Abstract

IETF Mobile IPv6 allows nodes to perform an IP handover without breaking their active sessions. In Mobile IPv6, after re-associating a new attachment of point, it is generally the responsibility of a mobile node to detect that it has moved to a new IP subnet. Determining whether or not a node has moved to a new IP subnet is not always a simple issue. In this paper, we analyze the movement detection process of IPv6 mobile nodes based on standards, i.e. IETF RFC documents and IETF Working Group Internet-drafts. We model the movement detection process and provide our results of performance analysis for the model in terms of latency caused by the process.
