Title
Anti-Replay Window Protocols for Secure IP
Abstract
The anti-replay window protocol is used to secure IP against an adversary that can insert (possibly replayed) messages in the message stream from a source computer to a destination computer in the Internet. In this paper, we verify the correctness of this important protocol using standard methods (i.e. auxiliary variables, annotation, and invariants). We show that despite the adversary, the protocol delivers each message at most once, and discards a message only if another copy of this message has already been delivered, or the message has suffered a reorder of degree w or more, where w is the window size. We then develop two variations of this protocol: one variation uses two windows of size w/2 each, and the other uses w windows of size one each. We use the same standard methods to show that each of these protocols delivers every message at most once, and discards a message only if another copy of this message has already been delivered, or the message has suffered a reorder of degree w+d or more, where d is the sum of current distances between successive windows in the protocol. These two protocols are shown to be more effective than the original protocol.
