Internet-Draft Diameter MIP6: HA-to-AAAH Support October 2008
Abstract
Mobile IPv6 deployments may want to bootstrap their operations
dynamically based on an interaction between the Home Agent and the
Diameter server of the Mobile Service Provider (MSP). This document
specifies the interaction between a Mobile IP Home Agent and that
Diameter server.
Several different mechanisms for authenticating a Mobile Node are
supported. The usage of the Internet Key Exchange v2 (IKEv2)
protocol allows different mechanisms, such as the Extensible
Authentication Protocol (EAP), certificates and pre-shared secrets to
be used. Furthermore, another method makes use of the Mobile IPv6
Authentication Protocol. In addition to authentication and
authorization, the configuration of Mobile IPv6 specific parameters
and accounting is specified in this document.

Internet-Draft Diameter MIP6: HA-to-AAAH Support October 2008
1. Introduction
Performing the Mobile IPv6 protocol [1], requires the Mobile Node
(MN) to own a Home Address (HoA) and to have an assigned Home Agent
(HA) to the MN. The MN needs to register with the HA in order to
enable its reachability and mobility, when away from its home link.
The registration process itself may require an establishment of IPsec
security associations (SA) and cryptographic material between the MN
and HA. Alternatively, the registration process may be secured using
a mobility message authentication option, which enables IPv6 mobility
in a MN without having to establish an IPsec SA with its HA.
Providing the collection of home address, HA address and keying
material is generally referred to as the Mobile IPv6 bootstrapping
problem [15]. The purpose of this specification is to provide
Diameter support for the interaction between the HA and the
Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) server. This
specification satisfies the requirements defined in [16] for the
bootstrapping problem in the split scenario [2] and also specifies
Diameter support for the Authentication Protocol for Mobile IPv6 [3].
The Diameter support defined in this specification also applies to
Dual Stack Mobile IPv6 [17].
From a Mobility Service Provider (MSP) perspective, it is important
to verify that the MN is authenticated and authorized to utilize
Mobile IPv6 service, and is accounted for those. Only when the MN is
authenticated and authorized, the MSP allows the bootstrapping of
Mobile IPv6 parameters. Thus, prior to processing the Mobile IPv6
registrations, the HA, participates in the authentication of the MN
to verify the MN's identity. The HA also participates in the Mobile
IPv6 authorization process involving the Diameter infrastructure.
The HA, due to its role in traffic forwarding, may also perform
accounting for the Mobile IPv6 service provided to the MN.
This document enables the following functionality:
Authentication: Asserting or helping with assertion of the
correctness of the MN identity. As a Diameter client supporting
the new Diameter Mobile IPv6 application, the HA may need to
support more than one authentication type depending on the
environment. Although the authentication is performed by the AAA
server there is an impact for the HA as different set of command
codes are needed for the respective authentication procedures.
Authorization: The HA must verify that the user is authorized to the
Mobile IPv6 service using the assistance of the MSP Diameter
servers. This is accomplished through the use of new Diameter
applications specifically designed for performing Mobile IPv6
authorization decisions. This document defines required AAA
Korhonen, et al. Expires April 30, 2009 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft Diameter MIP6: HA-to-AAAH Support October 2008
procedures and requires the HA to support them and to participate
in this authorization signaling.
Accounting: For accounting purposes and capacity planning, it is
required of the HA to provide accounting report to the Diameter
infrastructure and thus to support the related Diameter accounting
procedures.
Session Management: The management of the mobility services may
require the AAA to abort or the HA to terminate the Mobile IPv6
service before the binding expires. This document defines
procedures for the AAA based session management.

Figure 1: Architecture Overview
Mobile IPv6 signaling between the MN and the HA can be protected
using two different mechanisms, namely using IPsec or Authentication
Protocol for Mobile IPv6 [3]. For these two approaches several
different authentication and key exchange solutions are available.
When IPsec is used to protect Mobile IPv6 signaling messages, IKEv2
is used [4]. IKEv2 supports EAP-based initiator authentication,
certificates and pre-shared secrets. Alternatively, Authentication
Protocol for Mobile IPv6 uses a mechanism that is very similar to the
one used for protecting Mobile IPv4 signaling messages.
