摘要：Many consumers have moved from stationary personal computers to cellular mobile devices. These mobile devices permit change of location while staying connected to the network. To sustain stable communication with the receiver, Mobile Internet Protocol (Mobile IP) was developed. Mobile IP is intended to afford absolutely automated and non interactive reconfiguration at any point. Mobile IP is considered to be a routing protocol thus solving the primary problem of routing IP packets to mobile nodes, which is a first step in providing mobility on the internet. Mobile IP is a secure, robust, and medium-independent protocol whose scaling properties make it applicable throughout the entire Internet. Mobile IP has two versions, Mobile IPv4 and Mobile IPv6.This paper analysis the current status of Mobile IPv4 which is on the verge of exhaustion and announces the urgent need to upgrade IP layer to Mobile IPv6.
