PANA-Start-Request message. based on the the client identifier (e.g., an NAI) carried in the EAP
authentication method. Note that AAA typically uses the client's NAI
to route the request to an appropriate home server. PANA's ISP
selection mechanism does not preclude the use of roaming. That is,
the realm provided in the NAI may not match the chosen ISP; all that
is required is that the chosen ISP is capable of routing the request
to the realm in the NAI. As a result, PANA's ISP selection feature
does not affect the NAI but rather the next hop AAA entity from the
PAA. Note that this may limit the ability of the access network to
use a local AAA proxy for all outgoing traffic, assuming ISP
selection is needed. This is because the PAA can only affect the
next hop selection at the PAA, and it may not have means to present a
"source route" to the next hop proxy for doing it in the next step.
In the roaming case, the PAA MAY carry ISP-Information AVPs only for
ISPs that are directly connected to the access network it resides,
not for all possible home ISPs.
In addition to performing network selection by using PANA for
choosing an ISP, another level of network selection may be performed
by using EAP for choosing AAA intermediaries
[I-D.adrangi-eap-network-discovery]. The latter network selection
occurs over EAP in the authentication and authorization phase after
completion of the former network selection in the discovery and
handshake phase, possibly in the scope of the chosen ISP.

6. Mobility 6. PANA Headers and Formats
A mobile PaC's network access authentication performance can be
enhanced by deploying a context-transfer-based mechanism, where some
session attributes are transferred from the previous PAA to the new
one in order to avoid performing a full EAP authentication (reactive
approach). Additional mechanisms that are based on the proactive AAA
state establishment at one or more candidate PAAs may be developed in
the future [I-D.irtf-aaaarch-handoff]. The details of a
context-transfer-based mechanism is provided in this section.
Upon changing its point of attachment, a PaC that wants to quickly
resume its ongoing PANA session without running EAP MAY send its
unexpired PANA session identifier in its PANA-Start-Answer message.
Along with the Session-Id AVP, a MAC AVP MUST be included in this
message. The MAC AVP is computed by using the PANA_MAC_KEY shared
between the PaC and its previous PAA that has an unexpired PANA
session with the PaC. This action signals PaC's desire to perform
the mobility optimization. In the absence of a Session-Id AVP in
this message, the PANA session takes its usual course (i.e.,
EAP-based authentication is performed).
If a PAA receives a session identifier in the PANA-Start-Answer
message, and it is configured to enable this optimization, it SHOULD
retrieve the PANA session attributes from the previous PAA. Current
PAA determines the identity of the previous PAA by looking at the
DiameterIdentity part of the PANA session identifier. The MAC AVP
can only be verified by the previous PAA, therefore a copy of the
PANA message MUST be provided to the previous PAA. The mechanism
required to send a copy of the PANA-Start-Answer message from current
PAA to the previous PAA, and retrieve the session attributes is
outside the scope of PANA protocol. The Context Transfer Protocol
[I-D.ietf-seamoby-ctp] might be useful for this purpose.
When the previous or current PAA is not configured to enable this
optimization, the current PAA can not retrieve the PANA session
attributes, or the PANA session has already expired (i.e., session
lifetime is zero), the PAA MUST send the PANA-Auth-Request message
with a new session identifier and let the PANA exchange take its
usual course. This action will engage EAP-based authentication and
create a fresh PANA session from scratch.
In case the current PAA can retrieve the on-going PANA session
attributes from the previous PAA, the PANA session continues with a
PANA-Bind exchange.
As part of the context transfer, an intermediate AAA-Key material is
provided by the previous PAA to the current PAA.
AAA-Key-int = The first N bits of
HMAC-SHA1(AAA-Key, DiameterIdentity | Session-ID)
The value of N depends on the integrity protection algorithm in use,
i.e., N=160 for HMAC-SHA1. DiameterIdentity is the identifier of the
current PAA. Session-ID is the identifier of the PaC's PANA session
with the previous PAA.
The current PAA and PaC compute the new AAA-Key by using the nonce
values and the AAA-Key-int.
AAA-Key-new = The first N bits of
HMAC-SHA1(AAA-Key-int, PaC_nonce | PAA_nonce)
New PANA_MAC_KEY is computed based on the algorithm described in
Section 5.3, by using the new AAA-Key and the new Session-ID assigned
by the current PAA. The MAC AVP contained in the PANA-Bind-Request
and PANA-Bind-Answer messages MUST be generated and verified by using
the new PANA_MAC_KEY. The Session-ID AVP MUST include a new session
identifier assigned by the current PAA. A new PANA session is
created upon successful completion of this exchange.
Note that correct operation of this optimization relies on many
factors, including applicability of authorization state from one
network attachment to another. [I-D.ietf-eap-keying] identifies this
operation as "fast handoff" and provides deployment considerations.
Operators are recommended to take those guidelines into account when
using this optimization in their networks.

Furthermore, impact of replay attacks is reduced as any stale message
(i.e., a request or answer with an unexpected sequence number) and
any duplicate answer are immediately discarded, and a duplicate
request can trigger transmission of the cached answer (i.e., no need
to process the request and generate a new answer).
The PANA framework defines EP which is ideally located on a network The PANA framework defines EP which is ideally located on a network
device that can filter traffic from the PaCs before the traffic device that can filter traffic from the PaCs before the traffic

Upon PaC's movement to a another PAA (new PAA) and request to perform

This AAA-Key-int is delivered to the new PAA, and used in the
computation of AAA-Key-new, which further takes a pair of nonce

11.9 Mobility Optimization 10.9 Updating PaC's IP Address
The mobility optimization described in Section 6 involves the
previous PAA (holding AAA-Key) providing a AAA-Key-new to the current
PAA of the PaC. There are security risks stemming from potential
compromise of PAAs. Compromise of the current PAA does not yield
compromise of the previous PAA, as AAA-Key cannot be computed from a
compromised AAA-Key-new. But a compromised previous PAA along with
the intercepted nonce values on the current link leads to the
compromise of AAA-Key-new. Operators should be aware of the
potential risk of using this optimization.
An operator can reduce the risk exposure by forcing the PaC to
perform an EAP-based authentication immediately after the PaC gains
access to new link via the optimized PANA execution. EAP-based
authentication can be run in parallel with IP data packet
transmission.
11.10 Updating PaC's IP Address
