Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
Abstract
This document defines a binding revocation mechanism to terminate a
mobile node's mobility session and the associated resources. These
semantics are generic enough and can be used by mobility entities in
the case of Mobile IPv6 and its extensions. This mechanism allows
the mobility entity which initiates the revocation procedure to
request its corresponding one to terminate either one, multiple or
all specified binding cache entries.

Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
1. Introduction
In the case of Mobile IPv6 and for administrative reason, sometimes
it becomes necessary to inform the mobile node that its registration
has been revoked and the mobile node is no longer able to receive IP
mobility service using its Home Address. A similar Mobile IPv4
registration revocation mechanism [RFC3543] has been specified by
IETF for providing a revocation mechanism for sessions that were
established using Mobile IPv4 registration [RFC3344].
This document specifies a binding revocation mechanism that can be
used to revoke a mobile node's mobility session(s). The same
mechanism can be used to revoke bindings created using Mobile IPv6
[RFC3775] or any of its extensions, e.g. Proxy Mobile IPv6
[RFC5213]. The proposed revocation mechanism uses a new MH type
<IANA-TBD> for revocation signaling which is applicable to Mobile
IPv6 [RFC3775] and Proxy Mobile IPv6 [RFC5213] and can be used by any
two IP mobility entities. As an example, this mechanism allows a
local mobility anchor (LMA), involved in providing IP mobility
services to a mobile node, to notify the mobile access gateway (MAG)
of the termination of a mobile node binding registration. In another
example, a mobile access gateway can use this mechanism to notify its
local mobility anchor peer with a bulk termination of all or a subset
of proxy mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) bindings that are registered with the
local mobility anchor and currently being served by the mobile access
gateway.

2.2. Terminology
All the general mobility related terminology and abbreviations are to
be interpreted as defined in Mobile IPv6 [RFC3775] and Proxy Mobile
IPv6 [RFC5213] specifications.
3. Binding Revocation Protocol and Use Cases Overview
This specification specifies a generic binding revocation mechanism
where a mobility node can communicate to the mobile node or another
mobility node the identity of the the mobile node registration
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
binding that is being terminated. In the case when this mechanism is
used for bulk termination or multiple bindings, the identities of
these bindings are communicated to the mobile node or mobility node
using the same generic mechanism. The following subsections describe
the protocol overview and applicable use cases.
3.1. Binding Revocation Protocol
In the case of Mobile IPv6, if the home network decides to terminate
the service of the mobile node, the home agent sends a Binding
Revocation Indication (BRI) message to the mobile node. The home
agent includes the home address (HoA) of the mobile node in the Type
2 routing header as specified in [RFC3775] to indicate the impacted
mobile node binding. In the case of Dual Stack Mobile IPv6 (DSMIPv6)
[RFC5555], the home agent may include the IPv4 Home Address option
with the mobile node assigned home IPv4 address. Additionally, if
the mobile node registered multiple care-of addresses [ID-MCoA], the
home agent includes the Binding Identifier (BID) option(s) in the
Binding Revocation Indication message to identify which binding is
being revoked. When the mobile node receives a Binding Revocation
Indication message with its HoA included in the Type 2 routing header
and the Acknowledge (A) bit is set, the mobile node responds by
sending a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement (BRA) message.
Similarly, in the case of Proxy Mobile IPv6 [RFC5213], the revocation
procedure can be initiated by the local mobility anchor by sending a
Binding Revocation Indication message to communicate the termination
of a mobile node registration binding to the mobile access gateway.
In this case, the local mobility anchor includes the mobile node Home
Network Prefix (MN-HNP) option [RFC5213] and the MN-ID option
[RFC4283] to indicate to the mobility access gateway the identity of
the PMIPv6 binding that needs to be terminated. When the mobile
access gateway receives the Binding Revocation Indication message
with the (A) bit set, the mobile access gateway responds to the local
mobility anchor by sending a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement
message.
On the other hand, the mobile access gateway usually sends a de-
registration message by sending a Proxy Binding Update with a
lifetime of zero to indicate to the local mobility anchor of the
termination of the PMIPv6 mobile node binding registration. In this
case, the mobile access gateway includes the MN-HNP option, the MN-ID
option and all other required mobility options as per [RFC5213] in
order for the local mobility anchor to identify the mobile node
PMIPv6 binding. Additionally, in the case when the mobile access
gateway communicates a bulk termination of PMIPv6 mobility sessions,
the mobile access gateway sends a Binding Revocation Indication
message with the (G) and (A) bits set and includes the mobile access
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
gateway identity in the MN-ID option. When the local mobility anchor
receives such Binding Revocation Indication message, it ensures that
the mobile access gateway is authorized to send such bulk termination
message and then processes the Binding Revocation Indication message
accordingly. If the local mobility anchor processes the Binding
Revocation Indication message successfully, the local mobility anchor
responds to the mobile access gateway by sending Binding Revocation
Acknowledgement message.
In any of the above cases, the initiator of the binding revocation
procedure, e.g., home agent, local mobility anchor, mobile access
gateway, uses the Revocation Trigger field in the Binding Revocation
Indication message to indicate to the receiving node the reason for
initiating the revocation procedure.
3.2. MIPv6 and DSMIP6 Use Case
Binding revocation mechanism is applicable to Mobile IPv6 and DSMIPv6
session(s) when the home agent needs to inform the mobile node that
its binding registration has been revoked, e.g. for an administrative
reason. This mechanism enables the user to react to the revocation,
e.g., reinstate its interrupted Mobile IPv6 services.
In this case, the home agent sends a Binding Revocation Indication
message to indicate to the mobile node that its current mobile IPv6
(MIPv6) binding has been revoked and it no longer able to receive IP
mobility service. The home agent includes the HoA in Type 2 routing
header as used in [RFC3775] and sets the Revocation Trigger field to
a proper value, e.g., Administrative Reason. In the case of DSMIPv6
session, the home agent may additionally include the mobile node
assigned IPv4 Home Address in the IPv4 Home Address option. When the
mobile node receives the Binding Revocation Indication message, it
sends a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement message as described in
Section 11.2 to the home agent. Figure 1 illustrates the message
sequencing when home agent revokes a mobile node binding
registration.

Figure 1: Home Agent Revokes a Mobile Node Binding Registration
3.3. Multi-Care of Addresses (Monami6) Use Case
In the case of multiple care-of addresses registration [ID-MCoA], the
home agent maintains different binding for each pair of care-of
address and home address. These bindings are also indexed and
identified during the mobile node registration using a BID mobility
option. The HA may revoke one or multiple bindings for the same
mobile node home address.
If the home agent revokes a single binding for a mobile node with
multiple care-of addresses registration, the home agent sends a
Binding Revocation Indication message to the mobile node with the
corresponding BID option included. If more than one of the mobile
node registered care-of addresses need to be revoked, the home agent
includes all the corresponding BID options in the same Binding
Revocation Indication message. Figure 2 illustrates the message flow
when the home agent revokes two registered Care-of addresses for the
same mobile node in a single Binding Revocation Indication message.

