5、nd authorizing devices attached to a LAN. Use of this standard inconjunction with architecture and protocols of IEEE Std 802.1X-2004 extends the applicability of the latterto publicly accessible LAN/MAN media for which security has not already been defined. A proposedamendment, IEEE P802.1af, to IEE

6、E Std 802.1X-2004 is being developed to specify the additionalprotocols and interfaces necessary.This standard is not intended for use with IEEE Std 802.11, Wireless LAN Medium Access Control. Anamendment to that standard, IEEE Std 802.11i-2004, also makes use of IEEE Std 802.1X-2004, thusfacilitati

34、view1.1 IntroductionIEEE 802Local Area Networks (LANs) are often deployed in networks that support mission-criticalapplications. These include corporate networks of considerable extent, and public networks that supportmany customers with different economic interests. The protocols that configure, ma

35、nage, and regulateaccess to these networks typically run over the networks themselves. Preventing disruption and data lossarising from transmission and reception by unauthorized parties is highly desirable, since it is not practicalto secure the entire network against physical access by determined a

36、ttackers.MAC Security (MACsec), as defined by this standard, allows authorized systems that attach to andinterconnect LANs in a network to maintain confidentiality of transmitted data and to take measures againstframes transmitted or modified by unauthorized devices.MACsec facilitatesa) Maintenance

37、of correct network connectivity and servicesb) Isolation of denial of service attacksc) Localization of any source of network communication to the LAN of origind) The construction of public networks, offering service to unrelated or possibly mutually suspiciouscustomers, using shared LAN infrastruct

38、urese) Secure communication between organizations, using a LAN for transmissionf) Incremental and non-disruptive deployment, protecting the most vulnerable network components.To deliver these benefits, MACsec has to be used in conjunction with appropriate policies for higher-levelprotocol operation

39、in networked systems, an authentication and authorization framework, and networkmanagement. IEEE P802.1afB21provides authentication and cryptographic key distribution.MACsec protects communication between trusted components of the network infrastructure, thus protectingthe network operation. MACsec

41、acement for, end-to-end application-to-applicationsecurity protocols. The latter can secure application data independent of network operation, but cannotnecessarily defend the operation of network components, or prevent attacks using unauthorizedcommunication from reaching the systems that operate t

42、he applications.1.2 ScopeThe scope of this standard is to specify provision of connectionless user data confidentiality, frame dataintegrity, and data origin authenticity by media access independent protocols and entities that operatetransparently to MAC Clients. NOTEThe MAC Clients are as specified

43、 in IEEE Std 802, IEEE Std 802.2, IEEE Std 802.1D, IEEE Std 802.1Q,and IEEE Std 802.1X.2To this end ita) Specifies the requirements to be satisfied by equipment claiming conformance to this standard.b) Specifies the requirements for MAC Security in terms of provision of the MAC Service and thepreser

44、vation of the semantics and parameters of service requests and indications.c) Describes the threats, both intentional and accidental, to correct provision of the service.d) Specifies security services that prevent, or restrict, the effect of attacks that exploit these threats.e) Examines the potenti

45、al impact of both the threats and the use of MAC Security on the Quality ofService (QoS), specifying constraints on the design and operation of MAC Security entities andprotocols.f) Models support of the secure MAC Service in terms of the operation of media access control methodindependent MAC Secur

46、ity Entities (SecYs) within the MAC Sublayer.g) Specifies the format of the MACsec Protocol Data Unit (MPDUs) used to provide secure service.h) Identifies the functions to be performed by each SecY, and provides an architectural model of itsinternal operation in terms of Processes and Entities that

47、provide those functions.i) Specifies the interface/exchanges between a SecY and its associated and collocated MAC SecurityKey Agreement Entity (KaY, IEEE P802.1af B2) that provides and updates cryptographic keys.j) Specifies performance requirements and recommends default values and applicable range

48、s for theoperational parameters of a SecY.k) Specifies how SecYs are incorporated within the architectural structure within end stations andbridges.l) Establishes the requirements for management of MAC Security, identifying the managed objectsand defining the management operations for SecYs.m) Speci

49、fies the Management Information Base (MIB) module for managing the operation of MACSecurity in TCP/IP networks.n) Specifies requirements, criteria and choices of Cipher Suites for use with this standard.This standard does noto) Specify how the relationships between MACsec protocol peers are discovered and authenticated, assupported by key management or key distribution protocols, but makes use of IEEE P802.1af KeyAgreement for MAC security to achieve these functions.2Notes in text, tables, and figures are given for information only, and do not contain re
