1. Introduction
The goal of this document is to define the common functionality
required from both IPv6 hosts and routers. Many IPv6 nodes will
implement optional or additional features, but all IPv6 nodes can be
expected to implement the mandatory requirements listed in this
document.
This document tries to avoid discussion of protocol details, and
references RFCs for this purpose. In case of any conflicting text,
this document takes less precedence than the normative RFCs, unless
additional clarifying text is included in this document.
Although the document points to different specifications, it should
be noted that in most cases, the granularity of requirements are
smaller than a single specification, as many specifications define
multiple, independent pieces, some of which may not be mandatory.
As it is not always possible for an implementer to know the exact
usage of IPv6 in a node, an overriding requirement for IPv6 nodes is
that they should adhere to Jon Postel's Robustness Principle:
Be conservative in what you do, be liberal in what you accept from
others [RFC-793].
1.1 Requirement Language
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC-2119].
1.2 Scope of this Document
IPv6 covers many specifications. It is intended that IPv6 will be
deployed in many different situations and environments. Therefore,
it is important to develop the requirements for IPv6 nodes, in order
to ensure interoperability.
This document assumes that all IPv6 nodes meet the minimum
requirements specified here.
1.3 Description of IPv6 Nodes
From Internet Protocol, Version 6 (IPv6) Specification [RFC-2460] we
have the following definitions:
Description of an IPv6 Node
Loughney (editor) February 16, 2004 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft
- a device that implements IPv6
Description of an IPv6 router
- a node that forwards IPv6 packets not explicitly addressed to
itself.
Description of an IPv6 Host
- any node that is not a router.

3. Sub-IP Layer
Loughney (editor) February 16, 2004 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft
An IPv6 node must include support for one or more IPv6 link-layer
specifications. Which link-layer specifications are included will
depend upon what link-layers are supported by the hardware available
on the system. It is possible for a conformant IPv6 node to support
IPv6 on some of its interfaces and not on others.
As IPv6 is run over new layer 2 technologies, it is expected that new
specifications will be issued. This section highlights some major
layer 2 technologies and is not intended to be complete.
3.1 Transmission of IPv6 Packets over Ethernet Networks - RFC2464
Nodes supporting IPv6 over Ethernet interfaces MUST implement
Transmission of IPv6 Packets over Ethernet Networks [RFC-2464].
3.2 IP version 6 over PPP - RFC2472
Nodes supporting IPv6 over PPP MUST implement IPv6 over PPP [RFC-
2472].
3.3 IPv6 over ATM Networks - RFC2492
Nodes supporting IPv6 over ATM Networks MUST implement IPv6 over ATM
Networks [RFC-2492]. Additionally, RFC 2492 states:
A minimally conforming IPv6/ATM driver SHALL support the PVC mode
of operation. An IPv6/ATM driver that supports the full SVC mode
SHALL also support PVC mode of operation.
4. IP Layer
4.1 Internet Protocol Version 6 - RFC2460
The Internet Protocol Version 6 is specified in [RFC-2460]. This
specification MUST be supported.
Unrecognized options in Hop-by-Hop Options or Destination Options
extensions MUST be processed as described in RFC 2460.
The node MUST follow the packet transmission rules in RFC 2460.
Nodes MUST always be able to send, receive and process fragment
headers. All conformant IPv6 implementations MUST be capable of
sending and receving IPv6 packets; forwarding functionality MAY be
supported
RFC 2460 specifies extension headers and the processing for these
headers.
Loughney (editor) February 16, 2004 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft
A full implementation of IPv6 includes implementation of the
following extension headers: Hop-by-Hop Options, Routing (Type 0),
Fragment, Destination Options, Authentication and Encapsulating
Security Payload. [RFC-2460]
An IPv6 node MUST be able to process these headers. It should be
noted that there is some discussion about the use of Routing Headers
and possible security threats [IPv6-RH] caused by them.
4.2 Neighbor Discovery for IPv6 - RFC2461
Neighbor Discovery SHOULD be supported. RFC 2461 states:
"Unless specified otherwise (in a document that covers operating
IP over a particular link type) this document applies to all link
types. However, because ND uses link-layer multicast for some of
its services, it is possible that on some link types (e.g., NBMA
links) alternative protocols or mechanisms to implement those
services will be specified (in the appropriate document covering
the operation of IP over a particular link type). The services
described in this document that are not directly dependent on
multicast, such as Redirects, Next-hop determination, Neighbor
Unreachability Detection, etc., are expected to be provided as
specified in this document. The details of how one uses ND on
NBMA links is an area for further study."
