Abstract

IETF has specified Mobile IPv4 and Mobile IPv6 in RFC3344 and RFC3775 respectively, but not yet discussed Mobile IPv4/v6 in any published RFC. This paper proposes a solution to Mobile IPv4/v6 problems and gives an example when Home Agent(HA) located in IPv4 network, Correspondent Node(CN)located in IPv6 network, Mobile Node(MN) moving in IPv4/v6 mixed networks. A gateway called Mobile IPv4/v6 translation gateway (MIPv4/v6-TG) is introduced to bridge between IPv4 network and IPv6 network, which is made up of a NAT-PT gateway and a Mobile IP application level gateway (MIP-ALG) built upon the NAT-PT gateway. As a transition scheme, the idea is to make the solution compatible with RFC3344 and RFC3775. In this way, the Mobile IP entities in IPv4 network and the Mobile IP entities in IPv6 network will be transparent to each other.
