Dear colleague.
 
I think that all messages with mipl should be goes via the tunnel interface of mobile node when the mobile node exists in foreign network. So, I recommand that you should check the packets which pass via the tunnel interface when the mobile node communicates with another in foreign network ( e.g., tcpdump or tethereal).
 
Please, check this and then inform me.
 
Cheers.

Hi

My test-bed configuration is as follows:

Home subnet prefix- 2001:5c0:8d03:1::/64
Foreign subnet prefix- 2001:5c0:8d03:2::/64
Home Agent address- 2001:5c0:8d03:1::1/64
Mobile Node: Home address- 2001:5c0:8d03:1::99/64,
                Care-of address- 2001:5c0:8d03:2:211:20ff:fe48:246/64

The MN has 1 wireless interface, eth0. When the MN is in the foreign
subnet in must have 2 addresses, the home address so that it can
register with the HA, and care-of address so it can communicate.
However, when I try to ping6 the HA, the MN seems to use its home
address in the foreign subnet because the HA address has the same prefix
- this obviously doesn't work. If I use "ping6 -I
2001:5c0:8d03:2:211:20ff:fe48:246 2001:5c0:8d03:1::1" it works fine,
since the MN uses the correct (care-of) address in the foreign subnet.

My problem is that when running MIPL I don't know how to specify that it
should use the care-of address (not the home address) in the foreign
subnet. Therefore, MIPL is unable to send a binding update after a
handover to the foreign network.

Is my configuration correct? If it is, have I got something else wrong?
Any solutions, comments or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Regards
Madhush
