3G CDMA AAA Function Yingchun Xu 3COM 3Com Confidential Proprietary
3G CDMA AAA Requirements • Mobile Node Authentication in Foreign Network • Essential for Billing • Mobile Node Authentication in Home Agent • Protects User Data Hijacking • Quick Mobile Node Handoff Authentication • Reduces handoff data loss/delay • Roaming Support • Easier Mobile Node Provision • Packet Data Accounting 3Com Confidential Proprietary
Mobile IP AAA Servers • RADIUS • Deployed in Dial-in Access Network • Simple and Stateless Operation • IETF RFC 2138 and RFC 2139 • Limited Support of 3G AAA Requirements • DIAMETER • IETF Draft • Super set of RADIUS • Supports 3G AAA Requirements • RADIUS Accounting + PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) • Flexible • Requires lots of computation • IETF Draft 3Com Confidential Proprietary
3Com Recommendation • RADIUS in Version 1 • PKI+RADIUS extension or DIAMETER in Version 2 3Com Confidential Proprietary
Reasons • RADIUS is simple. • RADIUS has been deployed in Dial-in service for awhile. • RADIUS works but with limited Mobile IP and roaming support. • For example, it does not support dynamic key distribution. Keys are required to be statically configured. • Proxy function requires static configuration. There is no protocol support for dynamic resolution of AAA server. • DIAMETER and RADIUS extension + PKI are not mature. It will take some time to settle down. • DIAMETER is in IETF draft state. We don't want to build a AAA used only for CDMA. • We need to support ISPs which have deployed RADIUS as Home AAA. 3Com Confidential Proprietary
What we get with RADIUS • Packet Accounting: fully supports CDG specified accounting parameters. • Mobile IP Foreign Agent Challenge/Response • Required to build trust relationship for billing. • Dynamic Home Address Assignment feature from DIAMETER can be easily implemented in Home Agent. • Home Agent manages and assigns temporary Home Address. • Roaming support by static configuration. • Mobile node authentication through static configuration of shared key between mobile nodes and its Home Agents. 3Com Confidential Proprietary
What we get with DIAMETER • Foreign Agent Challenge/Response. • Dynamic Key distribution for temporary Mobile IP registration authentication. • Dynamic resolution of proxy AAA server. • Packet Data Accounting. • Dynamic Home Address Assignment. • First Time Mobile IP Registration through DIAMETER. 3Com Confidential Proprietary
