Abstract

The rapid growth of mobile connected devices has facilitated the explosion of the Mobile Internet, that is IP-based communications involving hosts that frequently change their point of attachment to the Internet. Currently, the Host Identity Protocol (HIP) struggles to maintain the communication in case of 2-party move. This paper describes a HIP extension, based on the enhanced use of Rendezvous server, to provide the support of simultaneous mobility in the HIP layer. The design and the prototype implementation of the solution are presented as well as the framework for preliminary testing.
