Yokota KDDI Lab J. Korhonen Nokia Siemens Networks June 5, 2013 Requirements for Distributed Mobility Management draft-ietf-dmm-requirements-05 Abstract This document defines the requirements for Distributed Mobility Management (DMM) in IPv6 deployments. The hierarchical structure in traditional wireless networks has led to deployment models which are in practice centralized. Mobility management with logically centralized mobility anchoring in current mobile networks is prone to suboptimal routing and raises scalability issues. Such centralized functions can lead to single points of failure and inevitably introduce longer delays and higher signaling loads for network operations related to mobility management. The objective is to enhance mobility management in order to meet the primary goals in network evolution, i.e., improve scalability, avoid single points of failure, enable transparent mobility support to upper layers only when needed, and so on. Distributed mobility management must be secure and may co-exist with existing network deployments and end hosts.

Expires December 7, 2013 [Page 3] Internet-Draft DMM-Reqs June 2013 1. Introduction In the past decade a fair number of mobility protocols have been standardized [RFC6275] [RFC5944] [RFC5380] [RFC6301] [RFC5213]. Although the protocols differ in terms of functions and associated message formats, we can identify a few key common features: o a centralized mobility anchor providing global reachability and an always-on experience to the user; o extensions to the base protocols to optimize handover performance while users roam across wireless cells; and o extensions to enable the use of heterogeneous wireless interfaces for multi-mode terminals (e.g. smartphones). The presence of the centralized mobility anchor allows a mobile node to remain reachable after it has moved to a different network. The anchor point, among other tasks, ensures connectivity by forwarding packets destined to, or sent from, the mobile node. In practice, most of the deployed architectures today have a small number of centralized anchors managing the traffic of millions of mobile nodes. Compared with a distributed approach, a centralized approach is likely to have several issues or limitations affecting performance and scalability, which require costly network engineering to resolve. To optimize handovers from the perspective of mobile nodes, the base protocols have been extended to efficiently handle packet forwarding between the previous and new points of attachment. These extensions are necessary when applications have stringent requirements in terms of delay. Notions of localization and distribution of local agents have been introduced to reduce signaling overhead at the centralized routing anchor point [Paper-Distributed.Centralized.Mobility]. Unfortunately, today we witness difficulties in getting such protocols deployed, resulting in sub-optimal choices for the network operators. Moreover, the availability of multiple-interface host and the possibility of using several network interfaces simultaneously have motivated the development of even more protocol extensions to add more capabilities to the mobility management protocol. In the end, deployment is further complicated with the multitude of extensions. As an effective transport method for multimedia data delivery, IP multicast support, including optimizations, have been introduced but by "patching-up" procedure after completing the design of reference mobility protocol, leading to network inefficiency and non-optimal routing. Chan (Ed.), et al. Expires December 7, 2013 [Page 4] Internet-Draft DMM-Reqs June 2013 Mobile users are, more than ever, consuming Internet content; such traffic imposes new requirements on mobile core networks for data traffic delivery. The presence of content providers closer to Internet Service Providers (ISP) network requires taking into account local Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) while providing mobility services. Moreover, when the traffic demand exceeds available capacity, service providers need to implement new strategies such as selective traffic offload (e.g. 3GPP work items LIPA/SIPTO [TS.23.401]) through alternative access networks (e.g. WLAN) [Paper- Mobile.Data.Offloading]. A gateway selection mechanism also takes the user proximity into account within EPC [TS.29303]. These mechanisms were not pursued in the past owing to charging and billing reasons. Assigning a gateway anchor node from a visited network in roaming scenario has until recently been done and are limited to voice services only. Charging and billing require solutions beyond the mobility protocol. Both traffic offloading and CDN mechanisms could benefit from the development of mobile architectures with fewer levels of routing hierarchy introduced into the data path by the mobility management system. This trend towards so-called "flat networks" works best for direct communications among peers in the same geographical area. Distributed mobility management in a truly flat mobile architecture would anchor the traffic closer to the point of attachment of the user. Today's mobile networks present service providers with new challenges. Mobility patterns indicate that mobile nodes often remain attached to the same point of attachment for considerable periods of time [Paper-Locating.User]. Specific IP mobility management support is