Main Idea • Home Address (identifiable IP address of the mobile user) • Analogies to a practical example – Home Address :: Permanent Address, Care-of Address :: Current Address, Home Agent :: some agent who keeps record of the mobile person’s whereabouts 1994-2004 Asia Pacific Networking Group All Copy Right Reserved

Issues in Mobile IPv6 • Handoff problem • Fast Mobile IPv6 (FMIPv6) • Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6) • Their Combination (FMIPv6+HMIPv6) • Flow-based solutions • Load Balancing & Multicast solutions 1994-2004 Asia Pacific Networking Group All Copy Right Reserved
Conclusion • In case of supporting IP Mobility, IPv6 is more robust and has supportive structure than its counterpart IPv4. And the extensions to Mobile IPv6 enables it to achieve almost seamless handoff • Any questions??? 1994-2004 Asia Pacific Networking Group All Copy Right Reserved
