Mobility and Multihoming Management and Strategies

چکیده
Abstract—Future IPv6 mobile terminals will be equipped with several wireless network interfaces in order to take full advantage of heterogeneous technologies. However, the usage of multiple interfaces is not straight forward, and requires some support. Yet, mobility and multihoming support has been provided by different protocols. In this paper we study the management of both of them through a single protocol, the SHIM6 protocol. The key feature of this protocol is the establishment of a context which allows two peers to exchange all the IP addresses they have. We discuss and evaluate the effect of mobility on the SHIM6 protocol, and we discuss different strategies for rehoming decisions. The evaluation is provided through experimentation over an IPv6 testbed.Future IPv6 mobile terminals will be equipped with several wireless network interfaces in order to take full advantage of heterogeneous technologies.

Multihoming Management for Future Networks
IP multihoming is a networking concept with a deceptively simple definition in theory. In practice, however, multihoming has proved difficult to implement and optimize for. Moreover, it is a concept, which, once adopted in the core Internet architecture, has a significant impact on operation and maintenance. A trivial definition of multihoming would state that an end-node or an end-site has mul...
متن کاملProxy Mobile Ipv6 with Transient Binding for Support of Multihoming
This document specifies the problems of multihoming[1]and solutions of multihoming provided by the transient Binding.[2] Transient Binding is a mechanism applicable to the mobile node's inter-MAG handover while using a single interface or different interfaces. This paper proposes an improvement in the Proxy Mobile IPv6.The extension of Proxy Mobile IPv6 with transient binding will support multi...
متن کاملExperience with the host identity protocol for secure host mobility and multihoming
The Host Identity Protocol (HIP) is a recent protocol proposal for secure host mobility and multihoming using a cryptographic-based name space for Internet hosts. HIP aims to decouple IP addresses from transport connections in a secure manner, thereby admitting network-level mobility and multihoming solutions that do not require the use of a single IP address as a host identifier. Although HIP ...
متن کاملPerformance Comparison of IPv6 Multihoming and Mobility Protocols
Multihoming and mobility protocols enable computing devices to stay always best connected (ABC) to the Internet. The focus of our study is on handover latency and rehoming time required by such protocols. We used simulations in OMNeT++ to study the performance of the following protocols that support multihoming, mobility or a combination thereof: Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6), Multiple Care-of Address Re...
متن کاملSurvey and Evaluation of Advanced Mobility Management Schemes in the Host Identity Layer
This paper is committed to give an overview of the Host Identity Protocol (HIP), to introduce the basic ideas and the main paradigms behind it, and to make an exhaustive survey of mobility management schemes in the Host Identity Layer. The authors’ goal is to show how HIP emerges from the list of potential alternatives with its wild range of possible usability, complex feature set and power to ...
