Internet-Draft PMIPv6 Extensions for PIM-SM October 2011
1. Introduction
Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) [2] enables network-based mobility for
IPv6 mobile nodes (MNs) that do not implement any mobility protocols.
The Local Mobility Anchor (LMA) is the topological anchor point to
manages the mobile node's binding state. The Mobile Access Gateway
(MAG) is an access router or gateway that manages the mobility-
related signaling for an MN. An MN is attached to the Proxy Mobile
IPv6 Domain (PMIPv6-Domain) that includes LMA and MAG(s), and is able
to receive data coming from outside of the PMIPv6-Domain through LMA
and MAG.
Network-based mobility support for unicast is addressed in [2], while
multicast support in PMIPv6 is not discussed in it. Since LMA and
MAG set up a bi-directional IPv6-in-IPv6 tunnel for each mobile node
and forwards all mobile node's traffic according to [2], it highly
wastes network resources when a large number of mobile nodes join/
subscribe the same multicast sessions/channels, because independent
data copies of the same multicast packet are delivered to the
subscriber nodes in a unicast manner through MAG.
The base solution described in [9] provides options for deploying
multicast listener functions in PMIPv6-Domains without modifying
mobility and multicast protocol standards. However, in this
specification, MAG MUST act as an MLD proxy [7] and hence MUST
dedicate a tunnel link between LMA and MAG to an upstream interface
for all multicast traffic. This limitation does not allow to use
PIM-SM native routing on MAG, and hence does not solve the tunnel
convergence problem; MAG receives the same data from multiple LMAs
when MAG attaches to them for mobile nodes and has subscribed the
same multicast channel to them. It does not enable direct routing
and does not support source mobility. Furthermore, although it would
be able to minimize the join latency for mobile nodes attached to a
new network by tuning the Startup Query Interval value for the new
MAG as proposed in [15], the base solution does not provide any
seamless handover mechanism with a context transfer function.
This document describes PMIPv6 extensions to support IP multicast
communication for mobile nodes in PMIPv6-Domain. The proposed
protocol extension assumes that both LMA and MAG enable the Protocol-
Independent Multicast - Sparse Mode (PIM-SM) multicast routing
protocol [3]. The proposed extension supports seamless handover. It
can cooperate with local routing and direct routing to deliver IP
multicast packets for mobile nodes and source mobility. In this
document, because multicast listener mobility is mainly focused on,
the detail specification of source mobility is not described.
The PMIPv6 extension proposed in this document does not require to

change unicast communication methods or protocols defined in [2], and
therefore both unicast and multicast communications for mobile nodes
in PMIPv6-Domain are enabled if this extension is implemented.

3. Overview
3.1. Multicast Communication in PMIPv6
Required components to enable IP multicast are multicast routing
protocols and host-and-router communication protocols. This document
assumes PIM-SM [3] as the multicast routing protocol and Multicast
Listener Discovery (MLD) as the host-and-router communication
protocol. This document allows mobile nodes to participate in Any-
Source Multicast (ASM) and Source-Specific Multicast (SSM) [8].
However, in order to explicitly participate in SSM, mobile nodes MUST
support either MLDv2 [4] or Lightweight-MLDv2 (LW-MLDv2) [5].
The architecture of a Proxy Mobile IPv6 domain is shown in Figure 1.
LMA and MAG are the core functional entities in PMIPv6-Domain. The
entire PMIPv6-Domain appears as a single link from the perspective of
each mobile node.

