2. Problem Statement • Existing mobility optimization mechanisms rely on signaling between access routers of different administrative domains • It is hard to assume an SA between access routers of different domains • There has been no solution for inter-domain handovers • Inter-domain handover can occur even for a mobile node with a single interface • Existing mobility optimization mechanisms do not deal with heterogeneous handovers in which authorization characteristics are different before and after handovers and thus a fresh authentication and authorization needs to be performed • Heterogeneous handover can occur even for a mobile node with a single interface • Existing mobility optimization mechanisms are tightly coupled with particular mobility management protocols • All those problems above need to be solved without sacrificing handover performance

3. Overview of Media-independent Pre-Authentication (MPA) • MPA is: • a mobile-assisted higher-layer authentication, authorization and handover scheme that is performed prior to establishing L2 connectivity to a network where mobile may move in near future • MPA provides a secure and seamless mobility optimization that works for • Inter-domain handover • Heterogeneous handover (single/multiple interface) • MPA works with any mobility management protocol • MIP(v4,v6), SIPMM, HIP, etc.

9. MPA Experimental Results

10. Conclusions • MPA attempts to address the issues of inter-domain handover and heterogeneous handover • MPA framework provides an optimized handover solution independent of mobility management protocol • Implementation results of both MIPv6 and SIP-based mobility management • Zero packet loss (with buffering) • L2 delay ~ 4ms • Jitter during handover (~ 20 – 50 ms) (with buffering) • Pre-authentication for PANA is being accepted as work item of PANA WG

11. Future Work • Network-initiated MPA • Performance comparison with other Fast Mobility management protocol • Integration of L2 security bootstrapping in the target network • Choose or define appropriate protocol set for each building block

12. Future Work (Contd.) • Do we need to solve the pre-authentication problem for inter-domain and heterogeneous handover? • Include MPA framework as part of MOBOPTS work item ?
