+
+1. Introduction
+
+ This document represents a summary of AAA protocol requirements for
+ network access. In creating this documents, inputs were taken from
+ documents produced by the NASREQ [3], ROAMOPS [2], and MOBILEIP [5]
+ working groups, as well as from TIA 45.6 [4]. This document
+ summarizes the requirements collected from those sources, separating
+ requirements for authentication, authorization and accounting.
+ Details on the requirements are available in the original documents.
+
+1.1. Requirements language
+
+ In this document, the key words "MAY", "MUST, "MUST NOT", "optional",
+ "recommended", "SHOULD", and "SHOULD NOT", are to be interpreted as
+ described in [1].
+
+ Please note that the requirements specified in this document are to
+ be used in evaluating AAA protocol submissions. As such, the
+ requirements language refers to capabilities of these protocols; the
+ protocol documents will specify whether these features are required,
+ recommended, or optional. For example, requiring that a protocol
+ support confidentiality is NOT the same thing as requiring that all
+ protocol traffic be encrypted.
+
+ A protocol submission is not compliant if it fails to satisfy one or
+ more of the MUST or MUST NOT requirements for the capabilities that
+ it implements. A protocol submission that satisfies all the MUST,
+ MUST NOT, SHOULD and SHOULD NOT requirements for its capabilities is
+ said to be "unconditionally compliant"; one that satisfies all the
+ MUST and MUST NOT requirements but not all the SHOULD or SHOULD NOT
+ requirements for its protocols is said to be "conditionally
+ compliant."

+
+1.2. Terminology
+
+ Accounting
+ The act of collecting information on resource usage for the
+ purpose of trend analysis, auditing, billing, or cost
+ allocation.
+
+ Administrative Domain
+ An internet, or a collection of networks, computers, and
+ databases under a common administration. Computer entities
+ operating in a common administration may be assumed to
+ share administratively created security associations.
+
+ Attendant A node designed to provide the service interface between a
+ client and the local domain.
+
+ Authentication
+ The act of verifying a claimed identity, in the form of a
+ pre-existing label from a mutually known name space, as the
+ originator of a message (message authentication) or as the
+ end-point of a channel (entity authentication).
+
+ Authorization
+ The act of determining if a particular right, such as
+ access to some resource, can be granted to the presenter of
+ a particular credential.
+
+ Billing The act of preparing an invoice.
+
+ Broker A Broker is an entity that is in a different administrative
+ domain from both the home AAA server and the local ISP, and
+ which provides services, such as facilitating payments
+ between the local ISP and home administrative entities.
+ There are two different types of brokers; proxy and
+ routing.
+
+ Client A node wishing to obtain service from an attendant within
+ an administrative domain.
+
+ End-to-End
+ End-to-End is the security model that requires that
+ security information be able to traverse, and be validated
+ even when an AAA message is processed by intermediate nodes
+ such as proxies, brokers, etc.