Figure 2: Home Agent Revokes MN's Specific Care-of Addresses Bindings
Additionally, the home agent may revoke all of the mobile node
registered bindings, by sending a BRI message without including any
BID options while the HoA is included in the Type 2 routing header.
Figure 1 illustrates the message flow when the home agent revokes all
registered Care-of addresses bindings for a mobile node in a single
Binding Revocation Indication message.
3.4. Proxy MIPv6 Use Case
Since the mobile node does not participate in the mobility mechanism
in the case of PMIPv6, there are many scenarios where Binding
Revocation mechanism is needed to clean resources and make sure that
the mobility entities, i.e., mobile access gateway and local mobility
anchor, are always synchronized with respect to the status of the
existing PMIPv6 bindings. The binding revocation mechanism is
generic enough that can be used for all Proxy Mobile IPv6 scenarios
that follow [RFC5213] and [ID-PMIP6-IPv4] specifications.
When the mobile access gateway receives a Binding Revocation
Indication message as in Section 10.1.1, the mobile access gateway
sends a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement message to the local
mobility anchor following the rules described in Section 10.1.2.
Similarly, if the local mobility anchor receives a Binding Revocation
Indication message with the (A) bit is set, the local mobility anchor
responds to the mobile access gateway by sending a Binding Revocation
Acknowledgement message.
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
3.4.1. Local Mobility Anchor Initiates PMIPv6 Binding Revocation
The local mobility anchor may send a Binding Revocation Indication
message to the mobile access gateway, hosting a specific PMIPv6
binding, with the appropriate value in the revocation trigger field
to indicate that the mobile node binding has been terminated and the
mobile access gateway can clean up the applicable resources. When
the mobile access gateway receives a Binding Revocation Indication
message, the mobile access gateway identifies the respected binding
and if the (A) bit was set in the received Binding Revocation
Indication message, it sends a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement
message to the local mobility anchor. In this case, the mobile
access gateway could send a Router Advertisement message to the
mobile node with the home network prefix valid lifetime set to zero.
As an example, Figure 3, illustrates the message sequence for
revoking a mobile node binding at the source mobile access gateway
during the mobile node inter-MAG handover. During the inter-MAG
handover, the mobile node moves from the source MAG to the target
MAG. The target MAG sends a Proxy Binding Update with the new care-
of-address to the local mobility anchor to update the mobile node's
point of attachment. Since the mobile node binding at the local
mobility anchor points to the source MAG and upon receiving the Proxy
Binding Update from the target MAG, the local mobility anchor updates
the MN BCE and send a Proxy Binding Acknowledgement to the target
MAG. The local mobility anchor can send a Binding Revocation
Indication message with the appropriate revocation trigger value,
e.g. inter-MAG handover - different Access Types, to the source MAG
in order to clean up the applicable resources reserved for the
specified mobile node binding. The mobile access gateway
acknowledges the Binding Revocation Indication message by sending a
Binding Revocation Acknowledgement message to indicate the success or
failure of the termination of the mobile node's binding.
The process identified above can also be used by the local mobility
anchor in scenarios other than the inter-MAG handover with the proper
revocation trigger value to indicate to the peer mobile access
gateway that a specific PMIPv6 binding or bindings have been revoked.

In addition, the local mobility anchor can send a Binding Revocation
Indication message to indicate that all bindings which are hosted by
the peer mobile access gateway and registered with the local mobility
anchor are being revoked by setting the (G) bit as described in
Section 9.1.1.
3.4.2. Mobile Access Gateway Revokes Bulk PMIPv6 Bindings
The mobile access gateway sends a BRI message with the (G) bit is set
to indicate that all mobility bindings which are registered at the
local mobility anchor and attached to the mobile access gateway are
being revoked as in Section 10.2.1. When the local mobility anchor
receives a Binding Revocation Indication message with the (G) bit is
set from a specified mobile access gateway, the local mobility anchor
first checks if the mobile access gateway is authorized to use global
revocations and then responds with the appropriate status code by
sending a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement message as in
Section 9.2.2.
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
4. Security Model
The binding revocation protocol described here uses the same security
association between the mobile node and the home agent or the mobile
access gateway and the local mobility anchor that has been used to
exchange the corresponding MIPv6 or PMIPv6 Binding Update and Binding
Acknowledgement when the mobile node binding was created. If IPsec
is used, the traffic selectors associated with the SPD entry
protecting the Binding Update and Binding Acknowledgement MUST be
extended to include Binding Revocation Signaling MH type <IANA-TBD>.
Extending the traffic selectors of the SPD entry in order to reuse
the SA protecting Binding Update and Binding Acknowledgement (instead
of creating new ones) ensures that those SA will be up and running
when the revoking entity needs to send a binding revocation signaling
message.
Additionally, in the case when the local mobility anchor receives a
Binding Revocation Indication which indicates a bulk termination
where the (G) bit is set and the Revocation Trigger field is set to
"Per-Peer Policy", the local mobility anchor MUST verify that the
mobile access gateway sending the binding revocation indication
message is authorized to invoke global revocation.
5. Binding Revocation Messages over IPv4 Transport Network
In some deployments, the network between the mobile access gateway
and the local mobility anchor may only support IPv4 transport. In
this case, the Binding Revocation messages (BRI and BRA) are tunneled
over IPv4. If the Proxy Binding Update and Proxy Binding
Acknowledgment messages are sent using UDP encapsulation to traverse
NATs, then the Binding Revocation messages are sent using the same
UDP encapsulation. The same UDP port that was used for exchanging
the Proxy Binding Update and Proxy Binding Acknowledgement messages
will also be used when transporting Binding Revocation messages over
IPv4 using UDP encapsulation. In other words, the destination UDP
port of the Binding Revocation Indication message MUST be set to the
source UDP port of the latest successfully processed Proxy Binding
Update message which is already saved in the mobile node BCE. For
more details on tunneling Proxy Mobile IPv6 signaling messages over
IPv4, see [ID-PMIP6-IPv4].
6. Binding Revocation Message
This section defines the Binding Revocation Message format using a MH
Type <IANA-TBD> as illustrated in Figure 4. The value in the Binding
Revocation Type field defines whether the Binding Revocation message
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 11]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
is a Binding Revocation Indication or Binding Revocation
Acknowledgement. If the Binding Revocation type field is set to 1,
the Binding Revocation Message is a Binding Revocation Indication as
in Section 6.1. However, if the value is 2, it is a Binding
Revocation Acknowledgement message as in Section 6.2.

