Mobile IP
Features of IPv6
National Institute Of Science & Technology
• 128 bit address.
• Address Auto configuration
– An IPv6 node configurs it address automatically by using the router
advertisements and it’s interface id.
• Extension Headers
– Routing header
• For route optimization
– Destination Options header
• For mobile node originated datagrams

Mobile IP
Mobile IPv6 Terminology
National Institute Of Science & Technology
Mobile Node
The node which moves between the networks.
Home Agent
The node in the Home network which knows the
information(like current location...etc) about the mobile node’s,
which belongs to that network.
Correspondent Node
Any node which contacts the Mobile node.

Mobile IPv6 Terminology (Continued)
National Institute Of Science & Technology
Home Address
Address of the Mobile Node in the Home Network
Care-of Address
Addess of the Mobile Node in the Foreign network
Home Link
The link on which a mobile node's home subnet prefix
is defined. Standard IP routing mechanisms will deliver
packets destined for a mobile node's home address to its home
link.

Mobile IP
Foreign Link
National Institute Of Science & Technology
Any link other than the mobile node's home link.
Binding
The association of the home address of amobile node
with a care-of address for that mobile node.

Mobile IPv6 Operation
National Institute Of Science & Technology
• Mobile IPv6 operation can be divided in to
3 parts
Discovering the care-of address
Registering the care-of address
Tunneling to the care-of address

Mobile IPv6 Operation (cont...)
National Institute Of Science & Technology
• Discovering the care-of address
A Mobile Node(MN) performs address autoconfiguration to
get its care-of address
• Resistsering the care-of address
1. The MN registers its care-of address with its home agent
by sending a Binding Update request to it’s Home Agent
(HA)
2. HA sedns a Binding Acknowledgement to the
corresponding mobile node.

Mobile IPv6 address updates
National Institute Of Science & Technology
• Mobile Node needs to update the Home Agent on it’s
current location
– Binding Update message
– The Home Agent keeps this binding for future use

Route Optimization
National Institute Of Science & Technology
• MN may bind BU in pkts to CN, allowing CN to
directly send pkts to MN
– CN receive a pkt with BU in it, then update its Binding
Cache
– Just like any IPv6 node, every time it attempt to sent
pkts, it check its Binding Cache:
• If there is an entry with CoA of the destination, use the
CoA
• Otherwise, use the origin address

Movement Detection
National Institute Of Science & Technology
– While away from home, an MN selects one
router and one subnet prefix advertised by that
router to use as the subnet prefix in its primary
care-of address
– To wait for the periodically sent Router
Advertisements

Dynamic Home Agent Address Discovery
National Institute Of Science & Technology
It is possible that when the mobile node needs to send
a Binding Update to its home agent to register its new
primary care-of address, the mobile node may not know the
address of any router on its home link that can serve as a
home agent for it.
