A protocol is needed to carry authentication methods between the A protocol is needed to carry authentication methods between the
client and the access network. client and the access network.
Currently there is no standard network-layer solution for Scope of this work is identified as designing a network layer
authenticating clients for network access. Appendix A of [RFC4058]
describes the problem statement that led to the development of PANA.
Scope of this work is identified as designing a link-layer agnostic
transport for network access authentication methods. The Extensible transport for network access authentication methods. The Extensible
Authentication Protocol (EAP) [RFC3748] provides such authentication Authentication Protocol (EAP) [RFC3748] provides such authentication
methods. In other words, PANA will carry EAP which can carry various methods. In other words, PANA will carry EAP which can carry various
authentication methods. By the virtue of enabling transport of EAP authentication methods. By the virtue of enabling transport of EAP
above IP, any authentication method that can be carried as an EAP above IP, any authentication method that can be carried as an EAP
method is made available to PANA and hence to any link-layer method is made available to PANA and hence to any link-layer
technology. There is a clear division of labor between PANA (an EAP technology. There is a clear division of labor between PANA (an EAP
lower layer), EAP and EAP methods as described in [RFC3748]. lower layer), EAP and EAP methods as described in [RFC3748].

These have been essential in defining the requirements [RFC4058] on [RFC4016]. These have been essential in defining the requirements

There are components that are part of a complete secure network There are components that are part of a complete secure network
access solution but are outside of the PANA protocol specification, access solution but are outside of the PANA protocol specification,
including IP address configuration, authentication method choice, including authentication method choice, data traffic protection,
filter rule installation, data traffic protection and PAA-EP PAA-EP protocol, and PAA discovery. PANA authentication output is

4.3. Discovery and Handshake Phase 4.3. Handshake Phase
When the PaC knows the IP address of the PAA, it can send a unicast
PANA-PAA-Discover message and initiate the PANA exchange. In other
cases, the PaC MUST rely on dynamic discovery methods, such as
multicast-based and a traffic-driven discovery.
Multicast-based Discovery:
The PaCs and PAAs MUST implement multicast-based discovery where
the PaC sends a PANA-PAA-Discover message to a well-known
administratively scoped multicast address (To Be Assigned by IANA)
and UDP port (To Be Assigned by IANA).
The network administrator MUST configure the multicast scope such
that the discovery messages can reach only the designated PAA(s).
In case the PAA(s) is on the same link as the PaC, the
administratively scoped multicast messages MUST not be forwarded
by the routers. Details of scope configuration are discussed in
[RFC2365].
The PAA(s) that receive the discovery message MUST respond with a The handshake phase can be initiated by either the PaC or the PAA.

same session identifier MUST be carried in the subsequent messages
exchanged between the PAA and PaC throughout the session.

authentication and authorization result does not depend on which PAA
is chosen by the PaC. By default the PaC MAY choose the PAA that
sent the first PANA-Start-Request message.
A PANA-Start-Request message MAY carry a Cookie AVP that contains a
random value generated by the PAA. The random value is referred to
as a cookie. The cookie is used for preventing the PAA from resource
consumption DoS attacks by blind attackers which bombard the PAA with
PANA-PAA-Discover messages. By relying on a cookie mechanism the PAA
can avoid per-PaC state creation until after the PaC can produce the
same cookie in its PANA-Start-Answer message. In order to do that,
the cookie MUST be computed in such a way that it does not require
any per-session state maintenance on the PAA in order to verify the
cookie returned in the PANA-Start-Answer message. The PAA discovery
that takes advantage of cookies is called "stateless PAA discovery".
The exact algorithms and syntax used by the PAA to generate cookies
does not affect interoperability and hence is not specified here.
Additionally, the PAA MAY limit the rate it processes incoming PANA-
PAA-Discover messages.
When the PaC sends a PANA-Start-Answer message in response to a PANA-
Start-Request containing a Cookie AVP, the answer MUST contain a
Cookie AVP with the cookie value copied from the request.
When the PAA receives the PANA-Start-Answer message from the PaC, it
verifies the cookie. The cookie is considered as valid if the
received cookie matches the send cookie. If the match is verified,
the protocol enters the authentication and authorization phase.
Otherwise, the PAA MUST silently discard the received message.
The initial EAP Request message MAY be optionally carried by the
PANA-Start-Request (as opposed to by a later PANA-Auth-Request)
message in order to reduce the number of round-trips. This
optimization SHOULD NOT be used if the PAA discovery is desired to be
stateless since transmission of an EAP Request message creates a
state at EAP layer. See [RFC4137] for more information on the EAP
state machine and the allocation of state information in the
respective protocol steps.
A Protection-Capability AVP, an Algorithm AVP and a Post-PANA-
Address-Configuration (PPAC) AVP MAY be included in the PANA-Start-
Request in order to indicate required and available capabilities for
the network access. These AVPs MAY be used by the PaC for assessing
the capability match even before the authentication takes place.
Since these AVPs are provided during the insecure discovery and
handshake phase, there are certain security risks involved in using
the provided information. See Section 11 for further discussion on
this.
If the initial EAP Request message is carried in the PANA-Start-
Request message, an EAP Response message MUST be carried in the PANA-
Start-Answer message returned to the PAA.

