Expires December 3, 2007 [Page 2] Internet-Draft DHCP Opt for Home Info Discovery in MIPv6 Jun 2007 1. Introduction Before a mobile node can engage in Mobile IPv6 signaling with a home agent, it should either know the IP address of the home agent via pre-configuration, or dynamically discover it. Mobile IPv6 specification [6] describes how home agents can be dynamically discovered by mobile nodes that know the home subnet prefix. This scheme does not work when prefix information is not already available to the mobile node. This problem can be solved by delivering one or more home subnet prefix information to the mobile node by means of DHCP. Subsequently, the mobile node can engage in dynamic home agent discovery using the prefix information. In addition to delivering the prefix information, DHCP can also be used to provide the IP addresses or FQDNs of the home agents that are available to the mobile node and the home address that the mobile node can use to register with the home agent. The solution involves defining new DHCP options to carry home subnet prefix, home agent IP address and home agent's FQDN information. As part of configuring the initial TCP/IP parameters, a mobile node can obtain home network information for the subnet it is directly attached to, other subnets in the visited domain, or a subnet from its home domain. A mobile node can convey the target home subnet's identity in order to receive corresponding information. For example the mobile node can provide realm portion of its user NAI (Network Access Identifier) and expect that a home network information from its home domain is returned. The availability of the requested information depends on the DHCP server having prior knowledge or dynamically discovering it. While the specific details are outside the scope of this document, use of static tables and AAA-assisted discovery are possible options [11]. The mobile node may or may not be connected to the "home" subnet when it attempts to learn Mobile IPv6 home network information. This allows operators to centrally deploy home agents while being able to bootstrap mobile nodes that are already roaming. This scenario also occurs when HMIPv6 [10] is used, where the mobile node is required to discover the MAP (a special home agent) that is located multiple hops away from the mobile node's attachment point.

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 RFC2119 [2]. General mobility terminology can be found in RFC3753 [5]. The following additional terms, as defined in RFC4640 [9], are used in this document: Access Service Provider (ASP): A network operator that provides direct IP packet forwarding to and from the mobile node. Mobility Service Provider (MSP): A service provider that provides Mobile IPv6 service. In order to obtain such service, the mobile node must be authenticated and authorized to obtain the Mobile IPv6 service. Jang, et al.

DHCP options for HA Dynamic Discovery This section introduces new DHCP options used for dynamic home information discovery in Mobile IPv6. The drafts [11] and [12] describe the whole interworking procedure for Home Agent assignment among MN, NAS, DHCP, and AAA entities for bootstrapping procedure in the integrated scenario. 3.1. Home Network Identifier Option This option is used to carry the identifier of the target home network. The mobile node MUST include this option along with its Option Request option in its request. 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | OPTION_MIP6-HNID | option-len | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | id-type | reserved | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ + . . .

The value MUST be initialized to 0 by the sender and MUST be ignored by the receiver. Jang, et al. Expires December 3, 2007 [Page 5] Internet-Draft DHCP Opt for Home Info Discovery in MIPv6 Jun 2007 Home Network Identifier The identifier to specify the requested home network of the mobile node. This field MUST be set in the form of user's NAI [3] when the id-type is 1. The id-type 0 indicates the mobile node is interested in learning the home network information that pertains to the currently visited network. This type can be used to discover local home agents in the local ASP. In this case, the Home Network Identifier field SHOULD be set to 0. The id-type 1 indicates the mobile node is interested in learning the home network information that pertains to the given realm. This type can be used to discover home agents that are hosted by a user's home domain or target MSP (as indicated by his/her NAI-based username -- user@HomeRealm). The Home Network Identifier field can be a home MSP or a MSP which has trust roaming relationship with the mobile node's home MSP. If the mobile node has no preference, the id-type is set to 2 and the Home Network Identifier SHOULD be initialized to 0. In this case, the assignment of the home network information is within the server's own discretion. For the detailed processing, refer to section 4. 3.2. MIP6 Relay Agent Option This option carries the RADIUS or Diameter attributes that are received at the NAS from the AAAH.

