Embodiment
Below, describe with reference to accompanying drawing for embodiment of the present invention.
Fig. 1 is the schematic diagram of the network architecture relevant with embodiment of the present invention 1.
In Fig. 1, the mobile network 1 that expression is connected with home network 20 is connected with internet (underlying network) 8 through gateway 7.The mobile network 1, has: mobile router device MR2, MR3 (also being write as mobile router 2,3) and terminal installation LFN5.The interface of underlying network 8 sides has identical or different physical interfaces in mobile router device MR2, MR3.
As the interface of underlying network 8 sides, for example, can enumerate Ethernet (login trade mark) mode, IEEE802.11 (a, b, e, g etc.) mode, HIPERLAN mode, IMT-2000 mode, PDC mode, GPRS mode, HPS mode etc.In addition, the interface of mobile network's 1 side uses identical interface, for example Ethernet mode, Bluetooth mode, UWB (Ultra Wide Band) mode, IEEE802.11 (a, b, e, g etc.) mode.
In the example of Fig. 1, expression mobile network 1 be connected with home network 20 through mobile router device MR2, and mobile router device MR3 only connects the interface of mobile network's side, does not connect the state of underlying network side interface.In addition, the address of also having expressed the underlying network side interface of mobile router device MR2 is MR2-HoA, and the address of mobile network's side interface is MR3-In, and the address of mobile network's side interface of mobile router device MR3 is MR3-HoA
In addition, by the mobile router device MR2 that home network 20 is connected with mobile network 1, to mobile network's 1 transmission router advertisement message 1010 as shown in FIG. 13A.In addition, in the Option Field 1020 of this router advertisement message 1010, as shown in figure 12, contain the prefix information option 1030 shown in Figure 13 B.Therefore, the default router of terminal installation LFN5 is MR2-In, in addition, is MR2-HoA to the mobile network's 1 of home gateway HGW7 the section of distance next time.
By communication object terminal installation CN11, when the packet of terminal installation LFN5 was mail in transmission, the packet that is sent out arrived home gateway HGW7 according to the routing iinformation in the internet 8.In home gateway HGW7, the packet that mails to mobile network 1 is sent to MR2-HoA.Mobile router device MR2 transmits the packet that mails to terminal installation LFN5 to mobile network 1, and packet is sent to terminal installation LFN5.
On the other hand, as following, carry out to the packet transmission of communication object terminal installation CN11 from terminal installation LFN5.Terminal installation LFN5 is the packet that mobile router device MR2 mails to communication object terminal installation CN11 to the MR2-In as default router.Mobile router device MR2 is when accepting to mail to the packet of communication object terminal installation CN11, whether the destination of decision data bag is the terminal that belongs to home network 20, because communication object terminal CN11 is not the terminal that belongs to home network 20, so to the conduct home gateway HGW7 transmission of distance section next time.Home gateway HGW7, because the destination of the packet that receives is not the packet to network of self home 20, thus transmit to internet 8, and deliver to communication object terminal installation CN11 via internet 8.
Secondly, by moving of mobile network 1,, describe at its example shown in Fig. 2 and Figure 11 for the management method of mobile of change when the tie point of internet 8.
As shown in Figure 2, suppose that mobile network 1 leaves home network 20, moved to the subordinate (S901) of the access router AR9 with physical connection identical with the underlying network side interface of mobile router device MR2.At this moment, mobile router device MR2 receives the router advertisement message (S902) that sends from access router AR9.Generate visit temporary transient Care-of Address MR2-CoA (S903) that uses under router-A R9 by the prefix information that in router advertisement message, comprises.
In addition, Figure 13 A~Figure 10 D is the exemplary plot of router advertisement message 1010 forms, and the advertisement that contains the prefix information option 1030 of Figure 13 B and Figure 13 C at the Option Field 1020 of the router advertisement message 1010 of Figure 13 A is option one 050 at interval.
Next, mobile router device MR2 generates the binding update messages 600 (S904) of storage as illustrative home address MR2-HoA603, Care-of Address MR2-CoA634 among Fig. 6 and Fig. 7 A~Fig. 7 D, and sends (S905) to home agent HA6.Thus, this Care-of Address MR2-HoA as main Care-of Address, is logined among the home agent HA6 on mobile network 1 home network 20.
Home agent HA6, receive binding update messages 600 after, generate the related banding cache 1100 (S906) between clear and definite home address MR2-HoA and the Care-of Address MR2-CoA.Mobile network 1 finishes the transmission preparations (S907) of the mobile network 1 after moving from home network 20.Figure 14 is an exemplary plot of banding cache 1100, related between clear and definite home address 1101, Care-of Address 1102, effective time 1103, sign 1104, serial number 1105 and the habitual information 1106 and with its storage.
