MIPL

· 2 min read

http://www.mobile-ipv6.org/ MIPL Mobile IPv6 for Linux is an implementation of Mobility support in IPv6. Mobility support allows a mobile device to be tracked as it migrates between networks or even ISPs, allowing packets to be forwarded to where the device is currently located.

Download the stuff at these locations:

mipv6-2.0-rc2.tar.gz (Latest USER SPACE part)

mipv6-2.0-rc2-linux-2.6.8.1.patch.gz (Latest KERNEL part)

Remember, you need both of those. First is the user space daemon, and the other is a patch to enable MIPv6 in the kernel. INSTALL and INSTALL.kernel should get you started.

The NEPL NEMO Platform for Linux is a NEMO implementation based on the MIPL 2 architecture.

It aims to be fully RFC 3963 compliant supporting both implicit and explicit mode signalling. Version 0.1 only supports static routing between the HA and MR.

nemo-0.1.tar.gz (NEMO Basic Support Protocol (RFC 3963) and MIPv6 userspace daemon, works with the patched 2.6 kernel) radvd-0.7.2-NEMO.tar.gz (Modified router advertisement daemon needed for proper operation of a NEMO Home Agent)

Modeling Work

Any serious modeling work is difficult. My experience is that it needs a couple of month's full-time work to reach a stage that you can have sufficient understanding for creating useful models for research work.

Rediscovering IPv6: Why Is IPv6 IPsec Not Widely Used? 這篇在談為什麼 IPSec 推不起來

IPsec is still not used for purposes other than connecting to organization network, or making connections among corporate sites. In other words, IPsec is not used for P2P communications, which is one of the main motives for using IPv6.

題目定的非常有趣的 Working Group, 由於 IPSec 跟 IKE 實在是太繁瑣以致於並未被廣泛採用, IETF 抱著 "有點安全性總比完全沒有好" 的宗旨新加入了此 Working Group :D

目前只有一篇 problem statement draft, 不過感覺敢提這個 Topic 真的是個蠻實際的 Group
