“…The security schemes proposed in [8,9] are only for protecting L3 signaling messages (‚ and in Figure 1). Integrated handover authentication scheme [10] has been proposed to integrate the L3 key with the L2 key; namely, the L2 key can be derived directly from the L3 key. Before the MN handovers to the target AR, the MN transports a new L3 key, 1 , to AR 1 through the AAA as in (2), where MSK is a secret key shared between the MN and AAA.…”

“…A new cross-layer scheme for key management and associated security is proposed, where an L2 key is derived from an L3 key to speed up the L3 handover procedure accompanying the L2 handover, so that it is similar to the one in [10]. However, there is much difference between them in terms of security and efficiency.…”

“…Two L3 keys are required to protect the L3 signaling messages: the one ( 0 ) on the subnet of AR 0 and the other ( 1 ) on the subnet of AR 1 . Unlike the previous schemes [8][9][10] based on the interaction with AAA, the MN generates and distributes 1 proactively to AR 1 before it moves from AR 0 to AR 1 . Furthermore, the L2 key (PMK 1 ) can be derived from 1 on the subnet of AR 1 and pushed into new AP 1 attached to AR 1 , so that the IEEE 802.1x-EAP can be skipped.…”

“…in particular, a compromise of the current L3 key should not induce that of the future L3 key to suppress the domino effect. Several security mechanisms [8][9][10] have been previously proposed to establish the L3 key. However, they have several weaknesses in terms of security and efficiency.…”

“…Since both L2 and L3 keys are generated and managed independently, key management for IEEE 802.11-based FMIPv6 becomes complex. A simplified key management scheme [10] to derive the L2 key from the L3 key has been proposed to reduce the authentication delay. However, it is still required for the MN to be interconnected with the AAA on each L3 handover, and it has a security problem in that a session hijacking attack is feasible, which will be shown in this paper.…”

A new key management and security scheme is proposed to integrate Layer Two (L2) and Layer Three (L3) keys for secure and fast Mobile IPv6 handover over IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). Unlike the original IEEE 802.11-based Mobile IPv6 Fast Handover (FMIPv6) that requires time-consuming IEEE 802.1x-based Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) authentication on each L3 handover, the newly proposed key management and security scheme requires only one 802.1x-EAP regardless of how many L3 handovers occur. Therefore, the proposed scheme reduces the handover latency that results from a lengthy 802.1x-based EAP. The proposed key management and security scheme is extensively analyzed in terms of security and performance, and the proposed security scheme is shown to be more secure than those that were previously proposed.

A Comprehensive Review of Enhancements and Prospects of Fast Handovers for Mobile IPv6 Protocol

The emerging mobility management schemes for the fifth generation (5G) of mobile networks mostly follow the network-based protocol principles, which do not involve the mobile node (MN) in their operation. Such solutions have not been able to meet the ultra-low handover latency requirement in complex mobility scenarios in 5G. These objectives can be potentially achieved through increased involvement of MN in the handover operation, which can now be conveniently effectuated through virtualization technologies. In this regard, the classical host-based Fast Handovers for Mobile IPv6 (FMIPv6) protocol has the potential to offer several benefits due to its distinctive features, such as link-layer assistance for handover preparation, in-advance new care-of address formulation, and buffering services. Several enhancements to the FMIPv6 protocol have also been proposed, which improve its handover performance. Many of these enhancements focus on the baseline FMIPv6 specification, while others aim to enhance its operation by adding support features, such as mobile multicast, vertical handovers, quality of service assurance, as well as security support. Moreover, several enhancements to the access-technology-specific solutions for FMIPv6 have also been proposed. This paper aims to provide a systematic review of FMIPv6 enhancements in order to gain insight into its advantages as well as its shortcomings. Based on the review, this paper also discusses the evolution prospects of FMIPv6 toward 5G. Finally, some of its potential limitations along with possible research directions in the context of 5G are also indicated.
