Abstract

   This document specifies EAP-IKEv2, an Extensible Authentication
   Protocol (EAP) method that is based on the Internet Key Exchange
   (IKEv2) protocol.  EAP-IKEv2 provides mutual authentication and
   session key establishment between an EAP peer and an EAP server.  It
   supports authentication techniques that are based on passwords,
   high-entropy shared keys, and public key certificates.  EAP-IKEv2
   further provides support for cryptographic ciphersuite negotiation,
   hash function agility, identity confidentiality (in certain modes of
   operation), fragmentation, and an optional "fast reconnect" mode.

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


1.  Introduction

   This document specifies EAP-IKEv2, an EAP method that is based on the
   Internet Key Exchange Protocol version 2 (IKEv2) [1].  EAP-IKEv2
   provides mutual authentication and session key establishment between
   an EAP peer and an EAP server.  It supports authentication techniques
   that are based on the following types of credentials:

   o  Asymmetric key pairs: these are public/private key pairs where the
      public key is embedded into a digital certificate, and the
      corresponding private key is known only to a single party.

   o  Passwords: these are low-entropy bit strings that are known to
      both the server and the peer.

   o  Symmetric keys: these are high-entropy bit strings that are known
      to both the server and the peer.

   It is possible to use a different authentication credential (and
   thereby technique) for each direction, e.g., the EAP server may
   authenticate itself using a public/private key pair and the EAP
   client may authenticate itself using a symmetric key.  In particular,
   the following combinations are expected to be used in practice; these
   are referred to as "use cases" or "modes" in the remainder of this
   document:

   1.  EAP server: asymmetric key pair, EAP peer: asymmetric key pair

   2.  EAP server: asymmetric key pair, EAP peer: symmetric key

   3.  EAP server: asymmetric key pair, EAP peer: password

   4.  EAP server: symmetric key, EAP peer: symmetric key

   Note that in use cases 2 and 4, a symmetric key is assumed to be
   chosen uniformly at random from its key space; it is therefore
   assumed that symmetric keys are not derived from passwords.  Deriving
   a symmetric key from a password is insecure when used with mode 4
   since the exchange is vulnerable to dictionary attacks, as described
   in more detail in Section 10.7.  Also note that in use case 3, the
   EAP server must either have access to all passwords in plaintext, or,
   alternatively, for each password store, the value prf(password,"Key
   Pad for EAP-IKEv2") for all supported pseudorandom functions (also

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


   see Section 8.10 below and Section 2.15 of [1]).  Other conceivable
   use cases are not expected to be used in practice due to key
   management issues, and have not been considered in this document.

   Note that the IKEv2 protocol is able to carry EAP exchanges.  By
   contrast, EAP-IKEv2 does not inherit this capability.  That is, it is
   not possible to tunnel EAP methods inside EAP-IKEv2.  Also note that
   the set of functionality provided by EAP-IKEv2 is similar, but not
   identical, to that provided by other EAP methods such as, for
   example, EAP-TLS [6].

   The remainder of this document is structured as follows:

   o  Section 2 provides an overview of the terminology and the
      abbreviations used in this document.

   o  Section 3 provides an overview of the full EAP-IKEv2 exchange and
      thereby specifies the protocol message composition.

   o  Section 4 specifies the optional EAP-IKEv2 "fast reconnect" mode
      of operation.

   o  Section 5 specifies how exportable session keys are derived.

   o  Section 6 specifies how the Session-ID, Peer-ID, and Server-ID
      elements are derived.

   o  Section 7 specifies how errors that may potentially occur during
      protocol execution are handled.

   o  Section 8 specifies the format of the EAP-IKEv2 data fields.
      Section 8.1 describes how fragmentation is handled in EAP-IKEv2.

   o  Section 9 specifies the payload type values and describes protocol
      extensibility.

   o  Section 10 provides a list of claimed security properties.

3.  Protocol Overview

   In this section, the full EAP-IKEv2 protocol run is specified.  All
   messages are sent between two parties, namely an EAP peer and an EAP
   server.  In EAP-IKEv2, the EAP server always assumes the role of the
   initiator (I), and the EAP peer that of the responder (R) of an
   exchange.

   The semantics and formats of EAP-IKEv2 messages are similar, albeit
   not identical, to those specified in IKEv2 [1] for the establishment
   of an IKE Security Association.  The full EAP-IKEv2 protocol run
   consists of two roundtrips that are followed by either an EAP-Success
   or an EAP-Failure message.  An optional roundtrip for exchanging EAP
   identities may precede the two exchanges.

             Figure 1: EAP-IKEv2 Full, Successful Protocol Run

   Figure 1 shows the full EAP-IKEv2 protocol run, including the
   optional EAP identity exchange (messages 1 and 2).  A detailed
   specification of the message composition follows.

   Messages 1 and 2 are a standard EAP Identity Request and Response, as
   defined in [2].  Message 3 is the first EAP-IKEv2-specific message.
   With this, the server starts the actual EAP authentication exchange.
   It contains the initiator Security Parameter Index (SPI) in the EAP-
   IKEv2 header (HDR) (the initiator selects a new SPI for each protocol
   run), the set of cryptographic algorithms the server is willing to
   accept for the protection of EAP-IKEv2 traffic (encryption and
   integrity protection), and the derivation of the session key.  This
   set is encoded in the Security Association payload (SAi).  It also
   contains a Diffie-Hellman payload (KEi), and a Nonce payload (Ni).

   When the peer receives message 3, it selects a set of cryptographic
   algorithms from the ones that are proposed in the message.  In this
   overview, it is assumed that an acceptable such set exists (and is
   thus selected), and that the Diffie-Hellman value KEi belongs to an
   acceptable group.  The peer then generates a non-zero Responder SPI
   value for this protocol run, its own Diffie-Hellman value (KEr) and
   nonce (Nr), and calculates the keys SKEYSEED, SK_d, SK_ai, SK_ar,
   SK_ei, SK_er, SK_pi, and SK_pr, according to Section 2.14 of [1].
   The peer then constructs message 4.  In the context of use cases 1,
   2, and 3, the peer's local policy MAY dictate the inclusion of the
   optional CERTREQ payload in that message, which gives a hint to the
   server to include a certificate for its public key in its next
   message.  In the context of use case 4, the peer MUST include the
   optional SK{IDr} payload, which contains its EAP-IKEv2 identifier,
   encrypted and integrity-protected within an Encrypted payload.  The
   keys used to construct this Encrypted payload are SK_er (for
   encryption) and SK_ar (for integrity protection), in accordance with



Tschofenig, et al.            Experimental                      [Page 7]

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


   [1].  The responder's EAP-IKEv2 identifier (IDr) is likely to be
   needed in these use cases by the server in order to select the
   correct symmetric key or password for the construction of the AUTH
   payload of message 5.

