It is a good idea.  It would unlock an important issue in the IPWAVE WG.

Hi, Maybe use similar language as in
https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-ipwave-vehicular-networking-09.txt

For the protection of drivers' privacy, the pseudonym of a MAC address of a vehicle's network interface should be used, with the help of which the MAC address can be changed periodically.

YEs, and use 'MAY' instead of 'should'.

I only found the sentence " The policy dictating when the MAC address
is  changed on the 802.11-OCB interface is to-be-determined" as too
weak.

I agree, it begs for clarification.

Hi, I understand the text makes one think the way you do.

Privacy is indeed a major issue in vehicular networks.

I dont know how to better formulate this MAC address change such as
to be ready for the future, and also be compatible with the present.

1609.4 is not implemented in all places.  Those who implement 1609.4
do not implement IPv6-over-OCB.  1609.4 implementations, such as all
1609 implementations, come with a high cost in software, hardware and
necessary skillset.

IPv6-over-OCB comes at significantly lower cost in the three.

Hi,

I am not a security expert, I was just trying to reflect that when reading the document I got the impression that privacy is a major concern since the IP-OBU is moving and its location can be traced
by sniffing the MAC addresses.

Maybe it will be good to have a security review of the document. I also noticed that there is support in IEEE SA - 1609.4-2016 for
MAC address change.

Thanks,

The only comment left is:


2. In section 5.2 "The policy dictating when the MAC address is changed on the 802.11-OCB interface is to-be-determined.". Reading
the next sentence it looks to me that this is needed as part of
the solution and should not be left for the unknown future.

Should we reformulate here?

I was expecting some recommendation since the changing of MAC
address is important to address privacy issues (discussed in
section 5). Currently it is left open with no recommendation , only
saying that dynamic change of MAC address is needed.

Maybe the document should have some normative language for example
in section 5.1 that will say that IP-OBU MUST dynamic change their
MAC addresses

*/[RR] I highly recommend AGAINST this!  There will be a number
OBU and RSU implementations that DO NOT require anonymity, and
don't want it either.  Furthermore, immutable identifier change
must be coordinated with all other interfaces and protocols
otherwise changing them is useless./*

Did the document go through security area review?

*/[RR] If it did, and the above was not mentioned, then something
was missed./*

Dear Roni,

Thank you for your review.

Please, see my answers below.

Document: draft-ietf-ipwave-ipv6-over-80211ocb-?? Reviewer: Roni
Even Review Date: 2019-06-16 IETF LC End Date: 2019-06-26 IESG
Telechat date: Not scheduled for a telechat

Summary: The document is almost ready for publication as a standard
track RFC

Major issues:

Minor issues:

1. Section 4.2  says "IP packets MUST be transmitted over
802.11-OCB media as QoS Data" while appendix F say "The STA may
send data frames of subtype Data, Null, QoS Data, and QoS Null.

I will update the appendix to reflect the text in section 4.2.


2. In section 5.2 "The policy dictating when the MAC address is changed on the 802.11-OCB interface is to-be-determined.". Reading
the next sentence it looks to me that this is needed as part of the
solution and should not be left for the unknown future.

Should we reformulate here?


3. In Appendix I 4th paragraph " However, this does not apply if
TBD TBD TBD. " ... What are the TBDs?

The whole sentence will be removed.


Nits/editorial comments: 1. In appendix I last paragraph "Support
of RFC 8505 is may be implemented on OCB." should be "Support of
RFC 8505 may be implemented on OCB." 2. In Appendix I "OCB nodes
that support RFC 8505 would support the 6LN operation in order to act as a host". I think that instead of "would" it should be "should" also if this is a recommendation why not have this
paragraph not in an appendix with "MAY" and "SHOULD

Agreed.
