Abstract

   Applications differ with respect to whether they need session
   continuity and/or IP address reachability.  The network providing the
   same type of service to any mobile host and any application running
   on the host yields inefficiencies, as described in [RFC7333]. RFC 7333.  This
   document defines a new concep concept of enabling applications to influence
   the network's mobility services (session continuity and/or IP address
   reachability) on a per-Socket per-socket basis, and suggests extensions to the
   networking stack's API to accomodate accommodate this concept.

1.  Introduction

   In the context of Mobile IP [RFC5563][RFC6275][RFC5213][RFC5944], [RFC5563] [RFC6275] [RFC5213] [RFC5944],
   the following two attributes are defined for IP service provided to
   mobile hosts:

   -

   Session Continuity
      The ability to maintain an ongoing transport interaction by
      keeping the same local end-point endpoint IP address throughout the life-time lifetime
      of the IP socket despite the mobile host changing its point of
      attachment within the IP network topology.  The IP address of the
      host may change after closing the IP socket and before opening a
      new one, but that does not jeopardize the ability of applications
      using these IP sockets to work flawlessly.  Session continuity is
      essential for mobile hosts to maintain ongoing flows without any
      interruption.

   -

   IP Address Reachability
      The ability to maintain the same IP address for an extended period
      of time.  The IP address stays the same across independent
      sessions, and even in the absence of any session.  The IP address may
      be published in a long-term registry (e.g., DNS), DNS) and is made
      available for serving incoming (e.g., TCP) connections.  IP
      address reachability is essential for mobile hosts to use
      specific/published IP addresses.

   Mobile IP is designed to provide both session continuity and IP
   address reachability to mobile hosts.  Architectures utilizing using these
   protocols (e.g., 3GPP, 3GPP2, WIMAX) WiMAX) ensure that any mobile host
   attached to the a compliant networks network can enjoy these benefits.  Any
   application running on these mobile hosts is subjected to the same
   treatment with respect to session continuity and IP address
   reachability.

   Achieving session continuity and IP address reachability with Mobile
   IP incurs some cost.  Mobile IP protocol forces the mobile host's IP traffic
   to traverse a centrally-located centrally located router (Home Agent, HA), which incurs
   additional transmission latency and use of additional network
   resources, adds to the network CAPEX network's operating and OPEX, capital expenditures,
   and decreases the reliability of the network due to the introduction
   of a single point of failure [RFC7333].  Therefore, session
   continuity and IP address reachability SHOULD be provided only when
   necessary.

   In reality reality, not every application may need these benefits.  IP
   address reachability is required for applications running as servers
   (e.g., a web server running on the mobile host).  But, host), but a typical client
   application (e.g., web browser) does not necessarily require IP
   address reachability.  Similarly, session continuity is not required
   for all types of applications either.  Applications performing brief
   communication (e.g., text messaging) can survive without having
   session continuity support.

   Furthermore, when an application needs session continuity, it may be
   able to satisfy that need by using a solution above the IP layer,
   such as MPTCP Multipath TCP [RFC6824], SIP mobility [RFC3261], or an application-
   layer
   application-layer mobility solution.  These higher-layer solutions
   are not subject to the same issues that arise with the use of Mobile
   IP since they can utilize use the most direct data path between the end-points.
   endpoints.  But, if Mobile IP is being applied to the mobile host,
   the higher-
   layer higher-layer protocols are rendered useless because their
   operation is inhibited by Mobile IP.  Since Mobile IP ensures that
   the IP address of the mobile host remains fixed (despite the location
   and movement of the mobile host), the higher-layer protocols never
   detect the IP-
   layer IP-layer change and never engage in mobility management.

   This document proposes a solution for applications running on mobile
   hosts to indicate when establishing the network connection ('on
   demand') whether they need session continuity or IP address
   reachability.  The network protocol stack on the mobile host, in
   conjunction with the network infrastructure, provides the required
   type of service.  It is for the benefit of both the users and the
   network operators not to engage an extra level of service unless it
   is absolutely necessary.  It is expected that applications and
   networks compliant with this specification will utilize this solution
   to use network resources more efficiently.