   Upon reception of message 4, the server also computes SKEYSEED, SK_d,
   SK_ai, SK_ar, SK_ei, SK_er, SK_pi, and SK_pr, according to Section
   2.14 of [1].  If an SK{IDr} payload is included, the server decrypts
   it and verifies its integrity with the corresponding keys.  In this
   overview, decryption and verification is assumed to succeed.  The
   server then constructs message 5, which contains only the EAP-IKEv2
   header followed by a single Encrypted payload.  The keys used to
   generate the encrypted payload MUST be SK_ei (for encryption) and
   SK_ai (for integrity protection), in accordance with [1].  The
   initiator MUST embed at least two payloads in the Encrypted Payload,
   as follows.  An Identification payload with the initiator's EAP-IKEv2
   identifier MUST be embedded in the Encrypted payload.  The
   Authentication payload MUST be embedded in the Encrypted payload.  A
   Certificate payload, and/or a Certificate Request payload, MAY also
   be embedded in the Encrypted payload.  Moreover, a Next Fast-
   Reconnect Identifier payload MAY also be embedded in the Encrypted
   payload.  Message 5 is sent to the responder.

   Upon reception of message 5, the responder (EAP peer) authenticates
   the initiator (EAP server).  The checks that are performed to this
   end depend on the use case, local policies, and are specified in [1].
   These checks include (but may not be limited to) decrypting the
   Encrypted payload, verifying its integrity, and checking that the
   Authentication payload contains the expected value.  If all checks
   succeed (which is assumed in this overview), then the responder
   constructs message 6.  That message MUST contain the EAP-IKEv2 header
   followed by a single Encrypted payload, in which at least two further
   payloads MUST be embedded, as shown in Figure 1.

   Upon reception of message 6, the initiator (EAP server) authenticates
   the responder (EAP peer).  As above, the checks that are performed to
   this end depend on the use case, local policies, and MUST include
   decryption and verification of the Encrypted payload, as well as
   checking that the Authentication payload contains the expected value.
   If the optional SK{IDr} payload was included in message 4, the EAP
   server MUST also ensure that the IDr payload in message 6 is
   identical to that in message 4.

   If authentication succeeds, an EAP-Success message is sent to the
   responder as message 7.  The EAP server and the EAP peer generate a
   Master Session Key (MSK) and an Extended Master Session Key (EMSK)
   after a successful EAP-IKEv2 protocol run, according to Section 5.

4.  Fast Reconnect

   This section specifies a "fast reconnect" mode of operation for EAP-
   IKEv2.  This mode is mandatory to implement, but optional to use.
   The purpose of fast reconnect is to enable an efficient re-
   authentication procedure that also results in a fresh MSK and EMSK.
   The "fast reconnect" mode can only be used where an EAP-IKEv2
   security context already exists at both the server and the peer, and
   its usage is subject to the local policies.  In other words, it can
   only be used by an EAP server/EAP peer pair that has already
   performed mutual authentication in a previous EAP-IKEv2 protocol run.

   The fast reconnect mode makes use of dedicated "fast reconnect EAP
   identifiers".  The idea is that the server indicates its willingness
   to engage in "fast reconnect" protocol runs in the future by
   including the optional "Next Fast-ID" (NFID) payload in message 5 of
   a "full" protocol run (see Figure 1), or in message 3 of a "fast
   reconnect" protocol run (see Figure 2).  This NFID payload contains a
   special EAP identity, denoted Fast Reconnect Identity (FRID) as the
   Network Access Identifier (NAI) in the EAP-Response/Identity message.
   The FRID contains an obfuscated username part and a realm part.  When
   generating a FRID, the following aspects should be considered:

      The FRID and therefore the pseudonym usernames are generated by
      the EAP server.  The EAP server produces pseudonym usernames in an
      implementation-dependent manner.  Only the EAP server needs to be
      able to map the pseudonym username to the permanent identity.

      EAP-IKEv2 includes no provisions to ensure that the same EAP
      server that generated a pseudonym username will be used on the
      authentication exchange when the pseudonym username is used.  It
      is recommended that the EAP servers implement some centralized
      mechanism to allow all EAP servers of the home operator to map
      pseudonyms generated by other severs to the permanent identity.
      If no such mechanism is available, then the EAP server, failing to
      understand a pseudonym issued by another server, can request the
      peer to send the permanent identity.

      When generating FRIDs, the server SHOULD choose a fresh and unique
      FRID that is different from the previous ones that were used after
      the same full authentication exchange.  The FRID SHOULD include a
      random component in the username part.  The random component works
      as a reference to the security context.  Regardless of the
      construction method, the pseudonym username MUST conform to the
      grammar specified for the username portion of an NAI.  Also, the
      FRID MUST conform to the NAI grammar [4].  The EAP servers, which
      subscribers of an operator can use, MUST ensure that the username
      part of a FRIDs that they generate are unique.



Tschofenig, et al.            Experimental                      [Page 9]

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


   The peer MAY use the FRID to indicate to start a "fast reconnect"
   protocol run.  The EAP Identity Response MUST be sent at the
   beginning of a "fast reconnect" protocol run.  If, in the previous
   successful "full" (resp. "fast reconnect") EAP-IKEv2 protocol
   execution, the server had not included an NFID payload in message 5
   (resp. 3), then the peer MUST NOT start a fast reconnect protocol
   run.  On reception of FRID, the server maps it to an existing EAP-
   IKEv2 security context.  Depending on local policy, the server either
   proceeds with the "fast reconnect" protocol run, or proceeds with
   message 3 of a "full" protocol run.  If the server had advertised the
   FRID in the previous EAP-IKEv2 protocol execution, it SHOULD proceed
   with a "fast reconnect" protocol run.  The peer MUST be able to
   correctly handle a message 3 of a "full" protocol run, even if it
   indicated a FRID in its EAP Identity Response.

   Because the peer may fail to save a FRID that was sent in the NFID
   payload (for example, due to malfunction), the EAP server SHOULD
   maintain, at least, the most recently used FRID in addition to the
   most recently issued FRID.  If the authentication exchange is not
   completed successfully, then the server MUST NOT overwrite the FRID
   that was issued during the most recent successful authentication
   exchange.

   The EAP-IKEv2 fast reconnect exchange is similar to the IKE-SA
   rekeying procedure, as specified in Section 2.18 of [1].  Thus, it
   uses a CREATE_CHILD_SA request and response.  The SPIs on those two
   messages would be the SPIs negotiated on the previous exchange.
   During fast reconnect, the server and the peer MAY exchange fresh
   Diffie-Hellman values.

