    摘要: Aggregated signaling methods and apparatus which can be used to support the aggregation of Mobile IP binding registration information corresponding to multiple forwarding tunnels are described. Aggregated binding update message are used to enable multiple home addresses from one or more home agents to be installed, refreshed and deleted using a single MIP signaling phase. The single MIP signaling phase may correspond to a single MIP binding update message. Aggregated message techniques can also be used to retrieve multiple home address specific policy profiles via AAA signaling thereby reducing the number of AAA messages required to retrieve AAA information, e.g., profiles, corresponding to multiple home addresses.

    摘要: This document describes a way to extend Mobile IP Authentication Authorization and Accounting (AAA) signaling to enable a node to request from a network operator combinations of home and local service capabilities (when roaming) in an efficient and scalable manner. It also enables the home and foreign service providers to constrain and account for actual services provided based on a combination of the foreign and home operator policy.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for using a novel Care of Address option in a packet header which allows a mobile node to includes its HoA as the source address and its CoA in a new header field referred to herein as a CAO field are described. When the CAO is present, ingress filtering is performed by an access node on the address included in the CAO instead of the address in the source address, e.g., the HoA, or, is performed on the address in the CAO option field in cases where the source address does not pass ingress filtering, e.g., because the HoA corresponds to a different subnet than the access subnet due to the MN visiting a foreign subnet. Various flags may be included in the CAO field relating to security and/or processing operation to be performed by a receiving node.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for enhancing Mobile IP signaling and to support use of disparate addressing plans and dynamic Home Agent allocation in Mobile IP Regional Tunneling are described. The enhanced methods of signaling use an intermediate node, e.g., a Gateway Foreign Agent, straddling different addressing domains, when the signaling controls a process between the intermediate node and an upstream node. The specific intermediate node, its interfaces and upstream addresses can be dynamically selected. The Enhanced MIP signaling includes dynamic allocation of: a regional node at a Foreign Agent, the upstream address of a regional node by the regional node, a Home Agent for a regional node prior to dynamic allocation of the regional node. A method is supported to indicate to a Mobile Node that a dynamically allocated regional node has become invalid triggering enhanced MIP signaling dynamically allocating a new regional node and upstream interface address.

    摘要: MIP forwarding methods are described that use additional access link-layer identifiers and redirecting data packet identifiers to provide unambiguous forwarding through the MIP Foreign Agent when the Mobile Node has multiple Home Addresses, and/or when the Home Agent, or some intermediate MIP node between the Foreign Agent and the Home Agent, supports multiple pools of home addresses from overlapping address spaces. New identifiers are used to ensure that sufficient forwarding information exists in conjunction with the information in transmitted packets, to uniquely identify each packet flow. Each packet flow is a globally unique quartet of the MN identity, the HA, the HA address pool and the HoA.

    摘要: This application describes how Session Description Protocol (SDP) preconditions signaling can be enhanced to support lead role negotiation, precondition capability exchange, premature precondition attempts and concatenated preconditions processing. The application describes the use of send and receive tags in an SDP message for a given media line. In a given message, a success or failure tag may be associated with a send or receive tag in addition to an optional or mandatory condition indicator tag. A lead role indicator may also be associated with a send or receive tag to indicate a desired preference with regard to the sender or receiver taking the lead role. These additions lead to a greater chance of successful session set-up completion, reduce the number of signaling exchanges in general, and enable precondition attempts to be started earlier and to be executed in parallel.

    摘要: This invention describes how combined session and resource tracking in a mobile node (MN) and/or basestation in a dynamic network resource environment can be used to control reactions to resource shortages. The session that is to experience a resource shortage is detected either by the MN, or communicated to the MN where session signaling is used to modify the session according to MN and basestation policy/configuration. The basestation can alternatively modify the session itself with all the session peers, on behalf of the MN. The specific new reaction to resource shortages that is then enabled is to place the session on hold such that the resources are freed, but so that the session state is maintained in the peers. This is preferable to dropping the session, as is generally the case in dynamic environments, if the likely period of resource loss is short and the session modifications require less overhead than restarting the session when the resources return after dropping the session. In addition, before having resources removed, the basestation can provide the MN with an opportunity to upgrade the priority of its resource request compared to other users in the cell, so that a resource auction is conducted to decide which MN actually loses its resources.

    摘要: A way to deliver traffic to a mobile node that is undergoing a hand-off between two Access Routers (AR) is described. The method of the present invention operates to perform some or all of the following. Decrease, e.g., minimize, delays between the time the old link breaks and the first packet is sent from the new link. Reduce and/or eliminate packet bursts from old to new AR when an old (existing) link breaks. Ensure that packets are neither lost nor duplicated during hand-off. Maintain QoS control of delivery order to the MN. Make good or best use of multiple links during Make before break hand-off. Support both uplink and downlink traffic.