not required for applications that launch and complete their sessions while the mobile node is connected to the same point of attachment. However, currently, IP mobility support is designed for always-on operation, maintaining all parameters of the context for each mobile subscriber for as long as they are connected to the network. This can result in a waste of resources and unnecessary costs for the service provider. Infrequent node mobility coupled with application intelligence suggest that mobility support could be provided selectively, thus reducing the amount of context maintained in the network. The distributed mobility management (DMM) charter addresses two complementary aspects of mobility management procedures: the distribution of mobility anchors towards a more flat network and the dynamic activation/deactivation of mobility protocol support as an enabler to distributed mobility management. The former aims at positioning mobility anchors (e.g., HA, LMA) closer to the user; ideally, mobility agents could be collocated with the first-hop Chan (Ed.), et al. Expires December 7, 2013 [Page 5] Internet-Draft DMM-Reqs June 2013 router. The latter, facilitated by the distribution of mobility anchors, aims at identifying when mobility support must be activated and identifying sessions that do not require mobility management support -- thus reducing the amount of state information that must be maintained in various mobility agents of the mobile network. The key idea is that dynamic mobility management relaxes some of the constraints of previously-standardized mobility management solutions and, by doing so, it can avoid the unnecessary establishment of mechanisms to forward traffic from an old to a new mobility anchor. This document compares distributed mobility management with centralized mobility management in Section 3. The problems that can be addressed with DMM are summarized in Section 4. The mandatory requirements as well as the optional requirements are given in Section 5. Finally, security considerations are discussed in Section 6. The problem statement and the use cases [I-D.yokota-dmm-scenario] can be found in [Paper-Distributed.Mobility.Review]. 2. Conventions used in this document 2.1. Terminology All the general mobility-related terms and their acronyms used in this document are to be interpreted as defined in the Mobile IPv6 base specification [RFC6275], in the Proxy mobile IPv6 specification [RFC5213], and in Mobility Related Terminology [RFC3753]. These terms include the following: mobile node (MN), correspondent node (CN), and home agent (HA) as per [RFC6275]; local mobility anchor (LMA) and mobile access gateway (MAG) as per [RFC5213], and context as per [RFC3753]. In addition, this draft introduces the following term. Mobility context is the collection of information required to provide mobility management support for a given mobile node. 3. Centralized versus distributed mobility management Mobility management functions may be implemented at different layers of the protocol stack. At the IP (network) layer, they may reside in the network or in the mobile node. In particular, a network-based solution resides in the network only. It therefore enables mobility Chan (Ed.), et al. Expires December 7, 2013 [Page 6] Internet-Draft DMM-Reqs June 2013 for existing hosts and network applications which are already in deployment but lack mobility support. At the IP layer, a mobility management protocol supporting session continuity is typically based on the principle of distinguishing between identifier and routing address and maintaining a mapping between the two. In Mobile IP, the home address serves as an identifier of the device whereas the care-of-address (CoA) takes the role of the routing address. The binding between these two is maintained at the home agent (mobility anchor). If packets can be continuously delivered to a mobile node at its home address, then all sessions using that home address are unaffected even though the routing address (CoA) changes. The next two subsections explain centralized and distributed mobility management functions in the network. 3.1. Centralized mobility management In centralized mobility management, the mapping information between the persistent node identifier and the locator IP address of a mobile node (MN) is kept at a single mobility anchor. At the same time, packets destined to the MN are routed via this anchor. In other words, such mobility management systems are centralized in both the control plane and the data plane (mobile node IP traffic). Many existing mobility management deployments make use of centralized mobility anchoring in a hierarchical network architecture, as shown in Figure 1. Examples of such centralized mobility anchors are the home agent (HA) and local mobility anchor (LMA) in Mobile IPv6 [RFC6275] and Proxy Mobile IPv6 [RFC5213], respectively. Current cellular networks such as the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) GPRS networks, CDMA networks, and 3GPP Evolved Packet System (EPS) networks employ centralized mobility management too. In particular, the Gateway GPRS Support Node (GGSN), Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN) and Radio Network Controller (RNC) in the 3GPP GPRS hierarchical network, and the Packet Data Network Gateway (P-GW) and Serving Gateway (S-GW) in the 3GPP EPS network all act as anchors in a hierarchy.

