	Title		: Distributing a Symmetric FMIPv6 Handover Key using SEND

Fast Mobile IPv6 requires that a Fast Binding Update is secured 
     using a security association shared between an Access Router and a 
     Mobile Node in order to avoid certain attacks. In this document, a 
     method for provisioning a shared key from the Access Router to the 
     Mobile Node is defined to protect this signaling. The Mobile Node 
     generates a public/private key pair using the same public key 
     algorithm as for SEND (RFC 3971). The Mobile Node sends the public 
     key to the Access Router. The Access Router encrypts a shared 
     handover key using the public key and sends it back to the Mobile 
     Node. The Mobile Node decrypts the shared handover key using the 
     matching private key, and the handover key is then available for 
     generating an authenticator on a Fast Binding Update. The Mobile 
     Node  and  Access  Router  preferably  use  the  Proxy  Router 
     Solicitation and Proxy Router Advertisement from Fast Mobile IPv6 
     for the key exchange. The key exchange messages are required to 
     have SEND security; that is, the source address is a CGA and the 
     messages are signed using the CGA private key of the sending node.  
     This allows the Access Router, prior to providing the shared 
     handover key, to verify the authorization of the Mobile Node to 
     claim the address so that the previous care-of CGA in the Fast 
     Binding Update can act as the name of the key.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
