Abstract
Providing an existing scalable authorization infrastructure for mobile nodes is needed for IPv6-based mobility. SIM Authentication provides a protocol for authenticating and authorizing services. It uses an authorizing home domain defined by the Subscriber Identity Module (SIM). The protocol is an Internet Control Message Protocol for IPv6 (ICMPv6) [17] extension. It can leverage the existing SIM authorization infrastructure for automatic bootstrapping of security association between the mobile node and a service, where the service can be e.g. authorized last-hop VPN setup for network access or Mobile IPv6 mobile-home security association setup.