3.  Solution

3.1.  High-level  High-Level Description

   Enabling applications to indicate their mobility service requirements
   e.g.
   (e.g., session continuity and/or IP address reachability, reachability) comprises
   the following steps:

   -

   1.  The application indicates to the network stack (local to the
       mobile host) the desired mobility service.

   -

   2.  The network stack assigns a source IP address based on an IP
       prefix with the desired services that was previously provided by
       the network.  If such an IP prefix is not available, the network
       stack performs the additional steps below.

   -

   3.  The network stack sends a request to the network for a new source
       IP prefix that is associated with the desired mobility service.

   -

   4.  The network responds with the suitable allocated source IP prefix
       (or responds with a failure indication).

   -

   5.  If the suitable source IP prefix was allocates, allocated, the network stack
       constructs a source IP address and provides it to the
       application.

   This document specifies the new address types associated with
   mobility services and details the interaction between the
   applications and the network stack steps.  It uses the Socket socket
   interface as an example for an API between applications and the
   network stack.  Other steps are outside the scope of this document.

3.2.  Types of IP Addresses

   Four types of IP addresses are defined with respect to mobility
   management.

   -
   management:

   Fixed IP Address address
      A Fixed IP address is an address with a guarantee guaranteed to be valid for a very
      long time, regardless of whether it is being used in any packet
      to/from the mobile host, or whether or not the mobile host is
      connected to the network, or whether it moves from one point-of- point of
      attachment to another (with a different IP prefix) while it is
      connected.

      Fixed IP addresses are required by applications that need both
      session continuity and IP address reachability.

   - Session-lasting

   Session-Lasting IP Address address
      A session-lasting Session-Lasting IP address is an address with a guarantee guaranteed to be valid throughout
      for the life-time lifetime of the socket(s) for which it was requested.  It
      is guaranteed to be valid even after the mobile host
   had has moved
      from one point-of-attachment point of attachment to another (with a different IP
      prefix).

   Session-lasting

      Session-Lasting IP addresses are required by applications that
      need session continuity but do not need IP address reachability.

   - Non-persistent

   Nonpersistent IP Address address
      This type of IP address has no guarantee is not guaranteed to exist after a mobile
      host moves from one point-of-attachment point of attachment to another, and another; therefore, no
      session continuity nor IP address reachability are provided.  The
      IP address is created from an IP prefix that is obtained from the
      serving IP gateway and is not maintained across gateway changes.
      In other words, the IP prefix may be released and replaced by a
      new one when the IP gateway changes due to the movement of the
      mobile host forcing the creation of a new source IP address with
      the updated allocated IP prefix.

   - Graceful Replacement

   Graceful-Replacement IP Address address
      In some cases, the network cannot guarantee the validity of the
      provided IP prefix throughout the duration of the opened socket,
      but can provide a limited graceful period of time in which both
      the original IP prefix and a new one are valid.  This enables the
      application some flexibility in the transition from the existing
      source IP address to the new one.

      This gracefulness is still better than the non-persistence nonpersistence type of
      address for applications that can handle a change in their source
      IP address but require that extra flexibility.

   Applications running as servers at a published IP address require a
   Fixed IP Address. address.  Long-standing applications (e.g., an SSH session)
   may also require this type of address.  Enterprise applications that
   connect to an enterprise network via virtual LAN require a Fixed IP
   Address.
   address.

   Applications with short-lived transient sessions (e.g., web browsers)
   can use Session-
   lasting Session-Lasting IP Addresses.  For example: Web browsers. addresses.

   Applications with very short sessions, such as DNS clients and
   instant messengers, can utilize Non-persistent use Nonpersistent IP Addresses. addresses.  Even though
   they could very well use Fixed or Session-lasting Session-Lasting IP
   Addresses, addresses, the
   transmission latency would be minimized when a Non-
   persistent Nonpersistent IP Addresses are
   address is used.

   Applications that can tolerate a short interruption in connectivity
   can use the Graceful-replacement Graceful-Replacement IP addresses.  For addresses, for example, a
   streaming client that has buffering capabilities.

