Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) J. Bournelle Request for Comments: 6942 L. Morand Category: Standards Track Orange Labs ISSN: 2070-1721 S. Decugis INSIDE Secure Q. Wu Huawei G. Zorn Network Zen May 2013 Diameter Support for the EAP Re-authentication Protocol (ERP) Abstract The EAP Re-authentication Protocol (ERP) defines extensions to the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) to support efficient re-authentication between the peer and an EAP Re-authentication (ER) server through a compatible authenticator. This document specifies Diameter support for ERP. It defines a new Diameter ERP application to transport ERP messages between an ER authenticator and the ER server, and a set of new Attribute-Value Pairs (AVPs) that can be used to transport the cryptographic material needed by the re-authentication server.

[RFC6696] defines the EAP Re-authentication Protocol (ERP). It consists of the following steps: Bootstrapping A root key for re-authentication is derived from the Extended Master Session Key (EMSK) created during EAP authentication [RFC5295]. This root key is transported from the EAP server to the ER server. Re-authentication A one-round-trip exchange between the peer and the ER server, resulting in mutual authentication. To support the EAP re-authentication functionality, ERP defines two new EAP codes -- EAP-Initiate and EAP-Finish. This document defines how Diameter transports the ERP messages during the re-authentication process. For this purpose, we define a new Application Identifier for ERP and reuse the Diameter EAP commands Diameter-EAP-Request (DER) / Diameter-EAP-Answer (DEA). This document also discusses the distribution of the root key during bootstrapping, in conjunction with either the initial EAP authentication (implicit bootstrapping) or the first ERP exchange (explicit bootstrapping). Security considerations for this key distribution are detailed in Section 7.4 of Salowey, et al. [RFC5295]. 2. Terminology This document uses terminology defined in Aboba, et al. [RFC3748], Salowey, et al. [RFC5295], Cao, et al. [RFC6696], and Eronen, et al. [RFC4072]. Following RFC 5295, the term "domain" herein refers to a key management domain unless otherwise qualified. Similarly, the terms "home domain" and "local domain" have the same meaning here as in RFC 6696. The re-authentication Domain-Specific Root Key (rDSRK) is a re-authentication Root Key (rRK) [RFC6696] derived from the Domain- Specific Root Key (DSRK) instead of the EMSK. Bournelle, et al. Standards Track [Page 3] RFC 6942 Diameter ERP Application May 2013 "Root key" (RK) or "bootstrapping material" refers to the rRK or rDSRK derived from an EMSK, depending on whether the ER server is located in the home or a foreign domain. We use the notation "ERP/DER" and "ERP/DEA" in this document to refer to Diameter-EAP-Request and Diameter-EAP-Answer commands with the Application Id set to <Diameter ERP> (Section 10.1); the same commands are denoted "EAP/DER" and "EAP/DEA" when the Application Id in the message is set to <Diameter EAP> [RFC4072]. 2.1. Requirements Language The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119]. 3. Assumptions This document assumes the existence of, at most, one logical ER server entity in a given domain. If several physical servers are deployed for robustness, a replication mechanism must be deployed to synchronize the ERP state (e.g., root keys) between these servers. Any such replication mechanism is outside the scope of this document. If multiple ER servers are deployed in the domain, we assume that they can be used interchangeably. If multiple ER servers are deployed across multiple domains, we assume that only one ER server, topologically close to the peer, is involved in ERP, with distance being measured in terms of Diameter hops. This document also assumes the existence of, at most, one EAP server entity in the home domain. In case of multiple physical home EAP servers, if the ER server wants to reach the same home EAP server, the ER server SHOULD cache the Destination-Host AVP corresponding to the home EAP server it requests. In general, it is assumed that key management domain names and Diameter realm names are identical for any given domain/realm. Bournelle, et al. Standards Track [Page 4] RFC 6942 Diameter ERP Application May 2013 4. Protocol Overview The following figure illustrates the components involved in ERP and their interactions. Diameter +--------+ +-------------+ ERP +-----------+ (*) | Home | Peer <->|Authenticator|<=======>| ER server | <---> | EAP | +-------------+ +-----------+ | server | +--------+ (*) Diameter EAP application; explicit bootstrapping scenario only. Figure 1: Diameter ERP Overview The ER server is located either in the home domain (same as the EAP server) or in the local domain (same as the authenticator, when it differs from the home domain). When the peer initiates an ERP exchange, the authenticator creates a DER message [RFC4072]. The Application Id of the message is set to that of the Diameter ERP application (Section 10.1) in the message. The generation of the ERP/DER message is detailed in Section 6. If there is an ER server in the same domain as the authenticator (i.e., the local domain), Diameter routing MUST be configured so that this ERP/DER message reaches that server, even if the Destination- Realm is not the same as the local domain. If there is no local ER server, the message is routed according to its Destination-Realm AVP content, extracted from the realm component of the keyName-NAI attribute. As specified in RFC 6696, this realm is the home domain of the peer in the case of bootstrapping exchange ('B' flag is set in ERP message) or the domain of the bootstrapped ER server otherwise. If no ER server is available in the home domain either, the ERP/DER message cannot be delivered and an error, DIAMETER_UNABLE_TO_DELIVER, MUST be generated, as specified in RFC 6733, and returned to the authenticator. The authenticator MAY cache this information (with limited duration) to avoid further attempts to execute ERP with this realm. It MAY also fallback to full EAP authentication to authenticate the peer. When an ER server receives the ERP/DER message, it searches its local database for a valid, unexpired root key matching the keyName part of the User-Name AVP. If such key is found, the ER server processes the Bournelle, et al. Standards Track [Page 5] RFC 6942 Diameter ERP Application May 2013 ERP message, as described in RFC 6696, then creates the ERP/DEA answer, as described in Section 6. The re-authentication Master Session Key (rMSK) is included in this answer. Finally, the authenticator extracts the rMSK from the ERP/DEA, as described in RFC 6696, and forwards the content of the EAP-Payload AVP, the EAP-Finish/Re-auth message, to the peer. The ER server may or may not possess the root key in its local database. If the EAP-Initiate/Re-auth message has its 'B' flag set (bootstrapping exchange) and the ER server possesses the root key, the ER server SHOULD respond directly to the peer that initiated the ERP exchange. Otherwise, the ER server SHOULD act as a proxy and forward the message to the home EAP server after changing its Application Id to Diameter EAP and adding the ERP-RK-Request AVP to request the root key. See Section 5 for more detail on this process. 5. Bootstrapping the ER Server The bootstrapping process involves the home EAP server and the ER server, but also impacts the peer and the authenticator. In ERP, the peer must derive the same keying material as the ER server. To achieve this, it must learn the domain name of the ER server. How this information is acquired is outside the scope of this specification, but the authenticator might be configured to advertise this domain name, especially in the case of re-authentication after a handover. The bootstrapping of an ER server with a given root key happens either during the initial EAP authentication of the peer when the EMSK -- from which the root key is derived -- is created, during the first re-authentication, or sometime between those events. We only consider the first two possibilities in this specification, in the following subsections. 5.1. Bootstrapping during the Initial EAP Authentication Bootstrapping the ER server during the initial EAP authentication (also known as implicit bootstrapping) offers the advantage that the server is immediately available for re-authentication of the peer, thus minimizing the re-authentication delay. On the other hand, it is possible that only a small number of peers will use re-authentication in the local domain. Deriving and caching key material for all the peers (for example, for the peers that do not support ERP) is a waste of resources and should be avoided. Bournelle, et al. Standards Track [Page 6] RFC 6942 Diameter ERP Application May 2013 To achieve implicit bootstrapping, the ER server acts as a Diameter EAP Proxy, and Diameter routing MUST be configured so that Diameter EAP application messages are routed through this proxy. The figure below illustrates this mechanism. ER server & Authenticator