Figure 1: Proxy Mobile IPv6 Domain
When a mobile node wants to subscribe/unsubscribe a multicast
channel, it sends MLD Report messages specifying sender and multicast
addresses to the access link. The attached MAG detects this
membership information and sends the PIM Join/Prune message to the
corresponding LMA over the LMA-MAG bi-directional IPv6-in-IPv6 tunnel
when the LMA is selected as the previous-hop router for the multicast
channel, or sends the PIM Join/Prune message to the adjacent upstream
multicast router for the multicast channel. When the LMA or the
adjacent router receives the PIM Join/Prune message, it coordinates
the corresponding multicast routing tree if necessary and starts
forwarding the data.
When the MAG detects mobile node's handover, it can proceed the
seamless handover procedures. Since both PMIPv6 and multicast
Asaeda, et al. Expires May 3, 2012 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft PMIPv6 Extensions for PIM-SM October 2011
protocols (i.e., MLD and PIM-SM) do not have functions for multicast
context transfer in their original protocol specifications, the
external functions or protocols should be used for handover. One of
the possibile ways is the use of "mobile node's Policy Profile", as
it could include "multicast channel information", which expresses
mobile node's subscribing multicast channel list, as well as the
mandatory fields of the Policy Profile specified in [2]. Mobile
node's Policy Profile is provided by "policy store" whose definition
is the same as of [2].
3.2. Protocol Sequence for Multicast Channel Subscription
A mobile node sends unsolicited MLD Report messages including source
and multicast addresses when it subscribes a multicast channel.
Although MLDv2 specification [4] permits to use the unspecified
address (::) for a host whose interface has not acquired a valid
link-local address yet, MAG SHOULD send MLDv2 Report messages with a
valid IPv6 link-local source address as defined in [15]. As well,
MLDv2 Report messages MAY be sent with an IP destination address of
FF02:0:0:0:0:0:0:16, to which all MLDv2-capable multicast routers
listen, but the IP unicast address of the attached MAG SHALL be used
for the destination of MLDv2 Report messages.
When the MAG operating as a PIM-SM router receives MLD Report
messages from attached mobile nodes, it joins the multicast delivery
tree by sending PIM Join messages to its neighboring routers
(Figure 2). When the upstream router for the requested channel is
LMA, the MAG sends the corresponding PIM Join messages over the
regular LMA-MAG bi-directional tunnel, if the MAG has no multicast
state for the requested channel. When the upstream router for the
requested channel is an adjacent router that is not the LMA, the MAG
sends the corresponding PIM Join messages to the adjacent upstream
router natively, if the MAG has no multicast state for the requested
channel. The LMA or the adjacent upstream router then joins the
multicast delivery tree and forwards the packets to the downstream
MAG.

Figure 2: MLD Report Messages Transmission
The MAG selects only one upstream link for a multicast channel by the
Reverse Path Forwarding (RPF) algorithm even if the MAG has
established multiple bi-directional tunnels for unicast transmission
to different LMAs. This does not cause the tunnel convergence
problem, because Multicast Routing Information Base (MRIB) used by
PIM-SM selects only one incoming interface for each multicast channel
and hence duplicate packets are not forwarded to the MAG.

Internet-Draft PMIPv6 Extensions for PIM-SM October 2011
4. Multicast Messages over Bi-directional Tunnel
MLD messages, PIM messages, and IP multicast data are transmitted
over the LMA-MAG bi-directional IPv6-in-IPv6 tunnel when the LMA is
selected as the previous-hop router for the multicast channel as
shown in Figure 3.

The format of the tunneled multicast packet forwarded from LMA is
shown below. "S" and "G" are the same notation used for (S,G)
multicast channel.

