“…In our previous study [11] we obtained similar performance results with merely equal HIP handshake duration measured in two directions between a Nokia 770 Internet Tablet and a server. Further comparison to our previous work [11] indicates that the HIP base exchange performance on Linux-based Nokia 770 Internet Tablet is better than on Symbian-based Nokia E51 smartphone (1.40 vs. 1.68 sec), although the latter has more CPU and RAM resources. We explain this phenomenon as an impact of the Open C plug-in that is used with our Symbian HIP ports to wrap C function calls to native Symbian APIs.…”

“…In particular, we compare OpenHIP and HIPL protocol implementations running on two Symbian S60 smartphones with varying hardware resources. This study continues our previous work on the performance of HIP on Linux-based Nokia Internet Tablet [11]. Besides our studies HIP, has been evaluated exclusively on stationary Internet hosts with conventional PC-like resources [8], [7], [20], [10].…”

Abstract-The Host Identity Protocol (HIP) has been specified by the IETF as a new solution for secure host mobility and multihoming in the Internet. HIP uses self-certifying publicprivate key pairs in combination with IPsec to authenticate hosts and protect user data. While there are three open-source HIP implementations, little experience is available with running HIP on lightweight hardware such as a mobile phone. Limited computational power and battery lifetime of lightweight devices raise concerns if HIP can be used there at all. This paper describes the porting process of HIP on Linux (HIPL) and OpenHIP implementations to Symbian OS, as well as performance measurements of HIP over WLAN using Nokia E51 and N80 smartphones. We found that with 1024-bit keys, the HIP base exchange with a server varies from 1.68 to 3.31 seconds depending on whether the mobile phone is in standby or active state respectively. After analyzing HIP performance in different scenarios we make conclusions and recommendations on using IP security on lightweight hardware clients.

“…HIP has been developed to evaluate the benefits and drawbacks of using a new cryptographical identifier namespace on top of IP. HIP has been extended to support multihoming and mobility [33] and there are several implementations of HIP available [26]. Compared to these solutions, the main benefit of shim6 is that it does not require any change to the applications.…”

a b s t r a c tIn the changing landscape of the todays Internet, several solutions are under investigation to allow efficient, flexible and scalable multihoming. One of the proposals is shim6, a host-based multihoming solution based on the use of multiple IPv6 addresses on each host. In this work, we first describe the main features of this protocol, then we explain our implementation of shim6, along with the associated security mechanisms in the Linux kernel and, finally, we evaluate its performance. In particular, we analyse the performance impact of the security mechanisms used by shim6 and the impact of shim6 on the performance of end-host systems, especially heavily loaded servers. We conclude by discussing the remaining open issues for a widespread deployment of host-based multihoming techniques such as shim6.

Host Identity Protocol (HIP) has security support to enable secured mobility and multihoming, both of which are essential for future Internet applications. Yet micro-mobility has not been efficiently and securely addressed by HIP and other mechanisms based on it. This paper introduces a method based on HIP to support micro-mobility in an efficient and secure manner. We present the architectural elements of the framework and show through discussion and simulation results that our scheme can achieve negligible handover latency and few packet loss.