+
+
+ Foreign Domain
+ An administrative domain, visited by a Mobile IP client,
+ and containing the AAA infrastructure needed to carry out
+ the necessary operations enabling Mobile IP registrations.
+ From the point of view of the foreign agent, the foreign
+ domain is the local domain.
+
+ Home Domain
+ An administrative domain, containing the network whose
+ prefix matches that of a mobile node's home address, and
+ containing the AAA infrastructure needed to carry out the
+ necessary operations enabling Mobile IP registrations.
+ From the point of view of the home agent, the home domain
+ is the local domain.
+
+ Hop-by-hop
+ Hop-by-hop is the security model that requires that each
+ direct set of peers in a proxy network share a security
+ association, and the security information does not traverse
+ a AAA entity.
+
+ Inter-domain Accounting
+ Inter-domain accounting is the collection of information on
+ resource usage of an entity within an administrative
+ domain, for use within another administrative domain. In
+ inter-domain accounting, accounting packets and session
+ records will typically cross administrative boundaries.
+
+ Intra-domain Accounting
+ Intra-domain accounting is the collection of information on
+ resource within an administrative domain, for use within
+ that domain. In intra-domain accounting, accounting
+ packets and session records typically do not cross
+ administrative boundaries.
+
+ Local Domain
+ An administrative domain containing the AAA infrastructure
+ of immediate interest to a Mobile IP client when it is away
+ from home.
+
+ Proxy A AAA proxy is an entity that acts as both a client and a
+ server. When a request is received from a client, the
+ proxy acts as a AAA server. When the same request needs to
+ be forwarded to another AAA entity, the proxy acts as a AAA
+ client.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+Aboba, et al. Informational [Page 4]
+
+RFC 2989 Network Access AAA Evaluation Criteria November 2000
+
+
+ Local Proxy
+ A Local Proxy is a AAA server that satisfies the definition
+ of a Proxy, and exists within the same administrative
+ domain as the network device (e.g., NAS) that issued the
+ AAA request. Typically, a local proxy will enforce local
+ policies prior to forwarding responses to the network
+ devices, and are generally used to multiplex AAA messages
+ from a large number of network devices.
+
+ Network Access Identifier
+ The Network Access Identifier (NAI) is the userID submitted
+ by the client during network access authentication. In
+ roaming, the purpose of the NAI is to identify the user as
+ well as to assist in the routing of the authentication
+ request. The NAI may not necessarily be the same as the
+ user's e-mail address or the user-ID submitted in an
+ application layer authentication.
+
+ Routing Broker
+ A Routing Broker is a AAA entity that satisfies the
+ definition of a Broker, but is NOT in the transmission path
+ of AAA messages between the local ISP and the home domain's
+ AAA servers. When a request is received by a Routing
+ Broker, information is returned to the AAA requester that
+ includes the information necessary for it to be able to
+ contact the Home AAA server directly. Certain
+ organizations providing Routing Broker services MAY also
+ act as a Certificate Authority, allowing the Routing Broker
+ to return the certificates necessary for the local ISP and
+ the home AAA servers to communicate securely.
+
+ Non-Proxy Broker
+ A Routing Broker is occasionally referred to as a Non-Proxy
+ Broker.
+
+ Proxy Broker
+ A Proxy Broker is a AAA entity that satisfies the
+ definition of a Broker, and acts as a Transparent Proxy by
+ acting as the forwarding agent for all AAA messages between
+ the local ISP and the home domain's AAA servers.
+
+ Real-time Accounting
+ Real-time accounting involves the processing of information
+ on resource usage within a defined time window. Time
+ constraints are typically imposed in order to limit
+ financial risk.
+
+
+
+
+
+Aboba, et al. Informational [Page 5]
+
+RFC 2989 Network Access AAA Evaluation Criteria November 2000
+
+
+ Roaming Capability
+ Roaming capability can be loosely defined as the ability to
+ use any one of multiple Internet service providers (ISPs),
+ while maintaining a formal, customer-vendor relationship
+ with only one. Examples of cases where roaming capability
+ might be required include ISP "confederations" and ISP-
+ provided corporate network access support.
+
+ Session record
+ A session record represents a summary of the resource
+ consumption of a user over the entire session. Accounting
+ gateways creating the session record may do so by
+ processing interim accounting events.
+
+ Transparent Proxy
+ A Transparent Proxy is a AAA server that satisfies the
+ definition of a Proxy, but does not enforce any local
+ policies (meaning that it does not add, delete or modify
+ attributes or modify information within messages it
+ forwards).
+
+2. Requirements Summary
+
+ The AAA protocol evaluation criteria for network access are
+ summarized below. For details on the requirements, please consult
+ the documents referenced in the footnotes.