the mobile access gateway, this option carries the MAG identity.
o Binding Identifier mobility option [ID-MCoA]. This option is
mandatory if the sending mobility entity requests to terminate one
binding of a multi care-of addresses bindings for the same mobile
node. The sending mobility entity may include more than one of
the BID mobility options.
o IPv4 Home Address option which contains the mobile node home IPv4
address [RFC5555]. This option is included only when the IPv4 HoA
Binding only (V) bit is set.
o Alternate Care-of Address mobility option [RFC3775]. This option
MAY be included to indicate the Care-of Address of the mobile
node's binding that is being revoked. In the case when the Global
(G) bit set, this option identifies all the mobility bindings that
share the same care-of address. Additionally, if the Global (G)
bit set, more than one Alternate Care-of Address mobility options
MAY be present in the Binding Revocation Indication message.
If no options are present in this message, 4 octets of padding are
necessary and the Header Len field of the Binding Revocation Message
will be set to 1.

6.2. Binding Revocation Acknowledgement Message
The Binding Revocation Acknowledgement (BRA) message is a Binding
Revocation Message which has a MH type <IANA-TBD> and a Binding
Revocation Type value of 2. It is used to acknowledge the receipt of
a Binding Revocation Indication message described in Section 6.1.
This packet is sent as described in Section 9.2.2, Section 10.1.2,
and Section 11.2.
When the value 2 is indicated in the Binding Revocation type field of
the Binding Revocation Message, the format of the Binding Revocation
Message Data follows the Binding Revocation Acknowledgement message
as in Figure 6

Status
8-bit unsigned integer indicating the result of processing the
Binding Revocation Indication message by the receiving mobility
entity. Values of the Status field less than 128 indicate that
the Binding Revocation Indication was processed successfully by
the receiving node. Values greater than or equal to 128 indicate
that the Binding Revocation Indication was rejected by the
receiving node. The following status values are currently
defined:
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 16]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
0 success
1 partial success
128 Binding Does NOT Exist
129 IPv4 Home Address Option Required
130 Global Revocation NOT Authorized
131 Revoked Mobile Nodes Identity Required
132 Revocation Failed - MN is Attached
133 Revocation Trigger NOT Supported
134 Revocation Function NOT Supported
Sequence #
The sequence number in the Binding Revocation Acknowledgement is
copied from the Sequence Number field in the Binding Revocation
Indication. It is used by the revoking mobility entity, e.g., HA,
LMA, MAG, in matching this Binding Revocation Acknowledgement with
the outstanding Binding Revocation Indication.
Proxy Binding (P)
The Proxy Binding (P) bit is set if the (P) bit is set in the
corresponding Binding Revocation Indication message.
IPv4 HoA Binding Only (V)
The IPv4 HoA Binding Only (V) bit is set if the (V) bit is set in
the corresponding Binding Revocation Indication message.
Global (G)
The Global (G) bit is set if the (G) bit is set in the
corresponding Binding Revocation Indication message.
Reserved
These fields are unused. They MUST be initialized to zero by the
sender and MUST be ignored by the receiver.
Mobility Options
Variable-length field of such length that the complete Mobility
Header is an integer multiple of 8 octets long. This field
contains zero or more TLV-encoded mobility options. In the case
when the Status field is set to success, no mobility option is
required. The mobility option(s) is usually used to communicate
information of the bindings that failed the revocation procedure.
The following mobility options are valid in a Binding Revocation

Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
Acknowledgement:
o Home Network Prefix option [RFC5213]. This option MAY be included
when the (P) bit is set.
o Mobile Node Identifier Option [RFC4283]. This option MAY be
included when the (P) bit is set. This option SHOULD be included
if the Home Network Prefix option is included.
o Binding Identifier mobility option [ID-MCoA]. This option MAY be
included to indicate the specific BID that the receiving node
failed to revoke.
If no options are present in this message, 4 octets of padding are
necessary and the Header Len field of the Binding Revocation Message
will be set to 1.
7. Binding Revocation Process Operation
The following subsections describe the details of the binding
revocation generic process by the different mobility entities.
7.1. Sending Binding Revocation Messages
When sending a Binding Revocation message, the sending mobility node,
initiator, constructs the packet as it would any other Mobility
Header with the exception of setting the MH Type field to <IANA-TBD>.
In addition, the mobility entity which initiates the binding
revocation process by sending a Binding Revocation Indication
message, initiator, MUST construct the Binding Revocation Message
Data following the format of the Binding Revocation Indication
message as described in Section 6.1. In the BRI message, the
initiator MUST set the Sequence Number field to the next sequence
number available for Binding Revocation. Since sending Binding
Revocation Indication message is not done on a regular basis, a 16
bit sequence number field is large enough to allow the initiator to
match the Binding Revocation Acknowledgement to the outstanding
Binding Revocation Indication with (A) bit set using the sequence
number field only.
However, when the responder acknowledges the Binding Revocation
Indication message, the responder MUST constructs the Binding
Revocation message packet as it would any other Mobility Header with
the exception of setting the MH Type field to <IANA-TBD>. It also
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 18]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
MUST construct the Binding Revocation Message Data following the
format of the Binding Revocation Acknowledgement message as described
in Section 6.2. In this case, the responder MUST set the Sequence
Number field by copying the value from the Sequence Number field of
the received Binding Revocation Indication. Additionally, it MUST
set the status field to a valid value that reflects the processing of
the received Binding Revocation Indication.
A mobility entity MUST secure Binding Revocation Indication and
Binding Revocation Acknowledgement messages with the same underlying
security association, e.g., IPsec SA, that has been used to secure
the mobile node binding registration signaling.
7.2. Receiving Binding Revocation Messages
When receiving a Binding Revocation message, the receiving mobility
node MUST verify the Mobility Header as described in section 9.2. of
[RFC3775]. If the packet is dropped due to failing any of the
Mobility Headers test check, the receiving node MUST follow the
processing rules as in Section 9.2 of [RFC3775]. If the receiving
node does not support the Binding Revocation Indication message and
does not recognize the new MH type, it sends a Binding Error message
with the Status field set to 2 as described in [RFC3775].
Since some mobility entities, e.g., local mobility anchor and mobile
access gateway, are allowed to receive and possibly send a Binding
Revocation Indication or Binding Revocation Acknowledgement for
different cases, therefore, if IPsec is used to secure signaling
between the them, it prevents any possible man in the middle
reflection attack.
Upon receiving a packet carrying a Binding Revocation Indication or
Binding Revocation Acknowledgement, the receiving mobility entity
verifies that the packet was received protected with the security
association that has been used during the binding registration
signaling phase, e.g., an IPsec SA.
Upon receiving a packet carrying a Binding Revocation
Acknowledgement, the receiving mobility entity, initiator, MUST
validate that sequence number in the Sequence Number field matches
the sequence number of an outstanding Binding Revocation Indication
that was sent by the initiator. If the sequence number does not
match any sequence number of any of the outstanding Binding
Revocation Indication, the receiving node MUST silently discard the
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 19]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
message but MAY log the event.
