Integration of Mobile IP and Multi-Protocol Label Switching
Abstract: 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. This paper also defines the signaling and control mechanisms required to integrate MPLS and Mobile IP.
Key words: Multi-protocol Label Switching, Label Distribution Protocol, Mobile IP
