Re: [DMM] WGLC #1 for draft-ietf-dmm-ondemand-mobility-01
Hi again, We added text to the draft indicating that the means of communicating required address types between the host and the network is outside the scope of the OnDemand draft. This is due to the fact that there is no RFC that we could refer to. When we complete the new RFCs that handle this communication, we will add reference to the OnDemand draft (hopefully it will become and RFC) to indicate how applications can specify the required type of the source IP address.

Yes, we will look for a place to add the clarification that these API extension rely on other protocol enhancements to communicate the address type request to the network. We cannot currently provide reference to the specific documents you gave in your examples because they are not RFCs (yet...).

Hi guys, Alper and I are in the process of compiling all the new comments we received in the last DMM face to face. We plan to issue a new version of the draft that, hopefully, clarifies the definitions and will provide a written response on the mailing list with further explanation and responses to all the comments.

Hi Behcet, As I was not there, what discussions was given. However, let me speak a few words. The specs. you referenced seems talking about need of different levels of mobility support, e.g. high/medium/low mobility and so on. Within the frame, I think having a proper level of mobility support based on IP session continuity and IP address reachability for an application, with the defined source IP address type request will make sense in the scope of mobility support in the specs. Besides, as you know, the spec. currently remains at 0.2 version, describing work items briefly and concisely. It doesn't constraint potentials for on-demand mobility.

I am hoping that someone can show me a protocol that exists in some form, maybe a draft, that implements fine-grained anchoring as required by Sustained IP Addresses. We will write sometime in the future is not acceptable, then this and similar drafts have to wait until that time comes. One implication of this is such a protocol is willing to cope with the host routes. Behcet On Wed, Apr 6, 2016 at 7:42 AM, <pierrick.se...@orange.com> wrote: > Hi Dany, > > I support this I-D.

Hi Dany, I support this I-D. I find the document very useful, and well written. We all agree that mobility management must be activated on purpose, it likely requires an enhanced source address selection framework where applications can obtain IP address with specific properties. By allowing applications to request prefix properties, this I-D is clearly a part of this framework. Maybe the document could be better by stressing clearly that it should be used together with solutions allowing the network to expose prefix properties to the host, for example with draft-korhonen-dmm-prefix-properties and draft-moses-dmm-dhcp-ondemand-mobility, which are somehow complementary...

Let's start afresh. I read you dhcp draft also. There is confusion in several levels. Your API draft talks about different applications on a MN needing different types of mobility services. Your DHCPv6 draft seems to give a solution on how a host can get different types of addresses/prefixes from DHCPv6 server, so is it for a host or an application? Prefix or address is assigned for an interface, that is another well known concept which your draft seem to completely ignore, i.e. a host may have multiple interfaces. DM>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Yes, I understand were the confusion might arise. The only entity in the host (or - mobile device) which uses DHCP is the DHCP client that is part of the TCP/IP stack. There may be several triggers to cause the DHCP client to request a source IP address: - When the mobile node initially attaches to a network. - When the mobile node moves to a different location and needs to refresh its source IP address. The On-Demand concept implies a new trigger: - When an application is launched, opens an IP Socket and requires a special type of source IP address which was not already assigned to the mobile node. So, it is the responsibility of the TCP/IP stack in the mobile node to figure out when it is required to initiate a DHCP transaction to serve the application's needs. Regarding multiple interface, you are correct once more. A mobile node may have multiple interfaces. When this occurs, the mobile node needs to send at least one DHCP request on each interface and the network assigns the source IP address to the interface from which the DHCP request had arrived. This is not new and the DHCP draft does not mention it because there are no changes or extensions required. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>DM Another concept is (as I already mentioned) topological correctness. If MN changes subnet, its previous prefix becomes topologically incorrect. Either it has to get a new prefix or there must be some system support, e.g. host routes. Of course another case is anchoring, like in 3GPP or in MIP. If you are anchored your prefix does not change. So you seem to ignore all these and instead introduce three types of addresses among which the sustained IP address/prefix is the key to your solution. Sustained address/prefix has this magical property: the IP address used at the beginning of the session remains usable despite the movement of the mobile host. and then you say access network anchoring, corresponding network anchoring, or some other solution can provide sustained address/prefixes. what does corresponding network anchoring mean? DM>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Corresponding network is a concept from Alper Yegin's draft - https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-yegin-dmm-cnet-homing/.