+
+RFC 2989 Network Access AAA Evaluation Criteria November 2000
+
+
+ Clarifications
+
+ [a] The AAA protocol must be capable of supporting millions of users
+ and tens of thousands of simultaneous requests. The AAA
+ architecture and protocol MUST be capable of supporting tens of
+ thousands of devices, AAA servers, proxies and brokers.
+
+ [b] In the event of failure to communicate with a given server, the
+ protocol must provide a mechanism to change service to another
+ backup or secondary server.
+
+ [c] This requirement refers to the ability to support mutual
+ authentication between the AAA client and server.
+
+ [d] The AAA protocol requires authentication, integrity protection
+ and confidentiality at the transmission layer. This security
+ model is also referred to as hop-by-hop security, whereas the
+ security is established between two communicating peers. All of
+ the security is removed when the AAA message is processed by a
+ receiving AAA entity.
+
+ [e] The AAA protocol requires confidentiality at the object level,
+ where an object consists of one or more attributes. Object
+ level confidentiality implies that only the target AAA entity
+ for whom the data is ultimately destined may decrypt the data,
+ regardless of the fact that the message may traverse one or more
+ intermediate AAA entities (e.g., proxies, brokers).
+
+ [f] The AAA protocol requires authentication and integrity
+ protection at the object level, which consists of one or more
+ attributes. Object level authentication must be persistent
+ across one or more intermediate AAA entity (e.g., proxy, broker,
+ etc), meaning that any AAA entity in a proxy chain may verify
+ the authentication. This implies that data that is covered by
+ object level security CANNOT be modified by intermediate
+ servers.
+
+ [g] The AAA protocol MUST be capable of transporting certificates.
+ This requirement is intended as an optimization, in lieu of
+ requiring that an out-of-band protocol be used to fetch
+ certificates.
+
+ [h] This requirement refers to resilience against packet loss,
+ including:
+
+ 1. Hop-by-hop retransmission and fail-over so that reliability
+ does not solely depend on single hop transport
+ retransmission.
+
+
+
+Aboba, et al. Informational [Page 9]
+
+RFC 2989 Network Access AAA Evaluation Criteria November 2000
+
+
+ 2. Control of the retransmission mechanism by the AAA
+ application.
+ 3. Acknowledgment by the transport that a message was delivered
+ successfully, separate from message semantics or syntax
+ evaluation.
+ 5. Piggy-backing of acknowledgments in AAA messages.
+ 6. Timely delivery of AAA responses.
+
+ [i] In the Mobile IP AAA architecture, brokers can be in the
+ forwarding path, in which case they act as transparent proxies
+ (proxy brokers). Alternatively, it is also possible to conceive
+ of brokers operating as certifying authorities outside of the
+ forwarding path (routing brokers).
+
+ [j] An auditable process is one in which it is possible to
+ definitively determine what actions have been performed on AAA
+ packets as they travel from the home AAA server to the network
+ device and back.
+
+ [k] The AAA protocol MUST allow communication to be secured.
+ However, the AAA protocol MUST also allow an underlying security
+ service (e.g., IP Security) to be used. When the latter is
+ used, the former MUST NOT be required.
+
+ [l] The AAA protocol MUST be extensible by third parties (e.g.,
+ other IETF Working Groups), in order to define attributes that
+ are specific to the service being defined. This requirement
+ simply means that the AAA protocol MUST allow groups other than
+ the AAA WG to define standard attributes.

+
+
+
+
+Aboba, et al. Informational [Page 11]
+
+RFC 2989 Network Access AAA Evaluation Criteria November 2000
+
+
+ Clarifications
+
+ [a] The AAA protocol MUST allow the use of Network Access
+ Identifiers (NAI) [8] to identify users and/or devices.
+
+ [b] The AAA protocol MUST allow CHAP [20] authentication information
+ to be transported. This is commonly used by Network Access
+ Servers that request authentication of a PPP user.
+
+ [c] The AAA protocol MUST allow for Extensible Authentication
+ Protocol (EAP) [14] payload to be transported. Since some EAP
+ authentication mechanisms require more than one round trip, the
+ AAA protocol must allow for such authentication mechanisms to be
+ used. The actual EAP authentication mechanism negotiated MUST
+ be transparent to the AAA protocol. When EAP is used,
+ authentication typically occurs between the user being
+ authenticated and his/her home AAA server.
+
+ [d] While PAP is deprecated, it is still in widespread use for its
+ original intended purpose, which is support of clear-text
+ passwords. As a result, a AAA protocol will need to be able to
+ securely transport clear-text passwords. This includes
+ providing for confidentiality of clear-text passwords traveling
+ over the wire, as well as protecting against disclosure of
+ clear-text passwords to proxies in the forwarding path.
+
+ [e] The AAA protocol MUST allow for a user to be re-authenticated
+ on-demand. The protocol MUST allow for this event to be
+ triggered by either the user, access device (AAA client), or the
+ home or visited AAA server.
+
+ [f] The AAA protocol MUST NOT require that credentials of the user
+ be provided during authorization. The AAA protocol supports
+ authorization by identification or assertion only.