Some detailed analysis of Neighbor Discovery follows:
Router Discovery is how hosts locate routers that reside on an
attached link. Router Discovery MUST be supported for
implementations.
Prefix Discovery is how hosts discover the set of address prefixes
that define which destinations are on-link for an attached link.
Prefix discovery MUST be supported for implementations. Neighbor
Unreachability Detection (NUD) MUST be supported for all paths
between hosts and neighboring nodes. It is not required for paths
between routers. However, when a node receives a unicast Neighbor
Solicitation (NS) message (that may be a NUD's NS), the node MUST
respond to it (i.e. send a unicast Neighbor Advertisement).
Duplicate Address Detection MUST be supported on all links supporting
link-layer multicast (RFC2462 section 5.4 specifies DAD MUST take
place on all unicast addresses).
A host implementation MUST support sending Router Solicitations.
Receiving and processing Router Advertisements MUST be supported for
Loughney (editor) February 16, 2004 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft
host implementations. The ability to understand specific Router
Advertisement options is dependent on supporting the specification
where the RA is specified.
Sending and Receiving Neighbor Solicitation (NS) and Neighbor
Advertisement (NA) MUST be supported. NS and NA messages are required
for Duplicate Address Detection (DAD).
Redirect functionality SHOULD be supported. If the node is a router,
Redirect functionality MUST be supported.
4.3 Path MTU Discovery & Packet Size
4.3.1 Path MTU Discovery - RFC1981
Path MTU Discovery [RFC-1981] SHOULD be supported, though minimal
implementations MAY choose to not support it and avoid large packets.
The rules in RFC 2460 MUST be followed for packet fragmentation and
reassembly.
4.3.2 IPv6 Jumbograms - RFC2675
IPv6 Jumbograms [RFC-2675] MAY be supported.
4.4 ICMP for the Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) - RFC2463
ICMPv6 [RFC-2463] MUST be supported.
4.5 Addressing
4.5.1 IP Version 6 Addressing Architecture - RFC3513
The IPv6 Addressing Architecture [RFC-3513] MUST be supported.
4.5.2 IPv6 Stateless Address Autoconfiguration - RFC2462
IPv6 Stateless Address Autoconfiguration is defined in [RFC-2462].
This specification MUST be supported for nodes that are hosts.
Nodes that are routers MUST be able to generate link local addresses
as described in RFC 2462 [RFC-2462].
From 2462:
The autoconfiguration process specified in this document applies
only to hosts and not routers. Since host autoconfiguration uses
information advertised by routers, routers will need to be
configured by some other means. However, it is expected that
Loughney (editor) February 16, 2004 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft
routers will generate link-local addresses using the mechanism
described in this document. In addition, routers are expected to
successfully pass the Duplicate Address Detection procedure
described in this document on all addresses prior to assigning
them to an interface.
Duplicate Address Detection (DAD) MUST be supported.
4.5.3 Privacy Extensions for Address Configuration in IPv6 - RFC3041
Privacy Extensions for Stateless Address Autoconfiguration [RFC-3041]
SHOULD be supported. It is recommended that this behavior be
configurable on a connection basis within each application when
available. It is noted that a number of applications do not work
with addresses generated with this method, while other applications
work quite well with them.
4.5.4 Default Address Selection for IPv6 - RFC3484
The rules specified in the Default Address Selection for IPv6 [RFC-
3484] document MUST be implemented. It is expected that IPv6 nodes
will need to deal with multiple addresses.
4.5.5 Stateful Address Autoconfiguration
Stateful Address Autoconfiguration MAY be supported. DHCPv6 [RFC-
3315] is the standard stateful address configuration protocol; see
section 5.3 for DHCPv6 support.
Nodes which do not support Stateful Address Autoconfiguration may be
unable to obtain any IPv6 addresses aside from link-local addresses
when it receives a router advertisement with the 'M' flag (Managed
address configuration) set and which contains no prefixes advertised
for Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (see section 4.5.2).
Additionally, such nodes will be unable to obtain other configuration
information such as the addresses of DNS servers when it is connected
to a link over which the node receives a router advertisement in
which the 'O' flag ("Other stateful configuration") is set.
4.6 Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) for IPv6 - RFC2710
Nodes that need to join multicast groups SHOULD implement MLDv2
[MLDv2]. However, if the node has applications, which only need
support for Any- Source Multicast [RFC3569], the node MAY implement
MLDv1 [MLDv1] instead. If the node has applications, which need
support for Source- Specific Multicast [RFC3569, SSMARCH], the node
MUST support MLDv2 [MLDv2].
