Abstract

Many IP traceback mechanisms have been proposed to identify the source of cyber-attacks in the IPv4-based network, the so-called Internet. However, most of existing traceback work is focused on responding to cyber-attacks in the IPv4-based network. Currently, the IPv4-based network is gradually transitioning to the Next Generation Network based on IPv6. In addition, considering the importance of mobility of a portable computer and/or machine, practical traceback techniques applicable to IPv6 and Mobile IPv6 environment will become more important in the near future. In this paper, we review typical existing traceback mechanisms and PMIPv6 technique briefly and propose a traceback mechanism which can identify the source of mobile attackers in IPv6 and PMIPv6 network.
