLC PDU
(Protocol Data Unit) exchanges and for aggregation and disaggregation
of small PDUs. The Connection-oriented Transmission component is
responsible for maintaining all connection-oriented data exchanges
including connection set-up and termination. The Connectionless
Choi, et al. Expires January 10, 2021 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft IPv6 over NFC July 2020
Transmission component is responsible for handling unacknowledged
data exchanges.
In order to send an IPv6 packet over NFC, the packet MUST be passed
down to the LLCP layer of NFC and carried by an Information (I) or an
Unnumbered Information (UI) Field in an LLCP Protocol Data Unit
(PDU). LLCP does not support fragmentation and reassembly. For IPv6
addressing or address configuration, LLCP MUST provide related
information, such as link layer addresses, to its upper layer. The
LLCP to IPv6 protocol binding MUST transfer the SSAP and DSAP value
to the IPv6 over NFC protocol. SSAP stands for Source Service Access
Point, which is a 6-bit value meaning a kind of Logical Link Control
(LLC) address, while DSAP means an LLC address of the destination
NFC-enabled device. Thus, SSAP is a source address, and DSAP is a
destination address.
3.3. NFC-enabled Device Addressing
According to NFC Logical Link Control Protocol v1.3 [LLCP-1.3], NFC-
enabled devices have two types of 6-bit addresses (i.e., SSAP and
DSAP) to identify service access points. Several service access
points can be installed on a NFC device. However, the SSAP and DSAP
can be used as identifiers for NFC link connections with the IPv6
over NFC adaptation layer. Therefore, the SSAP can be used to
generate an IPv6 interface identifier. Address values between 00h
and 0Fh of SSAP and DSAP are reserved for identifying the well-known
service access points, which are defined in the NFC Forum Assigned
Numbers Register. Address values between 10h and 1Fh are assigned by
the local LLC to services registered by local service environment.
In addition, address values between 20h and 3Fh are assigned by the
local LLC as a result of an upper layer service request. Therefore,
the address values between 20h and 3Fh can be used for generating
IPv6 interface identifiers.
3.4. MTU of NFC Link Layer
As mentioned in Section 3.2, when an IPv6 packet is transmitted, the
packet MUST be passed down to LLCP of NFC and transported to an
Unnumbered Information Protocol Data Unit (UI PDU) and an Information
Field in Protocol Data Unit (I PDU) of LLCP of the NFC-enabled peer
device.
The information field of an I PDU contains a single service data
unit. The maximum number of octets in the information field is
determined by the Maximum Information Unit (MIU) for the data link
connection. The default value of the MIU for I PDUs is 128 octets.
The local and remote LLCs each establish and maintain distinct MIU
values for each data link connection endpoint. Also, an LLC may
Choi, et al. Expires January 10, 2021 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft IPv6 over NFC July 2020
announce a larger MIU for a data link connection by transmitting an
optional Maximum Information Unit Extension (MIUX) parameter within
the information field. If no MIUX parameter is transmitted, the MIU
value is 128 bytes. Otherwise, the MTU size in NFC LLCP MUST be
calculated from the MIU value as follows:
MTU = MIU = 128 + MIUX.
According to [LLCP-1.3], Figure 2 shows an example of the MIUX
parameter TLV. The Type and Length fields of the MIUX parameter TLV
have each a size of 1 byte. The size of the TLV Value field is 2
bytes.
0 0 1 2 3
0 8 6 2 1
+----------+----------+------+-----------+
| Type | Length | Value |
+----------+----------+------+-----------+
| 00000010 | 00000010 | 1011 | 0x0~0x7FF |
+----------+----------+------+-----------+
Figure 2: Example of MIUX Parameter TLV
When the MIUX parameter is used, the TLV Type field MUST be 0x02 and
the TLV Length field MUST be 0x02. The MIUX parameter MUST be
encoded into the least significant 11 bits of the TLV Value field.
The unused bits in the TLV Value field MUST be set to zero by the
sender and ignored by the receiver. The maximum possible value of
the TLV Value field is 0x7FF, and the maximum size of the LLCP MTU is
2176 bytes. If fragmentation functionality is not used at the
adaptation layer between IPv6 and NFC, the MIUX value MUST be 0x480
to support the IPv6 MTU requirement (of 1280 bytes).
4. Specification of IPv6 over NFC
NFC technology also has considerations and requirements owing to low
power consumption and allowed protocol overhead. 6LoWPAN standards
[RFC4944], [RFC6775], and [RFC6282] provide useful functionality for
reducing overhead which can be applied to NFC. This functionality
consists of link-local IPv6 addresses and stateless IPv6 address
auto-configuration (see Section 4.2), Neighbor Discovery (see
Section 4.4) and header compression (see Section 4.6).
4.1. Protocol Stacks
Figure 3 illustrates IPv6 over NFC. Upper layer protocols can be
transport layer protocols (e.g., TCP and UDP), application layer
protocols, and others capable of running on top of IPv6.

