NEMO-Based Distributed Mobility Management

Abstract

Mobile IPv6 protocol allows a single Mobile Node (MN) to keep the same IPv6 address independently of its network of attachment. One of these extensions, Network Mobility (NEMO) Basic Support protocol is an extension Mobile IPv6. NEMO signaling is performed with extended Mobile IPv6 messages. NEMO Basic Support protocol is concerned with managing the mobility of an entire network, it provides for devices or vehicles which move to another point of attachment to the Internet. This paper proposes a distributed mobility solution based on NEMO for mobile IP networks. This distributed mobility solution that is simple to overcome the drawbacks of the traditional NEMO protocol which is centralized mobility management.
