Abstract

IPv6 can provide end-to-end security services such as access control, confidentiality, and data integrity with less impact on network performance. However, we can also prospect that there will be much more dangerous and tremendous type of attack on IPv6 than that on IPv4. So, we propose new IP traceback mechanism for tracing the spoofed real source on IPv6 packet using authentication mechanism. Proposed authentication mechanism supports the key disclosure mechanism on IPv6 packet marking with ICMPv6 on the IP traceback process.