And then, mobile router device MR2, be created on not only contain in the Option Field 1020 of router advertisement message 1010 prefix information option 1030, also contain router advertisement message just like the binding message serial number option one 070 shown in Figure 13 D, and mobile network 1 is sent.Be subordinated to the mobile network's 1 who receives the router advertisement message 1010 that contains this binding update messages serial number option one 070 mobile router device, store this serial number.
The packet that mails to terminal installation LFN5 from communication object terminal installation CN11 is sent according to the routing iinformation in the internet 8, arrives home gateway HGW7.In home gateway GHW7, the packet that mails to mobile network 1 transmits to MR2-HoA.
Yet, in home agent HA6, owing to have the banding cache 1100 of MR2-HoA and Care-of Address MR2-CoA,, the MR2-CoA that mails to after the packet encapsulation of terminal installation FLN5 to the Care-of Address of mobile router device MR2 is transmitted so home agent HA6 catches above-mentioned packet.The packet that encapsulated is sent to mobile router device MR2 via access router AR9, removes encapsulation in mobile router device MR2, transmits to terminal installation LFN5.
On the other hand, as following, carry out to the packet transmission of communication object terminal installation CN11 from terminal installation LFN5.Terminal installation LFN5 to as the MR2-In of default router, be the packet that mobile router device MR2 mails to communication object device CN11.Mobile router device MR2 will mail to the packet encapsulation of communication object terminal installation CN11 and transmit to home agent HA6 when accepting to mail to the packet of communication object terminal installation CN11.
The packet that encapsulated is delivered to home agent HA6 via access router AR9, in home agent HA6, remove encapsulation, the result of destination address is mail in inspection, because destination address does not belong to home network 20, so transmit to communication object terminal installation CN11 via internet 8.
Secondly, the management method of mobile when having found the operable access link of mobile router device MR3 finding the operable access link of mobile router device MR2, expression one example describes in Fig. 3 and Figure 15.
As shown in Figure 3, suppose that mobile network 1 leaves home network 20 or accesses network 21, and moved to the subordinate (S1201) of the access router AR10 with physical link identical with the underlying network physical interface of mobile router device MR3.
At this moment, in mobile router device MR2, from receiving the moment of the router advertisement message 1010 that access router AR9 sends at last, outclass the router advertisement that in above-mentioned router advertisement message 1010, comprises time of 1054 is (for example at interval even passed through, advertisement at interval * 3), can't receive under the situation of next router advertisement message 1010, be judged as the connectivity of having lost with access router AR9.
In addition, mobile router device MR3 receives the router advertisement message 1010 (S1202) from access router AR9.Mobile router device MR3 obtains prefix information 1043 from above-mentioned router advertisement message 1010, is created on the temporary transient Care-of Address MR3-CoA (S1203) that uses of access router AR10 subordinate.

In addition, the transmission data that the application handling part 18 of mobile router device MR2 generates in order to send to mobile network 1, upper layer handling part 17 via the processing of abideing by agreements such as socket, TCP or UDP transmits to the L3 handling part 13 that carries out the IP protocol processes.Implement IP and handle, after mobile network's physical interface 14 carries out SDL processing and physical layer protocol processing, send to mobile network 1.
In addition, mobile router device MR2 becomes the reception action of terminal, is that the operation opposite with sending action carried out like that according to following.
The packet that will receive from underlying network 8 carries out after physical layer protocol and SDL handle at underlying network physical interface 12, carry out in the IP protocol processes at L3 handling part 13, MobileIPv6 handling part 15 carries out the additional IP head processing relevant with MobileIP simultaneously.Then carry out the processing of upper layer handling part 17 and transmit to using handling part 18.
The packet that will receive from mobile network 1 carries out carrying out the IP protocol processes at L3 handling part 13 after physical layer protocol and SDL handle at mobile network's physical interface 14.Then carry out the processing of upper layer handling part 17 and transmit to using handling part 18.
In addition, in the present embodiment, mobile router device being narrated as 1 as 2, terminal installation, certainly, also is applicable under the situation that multiple arrangement exists.
As described above in the present embodiment, in having the mobile network of a plurality of mobile router devices, interface in the underlying network side of mobile router device is distributed to as common address in some addresses of a plurality of mobile router devices, use is carried out Binding Update at this Care-of Address and is handled, thus, Yi Bian can or else increase under the situation of load of network, can provide the terminal installation in the mobile network that MobileIPv6 is not installed between multiple accesses network, to move the function that communicates on one side.
In addition, in the present embodiment, as the mobile router device of router action, to the mobile router device that does not have action as the mobile router device that in same mobile network, exists, the serial number that notice is used in Binding Update.When will not have the mobile router device of action to move, upgrade the up-to-date serial number of above-mentioned notice as above-mentioned router apparatus as router apparatus.Carry out Binding Update by using with the mobile router device and the same virtual address of moving as router apparatus, in the mobile network, there are a plurality of mobile router devices, and be used in switching under the situation of the mobile router device that links with underlying network, under the situation of the switching of imperceptible mobile router, home agent can be managed up-to-date mobile message.Thus, even when a plurality of mobile router is set in the mobile network, also can under the situation of the load that does not increase network, deal with mobile.