3.3.  Granularity of Selection

   IP address type selection is made on a per-socket granularity.
   Different parts of the same application may have different needs.
   For example, the control-plane control plane of an application may require a Fixed
   IP Address address in order to stay reachable, whereas the data-plane data plane of the
   same application may be satisfied with a Session-lasting Session-Lasting IP Address. address.

3.4.  On Demand  On-Demand Nature

   At any point in time, a mobile host may have a combination of IP
   addresses configured.  Zero or more Fixed, zero or more Session-
   lasting,
   Lasting, zero or more Non-persistent Nonpersistent, and zero or more Graceful-
   Replacement IP addresses may be configured by the IP stack of the
   host.  The combination may be as a result of the host policy,
   application demand, or a mix of the two.

   When an application requires a specific type of IP address address, and such
   an address is not already configured on the host, the IP stack SHALL
   attempt to configure one.  For example, a host may not always have a
   Session-lasting
   Session-Lasting IP address available.  When an application requests
   one, the IP stack SHALL make an attempt to configure one by issuing a
   request to the network.  If the operation fails, the IP stack SHALL
   fail the associated socket request and return an error.  If
   successful, a Session-lasting Session-Lasting IP Address gets address is configured on the mobile
   host.  If another socket requests a Session-lasting Session-Lasting IP address at a
   later time, the same IP address may be served to that socket as well.
   When the last socket using the same configured IP address is closed,
   the IP address may be released released, or it may be kept for future applications
   requiring a Session-Lasting IP address that may be launched and require a Session-lasting IP
   address. in the
   future.

   In some cases cases, it might be preferable for the mobile host to request
   a new Session-lasting Session-Lasting IP address for a new opening of an IP socket
   (even though one was already assigned to the mobile host by the
   network and might be in use in a different, already active IP
   sockets).
   socket).  It is outside the scope of this specification to define
   criteria for choosing to use available addresses or choosing to
   request new ones.  It supports both alternatives (and any
   combination).

   It is outside the scope of this specification to define how the host
   requests a specific type of prefix and how the network indicates the
   type of prefix in its advertisement or in its reply to a request.

   The following are matters of policy, which may be dictated by the
   host itself, the network operator, or the system architecture
   standard:

   -

   *  The initial set of IP addresses configured on the host at boot
   time.

   -
      time

   *  Permission to grant various types of IP addresses to a requesting
   application.

   -
      application

   *  Determination of a default address type when an application does
      not make any explicit indication, explicitly indicate whether it already supports the required API or it is just
      a legacy application. application

4.  Backwards Compatibility Considerations

   Backwards compatibility support is REQUIRED by the following 3 three
   types of entities:

   -

   *  The Applications applications on the mobile host

   -

   *  The IP stack in the mobile host

   -

   *  The network infrastructure

4.1.  Applications

   Legacy applications that do not support the On-Demand functionality
   will use the legacy API and will not be able to take advantage of the
   On-Demand Mobility feature.

   Applications using the new On-Demand functionality should be aware
   that they may be executed in legacy environments that do not support
   it.  Such environments may include a legacy IP stack on the mobile
   host, legacy network infrastructure, or both.  In either case, the
   API will return an error code code, and the invoking applications application may just
   give up and use legacy calls.

4.2.  IP Stack in the Mobile Host

   New IP stacks (that implement On Demand On-Demand functionality) MUST continue
   to support all legacy operations.  If an application does not use On-
   Demand functionality, the IP stack MUST respond in a legacy manner.

   If the network infrastructure supports On-Demand functionality, the
   IP stack SHOULD follow the application request: If the application
   requests a specific address type, the stack SHOULD forward this
   request to the network.  If the application does not request an
   address type, the IP stack MUST NOT request an address type and leave
   it to type.
   Instead, the network's default behavior to network will choose the type of the allocated IP prefix.
   How the network selects the type of allocated IP prefix is outside
   the scope of this document.  If an IP prefix was already allocated to
   the host, the IP stack uses it and may not request a new one from the
   network.

4.3.  Network Infrastructure

   The network infrastructure may or may not support the On-Demand
   functionality.  How the IP stack on the host and the network
   infrastructure behave in case of a compatibility issue is outside the
   scope of this API specification.