+
+
+ Key
+ M = MUST
+ S = SHOULD
+ O = MAY
+ N = MUST NOT
+ B = SHOULD NOT
+
+ Clarifications
+
+ [a] The AAA protocol MUST allow a server to provide a static or
+ dynamic address during the authorization phase of a user and/or
+ device. The address assigned MUST be either of type IPv4 or
+ IPv6. If both the client AND the server are aware of a pre-
+ configured address, then it is considered static. Anything else
+ is dynamic.
+
+ [b] This requirement refers to the ability of a new AAA protocol be
+ sufficiently compatible with the large installed base of
+ attributes for existing approaches (RADIUS), such that a server
+ implementation could speak both protocols, or translate between
+ them.
+
+ [c] This requirement refers to the ability of a proxy broker to deny
+ access without forwarding the access request to the AAA server,
+ or to deny access after receiving an access accept from the AAA
+ server.
+
+ [d] This requirement refers to the ability of the AAA client or
+ server to trigger re-authorization, or to the ability of the
+ server to send updated authorization information to the device,
+ such as "stop service." Authorization can allow for a time
+ period, then additional authorization can be sought to continue.
+ A server can initially authorize a user to connect and receive
+ services, but later decide the user is no longer allowed use of
+ the service, for example after N minutes. Authorizations can
+ have a time limit. Re-authorization does not necessarily imply
+ re-authentication.
+
+ [e] This requirement refers to the ability to of the protocol to
+ describe access operational limitations and authorization
+ restrictions to usage to the NAS which includes (but is not
+ limited to):
+
+ 1. Session expirations and Idle Timeouts
+ 2. Packet filters
+ 3. Static routes
+ 4. QoS parameters
+
+
+
+
+Aboba, et al. Informational [Page 14]
+
+RFC 2989 Network Access AAA Evaluation Criteria November 2000
+
+
+ [f] This requirement refers to the ability of the NAS to use the AAA
+ server to manage resource allocation state. This capability can
+ assist with, but it is not synonymous with, simultaneous user
+ login control, port usage limitations, or IP address pooling.
+
+ The design must provide for recovery from data loss due to a
+ variety of faults, including NAS and AAA server reboots, and
+ NAS/AAA server communication outages, and MUST be independent of
+ the accounting stream. The granularity of the recovery of state
+ information after an outage may be on the order of a fraction of
+ a minute. In order to provide for state recovery, explicit
+ session/resource status and update and disconnect messages will
+ be required.
+
+ Because of potential multi-domain issues, only systems that
+ allocate or use a resource should track its state.
+
+ [g] This requirement refers to the ability of the AAA server to
+ request the NAS to disconnect an active session for
+ authorization policy reasons.

+
+ Key
+ M = MUST
+ S = SHOULD
+ O = MAY
+ N = MUST NOT
+ B = SHOULD NOT
+
+ Clarifications
+
+ [a] This requirement may be loosely defined as reporting
+ synchronously with events. Typically the time window is on the
+ order of seconds, not milliseconds.
+
+ [b] The AAA protocol's Accounting data format MUST NOT be bloated,
+ imposing a large overhead for one or more accounting data
+ elements.
+
+ [c] This requirement refers to the ability to buffer or store
+ multiple accounting records, and send them together at some
+ later time.
+
+ [d] This is an application layer acknowledgment. This is sent when
+ the receiving server is willing to take responsibility for the
+ message data.
+
+ [e] This requirement refers to the ability to reflect the time of
+ occurrence of events such as log-on, logoff, authentication,
+ authorization and interim accounting. It also implies the
+ ability to provide for unambiguous time-stamps.
+
+ [f] This requirement refers to the ability to account for dynamic
+ authentication and authorization. To support this, there can be
+ multiple accounting records for a single session.
+
+2.5. Unique Mobile IP requirements

+
+ Clarifications
+
+ [a] A firewall friendly protocol is one which is designed to
+ accommodate a firewall acting as a proxy. For example, this
+ would permit a Home Agent AAA server situated behind a firewall
+ to be reachable from the Internet for the purposes of providing
+ AAA services to a Mobile IP Foreign Agent.
