Hi folks,

Just wanted to let you know that we just submitted a draft proposing an specification for support of RADIUS for Mobile IP key management procedures. The draft goes through two cases of co-located mobile nodes and nodes behind an FA and describes RADIUS messaging and attributes for each case. Since the draft deals with both Mobile IPv4 and RADIUS, it needs to be examined by both groups. We know that this is really more an extension to RADIUS than to Mobile IP and should be standardized by RADIUS groups, but we would like to make sure that we got the Mobile IP parts right first :-).

So comments and guidance are very welcome.

Thanks and Regards,

Madjid Nakhjiri, Kuntal Chowdhury, Avi Lior

Abstract 

   Mobile IPv4 specifies mechanisms that need assistance from a AAA 

   server and a AAA infrastructure. Examples of such mechanisms are 

   those providing key management and authentication services during a 

   mobile node's registration process with MN-AAA authentication 

   extension. Although Diameter Mobile IP application is being specified 

   to support the needs of Mobile IPv4 from the AAA infrastructure's 

   point of view, such support does not exist within RADIUS framework. 

   This document defines the RADIUS attributes that provide support for 

   Mobile IPv4 operation.
