Abstract

Three-party tunnel-based roaming infrastructures may become a future trend to permit mobile users to connect to the Internet when they are not at home. Those solutions takle security issues for both visited networks and mobile users, but require an efficient and scalable accounting protocol. In this paper, we present a lightweight accounting protocol in which the quantity of data that the mobile is allowed to send is gradually increased when cryptographically signed receipts are received.