4.4.  Merging this work with RFC5014 RFC 5014

   [RFC5014] defines new flags that may be used with setsockopt() to
   influence source IP address selection for a socket.  The list of
   flags include: include the following: source home address, care-of address,
   temporary address, public address CGA (Cryptographically Created Address)
   Address), and non-CGA.  When applications require session continuity
   service, they SHOULD NOT set the flags specified in [RFC5014].

   However, if an application erroneously performs a combination of (1)
   Use
   using setsockopt() to set a specific option (using one of the flags
   specified in [RFC5014]) and (2) Selects selecting a source IP address type,
   the IP stack will fulfill the request specified by (2) and ignore the
   flags set by (1).

5.  Security Considerations

   The different service types (session continuity types and address
   reachability) associated with the allocated IP address types, types may be
   associated with different costs.  The costs: the cost to the operator for
   enabling a type of service, and the cost to applications using a
   selected service.  A malicious application may use these to
   indirectly generate extra billing of a mobile subscriber, and/or
   impose costly services on the mobile operator.  When costly expensive
   services are limited, malicious applications may exhaust them,
   preventing other applications on the same mobile host from being able
   to use them.

   Mobile hosts that enables enable such service options, options should provide
   capabilities for ensuring that only authorized applications can use
   the costly expensive (or limited) service types.

   The ability to select service types requires the exchange of the
   association of source IP prefixes and their corresponding service
   types, between the mobile host and mobile network.  Exposing these
   associations may provide information to passive attackers even if the
   traffic that is used with these addressed addresses is encrypted.

   To avoid profiling an application according to the type of IP
   addresses,
   address, it is expected that prefixes provided by the mobile operator
   are associated to with various type types of addresses over time.  As a
   result, the type of address could not cannot be associated to with the prefix,
   making application profiling based on the type of address harder. more
   difficult.

   The application or the OS should ensure that IP addresses regularly
   change to limit IP tracking by a passive observer.  The application
   should regularly set the On Demand On-Demand flag.  The application should be
   able to ensure that session lasting Session-Lasting IP addresses are regularly
   changed by setting a lifetime lifetime, for example example, handled by the
   application.  In addition, the application should consider the use of graceful
   replacement
   Graceful-Replacement IP addresses.

   Similarly, the OS may also associated associate IP addresses with a lifetime.
   Upon receiving a request for a given type of IP address, after some
   time, the OS should request a new address to the network even if it
   already has one IP address available with the requested type.  This
   includes any type of IP address.  IP addresses of type graceful
   replacement Graceful-
   Replacement or non persistent nonpersistent should be regularly renewed by the OS.

   The lifetime of an IP address may be expressed in number of seconds
   or in number of bytes sent through this IP address.

Appendix A.  Conveying the Desired Address Type

   Following

   The following are some suggestions of possible extensions to the Socket
   socket API for enabling applications to convey their session
   continuity and address reachability requirements.

   [RFC5014] introduced the ability of applications to influence the
   source address selection with the IPV6_ADDR_PREFERENCE option at the
   IPPROTO_IPV6 level.  This option is used with setsockopt() and
   getsockopt() calls to set/get address selection preferences.

   One alternative is to extend the defintion definition of the
   IPV6_ADDR_REFERENCE
   opion option with flags that express the invoker's
   desire.  An "OnDeman" "OnDemand" field could contains contain one of the following
   values: FIXED_IP_ADDRESS, SESSION_LASTING_IP_ADDRESS, NON_PERSISTENT_IP_ADDRESS
   NON_PERSISTENT_IP_ADDRESS, or GRACEFUL_REPLACEMENT_IP_ADDRESS.

   Another alternative is to define a new Socket socket function used by the
   invoker to convey its desire.  This enables the implementation of two
   behaviors of Socket socket functions: The the existing "setsockotp()" setsockopt() is a
   function that returns after executing, and the new "setsc()" setsc() (Set
   Service Contionuity) Continuity) is a function that may initaite initiate a request for the
   desired service, and wait until the network responds with the
   allocated resources, before returning to the invoker.

   After obtaining an IP address with the desired behavior behavior, the
   application can call the bind() Socket socket function to associate that
   received IP address with the socket.
