Re: [Mip4] accelerating smooth hand-over in regional tunnel



Hello Jee,

in that sense would it be possible to connect two FAs between two hierarchies or even an FA with two GFAs (shared FA)?
In the latter case, what GFA would the FA advertise in its advertisements?

Best Regards

Hi Niko,

I think this is a routing issue rathen than a Mobile IP issue. Direct
connection may accelerate packets redirection from the old FA to the new FA,
but registration process may not benefit from it. The architecture does not
have to be purely tree-like I think.

Hi all,

I have been reading through the draft-ietf-mobileip-reg-tunnel-04.txt. I
would like to know whether there has been any contemplation on enabling
two plain low-level FAs (of the same or other hierarchy) to be directly
connected. This would be a violation of hierarchical routing but may
accelerate smooth hand-overs. Furthermore, this would not have to be a
standard thing rather then only initiated by admins between FAs with
lots of hand-offs between each other. Would that have any other protocol
implications?

have a nice day
niko