The ability to use different credentials and methods to authenticate
the MN has an impact on the AAA interactions between the HA (acting
as a Diameter client) and the Diameter Server. This specification is
only limited to the following MN authentication methods:
Korhonen, et al. Expires April 30, 2009 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft Diameter MIP6: HA-to-AAAH Support October 2008
o IKEv2 usage with EAP
o Mobile IPv6 Authentication Protocol
New authentication mechanisms may be added later by separate
specifications.
For accounting of Mobile IPv6 services provided to the MN, this
specification uses the Diameter Base Protocol accounting defined in
RFC 3588 [5].
2. Terminology
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [6].
The Mobile IPv6 bootstrapping terminology is taken from [15].
Additional terminology is defined below:
Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA):
AAA protocol based on Diameter [5] with required EAP support [7].
Home AAA (AAAH):
An authentication, authorization and accounting server located in
user's home network i.e., in the home realm.
3. Application Identifiers
This specification defines two new Diameter applications and their
respective Application Identifiers:
Diameter Mobile IPv6 IKE (MIP6I) TBD by IANA
Diameter Mobile IPv6 Auth (MIP6A) TBD by IANA
The MIP6I Application Identifier is used when the MN is authenticated
and authorized using IKEv2. The MIP6A Application Identifier is used
when the MN is authenticated and authorized using Mobile IPv6
Authentication Protocol.
Mobile IPv6 related accounting generated by the HA uses either MIP6I
or MIP6A Application Identifier in the case of coupled accounting
model. Diameter Base Accounting Application Identifier (value of 3)
is used in the case of split accounting model. Refer Section 4.4 for
Korhonen, et al. Expires April 30, 2009 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft Diameter MIP6: HA-to-AAAH Support October 2008
more information regarding the accounting models.
4. Protocol Description
4.1. Support for Mobile IPv6 with IKEv2 and EAP
The use of IKEv2 with EAP between the MN and the HA allows the AAA to
authenticate the MN. When EAP is used with IKEv2, the Diameter EAP
application logic and procedures, as defined in [7], are re-used.
EAP methods that do not establish a shared key SHOULD NOT be used, as
they are subject to a number of man-in-the-middle attacks as stated
in Section 2.16 and Section 5 of RFC 4306 [8]. AVPs specific to
Mobile IPv6 bootstrapping are added to the EAP application commands.
Figure 3 shows the message flow involved during the authentication
phase when EAP is used.

Figure 3: Mobile IPv6 bootstrapping using IKEv2 and EAP
The MN and the HA start the interaction with an IKE_SA_INIT exchange.
Korhonen, et al. Expires April 30, 2009 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft Diameter MIP6: HA-to-AAAH Support October 2008
In this phase cryptographic algorithms are negotiated, nonces and
Diffie-Hellman parameters are exchanged. Message (3) starts the
IKE_AUTH phase. This second phase authenticates the previous
messages, exchanges identities and certificates and establishes the
first CHILD_SA. It is used to mutually authenticate the MN (acting
as an IKEv2 Initiator) and the HA (acting as an IKEv2 Responder).
The identity of the user/MN is provided in the IDi field. The MN
indicates its willingness to be authenticated via EAP by omitting the
AUTH field in message (3) (see Section 2.16 of [8]).
As part of the authentication process, the MN MAY request a Home-
Address, a Home Prefix or suggests one, see [4], using a CFG_REQUEST
payload in the message (3).
The HA extracts the IDi field from the message (3) and sends a
Diameter-EAP-Request (DER) message (4) towards the authenticating
Diameter server. The EAP-Payload AVP contains a EAP-Response/
Identity with the identity extracted from the IDi field.
This message is routed to the MN's Diameter server/EAP server. The
Diameter server selects the EAP method and replies with the Diameter-
EAP-Answer (DEA) Message. Depending on the type of EAP method
chosen, a number of DER and DEA messages carry the method specific
exchanges between the MN and the Diameter server/EAP server.
At the end of the EAP authentication phase, the Diameter server
indicates the result of the authentication in the Result-Code AVP and
provides the corresponding EAP packet (EAP Success or EAP Failure).
