Method and system for generating and distributing mobile IP key

A system for generating and distributing a mobile IP (MIP) key, comprising:

• a home agent (HA) and a foreign agent (FA), wherein
• the FA is configured to receive an MIP registration request from a mobile node (MN) and transmit the MIP registration request to the HA, wherein the MIP registration request carries a first authentication extension (AE) between the MN and the HA, and the first AE is generated according to a first key between the MN and the HA computed by using an IP address replacement value of the HA, wherein all bits of the IP address replacement value of the HA are 0 or all bits of the IP address replacement value of the HA are 1;
• the HA is configured to receive the MIP registration request from the FA, obtain from an authentication server the first key and a second key between the MN and the HA computed by using an IP address of the HA, validate the first AE in the registration request by using the first key, and transmit an MIP registration report carrying a second AE generated according to the second key to the FA after the successful validation;
• and
• the FA is further configured transmit the registration report carrying the second AE to the MN, so that the MN can validate the second AE by using the second key.

A method for generating and distributing a mobile IP (MIP) key, comprising:

• receiving, by a foreign agent (FA), an MIP registration request from a proxy MIP (PMIP) client, wherein the MIP registration request carries a first authentication extension (AE), the first AE is generated according to a first key between a mobile node (MN) and a home agent (HA) computed by using an IP address replacement value of the HA, wherein all bits of the IP address replacement value of the HA are 0 or all bits of the IP address replacement value of the HA are 1;
• transmitting, by the FA, the MIP registration request to the HA;
• receiving, by the HA, the MIP registration request transmitted by the FA, and obtaining from an authentication server the first key and a second key between the MN and the HA computed by using an IP address of the HA;
• validating, by the HA, the first AE in the registration request by using the first key, and transmitting an MIP registration report to the FA after successful validation, wherein the registration report carries a second AE generated according to the second key;
• and
• transmitting, by the FA, the registration report carrying the second AE to the PMIP-client.
