Multi-homing for small scale fixed network Using Mobile IP and NEMO

Overview

RFC 4908, “Multi-homing for small scale fixed network Using Mobile IP and NEMO”, is an Experimental document published in June 2007 by K. Nagami, S. Uda, N. Ogashiwa, H. Esaki, R. Wakikawa, H. Ohnishi. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.

Abstract

Multihoming technology improves the availability of host and network connectivity. Since the behaviors of fixed and mobile networks differ, distinct architectures for each have been discussed and proposed. This document proposes a common architecture for both mobile and fixed networking environments, using mobile IP (RFC 3775) and Network Mobility (NEMO; RFC 3963). The proposed architecture requires a modification of mobile IP and NEMO so that multiple Care-of Addresses (CoAs) can be used. In addition, multiple Home Agents (HAs) that are located in different places are required for redundancy. This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community.