The last IKEv2 message sent by the HA contains the Home Address or
the Home Prefix. In the latter case, a CREATE_CHILD_SA exchange is
necessary to setup IPsec SAs for Mobile IPv6 signaling.
In some deployment scenarios, the HA may also acts as a IKEv2
Responder for IPsec VPN access. A problem in this case is that the
IKEv2 responder may not know if IKEv2 is used for Mobile IPv6 service
or for IPsec VPN access service. A network operator needs to be
aware of this limitation. The MN may provide a hint of the intended
service, for example, by using different identities in the IKE_AUTH
message for the IPsec VPN service and Mobile IPv6 service. However,
the use of different identities during the IKEv2 negotiation is
deployment specific. Another possibility is to make the distinction
on the MN subscription basis. In this case the Diameter server can
inform the HA during the IKEv2 negotiation whether the MN is
provisioned with an IPsec VPN access service or Mobile IPv6 service.
Eventually, when the HA receives a Binding Update (BU), the HA
authenticates and authorizes the MN. It is RECOMMENDED that the HA
sends an accounting request message every time it receives a BU.
Korhonen, et al. Expires April 30, 2009 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft Diameter MIP6: HA-to-AAAH Support October 2008
4.2. Support for the Mobile IPv6 Authentication Protocol
Figure 4 shows the message sequence between the MN, the HA and the
Diameter server during the registration when Mobile IPv6
Authentication Protocol is used. A BU and a Binding Acknowledgement
(BA) messages are used in the binding registration process.
Receiving a BU at the HA initiates a MIP6-Request to be sent to the
Diameter server. The Diameter server in turn responds with a MIP6-
Answer. The HA may assign a Home Address to the MN and provide it to
the Diameter server in the MIP-Mobile-Node-Address AVP.
According to [3] the MN uses the Mobile Node Identifier Option,
specifically the MN-NAI mobility option (as defined in [18]) to
identify itself. The HA MUST copy the MN-NAI mobility option value
to the User-Name AVP in the subsequent request messages.
The procedure described in this specification for the Mobile IPv6
Authentication Protocol is only needed for the initially received BU
for which the HA does not have an existing security association.
When the HA receives subsequent BUs, they are processed locally in
the HA. It is RECOMMENDED that the HA sends an accounting request
message every time it receives a Binding Update. However, the HA MAY
re-authorize the MN with the Diameter server at any time depending on
the deployment and the local policy.
In some architectures and network deployments the MN-HA security
associations may be established as a result of a successful network
access authentication. In such deployments, both MN and Diameter
server share the keying material required for computation and
validation of the MN-HA Authentication Option, and a Security
Parameter Index (SPI) for indexing an appropriate security
association. Upon receiving a BU with a MN-HA Authentication Option,
the HA retrieves the keying material required for the computation and
validation of the MN-HA Authentication Option from the Diameter
server. The Diameter request message sent by the HA must contain
enough information (such as SPI, MN-NAI, etc) so that the Diameter
server is able to locate the matching MN-HA security association and
return correct keying material back to the HA.
This specification assumes that in the case Mobile IPv6
Authentication Protocol is used, the MN-AAA option is included in the
BU. Other possible uses of Mobile IPv6 Authentication Protocol are
out of scope of this specification and would require a new
specification to describe the detailed behavior of the HA-AAAH
interface. However, the HA-AAAH interface has been designed in a way
that the Mobile IPv6 Authentication Protocol may also be used without
the MN-AAA option.

4.3. Mobile IPv6 Session Management
The Diameter server may maintain state or may be stateless. This is
indicated in the Auth-Session-State AVP (or its absence). The HA
MUST support the Authorization Session State Machine defined in [5].
Moreover, the following four commands may be exchanged between the HA
and the Diameter server.
4.3.1. Session-Termination-Request
The Session-Termination-Request (STR) message [5] is sent by the HA
to inform the Diameter server that an authorized session is being
terminated.
4.3.2. Session-Termination-Answer
The Session-Termination-Answer (STA) message [5] is sent by the
Diameter server to acknowledge the notification that the session has
been terminated.
4.3.3. Abort-Session-Request
The Abort-Session-Request (ASR) message [5] is sent by the Diameter
server to terminate the session. This fulfills one of the
requirement described in [16].
