                     Distributed Mobility Anchoring
            draft-ietf-dmm-distributed-mobility-anchoring-09

Abstract

   This document defines distributed mobility anchoring in terms of the
   different configurations and functions to provide IP mobility
   support.  A network may be configured with distributed mobility
   anchoring functions for both network-based or host-based mobility
   support according to the needs of mobility support.  In the
   distributed mobility anchoring environment, multiple anchors are
   available for mid-session switching of an IP prefix anchor.  To start
   a new flow or to handle a flow not requiring IP session continuity as
   a mobile node moves to a new network, the flow can be started or re-
   started using a new IP address configured from the new IP prefix
   which is anchored to the new network.  The mobility functions and
   their operations and parameters are general for different
   configurations.

1.  Introduction

   A key requirement in distributed mobility management [RFC7333] is to
   enable traffic to avoid traversing a single mobility anchor far from
   an optimal route.  This document defines different configurations,
   functional operations and parameters for distributed mobility
   anchoring and explains how to use them to make the route changes to
   avoid unnecessarily long routes.

Internet-Draft       distributed mobility anchoring            July 2018


   Companion distributed mobility management documents are already
   addressing the architecture and deployment
   [I-D.ietf-dmm-deployment-models], source address selection
   [I-D.ietf-dmm-ondemand-mobility], and control-plane data-plane
   signaling [I-D.ietf-dmm-fpc-cpdp].  A number of distributed mobility
   solutions have also been proposed, for example, in
   [I-D.seite-dmm-dma], [I-D.bernardos-dmm-pmipv6-dlif],
   [I-D.sarikaya-dmm-for-wifi], [I-D.yhkim-dmm-enhanced-anchoring], and
   [I-D.matsushima-stateless-uplane-vepc].

   Distributed mobility anchoring employs multiple anchors in the data
   plane.  In general, control plane functions may be separated from
   data plane functions and be centralized but may also be co-located
   with the data plane functions at the distributed anchors.  Different
   configurations of distributed mobility anchoring are described in
   Section 3.1.

   As an MN attaches to an access router and establishes a link between
   them, a /64 IPv6 prefix anchored to the router may be assigned to the
   link for exclusive use by the MN [RFC6459].  The MN may then
   configure a global IPv6 address from this prefix and use it as the
   source IP address in a flow to communicate with its correspondent
   node (CN).  When there are multiple mobility anchors assigned to the
   same MN, an address selection for a given flow is first required
   before the flow is initiated.  Using an anchor in an MN's network of
   attachment has the advantage that the packets can simply be forwarded
   according to the forwarding table.  However, after the flow has been
   initiated, the MN may later move to another network which assigns a
   new mobility anchor to the MN.  Since the new anchor is located in a
   different network, the MN's assigned prefix and the built MN IP
   address does not belong to the network where the MN is currently
   attached.

   When the MN wants to continue using its assigned prefix and IP
   address, e.g., to complete ongoing data sessions after it moved to a
   new network, the network needs to provide support for IP address- and
   session continuity, since routing packets to the MN through the new
   network deviates from applying default routes.  The IP session
   continuity needs of a flow (application) determines the how the IP
   address used by the traffic of this flow has to be anchored.  If the
   ongoing IP flow can cope with an IP prefix/address change, the flow
   can be reinitiated with a new IP address anchored in the new network.
   On the other hand, if the ongoing IP flow cannot cope with such
   change, mobility support is needed.  A network supporting a mix of
   flows both requiring and not requiring IP mobility support will need
   to distinguish these flows.

2.  Conventions and Terminology

   All general mobility-related terms and their acronyms used in this
   document are to be interpreted as defined in the Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6)
   base specification [RFC6275], the Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6)
   specification [RFC5213], the "Mobility Related Terminologies"
   [RFC3753], and the DMM current practices and gap analysis [RFC7429].
   These include terms such as mobile node (MN), correspondent node
   (CN), home agent (HA), home address (HoA), care-of-address (CoA),
   local mobility anchor (LMA), and mobile access gateway (MAG).

   In addition, this document uses the following terms:

   Home network of a home address:  the network that has assigned the
      HoA used as the session identifier by the application running in
      an MN.  The MN may be running multiple application sessions, and
      each of these sessions can have a different home network.


   Anchor (of an IP prefix/address):  An IP prefix, i.e., Home Network
      Prefix (HNP), or address, i.e., HoA, assigned for use by an MN is
      topologically anchored to an anchor node when the anchor node is
      able to advertise a connected route into the routing
      infrastructure for the assigned IP prefix.  The traffic using the
      assigned IP address/prefix must traverse the anchor node.  We can
      refer to the function performed by IP anchor node as anchoring,
      which is a data plane function.


   Location Management (LM) function:  control plane function that keeps
      and manages the network location information of an MN.  The
      location information may be a binding of the advertised IP
      address/prefix, e.g., HoA or HNP, to the IP routing address of the
      MN or of a node that can forward packets destined to the MN.

