Title : Securing MIPv6 Binding Updates Using Address Based
Keys (ABKs)
Author(s) : S. Okazaki et al.
Filename : draft-okazaki-mobileip-abk-01.txt

This document outlines a method for authenticating and authorizing
Mobile IPv6 [MIPv6] Binding Updates between a Correspondent Node and
a Mobile Node where there exists no pre-established direct or
indirect security relationship between those two entities. The
method uses a new security technique called Address Based Keys.
Address Based Keys are an alternative to other cryptographic address
mechanisms for optimizing Binding Update security to avoid the need
for Return Routability checks on each binding update. Address Based
Keys use some mathematical results in identity based cryptosystems
that have been known to cryptographers for some time, but have not
been widely discussed in the network security community.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
