Abstract

摘要

Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) defines a new Mobility header that is used by mobile nodes, correspondent nodes, and home agents in all messaging related to the creation and management of bindings. Mobile IPv6 nodes need the capability to identify themselves using an identity other than the default home IP address. Some examples of identifiers include Network Access Identifier (NAI), Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN), International Mobile Station Identifier (IMSI), and Mobile Subscriber Number (MSISDN). This document defines a new mobility option that can be used by Mobile IPv6 entities to identify themselves in messages containing a mobility header.

移动IPv6(MIPv6)定义了一个新的移动报头,移动节点、对应节点和归属代理在与绑定的创建和管理相关的所有消息传递中使用该报头。移动IPv6节点需要能够使用默认家庭IP地址以外的身份来识别自己。标识符的一些示例包括网络访问标识符(NAI)、完全限定域名(FQDN)、国际移动站标识符(IMSI)和移动用户号码(MSISDN)。本文档定义了一个新的移动选项,移动IPv6实体可以使用该选项在包含移动报头的消息中标识自己。

1. Introduction
1. 介绍

The base specification of Mobile IPv6 [RFC3775] identifies mobility entities using an IPv6 address. It is essential to have a mechanism wherein mobility entities can be identified using other identifiers (for example, a Network Access Identifier (NAI) [RFC4282], International Mobile Station Identifier (IMSI), or an application/ deployment specific opaque identifier).

移动IPv6的基本规范[RFC3775]使用IPv6地址标识移动实体。必须具有一种机制,其中可以使用其他标识符(例如,网络接入标识符(NAI)[RFC4282]、国际移动站标识符(IMSI)或特定于应用/部署的不透明标识符)来识别移动实体。

The capability to identify a mobility entity via identifiers other than the IPv6 address can be leveraged for performing various functions, for example,

通过IPv6地址以外的标识符识别移动实体的能力可用于执行各种功能,例如,

o authentication and authorization using an existing AAA (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting) infrastructure or via an HLR/AuC (Home Location Register/Authentication Center)

o 使用现有AAA(身份验证、授权和记帐)基础设施或通过HLR/AuC(归属位置注册/身份验证中心)进行身份验证和授权

o dynamic allocation of a mobility anchor point

o 机动性锚点的动态分配

o dynamic allocation of a home address

o 家庭地址的动态分配

This document defines an option with a subtype number that denotes a specific type of identifier. One instance of subtype, the NAI, is defined in Section 3.1. It is anticipated that other identifiers will be defined for use in the mobility header in the future.

本文档定义了一个带有子类型号的选项,该子类型号表示特定类型的标识符。第3.1节定义了子类型的一个实例NAI。预计将定义其他标识符以供将来在移动报头中使用。

This option SHOULD be used when Internet Key Exchange (IKE)/IPsec is not used for protecting binding updates or binding acknowledgements as specified in [RFC3775]. It is typically used with the authentication option [RFC4285]. But this option may be used independently. For example, the identifier can provide accounting and billing services.

当Internet密钥交换(IKE)/IPsec未用于保护[RFC3775]中指定的绑定更新或绑定确认时,应使用此选项。它通常与身份验证选项[RFC4285]一起使用。但此选项可以单独使用。例如,标识符可以提供记帐和计费服务。

2. Terminology
2. 术语

The keywords "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].

本文件中的关键词“必须”、“不得”、“必需”、“应”、“不得”、“应”、“不应”、“建议”、“可”和“可选”应按照[RFC2119]中所述进行解释。

3. Mobile Node Identifier Option
3. 移动节点标识符选项

The Mobile Node Identifier option is a new optional data field that is carried in the Mobile IPv6-defined messages that includes the Mobility header. Various forms of identifiers can be used to identify a Mobile Node (MN). Two examples are a Network Access Identifier (NAI) [RFC4282] and an opaque identifier applicable to a particular application. The Subtype field in the option defines the specific type of identifier.

“移动节点标识符”选项是一个新的可选数据字段,它包含在移动IPv6定义的消息中,该消息包括移动报头。可以使用各种形式的标识符来识别移动节点(MN)。两个示例是网络访问标识符(NAI)[RFC4282]和适用于特定应用的不透明标识符。选项中的子类型字段定义标识符的特定类型。

This option can be used in mobility messages containing a mobility header. The subtype field in the option is used to interpret the specific type of identifier.

此选项可用于包含移动头的移动消息中。选项中的子类型字段用于解释特定类型的标识符。

3.1. MN-NAI Mobility Option
3.1. MN-NAI移动选项

The MN-NAI mobility option uses the general format of the Mobile Node Identifier option as defined in Section 3. This option uses the subtype value of 1. The MN-NAI mobility option is used to identify the mobile node.

