This draft describes a proposed Dynamic Inter Home Agent solution to
provide redundancy and load balancing of Home Agents. The proposed solution
recommends additional communication between home agents that may be located
far apart in terms of network topology but still belonging to or are
trusted by the same administrative domains (service providers). While the
mobile node is roaming away from its home network, intervening home agents
in the path of the bidirectional tunnel between the mobile node and its
registered home agent may detect its presence. The intervening home agents
that are affiliated to the current home agent of the mobile node then
proceed to update it of their availability to serve as home agent for the
mobile node.