   1. R<-I: EAP-Request/Identity

   2. R->I: EAP-Response/Identity(FRID)

   3. R<-I: EAP-Req(HDR, SK{SA, Ni, [KEi], [NFID]})

   4. R->I: EAP-Res(HDR, SK{SA, Nr, [KEr]})

   5. R<-I: EAP-Success

                   Figure 2: Fast Reconnect Protocol Run

   Figure 2 shows the message exchange for the EAP-IKEv2 fast reconnect
   mode.  As in the full mode, the EAP server is the initiator and the
   EAP peer is the responder.  The first two messages constitute the
   standard EAP identity exchange.  Note that, in order to use the "fast
   reconnect" mode, message 2 MUST be sent.  This is in order to enable
   the peer to indicate its "fast reconnect" identity FRID in message 2.



Tschofenig, et al.            Experimental                     [Page 10]

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


   If the server can map the FRID to an existing EAP-IKEv2 context it
   proceeds with message 3.  Note that, in this message, the server MAY
   embed an NFID payload into the encrypted payload to provide a new
   FRID to the peer.  The server MAY choose to perform a full EAP-IKEv2
   run, in which case, it would respond with a message that conforms to
   the format of message 3 in Figure 1.

   Messages 3 and 4 establish a new EAP-IKEv2 security context.  In
   message 3, the initiator MUST select a new (non-zero) value for the
   SPI field in each proposal substructure in the SA payload (see
   Section 3.3 of [1]).  The value of the IKE_SA Responder's SPI field
   in HDR MUST be the one from the previous successful EAP-IKEv2
   protocol run.  The nonce inside the Nonce payload (Ni) MUST be fresh,
   and the Diffie-Hellman value inside the Diffie-Hellman payload (if
   present, KEi) MUST also be fresh.  If present, the Diffie-Hellman
   value MUST be drawn from the same group as the Diffie-Hellman value
   in the previous successful full EAP-IKEv2 protocol run.  Note that
   the algorithms and keys that are used to construct the Encrypted
   payload in message 3 are the same as in the previous successful EAP-
   IKEv2 protocol run.

   Upon reception of message 3, the responder (EAP peer) decrypts and
   verifies the Encrypted payload.  If successful (as assumed in Figure
   2), it constructs message 4 in a fashion similar to the construction
   of message 3.  The responder MUST choose a new (non-zero) value for
   the SPI field in each proposal substructure.  Upon reception of
   message 4, the initiator (EAP server) decrypts and verifies the
   Encrypted payload.  If a correct message 4 is received, then this
   protocol run is deemed successful, and the server responds with an
   EAP-Success message (message 5).

   After successful EAP-IKEv2 fast reconnect protocol run, both the
   initiator and the responder generate fresh keying material that is
   used for the protection of subsequent EAP-IKEv2 traffic.
   Furthermore, both the initiator and the responder MUST generate a
   fresh MSK and EMSK and export them.

   The new EAP-IKEv2-specific keying material is computed in the same
   way as in the full EAP-IKEv2 protocol run, and in accordance with
   Section 2.18 of [1].  That is, SKEYSEED is computed as SKEYSEED =
   prf(SK_d (old), [g^ir (new)] | Ni | Nr), where SK_d (old) is the key
   SK_d from the previous successful EAP-IKEv2 protocol run, Ni and Nr
   are the nonces (without the Nonce payload headers) that were
   exchanged in messages 3 and 4, and g^ir (new) is the newly computed
   Diffie-Hellman key, if both the values KEi and KEr were present in
   messages 3 and 4.  The remaining EAP-IKEv2-specific keys (SK_d,
   SK_ai, SK_ar, SK_ei, SK_er, SK_pi, and SK_pr) are generated as in the
   full EAP-IKEv2 protocol run.



Tschofenig, et al.            Experimental                     [Page 11]

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


   The generation of a fresh MSK and EMSK follows the generation of the
   EAP-IKEv2-specific keys and adheres to the rules in Section 5.

   Note 1: In EAP-IKEv2, the EAP server initiates the fast reconnect
   mode and thereby causes fresh session keys to be established.

   Note 2: It is conceivable that an adversary tries to launch a replay
   attack against the EAP-IKEv2 fast reconnect mode of operation.  In
   particular, the adversary may try to send a previously captured
   message 3 in a subsequent fast reconnect protocol run.  This replay
   attempt will, however, fail because the keys that the responder will
   use to verify and decrypt the Encrypted payload are changed with
   every successful reconnect protocol run.

5.  Key Derivation

   This section describes how the Master Session Key (MSK) and the
   Extended Master Session Key (EMSK) are derived in EAP-IKEv2.  It is
   expected that the MSK and the EMSK are exported by the EAP-IKEv2
   process and be used in accordance with the EAP keying framework [7].

   During an EAP-IKEv2 protocol run, the initiator and the responder
   generate a number of keys, as described above and in accordance with
   Section 2.14 of [1].  The generation of these keys is based on a
   pseudorandom function (prf) that both parties have agreed to use and
   that is applied in an iterative fashion.  This iterative fashion is
   specified in Section 2.13 of [1] and is denoted by prf+.

   In particular, following a successful EAP-IKEv2 protocol run, both
   parties generate 128 octets of keying material, denoted KEYMAT, as
   KEYMAT = prf+(SK_d, Ni | Nr), where Ni and Nr are the nonces (just
   payload without headers) from messages 3 and 4 shown in Figure 1 (in
   the context of a full EAP-IKEv2 protocol run) or Figure 2 (in the
   context of a fast reconnect EAP-IKEv2 protocol run).  Note that only
   the nonces are used, i.e., not the entire Nonce payload that contains
   them.

   The first 64 octets of KEYMAT are exported as the EAP MSK, and the
   second 64 octets are exported as the EMSK.

   The MSK and EMSK MUST NOT be generated unless an EAP-IKEv2 protocol
   run completes successfully.  Note that the EAP-IKEv2 method does not
   produce an initialisation vector [7].








