node in an Active Network
 First-class, OS-style control over Java
“applications”
 Separately useful components

Research Goals I

Combine OS + Language
– Merge OS principles and Java typesafety to
create a real Java OS
– Explore which features of Java apply in an
OS context
– Explore which OS features map appropriately
into a Java OS

Research Goals II

Apply Java OS to the AN domain
– Leverage AN domain’s constraints
Can we safely expose low-level network
aspects?
 Can safe code go fast?

A “Java operating system” is...

An enhanced JVM that provides OS functions to
multiple Java “programs” within it
 Features:
– Separation
– Resource management
– Sometimes: direct sharing

Architectural abstractions taken from OS
– User/kernel boundary, processes, etc.
 Mechanisms taken from garbage collection

A killer application?!

Active Protocols for Agile
Censor-Resistant Networks
26
June 5, 2001
University of Utah
janos
Key Ideas
Censor-resistant (p2p) publishing is a
compelling and feasible application of
active networking
 …through on-demand, rapid,
decentralized, diversification of the hopby-hop protocol (manually, by people)

We prototyped this in Freenet
27
June 5, 2001
University of Utah
janos
Active Networking’s Biggest
Problem

Demand: no killer app
Inherent problem, by definition!
The space of AN protocols is
interesting, not any given protocol
But… a good match for censorresistant networks
28
June 5, 2001

Censor-Resistant Networks

Goals
– Make intentional deletion or denial of access
infeasible or difficult
– Often: Anonymity
Usually: overlay network
 An example: Freenet

29

Some Problems Facing CRNs

CRN traffic may be identifiable
– Static set of protocols a weakness

Mere membership may be incriminating
– Only identification may be necessary, not
eavesdropping
– Last link vulnerable: mercy of ISP

Users on restricted networks cannot
participate
– But special techniques can get traffic through
firewalls, proxies, etc.
30
June 5, 2001
University of Utah
janos
Agile Protocols

Use active networking techniques for
replacement of single-hop protocols
 Completely decentralized
– Any node (person) can create a new protocol & pass
to its peer
– Rapid response time to censorship
– Nodes can customize for their environment

Unbounded set of protocols
– Attacker cannot even know what percentage of set
they have discovered
31

Protocol Examples
Disguise and tunnel, eg through SMTP,
HTTP
 Port-hopping… randomly
 Port-smearing (~spread spectrum)
 Bounce thru 3rd host
 Steganography
 …even better in wireless domain:
physical & link level

What About Malicious
Protocol Objects?
33
June 5, 2001
University of Utah

Protecting Local Node’s Integrity,
Privacy, and Availability

Threat model like Java applet, but worse for
privacy
– node state: cache contents, neighbor list, IP addr,
username, …
– message itself

Integrity and privacy: std type-safety and
namespace isolation
 Resource attacks: resource-managing JVM
[OSDI’00, ...]
34
June 5, 2001

Publishing-specific DoS
Attacks

Same general issues as malicious nodes

Failure (total or intermittent)
– Either malicious or unintentional
– Heuristic approach: rate Protocol Objects
• Ratings based on success rates for requests
• Evaluate via loopback test harness
– Ratings are node-local

35
More attacks/responses in paper

What About Bootstrapping?
Shared by base Freenet system: must
acquire initial {IP addr, port} out-of-band
 Now need {IP addr, byte code}
 Quantitative difference ==> qualitative
change?
 Memory, piece of paper ==> floppy disk,
email attachment, applet
 Conclusion: acceptable

36

Our Implementation
Prototype based on Freenet system
 Peers can exchange Java bytecode for
new protocols
 Protocol usage can be asymmetric, can
change on any message boundary
 Restricted namespace

37
June 5, 2001
University of Utah
janos
Four sample Protocol Objects
‘Classic’ Freenet protocol
 HTTPProtocol: Looks (vaguely) like HTTP
 TrickyProtocol: Negotiates port change
after every message
 SpreadProtocol: Splits message on
arbitrary byte boundaries, sends each
chunk on a different port


Reprise:AN’s Major Technical
Challenges

Performance: no problem
– In Java already!
– Overlay network: IP not my problem

Security
– Key: change local, keep global protocol
– Global network: domain-specific, therefore tractable.
– Local to node: tractable, based on recent research

Agile Experiment: Conclusions

AN techniques seem likely to improve the
censor-resistance of such networks
 Feasible to implement in existing systems
 Lots still to do

Implement ratings, etc, etc
JanosVM + runtime, re-engineer base
Evaluate in the lab
Evaluate “in the wild”
Lot of fun, lot of military relevance

Mistakes I

Over-emphasis on strict hierarchy
– Original nested process model
– NodeOS mempools

NodeOS/EE split
– Makes a nearly impossible research
challenge even harder

44
Under-emphasis on applications
June 5, 2001

Mistakes II

Too much energy on software artifacts
– ==> Missed research opportunities

ANTS?
– Most aggressive AN model
– Dated
