Title : IKEv2-based Shared Secret Key for O/TWAMP

Abstract:
The O/TWAMP security mechanism requires that both the client and
server endpoints 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
describes the use of keys derived from an IKEv2 SA as the shared key
in O/TWAMP. If the shared key can be derived from the IKEv2 SA, O/
TWAMP can support certificate-based key exchange, which would allow
for more operational flexibility and efficiency. The key derivation
presented in this document can also facilitate automatic key
management.
