A technology is disclosed for providing a connection status notifying method and the like that can infer that a new connection will become usable shortly based on a predetermined action, and give notification thereof. The technology includes a step at which a mobile node 1000 receives information stating that connection will be broken from a base station that is a current connection destination, a step at which the mobile node starts a predetermined process with a base station that is a new connection destination, and a step at which the mobile node generates a predetermined notification message and transmits the generated predetermined notification message when the predetermined process is judged to be completed, the predetermined notification message being used to give notification to a predetermined component part within the mobile node or to another communication node that a connected state is established with the base station of the new connection destination at an early stage.

There is provided a technique for reducing the number of messages handled in a Return Routability (RR) procedure for performing authentication between a mobile node (MN) and a peer communication node (CN). According to the technique, an MN 1 pairs two or more care-of addresses assigned respectively to one or more interfaces, and sends a CN 3 one or more first messages including a second care-of address by setting a first care-of address in each pair of care-of addresses as a source address. The CN 3 receives the one or more first messages, generates signature tokens for the first and second care-of addresses, and sends one or more second messages including the generated signature tokens to the second care-of address of the MN 2.

A technique is disclosed, according to which a race condition between a PMIPv6 binding by a PBU message of PMIPv6 and a CMIPv6 binding by a BU message of CMIPv6 can be resolved. MN 200 has a plurality of radio communication interfaces, and a first interface is connected to MAG 220 of a home PMIPv6 domain 230, for instance. In case the connection of a second interface is changed from MAG 221 of a home PMIPv6 domain to AR 222 of a CMIPv6 domain 231, a BU message 262 is transmitted from the second interface to LMA/HA 250, and identification information of this BU message is notified to MAG from the first interface. By adding time information to this identification information and by transmitting it to LMA/HA, MAG can identify transmission time of the BU message (i.e. relative order with the other messages) from this time information.

Disclosed is a technique for surely supporting multihoming for a mobile terminal (mobile node) moving in a local mobility domain. A mobile node (MN) 11 connects via an IF 110 to a mobile access gateway (MAG) 102 that supports multihoming, and further attempts to connect via an IF 111 to a MAG 103 that does not support multihoming. Under these conditions, according to this technique, when the MN recognizes that the MAG 103 does not support multihoming, the MN notifies a local mobility domain that the MAG 103 does not support multihoming if connection with the MAG 103 is not yet established, and notifies the local mobility domain of information on a connection to a local mobility domain other than the MAG 103 (connection with the MAG 102) if the connection with the MAG 103 is already established.

Disclosed is a technique for switching a forwarding address of a packet destined for a mobile node in a local mobility domain when the mobile node has a plurality of interfaces so that the packet will be forwarded to the mobile node. According to the technique, an MN 101 receives network information 40 including a domain ID 402 from a network through two or more IFs 1010 and 1011. Based on the domain ID 402 in the network information received, when determining that the IFs 1010 and 1011 are attached to the same domain, the MN 101 decides to allocate the same address to the IFs 1010 and 1011, and requests MAGs 111 and 112 connected to the IFs 1010 and 1011, respectively, to bind the same address to each of link identifiers of the IFs 1010 and 1011. Based on the request, the MAGs 111 and 112 perform binding to forward, to the MN 101, packets destined to the same address of the MN 101.

Disclosed is a technique that, in a network-based local mobility management method, reduces the load of a network node for managing position information of a mobile terminal and achieves a high scalability with respect to the number of mobile terminals. According to the technique, a LMA (Local Mobility Anchor) (1000) assigns a primary network prefix to each of MAGs (Mobility Access Gateways) (1010, 1020) under the control of the LMA and registers, in a routing table, the correspondence relationship between the position information of each of the MAGs and the primary network prefix assigned to each of the MAGs. In addition, among MNs (MobileNodes) (1030, 1040) connected under the MAGs, for a MN that uses an address including a secondary network prefix, the LMA registers, in a binding cache, the correspondence relationship between the MN and the position information of an MAG to which the MN is connected.

Disclosed is a technique for enabling a mobile terminal, which is capable of using a plurality of communication routes for communication with a correspondent node, to select an appropriate communication route to communicate with the correspondent node. According to the technique, the mobile terminal (UE/MN 313B) requests a predetermined network node (P-GW 317) to detect whether or not the correspondent node (CN 318B) exists in the same domain. The P-GW monitors a packet sent from the CN to the UE/MN and, when detecting the packet, determines whether or not the CN exists in the same domain. In the case of determining that the CN exists in the same domain, the P-GW reports information that the CN exists in the same domain, to the UE/MN. The UE/MN selects an interface used for communicating with the CN, based on the reported determination result.
摘要:
Disclosed is a technique for minimizing the number of prefixes to be allocated to a mobile terminal when the mobile terminal having multiple access technologies moves within a mobility management domain of a local network. According to the technique, management is so performed that prefixes necessary for a mobile terminal (MN 100) to perform communication will be allocated to the MN, and a mobility management domain 110 maintains only the prefixes necessary for the MN to perform communication. For example, when the MN detects a state in which a prefix needs changing (step S120), it determines a state in which network prefixes necessary for the MN are allocated to the MN, and notifies the mobility management domain of prefix preference for achieving this state (step s150). The prefix preference includes a reduce request for unnecessary prefixes, a reuse request on another interface, a recycle request indicative of use at another MN, and the like.
