Looks good after a brief review. (I didn't perform a full

I'm asking all these questions, so you may perhaps answer yourself.

- If the relay "knows" to send accounting messages to the accounting server 
and not the authentication server, then this accounting message is no 
different.

- If the authentication server did not authenticate or authorize this 
session, (eg: returned a failure) then it need not receive anything further.

- If the NAS decided it could not support an authenticated or authorized 
session,(eg: a AAA with success) then it should also issue an 
Session-Termination-Request (STR) to the Authentication Server to abort the 
session information at that server. [Section 2.3]  As well as the 
Accounting EVENT_RECORD.

Thanks Dave,

I suppose you mentioned one choice for the NAS that it could terminate the session if it failed to start a NASREQ session context. However I wonder if the NAS will go to extreme to do so, as neither NASREQ or [BASE] have mentioned what actions shall ACCT server/NAS take after an EVENT_RECORD request/answer message is received.

And this is the reason I invite Aboba to explain possible further behavior of NAS and ACCT server handling such a failure.

Best regards,
roger

This is not extreme.  If a NAS cannot support a service it MUST terminate 
it, even if it's authenticated or authorized.  Believe me, NASes do it with 
RADIUS all the time.

The drafts do not discuss every possible action.
There are no external actions for an accounting server to take.  It should 
record the event and any implication of that is implementation dependent.

The purpose of the event record is obvious.  ISPs want a record of every 
attempted session and the result.  Failed attempts can offer information 
about user mistakes, or hackers rattling the door knobs.  It's also 
extremely useful when debugging.  The Accounting records should show these.

That's preferrable to attempting to provide a different service than
what was requested -- which happens sometimes with RADIUS (I've seen
RADIUS implementations that ignored Filter-Id attributes they didn't
understand, instead of dropping the call).

One of the most annoying things about RADIUS is that you don't
see Accounting records for failed calls -- just the information that you
want in the early phases of a deployment, particularly when interoperability
issues may still be shaking out -- as they are with 802.11
implementations, for example.

In the early phases of a rollout, I like to be able to access *all* of the
available information -- and to wring as much information out of the
failed call records as is available, until the failure rate is low enough
to consider the service operational.

AAA WG last call has concluded on draft-ietf-aaa-diameter-nasreq-10.txt,
which is being considered for advancement as an IETF Proposed Standard.
The draft is available at:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-aaa-diameter-nasreq-10.txt

Two issues were raised in last call (389, 395), and are available for
inspection at:

http://www.drizzle.com/~aboba/AAA/issues.html

As NASREQ is a dependency of 3GPP2, and we are already late, getting this
document ready for IESG review is an important goal for the month of
January 2003.

The goal is to start 2003 by getting NASREQ into the hands of
the IESG within a few weeks. Here's the game plan:

a. Address the AAA WG last call comments, as well as IESG NITs.

b. Post a strawman -11 document for review.

c. Incorporate any other last minute comments (if you haven't done your
review now, time is running out...)

d. Get a -11 draft out on the IETF archive and ready for IESG review by
January 17, 2003 (in time for the IETF/3GPP meeting).

Due to a variety of nagging problems in maintenance of the current AAA WG
mailing list at MERIT, we are considering moving the list over to
ietf.org.

There are some pros and cons:

Pros:

The ietf.org list would use mailman, which enables postings from
outsiders and is less likely to randomly unsubscribe people.

Cons:

The old archives will be available via FTP, but not via the Web anymore.
We will however have a new Web archive.

If anyone has an opinion on the switchover, please post to the list. WE
are not irretrievably committed either way at the moment, but that won't
be true for a lot longer.

This is not necessarily a pro - the AAA mailing list has been

I agree with John, an open mailing list is not a pro. The main IETF list when I was on it received about 50% spam and 50% actual postings. Twas a bit of a pain to sift through it all.

