Abstract:
Privacy is an important issue for many governments and users where
its importance becomes more evident every day. Nodes might change
their IP addresses frequently in order to avoid being tracked by
attackers and which also results in the prevention of information
being leaked from their nodes. In IPv6 networks there is currently
one solution for maintaining privacy for nodes when IPv6 StateLess
Address AutoConfiguration (SLAAC) (RFC-4662) is used. Unfortunately
this solution, i.e., Privacy Extension (RFC-4941), has some problems,
such as not generating a new Interface ID (IID) after changing the
router prefix. The RFC also gives no explanation as to how to use CGA
in its randomizing solution. The purpose of this document is to
address these issues and to update the current RFC.
