ABSTRACT
The disruptions caused by Network Function Virtualization (NFV) and Software Defined Networking (SDN) introduce severe impacts also on mobility management. In this work, we will show how IP-based mobility management, especially Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6), can be redesigned to fit into the new environment. We will present an evolutionary procedure on how MIPv6 can arrive in the cloud. At the end of the process, the unique architecture of MIPv6 can run on the top of Kubernetes and OpenStack while keeping compatibility with the existing standards. Orchestration is also an environmental change, comes with cloud, where MIPv6 should be aligned with closed-loop orchestration support.

An Evolution of Proxy Mobile IPv6 to the Cloud
MobiWac '21: Proceedings of the 19th ACM International Symposium on Mobility Management and Wireless AccessNetwork Function Virtualization (NFV) and Software Defined Networks (SDN) do not leave any legacy network services untouched. This work will present how Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) can evolve to the cloud. Our approach is to introduce this evolution ...
A cross-layer partner-assisted handoff scheme for hierarchical mobile IPv6 in IEEE 802.16e systems
The design of the seamless handoff is the key issue in the next-generation mobile networks. A new broadband wireless access, called WiMAX, has been specified in the IEEE 802.16e standard document, to provide the high bandwidth and the large coverage ...
