Host identity protocol proxy

چکیده
The Host Identity Protocol (HIP) is one of the more recent designs that challenge the current Internet architecture. The main features of HIP are security and the identifier-locator split, which solves the problem of overloading the IP address with two separate tasks. This paper studies the possibility of providing HIP services to legacy hosts via a HIP proxy. Making a host HIP enabled requires that the IP-stack of the host is updated to support HIP. From a network administrator's perspective this can be a large obstacle. However, by providing HIP from a centralized point, a HIP proxy, the transition to begin using HIP can be made smoother. This and other arguments for a HIP proxy will be presented in this paper along with an analysis of a prototype HIP proxy and its performance.

Distributed mobility management with mobile Host Identity Protocol proxy
The architectural evolution from hierarchical to flatter networks creates new challenges such as single points of failure and bottlenecks, non-optimal routing paths, scalability problems, and long handover delays. The cellular networks have been hierarchical so that they are largely built on centralized functions based on which their handover mechanisms have been built. They need to be redesign...
متن کاملSurvey and Evaluation of Advanced Mobility Management Schemes in the Host Identity Layer
This paper is committed to give an overview of the Host Identity Protocol (HIP), to introduce the basic ideas and the main paradigms behind it, and to make an exhaustive survey of mobility management schemes in the Host Identity Layer. The authors’ goal is to show how HIP emerges from the list of potential alternatives with its wild range of possible usability, complex feature set and power to ...
متن کاملMiddlebox Traversal of HIP Communication
The Host Identity Protocol (HIP) fundamentally changes the way two hosts in the Internet communicate. One key advantage over other schemes is that HIP does not require any modifications to the traditional network-layer functionality of the Internet, i.e., its routers. HIP deployment should therefore be transparent. In the current Internet, however, many devices other than routers may affect the...
