A Proactive Authentication Integration for the Network Mobility

The security is a critical point to the network mobility deployment. The authentication and authorization aspects are part of the security considerations that the operators need to take into account. In a multi-operators environment, we give here an overview of some operators' recommendations and constraints relative to the AAA architecture for the NEMO networks. Then, we propose and evaluate an AAA architecture based on the PANA, diameter and EAP protocols in a multi- operators scenario. Finally, we propose a proactive authentication approach to increase the overall performances of an IP handover.