Hi Danny, I am removing all previous conversation because it all got mixed up. Let's start afresh. I read you dhcp draft also. There is confusion in several levels. Your API draft talks about different applications on a MN needing different types of mobility services. Your DHCPv6 draft seems to give a solution on how a host can get different types of addresses/prefixes from DHCPv6 server, so is it for a host or an application? Prefix or address is assigned for an interface, that is another well known concept which your draft seem to completely ignore, i.e. a host may have multiple interfaces. Another concept is (as I already mentioned) topological correctness. If MN changes subnet, its previous prefix becomes topologically incorrect. Either it has to get a new prefix or there must be some system support, e.g. host routes. Of course another case is anchoring, like in 3GPP or in MIP. If you are anchored your prefix does not change. So you seem to ignore all these and instead introduce three types of addresses among which the sustained IP address/prefix is the key to your solution. Sustained address/prefix has this magical property: the IP address used at the beginning of the session remains usable despite the movement of the mobile host. and then you say access network anchoring, corresponding network anchoring, or some other solution can provide sustained address/prefixes. what does corresponding network anchoring mean? I have a feeling that what your drafts are saying that right now we don't know but we anticipate in the future some ways will be found to make sustained IP addresses. Is this true? BTW, your DHCPv6 draft says that DHCPv6 server can give me a Sustained address/prefix but it does not say how it will be different than the fixed one? Suppose we want to develop an access network anchoring for sustained IP addresses. What about the needs for signaling? I have a feeling that a host running very many applications, like in today's smart phones, and so many smart phones in the system that is going to involve huge amount of signaling to get/release sustained address/prefixes, right? My conclusion from all of the above is that, I think what you propose sounds like a flashy idea but it seems to me that the complications involved in any solution is intractable. Unless you can show me otherwise. Regards, Behcet ___ dmm mailing list dmm@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dmm

Behcet: You are assigned an address, how do you know it is Sustained/fixed/nomadic IP address? DM>> Good question. Naturally, the network needs to be enhanced to support these new alternatives., need to be able to receive a specific request and to indicate to the mobile node what type of IP address (or prefix) it had allocated for it.

Please refer to draft-moses-dmm-dhcp-ondemand-mobility-02 which defines the enhancements to DHCPv6 for supporting the stating of the required IP address type.

Re: [DMM] WGLC #1 for draft-ietf-dmm-ondemand-mobility-01
Hi Danny, I was reading Dave's concerns. In my view the real problem in this draft is not with the nomadic IP address, actually Dave's concern was very syntactic. I have a semantic concern with the sustained IP address. What really is this? Sustained IP address is very important for this draft because everything is based on that. Reading Section 3.1, Sustained IP Address is kind of a banana, it has the taste that the beholder wants to get. It could be Fixed IP Address or nomadic. If Sustained IP Address gets me what I want, i.e. IP session continuity, why do I need anything else? It says in the draft, it may be configured by using access network anchoring, corresponding network anchoring, or something else, whatever that is? Which access network are you talking about? Is it good old 3GPP? Then, the answer is yes but then what type of new solution is this? I think what this draft is trying to say is if I am in 3GPP coverage area I use 3GPP anchoring, if I am in Wi-Fi coverage area, I use MIPv6. Is this what you had in mind? I do not recall under which category does this draft fall? Is it a maintenance type of draft? Or is it dmm type of draft?

Its intent was to notify the access network as to the type of IP session continuity it requires upon movement between LANs. The idea is to reduce the network support for session continuity (via PMIP, GTP, etc) when it is not needed. This draft is not dealing with devices migrating from one service provider to another as other issues should be handled in such scenario. "Local" is not good as it clashes with IPv6 Local addresses. The best term in my mind would be: "An IP address without any NW guarantee to continue to be valid after a potential host movement to a new LAN with a different IP prefix". So far, we could not come with a good name for such an address. May be "Guarantee-less"? Let's not forget: this is going to be used by application developers who do not necessarily fully understand how networks allocate IP addresses and maintain their validity. Regarding when On-Demand resolution occurs (Point 6): How about if we say: If applications want to influence the type of IP address their generated traffic will use, they must do so after creating a Socket and prior to generating the first transmitted packet.

You don't like "ephemeral" because it doesn't convey movement. But a question, does the host have to move for the principles of this document to apply? Couldn't a host get a new address (perhaps from a different wireless provider) without moving? Maybe "non-nomadic address" or "provider-local address" ? On point 6, yes I think you have to specify when the resolution occurs, since it affects which functions return error codes. I don't think the local address can be resolved before connect(), since the choice of local address may depend on the remote address to connect.

