Introduction Wi-Fi has emerged as a trusted access technology for mobile service providers. It has become important to provide certain functions in Wi-Fi which are commonly supported in licensed-spectrum networks such as 3G and 4G networks. This draft specifies a few new EAP attributes for a Mobile Node (MN) to interact with the network to support some of these functions (see below). These new attributes serve as a trigger for network nodes to undertake the relevant mobility Valmikam & Koodli Expires January 22, 2015 [Page 2] Internet-Draft EAP Attributes for Wi-Fi - EPC Integration July 2014 operations. For instance, when the Mobile Node requests and the network agrees for a new IP session (i.e., a new Access Point Name or APN in 3GPP), the corresponding attribute (defined below) can act as a trigger for the Mobile Anchor Gateway (MAG) to initiate a new mobility session with the Local Mobility Anchor (LMA). This document refers to [RFC6459] for the basic definitions of mobile network terminology (such as APN) used here. The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) networks support many functions that are not commonly implemented in a Wi-Fi network. This document defines EAP attributes that enable the following functions in trusted Wi-Fi access networks using EAP-AKA' [RFC5448] and EAP-AKA [RFC4187]: o APN Selection o Multiple APN Connectivity o Wi-Fi to 3G/4G (UTRAN/EUTRAN) mobility Since the attributes defined here share the same IANA registry, the methods are applicable to EAP-AKA', EAP-AKA, EAP-SIM [RFC4186] and, with appropriate extensions, are possibly applicable for other EAP methods as well. In addition to the trusted Wi-Fi access networks, the attributes are applicable to any trusted "non-3GPP" access network that uses the EAP methods and provides connectivity to the mobile EPC, which provides connectivity for 3G, 4G, and other non- 3GPP access networks [EPC]. 1.1. APN Selection The 3GPP networks support the concept of an APN (Access Point Name). This is defined in [GPRS]. Each APN is an independent IP network with its own set of IP services. When the MN attaches to the network, it may select a specific APN to receive desired services. For example, to receive generic Internet services, a user device may select APN "Internet" and to receive IMS voice services, it may select APN "IMSvoice". In a Wi-Fi access scenario, an MN needs a way of sending the desired APN name to the network. This draft specifies a new attribute to propagate the APN information via EAP. 1.2. Multiple APN Connectivity As an extension of APN Selection, an MN may choose to connect to multiple IP networks simultaneously. 3GPP provides this feature via additional Packet Data Protocol (PDP) contexts or additional Packet Valmikam & Koodli Expires January 22, 2015 [Page 3] Internet-Draft EAP Attributes for Wi-Fi - EPC Integration July 2014 Data Network (PDN) connections, and defines the corresponding set of signaling procedures. In a trusted Wi-Fi network, an MN connects to the first APN via DHCPv4 or IPv6 Router Solicitation. This document specifies an attribute that indicates the MN's capability to support multiple APN connectivity. 1.3. Wi-Fi to E-UTRAN mobility When operating in a multi-access network, an MN may want to gracefully handover its IP attachment from one access network to another. For instance, an MN connected to a 3GPP E-UTRAN network may choose to move its connectivity to a trusted Wi-Fi network. Alternatively, the MN may choose to connect using both access technologies simultaneously, and maintain two independent IP attachments. To implement these scenarios, the MN needs a way to correlate the UTRAN/E-UTRAN session with the new Wi-Fi session. This draft specifies an attribute to propagate E-UTRAN session identification to the network via EAP. This helps the network to correlate the sessions between the two Radio Access Network technologies and thus helps the overall handover process. 2. Reference Architecture and 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]. 