Final Charter for Working Group
Capture the AAA requirements needed for bootstrapping and
deployment, and work with the Radext and DiME WGs on the solutions.
A Solution for MIP6 session continuity for dual stack hosts which
attach to IPv4 access networks. Additionally provide a mechanism
for carrying IPv4 packets via the Home agent for MIP6 capable
dual-stack hosts. This work will be done in collaboration with the
NEMO WG.
A protocol based solution for enhancing the reliability of home
agents and a method to force a host to switch home agents.
A mechanism to force an MN to switch the HA that is currently
serving it. This is required in deployments where the HA may need
to be taken offline for maintenance.
Work on solutions to deal with firewalls and the problems that
firewalls cause as identified in RFC 4487.
Work items related to informational documentation include:
-
Produce a problem statement relating to location privacy and the
use of Mobile IPv6. Work with the IRTF MOBOPTS RG on developing the
solution. -
Produce a design rationale that documents the historical
thinking behind the introduction of an alternative security
mechanism, the Authentication Protocol (RFC 4285).
It should be noted that some of the features that are directly related
to Mobile IPv6 are being worked on in the MONAMI6, MIPSHOP, and NEMO
working groups. The specific extensions from these groups are out of
scope for the MIP6 working group. In particular, all optimizations are
out of scope. However, MIP6 may assist these groups when they use
features listed above and have requirements on them.
