Abstract
Methods for dynamic management of security associations in a network are provided. According to one method, a security key management entity determines whether to apply a new security key as an active security key based on an existing active security key. Each of the new security key and the existing active security key are associated with a same home agent, and the existing active security key serves as a basis for an existing security association between the home agent and at least one other network element.