EAP Proxy Home EAP server ============= =========== =============== -------------------------> Diameter EAP/DER (EAP-Response) -------------------------> Diameter EAP/DER (EAP-Response) (ERP-RK-Request) <==================================================> Multi-round Diameter EAP exchanges, unmodified <------------------------- Diameter EAP/DEA (EAP-Success) (MSK) (Key AVP (rRK)) <------------------------- Diameter EAP/DEA (EAP-Success) (MSK) [ERP-Realm] Figure 2: ERP Bootstrapping during Full EAP Authentication The authenticator creates the first DER of the full EAP authentication and sends it to the ER server. The ER server proxies the first DER of the full EAP authentication and adds the ERP-RK-Request AVP inside, then forwards the request to the home EAP server. If the home Diameter server does not support the Diameter ERP extensions, it simply ignores the ERP-RK-Request AVP and continues as specified in RFC 4072 [RFC4072]. If the server supports the ERP extensions, it saves the value of the ERP-Realm AVP found inside the ERP-RK-Request AVP, and continues with the EAP authentication. When the authentication completes, if it is successful and the EAP method has generated an EMSK, the server MUST derive the rRK as specified in RFC 6696, using the saved ERP realm name. It then includes the rRK inside a Key AVP (Section 8.3) with the Key-Type AVP set to rRK, before sending the DEA as usual. Bournelle, et al. Standards Track [Page 7] RFC 6942 Diameter ERP Application May 2013 When the ER server proxies a Diameter-EAP-Answer message with a Session-Id corresponding to a message to which it added an ERP-RK-Request AVP, and the Result-Code is DIAMETER_SUCCESS, it MUST examine the message and save and remove any Key AVP (Section 8.3) with Key-Type AVP set to rRK. If the message does not contain such a Key AVP, the ER server may cache the information that re-authentication via ERP is not possible for the session in order to avoid any subsequent attempts. In any case, the information stored in the ER server concerning a session should not have a lifetime greater than the EMSK for this session. If the ER server is successfully bootstrapped, it should also add the ERP-Realm AVP after removing the Key AVP with Key-Type of rRK in the EAP/DEA message. This ERP-Realm information can be used by the authenticator to notify the peer that the ER server is bootstrapped, and for which domain. How this information can be transmitted to the peer is outside the scope of this document. This information needs to be sent to the peer if both implicit and explicit bootstrapping mechanisms are possible, because the ERP message and the root key used for protecting this message are different in bootstrapping exchanges and non-bootstrapping exchanges. 5.2. Bootstrapping during the First Re-authentication Bootstrapping the ER server during the first re-authentication (also known as explicit bootstrapping) is only needed when there is no ER server in the local domain and there is an ER server in the home domain. It is less resource intensive, since the EMSK generated during initial EAP authentication is reused to derive root keys. On the other hand, the first re-authentication requires a one-round-trip exchange with the home EAP server, since the EMSK is generated during the initial EAP authentication and never leaves the home EAP server, which is less efficient than implicit bootstrapping. The EAP-Initiate/Re-auth message is sent to the home ER server. The home ER server receives the ERP/DER message containing the EAP-Initiate/Re-auth message with the 'B' flag set. It creates the new EAP/DER message using the received ERP/DER message and performs the following processing: Set the Application Id in the header of the message to <Diameter EAP> [RFC4072]. Extract the ERP-RK-Request AVP from the ERP/DER message, which contains the name of the domain where the ER server is located, and add it to the newly created ERP/DER message. Bournelle, et al. Standards Track [Page 8] RFC 6942 Diameter ERP Application May 2013 Then, the newly created EAP/DER is sent and routed to the home Diameter EAP application server. If the home Diameter EAP server does not support ERP extensions, EAP packets with an unknown ERP-specific code (EAP-Initiate) will not be understood. In such a case, the home Diameter EAP server MUST send an EAP/DEA with a Result-Code indicating a Permanent Failure (for example, DIAMETER_ERROR_EAP_CODE_UNKNOWN or DIAMETER_UNABLE_TO_COMPLY). The Failed-AVP AVP MUST be included and contain a copy of the EAP-Payload AVP. Otherwise, it