If a mobility node receives a Binding Revocation Indication message
with the Revocation Trigger field is set to a value that NOT
supported, the receiving mobility node SHOULD reject the Binding
Revocation Indication message by sending a Binding Revocation
Acknowledgement message with the Status field set to "Revocation
Trigger NOT Supported".
If a mobility node receives a Binding Revocation Indication message
with a Revocation Trigger value that is NOT in line with the Binding
Revocation Indication message intent, e.g., the Global Revocation (G)
bit set and the Revocation Trigger field vale is a per-MN specific,
the receiving mobility node SHOULD reject the Binding Revocation
Indication message by sending a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement
message with the Status field set to "Revocation Function NOT
Supported".
7.3. Retransmission of Binding Revocation Indication
If the sending mobility entity does not receive a Binding Revocation
Acknowledgement in response to the outstanding Binding Revocation
Indication before the MINDelayBRIs timer expires, the mobility
entity, e.g. LMA, may retransmit the same BRI message up to the
BRIMaxRetriesNumber as defined in Section 12. If the revoking
mobility entity does not receive a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement
message after the maximum number of retransmits have been sent, the
revoking mobility entity can clean the mobile node binding cache and
all resources associated with this binding. The revoking mobility
entity may log the event.
8. Home Agent Operation
8.1. Sending Binding Revocation Indication
To terminate a mobile node registration and its current binding with
the home agent, the home agent sends a packet to the mobile node
containing a Binding Revocation Indication, with the packet
constructed as follows:
o The Acknowledge (A) bit MAY be set to request the mobile node to
send a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement upon receipt of the
Binding Revocation Indication.
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 20]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
o The Revocation Trigger field MUST be set to indicate to the mobile
node the reason for revoking its IP mobility binding with the home
agent. The Revocation Trigger may be used by the mobile node to
take further steps if necessary.
o The Binding Revocation Indication MUST be sent using a Type 2
routing header which contains the mobile node's registered IPv6
home address for the binding being revoked.
o The care-of address for the binding MUST be used as the
destination address in the packet's IPv6 header, unless an
Alternate Care-of Address mobility option is included in the
Binding Revocation Indication.
o If the home agent needs to only revoke the mobile node's IPv4 home
address binding, the home agent MUST set the IPv4 HoA Binding Only
(V) bit and MUST include the mobile node's registered IPv4 home
address that is being revoked in the IPv4 Home Address option.
The Acknowledge (A) bit in the Binding Revocation Indication requests
the mobile node to return a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement in
response to this Binding Revocation Indication. As described in
Section 7.3, the home agent SHOULD retransmit this Binding Revocation
Indication to the mobile node before terminating its IP connection
until it receives a matching Binding Revocation Acknowledgement or
the BRIMaxRetransmitNumber has been reached.
When the home agent sends a Binding Revocation Indication to the
mobile node with the (A) bit set, the home agent sets a flag in the
mobile node BCE to indicate that revocation is in progress and starts
the MINDelayBRIs timer. The home agent maintains the mobile node BCE
in this state until it receives a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement
or the BRIMaxRetransmitNumber is reached.
In a race condition case, the home agent may receive a Binding Update
from the mobile node while the mobile node's BCE has the revocation
in progress flag set, the home agent SHOULD handle this case based on
the reason for sending the Binding Revocation Indication message and
its local policy. In this case, if the home agent accepts the
Binding Update, it needs to update the mobile node BCE accordingly,
e.g. removing the revocation in progress flag.
When the home agent needs to revoke one or more of a mobile node
bindings that were created using Multi Care-of address registration
as in [ID-MCoA], the home agent MUST include all the related BID
mobility options that identify these bindings in the Binding
Revocation Indication message. In the case when the home agent needs
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 21]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
to revoke all of the mobile node bindings, the home agent SHOULD NOT
include any of the BID mobility options.
8.2. Receiving Binding Revocation Acknowledgement
When the home agent receives a packet carrying a valid Binding
Revocation Acknowledgement that was successfully processed as in
Section 7.2, the home agent SHOULD examine the Status field as
follows:
o If the Status field indicates that the Binding Revocation
Indication was processed successfully, the home agent deletes the
MINDelayBRIs timer and the mobile node bindings and all related
resources.
o If the Status field indicates any value other than success, the
home agent SHOULD examine any mobility options included in the
Binding Revocation Acknowledgement. The home agent MAY log the
appropriate event to reflect the received status.
9. Local Mobility Anchor Operation
9.1. Binding Revocation Initiator
9.1.1. Sending Binding Revocation Indication
To terminate a mobile node PMIPv6 registration and its current
binding with the local mobility anchor, the local mobility anchor
sends a packet to the mobile access gateway containing a Binding
Revocation Indication message following the procedure in Section 7.1
and the following rules:
o The Acknowledge (A) bit MAY be set to request the mobile access
gateway to send a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement upon receipt
of the Binding Revocation Indication.
o The Proxy Mobile IP (P) bit MUST be set to indicate that the
binding being revoked is a PMIPv6 binding.
o The Revocation Trigger field MUST be set to indicate to the mobile
access gateway the reason for removing the specified mobile node
PMIPv6 binding at the local mobility anchor. The Revocation
Trigger may be used by the mobile access gateway to learn the
mobile node's latest movement.
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 22]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
o In case of revoking all Per-Peer bindings, the Global (G) bit MUST
be set and the Revocation Trigger MUST contain a value of "Per-
Peer Policy" to request the mobile access gateway to remove all
Per-Peer bindings that are registered with the local mobility
anchor and hosted at this mobile access gateway.
o Whenever the Global (G) bit is set in the Binding Revocation
Indication, the Acknowledge (A) bit MUST be set to request the
mobile access gateway to send a Binding Revocation
Acknowledgement.
o The packet MUST contain the Mobile Node Identifier, MN-ID, option
which contains the mobile node's NAI that was used in the Proxy
Binding Update during the mobile node registration.
o If the Mobile Node Identifier, MN-ID, is registered in more than
one of the mobile node's BCE and the local mobility anchor does
NOT need to revoke all of the mobile node's bindings, the packet
MUST contain another identifier to uniquely identify the mobile
node binding(s) that is being revoked, e.g., at least one Home
Network Prefix option which contains the mobile node's registered
HNP for the binding being revoked.
o The care-of address for the binding MUST be used as the
destination address in the packet's IPv6 header, unless an
Alternate Care-of Address mobility option is included in the
Binding Revocation Indication message.
The Acknowledge (A) bit in the Binding Revocation Indication requests
the mobile access gateway to return a Binding Revocation
Acknowledgement. As described in Section 7.3, the local mobility
anchor SHOULD retransmit this Binding Revocation Indication before
deleting the mobile node IP tunnel to the mobile access gateway until
it receives a matching Binding Revocation Acknowledgement or the
BRIMaxRetransmitNumber is reached. The local mobility anchor MAY
delete the mobile node(s) IP tunnel immediately after sending the
Binding Revocation Indication and before receiving the Binding
Revocation Acknowledgement message.
