| Hi Srini, Usually, MN can't begin L3 mobility management
procedure until it attaches to the target network. So the total handover
latency is the sum of L2 latency and L3 latency, which can be described with the
following equation:        
                T =
L2 latency + L3 latency If L2 message is allowed to carry some IP layer
information, some L3 function (i.e. configuration, conflict detection
and tunnel management etc.) can be performed before the completion of L2
handover, which would reduce the total handover latency obviously. Ideally, it
can be reduced to the bottom limit:        
                T =
max {L2 latency, L3 latency} I don't think it's redundant, restrictive and conflicting IMHO. On
the contrary, it's a feasible way to perform cross-layer
optimization. B.R. Yan

        Hi,Srini,      Yes, current IP
        Fast handover procedures have own messages, they do not work on any the
        link specific information which can be useful in handovers. But since
        the IP Fast handover procedure happened before MN attached target
        network, and IEEE 802.21 purpose is prepare for handover, why we cannot
        use the existing MIH messages to carry some IP information such as IP
        address and so on to finish configuration, conflict detection and tunnel
        management in advance, thus it may reduce some signalings spending(such
        as FBU, HI, HAck, FBack messages in FMIP protocol), and accelerate
        handover completion? I just think it maybe a feasible
        method.    Regards,

 Hi Jing, >   Whereas, for fast handover

          and enhance handover efficiency.   While I do not understand the reasoning behind this, I can say
          that the IP Fast handover procedures are defined with exactly the same
          goals in mind - to reduce the service disruption to under 150ms. The
          IETF WG have carefully identified and worked with everything related
          to IP layer and above -  IP addresses, conflicts,
          configuration, tunnel management and so on in the respective
          protocols. But they do not work on any the link specific (L2)
          information which can be useful in handovers. The best value MIH can
          add is in this area. Anything more, specially IP related
          information, would be redundant, restrictive and conflicting
          at best, IMHO.   Regards,Srini
   
 
 Hi
          Michael,Srinivas,All
 Of cource,
          MIH User may be different mobility management
          protocol.
 For MIP protocol,such as PMIP$B!"(BHMIP
          and NetLMM, it implements only after MN attached the target network,
          so it is outside IEEE 802.21 standard.
 Whereas, for
          fast handover protocol,such as FMIP$B!"(BFast HMIP$B!"(BFast PMIP
          and so on, it implements before MN attached target network, so we can
          use MIH commands to finish the procedure of IP address
          configuration$B!"(Bduplicate address detection and tunnel building
          during handover preparation, thus it will reduce the handover delay
          and enhance handover efficiency.
 Different fast handover protocol may need
          different parameters, whether we may define some latent parameters in
          optional way in MIH messages, thus in different fast handover protocol
          it may select different parameters to carry?

 Anurag, Sanjib,
            All,   Would it be possible to spin these
            contributions to illustrate .21 services interacting with PMIPor MIP
            as well?   Best Regards, Michael 
 Hello Anurag and Sanjib,The intention of the MIH
            handover command is not to replace FMIP signaling, but to complement
            FMIP in aspects that are not present in FMIP. The assumption of MIH
            as a handover control protocol is not valid, but it is provides
            services for facilitating/aiding hanadovers with the assumption that
            there is a different handover control protocol. There is no reason
            to spin the wheels and redo a published and validated protocol again
            in 802.21.

 Srini

 Dear Jing n All ,
 
 As per your concern
            about the DAD. It has already taken care. You are
            just
 considering the predictive situation, BUT we had thought
            predictive and
 reactive both a, b cases.
 (a) able to
            send  fast binding update PAR and information Reached to
            NAR
 and confirmation has received by PAR but not MN
 (b)
            information has  not reach to NAR.
 
 Sanjib query is
            relate to extend the command with some IPaddress
            related

 If every

            our
 assumptions.

 Re:
            [802.21] MIH commands for
            handover
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Hello?Sanjib
 
 I agree your idea using MIH messages to carry some
            MMP(mobility
 management protocol) information during handover
            procedure. But the
 implementation method you proposed may exist
            some problems. From the chart
 we can see MN can generate the NCoA
            from the available prefix info
 obtained from IS Server, then MN
            sends these configured NCoAs to all
 candidate NARs existed in
            each candidate networks to make Duplicate
 Address Detection.
            After duplicity checking, PAR in serving network will
 create the
            tunnel with these candidate NARs for sending the packets.
            So
 these steps such as NCoA configuration?duplicity checking and
            tunnel
 building work with all candidate networks, that will
            increase the spending
 of network resources.
 I
            suggest whether we can do these works after network decision,
            namely
 once the target network is chosen, MN can generate the
            NCoA only for
 target NCoA in target network, and sends this NCoA
            to the target NAR by
 MIH_MN_HO_Commit.request and
            MIH_N2N_HO_Commit.request messages. Target
 NAR will make
            duplicity checking after receiving these messages, and
 return the
            result of DAD to PAR in serving network. Then PAR will create
 the
            tunnel with the target NAR. This will save network resources
            and
 enhance the efficiency of
            handover.
 
 regards,
 Jing
            Liu
