Abstract

In Mobile IPv6, when a MN (Mobile Node) moves from home network to the foreign network, it configures a new Care-of-Address (CoA) and requests the Home Agent (HA) to update its binding. This binding process requires high signaling load. Thus, Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6) has been proposed to accommodate frequent mobility of the MN and reduce the signaling load in the Internet. In this paper, we propose hierarchical management scheme for Mobile IPv6 where MAP (Mobility Anchor Point) has web proxy function for minimizing signaling load in HMIPv6. The performance analysis and the numerical results presented in this paper shows that our proposal has superior performance to the HMIPv6
