摘要:
A system, method, and node for protecting a telecommunication system against a mobile and multi-homed attacker, MMA (10). The telecommunication system includes one or more correspondent nodes, CN, (102, 104) for transferring data packets. A mobile and multi-homed network node, MMN, (108) associated with the MMA communicates and receives data packets with the CN. An access router, AR, (106) transferring data between the MMN and the CN performs a reachability test with the MMN to determine if the MMN is still reachable. The AR sends a message to the CN to flush cached information associated with the MMN if the MMN is not reachable by the AR. The CN, upon receiving the message to flush cached information, flushes binding cache entries associated with the MMN from the CN.

Before actually communicating information/data between two endpoints (C, S) connected to a network a secure and confidential distribution of a special key (K h) is performed to nodes (R j) along a path in the network. This is allowed by performing a path handshaking procedure in which first a hint token is forwarded along the path in a first direction and then a disclosure token is forwarded in the opposite direction. In forwarding the disclosure token it is verified in the nodes against the already received hint token. This assures that only nodes on the particular path will receive the special key or possibly some other information related thereto.
摘要:
A method and apparatus to establish trust between two nodes in a communications network. A first node receives from a network node authentication data unique to the first node, which can be used to derive a compact representation of verification data for the first node. The first node also receives a certified compact representation of verification data of all nodes in the network. The first node derives trust information from the authentication data for the node, and sends to a second node a message that includes the trust information and part of the authentication data. The second node has its own copy of the certified compact representation of verification data of all nodes in the network, and verifies the authenticity of the message from the first node using the compact representation of verification data of all nodes in the network and the received trust information and authentication data.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for establishing a cryptographic relationship between a first node and a second node in a communications network. The first node receives at least part of a cryptographic attribute of the second node, uses the received at least part of the cryptographic attribute to generate an identifier for the first node. The cryptographic attribute may a public key belonging to the second node, and the identifier may be a Cryptographically Generated IP address. The cryptographic relationship allows the second node to establish with a third node that it is entitled to act on behalf of the first node.

摘要:
A network element can include a proxy element that is configured to receive a request from a source node to establish a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) connection from a first network address of the source node through a Packet Data Network Gateway (PDN GW) to a destination node for an IP flow. The proxy element applies an IP flow offloading policy function to determine that the requested TCP connection for the IP flow should bypass the PDN GW. The proxy element responds to the determination by communicating to the destination node a request for TCP connection with a second network address substituted for the first network address of the source node to establish the TCP connection for the IP flow from the source node to the destination node through a broadband network without passing through the PDN GW.
摘要:
Methods and apparatuses for combining internet protocol layer authentication and mobility signaling are disclosed. Various embodiments for providing authentication and mobility signaling when a mobile node moves from a 3GPP access network to a non 3GPP access network and vice versa are described.
摘要:
A method for maintaining connectivity between a mobile node and a corresponding node when the mobile node connects to a foreign network, where the foreign network and the home network are Internet protocol version 6 (IPv6) networks but the corresponding node is an Internet protocol version 4 (IPv4) node. The method includes receiving at the home agent node an IPv6 care-of address, determining that the IPv6 care-of address belongs to the foreign network and that the foreign NAT64 node has a prefix to to generate virtual IPv6 addresses and sending a prefix binding request message to a home NAT64 node to bind the prefix to the home address of the mobile node for translation between IPv6 and IPv4.