Distributed mobility management. Mobility management may be partially or fully distributed. In the former case only the data plane is distributed. Fully distributed mobility management implies that both the data plane and the control plane are distributed. Such concepts of data and control plane separation are not yet described in the IETF developed mobility protocols so far but are described in detail in [I-D.yokota-dmm- scenario]. While mobility management can be distributed, it is not necessary for other functions such as subscription management, Chan (Ed.), et al. Expires December 7, 2013 [Page 8] Internet-Draft DMM-Reqs June 2013 subscription database, and network access authentication to be similarly distributed. A distributed mobility management scheme for flat IP-based mobile network architecture consisting of access nodes is proposed in [Paper-Distributed.Dynamic.Mobility]. Its benefits over centralized mobility management are shown through simulations in [Paper- Distributed.Centralized.Mobility]. Moreover, the (re)use and extension of existing protocols in the design of both fully distributed mobility management [Paper-Migrating.Home.Agents] [Paper- Distributed.Mobility.SAE] and partially distributed mobility management [Paper-Distributed.Mobility.PMIP] [Paper- Distributed.Mobility.MIP] have been reported in the literature. Therefore, before designing new mobility management protocols for a future flat IP architecture, it is recommended to first consider whether existing mobility management protocols can be extended to serve a flat IP architecture. 4. Problem Statement The problems that can be addressed with DMM are summarized in the following: PS1: Non-optimal routes Routing via a centralized anchor often results in a longer route. The problem is manifested, for example, when accessing a local server or servers of a Content Delivery Network (CDN), or when receiving locally available IP multicast or sending IP multicast packets. PS2: Divergence from other evolutionary trends in network architectures such as distribution of content delivery. Centralized mobility management can become non-optimal with a flat network architecture. PS3: Low scalability of centralized tunnel management and mobility context maintenance Setting up tunnels through a central anchor and maintaining mobility context for each MN usually requires more concentrated resources in a centralized design, thus reducing scalability. Distributing the tunnel maintenance function and the mobility context maintenance function among different network entities with proper signaling protocol design can increase scalability. Chan (Ed.), et al. Expires December 7, 2013 [Page 9] Internet-Draft DMM-Reqs June 2013 PS4: Single point of failure and attack Centralized anchoring designs may be more vulnerable to single points of failures and attacks than a distributed system. The impact of a successful attack on a system with centralized mobility management can be far greater as well. PS5: Unnecessarily reserving resources to provide mobility support to nodes that do not need such support IP mobility support is not always required, and not every parameter of mobility context is always used. For example, some applications do not need a stable IP address during a handover to maintain session continuity. Sometimes, the entire application session runs while the terminal does not change the point of attachment. Besides, some sessions, e.g. SIP-based sessions, can handle mobility at the application layer and hence do not need IP mobility support; it is then more efficient to deactivate IP mobility support for such sessions. PS6: (Related problem) Mobility signaling overhead with peer-to-peer communication Wasting resources when mobility signaling (e.g., maintenance of the tunnel, keep alive signaling, etc.) is not turned off for peer-to-peer communication. Peer-to-peer communications have particular traffic patterns that often do not benefit from mobility support from the network. Thus, the associated mobility support signaling (e.g., maintenance of the tunnel, keep alive signaling, etc.) wastes network resources for no application gain. In such a case, it is better to enable mobility support selectively. PS7: (Related problem) Deployment with multiple mobility solutions There are already many variants and extensions of MIP. Deployment of new mobility management solutions can be challenging, and debugging difficult, when they must co-exist with solutions already in the field. PS8: Duplicate multicast traffic IP multicast distribution over architectures using IP mobility solutions (e.g. RFC6224) may lead to convergence of duplicated multicast subscriptions towards the downstream tunnel entity (e.g. MAG in PMIPv6). Concretely, when multicast subscription for individual mobile nodes is coupled with mobility tunnels (e.g. PMIPv6 tunnel), duplicate multicast subscription(s) is Chan (Ed.), et al. Expires December 7, 2013 [Page 10] Internet-Draft DMM-Reqs June 2013 prone to be received through different upstream paths. This problem may also exist or be more severe in a distributed mobility environment. 5. Requirements After comparing distributed mobility management against centralized deployment in Section 3, this section identifies the following requirements: 5.1. Distributed processing REQ1: Distributed processing IP mobility, network access and routing solutions provided by DMM MUST enable distributed processing for mobility management of some flows so that traffic does not need to traverse centrally deployed mobility anchors and thereby avoid non- optimal routes. Motivation: This requirement is motivated by current trends in network evolution: (a) it is cost- and resource-effective to cache and distribute content by combining distributed mobility anchors with caching systems (e.g., CDN); (b) the significantly larger number of mobile nodes and flows call for improved scalability; (c) single points of failure are avoided in a distributed system; (d) threats against centrally deployed anchors, e.g., home agent and local mobility anchor, are mitigated in a distributed system. This requirement addresses problems PS1, PS2, PS3, and PS4 in Section 4. (Existing route optimization is only a host-based solution. On the other hand, localized routing with PMIPv6 addresses only a part of the problem where both the MN and the CN are located in the PMIP domain and attached to a MAG, and is not applicable when the CN is outside the PMIP domain.) 