Korhonen, et al. Expires April 30, 2009 [Page 12]
Internet-Draft Diameter MIP6: HA-to-AAAH Support October 2008
4.3.4. Abort-Session-Answer
The Abort-Session-Answer (ASA) message [5] is sent by the Home Agent
in response to an ASR message.
4.4. Accounting for Mobile IPv6 services
The HA MUST be able act as a Diameter client collecting accounting
records needed for service control and charging. The HA MUST support
the accounting procedures (specifically the command codes mentioned
below) and the Accounting Session State Machine as defined in [5].
The command codes, exchanged between the HA and Diameter server for
accounting purposes, are provided in the following subsections.
The Diameter application design guideline [19] defines two separate
models for accounting:
Split accounting model:
According to this model, the accounting messages use the Diameter
Base Accounting Application Identifier (value of 3). Since
accounting is treated as an independent application, accounting
commands may be routed separately from the rest of application
messages and thus the accounting messages generally end up in a
central accounting server. Since Diameter Mobile IPv6 application
does not define its own unique accounting commands, this is the
preferred choice, since it permits use of centralized accounting
for several applications.
Coupled accounting model:
In this model, the accounting messages will use either the Mobile
IPv6 Split or the Mobile IPv6 Auth Application Identifiers. This
means that accounting messages will be routed like any other
Mobile IPv6 application messages. This requires the Diameter
server in charge of Mobile IPv6 application to handle the
accounting records (e.g., sends them to a proper accounting
server).
As mentioned above, the preferred choice is to use the split
accounting model and thus to choose Diameter Base Accounting
Application Identifier (value of 3) for accounting messages.
4.4.1. Accounting-Request
The Accounting-Request command [5] is sent by the HA to the Diameter
server to exchange accounting information regarding the MN with the
Diameter server.
Korhonen, et al. Expires April 30, 2009 [Page 13]
Internet-Draft Diameter MIP6: HA-to-AAAH Support October 2008
4.4.2. Accounting-Answer
The Accounting-Answer command [5] is sent by the Diameter server to
the HA to acknowledge receiving an Accounting-Request.
5. Command Codes
5.1. Command Code for Mobile IPv6 with IKEv2 and EAP
For the use of Mobile IPv6 with IKEv2 and EAP this document reuses
the Diameter EAP application [7] commands: Diameter-EAP-Request (DER)
and Diameter-EAP-Answer (DEA). This specification extends the
existing DER and DEA command ABNFs with a number AVPs to support
Mobile IPv6 split scenario bootstrapping. Other than new additional
AVPs and the corresponding additions to the command ABNFs, the
Diameter EAP application command ABNFs remain unchanged.

Mobile IPv6 bootstrapping AVPs are only included in the first DER
message send by the HA. The subsequent DER messages required by the
EAP-method do not need to include any Mobile IPv6 bootstrapping AVPs.
The MN is both authenticated and authorized for the mobility service
during the EAP authentication. Thus the Auth-Request-Type AVP is set
to the value AUTHORIZE_AUTHENTICATE.
5.1.2. Diameter-EAP-Answer
The Diameter-EAP-Answer (DEA) message, indicated by the Command-Code
field set to 268 and 'R' bit cleared in the Command Flags field, is
sent in response to the Diameter-EAP-Request message (DER). The
Application-Id field in the Diameter message header MUST be set to
the Diameter Mobile IPv6 IKE Application-Id (value of TBD). If the
Mobile IPv6 authentication procedure was successful then the response
MAY include any set of bootstrapping AVPs.

are included in the last DEA message that also carries the EAP-
Success EAP payload. The other DEA messages required by the used
EAP-method do not include any Mobile IPv6 bootstrapping AVPs.
5.2. Command Codes for Mobile IPv6 Authentication Protocol Support
This section defines the commands that are used for support with the
Mobile IPv6 Authentication Protocol.
There are multiple ways of deploying and utilizing Mobile IPv6
Authentication Protocol, especially regarding the associated AAA
interactions. In order to support multiple deployment models this
specification defines the MIP6-Auth-Mode AVP that in the request
message tells the mode that the HA supports. This specification
defines a method that requires the use of the MN-AAA option with the
Mobile IPv6 Authentication Protocol.

