Title: Implementation of Fast Handovers for Mobile IPv6 in Walans
Abstract: The basic mobile IPv6 handover delay is so long that it can't meet the requirement of real time services. This paper analyzed the performance of handovers for the mobile IPv6, and proposed a method to implement tunnel based fast handovers in WLANs. In the method, the wireless access point's link layer address was mapped to access router's information through the combination of using link up trigger and fast router advertisement. A mechanism called access router's information cache was also applied to optimize the handover. Experiment results proves that the method can implement fast handovers for mobile IPv6 and achieves perfect performance.
