Integration of mobile IP and multi-protocol label switching
نویسندگان
چکیده
Multi-Protocol Label Switching is a technology that combines the simplicity of IP routing with the high-speed switching of ATM. Mobile IP is a protocol that allows users to move around and yet maintain continuous IP network connectivity. In this paper, we propose a scheme to integrate the Mobile IP and MPLS protocols. The integration improves the scalability of the Mobile IP data forwarding process by leveraging on the features of MPLS which are fast switching, small state maintenance and high scalability. In addition, we have removed the need for IP-in-IP tunneling from HA to FA under this scheme. This paper covers some issues regarding Mobile IP scalability and also defines the signaling and control mechanisms required to integrate MPLS and Mobile IP. Keywords—Multi-protocol Label Switching (MPLS), Label Distribution Protocol (LDP), Mobile IP (MIP)

Integration of Hierarchical Mobile IP into a MPLS-based UTRAN
The UMTS specification (Release 5), a third-generation mobile system, proposes an all-IP network architecture. In the near future, UMTS will offer a variety of services to users. Some of these services, e.g. real-time services, require a certain guaranteed quality of service. Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) is a technology providing means to control data flows in IP networks. MPLS has bee...
متن کاملSupport of micro-mobility in MPLS-based wireless access networks
In this paper, we propose an architecture for the MPLS (Multi-Protocol Label Switching)-based micro-mobility management including label switched path setup, packet forwarding, handoff processing, and paging. In order to prevent packet loss during handoff, we propose two packet recovery mechanisms, namely: buffer time-based packet recovery and medium access control (MAC) layer assisted packet re...
متن کاملLiterature Review on Mobile MPLS Techniques
Mobile MPLS (Multi Protocol Label Switching) is a new technique which integrates the Mobile IP (MIP) and MPLS and thus inherits the advantages of both. MIP supports the mobility whereas MPLS provides faster streaming throughout the network, hence providing requisite QoS to the application. The objective of this paper is to survey the efforts that have been done to enhance the MIP functionality ...

This paper proposes a handover scheme supporting MultiProtocol Label Switching (MPLS) in a Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) domain that improves the mobility and gives Quality of Service (QoS) and Traffic Engineering (TE) capabilities in wireless access networks. The proposed scheme takes advantages of both PMIPv6 and MPLS. PMIPv6 was designed to provide NETwork-based Localized Mobility Management (N...
متن کاملMobility label based network: Hierarchical mobility management and packet forwarding architecture
Scalability of the network layer mobility management solution is one of the most important requirements for the mobility control plane. Mobility Label Based Network (MLBN) is a new approach to the network layer mobility management problem that relies solely on MPLS to provide both macroand micro-mobility for IPv4 and IPv6 mobile hosts and routers. This new approach does not rely on the existing...