Figure 3: Protocol Stack for IPv6 over NFC
The adaptation layer for IPv6 over NFC supports neighbor discovery,
stateless address auto-configuration, header compression, and
fragmentation & reassembly, based on 6LoWPAN.
4.2. Stateless Address Autoconfiguration
An NFC-enabled device performs stateless address autoconfiguration as
per [RFC4862]. A 64-bit Interface identifier (IID) for an NFC
interface is formed by utilizing the 6-bit NFC SSAP (see
Section 3.3). In the viewpoint of address configuration, such an IID
should guarantee a stable IPv6 address during the course of a single
connection, because each data link connection is uniquely identified
by the pair of DSAP and SSAP included in the header of each LLC PDU
in NFC.
Following the guidance of [RFC7136], interface identifiers of all
unicast addresses for NFC-enabled devices are 64 bits long and
constructed by using the generation algorithm of random (but stable)
identifier (RID) [RFC7217] (see Figure 4).

0 6 2 8 3
+---------+---------+---------+---------+
| Random (but stable) Identifier (RID) |
+---------+---------+---------+---------+
Figure 4: IID from NFC-enabled device
The RID is an output which is created by the algorithm, F() with
input parameters. One of the parameters is Net_Iface, and NFC Link
Layer address (i.e., SSAP) is a source of the Net_Iface parameter.
The 6-bit address of SSAP of NFC is easy and short to be targeted by
attacks of third party (e.g., address scanning). The F() can provide
secured and stable IIDs for NFC-enabled devices. In addition, an
Choi, et al. Expires January 10, 2021 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft IPv6 over NFC July 2020
optional parameter, Network_ID is used to increase the randomness of
the generated IID.
4.3. IPv6 Link-Local Address
The IPv6 link-local address for an NFC-enabled device is formed by
appending the IID, to the prefix FE80::/64, as depicted in Figure 5.
0 0 0 1
0 1 6 2

Figure 5: IPv6 link-local address in NFC
A 6LBR may obtain an IPv6 prefix for numbering the NFC network via
DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation ([RFC3633]). The "Interface Identifier" can
be a secured and stable IIDs.
4.4. Neighbor Discovery
Neighbor Discovery Optimization for 6LoWPANs ([RFC6775]) describes
the neighbor discovery approach in several 6LoWPAN topologies, such
as mesh topology. NFC supports mesh topologies but most of all
applications would use a simple multi-hop network topology or
directly connected peer-to-peer network because NFC RF range is very
short.
o When an NFC-enabled 6LN is directly connected to an NFC-enabled
6LBR, the NFC 6LN MUST register its address with the 6LBR by
sending a Neighbor Solicitation (NS) message with the Address
Registration Option (ARO), and process the Neighbor Advertisement
(NA) accordingly. In addition, when the 6LN and 6LBR are directly
connected, DHCPv6 is used for address assignment. Therefore,
Duplicate Address Detection (DAD) is not necessary between them.
o When two or more NFC devices are connected, there are two cases.
One is that three or more NFC devices are linked with multi-hop
connections, and the other is that they meet within a single hop
range (e.g., isolated network). In a case of multi-hop topology,
devices which have two or more connections with neighbor devices,
play a router for 6LR/6LBR. In a case that they meet within a
Choi, et al. Expires January 10, 2021 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft IPv6 over NFC July 2020
single hop and they have the same properties, any of them can be a
router.
o For sending Router Solicitations and processing Router
Advertisements, the NFC 6LNs MUST follow Sections 5.3 and 5.4 of
[RFC6775].
o When a NFC device is a 6LR or a 6LBR, the NFC device MUST follow
Section 6 and 7 of [RFC6775].
4.5. Dispatch Header
All IPv6-over-NFC encapsulated datagrams are prefixed by an
encapsulation header stack consisting of a Dispatch value. The only
sequence currently defined for IPv6-over-NFC is the 6LOWPAN_IPHC
header followed by payload, as depicted in Figure 6.
+---------------+---------------+--------------+
| IPHC Dispatch | IPHC Header | Payload |
+---------------+---------------+--------------+
Figure 6: A IPv6-over-NFC Encapsulated 6LOWPAN_IPHC Compressed IPv6
Datagram
The dispatch value is treated as an unstructured namespace. Only a
single pattern is used to represent current IPv6-over-NFC
functionality.
+------------+--------------------+-----------+
| Pattern | Header Type | Reference |
+------------+--------------------+-----------+
| 01 1xxxxx | 6LOWPAN_IPHC | [RFC6282] |
+------------+--------------------+-----------+
Figure 7: Dispatch Values
Other IANA-assigned 6LoWPAN Dispatch values do not apply to this
specification.
4.6. Header Compression
Header compression as defined in [RFC6282], which specifies the
compression format for IPv6 datagrams on top of IEEE 802.15.4, is
REQUIRED in this document as the basis for IPv6 header compression on
top of NFC. All headers MUST be compressed according to RFC 6282
encoding formats.
Choi, et al. Expires January 10, 2021 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft IPv6 over NFC July 2020
Therefore, IPv6 header compression in [RFC6282] MUST be implemented.
Further, implementations MUST also support Generic Header Compression
(GHC) of [RFC7400].
If a 16-bit address is required as a short address, it MUST be formed
by padding the 6-bit NFC link-layer (node) address to the left with
zeros as shown in Figure 8.

