"IPv4 Support for Proxy Mobile IPv6", Ryuji Wakikawa, Sri Gundavelli, 13-Jul-09. ( bytes)

This document specifies extensions to Proxy Mobile IPv6 protocol for adding IPv4 protocol support. The scope of IPv4 protocol support is two-fold: 1) enable IPv4 home address mobility support to the mobile node. 2) allowing the mobility entities in the Proxy Mobile IPv6 domain to exchange signaling messages over an IPv4 transport network.

"GRE Key Option for Proxy Mobile IPv6", Ahmad Muhanna, Mohamed Khalil, Sri Gundavelli, Kent Leung, 5-May-09. ( bytes)

This specification defines a new Mobility Option for allowing the mobile access gateway and the local mobility anchor to negotiate GRE (Generic Routing Encapsulation) encapsulation mode and exchange the downlink and uplink GRE keys which are used for marking the downlink and uplink traffic that belong to a specific mobility session. In addition, the same mobility option can be used to negotiate the GRE encapsulation mode without exchanging the GRE keys.

"Heartbeat Mechanism for Proxy Mobile IPv6", Vijay Devarapalli, Rajeev Koodli, Heeseon Lim, Nishi Kant, Suresh Krishnan, Julien Laganier, 9-Apr-09. ( bytes)

Proxy Mobile IPv6 is a network-based mobility management protocol. The mobility entities involved in the Proxy Mobile IPv6 protocol, the Mobile Access Gateway (MAG) and the Local Mobility Anchor (LMA), setup tunnels dynamically to manage mobility for a mobile node within the Proxy Mobile IPv6 domain. This document describes a heartbeat mechanism between the MAG and the LMA to detect failures, quickly inform peers in the event of a recovery from node failures, and allow a peer to take appropriate action.

"Interactions between PMIPv6 and MIPv6: scenarios and related issues", Gerardo Giaretta, 1-Jun-09. ( bytes)

The scenarios where Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) and Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) protocols are both deployed in a network require some analysis and considerations. This document describes all identified possible scenarios, which require an interaction between PMIPv6 and MIPv6 and discusses all issues related to these scenarios. Solutions and recommendations to enable these scenarios are also described.

"LMA Discovery for Proxy Mobile IPv6", Jouni Korhonen, Vijay Devarapalli, 25-May-09. ( bytes)

Large Proxy Mobile IPv6 deployments would benefit from a functionality, where a Mobile Access Gateway could dynamically discover a Local Mobility Anchor for a Mobile Node attaching to a Proxy Mobile IPv6 domain. The purpose of the dynamic discovery functionality is to reduce the amount of static configuration in the Mobile Access Gateway. This specification describes a number of possible dynamic Local Mobility Anchor discovery solutions.

"Proxy Mobile IPv6 Management Information Base", Glenn Mansfield, Kazuhide Koide, Sri Gundavelli, Ryuji Wakikawa, 29-Jul-09. ( bytes)

This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB), the Proxy Mobile-IPv6 MIB, for use with network management protocols in the Internet community. In particular, the Proxy Mobile-IPv6 MIB will be used to monitor and control the mobile access gateway (MAG) node and the local mobility anchor (LMA) functions of a Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) entity.
