Mobile IPv4 describes how a Mobile Node can perform IP-layer handoffs
between subnets served by different Foreign Agents. In certain cases, the
latency involved in these handoffs can be above the threshold required for
the support of delay-sensitive or real-time services. The aim of this
document is to present two methods to achieve low- latency Mobile IP
handoffs. In addition, a combination of these two methods is described. The
described techniques allow greater support for real-time services on a
Mobile IPv4 network by minimising the period of time when a Mobile Node is
unable to send or receive IP packets due to the delay in the Mobile IP
Registration process.
