Title : Threats for Basic Network Mobility Support (NEMO threats)
Author(s) : A. Petrescu
Filename : draft-petrescu-nemo-threats-01.txt
Pages : 21
Date : 2004-1-12
This document describes security threats related to the network
mobility base protocol (NEMO). Threats of Mobile IPv6 for Mobile
Hosts are only briefly touched when in need of support of related
NEMO threats. The NEMO signalling between MR and HA, as well as
the forwarding information at HA and nested mobility configurations
are considered to be the main sensitive points of the protocol.
Existing tools of Mobile IPv6 protection between MH and HA (IPsec),
dynamic routing protocol authentication, NEMO prefix table, ingress
filtering checks at HA and tunnel encapsulation limiting are
presented as protocol features affording protection against
threats. NEMO threats for which there are no protections are
briefly mentioned.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