AVPs for the Mobile IPv6 Auth Application
Note 1: The MIP6-Feature-Vector is defined in Section 4.7.4 of [10].
Note 2: The QoS-Capability and QoS-Resource AVPs are defined in
Sections 4.1 and 4.3 of [11].
Note 3: The MIP6-Agent-Info is defined in Section 4.5.1 of [10].
6.1. User-Name AVP
The User-Name AVP (AVP Code 1) is of type UTF8String and contains an
NAI extracted from the MN-NAI mobility option included in the
received BU message. Alternatively, the NAI can be extracted from
the IKEv2 IDi payload included in the IKE_AUTH message sent by the
IKE initiator.
6.2. Service-Selection AVP
The Service-Selection AVP (AVP Code TBD) is of type UTF8String and
contains the name of the service or the external network that the
mobility service should be associated with. In the scope of this
specification the value can extracted from the IKEv2 IDr payload, if
available in the IKE_AUTH message sent by the IKE initiator.
Alternatively, if the Mobile IPv6 Authentication Protocol is used,
then the Service-Selection AVP contains the string extracted from the
Service Selection Mobility Option [20], if available in the received
BU. Future specification may define additional ways to populate the
Service-Selection AVP with the required information.
This specification uses the Service-Selection AVP only in the
messages sent from the Diameter client to the Diameter Server.
However, the AVP is also available to be used in messages sent from
the Diameter server to the Diameter client.

6.3. MIP-MN-AAA-SPI AVP
The MIP-MN-AAA-SPI AVP (AVP Code 341) is of type Unsigned32 and
contains an SPI code extracted from the Mobility Message
Authentication Option included in the received BU message. The HA
includes this AVP in the MIR message when the MN-AAA Mobility Message
Authentication Option is available in the received BU (and the MIP6-
Auth-Mode AVP is set to value MIP6_AUTH_MN_AAA).
This AVP is re-used from [12].
6.4. MIP-MN-HA-SPI AVP
The MIP-MN-HA-SPI AVP (AVP Code TBD) is of type Unsigned32 and
contains an SPI code which can be used with other parameters for
identifying the security association required for the validation of
the Mobile IPv6 MN-HA Authentication Option.
When included in the MIR message, the Diameter server needs to return
a valid MIP-MN-HA-MSA AVP in the corresponding MIA message. Either
the MIP-MN-HA-SPI AVP or the MIP-MN-AAA-SPI AVP MUST be present in
the MIR message, but not both.
6.5. MIP-Mobile-Node-Address AVP
The MIP-Mobile-Node-Address AVP (AVP Code 333) is of type Address and
contains the HA assigned IPv6 or IPv4 Home Address of the Mobile
Node.
If the MIP-Mobile-Node-Address AVP contains unspecified IPv6 address
(0::0) or all zeroes IPv4 address (0.0.0.0) in a request message,
then the HA expects the Diameter server to assign the Home Address in
a subsequent answer message. If the Diameter server assigns only an
IPv6 Home Network Prefix to the Mobile Node the lower 64 bits of the
MIP-Mobile-Node-Address AVP provided address MUST be set to zero.
This AVP is re-used from [12].
6.6. MIP6-Agent-Info AVP
The MIP6-Agent-Info AVP is defined in Section 4.5.1 of [10] and
contains the IPv6 or the IPv4 address information of the HA. The HA
address in a request message is the same as in the received BU
message that triggered the authentication and authorization procedure
towards the Diameter server.
If the MIP6-Agent-Info AVP is present in an answer message and the
Result-Code AVP is set to DIAMETER_SUCCESS_RELOCATE_HA, then the
Korhonen, et al. Expires April 30, 2009 [Page 22]

Diameter server is indicating to the HA that it MUST initiate a HA
switch procedure towards the MN (e.g., using the procedure defined in
[13]). If the Result-Code AVP is set to any other value, then the HA
SHOULD initiate the HA switch procedure towards the MN. The address
information of the assigned HA is defined in the MIP6-Agent-Info AVP.
