<p>A method of verifying a request made in respect of an IPv6 address comprising a network routing prefix and a cryptographically generated Interface Identifier. The request includes a delegation certificate containing a public key of the host, one or more further parameters or a formula or formulae for generating one or more further parameters, a specification of a range or set of IPv6 network routing prefixes, an identity of a delegated host, and a digital signature taken over at least the identity and the specification of a range or set of IPv6 network routing prefixes using a private key associated with the public key. The method verifies that the network routing prefix of said IPv6 address is contained within the specification, verifying that the public key and the further parameter(s) can be used to generate the cryptographically generated Interface Identifier, and verifying said signature using the public key.</p> |