IPv6 header (src= S, dst= G) /* Inner Header */

Figure 4: Tunneled IPv6 multicast packet from LMA to MAG
When an MLD or PIM message is sent from MAG to LMA, the src and dst
addresses of tunnel header will be replaced to Proxy-CoA and LMAA,
respectively. To convey an MLD or PIM message, the src address of
the packet header is changed to either LMA's or MAG's link-local
address. The dst address of the packet header is assigned based on
the MLD's condition (see Section 5.1.15 and 5.2.14 of [4]) or the
PIM's condition (see [3]).
Asaeda, et al. Expires May 3, 2012 [Page 11]
Internet-Draft PMIPv6 Extensions for PIM-SM October 2011
5. Local Mobility Anchor Operation
The LMA is responsible for maintaining the mobile node's reachability
state and is the topological anchor point for the mobile node's home
network prefix(es). This document assumes that the LMA is capable of
forwarding multicast packets to the MAG by enabling the Protocol-
Independent Multicast - Sparse Mode (PIM-SM) multicast routing
protocol [3]. The LMA acting as a PIM-SM multicast router may serve
MAGs as downstream routers for some multicast channels when a mobile
node is a multicast data receiver (or as upstream routers when a
mobile node is a multicast data sender). The downstream (or
upstream) MAG is connected to the LMA through the LMA-MAG bi-
directional tunnel for multicast communication.
When the LMA sets up the multicast state and joins the group as the
MAG's upstream router, the multicast packets are tunneled to the MAG
that requested to receive the corresponding multicast session. The
MAG then forwards the packets to the mobile node according to the
multicast listener state maintained in the MAG. [2] supports only
point-to-point access link types for MAG and mobile node connection;
hence a mobile node and the MAG are the only two nodes on an access
link, where the link is assumed to be multicast capable.
Asaeda, et al. Expires May 3, 2012 [Page 12]
Internet-Draft PMIPv6 Extensions for PIM-SM October 2011
6. Mobile Access Gateway Operation
The MAG is the entity that performs the mobility management on behalf
of a mobile node. This document assumes that MAG is capable of
forwarding multicast packets to the corresponding mobile nodes
attached to MAG by enabling the PIM-SM multicast routing protocol.
In addition, MAG must maintain multicast membership status for the
attached mobile nodes at the edge and forwards the multicast data to
the member mobile nodes. This condition requires MAG to support
MLDv2 [4] or LW-MLDv2 [5], as well.
When mobile nodes subscribe multicast channel(s), they send MLD
Report messages with their link-local address to the MAG, and the MAG
sends the corresponding PIM Join messages to the upstream router if
the MAG has no multicast state for the requested channel(s). The
upstream router is selected by the Reverse Path Forwarding (RPF)
lookup algorithm, and that is either LMA or an adjacent multicast
router attached to the same link. If the LMA is the upstream router
for the channel(s) for the MAG, the MAG encapsulates PIM Join
messages using the LMA-MAG bi-directional tunnel.
The MAG also sends MLD Query messages to attached mobile nodes to
maintain up-to-date membership states. Since the MAG may deal with a
large number of the downstream mobile nodes, the MLD protocol
scalability should be taken into account as described in [15].
Therefore it is RECOMMENDED that the explicit tracking function [16]
is enabled on MAG.
Asaeda, et al. Expires May 3, 2012 [Page 13]
Internet-Draft PMIPv6 Extensions for PIM-SM October 2011
7. Mobile Node Operation
Mobile nodes attached to MAG can behave as regular receiver hosts. A
mobile node sends MLD messages to MAG when it wants to subscribe and
unsubscribe IP multicast channels.
In order to subscribe/unsubscribe multicast channel(s) by unsolicited
report messages and inform current membersip state by solicited
report messages, mobile nodes MUST support either MLDv1 [4], MLDv2
[4], or LW-MLDv2 [5], and SHOULD support MLDv2 or LW-MLDv2.
Asaeda, et al. Expires May 3, 2012 [Page 14]
Internet-Draft PMIPv6 Extensions for PIM-SM October 2011
8. Smooth Handover
MAG is responsible for detecting the mobile node's movements to and
from the access link and for initiating binding registrations to the
mobile node's LMA. MAG tracks the mobile node's movements to and
from the access link and for signaling the mobile node's LMA. In
PMIPv6, it SHOULD NOT require for mobile nodes to initiate to re-
subscribe multicast channels, and MAG SHOULD keep multicast channel
subscription status for mobile nodes even if they move to a different
MAG (i.e., n-MAG) in PMIPv6-Domain.
MAG needs to join the multicast delivery tree when an attached mobile
node subscribes a multicast channel. When the mobile node changes
the network, it should seamlessly receive multicast data from the new
MAG according to the multicast channel information stored in the
"MN's Policy Profile" or by the "multicast context transfer
mechanism". Whether the MN's Policy Profile or the multicast context
transfer mechanism mobile operators use depend on their policy or
implementation.
8.1. Handover with Policy Profile
When the multicast channel information subscribed by mobile nodes is
maintained in "MN's Policy Profile" stored in a policy store [2], MAG
can use the channel information to provide seamless handover. The
procedures are described as follows and illustrated in Figure 5;
1. Figure 5 shows the examples that a mobile node has received
multicast data from an upstream multicast router via p-MAG (*1)
and from LMA via p-MAG (*2).
2. Whenever the mobile node moves a new network and attaches to
n-MAG, the n-MAG obtains the MN-Identifier (MN-ID) and learns
multicast channel information described in Mobile Node's Policy
Profile associated to this MN-Identifier. Describing the method
how the n-MAG identifies the p-MAG is out of scope of this
document, while using the same mechanism described in [14] would
be one of the possible methods.
3. If there are multicast channels the mobile node has subscribed
but the n-MAG has not yet subscribed, n-MAG joins the
corresponding multicast channels by sending the PIM Join message
to its upstream router. If the upstream router is LMA, the PIM
messages are encapsulated and transmitted over the LMA-MAG bi-
directional tunnel (*4); otherwise the PIM messages are sent
natively to the adjacent upstream router (*3).
Asaeda, et al. Expires May 3, 2012 [Page 15]
Internet-Draft PMIPv6 Extensions for PIM-SM October 2011
4. The multicast data is forwarded from LMA through the bi-
directional tunnel between the LMA and n-MAG (*4) or from the
adjacent upstream router (*3).

