Technical Summary

The Internet Key Exchange protocol version 2 (IKEv2) is a component
of the IPsec architecture and is used to perform mutual
authentication as well as to establish and to maintain IPsec security
associations (SAs) between the respective parties. IKEv2 supports
several different authentication mechanisms, such as the Extensible
Authentication Protocol (EAP), certificates, and pre-shared keys.

Diameter interworking for Mobile IPv6 between the Home Agent, as a
Diameter client, and the Diameter server has been specified.
However, that specification focused on the usage of EAP and did not
include support for pre-shared key based authentication available
with IKEv2. This document specifies IKEv2 server, as a Diameter
client, to the Diameter server communication for IKEv2 with pre-
shared key based authentication.

Working Group Summary

There is Dime WG consensus behind the document. The document was discussed for more than one year in the
WG and the document captures the results of the collaborative WG work.

Document Quality

The document is complete, straightforward, simple and well-written.

Personnel

Lionel Morand is the Document Shepherd for this document. Dan Romascanu is the Responsible Area Director.
