Interoperability Specification (IOS) for Hybrid Mobile Station/Access Terminal (HAT) Authentication, Using the CAVE Algorithm

TIA | 2006 | 20 |
High Rate Packet Data (HRPD) network access authentication is
described in [1] and [2]. This document provides alternative
procedures that allow a properly configured Hybrid mobile station /
Access Terminal (HAT) to use its cdma2000®1 1x access
network authentication credentials and the Cellular Authentication
and Voice Encryption (CAVE) algorithm (refer to [6]) when accessing
an HRPD network that requires HRPD network access
authentication.
Because HRPD network access authentication is optional, it may
not be invoked by every HRPD network. If it is invoked by an HRPD
network, the network initiates the Challenge Handshake
Authentication Protocol (CHAP) [8]. In an HRPD network that
complies with [2], CHAP is used between the Access Network (AN) and
the HAT. In an HRPD network that complies with [1], CHAP is used
between the Packet Control Function (PCF) and the HAT. CHAP
specifies that the AN/PCF sends a CHAP Challenge message to the
HAT, and the HAT returns a CHAP Response message to the AN/PCF.
After receiving the CHAP Response message, the AN/PCF sends both
its challenge and the HAT's response to its Access
Network-Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AN-AAA)
function. The home AN-AAA authenticates the HAT and returns the
results to the AN/PCF.
For this feature of authenticating the HAT by using its cdma2000
1x access network authentication credentials and the CAVE
algorithm, the HAT treats the challenge in the CHAP Challenge
message as a global random challenge (refer to [3], [4] and [5]).
When the CHAP challenge message is received, the HAT uses the
challenge as input to the Run CAVE function on its Removable User
Identity Module (RUIM) (refer to [3], [4] and [5]) and places the
result in the CHAP response message.
When the home AN-AAA receives the HRPD network access
authentication request from the AN/PCF (refer to [1] and [2]), it
determines if the HAT used cdma2000 1x access network
authentication credentials and the CAVE algorithm to create its
CHAP response. If the HAT used cdma2000 1x access network
authentication credentials and the CAVE algorithm to create the
CHAP response, then the home AN-AAA authenticates the HAT using the
HAT's cdma2000 1x access network authentication credentials and the
CAVE algorithm. If the home AN-AAA cannot authenticate the HAT
independently, it communicates with the Home Location Register /
Authentication Center (HLR/AC) to authenticate the HAT.