3. Protocol Overview 3.1. Brief Introduction to EAP EAP is defined as a generic protocol in [RFC3748]. EAP, combined with one of the payload protocols such as EAP-AKA' [RFC5448] can accomplish several things in a network: o Establish identity of the user (MN) to the network. o Authenticate the user during the first attach with the help of an authentication center that securely maintains the user credentials. This process is called EAP Authentication. o Re-authenticate the user periodically, but without the overhead of a round-trip to the authentication center. This process is called EAP Fast Re-Authentication. This draft makes use of the EAP Authentication procedure. The use of EAP Fast Re-Authentication procedure is for further study. Both the Valmikam & Koodli Expires January 22, 2015 [Page 4] Internet-Draft EAP Attributes for Wi-Fi - EPC Integration July 2014 EAP Authentication and EAP Fast Re-Authentication procedures are specified for trusted access network use in 3GPP. [TS-33.402] 3.2. IEEE 802.11 Authentication using EAP over 802.1X In a Wi-Fi network, EAP is carried over the IEEE 802.1X Authentication protocol. The IEEE 802.1X Authentication is a transparent, payload-unaware mechanism to carry the authentication messages between the MN and the Wi-Fi network elements. EAP, on the other hand, has multiple purposes. Apart from its core functions of communicating MN's credentials to the network and proving the MN's identity, it also allows the MN to send arbitrary information elements to help establish the MN's IP session in the network. The following figure shows an example end-to-end EAP flow in the context of an IEEE 802.11 Wi-Fi network. We first define the terminology: o MN: Mobile Node o WAP: Wi-Fi Access Point o WAC: Wi-Fi Access Controller. In a PMIPv6 [RFC5213] network, hosts the MAG functionality or is assumed to have a suitable interface to the MAG. In the following, we simply use "WAC" notation. The MAG functionality within the WAC (or within the Wi- Fi access network), or a suitable interface to the MAG is assumed for PMIPv6 deployments. o IPCN: IP Core Network. This includes the LMA function. It generically also includes the AAA server function. Valmikam & Koodli Expires January 22, 2015 [Page 5] Internet-Draft EAP Attributes for Wi-Fi - EPC Integration July 2014 MN WAP WAC IPCN (MAG) (LMA) 1)|<----------Beacon--------| | | 2)|<----------Probe-------->| | | | | | | | 802.11 Auth| (Open System) | | 3)|<----------------------->|<----------------------->| | | | | | | 802.11 | Association | | 4)|<----------------------->|<----------------------->| | | | | | | (802.1X) | (CAPWAP/802.1X) | | 5)|<----EAP Req/Identity----|<----EAP Req/Identity----| | | | | | 6)|----EAP Resp/Identity--->|----EAP Resp/Identity--->| | | | | | 7)|<-EAP Req/AKA-Challenge--|<-EAP Req/AKA-Challenge--| | | | | | 8)|-EAP Resp/AKA-Challenge->|-EAP Resp/AKA-Challenge->| | | | | | 9)|<-----EAP Success--------|<-----EAP Success--------| | | | | | 10)|<====== 802.11 Data ====>|<=== CAPWAP(802.3 Data)=>|<=Tunnel to=>| | | | core network| | | | | Figure 1: Example EAP Deployment The figure shows separate Wi-Fi Access Point and Wi-Fi Access Controller, following the split-MAC model of CAPWAP [RFC5415]. A particular deployment may have the two functions within a single node. 1. An MN detects a beacon from a WAP in the vicinity. 2. The MN probes the WAP to determine suitability to attach (Verify SSID list, authentication type and so on). 3. The MN initiates the IEEE 802.11 Authentication with the Wi-Fi network. In WPA/WPA2 mode, this is an open authentication without any security credential verification. 4. The MN initiates 802.11 Association with the Wi-Fi network. 5. The Wi-Fi network initiates 802.1X/EAP Authentication procedures by sending EAP Request/Identity. 6. The MN responds with its permanent or temporary identity. Valmikam & Koodli Expires January 22, 2015 [Page 6] Internet-Draft EAP Attributes for Wi-Fi - EPC Integration July 2014 7. The Wi-Fi network challenges the MN to prove its identity by sending EAP Request/AKA-Challenge. 8. The MN calculates the security digest and responds with EAP Response/AKA-Challenge. 9. If the authentication is successful, the Wi-Fi network responds to the MN with EAP Success. 10. An end-to-End data path is available for the MN to start IP layer communication (DHCPv4, IPv6 Router Solicitation and so on). 4. New EAP Attributes The following sections define the new EAP attributes and their usage. 