Abstract

   The IPv6-based end-user device is commonly not able to utilize the
   advantages introduced by the mobile IP protocols. However, this
   specification describes how an end-user device supporting only IPv6
   protocol stack may be provided with a mobility service by the mobile
   IPv4-based access network. The unaltered end-user device relies on
   the functionalities of the two network-side entities, the Home Agent

1. Introduction

   This specification describes how an end-user device supporting only
   IPv6 protocol stack may be provided with a mobility service by the
   mobile IPv4-based access network. The mobility management is handled
   completely by the network without any involvement of the end-user
   device.

1.1. Motivation

   The operators of IPv4 networks are facing the problem of the shortage
   of the IPv4 address space. One possibility to cope with this problem
   is the introduction of NATs, but this approach is not ideal and has
   its own set of issues. For example, some applications exchange the IP
   addresses in the application layer payload. These addresses go
   unnoticed by the NAT and are not rewritten, with the consequence that
   the application fails. Such problems may be addressed by the
   introduction of application layer gateways at the cost of additional
   complexity. In this perspective, the deployment of IPv6, with its
   huge address space, seems very appealing.

   There is also a constant growth in the number of mobile devices
   causing additional pressure on the already exhausted IPv4 address
   space. These devices expect to be able to access the network from
   anywhere, anytime and to provide the always-on experience. Those end-
   user devices also require some form of mobility management. However,
   most commercial operating systems available today don't provide any
   form of mobility support at the IP layer.

   Mobile IPv4 [Per2002] as a mobility management protocol is slowly
   gaining momentum and operators are implementing networks based on it
   - there is already a significant infrastructure in the deployment
   supporting the mobile IPv4.



1.2. Goals

   Goals of this specification are summarized below:

   o  To provide a network based mobility solution for IPv6 hosts

   o  IPv6 hosts doesn't implement whether IPv4 stack nor mobile IPv6


Premec, Damic            Expires Dec 19, 2006                  [Page 3]


Internet-Draft          IPv6 over Proxy MIPv4                  Jun 2006


   o  Mobility management is based on mobile IPv4

   o  Mobility management is handled completely within the network,
      without the involvement of the hosts

   o  IPv6 service for the hosts is provided exclusively by the home
      network. Access network doesn't need to support IPv6 at all.



1.3. Overview of the Solution

   When the access network detects an attachment of a new IPv6 device,
   the PMN (Proxy Mobile Node) will register the device with the HA
   using its own IPv4 care-of address. The IPv6 traffic of the MS will
   consequently be tunneled between the PMN and the HA in the IPv4
   tunnel. Tunnel end points are PMN itself and the HA.



                               IPv6
         MS---IPv6----PMN------over-----------HA---IPv6 network
                               IPv4

                        Figure 1 Deployment example



   The PMN is not processing IPv6 packets in any way besides tunneling
   them between the HA and the MS. Thus, from the perspective of the MS,
   the complete access network looks like a bridge, i.e. it appears to
   be a single link layer connecting the MS with its HA. The MS can not
   tell that it is not attached to its home link - in other words, it
   believes to be attached directly to the HA.

   When the MS moves to the new PMN, the new PMN will register its care-
   of address with the HA, thus redirecting the MS traffic to itself.



1.4. Advantages

   Advantages of the proposed solution are combination of advantages
   listed in [Tsi2006] and [Leu2006]. They are briefly summarized below:

   o  Mobility support for unmodified IPv6 hosts



Premec, Damic            Expires Dec 19, 2006                  [Page 4]


Internet-Draft          IPv6 over Proxy MIPv4                  Jun 2006


   o  Leverage the existing mobile IPv4 network infrastructure, allowing
      the MIPv4-based access network to provide mobility service to IPv6
      hosts

   o  Mobility management is handled completely within the network,
      without the involvement of the hosts

   o  Reduced radio link consumption: no MIP signaling over the air and
      no tunnel overhead over the air

   o  Network uses just a single mobility protocol to support both IPv4
      and IPv6 hosts (protection of investment and reduction of
      operating costs)



2. Operation

   We assume a mobile IPv4-based access network. This access network is
   connected to the router on the home network acting as a MIPv4 HA. The
   HA is a dual stack node and is also acting as a default router on its
   IPv6 link.

   We introduce a new entity which is executing mobile IPv4 procedures
   on behalf of the mobile node. We call this new entity a Proxy Mobile
   Node (PMN). The PMN resides in the access network and is located on
   the traffic path to the MS.

   The PMN is assumed to have direct link layer connectivity (from the
   perspective of the IP layer) with the MS. When the MS attaches to the
   network, in the course of link establishment it will be
   authenticated. During the authentication process, the access network
   will learn the NAI of the MS, and the NAI must be made available to
   the PMN. All these actions happen at the link layer, before any IP
   layer connectivity.



