Native NAT Traversal Mode for the Host Identity Protocol
RFC 9028, “Native NAT Traversal Mode for the Host Identity Protocol”, is an Experimental document published in July 2021 by A. Keränen, J. Melén, M. Komu. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document specifies a new Network Address Translator (NAT) traversal mode for the Host Identity Protocol (HIP). The new mode is based on the Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE) methodology and UDP encapsulation of data and signaling traffic. The main difference from the previously specified modes is the use of HIP messages instead of ICE for all NAT traversal procedures due to the kernel-space dependencies of HIP.
What “Experimental” means
Describes a specification that is part of a research or development effort, published so the community can gain experience with it.
