As an extension of Mobile IPv6, Network mobility (NEMO) was introduced by IETF in 2005. It allows session continuity for every node in the Mobile Network as the network moves. It also allows every node in the Mobile Network to be reachable while moving around. However, in the NEMO basic protocol, it is not mentioned how authentication issues are handled. Also, the NEMO protocol does not provide the secure message communication architecture between the MR and its access router. To address these security issues, a security authentication protocol based on an improved IKEv2 is proposed. This proposed protocol satisfies above two problems by using improved IKEv2 messages in handover procedure. In this protocol, the private key signature approach is adopted to resist impersonate attack, and the non-repudiation of the peers for their interactions is also achieved. The analysis and simulation results show that the proposed protocol is session key secure and has superior results in comparison to the NEMO basic protocol in terms of handover time, transmission delay, and packet lost rate.
