A route switching method, when a mobile node is switching between access routers, the method comprises: the second access router sending a context transfer message to the third access router, the third access router updating a Cache for Destination Terminal and a Cache for Source Terminal in a cache of the third access router according to the context transfer message; the second access router updating its cache according to the context transfer message, and updating a Cache for Destination Terminal in a cache of a first access router. Several route switching methods and route switching systems are also involved. Based on the Context Transfer Protocol, it enables the access router to transfer the address information of the mobile node associated with a session connection by the context transfer message directly during the switching, without the process in which the new access router inquires the routing manager, thereby reducing the delay caused by inquiring the routing manager, and thus decreasing the possibility of message lost.
