Yes, the example seems to be buggy when you look at it closely. I guess
it is unintentional. The intent is to do a base64 encoding which should
result in a string of length a multiple of 4 characters. I'm copying the
author Aki Niemi in case he has any comments.

Subhash, 
        I have one more problem. If you see RFC 3310, it mentions that
nonce sent by server is base64 encoded. RFC 3310 gives some example of
nonce value, which does not seems to be base64 encoded correctly. I am
taking this conclusion because base64 encoded values must be multiple of
4 characters whereas examples in RFC3310 are not. 

        Can you please let me know why it is so. 

Thanks 
Harish

Hi Harish,
                Take a look at the 35 series (Security Algorithms) of
3GPP
Technical Specifications for details on these algorithms.

implementation


Hi All,
       I am implementing AKA (Authentication and Key agreement for SIP 
client. I was going through 3GPP TS 33.102 V4.4.0. It is mentioned in
this 
document that SIP client calculates MAC and RES using f1 and f2. where
f1 
and f2 are message authentication functions for calculating MAC and RES.
I 
tried to find what these functions are. So far I did not find any 
information on it.

       Please help me and let me know what are these functions.


Thanks in advance.
Harish
