Mobile IP
• An Internet Protocol address (IP address) is a
numerical label assigned to each device
connected to a computer network that uses
the Internet Protocol for comm.
– location addressing.
Mobile IP
• Mobile IP is designed to allow mobile device users to
move from one network to another while maintaining
a permanent IP address.
• One or more routers on a n/w will implement the roles of both home
and foreign agents.

Move Detection
• Mobile node may move from one network to another
due to some handoff mechanism without IP level
being aware of.
• Algorithms to detect move:
– Use of lifetime field – mobile node uses lifetime field as a
timer for agent advertisements.
– Use of network prefix – mobile node checks if any newly
received agent advertisement messages are on the same
network as the node's current care-of address.
Co-Located Addresses
• If mobile node moves to a network that has no foreign
agents, or all foreign agents are busy, it can act as its own
foreign agent.
• Mobile agent uses co-located care-of address:
– IP address obtained by mobile node associated with mobile node's
current network interface.
