SYSTEMS AND METHODOLOGIES ARE DESCRIBED THAT FACILITATE MOBILE IP HOME AGENT (312, 412,512, 632) DISCOVERY IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM. DISCOVERY OF A HOME AGENT (312, 412, 512, 632) FOR MOBILE IP CAN BE CONDUCTED AS DESCRIBED HEREIN FOR A MOBILE TERMINAL LOCATED ON A NETWORK WHEREIN MOVEMENT OF THE TERMINAL IS MANAGED BY A NETWORK-BASED MOBILITY PROTOCOL. FOR EXAMPLE, VARIOUS ASPECTS DESCRIBED HEREIN CAN BE UTILIZED FOR DISCOVERY OF A HOME AGENT (312, 412, 512, 632) LOCATED IN A 3GPP NETWORK FROM 3GPP AND/OR NON-3GPP ACCESS. FURTHER, VARIOUS ASPECTS DESCRIBED HEREIN CAN BE UTILIZED TO DISCOVER A GATEWAY ACTING AS MOBILITY ANCHOR FOR A NETWORK MOBILITY PROTOCOL UTILIZED BY THE NETWORK. AS ADDITIONALLY DESCRIBED HEREIN, HOME AGENT (312, 412, 512, 632) DISCOVERY CAN BE CONDUCTED IN CONNECTION WITH DOMAIN NAME SYSTEM (DNS) QUERY FORMATION AND COMMUNICATION, NETWORK ATTACH AND/OR RE-ATTACH PROCEDURES, NEIGHBOR DISCOVERY SIGNALING AND/OR OTHER PROCEDURES. |