If we do have to move over to using the IETF listserv, is there any possibility of using something like Spam Assassin (http://spamassassin.org/) to filter out at least some of the rubbish? I guess it won't filter out people who insist on sending out their Résumés/CVs to us, but maybe it might catch at least advertisements and porn.

I agree with John, an open mailing list is not a pro. The main IETF list when I was on it received about 50% spam and 50% actual postings. Twas a bit of a pain to sift through it all.

If we do have to move over to using the IETF listserv, is there any possibility of using something like Spam Assassin (http://spamassassin.org/) to filter out at least some of the rubbish? I guess it won't filter out people who insist on sending out their Résumés/CVs to us, but maybe it might catch at least advertisements and porn.

I didn't understand the part about the "randomly unsubscribe people"
and the "nagging problems".  Merit has assigned me to "maintain" this
list and if there are problems, someone should at least inform me of
them, yes?

I am unfamiliar with mailman but have started to read the mailman
home page.  Merit may have problems if the license is too strict,
but I haven't gotten that for yet.

Are there any problems with Merit's archive?  Changes/improvements
therein are possible.  Do folks in general want "postings from outsiders"?
I, too, value the "closed" nature of the list since it does keep the
SPAM away.

Regards,

web...

The Java API was a part of the darft Diameter API version 01.
There was a discussion on this list on standardizing Diameter Java API
through Java Specification Request (JSR) under Java Community Process (JCP),
then the specifications on the Java API were excluded from the following
versions of the draft.
Does anyone know if there is any work being done on the Java API?

With thanks,

Hi all,

I have updated the Diameter base spec, I want to a read of it
before submitting, but the current version can be found here:

http://www-nrc.nokia.com/sua/draft-ietf-aaa-diameter-17.txt

The plan is to submit it shortly, so that Randy can put it on
the IESG conference call agenda tomorrow.

thanks,
John

In order to have RFC 2869bis published as an RFC in time for citation by
IEEE 802.1aa, it needs to enter IETF last call approximately 4-5 months
before publication is required.

In order not to delay IEEE 802.1aa, I have asked for the draft, which is
available below, to go to IETF last call. Since this is the last
opportunity for people to read and comment on it, it's important for those
interested in the subject of RADIUS/EAP to do a read through and ensure
that it is satisfactory.

Comments can be sent to the EAP WG mailing list (eap@frascone.com) and to
the authors, using the format described at:

http://www.drizzle.com/~aboba/EAP/eapissues.html

The draft itself is available at:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-aboba-radius-rfc2869bis-06.txt

>than just a key.
[Tony]: In RFC3220 they use security association, which they mean a
shared secret. So, what should I say preconfigured shared secret?

>I have not evaluated the security of the scheme in this section, since
>it depends on another draft, and possibly on the security of MobileIP
>itself. Can we really even consider this draft until those are done?

>1.10: What firewall rules? Are the agents supposed to tell their local
>firewalls to open up some holes?
[Tony]: Per discussion from the review meeting last week - how about the
following text:
.in 0
1.10  IP filter rule support

.in 3
This application has support for pushing filter rules to either of the
mobility agents to enable appropriate restrictions for the mobile node,
such as limiting the mobile nodes access due to roaming agreements or
network protection. The filter rules are set by the AAAH by adding one
or more MIP-Filter-Rule AVPs in the HAR if destined for the home agent
and/or in the AMA if destined for the foreign agent. The filer rules
does only apply to the mobile node in the HAR and/or AMA message, thus
the mobility agents will process the filter rules individually for each
mobile node.

If MIP-Filter-Rule AVPs are included in the HAR and the home agent does
not have support to handle filter rules, the home agent MUST return a
HAA with Result-Code AVP equal to
DIAMETER_ERROR_MIP_FILTER_NOT_SUPPORTED.

If the MIP-Filter-Rule AVPs are included in the AMA and the foreign
agent does not have support to handle filter rules, the foreign agent
SHOULD log the event and MUST issue a Session-Termination-Request (STR)
back to its local Diameter server.


