As you know, there were some proposals for MIP6 bootstrapping similar to this,
deriving keys from network access authentication for MIPv6 bootstrapping. These
proposals have not been accepted because there were strong suggestions to keep
authentication procedures for network access services and mobility services
separate. In his review of the MIP6 bootstrapping PS document, Sam mentioned
again that these two authentications must be fully separated.
Since I originally proposed this approach for MIP6, I am wondering why you
think this should be acceptable for HMIP. Is there any real difference in the
scenario in your opinion?