Tschofenig, et al.            Experimental                     [Page 12]

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


6.  Session ID, Peer ID, and Server ID

   The EAP key management framework [7] requires that EAP methods export
   three information elements, called the Session-ID, the Peer-ID, and
   the Server-ID.  In EAP-IKEv2, these elements are derived as follows:

   o  The Session-ID is constructed and exported as the concatenation of
      the following three elements, in this order: (a) the EAP Code Type
      for EAP-IKEv2 (to be defined by IANA), (b) the contents of the
      Nonce Data field of the Nonce Payload Ni from message 3, (c) the
      contents of the Nonce Data field of the Nonce Payload Nr from
      message 4.

   o  In case of a full EAP-IKEv2 protocol run, the Peer-ID is
      constructed and exported as the content of the Identification Data
      field of the Identification Payload IDr from message 6.  Note that
      only the "actual" identification data is exported, as indicated in
      the Payload Length field; if the Identification Data field
      contains any padding, this padding is ignored.  In case of a "fast
      reconnect" protocol run, the Peer-ID field is constructed in
      exactly the same manner, where message 6 refers to the full EAP-
      IKEv2 protocol run that originally established the security
      context between the EAP peer and EAP server.

   o  In case of a full EAP-IKEv2 protocol run, the Server-ID is
      constructed and exported as the contents of the Identification
      Data field of the Identification Payload IDi from message 5.  Note
      that only the "actual" identification data is exported, as
      indicated in the Payload Length field; if the Identification Data
      field contains any padding, this padding is ignored.  In case of a
      "fast reconnect" protocol run, the Server-ID field is constructed
      in exactly the same manner, where message 5 refers to the full
      EAP-IKEv2 protocol run that originally established the security
      context between the EAP peer and EAP server.

7.  Error Handling

   This section specifies how errors are handled within EAP-IKEv2.  For
   conveying error information from one party to the other, the Notify
   payload is defined and used (see Section 8.11).

   If, in a full EAP-IKEv2 protocol run, authentication fails (i.e., the
   verification of the AUTH field fails at the server or the peer), but
   no other errors have occurred, the message flow deviates from that
   described in Section 3.  The message flows in the presence of
   authentication failures are specified in Appendix A.





Tschofenig, et al.            Experimental                     [Page 13]

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


   If, in message 3 of a full EAP-IKEv2 protocol run (see Figure 1), the
   responder receives a Diffie-Hellman value (KEi) that belongs to a
   group that is not supported (and in the absence of other errors),
   then the responder MUST send a message of the form shown in Figure 3
   to the initiator.  This effectively becomes message 4 in the full
   protocol run.

   1. R<-I: EAP-Request/Identity

   2. R->I: EAP-Response/Identity(Id)

   3. R<-I: EAP-Req (HDR, SAi, KEi, Ni)

   4. R->I: EAP-Res (HDR, N(INVALID_KE_PAYLOAD))

         Figure 3: Error Handling in Case of Unsupported D-H Value

   The above message consists of the EAP-IKEv2 header and a Notification
   payload with the value of the Notify Message Type field value set to
   17 (INVALID_KE_PAYLOAD).  There is a two-octet value associated with
   this notification: the number of the selected DH Group in big endian
   order, as specified in Section 3.10.1 of [1].  This number MUST
   represent a DH group that is supported by both the initiator and the
   responder.

   If, during a full EAP-IKEv2 protocol run (see Figure 1), the
   initiator receives a message conforming to Figure 3 instead of the
   usual message 4, then it MUST check whether or not the indicated DH
   group was proposed in message 3.  If it was not, then the initiator
   MUST silently discard the message.  Otherwise, the protocol continues
   with a new message 3 that the initiator sends to the peer.  In this
   new message 3, the initiator MUST use a Diffie-Hellman value that is
   drawn from the group that is indicated in the Notify payload of
   message 4 in Figure 3.

   If, in the context of use case 4 and during a full EAP-IKEv2 protocol
   run (see Figure 1), the initiator receives, in message 4, an SK{IDr}
   payload that decrypts to a non-existent or unauthorised EAP-IKEv2
   responder identifier IDr*, then the server SHOULD continue the
   protocol with a message conforming to the format of message 5.  The
   AUTH payload in that message SHOULD contain a value that is
   computationally indistinguishable from a value that it would contain
   if IDr* was valid and authorised.  This can be accomplished, for
   example, by generating a random key and calculating AUTH as usual
   (however, this document does not mandate a specific mechanism).  Only
   after receiving message 6, the server SHOULD respond with an





Tschofenig, et al.            Experimental                     [Page 14]

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


   authentication failure notification, i.e., a message conforming to
   message 6 in Figure 10.  The purpose of this behaviour is to prevent
   an adversary from probing the EAP-IKEv2 peer identifier space.

   If, in the context of use cases 1, 2, or 3 and during a full EAP-
   IKEv2 protocol run (see Figure 1), the initiator receives, in message
   4, an SK{IDr} payload that decrypts to an EAP-IKEv2 responder
   identifier IDr*, then the server MUST continue the protocol as usual
   (note that such a payload would not be required in these use cases).
   The server MUST compare IDr* with the IDr received in message 6 and,
   in case of a mismatch, MUST respond with an authentication failure
   notification, i.e., a message conforming to message 6 in Figure 10.
   If no mismatch is detected, normal processing applies.

   Other errors do not trigger messages with Notification payloads to be
   sent, and MUST be treated as if nothing happened (i.e., the erroneous
   EAP-IKEv2 packet MUST be silently discarded).  This includes
   situations where at least one of the following conditions is met,
   with respect to an incoming EAP-IKEv2 packet.

   o  The packet contains an Encrypted payload that, when decrypted with
      the appropriate key, yields an invalid decryption.

   o  The packet contains an Encrypted payload with a Checksum field
      that does not verify with the appropriate key.

   o  The packet contains an Integrity Checksum Data field (see *Figure
      4) that is incorrect.

   o  The packet does not contain a compulsory field.

   o  A field in the packet contains an invalid value (e.g., an invalid
      combination of flags, a length field that is inconsistent with the
      real length of the field or packet, or the responder's choice of a
      cryptographic algorithm is different to NONE and any of those that
      were offered by the initiator).

   o  The packet contains an invalid combination of fields (e.g., it
      contains two or more Notify payloads with the same Notify Message
      Type value, or two or more Transform substructures with the same
      Transform Type and Transform ID value).

   o  The packet causes a defragmentation error.

   o  The format of the packet is invalid.






Tschofenig, et al.            Experimental                     [Page 15]

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


   o  The identity provided by the EAP peer in the EAP-Response/Identity
      cannot be associated with either an established security context
      (in case of a fast reconnect) or with a real user account (in case
      of a full protocol exchange).  In that case, the packet is
      silently discarded.  With an outstanding message from the EAP
      server, the client may either retransmit the previous request or,
      in case of a fast reconnect, assume that state information was
      deleted (e.g., due to garbage collection) at the EAP server and
      fall back to a previously used FRID or to the full protocol
      exchange.

   If an incoming packet contains an error for which a behaviour is
   specified in this section, and an error that, in the absence of the
   former error, would cause the packet to be silently discarded, then
   the packet MUST be silently discarded.

