IPV6 NEIGHBOR DISCOVERY SUPPORT METHOD ON WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM

摘要

A method for supporting IPV6 neighbor discovery on a wireless communication system is provided to allow a base station in a mobile communication system having a wireless access network to manage information of subscriber stations through an identification cache table. A method for supporting IPV6 neighbor discovery on a wireless communication system includes a step(S610) of receiving a neighbor solicitation transmitted from a solicitation subscriber station through a solicitation base station to know a media access control address of the subscriber station. It determines whether the base station performs a service for the subscriber station with an identification cache table(S620) or not. If the base station performs the service for the subscriber station, a neighbor advertisement message is transmitted to the solicitation subscriber station through the solicitation base station. The base station which requires neighbor advertisement message receives the neighbor advertisement message from the base station. The solicitation base station transmits the neighbor advertisement message to the solicitation subscriber station.