When the local mobility anchor sends a Binding Revocation Indication
to the mobile access gateway to remove a specific binding and the
Acknowledge (A) bit is set, the local mobility anchor sets a flag in
the mobile node proxy BCE to indicate that revocation is in progress
and starts the MINDelayBRIs timer. The local mobility anchor SHOULD
maintain the mobile node proxy BCE in this state until it receives a
Binding Revocation Acknowledgement or the BRIMaxRetransmitNumber is
reached. In the case when the local mobility anchor sets the
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 23]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
Revocation Trigger field to a value which indicates inter-MAG
handover, the local mobility anchor MAY switch the mobile node IP
tunnel to the target mobile access gateway before sending the Binding
Revocation Indication to the source mobile access gateway.
In a race condition case, the local mobility anchor may receive a
Proxy Binding Update from the mobile access gateway while the mobile
node's proxy BCE has the revocation in progress flag set, the local
mobility anchor should handle this case based on the reason for
sending the Binding Revocation Indication message and its local
policy. In this case, if the local mobility anchor accepts the Proxy
Binding Update, it needs to update the mobile node proxy BCE
accordingly, e.g. removing the revocation in progress flag.
When the local mobility anchor needs to revoke all mobile nodes proxy
BCE that are registered with the local mobility anchor and hosted at
the mobile access gateway, it MUST set the Global (G) bit and set the
value of the Revocation Trigger field to "Per-Peer Policy". In this
case, the local mobility anchor MUST NOT include any mobility options
in the this Binding Revocation Indication message.
When the local mobility anchor needs to revoke all mobile nodes proxy
BCE that belong to a specific realm, e.g. @companyabc.com, that are
registered with the local mobility anchor and hosted at the mobile
access gateway, the local mobility anchor MUST set the Global (G) bit
and set the value of the Revocation Trigger field to "Revoking
Mobility Node Local Policy". In this case, the local mobility anchor
MUST include a mobility option in the Binding Revocation Indication
to identify the impacted bindings, e.g., MN-ID option with a wildcard
NAI, e.g. *@companyabc.com, to identify all the mobile nodes BCEs
that need to be removed.
When the mobile node is registered with multiple Home Network
Prefixes for the same proxy care-of address, the local mobility
anchor SHOULD include a HNP option for each registered HNP in the
Binding Revocation Indication. Alternatively, it MAY include only
the mobile node identifier, MN-ID, option to indicate to the mobile
access gateway to remove all bindings of the specified mobile node
NAI in the MN-ID option.
According to Proxy Mobile IPv6 specification [RFC5213], if the local
mobility anchor receives a Proxy Binding Update message from a new
mobile access gateway for extending the binding lifetime of the only
BCE of this mobile node with the Handoff Indicator value is set to
"Inter-MAG Handover - Unknown", the local mobility anchor waits a
period of MaxDelayBeforeNewBCEAssign to receive a de-registration
message from the previous mobile access gateway before updating the
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 24]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
mobile node's BCE with the new point of attachment. If a de-
registration message is not received,, the local mobility anchor
considers the received Proxy Binding Update message as a request for
a new BCE and if processed successfully, the local mobility anchor
assigns a different HNP for the new BCE.
This document updates the local mobility anchor's behavior in this
case. If the local mobility anchor supports the binding revocation
mechanism as described in this document, it SHOULD proactively send a
Binding Revocation Indication message to the previous mobile access
gateway instead of waiting for a de-registration from the previous
mobile access gateway. In the Binding Revocation Indication message,
the (A) bit MUST be set and the Revocation Trigger MUST be set to
"Inter-MAG Handover - Unknown".
If the local mobility anchor sent a Binding Revocation Indication
message with the Revocation Trigger field set to "Inter-MAG Handover
- Unknown" and while waiting for a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement
response, the following are possible conditions that the local
mobility anchor MUST handle as specified below:
o If the local mobility anchor receives a successful Binding
Revocation Acknowledgement message or a de-registration message
from the previous mobile access gateway, the local mobility anchor
MUST update the mobile node BCE in a similar way as if it received
a de-registration message as described in [RFC5213].
o If the local mobility anchor receives a Binding Revocation
Acknowledgement message with the status field set to "Revocation
Failed - MN is Attached", the local mobility anchor SHOULD update
the mobile node BCE in a similar way as if it did NOT receive a
de-registration before the MaxDelayBeforeNewBCEAssign timer
expires by creating a new BCE as described in [RFC5213].
o If the local mobility anchor did not receive a Binding Revocation
Acknowledgement message nor a de-registration Proxy Binding Update
from the previous mobile access gateway after it exhausted all of
the Binding Revocation Indication message retransmissions as
described in Section 7.3, the local mobility anchor SHOULD update
the mobile node's BCE in a similar way as if it did NOT receive a
de-registration before the MaxDelayBeforeNewBCEAssign timer
expires by creating a new BCE as described in [RFC5213]. Note
that the local mobility anchor SHOULD use the recommended number
of retransmissions for the Binding Revocation Indication message
as described in Section 12 to avoid delaying the creation of a new
binding cache entry for too long, if the mobile node is actually
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 25]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
attaching to the new MAG with a different interface.
When the mobile node is registered with an IPv4 proxy home address in
addition to the Home Network Prefix where both of the IPv4 pHoA and
HNP are bound to the same proxy CoA, the local mobility anchor MAY
revoke the mobile node IPv4 proxy HoA binding to the current mobile
node proxy CoA while maintaining the mobile node binding of the HNP
to its current pCoA as part of the mobile node BCE. In this case, if
the local mobility anchor decides to revoke the mobile node IPv4
proxy HoA ONLY, it MUST send a Binding Revocation Indication message
following the procedure in Section 7.1 and the following rules:
o The IPv4 HoA Binding Only (V) bit MUST be set in the BRI to
indicate that only the IPv4 home address binding is being revoked.
o The Acknowledge (A) bit MUST be set to request the mobile access
gateway to send a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement message.
o The IPv4 Home Address option MUST be included with the mobile
node's registered IPv4 home address that is being released in
addition to the MN-ID option.
o The mobile node Home Network Prefix option MUST NOT be included.
o The Revocation Trigger field MUST be set to an appropriate value,
e.g. "User Initiated Session(s) Termination".