Loughney (editor) February 16, 2004 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft
When MLD is used, the rules in "Source Address Selection for the
Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) Protocol" [RFC-3590] MUST be
followed.
5. Transport Layer and DNS
5.1 Transport Layer
5.1.1 TCP and UDP over IPv6 Jumbograms - RFC2147
This specification MUST be supported if jumbograms are implemented
[RFC- 2675].
5.2 DNS
DNS, as described in [RFC-1034], [RFC-1035], [RFC-3152], [RFC-3363]
and [RFC-3596] MAY be supported. Not all nodes will need to resolve
names. All nodes that need to resolve names SHOULD implement stub-
resolver [RFC-1034] functionality, in RFC 1034 section 5.3.1 with
support for:
- AAAA type Resource Records [RFC-3596];
- reverse addressing in ip6.arpa using PTR records [RFC-3152];
- EDNS0 [RFC-2671] to allow for DNS packet sizes larger than 512
octets.
Those nodes are RECOMMENDED to support DNS security extentions
[DNSSEC- INTRO], [DNSSEC-REC] and [DNSSEC-PROT].
Those nodes are NOT RECOMMENDED to support the experimental A6 and
DNAME Resource Records [RFC-3363].
5.2.2 Format for Literal IPv6 Addresses in URL's - RFC2732
RFC 2732 MUST be supported if applications on the node use URL's.
5.3 Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6) - RFC3315
5.3.1 Managed Address Configuration
Those IPv6 Nodes that use DHCP for address assignment initiate DHCP
to obtain IPv6 addresses and other configuration information upon
receipt of a Router Advertisement with the 'M' flag set, as described
in section 5.5.3 of RFC 2462. In addition, in the absence of a
router, those IPv6 Nodes that use DHCP for address assignment MUST
initiate DHCP to obtain IPv6 addresses and other configuration
information, as described in section 5.5.2 of RFC 2462. Those IPv6
nodes that do not use DHCP for address assignment can ignore the 'M'
Loughney (editor) February 16, 2004 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft
flag in Router Advertisements.
5.3.2 Other Configuration Information
Those IPv6 Nodes that use DHCP to obtain other configuration
information initiate DHCP for other configuration information upon
receipt of a Router Advertisement with the 'O' flag set, as described
in section 5.5.3 of RFC 2462. Those IPv6 nodes that do not use DHCP
for other configuration information can ignore the 'O' flag in Router
Advertisements.
An IPv6 Node can use the subset of DHCP described in [DHCPv6-SL] to
obtain other configuration information.
6. IPv4 Support and Transition
IPv6 nodes MAY support IPv4.
6.1 Transition Mechanisms
6.1.1 Transition Mechanisms for IPv6 Hosts and Routers - RFC2893
If an IPv6 node implements dual stack and tunneling, then RFC2893
MUST be supported.
RFC 2893 is currently being updated.
7. Mobile IP
The Mobile IPv6 [MIPv6] specification defines requirements for the
following types of nodes:
- mobile nodes
- correspondent nodes with support for route optimization
- home agents
- all IPv6 routers
Hosts MAY support mobile node functionality described in Section 8.5
of [MIPv6], including support of generic packet tunneling [RFC-2473]
and secure home agent communications [MIPv6-HASEC].
Hosts SHOULD support route optimization requirements for
correspondent nodes described in Section 8.2 of [MIPv6].
Routers SHOULD support the generic mobility-related requirements for
all IPv6 routers described in Section 8.3 of [MIPv6]. Routers MAY
support the home agent functionality described in Section 8.4 of
[MIPv6], including support of [RFC-2473] and [MIPv6-HASEC].
Loughney (editor) February 16, 2004 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft
8. Security
This section describes the specification of IPsec for the IPv6 node.
8.1 Basic Architecture
Security Architecture for the Internet Protocol [RFC-2401] MUST be
supported. RFC-2401 is being updated by the IPsec Working Group.
8.2 Security Protocols
ESP [RFC-2406] MUST be supported. AH [RFC-2402] MUST be supported.
RFC- 2406 and RFC 2402 are being updated by the IPsec Working Group.
8.3 Transforms and Algorithms
Current IPsec RFCs specify the support of certain transforms and
algorithms, NULL encryption, DES-CBC, HMAC-SHA-1-96, and HMAC-MD5-96.
