Abstract:
The O/TWAMP security mechanism requires that endpoints (i.e. both the
client and the server) possess a shared secret. Since the currently-
standardized O/TWAMP security mechanism only supports a pre-shared
key mode, large scale deployment of O/TWAMP is hindered
significantly. At the same time, recent trends point to wider IKEv2
deployment, which in turn calls for mechanisms and methods that
enable tunnel end-users, as well as operators, to measure one-way and
two-way network performance in a standardized manner. This document
discusses the use of keys derived from an IKE SA as the shared key in
O/TWAMP. If the shared key can be derived from the IKE SA, O/TWAMP
can support cert-based key exchange, which would allow for more
flexibility and efficiency. Such key derivation can also facilitate
automatic key management.
