4.6 Mobile IP Parameters

Mobile IP is used to allow mobile nodes (i.e. terminals) to roam seamlessly between

different TCP/IP subnets (10.16.xxx.xxx -> 10.128.xxx.xxx), through foreign and

home “agents” (9150s), which act as proxies. When the terminal roams away from

its home network, the home agent will take all packets destined for the mobile node,

and send them on to the foreign agent, which relays the packets to the “node” (terminal).
