Security Measures in Overcoming Mobile IPv6 Security Issues

With the remarkable progressions in network communications and modern day technology, Mobile IP became very significant as people nowadays have mobile devices with them. If one network goes down, the other connected networks are affected. However, Mobile IP makes this problem practically non-existing. Wherever the user’s location is with his/her mobile device, a unique IP address of its own exists consistent with their device. Mobile IPv6 advanced features compared to MIPv4 are optimized to reduce packet loss. Herein, issues on security threats alleviates in the mobility of wireless networks. This paper focuses on MIPv6 mobility support by proposing enhanced methodologies in providing secure communication.
