In commercial deployments Mobile IPv6 can be a service offered by a
Mobility Services Provider (MSP). In this case all protocol operations may
need to be explicitely authorized and traced. A convenient approach to do
that is to define an interface between the Home Agent (HA) and the AAA
infrastructure of the MSP, which stores user's credentials and service
profiles. The availability of this interface can be useful also to enable
dynamic Mobile IPv6 bootstrapping on both the mobile node and the
designated HA. This document describes various scenarios where an interface
between the HA and the AAA infrastructure of the MSP is required.
Furthermore, a list of design goals for this interface is provided.