2.1. Initial Network Entry

   After the authentication and after the link layer connectivity is
   successfully established, the MS, being an IPv6 host, will send a
   Neighbor solicitation message on a newly established link to
   configure its link local address. The following figure illustrates
   the procedure in more detail:

   1. In this step the link is established and the MS is authenticated.
      The PMN SHALL learn the NAI of the MS in this step.

   2. The MS sends the Neighbor solicitation to configure its link local
      address.

Internet-Draft          IPv6 over Proxy MIPv4                  Jun 2006


   3. When the Neighbor solicitation arrives at PMN, the PMN MAY detect
      that this is an IPv6 packet. This MAY trigger the PMN to register
      with the HA. First, the PMN MUST acquire the IPv4 address which it
      will use as a care-of address for the MS. How exactly the PMN
      acquires the IPv4 care-of address is not defined in this
      specification, but typically the PMN may request the address from
      the DHCPv4 server, or it can maintain its own address pool.

   4. The PMN SHALL generate the MIPv4 Registration request using the
      CoA obtained in step 3 and NAI [Cal2002a] learned during the
      authentication. Further, the Registration request SHALL contain an
      IPv6 tunneling mode extension requesting the IPv6 operation mode,
      as defined in [Tsi2006]. The Registration request MAY also contain
      an IPv6 prefix extension [Tsi2006].

   5. The HA SHALL create the binding between the MS, identified by its
      NAI, and the CoA received in the Registration request. The HA
      SHALL include the IPv6 code extension [Tsi2006] as a confirmation
      that it supports tunneling of IPv6 traffic over MIPv4 tunnel. The
      code filed in the extension SHALL be set to 1 indicating that the
      traffic will be tunneled to the IPv4 CoA. When the PMN receives
      the Registration reply, it creates a binding between the newly
      established tunnel and the L2 link associated with the MS.

   6. Immediately after sending the Registration reply, the HA SHOULD
      send the Router advertisement over the newly established MIPv4
      tunnel. The Router advertisement is encapsulated and sent to the
      PMN. The inner header destination address is set to all-nodes-on-
      the-link address and the Router advertisement message contains the
      home link prefix in the prefix information option. The Router
      advertisement also controls which kind of address configuration
      the MS may use: stateless or stateful.

   7. The PMN SHALL decapsulate and deliver any packets it receives via
      the MIPv4 tunnel directly to the MS. In this step we see the
      delivery of the Router advertisement sent by the HA.

   8. After the MIPv4 tunnel is established, the PMN SHALL start
      delivering the uplink traffic to the HA. Here the Neighbor
      solicitation from step 2, which was delayed until the MIPv4 tunnel
      was set up, is tunneled to the HA.

Internet-Draft          IPv6 over Proxy MIPv4                  Jun 2006


   9. The arrival of a Neighbor solicitation message verifying the
      tentative address SHALL trigger the HA to perform proxy DAD on
      behalf of the MS [Joh2004]. Having successfully performed proxy
      DAD, the HA SHALL deliver any traffic on the home link destined to
      this address via the MIPv4 tunnel to the current location of the
      MS. Every time the MS configures an additional IPv6 address, the
      HA SHALL perform proxy DAD for this additional address and bind it
      to the MIPv4 tunnel associated with the MS.

   If the PMN is aware that the MS is an IPv6-only host, then the PMN
   MAY initiate the setup of the MIPv4 tunnel immediately after the link
   layer connection is successfully established. In other words, the
   step 1 in the figure above may be followed by the step 3. This has
   the advantage that the MIPv4 tunnel is setup in advance, before any
   IPv6 traffic arrives at the PMN. The benefit is that the delay caused
   by the tunnel setup is minimized. This is especially important
   because the tunnel setup delay may influence the DAD process.

   It is apparent from the discussion above that the IPv6 traffic is
   tunneled between the PMN and the HA. Thus the whole access network
   appears to the MS as a single link connected directly to its HA. The
   MS is effectively deceived into believing that it is attached to its
   home link.

   The MS MAY use either stateful or stateless methods to configure its
   home address. This specification doesn't mandate or prefer one method
   over another and is compatible with both methods. Important point is
   that whenever the MS configures an additional address, the HA SHALL
   perform the proxy DAD for it and add it to its binding cache.

2.2. Movement to a new PMN

   moves to a new link which is associated with the new PMN.