6.7. MIP-Careof-Address AVP
The MIP-Careof-Address AVP (AVP Code TBD) is of type Address and
contains the IPv6 Care-of Address of the Mobile Node. The HA
extracts this IP address from the received BU message.
6.8. MIP-Authenticator AVP
The MIP-Authenticator AVP (AVP Code TBD) is of type OctetString and
contains the Authenticator Data from the received BU message. The HA
extracts this data from the MN-AAA Mobility Message Authentication
Option included in the received BU message. The HA includes this AVP
in the MIR message and sets the Diameter server is expected to return
the key material required for the calculation and validation of the
Mobile IPv6 MN-HA Authentication Option (and the MIP6-Auth-Mode AVP
is set to value MIP6_AUTH_MN_AAA).
6.9. MIP-MAC-Mobility-Data AVP
The MIP-MAC-Mobility-Data AVP (AVP Code TBD) is of type OctetString
and contains the calculated MAC_Mobility_Data, as defined in [3].
The HA includes this AVP in the MIR message when the MN-AAA Mobility
Message Authentication Option is available in the received BU and the
Diameter server is expected to return the key material required for
the calculation and validation of the Mobile IPv6 MN-HA
Authentication Option (and the MIP6-Auth-Mode AVP is set to value
MIP6_AUTH_MN_AAA).
6.10. MIP-Session-Key AVP
The MIP-Session-Key AVP (AVP Code 343) is of type OctetString and
contains the MN-HA shared secret (i.e., the session key) for the
associated Mobile IPv6 MH-HA authentication option. When the
Diameter server computes the session key it is placed in this AVP.
This AVP is re-used from [12].
6.11. MIP-MSA-Lifetime AVP
The MIP-MSA-Lifetime AVP (AVP Code 367) is of type Unsigned32 and
represents the period of time (in seconds) for which the session key
(see Section 6.10) is valid. The associated session key MUST NOT be

* [ AVP ]
The MIP-MN-HA-SPI sub-AVP within the MIP-MN-HA-MSA grouped AVP
identifies the security association required for the validation of
the Mobile IPv6 MN-HA Authentication Option.
6.13. MIP-Algorithm-Type AVP
The MIP-Algorithm-Type AVP (AVP Code 345) is of type Enumerated and
contains Algorithm identifier for the associated Mobile IPv6 MN-HA
Authentication Option. The Diameter server selects the algorithm
type. Existing algorithm types are defined in RFC 4004 that also
fulfill current RFC 4285 requirements.
This AVP is re-used from [12].
6.14. MIP-Replay-Mode AVP
The MIP-Replay-Mode AVP (AVP Code 346) is of type Enumerated and
contains the replay mode the HA for authenticating the mobile node.
The replay modes, defined in RFC 4004 [12], are supported.
This AVP is re-used from [12].
6.15. MIP6-Feature-Vector AVP
The MIP6-Feature-Vector AVP (AVP Code TBD) is of type Unsigned64 and
defined in [10]. This document defines a new capability flag bit for
signaling the support of Mobile IPv6 split scenario bootstrapping.
Korhonen, et al. Expires April 30, 2009 [Page 24]
Internet-Draft Diameter MIP6: HA-to-AAAH Support October 2008
MIP6_SPLIT (0x0000000100000000)
When this flag is set by the NAS then it means that the Mobile
IPv6 split scenario bootstrapping functionality is supported by
the NAS. When this flag is set by the Diameter server then the
Mobile IPv6 split scenario bootstrapping is supported by the
Diameter server.
6.16. MIP-Timestamp AVP
The MIP-Timestamp AVP (AVP Code TBD) is of type Time and may contain
the timestamp value from the Mobility message replay protection
option, defined in [3]. The HA extracts this value from the received
BU message, if available. The HA includes this AVP in the MIR
message when the MN-AAA Mobility Message Authentication Option is
available in the received BU and the Diameter server is expected to
return the key material required for the calculation and validation
of the Mobile IPv6 MN-HA Authentication Option (and the MIP6-Auth-
Mode AVP is set to value MIP6_AUTH_MN_AAA).
6.17. QoS-Capability AVP
The QoS-Capability AVP is defined in [11] and contains a list of
supported Quality of Service profiles.

