Abstract
IP is the basic protocol in the Internet. The authors explore a variety of possibilities to adapt the wireless environment to that of IP. They describe the requirements and show how these can be accommodated by using the existing IP. At the heart of the problem is the lack of a capability in the current IP routing services to track topological changes. Several alternatives are described, each making use of a different combination of the addressing and routing features offered by IP. The alternatives are compared. The tradeoffs among these alternatives are explored