9.1.2. Receiving Binding Revocation Acknowledgement
When the local mobility anchor receives a packet carrying a valid
Binding Revocation Acknowledgement that was successfully processed as
in Section 7.2 and if the mobile node BCE is in the state of
Revocation in progress, the local mobility anchor SHOULD examine the
Status field before clearing the mobile node related resources as
follows:
o If the Status field indicates that the BRI was processed
successfully, the local mobility anchor delete the MINDelayBRIs
timer and the mobile node proxy bindings and all associated
resources.
o If the Status field indicates partial success value or MN binding
does not exist, the local mobility anchor SHOULD examine mobility
options that are included in the Binding Revocation
Acknowledgement, if any, before deleting the MINDelayBRIs timer
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 26]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
and the mobile node associated proxy bindings and other related
resources. It is based on the local mobility anchor local policy
how to handle the mobile node BCE(s) that the mobile access
gateway indicated it failed the revocation procedure, however, the
LMA MAY log the event.
9.2. Binding Revocation Responder
9.2.1. Receiving Binding Revocation Indication
When the local mobility anchor receives a packet carrying a Binding
Revocation Indication that was successfully processed as in
Section 7.2, the local mobility anchor SHOULD in addition process the
message as follows:
o Binding Revocation Indication is formatted as in Section 6.1 and
if the (P) bit is set, the local mobility anchor MUST validate
that all impacted binding(s) have the proxy binding flag set.
o If the Global (G) bit is set and the Revocation Trigger value is
"Per-Peer Policy", the Proxy (P) bit MUST be set and the Binding
Revocation Indication SHOULD contain the mobile access gateway ID
in the MN-ID option. The local mobility anchor MUST verify that
the identified mobile access gateway as per the value in the MN-ID
option is authorized to use the Global revocation. The mechanism
the local mobility anchor uses to verify the mobile access gateway
authorization is out of scope of this document.
o If the Global (G) bit is set and the Revocation Trigger value is
"Per-Peer Policy", and only the mobile node identifier, MN-ID,
option is included, the local mobility anchor MUST revoke all
mobile nodes bindings which proxy CoA is the one used as the
source of the IPv6 packet that carried the Binding Revocation
Indication. However, if one or more Alternate Care-of Address
options are included in addition to the mobile node identifier
option, the local mobility anchor MUST revoke all mobile nodes
bindings which proxy Care-of Address matches one of the Care-of
address(es) in the Alternate Care-of Address option(s).
o The local mobility anchor identifies all impacted mobile nodes
bindings and if the Acknowledgement (A) bit is set, the local
mobility anchor MUST send a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement
following Section 9.2.2 using the appropriate status code.
o If the Global (G) bit is NOT set, the local mobility anchor SHOULD
use the included mobility options to identify the impacted mobile
node binding as follows:
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 27]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
1. If only the mobile node identifier, MN-ID, option is included,
the local mobility anchor MUST revoke all bindings for this
mobile node which use the specified mobile node NAI.
2. If the mobile node identifier, MN-ID, and the Home Network
Prefix option are included, the local mobility anchor MUST
only remove the specified proxy binding.
3. If the mobile node identifier, MN-ID, option and more than one
Home Network Prefix options are included, the local mobility
anchor MUST remove all bindings which are referenced by these
multiple Home Network Prefixes for the specified mobile node
NAI.
The Revocation Trigger field value in the received Binding Revocation
Indication could be used by the local mobility anchor to log an event
or update some local parameters which tracks the state of the peer
mobile access gateway.
9.2.2. Sending Binding Revocation Acknowledgement
When the local mobility anchor receive a valid Binding Revocation
Indication with the (A) bit set and after processing the Binding
Revocation Indication message, the local mobility anchor sends a
packet to the mobile access gateway containing a Binding Revocation
Acknowledgement following the process in Section 7.1 and the
following:
o If the (P) bit was set in the received Binding Revocation
Indication, the local mobility anchor MUST set the (P) bit in the
Binding Revocation Acknowledgement.
o If the Global (G) bit was set in the received Binding Revocation
Indication, the local mobility anchor MUST set the (G) bit in the
Binding Revocation Acknowledgement.
o If the IPv4 HoA Binding Only (V) bit was set in the received
Binding Revocation Indication, the local mobility anchor MUST set
the (V) bit in the Binding Revocation Acknowledgement.
o The local mobility anchor MUST set the Status field to a valid
code that reflects the processing of the received Binding
Revocation Indication. If the mobile access gateway is not
authorized to use the Per-Peer Global revocation feature, the
local mobility anchor MUST set the Status field to (Global
Revocation NOT Authorized).
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 28]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
o In the case that one of the bindings identified in the received
Binding Revocation Indication message has already been released
before receiving the it, the local mobility anchor MAY set the
Status field to partial success and in this case it MAY include
the mobile node identifier or the Home Network Prefix option to
identify the binding(s) that failed revocation.
o The destination IP address of the IPv6 packet of the Binding
Revocation Acknowledgement is set to the source IP address of the
received Binding Revocation Indication.
10. Mobile Access Gateway Operation
10.1. Binding Revocation Responder
10.1.1. Receiving Binding Revocation Indication
Upon receiving a packet carrying a Binding Revocation Indication, the
mobile access gateway MUST validate the packet according to
Section 7.2 and the following:
o Binding Revocation Indication MUST be formatted as in Section 6.1
and the (P) bit is set.
o If the Acknowledgement (A) bit in the received Binding Revocation
Indication is set, the mobile access gateway MUST send a Binding
Revocation Acknowledgement following Section 10.1.2 using the
appropriate status value.
o If the Global (G) bit is set and the Revocation Trigger field
value is "Per-Peer policy", the mobile access gateway identifies
all bindings that are registered at the local mobility anchor and
hosted at the mobile access gateway. This Binding Revocation
Indication does not include any other mobility options. In this
case, the mobile access gateway MUST send a Binding Revocation
Acknowledgement with the appropriate status code to the local
mobility anchor.
o If the Global (G) bit is set and the Revocation Trigger field
value is "Revoking Mobility Node Local Policy", the mobile access
gateway MUST identify all bindings that are registered at the
local mobility anchor and hosted at the mobile access gateway
using the mobility option(s) included in the Binding Revocation
Indication which SHOULD include at least the MN-ID option, e.g.,
with a wild card NAI. In this case, the mobile access gateway
MUST send a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement with the
appropriate status code to the local mobility anchor.

options are included in the Binding Revocation Indication message
or the mobile access gateway is not able to identify the impacted
mobile nodes bindings based on the included mobility options, the
mobile access gateway MUST treat this as an error scenario. In
this case, the mobile access gateway SHOULD send a Binding
Revocation Acknowledgement message with status "Revoked Mobile
Nodes Identity Required".
o If the Revocation Trigger field value in the received Binding
Revocation Indication message indicates inter-MAG handover, e.g.,
Inter-MAG Handover - Unknown, and the (A) bit is set, the mobile
access gateway use the mobility option(s) included in the Binding
Revocation Indication message to identify the mobile node binding.