5.2. Transparency to Upper Layers when needed REQ2: Transparency to Upper Layers when needed DMM solutions MUST provide transparent mobility support above the IP layer when needed. Such transparency is needed, for example, when, upon change of point of attachment to the network, an application flow cannot cope with a change in the IP address. However, it is not always necessary to maintain a stable home IP address or prefix for every application or at Chan (Ed.), et al. Expires December 7, 2013 [Page 11] Internet-Draft DMM-Reqs June 2013 all times for a mobile node. Motivation: The motivation of this requirement is to enable more efficient use of network resources and more efficient routing by not maintaining context at the mobility anchor when there is no such need. This requirement addresses the problem PS5 as well as the related problem PS6 in Section 4. 5.3. IPv6 deployment REQ3: IPv6 deployment DMM solutions SHOULD target IPv6 as the primary deployment environment and SHOULD NOT be tailored specifically to support IPv4, in particular in situations where private IPv4 addresses and/or NATs are used. Motivation: This requirement conforms to the general orientation of IETF work. DMM deployment is foreseen in mid- to long-term horizon, when IPv6 is expected to be far more common than today. This requirement avoids the unnecessarily complexity in solving the problems in Section 4 for IPv4, which will not be able to use some of the IPv6-specific features. 5.4. Existing mobility protocols REQ4: Existing mobility protocols A DMM solution SHOULD first consider reusing and extending IETF-standardized protocols before specifying new protocols. Motivation: Reuse of existing IETF work is more efficient and less error-prone. This requirement attempts to avoid the need of new protocols development and therefore their potential problems of being time- consuming and error-prone. 5.5. Co-existence Chan (Ed.), et al. Expires December 7, 2013 [Page 12] Internet-Draft DMM-Reqs June 2013 REQ5: Co-existence with deployed networks and hosts The DMM solution MUST be able to co-exist with existing network deployments and end hosts. For example, depending on the environment in which DMM is deployed, DMM solutions may need to be compatible with other deployed mobility protocols or may need to co-exist with a network or mobile hosts/routers that do not support DMM protocols. The mobile node may also move between different access networks, where some of them may support neither DMM nor another mobility protocol. Furthermore, a DMM solution SHOULD work across different networks, possibly operated as separate administrative domains, when allowed by the trust relationship between them. Motivation: (a) to preserve backwards compatibility so that existing networks and hosts are not affected and continue to function as usual, and (b) enable inter-domain operation if desired. This requirement addresses the following related problem PS7 in Section 4. 5.6. Security considerations REQ6: Security considerations DMM protocol solutions MUST consider security risks introduced by DMM into the network. Such considerations may include authentication and authorization mechanisms that allow a mobile host/router to use the mobility support provided by the DMM solution; measures against redirecting traffic to the wrong host when providing DMM support; signaling message protection for authentication, integrity and confidentiality. Motivation: Various attacks such as impersonation, denial of service, man-in-the-middle attacks, and so on, may become newly possible or easier to mount due to the introduction of DMM. Proof of possession of past and new IP addresses may be needed. Signaling messages can be subject to various attacks since they carry critical context information about a mobile node/ router. For instance, a malicious node can forge a number of signaling messages thus redirecting traffic from its legitimate path. Consequently, the specific node is under a denial of service attack, whereas other nodes do not receive their traffic. As signaling messages may travel over the Internet, end-to-end security between communicating hosts must Chan (Ed.), et al. Expires December 7, 2013 [Page 13] Internet-Draft DMM-Reqs June 2013 be required. This requirement addresses the problems of potentially insecure mobility management protocols which make deployment infeasible because platforms conforming to the protocols are at risk for data loss and numerous other dangers, including financial harm to the user. 5.7. Multicast REQ7: DMM SHOULD enable multicast solutions in flexible distribution scenario. This flexibility pertains to the preservation of IP multicast nature from the perspective of a mobility entity and transmission of multicast packets to/from various multicast- enabled entities. Therefore, this flexibility enables different IP multicast flows with respect to a mobile host to be managed (e.g., subscribed, received and/or transmitted) using multiple multicast-enabled endpoints. Motivation: to consider multicast early so that solutions can be developed to avoid network inefficiency issues in multicast traffic delivery. The multicast solution should therefore avoid restricting the management of all IP multicast traffic relative to a host through a dedicated interface on multicast- capable access routers. This requirement addresses the problems PS1 and PS8 in Section 4. 6. Security Considerations Distributed mobility management (DMM) requires two kinds of security considerations. The first consideration is on access network security required between the mobile host/router and the access network deploying DMM. It allows only a legitimate mobile host/ router to use DMM. The second consideration is on end-to-end security required between nodes that participate in the DMM protocol. It protects the DMM signaling messages. It is necessary to provide sufficient defense against possible security attacks, or to adopt existing security mechanisms and protocols to provide sufficient security protections. For instance, EAP-based authentication can be used for access network security, while IPsec can be used for end-to-end security. Chan (Ed.), et al.