4.1. APN Selection In a Wi-Fi network, an MN includes the AT_VIRTUAL_NETWORK_ID attribute in the EAP-Response/AKA-Challenge to indicate the desired APN identity for the first PDN connection. If the MN does not include the AT_VIRTUAL_NETWORK_ID attribute in the EAP-Response/AKA-Challenge, the network may select an APN by other means. This selection mechanism is outside the scope of this document. An MN includes the AT_VIRTUAL_NETWORK_REQ attribute to indicate single or multiple PDN capability. In addition, a sub-type in the attribute indicates IPv4, IPv6, or dual IPv4v6 PDN connectivity. 4.2. Connectivity Type An MN indicates its preference for connectivity using the AT_CONNECTIVITY_TYPE attribute in the EAP-Response/AKA-Challenge message. The preference indicates whether the MN wishes connectivity to the Evolved Packet Core (the so-called "EPC PDN connectivity") or Internet Offload (termed as "Non-Seamless Wireless Offload"). The network makes its decision and replies with the same attribute in the EAP Success message. 4.3. Wi-Fi to UTRAN/E-UTRAN Mobility When a multi-access MN enters a Wi-Fi network, the following parameters are applicable in the EAP-Response/AKA-Challenge for IP session continuity from UTRAN/E-UTRAN. Valmikam & Koodli Expires January 22, 2015 [Page 7] Internet-Draft EAP Attributes for Wi-Fi - EPC Integration July 2014 o AT_HANDOVER_INDICATION: This attribute indicates to the network that the MN intends to continue the IP session from UTRAN/E-UTRAN. If a previous session can be located, network will honor this request by connecting the Wi-Fi access to the existing IP session. o AT_HANDOVER_SESSION_ID: An MN MAY use this attribute to identify the session on UTRAN/E-UTRAN. If used, this attribute contains P-TMSI (Packet Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity) if the previous session was on UTRAN or M-TMSI (Mobile Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity) if the previous session was on E-UTRAN. This attribute helps the network correlate the Wi-Fi session to an existing UTRAN/E-UTRAN session. 4.4. MN Serial ID The MN_SERIAL_ID attribute defines an MN's serial number, including International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) and International Mobile Equipment Identity Software Version (IMEISV). Other formats may be defined in the future. 5. Attribute Extensions The format for the new attributes follows that in [RFC4187]. Note that the Length field value is inclusive of the first two bytes. 5.1. AT_VIRTUAL_NETWORK_ID The AT_VIRTUAL_NETWORK_ID attribute identifies the virtual IP network that the MN intends to attach to. The implementation of the virtual network on the core network side is technology specific. For instance, in a 3GPP network, the virtual network is implemented based on the 3GPP APN primitive. This attribute SHOULD be included in the EAP-Response/AKA-Challenge message. 0 1 2 3 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |AT_VIRTUAL | Length | Virtual Network Id | | _NETWORK_ID | | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Virtual Network Id | | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Figure 2: AT_VIRTUAL_NETWORK_ID EAP Attribute Valmikam & Koodli Expires January 22, 2015 [Page 8] Internet-Draft EAP Attributes for Wi-Fi - EPC Integration July 2014 Virtual Network Id: An arbitrary octet string that identifies a virtual network in the access technology MN is attaching to. For instance, in 3GPP E-UTRAN, this could be an APN. See [TS-23.003] for encoding of the field. 5.2. AT_VIRTUAL_NETWORK_REQ When an MN intends to connect an APN, it SHOULD use this attribute to indicate different capabilities to the network. In turn, the network provides what is supported. From the MN, this attribute can be included only in EAP-Response/ Identity. From the network, it SHOULD be included in the EAP Request/AKA-Challenge message. In the MN-to-network direction, the Type field (below) indicates the MN's request. In the network-to-MN direction, the Type field indicates network's willingness to support the request; a present Type value field indicates the network support for that Type. 0 1 2 3 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |AT_VIRTUAL_ | Length | Virt-Net-Req | Virt-Net-Req | |NETWORK_REQ | | Type | Sub-type | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Figure 3: AT_VIRTUAL_NETWORK_REQ EAP Attribute Virt-Net-Req Type: Type can have one of the following values: o TBA IANA: Reserved o TBA IANA: Single PDN connection o TBA IANA : Multiple PDN connection.

