Mobile IP

Mobile IP is the key protocol to enable mobile computing and networking, which brings together two of the world's most powerful technologies, the Internet and mobile communication. In Mobile IP, two IP addresses are provided for each computer: home IP address which is fixed and care-of IP address which is changing as the computer moves. When the mobile moves to a new location, it must send its new address to an agent at home so that the agent can tunnel all communications to its new address timely.
