As the number of mobile terminals increases, Mobile IP[1] potentially
could make users roam around the world while also keep their
connection to the Internet uninterruptedly. In the mean time, many
organizations are using NAPT[2] (Network Address Port Translator) to
isolate private network from public realms. The integration of NAPT
with Mobile IP, however, introduces technical issues that must be
resolved before they can function together. Although techniques such
as UDP tunneling[3] and reverse tunneling[4] can be utilized to solve
part of the problem, there are still some scenarios which need more
discussion. This document reviews these mechanisms and presents a
guideline for the integration of Mobile IP and NAPT in various
scenarios.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