AT_CONNECTIVITY_TYPE An MN uses this attribute to indicate whether it wishes the connectivity type to be Non-Seamless WLAN Offload or EPC. This attribute is applicable for multiple PDN connections only. From the MN, this attribute can be included only in EAP-Response/ Identity. From the network, it SHOULD be included in the EAP Request/AKA-Challenge message. 0 1 2 3 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |AT_CONNECTIVITY| Length | Connectivity | Reserved | |_TYPE | | Type | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Figure 4: AT_CONNECTIVITY_TYPE EAP Attribute Connectivity Type: Connectivity Type can have one of the following values: o TBA IANA : Reserved o TBA IANA : Non-Seamless WLAN Offload (NSWO) o TBA IANA : EPC PDN connectivity 5.4.

In this case, no Session Id (Section 5.5) is included. o 1 - the MN intends to handover an existing IP session. In this case, MN MAY include a Session Id (Section 5.5) to correlate this Wi-Fi session with a UTRAN/E-UTRAN session. 5.5. AT_HANDOVER_SESSION_ID When an MN intends to handover an earlier IP session to the current access network, it may propagate a session identity that can help identify the previous session from UTRAN/E-UTRAN that the MN intends to handover. This attribute is defined as a generic octet string. The MN MAY include an E-UTRAN GUTI if the previous session was an E-UTRAN session. If the previous session was a UTRAN session, the MN MAY include UTRAN Global RNC ID (MCC, MNC, RNC Id) and P-TMSI concatenated as an octet string.

The actual value is device-specific. See [TS-23.003] for encoding of the field. 6. Security Considerations This document defines new EAP attributes to extend the capability of the EAP-AKA protocol as specified in Section 8.2 of [RFC4187]. The attributes are passed between an MN and a AAA server. The document does not specify any new messages or options to the EAP-AKA protocol. The attributes defined here are fields which are used in existing trusted 3G and 4G networks, where they are exchanged (in protocols specific to 3G and 4G networks) subsequent to the mobile network authentication (e.g., using the UMTS-AKA mechanism). The same model is followed here with the EAP-AKA (or EAP-AKA', EAP-SIM) authentication; the AT_VIRTUAL_NETWORK_ID, AT_HANDOVER_INDICATION, AT_HANDOVER_SESSION_ID, AT_MN_SERIAL-ID attributes MUST be processed only after a successful EAP authentication. In doing so, these attribute processing, security-wise, is no worse than that in existing 3G and 4G mobile networks. Furthermore, RFC 4187 requires attributes exchanged in EAP-Request/ AKA-Identity or EAP-Response/AKA-Identity to be integrity-protected with AT_CHECKCODE; see Section 8.2 in [RFC4187]. This requirement applies for the AT_CONNECTIVITY_TYPE and AT_VIRTUAL_NETWORK_REQ attributes defined in this document. 7. IANA Considerations This document defines the following new skippable EAP-AKA attributes. These attributes need assignments from the "EAP-AKA and EAP-SIM Parameters" registry at https://www.iana.org/assignments/eapsimaka- numbers/eapsimaka-numbers.xhtml o AT_VIRTUAL_NETWORK_ID (Section 5.1) - TBA by IANA o AT_VIRTUAL_NETWORK_REQ (Section 5.2) - TBA by IANA o AT_CONNECTIVITY_TYPE (Section 5.3) - TBA IANA o AT_HANDOVER_INDICATION (Section 5.4) - TBA by IANA o AT_HANDOVER_SESSION_ID (Section 5.5) - TBA by IANA o AT_MN_SERIAL_ID (Section 5.6) - TBA by IANA Valmikam & Koodli Expires January 22, 2015 [Page 13] Internet-Draft EAP Attributes for Wi-Fi - EPC Integration July 2014 This document requests a new IANA registry "Trusted non-3GPP Access EAP Parameters", and requests assignments for the following fields: o Virt-Net-Req Type (Section 5.2) - TBA by IANA o Virt-Net-Req Sub type (Section 5.2) - TBA by IANA o Connectivity Type (Section 5.3) - TBA IANA o Access Technology (Section 5.5) - TBA by IANA o Serial ID Type (Section 5.6) - TBA by IANA 8.