   1. In this step the MS changed its point of attachment to the
      network. The new link layer connection with the new PMN (nPMN) is
      established. It is assumed that during the link layer handover the
      old PMN (oPMN) transfers the MS related context to the new PMN.
      The context SHALL include at least the NAI and the current
      sequence number used in MIPv4 Registration request messages. It
      MAY also include any packets still buffered/arriving at the oPMN.
      The protocol for exchanging context between PMNs is out of scope

   5. When the HA receives a Registration request for a MS for which it
      already has a binding cache entry, the HA SHOULD send the
      Registration Revoke message to the previous mobility agent, i.e.
      to the oPMN. This will expedite the release of resources at the
      oPMN. The oPMN can safely remove all its resource associated with
      the PMN since it now knows that it will not receive any further
      traffic from the HA for this MS. The HA will perform steps 4. and
      5. simultaneously.

   6. The oPMN acknowledges to the HA the release of the MS related
      resources.

   From the message flow above, it is obvious that the MS itself is not
   involved in the handover at all. In fact, from the perspective of the
   MS nothing changed, the illusion that it is connected to its home
   link is still being maintained by the network despite the fact that
   the MS actually changed its point of attachment.



2.3. Address Lifetime

   Lifetime of the IPv6 address assigned to the MS and the binding
   lifetime held in the HA's MIPv4 context are not directly related to
   each other. PMN SHALL refresh the mobility binding before it expires.
   If the mobility binding ever expires, for whatever reason, both PMN
   and the HA SHALL release all resources related to that mobility
   binding. In case when the binding lifetime expires at the HA, the HA
   MAY send the Registration Revocation to the PMN, to insure that the
   PMN will also release its resources and that the state in both the HA
   and the PMN is in sync.

   The MS is expected to take care of the lifetime of its IPv6 address.
   The HA SHALL be aware of the lifetimes of the IPv6 addresses assigned
   to the MS. If the MS is allowed to autoconfigure [Tho1998] its IPv6
   address, then the MIPv4 binding lifetime SHALL be limited by the HA
   to be no more than the (remaining) lifetime of the prefix used for
   IPv6 address autoconfiguration. The HA MAY act as the DHCPv6 relay
   agent in order to learn the lifetimes of IPv6 addresses assigned by
   means of DHCPv6. If the IPv6 address of the MS ever expires, the HA
   SHALL stop defending it on the home link and SHALL remove it from its
   binding cache entry.

Internet-Draft          IPv6 over Proxy MIPv4                  Jun 2006


3. Home Agent Considerations

   The home agent MUST support Mobile IPv4 protocol [Per2002] and the
   following extensions defined in [Tsi2006]: IPv6 tunneling mode
   extension, IPv6 code extension and IPv6 prefix extension.

   Home agent is a dual stack router supporting also IPv6. The home
   agent MUST be configured with at least one 64-bit prefix which will
   serve as the home link prefix. On the interface(es) advertising the
   home link prefix, the HA provides the services of a default IPv6
   router on the link. It also has the role of an IPv6 home agent
   [Joh2004]: it MUST defend home address of the MS while it is away
   from home, it MUST intercept its traffic and it MUST tunnel it via
   the MIPv4 tunnel to the current location of the MS. When the HA
   tunnels the packet to the PMN, the destination address of the outer
   header is the registered IPv4 care-of address and the source address
   is the HA's IPv4 address. The inner packet is the unmodified IPv6
   datagram as captured on the home link.

   The HA MUST provide the Mobile IPv4 service [Per2002] on at least one
   interface which is connected to the IPv4 network.

   When the MS configures an additional IPv6 address, in order to verify
   its uniqueness it starts the DAD process by sending a Neighbor
   solicitation message to the solicited node multicast group. When the
   HA receives such a packet via the MIPv4 tunnel, it MUST not deliver
   it to the home link. Instead, the HA MUST perform proxy DAD on the
   home link for the address being verified. If the DAD is successful,
   the HA SHALL add the verified address to the binding cache entry for
   the MS and SHALL treat the newly configured IPv6 address as an
   additional home address of the MS. If the DAD process fails, the HA
   SHALL relay the received Neighbor advertisement to the MS via the
   MIPv4 tunnel.

   If the MS is allowed to autoconfigure its home address, then the HA
   SHALL perform the proxy DAD for the home address of the MS
   immediately after the DAD process for the link local address of the
   MS is successfully over. The home address to be defended is
   formulated by the HA using the home link prefix and the interface
   identifier part of the LLA. This is because the IPv6 host is not
   required to verify additionally configured addresses if they are
   based on the same interface identifier used by the one of the already
   verified addresses.

   The HA MAY, at its own discretion, disallow the MS from configuring
   and using a particular IPv6 address. When the HA receives the
   Neighbor solicitation message verifying the tentative address, it MAY

Internet-Draft          IPv6 over Proxy MIPv4                  Jun 2006


   reply to the MS with a Neighbor advertisement packet pretending that
   the address being verified is already in use on the home link. This
   will effectively block the MS from using the tentative address.

