چکیده

This document describes the Handover Keying (HOKEY) re-authentication problem statement. The current Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) keying framework is not designed to support re-authentication and handovers without re-executing an EAP method. This often causes unacceptable latency in various mobile wireless environments. This document details the problem and defines design goals for a generic mechanism to reuse derived EAP keying material for handover. Clancy, et al. Informational [Page 1] RFC 5169 HOKEY Re-Auth PS March 2008 Table of

An Efficient and Secure Handover Protocol for IEEE 802.16m Networks

Mobile WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability Microwave Access) requires the re-authentication of mobile stations as they change from one base station to another. IEEE 802.16e uses the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) for authentication and key management. This requires about 1000 ms, therefore, it could not support mobile WiMAX applications such as video conference. In the present paper, we...

Managing Handover Authentication in Big-domain Wireless Environment

Mobility management is the key feature of wireless network. When the mobile node roams from the home network to the foreign network, the foreign network access server usually does not have the security material of the mobile node, and can not authenticate the mobile node by itself. Thus the three-party authentication is used, and the foreign network access server consults the home authenticatio...

Network Working Group Problem Statement and Requirements on a 3-party Key Distribution Protocol for Handover Keying

The HOKEY WG is developing solutions for optimizations as well as security key hierarchy specifications for handovers. The key derivation specifications all draw from a trust relationship that is created as a result of a "2-party" EAP authentication between a peer and a backend server, while distributing the resulting keys to third parties other than the peer and the backend server. This docume...

A handover security mechanism employing the Diffie-Hellman key exchange approach for the IEEE802.16e wireless networks

In this paper, we propose a handover authentication mechanism, called the handover key management and authentication scheme (HaKMA for short), which as a three-layer authentication architecture is a new version of our previous work, the Diffie-Hellman-PKDS-based authentication method (DiHam for short), improving its key generation flow and adding a handover authentication scheme to respectively...