>5.2: 64 bits is not sufficient for a key. Why not just mandate 128,
>instead of strongly recommending it?
[Tony]: This was due to the Mobile IP AAA key distribution draft, which
we are dependent on, however draft-draft-ietf-mobileip-aaa-key-10.txt
has now changed to mandate 128 bit. So, 128 bit is now mandated.

>5: I confess that it still isn't clear to me how the home and foreign
>agents know authoritatively who each other are. Then again, that's
>always been my main complaint about AAA. But here they're handing out
>keys.
[Tony]: Reading through the Diameter MIPv4 application draft again, I
not sure what is missing to make it more understandable. I really need
some help here.

Yesterday, on the IESG conference call, the Diameter Base Protocol (Draft
17) was approved as an IETF Proposed Standard.

Many thanks to everyone in the AAA WG who have worked on this
over the years. To Pat Calhoun, who was present at the birth; to Erik
Guttman, who helped raise it during its rebellious teenage years; to John
Loughney who served as editor and foster parent; to Glen Zorn and Jari
Arkko, the kindly uncles who contributed wise advice along the way. And to
all the members of the AAA WG who read the specification, even when it was
not as palatable as it is today -- and contributed an Issue, or the
resolution of an Issue.

To all of you -- you have my permission to have a glass of champagne
tonite :)

Bernard

The IESG has approved the Internet-Draft 'Diameter Base Protocol'
<draft-ietf-aaa-diameter-17.txt> as a Proposed Standard.  This document
is the product of the Authentication, Authorization and Accounting
Working Group.  The IESG contact persons are Randy Bush and Bert Wijnen.


Technical Summary

  This document is the base for the proposed new IETF AAA protocol
  suite. The base protocol is intended to provide an AAA framework for
  applications such as network access and IP mobility. Diameter is
  also intended to work in both local AAA and in roaming situations.
  This draft specifies the message format, transport, error reporting,
  accounting and security services to be used by all Diameter
  applications. The Diameter base application MUST be supported by all
  Diameter implementations.

Working Group Summary

  There was no technical dissent to this document in the aaa working
  group or during IETF last call.

Protocol Quality

  This document was reviewed for the IESG by Randy Bush, and many
  others.

Hi all,

I've tried to summarize the major changes in the Diameter base spec from
16 to 17.

thanks,
John

Diameter 17 Updates

1) "Accounting-RADIUS-Session-Id" (44) changed to "Accounting-Session-Id" 

2) Section 1.2.4, 3rd paragraph, Page 14 changed to:

	"Every Diameter implementation MUST support accounting.
	Basic accounting support is sufficient to handle any application
	that uses the ACR/ACA commands defined in this document, as long
	as no new mandatory AVPs are added. A mandatory AVP is defined as
	one which has the "M" bit set when sent within an accounting
	command, regardless of whether it is required or optional
	within the ABNF for the accounting application."

3) Sections 2.4 & 11.3, 2nd paragraph changed to:

	Diameter Base Accounting      0
	NASREQ                        1 [NASREQ]
	Mobile-IP                     4 [DIAMMIP]	
	Relay                         0xffffffff


4) General cleanup on  "SHOULD be placed as close to the Diameter header as possible."

5) Added reference to 2194

6) added to 4.6

	E2E-Sequence AVP 300  6.15    Grouped    | M  |  P  |    |  V  | Y  |

7) User defined.

8) End-to-end security definition improved

9) IPAddress changed to Address & format now includes a 16 bit address type,
   to discriminate IPv4, IPv6, etc. addresses

10) Error-Message changed to UTF8String 

11) Host-IP-Address AVP (AVP Code 257) type changed to Address (from IPAddress)

12) Text for section "11.1.1  AVP Codes" updated.