8.  Specification of Protocol Fields

   In this section, the format of the EAP-IKEv2 data fields and
   applicable processing rules are specified.  Figure 4 shows the
   general packet format of EAP-IKEv2 messages, and the embedding of
   EAP-IKEv2 into EAP.  The EAP-IKEv2 messages are embedded in the Data
   field of the standard EAP Request/Response packets.  The Code,
   Identifier, Length, and Type fields are described in [2].  The EAP
   Type for this EAP method is 49.

               Figure 4: General Packet Format of EAP-IKEv2

   The Flags field is always present and is used for fragmentation
   support, as described in Section 8.1.  The Message Length field is
   not always present; its presence is determined by a certain flag in
   the Flags field, as described in Section 8.1.  The field denoted as
   "HDR + payloads" in Figure 4 contains the EAP-IKEv2 header (see
   Section 8.2), followed by the number of payloads, in accordance with
   the composition of EAP-IKEv2 messages, as described in the previous




Tschofenig, et al.            Experimental                     [Page 16]

   sections.  Note that each payload begins with a generic payload
   header that is specified in Section 3.2 of [1].

   The Integrity Checksum Data field is not always present; its presence
   is determined by a certain flag in the Flags field, as described in
   Section 8.1.

   In the remainder of this section, the protocol fields that are used
   in EAP-IKEv2 are specified.  This specification heavily relies on the
   IKEv2 specification [1], and many fields are constructed, formatted,
   and processed in way that is almost identical to that in IKEv2.
   However, certain deviations from standard IKEv2 formatting and
   processing exist.  These deviations are highlighted in the remainder
   of this section.

8.1.  The Flags, Message Length, and Integrity Checksum Data Fields

   This section describes EAP-IKEv2 fragmentation, and specifies the
   encoding and processing rules for the Flags, Message Length, and
   Integrity Checksum Data field shown in Figure 4.

   Fragmentation support in EAP-IKEv2 is provided by the Flags and
   Message Length fields shown in Figure 4.  These are encoded and used
   as follows:

    0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
   |L M I 0 0 0 0 0|
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

   L = Length included
   M = More fragments
   I = Integrity Checksum Data included

                           Figure 5: Flags Field

   The Flags field is defined in Figure 5.  Only the first three bits
   (0-2) are used; all remaining bits MUST be set to zero and ignored on
   receipt.  The L flag indicates the presence of a Message Length
   field, and the M flag indicates whether or not the current EAP
   message has more fragments.  In particular, if the L bit is set, then
   a Message Length field MUST be present in the EAP message, as shown
   in Figure 4.  The Message Length field is four octets long and
   contains the length of the entire message (i.e., the length of the
   EAP Data field.).  Note that, in contrast, the Length field shown in
   Figure 4 contains the length of only the current fragment.  (Note
   that there exist two fields that are related to length: the Length




Tschofenig, et al.            Experimental                     [Page 17]

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


   field, which is a generic EAP field, and the Message Length field,
   which is an EAP-IKEv2-specific field.)  If the L bit is not set, then
   the Message Length field MUST NOT be present.

   The M flag MUST be set on all fragments except the last one.  In the
   last fragment, the M flag MUST NOT be set.  Reliable fragment
   delivery is provided by the retransmission mechanism of EAP as
   described below.

   When an EAP-IKEv2 peer receives an EAP-Request packet with the M bit
   set, it MUST respond with an EAP-Response with EAP-Type=EAP-IKEv2 and
   no data.  This serves as a fragment ACK.  The EAP server MUST wait
   until it receives the EAP-Response before sending another fragment.
   In order to prevent errors in processing of fragments, the EAP server
   MUST increment the Identifier field for each fragment contained
   within an EAP-Request, and the peer MUST include this Identifier
   value in the fragment ACK contained within the EAP-Response.
   Retransmitted fragments will contain the same Identifier value.

   Similarly, when the EAP server receives an EAP-Response with the M
   bit set, it MUST respond with an EAP-Request with EAP-Type=EAP-IKEv2
   and no data.  This serves as a fragment ACK. The EAP peer MUST wait
   until it receives the EAP-Request before sending another fragment.
   In order to prevent errors in the processing of fragments, the EAP
   server MUST increment the Identifier value for each fragment ACK
   contained within an EAP-Request, and the peer MUST include this
   Identifier value in the subsequent fragment contained within an EAP-
   Response.

   The Integrity Checksum Data field contains a cryptographic checksum
   that covers the entire EAP message, starting with the Code field, and
   ending at the end of the EAP Data field.  This field, shown in Figure
   4, is present only if the I bit is set in the Flags field.  The
   Integrity Checksum Data field immediately follows the EAP Data field
   without padding.

   Whenever possible, the Integrity Checksum Data field MUST be present
   (and the I bit set) for each fragment, including the case where the
   entire EAP-IKEv2 message is carried in a single fragment.  The
   algorithm and keys that are used to compute the Integrity Checksum
   Data field MUST be identical to those used to compute the Integrity
   Checksum Data field of the Encrypted Payload (see Section 8.9).  That
   is, the algorithm and keys that were negotiated and established
   during this EAP-IKEv2 protocol run are used.  Note that this means
   that different keys are used to compute the Integrity Checksum Data
   field in each direction.  Also note that, for messages where this





Tschofenig, et al.            Experimental                     [Page 18]

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


   algorithm and the keys are not yet established, the Integrity
   Checksum Data field cannot be computed and is therefore not included.
   This applies, for example, to messages 3 and 4 in Figure 1.

   In order to minimize the exposure to denial-of-service attacks on
   fragmented packets, messages that are not protected with an Integrity
   Checksum Data field SHOULD NOT be fragmented.  Note, however, that
   those packets are not likely to be fragmented anyway since they do
   not carry certificates.

8.2.  EAP-IKEv2 Header

   The EAP-IKEv2 header, denoted HDR in this specification, is
   constructed and formatted according to the rules specified in Section
   3.1 of [1].

   In the first EAP-IKEv2 message that is sent by the initiator (message
   3 in Figure 1), the IKE_SA Responder's SPI field is set to zero.
   This is because, at this point in time, the initiator does not know
   what SPI value the responder will choose for this protocol run.  In
   all other messages, both SPI fields MUST contain non-zero values that
   reflect the initiator- and responder-chosen SPI values.

   In accordance with [1], for this version of EAP-IKEv2, the MjVer
   (major version) and MnVer (minor version) fields in the header MUST
   be 2 and 0 respectively.  The value of the Exchange Type field MUST
   be set to 34 (IKE_SA_INIT) in messages 3 and 4, and to 35
   (IKE_SA_AUTH) in messages 5 and 6 in Figure 1.  In messages 3 and 4
   in Figure 2, this value MUST be set to 36 (CREATE_CHILD_SA).

