MOBILITY MANAGEMENT USING ADDRESS POOLS IN MOBILITY LABEL BASED MPLS NETWORKS

摘要

A routing system coupled to a label switching network receives a pool of network addresses allocated to a mobility region in the network, where the pool of network addresses includes a sequence of contiguous network addresses. The routing system stores the pool of network addresses, and allocates a range of mobility labels to the network address pool for use in communicating with mobile nodes in the mobility region.
