Hi Srini,
As we all know, the main idea of FMIP is to configure the
nCoA MN over the old link before handover, so that the MN can use this new CoA
when it attaches to the new AR, which would reduce part of L3 latency. Yet
the MN still can't send FNA message to NAR until it establishes L3 connection.
Because IETF focuses on Layer 3, what it do can't beyond the scope of layer 3.
FMIP does help to reduce some L3 latency. But it doesn't exclude other
method to perform handover optimization.
If we think of carrying some IP layer information in L2
(L2.5) message, L3 mobility management procedure and L2 mobility management
procedure could be carried out concurrently, which would reduce total latency
obviously. Actually, in current 802.21, there are some MIH messages which
contain IP layer information.

Hi Yan,
Please go through draft-ietf-mip4-fmipv4-06.txt or RFC 4068 on how the procedure
works. New CoA and New AR/FA info can be provided over the serving link
(old) in ProxyRtrAdv before L2 connection has to be established on new
link. If you want to do the same thing again in MIH, please explain
why.
Regards,
Srini
Hi Srini,
Usually, MN can't begin L3 mobility
management procedure until it attaches to the target
network.
So the total handover latency is
the sum of L2 latency and L3 latency, which can be described with the
following equation:
T = L2 latency + L3 latency
If L2 message is allowed to carry some
IP layer information, some L3 function (i.e. configuration,
conflict detection and tunnel management etc.) can be performed before
the completion of L2 handover, which would reduce the total handover
latency obviously. Ideally, it can be reduced to the bottom limit:
T = max {L2 latency, L3 latency}
I don't think it's
redundant, restrictive and conflicting IMHO. On the
contrary, it's a feasible way to perform cross-layer
optimization.

Hi,Srini,
Yes,
current IP Fast handover procedures have own messages, they do
not work on any the link specific information which can be
useful in handovers. But since the IP Fast handover procedure
happened before MN attached target network, and IEEE 802.21
purpose is prepare for handover, why we cannot use the existing
MIH messages to carry some IP information such as IP address and
so on to finish configuration, conflict detection and tunnel
management in advance, thus it may reduce some signalings
spending(such as FBU, HI, HAck, FBack messages in FMIP
protocol), and accelerate handover completion? I just think
it maybe a feasible method.
Regards,
Jing

MIH commands for handover
Hi Jing,

While I do not understand the reasoning
behind this, I can say that the IP Fast handover procedures
are defined with exactly the same goals in mind - to reduce
the service disruption to under 150ms. The IETF WG have
carefully identified and worked with everything related to IP
layer and above - IP addresses, conflicts,
configuration, tunnel management and so on in the respective
protocols. But they do not work on any the link specific (L2)
information which can be useful in handovers. The best value
MIH can add is in this area. Anything more, specially IP
related information, would be redundant,
restrictive and conflicting at best,
IMHO.

Hi
Michael,Srinivas,All Of
cource, MIH User may be different mobility management
protocol. For MIP protocol,such as
PMIP$B!"(BHMIP and NetLMM, it implements only after MN
attached the target network, so it is outside IEEE 802.21
standard. Whereas, for fast handover
protocol,such as FMIP$B!"(BFast HMIP$B!"(BFast PMIP and so
on, it implements before MN attached target network, so we can
use MIH commands to finish the procedure of IP address
configuration$B!"(Bduplicate address detection and tunnel
building during handover preparation, thus it will reduce the
handover delay and enhance handover efficiency. Different
fast handover protocol may need different parameters, whether
we may define some latent parameters in optional way in MIH
messages, thus in different fast handover protocol it may
select different parameters to carry?

Anurag, Sanjib,
All,
Would it be possible to spin
these contributions to illustrate .21 services interacting
with PMIPor MIP as well?
Best
Regards,
Michael
Hello Anurag and Sanjib, The intention of
the MIH handover command is not to replace FMIP signaling,
but to complement FMIP in aspects that are not present in
FMIP. The assumption of MIH as a handover control protocol
is not valid, but it is provides services for
facilitating/aiding hanadovers with the assumption that
there is a different handover control protocol. There is no
reason to spin the wheels and redo a published and validated
protocol again in
802.21.

Dear Jing n All ,
As per
your concern about the DAD. It has already taken care. You
are just considering the predictive situation, BUT we had
thought predictive and reactive both a, b cases. (a)
able to send fast binding update PAR and information
Reached to NAR and confirmation has received by PAR but
not MN (b) information has not reach to
NAR.
Sanjib query is relate to extend the command
with some IPaddress
related TLV.
MIH_MN_HO_Candidate_Query.request
( DestinationIdentifier, CurrentLinkIdentifier, CandidateLinkList, QueryResourceList, CandidatePoAList, CandidateNwAddrList,
/*Access router?s addresses or a single address of
NAR*/ MN_NCoAList,
/*List of NCoA as per Target n/w prefix or a single
NCoA*/ ) MIH_MN_HO_Complete.request
(
DestinationIdentifier, LinkIdentifier, HandoverStatus, PreviousARAddress
/*PAR?s IP Address*/ PreviousCoA NewCoA )
If
every body is ok with such changes, we will go ahead with
our assumptions.

[802.21] MIH commands for
handover
Hello?Sanjib
I agree your idea using MIH messages to carry some
MMP(mobility management protocol) information during
handover procedure. But the implementation method you
proposed may exist some problems. From the chart we can
see MN can generate the NCoA from the available prefix
info obtained from IS Server, then MN sends these
configured NCoAs to all candidate NARs existed in each
candidate networks to make Duplicate Address Detection.
After duplicity checking, PAR in serving network
will create the tunnel with these candidate NARs for
sending the packets. So these steps such as NCoA
configuration?duplicity checking and tunnel building work
with all candidate networks, that will increase the
spending of network resources. I suggest
whether we can do these works after network decision,
namely once the target network is chosen, MN can generate
the NCoA only for target NCoA in target network, and
sends this NCoA to the target NAR
by MIH_MN_HO_Commit.request and MIH_N2N_HO_Commit.request
messages. Target NAR will make duplicity checking after
receiving these messages, and return the result of DAD to
PAR in serving network. Then PAR will create the tunnel
with the target NAR. This will save network resources
and enhance the efficiency of
handover.

Jing
