Weaknesses of the Foreign Agent solution
Weaknesses
of the
Foreign Agent
solution
:
The
solution
depends on the
availability
of the
Agent Software
on the
foreign network
Fact:
Most routers
do
not
have
Mobile IP support
(You need to
install
a
special
module
in the
IP software
)
Conclusion:
It would be
nicer
if you can use a
more
commonly available
service
to
provide support
for
mobile IP
The next
mobile IP solution
that we study will use
DHCP