Request message after the first derivation of keys in the session.
The PANA-Bind-Request and the PANA-Bind-Answer message exchange is
also used for binding device identifiers of the PaC and EP(s) to the
PANA SA. To achieve this, if a Protection-Capability AVP is included
in the PANA-Bind-Request message, the message MUST contain the device
identifier in a Device-Id AVP for each EP. Otherwise, if a
Protection-Capability AVP is not included in the PANA-Bind-Request
message, the message MUST contain the device identifier in a
Device-Id AVP for each EP when a link-layer or IP address is used as
the device identifier of the PaC. The PANA-Bind-Answer message MUST
contain the PaC's device identifier in a Device-Id AVP when it is
already presented with that of EP(s) in the request with using the
same type of device identifier as contained in the request. If the
PANA-Bind-Answer message sent from the PaC does not contain a
Device-Id AVP with the same device identifier type contained in the
request, the PAA sends a PANA-Error-Request message with a
PANA_MISSING_AVP result code, and wait for a PANA-Error-Answer
message to terminate the session.
The PANA-Bind-Request message with a PANA_SUCCESS result code MUST
also contain a Protection-Capability AVP if link-layer or network-
layer ciphering is enabled after the authentication and authorization
phase. The PANA-Bind-Request message MAY also contain a Protection-
Capability AVP to indicate if link-layer or network-layer ciphering
should be enabled after the authentication and authorization phase.
No link-layer or network-layer specific information is included in
the Protection-Capability AVP. It is assumed that the PAA is aware
of the security capabilities of the access network. The PANA
protocol does not specify how the PANA SA and the Protection-
Capability AVP will be used to provide per-packet protection for data
traffic. When the PaC does not support the protection capability
indicated in the Protection-Capability AVP, the PaC MUST send a PANA-
Error-Request message with a PANA_PROTECTION_CAPABILITY_UNSUPPORTED
result code and terminate the PANA session.
Additionally, the PANA-Bind-Request message with a PANA_SUCCESS
result code MUST include a Post-PANA-Address-Configuration (PPAC)
AVP, which helps the PAA to inform the PaC about whether a new IP
address MUST be configured and the available methods to do so. In
this case, the PaC MUST include a PPAC AVP in the PANA-Bind-Answer
message in order to indicate its choice of method when there is a
match between the methods offered by the PAA and the methods
available on the PaC. When there is no match, the PaC MUST send a
PANA-Error-Request message with a PANA_PPAC_CAPABILITY_UNSUPPORTED
result code and terminate the PANA session.

