MIH commands for handover
 
 
 Hi Srini, As we all know, the main idea of FMIP is to configure the 
nCoA MN over the old link before handover, so that the MN can use this new CoA 
when it attaches to the new AR, which would reduce part of L3 latency. Yet 
the MN still can't send FNA message to NAR until it establishes L3 connection. 
Because IETF focuses on Layer 3, what it do can't beyond the scope of layer 3. 
FMIP does help to reduce some L3 latency. But it doesn't exclude other 
method to perform handover optimization. If we think of carrying some IP layer information in L2 
(L2.5) message, L3 mobility management procedure and L2 mobility management 
procedure could be carried out concurrently, which would reduce total latency 
obviously. Actually, in current 802.21, there are some MIH messages which 
contain IP layer information. B.R. Yan

        Hi Yan, Please go through draft-ietf-mip4-fmipv4-06.txt or RFC 4068 on how the procedure 
        works. New CoA and New AR/FA info can be provided over the serving link 
        (old) in ProxyRtrAdv before L2 connection has to be established on new 
        link. If you want to do the same thing again in MIH, please explain 
        why.   Regards, Srini 
 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

                  handover delay 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、HMIP 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、Fast HMIP、Fast 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、duplicate 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

 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.

 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.

                    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

 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.

 Jing
