It has less protocol overhead than IPSec in Tunnel + mode and allows tunneling of every ETHER TYPE protocol (e.g. + ethernet, ip, arp ...). satp directly includes cryptography and + message authentication based on the methodes used by SRTP. It is + intended to deliver a generic, scaleable, secure and reliability + solution for tunneling and relaying of packets of any protocol. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +Gsenger Expires September 2, 2007 [Page 2] + +Internet-Draft secure anycast tunneling protocol (satp) March 2007 + + +1. Introduction + + anytun defines a Host Anycast Service as defined in rfc1546. It uses + a peer-to-peer achitecture, with anycast servers and unicast clients. + It can be used to build high scalable and redundant tunnel services. + It also has a relay mode, that makes it possible, that only one of + the connection endpoints has to use the anytun protocol. This can be + used to make connections through Firewalls or behind a NAT Router + + RFC3068 [1] DTD. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +Gsenger Expires September 2, 2007 [Page 3] + +Internet-Draft secure anycast tunneling protocol (satp) March 2007 + + +2. Operation modes + + This section gives an overview of possible operation modes und usage + scenarios. Please note, that the protocols used in the figures are + only examples and that anytun itself does not care about either + transport protocols or encapsulated protocols. Routing and network + address translation is not done by anytun. Each implemetation MAY + choose it's own way of doing this task (e.g. using functions provided + by the operating system). Anytun is used to establish and controll + tunnnels, to encapsulate and encrypt data. + +2.1.

This server makes a + routing descision based on the underlying protocol and transmits a + new anytun package to one or more clients depending on the routing + descition. The server MAY also route the packet to a directly + connected network or a service running on the server, but please + note, that this is only usefull for anycast host services like DNS + and that the services HAVE TO be running on all servers in order to + work. + + + + + + + +Gsenger Expires September 2, 2007 [Page 4] + +Internet-Draft secure anycast tunneling protocol (satp) March 2007 + + +2.1.2. tunneling from client to a server connected network + + An example of anytun used in open tunnel mode + + ----------- + | RTP | ---------- + ----------- -> |server 1| -> + | UDP | ---------- ----------- + ----------- | RTP | + ----- | IPv6 | ---------- ----------- ----- + | | -> ----------- -> |server 2| -> | UDP* | -> | | + ----- | anytun | ---------- ----------- ----- + ##### ----------- | IPv6* | ##### + | UDP | ---------- ----------- + client 1 ----------- -> |server 3| -> | ... | host + | IPv4 | ---------- not using + ----------- anytun + | ... | anycast + *changed source address + or port + + Figure 2 + + In open tunnel mode only one of two clients talking to each other + over the servers MUST use the anytun protocol. When a client using + the anytun protocol wants to tunnel data, it is building a connection + to the anycast servers using the anytun protocol. The anycast + servers relay the encapsulated packages directly to the destination + without using the anytun protocol. The source address of the + datagramm HAS TO be changed to the anycast address of the server. + The anytun servers act like a source NAT router, therefor for the + destination it saems that it is talking to the client directly. + +2.2. Transport modes + + Anytun does not define wich lower layer protocols HAVE TO be used, + but it's most likely used on top of udp. This section should only + discuss some issues on udp in combination with anycasting and + tunnels. + + + + + + + + + + + + +Gsenger Expires September 2, 2007 [Page 5] + +Internet-Draft secure anycast tunneling protocol (satp) March 2007 + + +2.2.1.

Using lightUDP + + An example of anytun used with udp transport + + ----------- ----------- + | RTP | ---------- | RTP | + ----------- -> |server 1| -> ----------- + | UDP | ---------- | UDP | + ----------- ----------- + ----- | IPv6 | ---------- | IPv6 | ----- + | | -> ----------- -> |server 2| -> ----------- -> | | + ----- | anytun | ---------- | anytun | ----- + ##### ----------- ----------- ##### + |lightUDP | ---------- |lightUDP | + client 1 ----------- -> |server 3| -> ----------- client 2 + | IPv4 | ---------- | IPv4 | + ----------- ----------- + | ... | anycast | ... | + + Figure 4 + + + + +Gsenger Expires September 2, 2007 [Page 6] + +Internet-Draft secure anycast tunneling protocol (satp) March 2007 + + + The difference between normal UDP and lightUDP is, that the udp size + is not set to the length of the full packet, but to the lenght of the + data used for the checksum and therefor the checksum is only + calculated for that part. When using lightUDP, the lenght HAS tO be + set to the udp header length + the anytun header lenght. So there is + no error correction or detection done on the payload. This can be + usefull if realtime data is beeing transimittet or the tunneled + protocol does error correction/detection by itself. + +2.2.3. Fragmentation + + The only way of fully supporting fragmentation would be to syncronise + fragments between all anycast servers. This is considered to be to + much overhead, so there are two non perfect solutions for this + problems. Either fragmentation HAS TO be disabled or if not all + fragments arrive at the same server the ip datagramm HAS TO be + discarded. As routing changes are not expected to occure very + frequently, the encapsulated protocol can do a retransmission and all + fragments will arrive at the new server. + +2.3.