Expires December 3, 2007 [Page 11] Internet-Draft DHCP Opt for Home Info Discovery in MIPv6 Jun 2007 4. Option Usage The requesting and sending of the proposed DHCP options follow the rules for DHCP options in [4]. The following DHCP options [4] are also required in the solution for normal DHCP operation: - Option Request option - Client Identifier option - Relay Message option - Interface-Id option 4.1. Mobile Node Behavior In order to acquire the home network information, the mobile node SHALL send an Information Request to the All_DHCP_Relay_Agents_and_Servers multicast address. In this message the mobile node (DHCP client) SHALL include the Option Code for Home Network Identifier option in the OPTION_ORO. The mobile node SHALL also include the OPTION_CLIENTID [4] to identify itself to the DHCP server. During requesting the information, the mobile node MUST clarify the preference about the requested home network with the id-type in the Home Network Identifier option. Even if the mobile node does not care about the location of the home network where the home agent to be assigned, it MUST clarify the fact by setting the id-type to 2. In this case the Home Network Identifier SHOULD be set to 0. The mobile node can request more than one home information by using multiple Home Network Identifier options in the request. For instance, if the mobile node wants to retrieve home network information from both the visited network (ASP) and the home network with a single transaction, it can request the information by using two Home Network Identifier options with the id-type 0 and the id- type 1. It can also request the home information for more than one target MSPs at the same time by including multiple Home Network Identifier options with id-type 1. When the mobile node receives the Reply message from the DHCP server and gets more than one home agent address(es), it MUST have a selection mechanism to determine which one to use for establishing a Mobile IPv6 session. For example, if the mobile node acquires both IPv6 address and FQDN of the home agent, it may try to use the address information of the home agent first. Jang, et al. Expires December 3, 2007 [Page 12] Internet-Draft DHCP Opt for Home Info Discovery in MIPv6 Jun 2007 If a Home Network Information option carries sub-option whose 'V' flag does not match the id-type, the mobile node SHOULD skip that sub-option. When the mobile node requests the home network information with the id-type 0 or 1 but cannot be provided with the proper information, that is, option-len = 0 in the Home Network Information option, then it may request again by setting the id-type to 2 in the Home Network Identifier option. 4.2. NAS/DHCP Relay Agent Behavior The NAS and the DHCP relay agent are assumed to be collocated in this solution. The NAS communicates with the mobile node during the network access authentication and interacts with the AAAH (via the AAAV) using either Diameter NASREQ RFC4005 [7] or RADIUS [11] [Editor's note: The Diameter AVPs need to be defined]. Upon receiving the MIP6 related RADIUS or Diameter attributes returned by the AAAH, the NAS passes the information to the collocated DHCP relay agent. Upon receiving the Information Request from the mobile node, the DHCP relay agent MUST forward the message to the DHCP server as per [4]. The relay agent SHALL use the OPTION_CLIENTID to identify the mobile node (user). This is required to check whether there are some additional information for the user that need to be appended while relaying the information request message to the DHCP server. If the relay agent determines that the NAS has passed home network information for this mobile node, the relay agent MUST include the received home network information in the MIP6 Relay Agent option, and attach this option in the Relay-Forward message. The relay agent MAY include the Interface-Id option [4] in the Relay-Forward message. The sub-options that carry home information for the same home agent should be listed in sequential order of a sub-opt-code in the MIP6 Relay Agent option so as to indicate the coupling among home network information for the same home agent. For example, the sub-options for HA1 and HA2 are listed as follows. sub-opt-code = 1 (HA1's IPv6 address) sub-opt-code = 2 (HA1's FQDN) sub-opt-code = 0 (Home subnet prefix under HA2) sub-opt-code = 1 (HA2's IPv6 address) Jang, et al. Expires December 3, 2007 [Page 13] Internet-Draft DHCP Opt for Home Info Discovery in MIPv6 Jun 2007 sub-opt-code = 2 (HA2's FQDN) Upon receiving the Reply message from the DHCPv6 server, the relay agent SHALL follow the guidelines defined in [4] to forward the message to the mobile node. 4.3. DHCP Server