processes the DSRK request, as described in RFC 6696. In particular, it includes the Domain-Name TLV attribute with the content from the ERP-Realm AVP. The server creates the EAP/DEA reply message [RFC4072], including an instance of the Key AVP (Section 8.3) with the Key-Type AVP set to rRK and an instance of the Domain-Name TLV attribute with the content from the ERP-Realm AVP. The ER server receives this EAP/DEA and proxies it as follows, in addition to standard proxy operations: Set the Application Id back to Diameter ERP Application Id (Section 10.1). Extract and cache the content of the Key AVP with Key-Type set to rRK, as described in Section 5.1). The ERP/DEA message is then forwarded to the authenticator that can use the rMSK as described in RFC 6696. Bournelle, et al. Standards Track [Page 9] RFC 6942 Diameter ERP Application May 2013 The figure below captures this proxy behavior: Authenticator ER server Home Diameter server ============= ========= ==================== -----------------------> Diameter ERP/DER (EAP-Initiate) ------------------------> Diameter EAP/DER (EAP-Response) (ERP-RK-Request) <------------------------ Diameter EAP/DEA (EAP-Success) (Key AVP (rRK)) (Key AVP (rMSK)) <---------------------- Diameter ERP/DEA (EAP-Finish) (Key AVP (rMSK)) Figure 3: ERP Explicit Bootstrapping Message Flow Bournelle, et al. Standards Track [Page 10] RFC 6942 Diameter ERP Application May 2013 6. Re-authentication This section describes in detail a re-authentication exchange with an ER server that was previously bootstrapped. The following figure summarizes the re-authentication exchange. ER server Peer Authenticator (bootstrapped) ==== ============= ====================== [ <------------------------ ] [optional EAP-Initiate/Re-auth-start,] [ possibly with ERP domain name ] -----------------------> EAP-Initiate/Re-auth ===============================> Diameter ERP, cmd code DER User-Name: keyName-NAI EAP-Payload: EAP-Initiate/Re-auth <=============================== Diameter ERP, cmd code DEA EAP-Payload: EAP-Finish/Re-auth Key AVP: rMSK <---------------------- EAP-Finish/Re-auth Figure 4: Diameter ERP Re-authentication Exchange The peer sends an EAP-Initiate/Re-auth message to the ER server via the authenticator. Alternatively, the authenticator may send an EAP-Initiate/Re-auth-Start message to the peer to trigger the mechanism. In this case, the peer responds with an EAP-Initiate/Re-auth message. If the authenticator does not support ERP (pure Diameter EAP [RFC4072] support), it discards the EAP packets with an unknown ERP- specific code (EAP-Initiate). The peer should fall back to full EAP authentication in this case. When the authenticator receives an EAP-Initiate/Re-auth message from the peer, the message is processed as described in RFC 6696, with regard to the EAP state machine. It creates a Diameter ERP/DER message following the general process of Diameter EAP [RFC4072], with the following differences: Bournelle, et al. Standards Track [Page 11] RFC 6942 Diameter ERP Application May 2013 The Application Id in the header is set to <Diameter ERP> (code 13). The value in the Auth-Application-Id AVP is also set to <Diameter ERP>. The keyName-NAI attribute from the ERP message is used to create the content of the User-Name and Destination-Realm AVPs. The Auth-Request-Type AVP content is set to the appropriate value. The EAP-Payload AVP contains the EAP-Initiate/Re-auth message. Then, this ERP/DER message is sent as described in Section 4. The ER server receives and processes this request as described in Section 4. It then creates an ERP/DEA message following the general process described in Eronen, et al. [RFC4072], with the following differences: The Application Id in the header is set to <Diameter ERP> (code 13). The value of the Auth-Application-Id AVP is also set to <Diameter ERP>. The EAP-Payload AVP contains the EAP-Finish/Re-auth message. If authentication is successful, an instance of the Key AVP containing the rMSK derived by ERP is included. When the authenticator receives this ERP/DEA answer, it processes it as described in the Diameter EAP Application specification [RFC4072] and RFC 6696: the content of the EAP-Payload AVP is forwarded to the peer, and the contents of the Keying-Material AVP [RFC6734] is used as a shared secret for a secure association protocol specific to the lower layer in use. 7. Application Id We define a new Diameter application in this document, Diameter ERP, with an Application Id value of 13. Diameter nodes conforming to this specification in the role of the ER server MUST advertise support by including an Auth-Application-Id AVP with a value of Diameter ERP in the Capabilities-Exchange-Request and Capabilities-Exchange-Answer commands [RFC6733]. Bournelle, et al. Standards Track [Page 12] RFC 6942 Diameter ERP Application May 2013 The primary use of the Diameter ERP Application Id is to ensure proper routing of the messages, and that the nodes that advertise the support for this application do understand the new AVPs defined in Section 8, although these AVPs have the 'M' flag cleared. 