   The Flags field of the EAP-IKEv2 header is also constructed according
   to Section 3.1 of [1].  Note that this is not the same field as the
   Flags field shown in Figure 4.

   The Message ID field is constructed as follows.  Messages 3 and 4 in
   a full protocol run MUST carry Message ID value 0.  Messages 5 and 6
   in a full protocol run (see Figure 1) MUST carry Message ID value 1.
   Messages 3 and 4 in a fast reconnect protocol run MUST carry Message
   ID value 2.

8.3.  Security Association Payload

   The SA payload is used for the negotiation of cryptographic
   algorithms between the initiator and the responder.  The rules for
   its construction adhere to [1]; in particular, Sections 2.7 and 3.3.

   In EAP-IKEv2, all Proposal Substructures in the SA payload MUST carry
   Protocol ID value 1 (IKE).

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


8.4.  Key Exchange Payload

   The Key Exchange payload, denoted KEi if constructed by the initiator
   and KEr if constructed by the responder, is formatted according to
   the rules specified in Section 3.4 of [1].

8.5.  Nonce Payload

   The Nonce payload, denoted Ni if constructed by the initiator and Nr
   if constructed by the responder, is constructed and formatted
   according to the rules specified in Section 3.9 of [1].

8.6.  Identification Payload

   The Identification payload, denoted IDi if it contains an identifier
   for the initiator and IDr if it contains an identifier for the
   responder, is constructed and formatted according to the rules
   specified in Section 3.5 of [1].

8.7.  Certificate Payload

   The Certificate payload, denoted CERT, is constructed and formatted
   according to the rules specified in Section 3.6 of [1].  Note that
   certain certificate encodings for the EAP server certificate, e.g.,
   those that need to be resolved via another network protocol, cannot
   be used in some typical EAP-IKEv2 deployment scenarios.  A user, for
   example, that authenticates himself by means of EAP-IKEv2 in order to
   obtain network access, cannot resolve the server certificate at the
   time of EAP-IKEv2 protocol execution.

8.8.  Certificate Request Payload

   The Certificate Request payload, denoted CERTREQ, is constructed and
   formatted according to the rules specified in Section 3.7 of [1].

8.9.  Encrypted Payload

   The Encrypted payload, denoted SK{...}, is constructed and formatted
   according to the rules specified in Section 3.14 of [1].

8.10.  Authentication Payload

   The Authentication payload, denoted AUTH, is constructed and
   formatted according to the rules specified in Sections 2.15 and 3.8
   of [1].

   The contents of the Authentication payload depend on which party
   generates this field, the use case, and the algorithm that

   corresponds to the credential (asymmetric key, symmetric key, or
   password) that this party uses to authenticate itself.  The
   Authentication payload contains either a MAC or a signature.

   If the party that generates the Authentication payload authenticates
   itself based on a shared secret (i.e., a password or a symmetric
   key), then the Authentication payload MUST contain a MAC.  This MAC
   is calculated using a key that is derived from the shared secret,
   according to Section 2.15 of [1].  According to that section, the
   shared secret is padded with the string "Key Pad for IKEv2" as part
   of this key derivation.  For the EAP-IKEv2 method, this rule is
   overridden, in that the padding string is redefined as "Key Pad for
   EAP-IKEv2".  The latter padding string MUST be used for the
   derivation of the MAC key from a shared secret in the context of EAP-
   IKEv2.  This is done in order to avoid the same MAC key to be used
   for both IKEv2 and EAP-IKEv2 in scenarios where the same shared
   secret is used for both.  Note that using a shared secret (e.g., a
   password) in the context EAP-IKEv2 that is identical or similar to a
   shared secret that is used in another context (including IKEv2) is
   nevertheless NOT RECOMMENDED.

8.11.  Notify Payload

   The Notify payload, denoted N(...), is constructed and formatted
   according to the rules specified in Section 3.10 of [1].  The
   Protocol ID field of this payload MUST be set to 1 (IKE_SA).

8.12.  Next Fast-ID Payload

   The Next Fast-ID Payload is defined as follows:

                           1                   2                   3

                       Figure 6: NFID Payload Format

   The Next Fast-ID payload, denoted NFID, does not have an equivalent
   in IKEv2.  Nevertheless, the Next Payload, C, RESERVED, and Payload
   Length fields of this payload are constructed according to Section
   3.2 of [1].  The payload ID is registered in Section 11.  The Fast-
   Reconnect-ID field contains a fast reconnect identifier that the peer



Tschofenig, et al.            Experimental                     [Page 21]

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


   can use in the next fast reconnect protocol run, as described in
   Section 4.  In environments where a realm portion is required, Fast-
   Reconnect-ID includes both a username portion and a realm name
   portion.  The Fast-Reconnect-ID MUST NOT include any terminating null
   characters.  The encoding of the Fast-Reconnect-ID field MUST follow
   the NAI format [4].

9.  Payload Types and Extensibility

   In EAP-IKEv2, each payload is identified by means of a type field,
   which, as specified in [1], is indicated in the "Next Payload" field
   of the preceding payload.  However, the identifier space from which
   EAP-IKEv2 payload types are drawn is independent from the payload
   type space of IKEv2.  This is because EAP-IKEv2 and IKEv2 may evolve
   in a different way and, as such, payload types that appear in one
   protocol do not necessary appear in the other.  An example of this is
   the "Next Fast-ID" (NFID) payload, which does not exist in IKEv2.

   The values for the payload types defined in this document are listed
   in Section 11.  Payload type values 13-127 are reserved to IANA for
   future assignment in EAP-IKEv2.  Payload type values 128-255 are for
   private use among mutually consenting parties.

10.  Security Considerations

   As mentioned in Section 3, in EAP-IKEv2, the EAP server always
   assumes the role of the initiator (I), and the EAP peer takes on the
   role of the responder (R) of an exchange.  This is in order to ensure
   that, in scenarios where the peer authenticates itself based on a
   password (i.e., in use case 3), operations that involve this password
   only take place after the server has been successfully authenticated.
   In other words, this assignment of initiator and responder roles
   results in protection against offline dictionary attacks on the
   password that is used by the peer to authenticate itself (see Section
   10.7).

   In order for two EAP-IKEv2 implementations to be interoperable, they
   must support at least one common set of cryptographic algorithms.  In
   order to promote interoperability, EAP-IKEv2 implementations MUST
   support the following algorithms based on the "MUST/MUST-"
   recommendations given in [5]:

      Diffie-Hellman Groups: 1024 MODP Group
      IKEv2 Transform Type 1 Algorithms: ENCR_3DES
      IKEv2 Transform Type 2 Algorithms: PRF_HMAC_SHA1
      IKEv2 Transform Type 3 Algorithms: AUTH_HMAC_SHA1_96

   All other options of [5] MAY be implemented.



