Abstract :
In network-based localized mobility management (NETLMM), a mobile node is not involved in signalling related to mobility support, and keeps the same IP address after handoff from one link to another. The mobile node´s current access router acts as a mobility access gateway by sending Proxy Local Binding Updates to the local mobility anchor on behalf of the mobile node. Due to some properties of the NETLMM domain, implementing it efficiently using IEEE 802.11 radio access networks is not straightforward. This paper presents the challenges involved with such an implementation, presents solutions to them, and analyze the overall performance of the complete system.