The QoS-Resources AVP is defined in [11] and provides QoS and packet
filtering capabilities.
6.19. Chargeable-User-Identity AVP
The Chargeable-User-Identity AVP (AVP code 89) is of type OctetString
and contains an unique temporary handle of the user. The Chargeable-
User-Identity is defined in RFC 4372 [14].
6.20. MIP6-Auth-Mode AVP
The MIP6-Auth-Mode (AVP Code TBD) is of type Enumerated and contains
information of the used Mobile IPv6 Authentication Protocol mode.
This specification defines only one value MIP6_AUTH_MN_AAA and the
corresponding AAA interactions when MN-AAA security association is
used to authenticate the Binding Update. When the MIP6-Auth_Mode AVP
is set to the value of MIP6_AUTH_MN_AAA, the Auth-Request-Type AVP
MUST be set to the value of AUTHORIZE_AUTHENTICATE.
If the Diameter server does not support the Mobile IPv6

9. IANA Considerations
This section contains the namespaces that have either been created in
this specification or had their values assigned to existing
namespaces managed by IANA.
9.1. Command Codes
IANA is requested to allocate a command code values for the following
new commands from the Command Code namespace defined in [5]. See
Section 5 for the assignment of the namespace in this specification.
Command Code | Value
-----------------------------------+------
MIP6-Request (MIR) | TBD
MIP6-Answer (MIA) | TBD
9.2. AVP Codes
This specification requires IANA to register the following new AVPs
from the AVP Code namespace defined in [5].
Korhonen, et al. Expires April 30, 2009 [Page 29]
Internet-Draft Diameter MIP6: HA-to-AAAH Support October 2008
o MIP-Careof-Address
o MIP-Authenticator
o MIP-MAC-Mobility-Data
o MIP-Timestamp
o MIP-MN-HA-SPI
o MIP-MN-HA-MSA
o Service-Selection
o MIP6-Auth-Mode
The AVPs are defined in Section 6.
9.3. Result-Code AVP Values
This specification requests IANA to allocate new values to the
Result-Code AVP (AVP Code 268) namespace defined in [5]. See
Section 7 for the assignment of the namespace in this specification.
Result-Code | Value
----------------------------------------------+------
DIAMETER_SUCCESS_RELOCATE_HA | TBD
DIAMETER_ERROR_END_TO_END_MIP6_KEY_ENCRYPTION | TBD
DIAMETER_ERROR_MIP6_AUTH_MODE | TBD
9.4. Application Identifier
This specification requires IANA to allocate two new values "Diameter
Mobile IPv6 IKE" and "Diameter Mobile IPv6 Auth" from the Application
Identifier namespace defined in [5].
Application Identifier | Value
-----------------------------------+------
Diameter Mobile IPv6 IKE (MIP6I) | TBD
Diameter Mobile IPv6 Auth (MIP6A) | TBD
9.5. Namespaces
This specification defines new values to the "Mobility Capability"
registry (see [10]) for use with the MIP6-Feature-Vector AVP:
Token | Value | Description
---------------------------------+----------------------+------------
MIP6_SPLIT | 0x0000000100000000 | RFC TBD
IANA is requested to create a new registry "MIP6 Authentication Mode"
registry for use with the enumerated MIP6-Auth-Mode AVP. The
registry will initially contain the following values:
Korhonen, et al. Expires April 30, 2009 [Page 30]
Internet-Draft Diameter MIP6: HA-to-AAAH Support October 2008
Token | Value | Description
---------------------------------------------+----------+------------
MIP6_AUTH_MN_AAA | 1 | RFC TBD
Allocation of new values follow the example policies described in
[21] new values for the MIP6-Auth-Mode AVP will be assigned based on
the "Specification Required" policy.
10. Security Considerations
The security considerations for the Diameter interaction required to
accomplish the split scenario are described in in [2]. Additionally,
the security considerations of the Diameter Base protocol [5],
Diameter EAP application [7] are applicable to this document.
The Diameter messages may be transported between the HA and the
Diameter server via one or more AAA brokers or Diameter agents. In
this case the HA to the Diameter server AAA communication rely on the
security properties of the intermediate AAA brokers and Diameter
agents (such as proxies).