Tschofenig, et al.            Experimental                     [Page 22]

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


   The remainder of this section describes EAP-IKEv2 in terms of
   specific security terminology as required by [2].  The discussion
   makes reference to the use cases defined in Section 1.

10.1.  Protected Ciphersuite Negotiation

   In message 3, the EAP server provides the set of ciphersuites it is
   willing to accept in an EAP-IKEv2 protocol run.  Hence, the server is
   in control of the ciphersuite.  An EAP peer that does not support any
   of the indicated ciphersuites is not able to authenticate.  The local
   security policy of the peer MUST specify the set of ciphersuites that
   the peer accepts.  The server MUST verify that the ciphersuite that
   is indicated as being chosen by the peer in message 4, belongs to the
   set of ciphersuites that were offered in message 3.  If this
   verification fails, the server MUST silently discard the packet.

10.2.  Mutual Authentication

   EAP-IKEv2 supports mutual authentication.

10.3.  Integrity Protection

   EAP-IKEv2 provides integrity protection of EAP-IKEv2 traffic.  This
   protection is offered after authentication is completed and it is
   facilitated by inclusion of two Integrity Checksum Data fields: one
   at the end of the EAP packet (see Figure 4), and one as part of an
   Encrypted payload (see Section 8.9).

10.4.  Replay Protection

   EAP-IKEv2 provides protection against replay attacks by a variety of
   means.  This includes the requirement that the Authentication payload
   is computed as a function of, among other things, a server-provided
   nonce and a peer-provided nonce.  These nonces are required to be
   practically unpredictable by an adversary.  Assuming that the
   algorithm that is used to compute the Authentication payload does not
   contain cryptographic weaknesses, the probability that an
   Authentication payload that is valid in a particular protocol run
   will also be valid in a subsequent run is therefore negligible.

10.5.  Confidentiality

   EAP-IKEv2 provides confidentiality of certain EAP-IKEv2 fields,
   namely those included in Encrypted payloads.  With respect to
   identity confidentiality, the following claims are made.  Note that
   identity confidentiality refers to the EAP-IKEv2 identity of the EAP
   peer.




Tschofenig, et al.            Experimental                     [Page 23]

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


   Identity confidentiality is provided in the face of a passive
   adversary, i.e., an adversary that does not modify traffic as it is
   in transit.  Whenever the optional SK{IDr} payload in message 4 of a
   full EAP-IKEv2 protocol (see Figure 1) is not included, identity
   confidentiality is also provided in the face of an active adversary.
   This payload MUST NOT be included in use cases 1, 2, and 3.  In use
   case 4, this payload MUST be included.  Therefore, in use case 4,
   EAP- IKEv2 does not provide identity confidentiality in the face of
   an active adversary.

   Note, however, that the EAP peer provides its identity in message 2
   in Figure 1 in cleartext.  In order to provide identity
   confidentiality as discussed in the previous paragraphs, it is
   necessary to obfuscate the username part of the identity (the realm
   part must stay intact to allow correct message routing by the
   Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) infrastructure).
   The EAP server then uses the identity information in message 4.  The
   same mechanism is also used by other EAP methods to provide identity
   confidentiality, for example, EAP-TTLS [8].

10.6.  Key Strength

   EAP-IKEv2 supports the establishment of session keys (MSK and EMSK)
   of a variety of key strengths, with the theoretical maximum at 512
   bits per key (since this is the size of the MSK and the EMSK).
   However, in practice, the effective key strength is likely to be
   significantly lower, and depends on the authentication credentials
   used, the negotiated ciphersuite (including the output size of the
   pseudorandom function), the Diffie-Hellman group used, and on the
   extent to which the assumptions on which the underlying cryptographic
   algorithms depend really hold.  Of the above mechanisms, the one that
   offers the lowest key strength can be regarded as a measure of the
   effective key strength of the resulting session keys.  Note that this
   holds for other EAP methods, too.

   Due to the large variety of possible combinations, no indication of a
   practical effective key strength for MSK or EMSK is given here.
   However, those responsible for the deployment of EAP-IKEv2 in a
   particular environment should consider the threats this environment
   may be exposed to, and configure the EAP-IKEv2 server and peer
   policies and authentication credentials such that the established
   session keys are of a sufficiently high effective key strength.

10.7.  Dictionary Attack Resistance

   EAP-IKEv2 can be used in a variety of use cases, as explained in
   Section 1.  In some of these uses cases, namely use case 1, 2, and 4,
   dictionary attacks cannot be launched since no passwords are used.



Tschofenig, et al.            Experimental                     [Page 24]

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


   In use case 3, EAP-IKEv2 provides protection against offline
   dictionary attacks, since operations that involve the password are
   executed only after the server has authenticated itself (based on a
   credential other than a password).

   In order to reduce exposure against online dictionary attacks, in use
   case 3, the server SHOULD provide the capability to log failed peer
   authentication events, and SHOULD implement a suitable policy in case
   of consecutive failed peer authentication attempts within a short
   period of time (such as responding with an EAP-Failure instead of
   message 5 for a predetermined amount of time).

   When passwords are used with method 4 (instead of using a key with
   high entropy), dictionary attacks are possible, as described in
   Section 8 of [1]:

      "When using pre-shared keys, a critical consideration is how to
      assure the randomness of these secrets.  The strongest practice is
      to ensure that any pre-shared key contain as much randomness as
      the strongest key being negotiated.  Deriving a shared secret from
      a password, name, or other low-entropy source is not secure.
      These sources are subject to dictionary and social engineering
      attacks, among others."

   Hence, the usage of passwords with mode 4 where the EAP peer and the
   EAP server rely on a shared secret that was derived from a password
   is insecure.  It is strongly recommended to use mode 3 when passwords
   are used by the EAP peer.

10.8.  Fast Reconnect

   EAP-IKEv2 supports a "fast reconnect" mode of operation, as described
   in Section 4.

10.9.  Cryptographic Binding

   EAP-IKEv2 is not a tunnel EAP method.  Thus, cryptographic binding
   does not apply to EAP-IKEv2.

10.10.  Session Independence

   EAP-IKEv2 provides session independence in a number of ways, as
   follows:

   Firstly, knowledge of captured EAP-IKEv2 conversations (i.e., the
   information that a passive adversary may obtain) does not enable the
   adversary to compute the Master Session Key (MSK) and Extended Master
   Session Key (EMSK) that resulted from these conversations.  This



Tschofenig, et al.            Experimental                     [Page 25]

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


   holds even in the case where the adversary later obtains access to
   the server and/or the peer's long-term authentication credentials
   that were used in these conversations.  That is, EAP-IKEv2 provides
   support for "perfect forward secrecy".  However, whether or not this
   support is made use of in a particular EAP-IKEv2 protocol run,
   depends on when the peer and the server delete the Diffie-Hellman
   values that they used in that run, and on whether or not they use
   fresh Diffie-Hellman values in each protocol run.  The discussion in
   Section 2.12 of [1] applies.