      When the MN is a mobile router (MR) carrying a mobile network of
      mobile network nodes (MNN), the location information will also
      include the mobile network prefix (MNP), which is the aggregate IP
      prefix delegated to the MR to assign IP prefixes for use by the
      MNNs in the mobile network.

      In a client-server protocol model, location query and update
      messages may be exchanged between a Location Management client
      (LMc) and a Location Management server (LMs), where the location
      information can be updated to or queried from the LMc.
      Optionally, there may be a Location Management proxy (LMp) between
      LMc and LMs.

Internet-Draft       distributed mobility anchoring            July 2018


      With separation of control plane and data plane, the LM function
      is in the control plane.  It may be a logical function at the
      control plane node, control plane anchor, or mobility controller.

      It may be distributed or centralized.


   Forwarding Management (FM) function:  packet interception and
      forwarding to/from the IP address/prefix assigned for use by the
      MN, based on the internetwork location information, either to the
      destination or to some other network element that knows how to
      forward the packets to their destination.

      This function may be used to achieve traffic indirection.  With
      separation of control plane and data plane, the FM function may
      split into a FM function in the data plane (FM-DP) and a FM
      function in the control plane (FM-CP).

      FM-DP may be distributed with distributed mobility management.  It
      may be a function in a data plane anchor or data plane node.

      FM-CP may be distributed or centralized.  It may be a function in
      a control plane node, control plane anchor or mobility controller.



3.  Distributed Mobility Anchoring

3.1.  Configurations for Different Networks

   We next describe some configurations with multiple distributed
   anchors.  To cover the widest possible spectrum of scenarios, we
   consider architectures in which the control and data planes are
   separated, as described in [I-D.ietf-dmm-deployment-models].

3.1.1.  Network-based DMM

   Figure 1 shows a general scenario for network-based distributed
   mobility management.

   The main characteristics of a network-based DMM solution are:

      There are multiple data plane anchors (i.e., DPA instances), each
      with an FM-DP function.
      The control plane may either be distributed (not shown in the
      figure) or centralized (as shown in the figure).
      The control plane and the data plane (Control Plane Anchor -- CPA
      -- and Data Plane Anchor -- DPA) may be co-located or not.  If the

Internet-Draft       distributed mobility anchoring            July 2018


      CPA is co-located with the distributed DPAs, then there are
      multiple co-located CPA-DPA instances (not shown in the figure).
      An IP prefix/address IP1 (anchored to the DPA with IP address
      IPa1) is assigned for use by an MN.  The MN uses this IP1 address
      to communicate with CNs (not shown in the figure).
      The location management (LM) function may be co-located or split
      (as shown in the figure) into a separate server (LMs) and a client
      (LMc).  In this case, the LMs may be centralized whereas the LMc
      may be distributed or centralized.

4.  IP Mobility Handling in Distributed Anchoring Environments -
    Mobility Support Only When Needed

   IP mobility support may be provided only when needed instead of being
   provided by default.

   A straightforward choice of mobility anchoring is the following: the
   MN's choses as source IP address of packets belonging to an IP flow,
   an address allocated by the network the MN is attached to when the
   flow was initiated.  As such, traffic belonging to this flow
   traverses the MN's mobility anchor [I-D.seite-dmm-dma]
   [I-D.bernardos-dmm-pmipv6-dlif].

   The IP prefix/address at the MN's side of a flow may be anchored at
   the access router to which the MN is attached.  For example, when an
   MN attaches to a network (Net1) or moves to a new network (Net2), an
   IP prefix from the attached network is assigned to the MN's
   interface.  In addition to configuring new link-local addresses, the
   MN configures from this prefix an IP address which is typically a
   dynamic IP address.  It then uses this IP address when a flow is
   initiated.  Packets to the MN in this flow are simply forwarded
   according to the forwarding table.

Internet-Draft       distributed mobility anchoring            July 2018


   There may be multiple IP prefixes/addresses that an MN can select
   when initiating a flow.  They may be from the same access network or
   different access networks.  The network may advertise these prefixes
   with cost options [I-D.mccann-dmm-prefixcost] so that the mobile node
   may choose the one with the least cost.  In addition, these IP
   prefixes/addresses may be of different types regarding whether
   mobility support is needed [I-D.ietf-dmm-ondemand-mobility].  A flow
   will need to choose the appropriate one according to whether it needs
   IP mobility support.

4.1.  No Need of IP Mobility: Changing to New IP Prefix/Address

   When IP mobility support is not needed for a flow, the LM and FM
   functions are not utilized so that the configurations in Section 3.1
   are simplified as shown in Figure 3.

               Figure 3: Changing to a new IP address/prefix

   When there is no need to provide IP mobility to a flow, the flow may
   use a new IP address acquired from a new network as the MN moves to
   the new network.

   Regardless of whether IP mobility is needed, if the flow has
   terminated before the MN moves to a new network, the flow may
   subsequently restart using the new IP address assigned from the new
   network.

   When IP session continuity is needed, even if a flow is ongoing as
   the MN moves, it may still be desirable for the flow to change to
   using the new IP prefix configured in the new network.  The flow may
   then close and then restart using a new IP address configured in the
   new network.  Such a change in the IP address of the flow may be

   enabled using a higher layer mobility support which is not in the
   scope of this document.