8. AVPs The following subsections discuss the AVPs used by the Diameter ERP application. 8.1. ERP-RK-Request AVP The ERP-RK-Request AVP (AVP Code 618) is of type Grouped AVP. This AVP is used by the ER server to indicate its willingness to act as the ER server for a particular session. This AVP has the 'M' and 'V' bits cleared. ERP-RK-Request ::= < AVP Header: 618 > { ERP-Realm } * [ AVP ] Figure 5: ERP-RK-Request ABNF 8.2. ERP-Realm AVP The ERP-Realm AVP (AVP Code 619) is of type DiameterIdentity. It contains the name of the realm in which the ER server is located. This AVP has the 'M' and 'V' bits cleared. 8.3. Key AVP The Key AVP [RFC6734] is of type Grouped and is used to carry the rRK or rMSK and associated attributes. The usage of the Key AVP and its constituent AVPs in this application is specified in the following subsections. 8.3.1. Key-Type AVP The value of the Key-Type AVP MUST be set to 1 for rRK or 2 for rMSK. 8.3.2. Keying-Material AVP The Keying-Material AVP contains the rRK sent by the home EAP server to the ER server, in answer to a request containing an ERP-RK-Request AVP, or the rMSK sent by the ER server to the authenticator. How this material is derived and used is specified in RFC 6696. Bournelle, et al. Standards Track [Page 13] RFC 6942 Diameter ERP Application May 2013 8.3.3. Key-Name AVP This AVP contains the EMSKname that identifies the keying material. The derivation of this name is specified in RFC 6696. 8.3.4. Key-Lifetime AVP The Key-Lifetime AVP contains the lifetime of the keying material in seconds. It MUST NOT be greater than the remaining lifetime of the EMSK from which the material was derived. 9. Result-Code AVP Values This section defines new Result-Code [RFC6733] values that MUST be supported by all Diameter implementations that conform to this specification. 9.1. Permanent Failures Errors that fall within the Permanent Failures category are used to inform the peer that the request failed and SHOULD NOT be attempted again. DIAMETER_ERROR_EAP_CODE_UNKNOWN (5048) This error code is used by the Diameter server to inform the peer that the received EAP-Payload AVP contains an EAP packet with an unknown EAP code. 10. IANA Considerations IANA has registered the following new elements in the Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) Parameters registries [AAAPARAMS]. 10.1. Diameter Application Identifier IANA has allocated a new value "Diameter ERP" (code: 13) in the "Application IDs" registry from the "Standards Action" range of numbers using the "Specification Required" policy [RFC5226]; see Section 11.3 of RFC 3588 [RFC3588] for further details. Bournelle, et al. Standards Track [Page 14] RFC 6942 Diameter ERP Application May 2013 10.2. New AVPs IANA has allocated new values from the "AVP Codes" registry according to the policy specified in Section 11.1 of Fajardo, et al. [RFC6733] for the following AVPs: ERP-RK-Request (code: 618) ERP-Realm (code: 619) These AVPs are defined in Section 8. 10.3. New Permanent Failures Result-Code AVP Values IANA has allocated a new value from the "Result-Code AVP Values (code 268) - Permanent Failure" registry according to the policy specified in Section 11.3.2 of Fajardo, et al. [RFC6733] for the following Result-Code: DIAMETER_ERROR_EAP_CODE_UNKNOWN (code: 5048) This Result-Code value is defined in Section 9. 11. Security Considerations The security considerations from the following documents apply here: o Eronen, et al. [RFC4072] o Salowey, et al. [RFC5295] o Cao, et al. [RFC6696] o Fajardo, et al. [RFC6733] o Zorn, et al. [RFC6734] Because this application involves the transmission of sensitive data, including cryptographic keys, it MUST be protected using Transport Layer Security (TLS) [RFC5246], Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) [RFC6347], or IP Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) [RFC4303]. If TLS or DTLS is used, the bulk encryption algorithm negotiated MUST be non-null. If ESP is used, the encryption algorithm MUST be non-null. Bournelle, et al.