   Secondly, an active adversary that does not know the peer's and
   server's long-term authentication credentials cannot learn the MSK
   and EMSK that were established in a particular protocol run of EAP-
   IKEv2, even if it obtains access to the MSK and EMSK that were
   established in other protocol runs of EAP-IKEv2.  This is because the
   MSK and the EMSK are a function of, among other things, data items
   that are assumed to be generated independently at random in each
   protocol run.

10.11.  Fragmentation

   EAP-IKEv2 provides support for fragmentation, as described in Section
   8.1.

10.12.  Channel Binding

   Channel binding is not supported in EAP-IKEv2.

10.13.  Summary

   EAP security claims are defined in Section 7.2.1 of [2].  The
   security claims for EAP-IKEv2 are as follows:

               Ciphersuite negotiation:   Yes
               Mutual authentication:     Yes
               Integrity protection:      Yes
               Replay protection:         Yes
               Confidentiality:           Yes
               Key derivation:            Yes; see Section 5
               Key strength:              Variable
               Dictionary attack prot.:   Yes; see Section 10.7
               Fast reconnect:            Yes; see Section 4
               Crypt. binding:            N/A
               Session independence:      Yes; see Section 10.10
               Fragmentation:             Yes; see Section 10.11
               Channel binding:           No

11.  IANA Considerations

   IANA has allocated value 49 for the EAP method type indicating EAP-
   IKEv2.  EAP-IKEv2 has already earlier successfully passed Designated
   Expert Review as mandated by RFC 3748 for IANA allocations.

   In addition, IANA has created a new registry for "EAP-IKEv2
   Payloads", and populated it with the following initial entries listed
   below.

   The following payload type values are used by this document.

  Next Payload Type                 | Value
  ----------------------------------+----------------------------------
  No Next payload                   | 0
  Security Association payload      | 33
  Key Exchange payload              | 34
  Identification payload            |
      (when sent by initiator, IDi) | 35
  Identification payload            |
      (when sent by responder, IDr) | 36
  Certificate payload               | 37
  Certificate Request payload       | 38
  Authentication payload            | 39
  Nonce payload                     | 40
  Notification payload              | 41
  Vendor ID payload                 | 43
  Encrypted payload                 | 46
  Next Fast-ID payload              | 121
  RESERVED TO IANA                  | 1-32, 42, 44-45, 47-120, 122-127
  PRIVATE USE                       | 128-255

   Payload type values 1-120 match the corresponding payloads in the
   IKEv2 IANA registry.  That is, the EAP-IKEv2 payloads that have been
   assigned a type value in the range 1-120 have a semantically
   equivalent payload type in IKEv2, with an identical payload type
   value.  However, there exist payloads types in IKEv2 that do not have
   a semantically equivalent payload in EAP-IKEv2; this explains the
   fact that the payload type values 42, 44, and 45 have not been
   assigned in EAP-IKEv2; these values remain RESERVED TO IANA for this
   version of EAP-IKEv2.

   Payload type values 121-127 are used for EAP-IKEv2 specific payloads,
   i.e., for payloads that do not have a semantically equivalent payload
   in IKEv2.  Note that this range has been reserved for this purpose in
   the IKEv2 IANA registry too.  This means that the same payload type
   values will not be used for different things in IKEv2 and EAP-IKEv2
   protocols.



Tschofenig, et al.            Experimental                     [Page 27]

RFC 5106                    EAP-IKEv2 Method               February 2008


   Payload type values 122-127 are reserved to IANA for future
   assignment to EAP-IKEv2-specific payloads.  Payload type values
   128-255 are for private use among mutually consenting parties.

   The semantics of the above-listed payloads is provided in this
   document (0-127) and refer to IKEv2 when necessary (1-120).

   New payload type values with a description of their semantic will be
   assigned after Expert Review.  The expert is chosen by the IESG in
   consultation with the Security Area Directors and the EMU working
   group chairs (or the working group chairs of a designated successor
   working group).  Updates can be provided based on expert approval
   only.  A designated expert will be appointed by the Security Area
   Directors.  Based on expert approval it is possible to delete entries
   from the registry or to mark entries as "deprecated".

   Each registration must include the payload type value and the
   semantic of the payload.

Appendix A.  EAP-IKEv2 Protocol Runs with Failed Authentication

   This appendix illustrates how authentication failures are handled
   within EAP-IKEv2.  Note that authentication failures only occur in
   full EAP-IKEv2 protocol runs.

   Figure 10 shows the message flow in case the EAP peer fails to
   authenticate the EAP server.

   1. R<-I: EAP-Request/Identity

   2. R->I: EAP-Response/Identity(Id)

   3. R<-I: EAP-Req (HDR, SAi1, KEi, Ni)

   4. R->I: EAP-Res (HDR, SAr1, KEr, Nr, [CERTREQ], [SK{IDr}])

   5. R<-I: EAP-Req (HDR, SK {IDi, [CERT], [CERTREQ], [IDr], AUTH})

   6. R->I: EAP-Res(HDR, SK {N(AUTHENTICATION_FAILED)})

   7. R<-I: EAP-Failure

          Figure 10: EAP-IKEv2 with Failed Server Authentication

   The difference in the full successful exchange described in Section 3
   is that, in message 6, the EAP peer MUST answer the EAP server with
   an Encrypted payload that contains a Notify payload with the Notify
   Message Type value set to 24 (AUTHENTICATION_FAILED).  In that
   message, the Message ID field in the EAP-IKEv2 header (HDR) MUST
   carry Message ID value 2.  In message 7, an EAP-Failure message MUST
   be returned by the EAP server.

           Figure 11: EAP-IKEv2 with Failed Peer Authentication

   Compared to the full successful exchange, one additional roundtrip is
   required.  In message 7, the EAP server MUST send an EAP request with
   Encrypted payload that contains a Notify payload with the Notify
   Message Type value set to 24 (AUTHENTICATION_FAILED), instead of
   sending an EAP-Success message.  The EAP peer, upon receiving message
   7, MUST send an empty EAP-IKEv2 (informational) message in reply to
   the EAP server's error indication, as shown in message 8.  In
   messages 7 and 8, the Message ID field in the EAP-IKEv2 header (HDR)
   MUST carry Message ID value 2.  Finally, by means of message 9, the
   EAP server answers with an EAP-Failure.
