MOBILE IP

AJAYJITH S
ROLL NO : 5
INTRODUCTION
◽️Mobile IP is a standard that allows users to move from one network to another
without loosing connectivity.

◽️Mobile devices have IP addresses that are associated with one network and moving
to another network means changing IP address.
◽️Mobile IP solves this problem by allowing the mobile node to use two IP addresses:

◽️A fixed home address and

◽️A care-of address

that changes at each new point of attachment.

◽️Mobile IP enables a computer to roam freely on the Internet or an organization's


network while still maintaining the same home address. Consequently, computing
activities are not disrupted when the user changes the computer's point of attachment to
the Internet or an organization's network. Instead, the network is updated with the new
location of the mobile node.
MOBILE IP FUNCTIONAL ENTITIES
Mobile Node (MN)

▫️The entity that may change its point of attachment from network to network in the Internet.

▫️Assigned a permanent IP called its home address to which other hosts send packets regardless of MN's
location.

▫️Since this IP doesn't change it can be used by long-livedapplications as MN's location changes.

Home Agent (HA)

▫️Stores information about mobile nodes whose permanent home address is in the home agent's network. *
Does mobility binding of MN's IP with its CoA(Care of Address).

▫️Forwards packets to appropriate network when MN is away.


Foreign Agent (FA)
◽️If Mobile Node (MN) is away from Home Agent (HA) then it uses

an Foreign Agent (FA) to send/receive data to/from

Home Agent (HA).

Care-of-address (COA)
◽️Address which identifies Mobile Node's (MN's)current location.

◽️It is temporary IP address for a mobile device.

This allows a home agent to forward messages to the mobile device


MOBILE IP PROCESS
The Mobile IP process has three main phases.

◽️Agent Discovery - A mobile node discovers its foreign agents and home agents during
agent

discovery.

◽️Registration - The mobile node registers its current location with the foreign agent and
home

agent during registration.

◽️Tunneling - A reciprocal tunnel is set up by the home agent to the care-of address (current
location of the mobile node on the foreign network) to route packets to the mobile node as it
roams.
IP VERSION 4(IPV4)

◽️Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) is the fourth version in the


development of the Internet Protocol(IP) Internet, and routes most traffic
on the Internet.

◽️IPv4 uses 32-bit (four-byte) addresses, which limits the address space to
4294967296 (232) addresses.

◽️This limitation of IPv4 stimulated the development of IPv6 in the 1990s,


which has been in commercial deployment since 2006.
ISSUES THAT PROMOTED THE INTERNET ENGINEERING TASK FORCE
(IETF) TO DEVELOP IPV6

Limited address space.The IPv4 Addressing System uses 32-bit address space.
This 32-bit address space is further classified to usable A, B, and C classes. 32-bit address
space allows for 4,294,967,296 IPv4 Addresses.

Configuration.IPv4 must be configured, either manually or through the Dynamic Host


Configuration Protocol (DHCP).

Security.Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) is a protocol suitwhich enables network


security

Mobility.Mobility is a new requirement for Mobile devices, due to a lack of infrastructure


it cannot provide smooth mobility.
IP VERSION 6 (IPV6)
◽️IPv6 is designed to be an improved version of

the current IPv4 protocol.

◽️IPv6 has 128 bits available for addressing,

meaning that the available addresses are 2128

which is 1028 more than in IPv4.

◽️Thus Network Address Translation (NAT), is not longer needed in IPv6 networks.

◽️An IPv6 address is usually written as eight groups of four hexadecimal digits,

e.g. 2001: Oba8: 85a3:08d3: 1319: 8a2e: 0170: 7221


The IPv6 addresses are divided into three categories:

Unicast Addresses. Defines a single network interface. A packet sent to a unicast address is
delivered to one specific computer.

Multicast Addresses. Are used to define a set of network interfaces that belong to several computers.
A packet sent to multicast address is delivered to all network interfaces identified by that address.

Anycast Addresses. Several network interfaces share the same anycast address. By sending a
message to an anycast address, a message from a network node can be sent to several hosts with the
idea that the nearest host receives the message and then distributes it to the others with the same
anvcast address. This feature is usable ie when updating
CORRESPONDENT REGISTRATION

◽️Correspondent Node

A correspondent node is a mobile or stationary peer communicating with a mobile node.

◽️When a Mobile Node wants to send packets to the Correspondent Node for the first
time, it has to determine whether it can communicate with the Correspondent Node
directly, using route optimization, or indirectly, using bidirectional tunneling.
BIDIRECTIONAL TUNNELING

◽️When a Correspondent Node wants to communicate with the Mobile Node indirectly.

◽️CN sends the data packets to the MN's Home address, which the home agent intercepts
and tunnels them using IPv6-over-IPv6 tunneling to the COA of the MN
CONCLUSION
◽️Mobile IP is the new generation technology to bring wireless data
communication in to common use.

◽️Mobile IP will play an increasingly important part in the deployment of future


Internet mobile networking.

◽️IPv6 has more addresses than IPv4, so NAT is not required.

◽️Mobile IPv6 is Lightweight protocol.
