Abstract

The wireless LAN environment using Mobile IP is constructed and managed to be connected with Ethernet based wired networks. However, there have been many problems with wireless networks using Mobile IP. Some important facts on network performance have not been considered when introducing wireless LAN by Mobile IP to wired networks. In this paper, we suggest schemes which can solve problems on Handover latency caused by the asymmetrical connectivity of the Access Router at applying the HMIPv6 and on binding updates due to the MN frequent movement. Our proposed schemes can reduce network latency by using the HMIPv6 architecture with a virtual router layer, and reduce communication overhead by interchanging information of the MN movement between routers. Our schemes are expected to assist in constructing a more real and effective wireless LAN environment based on the HMIPv6 and FMIP.

Mobile IP를 이용한 무선 네트워크 환경은 이더넷 기반의 유선 네트워크와의 연동을 전제로 하여 구축되고 운용된다. 그러나 그동안 Mobile IP와 연동되는 유선네트워크의 대부분은 무선 네트워크의 도입 시 성능에 영향을 주는 중요한 사항들을 고려하지 않고 구축함으로써 운용상 많은 문제점을 가지고 있었다. 본 논문에서는 실제 운용되고 있는 유선 네트워크에 Mobile IP 기반의 무선 네트워크를 구축할 경우 Access Router의 비대칭 연결구조에 의해 발생되는 Hierarchical Mobile IPv6(HMIPv6)의 적용상의 문제점과 이동노드들의 잦은 이동으로 인한 Binding Update 등에 의한 핸드오버 지연시간 문제를 효율적으로 해결할 수 있는 방안을 제시한다. Access Router의 계층적 불일치에서 발생하는 네트워크 지연시간을 가상 라우터 계층을 도입한 HMIPv6 구조를 사용하여 최소화하고, 이동노드의 잦은 이동에 따른 빈번한 CoA등록으로 발생하는 통신오버헤드를 라우터 간 이동정보를 사전에 교환함으로써 줄인다. 본 논문에서 제안한 기법은 HMIPv6와 Fast Handover를 기반으로 하는 현실적이고 효과적인 무선랜 환경의 구축에 기여할 것으로 기대한다.
