A policy based management networking is a new paradigm used to achieve the network management. This paper presents a new policy based Mobile IP users management architecture based on a Common Open Policy Service (COPS) protocol which is currently deployed for QoS management. This paper introduces a new concept of terminal policy enforcement point (TPEP) which allows the terminal to interact with the network enforcing network policies defined by the network manager; it is a key feature of our architecture. The paper presents also the global architecture to support the mobile IP users requirements based mainly on two extensions of COPS protocol; COPS-SLS [1] for QoS negotiation and COPS-MU/MT [2] for policy based user and terminal mobility management.
