Mobility solutions at the IP layer have been specified in the IETF
for IPv4 and IPv6. These solutions include host and network based
mobility. All of the mobility protocols enable IP session continuity
by providing the mobile host with an IP address or prefix that
remains constant even as the host moves and attaches to different
access networks and points of attachment. Mobile hosts are anchored
at a gateway via a tunnel and the address/prefix provided to the host
via the gateway remains unchanged across mobility events. All IP
sessions initiated or terminated at a mobile host are anchored via
the gateway. A gateway centric approach raises certain concerns in
terms of cost and efficiency. A mobility model wherein the mobility
functions are distributed is a way of alleviating the concerns of a
gateway centric approach. This document considers ways to alleviate
anchored mobility issues with approaches that could be considered in
a deployment.