4.8. Separate NAP and ISP Authentication
PANA allows running at most two EAP sessions in sequence in the
authentication and authorization phase to support separate NAP and
ISP authentication as described in this section. A typical network
access authentication includes execution of one EAP method with the
ISP. This separation allows the PaC to perform an additional
authentication method for receiving differentiated services from the
NAP.
Currently, running multiple EAP sessions in sequence in the
authentication and authorization phase is designed only for separate
NAP and ISP authentication. It is not for running arbitrary number
of EAP sessions in sequence, or giving the PaC another chance to try
another EAP authentication method within an integrated NAP and ISP
authentication when an EAP authentication method fails.
Within separate NAP and ISP authentication, the NAP authentication
and the ISP authentication are considered completely independent.
Presence or success of one should not effect the other. Making a
network access authorization decision based on the success or failure
of each authentication is a network policy issue.
4.8.1. Negotiating Separate NAP and ISP Authentication
When the PaC and PAA negotiates in the discovery and handshake phase
to perform separate NAP and ISP authentication, the PaC and the PAA
operate in the following way in addition to the behavior defined in
Section 4.3
In the discovery and handshake phase, the PAA MAY advertise
availability of separate NAP and ISP authentication ([I-D.ietf-pana-
framework]) by setting the S-flag on the PANA header of the PANA-
Start-Request message.
If the S-flag of the received PANA-Start-Request message is set, the
PaC can indicate its desire to perform separate NAP and ISP
authentication by setting the S-flag in the PANA-Start-Answer
message. If the S-flag of the received PANA-Start-Request message is
not set, the PaC MUST NOT set the S-flag in the PANA-Start-Answer
message sent back to the PAA.
If the S-flag in the PANA-Start-Answer message is not set, only one
authentication is performed (ISP-only) and the processing occurs as
described in Section 4.3.
When the S-flag is set in a PANA-Start-Request message, the initial
EAP Request message MUST NOT be carried in the PANA-Start-Request
message. (If the initial EAP Request message were contained in the
PANA-Start-Request message during the S-flag negotiation, the PaC
cannot tell whether the EAP Request message is for NAP authentication
or ISP authentication.)
4.8.2. Execution of Separate NAP and ISP Authentication
When the PaC and PAA have negotiated in the discovery and handshake
phase to perform separate NAP and ISP authentication, the PaC and the
PAA operate in the following way in addition to the behavior defined
in Section 4.4
o The S-flag of PANA-Auth-Request and PANA-Auth-Answer messages MUST
be set.
o An EAP Success/Failure message is carried in a PANA-FirstAuth-End-
Request (PFER) message as well as a PANA-Bind-Request (PBR)
message. The PANA-FirstAuth-End-Request message MUST be used at
the end of the first EAP authentication and the PANA-Bind-Request
MUST be used for the second EAP authentication. The PANA-
FirstAuth-End-Request messages MUST be acknowledged with a PANA-
FirstAuth-End-Answer (PFEA) message.
o If the first EAP authentication has failed, the PAA can choose not
to perform the second EAP authentication by clearing the S-flag of
the PANA-FirstAuth-End-Request message. In this case, the S-flag
of the PANA-FirstAuth-End-Answer message sent by the PaC MUST be
cleared. If the S-flag of the PANA-FirstAuth-End-Request message
is set when the first EAP authentication has failed, the PaC can
choose not to perform the second EAP authentication by clearing
the S-flag of the PANA-FirstAuth-End-Answer message. If the first
EAP authentication failed and the S-flag is not set in the PANA-
FirstAuth-End-Answer message as a result of those operations, the
PANA session MUST be immediately deleted. Otherwise, the second
EAP authentication MUST be performed.
o The PAA determines the execution order of NAP authentication and
ISP authentication. In this case, the PAA can indicate which
authentication (NAP authentication or ISP authentication) is
currently occurring by using N-flag in the PANA message header.
When NAP authentication is being performed, the N-flag MUST be
set. When ISP authentication is being performed, the N-flag MUST
NOT be set. The N-flag MUST NOT be set when S-flag is not set.
When the PaC and PAA have negotiated in the discovery and handshake
phase to perform separate NAP and ISP authentication, and the lower-
layer is insecure, the two EAP authentication methods used in the
separate authentication MUST be capable of deriving keys (AAA-Key).
4.8.3. AAA-Key Calculation
When the PaC and PAA have negotiated in the discovery and handshake Figure 7: Example sequence for the termination phase triggered by PaC
phase to perform separate NAP and ISP authentication, if the lower-
layer is insecure, the two EAP authentication methods used in the
separate authentication MUST be capable of deriving keys. In this
case, if the first EAP authentication is successful, the PANA-
FirstAuth-End-Request and PANA-FirstAuth-End-Answer messages as well
as PANA-Auth-Request and PANA-Auth-Answer messages in the second EAP
authentication MUST be protected with the key derived from the AAA-
Key for the first EAP authentication. The PANA-Bind-Request and
PANA-Bind-Answer messages and all subsequent PANA messages exchanged
in the access phase, re-authentication phase and termination phase
MUST be protected either with the AAA-Key for the first EAP
authentication if the first EAP authentication succeeds and the
second EAP authentication fails, or with the AAA-Key for the second
EAP authentication if the first EAP authentication fails and the
second EAP authentication succeeds, or with the compound AAA-Key
derived from the two AAA-Keys, one for the first EAP authentication
and the other from the second EAP authentication, if both the first
and second EAP authentication succeed. See Section 5.3 for how to
derive the AAA-Key.

and the device identifier(s) of the EP(s) in messages from the PAA
to the PaC.