The mobile access gateway SHOULD validate that the mobile node is
no longer attached to the mobile access gateway before sending a
successful Binding Revocation Acknowledgement message to the local
mobility anchor. However, if the mobile access gateway verified
that the mobile node is still directly attached, the mobile access
gateway MUST set the status field in the Binding Revocation
Acknowledgement to "Revocation failed - MN is Attached".
o If the IPv4 HoA Binding Only (V) bit in the received Binding
Revocation Indication message is set, the mobile access gateway
uses the MN-ID option to identify the mobile node binding entry in
the BUL. It MUST verify that the IPv4 address included in the
IPv4 Home Address option in the received Binding Revocation
Indication is the same as the IPv4 proxy HoA that is assigned to
the mobile node. After the mobile access gateway successfully
validates the received IPv4 home address as the mobile node IPv4
HoA, it MUST consider this as an indication to release the mobile
node IPv4 proxy HoA binding to the mobile node current proxy CoA
ONLY. Consequently, it MUST continue to maintain the mobile node
IPv6 proxy HoA or HNP binding to the current mobile node proxy CoA
as part of the mobile node binding in the BUL entry and release
all resources associated with the MN IPv4 proxy HoA binding to the
MN pCoA. In this case, the mobile access gateway MUST send a
Binding Revocation Acknowledgement message with the Status field
is set to success. On the other hand, if the mobile access
gateway is able to identify the mobile node binding using the
MN-ID but failed to identify the received IPv4 proxy HoA, it MUST
send a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement with Status field is set
to "Binding Does NOT Exist".
The Revocation Trigger field value in the received Binding Revocation
Indication could be used by the mobile access gateway to define what
actions the mobile access gateway could do to inform the mobile node
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 30]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
that its IP connectivity to the current HNP has been terminated,
e.g., if the Revocation Trigger field is set to "Administrative
Reason", the mobile access gateway may send a RA message after
setting the Home Network Prefix valid lifetime to zero.
10.1.2. Sending Binding Revocation Acknowledgement
When the mobile access gateway receive a valid Binding Revocation
Indication with the (A) bit set and after processing it, the mobile
access gateway sends a packet to the local mobility anchor containing
a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement according to the procedure in
Section 7.1 and the following:
o The mobile access gateway MUST set the (P) bit in the Binding
Revocation Acknowledgement if it is set in the received Binding
Revocation Indication.
o If the Global (G) bit was set in the received Binding Revocation
Indication, the mobile access gateway MUST set the (G) bit in the
Binding Revocation Acknowledgement.
o If the IPv4 HoA Binding Only (V) bit was set in the received
Binding Revocation Indication, the mobile access gateway MUST set
the (V) bit in the Binding Revocation Acknowledgement.
o The mobile access gateway MUST set the Status field to a valid
code that reflects the processing of the received Binding
Revocation Indication.
o In the case that one or more of the bindings identified in the
received Binding Revocation Indication message has already been
released before receiving the Binding Revocation Indication, the
mobile access gateway MAY set the Status field to "partial
success" and include the mobile node identifier, MN-ID, or the
Home Network Prefix option to identify the binding(s) that failed
to be removed as part of the revocation procedure.
o The destination IP address of the IPv6 packet of the Binding
Revocation Acknowledgement is set to the source IP address of the
received Binding Revocation Indication.
10.2. Binding Revocation Initiator
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 31]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
10.2.1. Sending Binding Revocation Indication
The mobile access gateway could send a Binding Revocation Indication
message to indicate the termination of multiple mobile node bindings,
e.g., when using the global revocation with the Global (G) bit set.
In this case when an event occurs which requires the mobile access
gateway to inform the local mobility anchor to terminate all mobile
nodes bindings which are registered at the local mobility anchor and
the mobile access gateway, the mobile access gateway sends a Binding
Revocation Indication message following Section 7.1 and the
following:
o The Acknowledge (A) bit MUST be set in the to request the local
mobility anchor to send a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement upon
receipt of the Binding Revocation Indication.
o The Proxy Binding (P) bit MUST be set to indicate that bindings
that being revoked is a PMIPv6 binding.
o The Global (G) bit MUST be set and the Revocation Trigger MUST
contain a value of "Per-Peer Policy" in the Binding Revocation
Indication to request the local mobility anchor to remove all Per-
Peer bindings that are registered with the local mobility anchor
and hosted at this mobile access gateway. In this case, the MN-ID
option MUST be included in the Binding Revocation Indication and
contain the mobile access gateway identity. In addition, the
mobile access gateway MAY include one or more Alternate Care-of
Address option(s). The Alternate Care-of Address option(s)
contain the proxy Care-of address(es) which their bindings are
being impacted by this Binding Revocation Indication message.
o The mobile access gateway address MAY be used as the source
address in the packet's IPv6 header.
The Acknowledge (A) bit in the Binding Revocation Indication requests
the local mobility anchor to return a Binding Revocation
Acknowledgement in response to this Binding Revocation Indication.
As described in Section 7.3, the mobile access gateway SHOULD
retransmit this Binding Revocation Indication to the local mobility
anchor until it receives a matching Binding Revocation
Acknowledgement or the BRIMaxRetransmitNumber is reached. The mobile
access gateway MAY delete the mobile nodes IP tunnels immediately
after sending the Binding Revocation Indication and before receiving
a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement message from the LMA.

10.2.2. Receiving Binding Revocation Acknowledgement
When the mobile access gateway receives a packet carrying a valid
Binding Revocation Acknowledgement that was successfully processed
according to Section 7.2, the mobile access gateway MUST process the
received Binding Revocation Acknowledgement as per the followings:
o When the mobile access gateway receives a packet carrying a valid
Binding Revocation Acknowledgement and the Global (G) and Proxy
Binding (P) bits are set and the mobile nodes BCEs are in the
state of Revocation in Progress, the mobile access gateway SHOULD
examine the Status field as follows:
o If the Status field indicates that the Binding Revocation
Indication was processed successfully, the mobile access gateway
delete the MINDelayBRIs timer and the mobile nodes proxy bindings
and all associated resources.
o If the Status field indicates (Global Revocation NOT Authorized),
the mobile access gateway is not authorized to participate in a
Per-Peer Global Revocation. The mobile access gateway SHOULD NOT
retry sending a Binding Revocation Indication with the Global (G)
bit set to the same local mobility agent. The mobile access
gateway should raise an alarm or log an event to indicate this
rejection.
