Re: [Mipshop] FMIPv6 Reactive Handover

MessageHi Vidya,

Actually, that is where I was going with this. It seems like HI/HAck is not really a MUST for reactive handover. The FBU from the MN will be authenticated by the PAR. As long as the NAR knows that the FBAck was successful, isn't that all that is needed for tunnel state creation/enablement? 

--> As per my understanding, FBack is sent to MN's NCoA (sec 6.3.2). But in the figure, it is showing to NAR. 

Thanks & Regards,
Subba Reddy

  Again, CT is a different story - so, I'm not referring to that. 

  I think the text can be made clearer in the protocol description to alleviate ambiguity. But, regardless, why is there a need to mandate these messages for reactive mode? 

  I can see the need for a message exchange with the AH between the ARs - but, seems to me like the FBU/FBAck can be extended to carry that - no? 

  Vidya

    Hi Vidya,
    I made the same question through DNA WG recently regarding FMIP-DNA I-D.

    You can find the previous discussion through the attached message.

    I am still questioning why HI/HAck for the access control is required after MN has already attached to NAR in the reactive case.