5.6. PaC-EP-Master-Key
As described in Section 4.4, use of a cryptographic filtering
mechanism is indicated by inclusion of a Protection-Capability AVP in
the PANA-Bind-Request message in the authentication and authorization
phase. In this case, a PaC-EP-Master-Key is derived from the AAA-Key
for each EP and used by a secure association protocol for
bootstrapping link-layer or IPsec ciphering between the PaC and EP.
The PaC-EP-Master-Key derivation algorithm is defined as follows.
PaC-EP-Master-Key = The first 64 octets of
prf+(AAA-Key, "PaC-EP master key" |
Session ID | Key-ID | EP-Device-Id)
The prf+ function is defined in IKEv2 [RFC4306]. The pseudo-random
function used for the prf+ function is specified in the Algorithm AVP
carried in a PANA-FirstAuth-End-Request or a PANA-Bind-Request
message.
EP-Device-Id is the Data field of the Device-Id AVP for the
corresponding EP.
5.7. Device ID Choice
The device identifier used in the context of PANA can be an IP
address, a MAC address, or an identifier that may not be carried in
data packets but has local significance in identifying a connected
device (e.g., circuit id, PPP interface id). The last type of
identifiers are commonly used in point-to-point links where MAC
addresses are not available and lower-layers are already physically
or cryptographically secured.
It is assumed that the PAA knows the link type and the security
mechanisms being provided or required on the access network (based on
configuration of the network administrator). For example, one
network administrator might want to use IPsec for securing the
network access while another one (for a different network) might rely
on physical security.
When IPsec-based security [I-D.ietf-pana-ipsec] is the choice of
access control, the PAA MUST provide IP address(es) as EP(s)' device
ID, and expect the PaC to provide its IP address in return.
Similarly, IP addresses are used when the EP(s) is not on the same IP
subnet as the PaC is.
In other cases, MAC addresses are used as device identifiers when
they are available.
If non-IPsec access control is enabled, and a MAC address is not
available, locally-significant identifiers (e.g., as a circuit id)
MUST be used as device id. Note that these identifiers are not
exchanged within PANA messages. Instead, peers rely on lower-layers
to provide them along with received PANA messages.
5.8. PaC Updating its IP Address
A PaC's IP address can change in certain situations. For example, 5.6. PaC Updating its IP Address
the PANA framework [I-D.ietf-pana-framework] describes a case in
which a PaC replaces a pre-PANA address (PRPA) with a post-PANA
address (POPA). In another situation a PaC may change its IP address
used for PANA when it moves from one IP link to another within the
same PAA's realm. In order to maintain the PANA session, the PAA
needs to be notified about the change of PaC address.
If the device identifier of the PaC is the IP address, it is also A PaC's IP address used for PANA can change in certain situations,
subject to the same change. The PAA needs to be notified about the e.g., when the PaC moves from one IP link to another within the same
change of device identifier as well so that the PAA can update the PAA's realm. In order to maintain the PANA session, the PAA needs to
EP(s). If IPsec is used between the PaC and the EPs, an IKE or be notified about the change of PaC address.
MOBIKE [I-D.ietf-mobike-protocol] run is needed following such a
change.
After the PaC has changed its IP address, it MUST send a PANA-Update- After the PaC has changed its IP address used for PANA, it MUST send
Request message to the PAA. If the PaC has also changed its device a PANA-Update-Request message to the PAA. The PAA MUST update the
identifier, the PANA-Update-Request message MUST include a Device-Id
AVP containing the new device identifier. The PAA MUST update the
PANA session with the new PaC address carried in the Source Address PANA session with the new PaC address carried in the Source Address
field of the IP header and the new device identifier carried in the field of the IP header and return a PANA-Update-Answer message. If

an established PANA SA, both PANA-Update-Request and PANA-Update-

The PaC and the PAA MAY use information obtained outside PANA (e.g., The PaC and the PAA MAY use information obtained outside PANA (e.g.,
lower-layer indications) to expedite the detection of a disconnected lower-layer indications) to expedite the detection of a disconnected