Behavior The DHCP server MUST follow the following logic to process an Information Request from the mobile node. Information Request message includes: A. OPTION_ORO and Home Network Identifier option with the id-type 0, Interface-Id option, Client Identifier option, MIP6 Relay Agent option. If the DHCP server is configured with the local home information, it MUST include the corresponding information in the Home Network Information option of the Reply message, and set all of the V flag(s) in its sub-option(s) to 1(s). The information may have been configured statically in the server. B. OPTION_ORO and Home Network Identifier option with the id-type 1, Interface-Id option, Client Identifier option, MIP6 Relay Agent option. If the received Home Network Identifier option does not carry any target MSP, the option MUST be skipped. If the DHCP server has the corresponding information for the target MSP, it MUST include the corresponding information in the Home Network Information option, and set all of the V flag(s) in its sub- option(s) to 0(s). The server may provide the matching information extracted from the MIP6 Relay Agent option. C. OPTION_ORO and Home Network Identifier option with the id-type 2, Interface-Id option, Client Identifier option, MIP6 Relay Agent option. In this case, the assignment of the home information relies on the server's local policy, and the DHCP server SHOULD have its own policy so that it can reply with the proper information in the Home Network Information option. The policy can be determined based on several factors such as the home agent availability and the authorization information of the mobile node. However, the specific policy setting is not in the scope of this document. The V flag(s) is/are set to 0(s) or 1(s) according to the type of provided home network Jang, et al. Expires December 3, 2007 [Page 14] Internet-Draft DHCP Opt for Home Info Discovery in MIPv6 Jun 2007 information. The server SHOULD provide all of the matching home information in Home Network Information option(s). When the server has more than one home network information to provide for a single Home Network Identifier option, it SHOULD include each of them in Home Network Information sub-options and include these sub-options in a single Home Network Information option. The sub-options for the same home agent SHOULD be listed in sequential order of a sub-opt-code in the Home Network Information option as described in section 4.2. In case of the id-type 0 and 1, the V flags in all sub-options in a Home Network Information option SHOULD be set to 1s and 0s respectively. If the request message carries more than one Home Network Identifier options, the reply message MUST contain Home Network Information options as many as Home Network Identifier options in the reply. Though the server cannot find any home information for a specific id- type, it MUST return the Home Network Information option by setting the id-type to the specific id-type and the option-len to 0. The Home Network Information options in the reply SHOULD appear in the same order as Home Network Identifier options in the request and the matching is based on the sequential order of options. This provides a way of matching for Home Network Information options with the same id-type. In all Reply messages, the DHCP server MUST return the Interface-Id option as received in the Information Request. The DHCP server SHOULD use the Client Identifier option to identify the mobile node. It is assumed that a DHCP server has some mechanism to know or retrieve the requested Mobile IPv6 information. For instance, as described in [11], the NAS can learn the information via RADIUS during network access authentication, and NAS-collocated DHCP relay can transfer it to the DHCP server by the proposed DHCP option in this document. The DHCP server may gather the home network information in other ways, but the specifics of these mechanisms are outside the scope of this document. Jang, et al.

Security Considerations Secure delivery of home agent, home address, and home link information from a DHCP server to the mobile node (DHCP client) relies on the overall DHCP security. The particular option defined in this draft does not have additional impact on the DHCP security. Aside from the DHCP client to server interaction, an operator must also ensure secure delivery of mobile IP information to the DHCP server. This is outside the scope of DHCP and the newly defined option. Jang, et al. Expires December 3, 2007 [Page 16] Internet-Draft DHCP Opt for Home Info Discovery in MIPv6 Jun 2007 6.

An appropriate request will be made to IANA if this Internet draft gets accepted as an RFC. Jang, et al.
