9.5.1 Receiving Binding Updates
   If the receiving node no longer recognizes the Home Nonce Index
   value, Care-of Nonce Index value, or both values from the Binding
   Update, then the receiving node MUST send back a Binding
   Acknowledgement with status code 136, 137, or 138, respectively.
5.2.7 Updating Node Keys and Nonces
   Correspondent nodes generate nonces at regular intervals.  It is
   recommended to keep each nonce (identified by a nonce index)
   acceptable for at least MAX_TOKEN_LIFETIME seconds (see Section 12)
   after it has been first used in constructing a return routability
   message response.  However, the correspondent node MUST NOT accept
   nonces beyond MAX_NONCE_LIFETIME seconds (see Section 12) after the
   first use.  As the difference between these two constants is 30
   seconds, a convenient way to enforce the above lifetimes is to
   generate a new nonce every 30 seconds.  The node can then continue to
   accept tokens that have been based on the last 8 (MAX_NONCE_LIFETIME
   / 30) nonces.  This results in tokens being acceptable
   MAX_TOKEN_LIFETIME to MAX_NONCE_LIFETIME seconds after they have been
   sent to the mobile node, depending on whether the token was sent at
   the beginning or end of the first 30 second period.  Note that the
   correspondent node may also attempt to generate new nonces on demand,
   or only if the old nonces have been used.  This is possible, as long
   as the correspondent node keeps track of how long a time ago the
   nonces were used for the first time, and does not generate new nonces
   on every return routability request.

    MAX_NONCE_LIFETIME              240 seconds
9.5.4 Sending Binding Acknowledgements
   If the Status field in the Binding Acknowledgement contains the value
   136 (expired home nonce index), 137 (expired care-of nonce index), or
   138 (expired nonces) then the message MUST NOT include the Binding
   Authorization Data mobility option.  Otherwise, the Binding
   Authorization Data mobility option MUST be included, and MUST meet
   the specific authentication requirements for Binding Acknowledgements
   as defined in Section 5.2.
