Abstract

The next generation networks must support mobility for ubiquitous communication between any two nodes irrespective of their locations. Mobile IP was the first protocol to support mobility. The process of registration in Mobile IP protocol requires large number of location updates, excessive signaling traffic and service delay. This problem is solved by Hierarchical Mobile IP (HMIP) using the concept of hierarchy of Foreign Agent (FA) and the Gateway Foreign Agent (GFA), Mobility Anchor Point (MAP) to localize the registration information. The performance depends upon the selection of GFA or MAP and some key parameters. This chapter discusses several HMIP based mobility management schemes with a comparative analysis of those protocols and proposes an efficient mobility management scheme.