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5

| Padding(all zeros)| NFC Addr. |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Figure 8: NFC short address format
4.7. Fragmentation and Reassembly Considerations
IPv6-over-NFC SHOULD NOT use fragmentation and reassembly (FAR) for
the payloads as discussed in Section 3.4. The NFC link connection
for IPv6 over NFC MUST be configured with an equivalent MIU size to
fit the MTU of IPv6 Packet. The MIUX value is 0x480 in order to fit
the MTU (1280 bytes) of a IPv6 packet if NFC devices support
extension of the MTU.
4.8. Unicast and Multicast Address Mapping
The address resolution procedure for mapping IPv6 non-multicast
addresses into NFC link-layer addresses follows the general
description in Section 4.6.1 and 7.2 of [RFC4861], unless otherwise
specified.
The Source/Target link-layer Address option has the following form
when the addresses are 6-bit NFC link-layer (node) addresses.
0 1

Option fields:
Type:
1: for Source Link-layer address.
2: for Target Link-layer address.
Length:
This is the length of this option (including the type and
length fields) in units of 8 octets. The value of this field
is 1 for 6-bit NFC node addresses.
NFC address:
The 6-bit address in canonical bit order. This is the unicast
address the interface currently responds to.
The NFC Link Layer does not support multicast. Therefore, packets
are always transmitted by unicast between two NFC-enabled devices.
Even in the case where a 6LBR is attached to multiple 6LNs, the 6LBR
cannot do a multicast to all the connected 6LNs. If the 6LBR needs
to send a multicast packet to all its 6LNs, it has to replicate the
packet and unicast it on each link.
5. Internet Connectivity Scenarios
NFC networks can either be isolated or connected to the Internet.
The NFC link between two communicating devices is considered to be a
point-to-point link only. An NFC link does not support a star
topology or mesh network topology but only direct connections between
two devices. The NFC link layer does not support packet forwarding
in link layer.
5.1. NFC-enabled Device Connected to the Internet
Figure 10 illustrates an example of an NFC-enabled device network
connected to the Internet. The distance between 6LN and 6LBR is
typically 10 cm or less. If there is any laptop computers close to a
user, it will become a 6LBR. Additionally, when the user mounts an
NFC-enabled air interface adapter (e.g., portable NFC dongle) on the
close laptop PC, the user's NFC-enabled device (6LN) can communicate
with the laptop PC (6LBR) within 10 cm distance.

Two or more 6LNs are connected with a 6LBR, but each connection uses
a different subnet. The 6LBR is acting as a router and forwarding
packets between 6LNs and the Internet. Also, the 6LBR MUST ensure
address collisions do not occur and forwards packets sent by one 6LN
to another.
5.2. Isolated NFC-enabled Device Network
In some scenarios, the NFC-enabled device network may transiently be
a simple isolated network as shown in the Figure 11.

6. IANA Considerations
There are no IANA considerations related to this document.
7. Security Considerations
There are the intrinsic security properties of NFC due to its short
link range. When interface identifiers (IIDs) are generated, devices
and users are required to consider mitigating various threats, such
as correlation of activities over time, location tracking, device-
specific vulnerability exploitation, and address scanning.
IPv6-over-NFC uses an IPv6 interface identifier formed from a "Short
Address" and a set of well-known constant bits for the modified
EUI-64 format. However, NFC applications use short-lived

connections, and a different address is used for each connection,
where the latter is of extremely short duration.
