Welcome & Administrivia (5 minutes)

The Local Domain Name DHCPv6 Option

Glen Zorn

The draft has been submitted to the IESG for publication and is in Tim Polk’s queue.

 

EAP Extensions for EAP Re-authentication Protocol (ERP)

Qin Wu

 

     Some open issues remain. Revised after last meeting.

 

Issue 1: ERP with one ER server vs. ERP with multiple servers

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Qin thinks two ER servers is over-design. Case 4 on his slide is the problem.

Sebastien questions whether Case 3 exists; clarified.  Sebastien maintains that Case 4 is required because explicit bootstrapping cannot work with Case 3 at a time later than initial authentication -- key is signed by the home domain and cannot be verified by the local ER server.  Discussion taken to the list.

 

Issue 2:

-----------------------------------

Tom Taylor:

     Seems reasonable.

 

 

EAP Extensions for EAP Early Authentication Protocol (EEP)

·         draft-hao-hokey-eep-00

Hao Wang

 

   Goal: support inter-AAA-realm handover

     Qin Wu: already supported easily with other draft

     Presenter: I continue and you will see the differences

  

   Direct vs. indirect models:

Qin Wu:

Indirect is not interesting for IETF

 

Presenter:

I will show my idea and get feedback

      

   New model presented

Qin Wu:

Terminology issue

   

   First problem

Glen Zorn:

This model allows roaming between two networks that have no relationship with the

     home network ?  It is a bad idea and probably illegal

    

   Remarks

Glen Zorn:

Problem raised with trust relationship with home domain.

 

Lionel Morand:

All AAA servers have the info about the clients?

What is the relation with home domain?

 

       Sebastien Decugis:

Discussing authorization maybe does not belong to HOKEY

 

       Tom Taylor:

[Comment not recorded]

 

 

ERP Improvements

·        Sebastien Decougis

       Glen Zorn:

            Could we get rid of the distinction between rRk and DS-rRk?

            Assume that "implicit bootstrapping" always takes place.

            Derive the key the same way every time, send it back the same way every time.

Distinction makes no sense.

 

Sebastien:

     Doesn't know the local domain name to derive the DS-rRk.

 

Glen:

     Seems like a security issue if a remote party can use a key derived based on

     the home domain name

 

 

Qin:

     Need to have home and local because of the dependency on domain name (different issue)

 

On chart "Second change problem statement":

     Note that DS-rRK can only be derived by the EAP Server itself, since it is the only

     holder of the EMSK.  Not a question of collocated functions.

 

 

Handover Keying (HOKEY) Architecture Design

Tom Taylor

 

"logical"  i.e. "signaling" architecture

 

Lionel Morand:

     How does it fit with discussion about so-called "home ER server" ? 

 

Tom:

     Clarification is certainly required here, given the contents of previous presentations.

       

Tom:

     What is missing?

     

Qin Wu:

     Maybe not add new models like new EEP.

  

Lionel Morand:

     Rechartering of HOKEY was due to clarification requests.

     We need these clarifications, we should focus on it.

               

Sebastien Decugis:

     Keep the deployment scenarii as examples to help understanding (appendix)

     Add the message flow & timing, it might be useful.

            

Tom Taylor:

     OK, will try to do that.