MN-NAI移动选项使用第3节中定义的移动节点标识符选项的通用格式。此选项使用子类型值1。MN-NAI移动选项用于识别移动节点。

The MN-NAI mobility option uses an identifier of the form user@realm [RFC4282]. This option MUST be implemented by the entities implementing this specification.

MN-NAI移动选项使用表单的标识符user@realm[RFC4282]。此选项必须由实施本规范的实体实施。

3.2. Processing Considerations
3.2. 处理注意事项

The location of the MN Identifier option is as follows: When present, this option MUST appear before any authentication-related option in a message containing a Mobility header.

MN Identifier选项的位置如下:如果存在,则该选项必须出现在包含移动报头的消息中任何与身份验证相关的选项之前。

4. Security Considerations
4. 安全考虑
4.1. General Considerations
4.1. 一般考虑

Mobile IPv6 already contains one mechanism for identifying mobile nodes, the Home Address option [RFC3775]. As a result, the vulnerabilities of the new option defined in this document are similar to those that already exist for Mobile IPv6. In particular, the use of a permanent, stable identifier may compromise the privacy of the user, making it possible to track a particular device or user as it moves through different locations.

移动IPv6已经包含一种识别移动节点的机制,即家庭地址选项[RFC3775]。因此,本文档中定义的新选项的漏洞与移动IPv6中已经存在的漏洞类似。具体地说,使用永久、稳定的标识符可能会损害用户的隐私,使得能够在特定设备或用户在不同位置移动时跟踪该设备或用户。

4.2. MN-NAI Considerations
4.2. MN-NAI考虑因素

Since the Mobile Node Identifier option described in Section 3 reveals the home affiliation of a user, it may assist an attacker in determining the identity of the user, help the attacker in targeting specific victims, or assist in further probing of the username space.

由于第3节中描述的移动节点标识符选项揭示了用户的归属关系,因此它可以帮助攻击者确定用户的身份,帮助攻击者瞄准特定的受害者,或者帮助进一步探测用户名空间。

These vulnerabilities can be addressed through various mechanisms, such as those discussed below:

这些漏洞可以通过各种机制解决,如下面讨论的机制:

o Encrypting traffic at the link layer, such that other users on the same link do not see the identifiers. This mechanism does not help against attackers on the rest of the path between the mobile node and its home agent.

o 在链路层加密通信量,以便同一链路上的其他用户看不到标识符。此机制无助于在移动节点与其归属代理之间的其余路径上抵御攻击者。

o Encrypting the whole packet, such as when using IPsec to protect the communications with the home agent [RFC3776].

o 加密整个数据包,例如使用IPsec保护与归属代理的通信[RFC3776]。

o Using an authentication mechanism that enables the use of privacy NAIs [RFC4282] or temporary, changing "pseudonyms" as identifiers.

o 使用能够使用隐私NAI[RFC4282]或临时更改“假名”作为标识符的身份验证机制。

In any case, it should be noted that as the identifier option is only needed on the first registration at the home agent and subsequent registrations can use the home address, the window of privacy vulnerability in this document is reduced as compared to [RFC3775]. In addition, this document is a part of a solution to allow dynamic home addresses to be used. This is an improvement to privacy as well, and it affects both communications with the home agent and the correspondent nodes, both of which have to be told the home address.

在任何情况下,应注意,由于标识符选项仅在家庭代理的第一次注册时需要,并且后续注册可以使用家庭地址,因此与[RFC3775]相比,本文档中的隐私漏洞窗口减少。此外,本文档是允许使用动态家庭地址的解决方案的一部分。这也是对隐私的改进,并且它影响与归属代理和对应节点的通信,这两个节点都必须被告知归属地址。

5. IANA Considerations
5. IANA考虑

The values for new mobility options must be assigned from the Mobile IPv6 [RFC3775] numbering space.

新移动选项的值必须从移动IPv6[RFC3775]编号空间分配。

The IANA has assigned the value 8 for the MN-ID-OPTION-TYPE.

IANA已为MN-ID-OPTION-TYPE分配了值8。

In addition, IANA has created a new namespace for the subtype field of the Mobile Node Identifier option. The currently allocated values are as follows:

此外,IANA还为移动节点标识符选项的子类型字段创建了一个新名称空间。当前分配的值如下所示:

NAI (defined in [RFC4282]).

NAI(定义见[RFC4282])。

New values for this namespace can be allocated using Standards Action [RFC2434].

可以使用标准操作[RFC2434]为此命名空间分配新值。
