Transport layer mobility management is presented in addition to Mobile IP
for providing seamless mobility in the Internet. By use of SCTP (Stream
Control Transmission Protocol) and some of its currently proposed
extensions a seamless handover can be fully accomplished in the mobile
client without any provisions in the network, only assisted by functions
embedded in Mobile SCTP enabled servers. Client mobility management based
on Mobile SCTP seems not to require any new protocol development. It is a
particular application of SCTP eventually solving the requirements of
transport layer mobility in the Internet.