   When the HA receives the packet via the MIPv4 tunnel, it MAY check
   that the source IPv6 address of the inner packet is a legitimate
   address that the MS is allowed to use. If this is not the case, the
   HA SHALL discard the packet and SHALL terminate the mobility session
   by sending the Registration revocation to the PMN.

   The HA SHALL clear the on-link determination bit in prefix
   information, thus preventing the MS to attempt the direct
   communication with the correspondent nodes having the same prefix.

   The HA SHALL be aware of the address lifetime of the home address
   assigned to the MS. If the address lifetime expires, the HA SHALL
   remove the expired address from its binding cache entry.



4. Proxy Mobile Node Considerations

   When the PMN detects an IPv6-only MS on the link, the PMN SHALL
   register the MS with the HA by sending the MIPv4 Registration request
   message. The Registration request message shall contain the NAI of
   the MS and the IPv6 tunneling mode extension as defined in
   [Cal2002b].

   If there is no IPv6 code extension [Tsi2006] in the Registration
   response message or if the code value in the IPv6 code extension
   doesn't equal 1, the PMN SHALL not provide the MS with mobility
   service.

   The PMN SHALL decapsulate the packets received from the HA and SHALL
   deliver the inner IPv6 packets to the MS. The PMN SHALL generate the
   appropriate link layer header and prepend it to the IPv6 packets
   delivered to the MS.

   The PMN SHALL encapsulate the IPv6 packets received from the MS and
   SHALL send them to the HA via the established MIPv4 tunnel. The
   source address of the outer header is the registered IPv4 care-of
   address and the destination address is the HA's IPv4 address. The
   inner packet is the unmodified IPv6 datagram as received from the MS.

   For the MS traffic, the PMN is acting as a link layer bridge. In
   particular, the PMN SHALL never decrease the hop limit field in the
   IPv6 header nor will it change any other field in the IPv6 header.

Internet-Draft          IPv6 over Proxy MIPv4                  Jun 2006


   The PMN SHALL intercept Router advertisements sent by the HA and
   inspect them before relaying them to the MS. If the Router
   advertisement contains the source link layer address option, the PMN
   SHALL use the advertised link layer address as the source address
   when constructing the link layer header, provided that the underlying
   link layer technology makes use of such an address. The intercepted
   source LLA MAY be transferred during the handover to the new PMN as
   part of the MS context, and the new PMN SHOULD use the transferred
   link layer address when constructing the link layer header.

   The PMN SHALL protect all MIPv4 signaling messages with the MN-HA
   authentication extension.



5. Mobile Station Considerations

   Mobile station is a plain IPv6 host, and it does not have a Mobile IP
   stack. There are no additional requirements on the mobile station.



6. Foreign Agent Considerations

   Solution described in this document supports the use of unmodified
   foreign agents. To the FA, the PMN will appear as regular mobile
   node. However, the use of FA will add an additional layer of
   encapsulation.

   If the PMN chooses to register with the FA, the PMN will provide its
   IPv4 address as a care-of address and SHALL request the dynamic
   assignment of its home address by setting the home address field in
   Registration request to all zeros. The home address will be assigned
   by the HA in the Registration response message. The home address may
   be allocated from private address space and the FA may also implement
   the support for overlapping address spaces as described in [Leu2006].

   When the PMN has an uplink packet to send, it will first encapsulate
   it using the assigned IPv4 home address as the source address and the
   HA's IPv4 address as the destination address. Then it will deliver
   the encapsulated packet to the FA using either direct or encapsulated
   delivery style [Mon2001]. Before sending the packet to the HA, the FA
   will encapsulate the packet once again, using its CoA as a source
   address and HoA address as a destination address.

Internet-Draft          IPv6 over Proxy MIPv4                  Jun 2006


   Advantage of using the non-collocated CoA mode is that the number of
   publicly routable IPv4 addresses is minimized: only one is needed per
   FA instead of one per PMN. The disadvantage is that the FA will add
   another layer of encapsulation when tunneling back to the HA. This
   adds additional processing overhead and diminishes the MTU size.



7. Security Considerations

   The security considerations mentioned in [Leu2006] also apply to this
   specification.

   According to this specification, IPv6 Neighbor discovery messages are
   tunneled between the MS and the HA. A number of security concerns and
   threats related to neighbor discovery protocol are listed in the
   security considerations section of [Nar1998] and in the [Nik2004]. A
   misbehaving MS can launch exactly the same attacks as the malicious
   IPv6 host physically attached to its home link (wire), but not more.
   In the view of the author, this specification does not introduce any
   new threats related to ND.



8. IANA Considerations

   There are no IANA issues in this document.

   Forum as well as the drafts [Cal2002b], [Leu2006] and [Tsi2006].
