Technical Summary
 
   Mobile IPv4 describes how a Mobile Node can perform IP-layer handoffs
   between subnets served by different Foreign Agents.  In certain
   cases, the latency involved in these handoffs can be above the
   threshold required for the support of delay-sensitive or real-time
   services.  The aim of this document is to present two methods to
   achieve low-latency Mobile IP handoffs.  In addition, a combination
   of these two methods is described.  The described techniques allow
   greater support for real-time services on a Mobile IPv4 network by
   minimising the period of time when a Mobile Node is unable to send or
   receive IP packets due to the delay in the Mobile IP Registration
   process.
