Semantically opaque Interface Identifiers, instead of meaningful | ||||
Interface Identifiers derived from a valid and meaningful MAC address | ||||
([RFC2464], section 4), MAY be needed in order to avoid certain | ||||
privacy risks. | ||||
A valid MAC address includes a unique identifier pointing to a | ||||
company together with its postal address, and a unique number within | ||||
that company MAC space (see the oui.txt file). The calculation | ||||
operation of the MAC address back from a given meaningful Interface | ||||
Identifier is straightforward ([RFC2464], section 4). The Interface | ||||
Identifier is part of an IPv6 address that is stored in IPv6 packets. | ||||
The IPv6 packets can be captured in the Internet easily. For these | ||||
reasons, an attacker may realize many attacks on privacy. One such | ||||
attack on 802.11-OCB is to capture, store and correlate Company ID | ||||
information of many cars in public areas (e.g. listen for Router | ||||
Advertisements, or other IPv6 application data packets, and record | ||||
the value of the source address in these packets). Further | ||||
correlation of this information with other data captured by other | ||||
means, or other visual information (car color, others) MAY constitute | ||||
privacy risks. | ||||
In order to avoid these risks, opaque Interface Identifiers MAY be | ||||
formed according to rules described in [RFC7217]. These opaque | ||||
Interface Identifiers are formed starting from identifiers different | ||||
than the MAC addresses, and from cryptographically strong material. | ||||
Thus, privacy sensitive information is absent from Interface IDs, and | ||||
it is impossible to calculate the initial value from which the | ||||
Interface ID was calculated. | ||||
Some applications that use IPv6 packets on 802.11-OCB links (among | ||||
other link types) may benefit from IPv6 addresses whose Interface | ||||
Identifiers don't change too often. It is RECOMMENDED to use the | ||||
mechanisms described in RFC 7217 to permit the use of Stable | ||||
Interface Identifiers that do not change within one subnet prefix. A | ||||
possible source for the Net-Iface Parameter is a virtual interface | ||||
name, or logical interface name, that is decided by a local | ||||
administrator. | ||||
The way Interface Identifiers are used MAY involve risks to privacy, | The way Interface Identifiers are used MAY involve risks to privacy, | |||