   In Figure 3, a flow initiated while the MN was using the IP prefix
   IP1 anchored to a previous access router AR1 in network Net1 has
   terminated before the MN moves to a new network Net2.  After moving
   to Net2, the MN uses the new IP prefix IP2 anchored to a new access
   router AR2 in network Net2 to start a new flow.  The packets may then
   be forwarded without requiring IP layer mobility support.

   An example call flow is outlined in Figure 4

4.2.  Need of IP Mobility

   When IP mobility is needed for a flow, the LM and FM functions in
   Section 3.1 are utilized.  There are two possible cases: (i) the
   initial anchor remains the anchor and forwards traffic to a new
   locator in the new network, and (ii) the mobility anchor (data plane
   function) is changed but binds the MN's transferred IP address/
   prefix.  The latter enable optimized routes but requires some data
   plane node that enforces rules for traffic indirection.

Internet-Draft       distributed mobility anchoring            July 2018


   The first case identified above (mobility support provided by IP
   prefix anchor switching to the new network) can be performed as
   described in Section 5 or by using other mobility management methods
   ([Paper-Distributed.Mobility], [Paper-Distributed.Mobility.PMIP] and
   [Paper-Distributed.Mobility.Review]).  Then the flow may continue to
   use the IP prefix from the prior network of attachment.  Yet some
   time later, the user application for the flow may be closed.  If the
   application is started again, the new flow may not need to use the
   prior network's IP address to avoid having to invoke IP mobility
   support.  This may be the case where a dynamic IP prefix/address
   rather than a permanent one is used.  The flow may then use the new
   IP prefix in the network where the flow is being initiated.  Routing
   is again kept simpler without employing IP mobility and will remain
   so as long as the MN which is now in the new network has not moved
   again and left to another new network.

   An example call flow in this case is outlined in Figure 5.  In this
   example, the AR1 plays the role of FM-DP entity and redirects the
   traffic (e.g., using an IP tunnel) to AR2.  Another solution could be
   to place an FM-DP entity closer to the CN network to perform traffic
   steering to deviate from default routes (which will bring the packet
   to AR1 per default routing).

   Figure 5: A flow continues to use the IP prefix from its home network
                    after MN has moved to a new network

   Multiple instances of DPAs (at access routers), which are providing
   IP prefix to the MNs, are needed to provide distributed mobility
   anchoring in an appropriate configuration such as those described in
   Figure 1 (Section 3.1.1) for network-based distributed mobility or in
   Figure 2 (Section 3.1.2) for client-based distributed mobility.

5.  IP Mobility Handling in Distributed Mobility Anchoring Environments
    - Anchor Switching to the New Network

   IP mobility is invoked to enable IP session continuity for an ongoing
   flow as the MN moves to a new network.  Here the anchoring of the IP
   address of the flow is in the home network of the flow, which is not
   in the current network of attachment.  A centralized mobility
   management mechanism may employ indirection from the anchor in the

   home network to the current network of attachment.  Yet it may be
   difficult to avoid unnecessarily long route when the route between
   the MN and the CN via the anchor in the home network is significantly
   longer than the direct route between them.  An alternative is to
   switch the IP prefix/address anchoring to the new network.

5.1.  IP Prefix/Address Anchor Switching for Flat Network

   The IP prefix/address anchoring may move without changing the IP
   prefix/address of the flow.  Here the LM and FM functions in Figure 1
   in Section 3.1 are implemented as shown in Figure 6.

                         Figure 6: Anchor mobility

   As an MN with an ongoing session moves to a new network, the flow may
   preserve IP session continuity by moving the anchoring of the
   original IP prefix/address of the flow to the new network.

   One way to accomplish such move is to use a centralized routing
   protocol, but note that this solution presents some scalability
   concerns and its applicability is typically limited to small
   networks.

6.  Security Considerations

   Security protocols and mechanisms are employed to secure the network
   and to make continuous security improvements, and a DMM solution is
   required to support them [RFC7333].

   Alexandre Petrescu and Fred L.  Templin had contributed to earlier
   versions of this document regarding distributed anchoring for
   hierarchical network and for network mobility, although these
   extensions were removed to keep the document within reasonable
   length.

   This document has benefited from other work on mobility support in
   SDN network, on providing mobility support only when needed, and on
   mobility support in enterprise network.  These works have been
   referenced.  While some of these authors have taken the work to
   jointly write this document, others have contributed at least
   indirectly by writing these drafts.  The latter include Philippe
   Bertin, Dapeng Liu, Satoru Matushima, Pierrick Seite, Jouni Korhonen,
   and Sri Gundavelli.

   Valuable comments have been received from John Kaippallimalil,
   ChunShan Xiong, and Dapeng Liu. Dirk von Hugo, Byju Pularikkal,
   Pierrick Seite have generously provided careful review with helpful
   corrections and suggestions.  Marco Liebsch also performed a very
   detailed and helpful review of this document.
