Hi,

At least for IPv6, this is possible by using both asymetric and symetric
encryption. One solution might be the use of CGA-TSIG
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-rafiee-intarea-cga-tsig  ). I wrote a
paper about it and called it CGA-TSIGe (e represents encryption)

How?

1- Client asks for a public key of the server
2- Server answers with his own public key that is binded to his IP address
3- Client encrypt a session key using the public key of the server and also
encrypt the whole message using this session key and also can generate a
signature and sign the whole message.
4- server receive this message and decrypt the session key using his own
private key and decrypt the whole message using this session key.

I also evaluted the encryption and decryption using a public key
cryptography. If the message size or the session key is small(less than 100
bytes) then the encryption is in microseconds.

Security Analysis of this approach
- Nobody can spoof the public key of the server since there is a binding
between this public key and the server's IP address
- It provides both data integrity and confidentiality

Disadvantage
- It only supports IPv6 since CGA or SSAS that is the main algorithm in this
approach is supported by IPv6

Smile,
Hosnieh
P.S. I would need to update the draft and will do this soon.
