Abstract:
This document extends the constrained Bootstrapping Remote Secure Key
Infrastructures (cBRSKI) onboarding protocol by adding a new network
function, the constrained Join Proxy. This function can be
implemented by a constrained node [RFC7228]. The goal of the Join
Proxy is to help new constrained nodes ("Pledges") securely onboard
into a new IP network using the cBRSKI protocol. It acts as a
circuit proxy for User Datagram Protocol (UDP) packets that carry the
onboarding messages. The solution is extendible to support other
UDP-based onboarding protocols as well. The Join Proxy functionality
is designed for use in constrained networks [RFC7228], including IPv6
over Low-Power Wireless Personal Area Networks (6LoWPAN) [RFC4944]
based mesh networks in which the onboarding authority server
("Registrar") may be multiple IP hops away from a Pledge. Despite
this distance, the Pledge only needs to use link-local UDP
communication to complete cBRSKI onboarding. Two modes of Join Proxy
operation are defined, stateless and stateful, to allow implementers
to make different trade-offs regarding resource usage, implementation
complexity and security.