Figure 5: Handover with MN's Policy Profile
After MN attaches to n-MAG, the multicast data will be delivered to
the MN immediately. MN's multicast membership state is maintained
with MLD Query and Report messages exchanged by MN and n-MAG. If
p-MAG thinks that the moving mobile node is the last member of
multicast channel(s) (according to the membership record maintained
Asaeda, et al. Expires May 3, 2012 [Page 16]
Internet-Draft PMIPv6 Extensions for PIM-SM October 2011
by the explicit tracking function [16]), p-MAG confirms it by sending
MLD query. After the confirmation, p-MAG leaves the channel(s) by
sending the PIM Prune message to its upstream router.
8.2. Handover with Extended Proxy Binding Update and Acknowledgement
This document provides the multicast extension for the PBU message,
which is named "Proxy Binding Update with multicast extension
(PBU-M)" (detailed in Section 9.1), and the PBA message, which is
named "Proxy Binding Acknowledge with multicast extension (PBA-M)"
(detailed in Section 9.2), to inform n-MAG to subscribe multicast
channel(s) for moving mobile nodes.
1. Figure 6 shows the examples that a mobile node has received
multicast data from an upstream multicast router via p-MAG (*1)
and from LMA via p-MAG (*2).
2. Whenever the mobile node moves a new network, the p-MAG sends
de-registration PBU-M message having the lifetime value of zero
(see Section 9.1) to the LMA. The LMA then transmits the PBA
message and keeps the multicast channel information included in
that message.
3. When the mobile node attaches to n-MAG, the n-MAG obtains the
MN-Identifier (MN-ID) and transmits the regular PBU message.
4. Whenever the LMA receives the PBU message, it transmits the
PBA-M message including multicast channel information that the
mobile node has joined.
5. If there are multicast channels in the channel information the
mobile node has subscribed but the n-MAG has not yet subscribed,
the n-MAG joins the corresponding multicast channels by sending
the PIM Join message to its upstream router.
6. Follow the procedures of step 3 and 4 in Section 8.1.

A Binding Update message that is sent by MAG to LMA is referred to as
the "Proxy Binding Update" message. A new flag (C) is included in
the Proxy Binding Update message with Multicast extension (PBU-M).
The rest of the Binding Update message format remains the same as
defined in [10] and with the additional (R), (M), and (P) flags, as
specified in [11], [12], and [2], respectively.
Multicast Channel Subscription Flag
A new flag (C) is included in the Binding Update message to
indicate to LMA that the Binding Update message is a multicast
channel subscription.
The PBU-M message is transfered for binding de-registration from
p-MAG to LMA as apecified in Section 8.2, the Lifetime value MUST be
zero.
When (C) flag is specified in PBU-M message, the Mobility options
field includes "multicast channel information", which is the same

Figure 10: PBA with Multicast Extension
A "Proxy Binding Acknowledgement" message is sent from LMA to MAG in
response to a Proxy Binding Update message. A new flag (C) is
included in the Proxy Binding Acknowledgement message with Multicast
extension (PBA-M). The rest of the Binding Acknowledgement message
format remains the same as defined in [10] and with the additional
(R) flag, as specified in [11] and [2], respectively.
Multicast Channel Subscription Flag
A new flag (C) is included in the Binding Acknowledgement message
to indicate to MAG that the Binding Acknowledgement message is a
multicast channel subscription.
When (C) flag is specified in PBA-M message, the mobility options
field includes "multicast channel information", which is the same
information of MLDv2 Report message [4] as described in Section 9.1.

10. IANA Considerations
This document creates a new registry for the flags in the Binding
Update message called the "Binding Update Flags".
The following flags are reserved:
(A) 0x8000 [RFC3775]
(H) 0x4000 [RFC3775]
(L) 0x2000 [RFC3775]
(K) 0x1000 [RFC3775]
(M) 0x0800 [RFC4140]
(R) 0x0400 [RFC3963]
(P) 0x0200 [RFC5213]
This document reserves a new flag (C) for "Proxy Binding Update with
Multicast Extension" as described in Section 9.1 as follows:
(C) 0x0100
The rest of the values in the 16-bit field are reserved. New values
can be assigned by Standards Action or IESG approval.
This document also creates a new registry for the flags in the
Binding Acknowledgment message called the "Binding Acknowledgment
Flags".
The following flags are reserved:
(K) 0x80 [RFC3775]
(R) 0x40 [RFC3963]
(P) 0x20 [RFC5213]
This document reserves a new flag (C) for "Proxy Binding
Acknowledgement with Multicast Extension" as described in Section 9.2
as follows:
(C) 0x010
The rest of the values in the 8-bit field are reserved. New values
Asaeda, et al. Expires May 3, 2012 [Page 23]
Internet-Draft PMIPv6 Extensions for PIM-SM October 2011
can be assigned by Standards Action or IESG approval.
The IANA should also allocate the value of the type field of
"multicast channel information" described in Section 9.1 for the
Mobility options field upon publication of the first RFC.
