MOBILE IP SUPPORTING QUALITY OF SERVICE FOR DATA SENT FROM MOBILE NODE TO CORRESPONDENT NODE

摘要

There is disclosed a method of configuring a quality of service session between a mobile node, having a home address in a home network and being temporarily attached in a foreign network, and a correspondent node in a correspondent network. The mobile node generates a quality of service session request identifying the source address as the mobile node's home address. The method comprises modifying the quality of service request to identify the source address as the mobile node's address in the foreign network. A mobile IP environment in which such a method is utilised is also disclosed.