Re: [DMM] WGLC #1 for draft-ietf-dmm-ondemand-mobility-01
Hi Dave, Regarding the term "Nomadic" IP address: Actually, this draft is about enhancements to the Socket API that are useful in relation with movement of the mobile host. Its intent was to notify the access network as to the type of IP session continuity it requires upon movement between LANs. The idea is to reduce the network support for session continuity (via PMIP, GTP, etc) when it is not needed. This draft is not dealing with devices migrating from one service provider to another as other issues should be handled in such scenario. "Local" is not good as it clashes with IPv6 Local addresses. The best term in my mind would be: "An IP address without any NW guarantee to continue to be valid after a potential host movement to a new LAN with a different IP prefix". So far, we could not come with a good name for such an address. May be "Guarantee-less"? Let's not forget: this is going to be used by application developers who do not necessarily fully understand how networks allocate IP addresses and maintain their validity. Regarding when On-Demand resolution occurs (Point 6): How about if we say: If applications want to influence the type of IP address their generated traffic will use, they must do so after creating a Socket and prior to generating the first transmitted packet. We do not want to be too specific since it is not a user's manual. Does this sound reasonable to you?

I hope your helpful explanations below make it into the draft as well. On the "nomadic address" question, this name really feels wrong to me. The address doesn't move and hence isn't nomadic. You don't like "ephemeral" because it doesn't convey movement. But a question, does the host have to move for the principles of this document to apply? Couldn't a host get a new address (perhaps from a different wireless provider) without moving? Maybe "non-nomadic address" or "provider-local address" ? On point 6, yes I think you have to specify when the resolution occurs, since it affects which functions return error codes. I don't think the local address can be resolved before connect(), since the choice of local address may depend on the remote address to connect. E.g., connections to a peer on a local LAN subnet need to use an address on that interface. -Dave -Original Message- From: Moses, Danny [mailto:danny.mo...@intel.com] Sent: Thursday, February 18, 2016 9:13 AM To: Dave Dolson; dmm@ietf.org Subject: RE: [DMM] WGLC #1 for draft-ietf-dmm-ondemand-mobility-01 Hi Dave, Sorry for the very late response.

We prefer not to enable setting more than one flag since it add complexity. The application can check the returned code and act upon it. For example, if it uses setsockopt() with IPV6_REQUIRE_FIXED_IP and the call returns with an error code, it can re-attempt with IPV6_REQUEST_SUSTAINED_IP or IPV6_REQUEST_NOMADIC_IP (or without the flags - in case they are not supported by the network). So we are replacing the original text: More than one of these flags may be set on the same socket. In that case, an IP address compliant with any one of them shall be selected. TBD: Disallow this case? With: Only one flag of these flags may be set on the same socket. If an application attempts to set more than one flag, the most recent setting will be the one in effect.

(I haven't paid close attention to the list, so apologies if I'm raising old issues.) 1. Was the term "Nomadic" discussed? To me, a nomadic thing moves around, but in this draft, Nomadic IP addresses do not move around; they are replaced. "Ephemeral IP Address" might convey the idea more clearly. 2. I know this is really picky, but it wouldn't hurt to spell out "REQUIRE" in IPV6_REQ_FIXED_IP etc. - IPV6_REQUIRE_FIXED_IP in parallel with IPV6_PREFER_SRC_PUBLIC 3. There is a "TDB" in section 3.4. "TBD: Disallow this case?" This needs to be resolved. I suggest the most restrictive flag applies. 4. Must resolve "Application of this solution to IPv4 is TBD." - clearly the socket option is IPV6_something, but... - there is uncharted territory surrounding IPv4-mapped-IPv6 addresses (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4291#section-2.5.5.2 ), when socket option IPV6_V6ONLY is false. - I think the goal should be that the API *does* apply to IPv4 via IPv4-mapped-IPv6 addresses, while acknowledging that the operating system or network may not be able to fulfill the request. - I.e., permit the application to request constraints on IPv4, but also expect the application to try for a relaxed address if the initial request fails. - I see no need to support the API with AF_INET sockets, since AF_INET6 can be used with IPV6_ONLY=false and IPv4-mapped-IPv6 addresses. 5. The error codes are not clearly defined. What is the errno for failure of setsockopt() and others? 6. I'm unclear on when the on-demand resolution occurs? I don't think it can be done at the time of setsockopt(); as I understand it, the addresses are resolved later, at connect() or listen(). I'm not sure about this, but it should be explained. If the resolution is done at connect() time, is a new errno required? 7. Some socket interfaces are not mentioned. What about sendto(), sendmsg(), which are not connection-oriented? 8. In section 4.1, support for legacy applications does not really say how to support legacy applications. - my opinion: the default (lacking new socket options) should be to require Fixed for listen() and Sustained for connect(), and Nomadic/Ephemeral for non-connected datagrams. -Dave -Original Message- From: dmm [mailto:dmm-boun...@ietf.org] On Behalf Of Jouni Korhonen Sent: Tuesday, December 01, 2015 1:07 PM To: dmm@ietf.org; Jouni; Dapeng Liu Subject: [DMM] WGLC #1 for draft-ietf-dmm-ondemand-mobility-01 Folks, This mail starts two week WGLC for the I-D: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dmm-ondemand-mobility-01 The WGLC ends 12/15/2015.
