Distance Based Mobility Anchor Point Selection Scheme with Dynamic Load Control in Hierarchical Mobile IPV6

摘要

Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6) was introduced to support mobility management in the next generation Internet Protocol (IPv6). The new concept of HMIPv6 is the usage of Mobility Anchor Point (MAP) located at any level routers in a hierarchical network to support Localize Mobility Management (LMM) and seamless handover. Therefore, the furthest MAP selection in this protocol causes the overloaded MAP and increase frequent binding update as the network extends. To solve this issue, present study proposed an enhanced MAP selection scheme that combines the distance MAP selection scheme and dynamic load control mechanism (DMS-DLC). The proposed scheme has been validated through the performance evaluation using computer simulations. By the experimental results showed that the proposed scheme works efficiently and also supports the best distribution of MAP?s load.