13) Fixed allocation range for Application IDs, Section 11.3

	IANA [IANA] will assign the range 0x00000001 to 0x00ffffff for 
	standards-track applications; and 0x01000000 - 0xfffffffe for 
	vendor specific applications, on a first-come, first-served basis. 
	The following values are allocated.

I have a couple of questions regarding the exact
semantics of some Radius attributes.  I was hoping you
could set me straight.

In the case of Ascend attribute 104 (outside of the scope
of the document, I know):

Can this attribute have overlapping instances when it
occurs more than once?  And does it imply that the
routes must be tested in the order they are given by
the server?

For instance, in the (dubious) case of getting back:

Ascend-Private-Route="170.0.0.0/8 10.10.10.1"
Ascend-Private-Route="170.1.0.0/16 10.10.10.1"

Is this the same as:

Ascend-Private-Route="170.1.0.0/16 10.10.10.1"
Ascend-Private-Route="170.1.0.0/8 10.10.10.1"

(ordering by specificity) or just:

Ascend-Private-Route="170.0.0.0/8 10.10.10.1"

(since the less specific route would match both cases?)

There are implementation and performance implications
of doing it either way.  The more open interpretation
requires searching linearly for the first match (since this
would allow multiple matches).  The more restrictive
interpretation allows for an efficient tree-based search,
since the first match is also the only match.

And the next question is about the Framed-IP-Address
attribute (#8):  If the NAS receives this from the Radius
server with the value 255.255.255.255 (remote host
should select address), does this mean that the NAS
should balk if the remote host doesn't furnish a valid
address?  Or should it fall back on a local address pool,
and pick one from there?

This latter behaviour is not implied by the standard,
and introduces an ambiguity in the protocol that
relies entirely on the local state of the NAS (i.e.
whether it has a local address pool configured or
not).

I think that the correct interpretation is to fail the
negotiation, but this is obviously a more restrictive
interpretation.  What's your collective opinion?

Thanks,

-Philip

Since the attributes you cite can also be used with Diameter NASREQ, I'm posting your questions to the AAA WG list, so that we can make sure that NASREQ includes the clarifications.

[BA] I think this may depend on the media. Within PPP, the address would be negotiated within IPCP, and presumably if the NAS did not like the address suggested by the peer, it could assign its own. However, for other media such as IEEE 802, the NAS is not directly involved in address assignment (e.g. most switches/APs just forward DHCP packets) so it may be harder to give guidance (unless the switch/AP can also act as a DHCP server).

FWIW, we (Ascend) always allowed overlapping instances.

No.

 >> declined - The CHAP-Auth grouping was designed to allow a number of 
different CHAP algorithms, each with seperate AVP constraints.  Because 
only one has been defined, it looks a little odd.  The CHAP-Response AVP is 
grammarically optional, but required by the specification of CHAP with MD5.
Other algorithms may require other AVPs and not CHAP-Response.

 >> This example is lifted directly from RFC 2866, Section 5.12.
The description is slightly different, but the intended semantics are the 
same.  The value indicates the "total" number of links _seen_ over time on 
this session by the time the record is sent.  Active or not. It never 
decreases.

RFC 2866 said:
contains the number of links seen so far in this Multilink Session.

I edit this text to clarify further:

indicates the total number of links that have been active (current or closed)
in a given multilink session, at the time the accounting record is generated.

 >> You're right, in the first bullet, it should read:
if a Proxy-State attribute is present, ...

This is following our recommendation in the prior section to encode 
Proxy-Info information in a Proxy-State attribute.

The second bullet is correct as is.  It is talking about this situation, 
where Proxy-Info was in the Diameter Request that caused this gateway's 
RADIUS translation.

 >> Okay.   This appears to be a carryover from RFC2866 sect 5.13
The State attribute is explictly called out to be not-allowed.

 >> I guess so.  Their presence serves as a comparator from the other 
accounting table.  I might take a crack at combining these two tables.
