  1. used by hosts, routers, gateways to communication network-level information error reporting: unreachable host, network, port, protocol echo request/reply (used by ping) network-layer “above” IP: ICMP msgs carried in IP datagrams ICMP message: type, code plus first 8 bytes of IP datagram causing error ICMP: Internet Control Message Protocol TypeCodedescription 0 0 echo reply (ping) 3 0 dest. network unreachable 3 1 dest host unreachable 3 2 dest protocol unreachable 3 3 dest port unreachable 3 6 dest network unknown 3 7 dest host unknown 4 0 source quench (congestion control - not used) 8 0 echo request (ping) 9 0 route advertisement 10 0 router discovery 11 0 TTL expired 12 0 bad IP header

  2. DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Goal: allow host to dynamically obtain its IP address from network server when it joins network Can renew its lease on address in use Allows reuse of addresses (only hold address while connected an “on” Support for mobile users who want to join network (more shortly) DHCP overview: • host broadcasts “DHCP discover” msg • DHCP server responds with “DHCP offer” msg • host requests IP address: “DHCP request” msg • DHCP server sends address: “DHCP ack” msg

  3. E B A DHCP client-server scenario 223.1.2.1 DHCP 223.1.1.1 server 223.1.1.2 223.1.2.9 223.1.1.4 223.1.2.2 arriving DHCP client needs address in this network 223.1.1.3 223.1.3.27 223.1.3.2 223.1.3.1

  4. DHCP discover src : 0.0.0.0, 68 dest.: 255.255.255.255,67 yiaddr: 0.0.0.0 transaction ID: 654 DHCP client-server scenario arriving client DHCP server: 223.1.2.5 DHCP offer src: 223.1.2.5, 67 dest: 255.255.255.255, 68 yiaddrr: 223.1.2.4 transaction ID: 654 Lifetime: 3600 secs DHCP request src: 0.0.0.0, 68 dest:: 255.255.255.255, 67 yiaddrr: 223.1.2.4 transaction ID: 655 Lifetime: 3600 secs time DHCP ACK src: 223.1.2.5, 67 dest: 255.255.255.255, 68 yiaddrr: 223.1.2.4 transaction ID: 655 Lifetime: 3600 secs

  5. no mobility high mobility What is mobility? • spectrum of mobility, from thenetwork perspective: mobile user, using same access point mobile user, passing through multiple access point while maintaining ongoing connections (like cell phone) mobile user, connecting/ disconnecting from network using DHCP.

  6. Mobility: Vocabulary home network: permanent “home” of mobile (e.g., 128.119.40/24) home agent: entity that will perform mobility functions on behalf of mobile, when mobile is remote wide area network Permanent address: address in home network, can always be used to reach mobile e.g., 128.119.40.186 correspondent

  7. Mobility: more vocabulary visited network: network in which mobile currently resides (e.g., 79.129.13/24) Permanent address: remains constant (e.g., 128.119.40.186) Care-of-address: address in visited network. (e.g., 79,129.13.2) wide area network home agent: entity in visited network that performs mobility functions on behalf of mobile. correspondent: wants to communicate with mobile

  8. How do you contact a mobile friend: • search all phone books? • call her parents? • expect her to let you know where he/she is? I wonder where Alice moved to? Consider friend frequently changing addresses, how do you find her?

  9. Mobility: approaches • Let routing handle it: routers advertise permanent address of mobile-nodes-in-residence via usual routing table exchange. • routing tables indicate where each mobile located • no changes to end-systems • Let end-systems handle it: • indirect routing: communication from correspondent to mobile goes through home agent, then forwarded to remote • direct routing: correspondent gets foreign address of mobile, sends directly to mobile

  10. Mobility: approaches • Let routing handle it: routers advertise permanent address of mobile-nodes-in-residence via usual routing table exchange. • routing tables indicate where each mobile located • no changes to end-systems • let end-systems handle it: • indirect routing: communication from correspondent to mobile goes through home agent, then forwarded to remote • direct routing: correspondent gets foreign address of mobile, sends directly to mobile not scalable to millions of mobiles

  11. mobile contacts foreign agent on entering visited network foreign agent contacts home agent home: “this mobile is resident in my network” 1 2 Mobility: registration visited network home network End result: • Foreign agent knows about mobile • Home agent knows location of mobile wide area network

  12. foreign agent receives packets, forwards to mobile home agent intercepts packets, forwards to foreign agent correspondent addresses packets using home address of mobile mobile replies directly to correspondent 3 2 4 1 Mobility via Indirect Routing visited network home network wide area network

  13. Indirect Routing: comments • Mobile uses two addresses: • permanent address: used by correspondent (hence mobile location is transparent to correspondent) • care-of-address: used by home agent to forward datagrams to mobile • foreign agent functions may be done by mobile itself • triangle routing: correspondent-home-network-mobile • inefficient when correspondent, mobile are in same network

  14. foreign-agent-to-mobile packet packet sent by home agent to foreign agent: a packet within a packet dest: 128.119.40.186 dest: 128.119.40.186 dest: 128.119.40.186 packet sent by correspondent dest: 79.129.13.2 Forwarding datagrams to remote mobile Permanent address: 128.119.40.186 Care-of address: 79.129.13.2

  15. Indirect Routing: moving between networks • suppose mobile user moves to another network • registers with new foreign agent • new foreign agent registers with home agent • home agent update care-of-address for mobile • packets continue to be forwarded to mobile (but with new care-of-address) • Mobility, changing foreign networks transparent: on going connections can be maintained!

  16. foreign agent receives packets, forwards to mobile mobile replies directly to correspondent 4 2 4 1 3 Mobility via Direct Routing correspondent forwards to foreign agent visited network home network wide area network correspondent requests, receives foreign address of mobile

  17. Mobility via Direct Routing: comments • overcome triangle routing problem • non-transparent to correspondent: correspondent must get care-of-address from home agent • What happens if mobile changes networks?

  18. Mobile IP • RFC 3220 • has many features we’ve seen: • home agents, foreign agents, foreign-agent registration, care-of-addresses, encapsulation (packet-within-a-packet) • three components to standard: • agent discovery • registration with home agent • indirect routing of datagrams

  19. Mobile IP: agent discovery • agent advertisement: foreign/home agents advertise service by broadcasting ICMP messages (typefield = 9) H,F bits: home and/or foreign agent R bit: registration required

  20. Mobile IP: registration example