The requirements for these are discussed first, and then additional
algorithms 3DES-CBC, AES-128-CBC and HMAC-SHA-256-96 are discussed.
NULL encryption algorithm [RFC-2410] MUST be supported for providing
integrity service and also for debugging use.
The "ESP DES-CBC Cipher Algorithm With Explicit IV" [RFC-2405] SHOULD
NOT be supported. Security issues related to the use of DES are
discussed in [DESDIFF], [DESINT], [DESCRACK]. It is still listed as
required by the existing IPsec RFCs, but as it is currently viewed as
an inherently weak algorithm, and no longer fulfills its intended
role.
The NULL authentication algorithm [RFC-2406] MUST be supported within
ESP. The use of HMAC-SHA-1-96 within AH and ESP, described in [RFC-
2404] MUST be supported. The use of HMAC-MD5-96 within AH and ESP,
described in [RFC-2403] MUST be supported. An implementer MUST refer
to Keyed- Hashing for Message Authentication [RFC-2104].
3DES-CBC does not suffer from the issues related to DES-CBC. 3DES-CBC
and ESP CBC-Mode Cipher Algorithms [RFC-2451] MAY be supported. AES-
CBC Cipher Algorithm [RFC-3602] MUST be supported, as it is expected
to be a widely available, secure algorithm that is required for
interoperability. It is not required by the current IPsec RFCs, but
is expected to become required in the future.
In addition to the above requirements, "Cryptographic Algorithm
Implementation Requirements For ESP And AH" [CRYPTREQ] contains the
current set of mandatory to implement algorithms for ESP and AH as
Loughney (editor) February 16, 2004 [Page 11]
Internet-Draft
well as specifying algorithms that should be implemented because they
may be promoted to mandatory at some future time. It is RECOMMENDED
that IPv6 nodes conform to the requirements in this document.
8.4 Key Management Methods
Manual keying MUST be supported.
IKE [RFC-2407] [RFC-2408] [RFC-2409] MAY be supported for unicast
traffic. Where key refresh, anti-replay features of AH and ESP, or
on- demand creation of Security Associations (SAs) is required,
automated keying MUST be supported. Note that the IPsec WG is working
on the successor to IKE [IKE2]. Key management methods for multicast
traffic are also being worked on by the MSEC WG.
"Cryptographic Algorithms for use in the Internet Key Exchange
Version 2" [IKEv2ALGO] defines the current set of mandatory to
implement algorithms for use of IKEv2 as well as specifying
algorithms that should be implemented because they made be promoted
to mandatory at some future time. It is RECOMMENDED that IPv6 nodes
implementing IKEv2 conform to the requirements in this
document.
9. Router-Specific Functionality
This section defines general host considerations for IPv6 nodes that
act as routers. Currently, this section does not discuss routing-
specific requirements.
9.1 General
9.1.1 IPv6 Router Alert Option - RFC2711
The IPv6 Router Alert Option [RFC-2711] is an optional IPv6 Hop-by-
Hop Header that is used in conjunction with some protocols (e.g.,
RSVP [RFC- 2205], or MLD [RFC-2710]). The Router Alert option will
need to be implemented whenever protocols that mandate its usage are
implemented. See Section 4.6.
9.1.2 Neighbor Discovery for IPv6 - RFC2461
Sending Router Advertisements and processing Router Solicitation MUST
be supported.
10. Network Management
Network Management MAY be supported by IPv6 nodes. However, for IPv6
Loughney (editor) February 16, 2004 [Page 12]
Internet-Draft
nodes that are embedded devices, network management may be the only
possibility to control these nodes.
10.1 Management Information Base Modules (MIBs)
The following two MIBs SHOULD be supported by nodes that support an
SNMP agent.
10.1.1 IP Forwarding Table MIB
IP Forwarding Table MIB [RFC-2096BIS] SHOULD be supported by nodes
that support an SNMP agent.
10.1.2 Management Information Base for the Internet Protocol (IP)
IP MIB [RFC-2011BIS] SHOULD be supported by nodes that support an
SNMP agent.
11. Security Considerations
This draft does not affect the security of the Internet, but
implementations of IPv6 are expected to support a minimum set of
security features to ensure security on the Internet. "IP Security
Document Roadmap" [RFC-2411] is important for everyone to read.
The security considerations in RFC2460 describe the following:
The security features of IPv6 are described in the Security
Architecture for the Internet Protocol [RFC-2401].
