  1. Applicability Statement of NSIS Protocols in Mobile Environments (draft-ietf-nsis-applicability-mobility-signaling-05) Sung-Hyuck Lee, Seong-Ho Jeong, Hannes Tschofenig, Xiaoming Fu, Jukka Manner The 66th IETF meeting in Montreal, Canada July. 12, 2006

  2. Status of –05 version (I) • Closed issues since the Dallas meeting: • #8: Localized State Update • Advanced feature • Need to be discussed in a separated draft • Clarified issues: • Explicit Routes • In interaction with Mobile IP, the explicit routes in NSIS signaling do not happen • #6: CRN discovery and State Update on the IP-tunneling path • Separate signaling session for the tunneling path • Optimized tunnel signaling is required for mobility scenarios. • #9: Dead Peer Discovery • Failure by rerouting can be detected by routing modules, GIST, and QoS NSLP. • Pertinent to ‘#3: Invalid NR problem’ and ‘#11: Mobility Object’. • Link layer information hints (e.g., link layer trigger or NSIS signaling) The 66th IETF Montreal Meeting

  3. Status of –05 version (II) • Clarified issues (cont.): • #10: Multihoming-related issues • In load balancing scenarios, Path Type Identifier can classify the type of CRN (e.g., LB-CRN or HO-CRN). • Use of CRN Discovery flag bit • Prevent processing overhead. • Remaining issues to be resolved: • #3: Invalid NSIS Responder problem • Pertinent to ‘#9: Dead Peer Discovery’ and ‘#11: Mobility object’. • Some possible proposals (e.g., Mobility Object: handover_init (HI)). • #11: Mobility object • Pertinent to ping-pong type handover issues and #3 for correct operation. • Need to be discussed (new issues) • Key Exchange • When a handover happens, how to verify the signaling messages from (or to) the MN. The 66th IETF Montreal Meeting

  4. Clarification on #3: Invalid NSIS Responder problem (I) • Issues: • RESPONSE (or Refresh) message can notbe sent to the corresponding QNI (or QNE: e.g., AR) if QNR (e.g., an MN) performs handover. • Identification of the last node for mobility scenarios • Suggestion to protocols: • Use the link information hints (e.g., Handover_Init (HI) field of the Mobility object) to inform the current AR of a handover. • In this case, there are two approaches • The current AR may be a proxy for the MN (the last node) and it may be able to send RESPONSE messages in response to refresh (e.g., RESERVE) messages. • The current AR just forwards the NOTIFY message including the HI field toward CRN to prevent the NI from removing the NSIS state.

  6. Clarification on #10: Multihoming-related issues (I) • Description: • NSIS-aware nodes (e.g., MN, HA, CN, etc.) may be multihomed. • Also, multiple CRNs may be found for NSIS signaling in such multihomed environments. • The following questions arise: • Which CRN is the most appropriate node to do the State Update? • How should multiple CRNs differentiate the State Update for multihoming from the generic State Update? • How do NSIS-aware nodes (e.g., CRNs) authorize multiple flows with different flow identifiers for the same session? • In load balancing scenarios, CRN classification is required • Load Balancing (LB)-CRN for multiple flows or Handover (HO)-CRN for mobility. • Path type ID prevents CRN to unnecessarily perform State Update. The 66th IETF Montreal Meeting

  8. Open issue #11 Mobility Object • Description: • The Mobility object which has ‘Mobility_Event_Counter (MEC)’ and ‘Handover_Init (HI)’ can be used to solve ‘the fast or ping-pong typehandover’ and ‘the Invalid NR problem’, respectively. • The MEC field can inform the CRN of which incoming message is the latest. • RSN is not appropriate to resolve the ping-pong type handover • The HI field can explicitly inform AR (or CRN) that a handover is now initiated. • Question: • Does the mobility object need to be included in NxLP messages as an option? • Which primitives need to be used in order for NTLP (GIST) to notify QoS-NSLP of the mobility events? The 66th IETF Montreal Meeting

  9. Next Steps • Resolve remaining issues. • Identify and further clarify the following issues. • The security-related issues • If open issues and problems are detected  give guidance to protocol authors (before protocols are frozen). The 66th IETF Montreal Meeting