11. Mobile Node Operation
11.1. Receiving Binding Revocation Indication
Upon receiving a packet carrying a Binding Revocation Indication, the
mobile node MUST validate the packet according to Section 7.2 and the
following tests:
o The mobile node MUST verify that the IP address in the Type 2
routing header is its Home Address and that its Binding Update
List contains an entry for that Home Address. If one of the
tests, fails the mobile node SHOULD silently discard the received
Binding Revocation Indication message.
o If the Acknowledgement (A) bit is set in the Binding Revocation
Indication and its Binding Update List contains an entry for the
IP address in the Type 2 routing header, the mobile node MUST send
a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement. However, in all other cases
when the (A) bit is set in the BRI, the mobile node SHOULD send a
Binding Revocation Acknowledgement. In all cases, the mobile node
MUST follow Section 11.2 and send a Binding Revocation
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 33]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
Acknowledgement using the appropriate status code.
o If the IPv4 HoA Binding Only (V) bit is set in the received BRI
message, the mobile node MUST verify that there is an IPv4 Home
Address option in the received Binding Revocation Indication and
the IPv4 address included in the IPv4 Home Address option is the
same as its IPv4 HoA that is assigned to the mobile node. If this
verification is successful, the mobile node MUST consider this
Binding Revocation Indication as an indication to release the
mobile node IPv4 HoA binding ONLY to its current Care-of Address.
Consequently, the mobile node MUST continue to maintain its IPv6
HoA binding to the current CoA as part of the mobile node binding
in the BUL entry and release all resources associated with the MN
IPv4 HoA binding. In this case, the mobile node MUST send a
Binding Revocation Acknowledgement message with the Status field
is set to "success". On the other hand, if the IPv4 Home Address
Option was NOT included in the received BRI with the (V) bit set,
the MN SHOULD send a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement message
with the Status field set to "IPv4 Home Address Option Required".
Additionally, if the IPv4 HoA received in the IPv4 Home Address
Option is NOT the one assigned to the mobile node, the mobile node
SHOULD send a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement with the status
field set to "Binding Does NOT Exist".
o The mobile node MUST verify that the (P) bit in the Binding
Revocation Indication is NOT set. If the (P) bit is set, the
mobile node MUST silently discard the Binding Revocation
Indication message.
o If the mobile node has registered multiple care-of addresses with
its home agent, the mobile node MUST verify which binding is being
revoked by examining the content of the Binding Revocation
Indication message. If the mobile node received a Binding
Revocation Indication with a single or more than one BID options
and its home address is included in the Type 2 routing header, the
mobile node MUST consider all of the care-of address(es)
binding(s), identified in the BID options, with this home address
are being revoked.
o If the mobile node has multi Care-of Address bindings with its
home agent and received a Binding Revocation Indication, without
any BID option included and its home address was included in the
Type 2 routing header, the mobile node MUST consider all of its
registered care-of addresses bindings with this home address are
being revoked.
The Revocation Trigger field value in the received Binding Revocation

Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
Indication could be used by the mobile node to define what action the
mobile node could do to be able to register again and receive its IP
mobility service, e.g., contacting its home operator.
11.2. Sending Binding Revocation Acknowledgement
When the mobile node receives a Binding Revocation Indication from
its home agent, the mobile node processes the received Binding
Revocation Indication as in Section 11.1. If the mobile node is
required to send a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement message in
response to the received Binding Revocation Indication, the mobile
node sends a packet to its home agent containing a Binding Revocation
Acknowledgement according to the procedure in Section 7.1 and the
following:
o The mobile node MUST set the Status field to an appropriate value.
The mobile node sets the Status field to success to reflect that
it has received the Binding Revocation Indication and acknowledge
that its IP connectivity with its home agent has been revoked.
o The destination IP address of the IPv6 packet of the Binding
Revocation Acknowledgement is set to the source IP address of the
received IPv6 packet of the Binding Revocation Indication. The
Mobile Node MUST include its home address in the Home Address
Destination Option.
12. Protocol Configuration Variables
Any mobility entity which is allowed to invoke the binding revocation
procedure by sending a Binding Revocation Indication message SHOULD
allow the following variables to be configured.
BRI Maximum Number of Retries (BRIMaxRetriesNumber)
This variable specifies the maximum Number of times a mobility
entity can retransmit a Binding Revocation Indication message
before receiving a Binding Revocation Acknowledgement message.
The default value for this parameter is 1.
Minimum Delay Between BRI messages (MINDelayBRIs)
This variable specifies the delay time in seconds before the
revoking mobility entity retransmits a BRI message. The default
is 1 second but not less than 0.5 seconds.

Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
13. IANA Considerations
This specification defines a new Binding Revocation Message using a
new Mobility Header Type <IANA-TBD>, as described in Section 6. The
new Mobility Header type value needs to be assigned from the same
numbering space as allocated for the other Mobility Header types.
This document also creates a new name space "Binding Revocation Type"
which indicates the type of the binding revocation message. The
current binding revocation message types are described in Section 6.1
and Section 6.2, and are the following:
0 Reserved
1 Binding Revocation Indication
2 Binding Revocation Acknowledgement
All other values are reserved
Future values of the Binding Revocation Type can be allocated using
Standards Action or IESG Approval [RFC2434].
In addition, this document also creates a second new namespace for
the Revocation Trigger which indicates the reason behind sending the
Binding Revocation Indication message. The current Revocation
Trigger values are described in Section 6.1, and are the following:
Reserved and Per-MN Revocation Trigger Values:
0 Reserved
1 Unspecified
2 Administrative Reason
3 Inter-MAG Handover - same Access Type
4 Inter-MAG Handover - different Access Type
5 Inter-MAG Handover - Unknown
6 User Initiated Session(s) Termination
7 Access Network Session(s) Termination
8 Possible Out-of Sync BCE State
250-255 Reserved For Testing Purposes only
All other values are Reserved
Global Revocation Trigger Values:
128 Per-Peer Policy
129 Revoking Mobility Node Local Policy
Future values of the Revocation Trigger can be allocated using
Standards Action or IESG Approval [RFC2434].
Furthermore, this document creates a third new name space "Status
Code" for the Status field in the Binding Revocation Acknowledgement
Muhanna, et al. Expires December 16, 2009 [Page 36]
Internet-Draft Binding Revocation for IPv6 Mobility June 2009
message. The current values are described in Section 6.2, and are
the following:
0 success
1 partial success
128 Binding Does NOT Exist
129 IPv4 Home Address Option Required
130 Global Revocation NOT Authorized
131 Revoked Mobile Nodes Identity Required
132 Revocation Failed - MN is Attached
133 Revocation Trigger NOT Supported
134 Revocation Function NOT Supported
Future values of the Status field can be allocated using Standards
Action or IESG Approval [RFC2434].
All fields labeled "Reserved" are only to be assigned through
Standards Action or IESG Approval.
14. Security Considerations
The protocol described here uses the same security association
between the mobile node and the home agent or the mobile access
gateway and the local mobility anchor that has been used to exchange
the corresponding MIPv6 or PMIPv6 Binding Update and Binding
Acknowledgement when the session was established. If IPsec is used,
the SPD of this IPsec SA MUST allow the MH type for the Binding
Revocation Message defined in this document.
However, in the case when the mobile access gateway sends a Binding
Revocation Indication message with the Global (G) bit is set and the
Revocation Trigger field is set to "Per-Peer policy", the local
mobility anchor MUST verify that the mobile access gateway is
authorized to use Per-Peer Global Revocation.