When separate ISP and NAP authentication is performed, it is possible 5.8. Error Handling
that different authorization lifetime values are associated with the
two EAP authentication sessions. In this case, the smaller
authorization lifetime value MUST be used for calculating the PANA
Session-Lifetime value. As a result, both NAP and ISP authentication
will be performed in the re-authentication phase.
5.10. Network Selection
The PANA discovery and handshake phase allows the PaC to learn
identity of the NAP and a list of ISPs that are available through the
NAP. The PaC can not only learn the ISPs but also convey the
selected ISP explicitly during the handshake phase. The PAA is
assumed to be pre-configured with the information of ISPs that are
served by the NAP.
A PANA-Start-Request message sent from the PAA MAY contain zero or
one NAP-Information AVP, and zero or more ISP-Information AVPs. The
PaC MAY indicate its choice of ISP by including an ISP-Information
AVP in the PANA-Start-Answer message. The PaC MAY convey its ISP
even when there is no ISP-Information AVP contained in the PANA-
Start-Request message. The PaC can do that when it is pre-configured
with ISP information.
In the absence of an ISP explicitly selected and conveyed by the PaC,
ISP selection is typically performed based on the client identifier
(e.g., using the realm portion of an NAI carried in EAP method). A
backend AAA protocol (e.g., RADIUS) will run between the AAA client
on the PAA and a AAA server in the selected ISP domain.
The PANA-based ISP selection mechanism dictates the next-hop AAA
proxy on the PAA. If the NAP requires all AAA traffic to go through
its local AAA proxy, it may have to rely on a mechanism to relay the
selected ISP information from PAA (AAA client) to the local AAA
proxy. The local AAA proxy can forward the AAA traffic to the
selected ISP domain upon processing. Further details, including how
the AAA client relays AAA routing information to the AAA proxy, are
outside the scope of PANA.
An alternative ISP discovery mechanism is outlined in [RFC4284] which
suggests advertising ISP information in-band with the ongoing EAP
method execution. Deployments using the PANA's built-in ISP
discovery mechanism need not use the other mechanism.
5.11. Error Handling
A PANA-Error-Request message MAY be sent by either the PaC or the PAA A PANA-Error-Request message MAY be sent by either the PaC or the PAA
when a badly formed PANA message is received or in case of other when a badly formed PANA message is received or in case of other

11.4. Separate NAP and ISP Authentication 11.4. Cryptographic Keys
The PANA design allows running two separate EAP sessions for the same
PaC in the authentication and authorization phase: one with the NAP,
and one with the ISP. The process of arriving at the resultant
authorization, which is a combination of the individual
authorizations obtained from respective service providers, is outside
the scope of this protocol. In the absence of lower-layer security,
both authentications MUST be able to generate a AAA-Key, leading to
generation of a PANA SA. The resultant PANA SA cryptographically
binds the two AAA-Keys together, hence it prevents man-in-the-middle
attacks.

When link-layer or network-layer ciphering [I-D.ietf-pana-ipsec] is
enabled as a result of successful PANA authentication, a PaC-EP-
Master-Key is generated for each EP from the AAA-Key, session
identifier, key identifier, and the EP device identifier. The PaC-
EP-Master-Key derivation algorithm defined in Section 5.6 ensures
cryptographic independency among different PaC-EP-Master-Keys.
The lifetime of PaC-EP master key is bounded by the lifetime of the
PANA SA. This key may be used with a secure association protocol
[RFC4306] to produce further cipher-specific and transient keys.

Appendix A. Example Sequence of Separate NAP and ISP Authentication
A PANA message sequence with separate NAP and ISP authentication is
illustrated in Figure 12. The example assumes the following
scenario:
o The PaC initiates the discovery and handshake phase.
o The PAA offers separate NAP and ISP authentication, as well as a
choice of ISP from "ISP1" and "ISP2". The PaC accepts the offer
from PAA, with choosing "ISP1" as the ISP.
o NAP authentication and ISP authentication is performed in this
order in the authentication and authorization phase.
o An EAP authentication method with a single round trip is used in
each EAP sequence.
o After a PANA SA is established, all messages are integrity and
replay protected with AUTH AVPs.
o The access, re-authentication and termination phases are not
shown.
