....changes. Even if the IP address of a mobile host s network interface changes when it moves from one network to another, the mobile host should be able to continue corresponding with other machines in the Internet. Most mobile IP protocols [Bla94] Gup96] Hag93] Ioa93] Myl93] Per94] Per96a] [Tas94] [Ter94] address this problem by allowing a mobile host to use its home network IP address no matter where it currently resides. Of these protocols, the protocol specified by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) Per96a] has become the most popular. It is simple, compatible with existing ....

....to send packets addressed to a mobile host without knowing its current location and to be able to set up durable connections. These are important facilities, but they should not be provided at the expense of the ability to operate with the efficiency of a normal Internet host. Some researchers [Tas94] have proposed a different approach to the mobility problem, by assigning a new unique permanent identifier to every host on the Internet. They propose rewriting transport protocols like TCP to identify connection endpoints using this new identifier instead of the location dependent IP address. ....