(execution mode 2)
Figure 17 is an exemplary plot of the structure of the mobile network system relevant with embodiment of the present invention 2.
Figure 17 is the mobile network 1 who links with home network 20, is connected to the exemplary plot of internet (underlying network) 8 through home gateway 7.The mobile network 1, has mobile router device MR2, MR3 and terminal installation LFN5.In mobile router device MR2, MR3, the interface of underlying network 8 sides has identical or different physical interfaces.
As the interface of underlying network 8 sides, for example can enumerate Ethernet (login trade mark) mode, IEEE802.11 (a, b, e, g etc.) mode, HIPERLAN mode, IMT-2000 mode, PDC mode, GPRS mode, HPS mode etc.In addition, the interface of mobile network's 1 side uses identical interface, for example Ethernet mode, Bluetooth mode, UWB (Ultra Wide Band) mode, IEEE802.11 (a, b, e, g etc.) mode.
Mobile router device MR2, MR3, virtual redundancy router protocol in the interface of starting mobile network 1 side, specifically, VRRP (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol) for example.
In the example of Figure 17, the relative importance value of supposing the active router standby router relation of decision mobile router device MR2 is 100, supposes that the relative importance value of mobile router device MR3 is 80, the active router standby router relation that follows the physical interface of mobile network's 1 side at the physical interface of backbone physics 8 sides, the router that becomes active router carry out with backbone physics and with mobile network's binding.At this, mobile router device MR2 comes work as active router, and mobile router device MR3 comes work as standby router, represents with solid line and dotted line in Figure 17.
In the physical interface of mobile network's 1 side, with VRIP (MRi) as virtual router ip address, home network 20 sides with VRIP (MRo) as virtual router ip address.VRIP (MRi), VRIP (MRo) are according to the IPv6 address format, and for example VRIP (MRi) is 3ffe:0501::5F00:0202:2cff:fe00:000A, and VRIP (MRo) is 3ffe:0501::0100:0202:2cff:fe00:0001.Therefore, the default gateway of terminal installation LFN5 is VRIP (MRi), to the mobile network's 1 of home gateway HGW7 next distance section VRIP (MRo).
By communication object terminal installation CN11, when the packet of terminal installation LFN5 was mail in transmission, the packet of transmission arrived home gateway HGW7 according to the routing iinformation in the internet 8.In home gateway HGW7, mail to mobile network 1 packet to VRIP (MRo).As the mobile router device MR2 of active router, transmit the packet that mails to terminal installation LFN5 to mobile network 1, packet is sent to terminal installation LFN5.
On the other hand, carry out like that by following to the packet transmission of communication object terminal installation CN11 from terminal installation LFN5.Terminal installation LFN5 is to the packet that mails to communication terminal CN11 as the VRIP (MRi) of default router.Mobile router device MR2 as active router, when accepting to mail to the packet of communication object terminal installation CN11, whether the destination address of judgment data bag is the terminal that belongs to home network 20, because communication terminal CN11 is not the terminal that belongs to home network 20, so to the conduct home gateway HGW7 transmission of distance section next time.Home gateway HGW7 because the destination address of the packet that receives is not the packet to the home network 20 of self, so transmit to internet 8, sends to communication object terminal installation CN11 via internet 8.
Can not receive that router advertisement message 1010, mobile router device MR2 from the access router that is connected with underlying network can not find the access link that is connected with underlying network and packet transmits in impossible occasion etc. at occasion that mobile router device MR2 breaks down or mobile router device MR2, become the transmission that active router carries out packet as the mobile router device MR3 of standby router.At this moment, because interface IP address do not become VRIP (MRo), VRIP (MRi), so terminal installation LFN5 there is no need to belong in home gateway HGW7 and carries out any new processing.
Secondly, to because the moving of mobile network 1, and the management method of mobile of change when the tie point of internet 8, its example of expression and describing in Figure 18 and Figure 25.
As shown in figure 18, suppose that mobile network 1 leaves home network 20, move to the subordinate (S2101) of the access router AR9 with physical link identical with the underlying network side interface of mobile router device MR2.
At this moment, mobile router device MR2, reception sends router advertisement message (S2102) from access router AR9, by the prefix information that contains in router advertisement message, is created under the access router AR9 the temporary transient Care-of Address CoA-9 (MR) that uses (S2103).As an example of generation method, the upper bit (prefix long) that the address arranged is the value of the prefix that obtains, and the next bit is the method for the identical bit of the corresponding bit of virtual address.
In addition, Figure 12 and Figure 13 A~Figure 13 D are the exemplary plot of the form of router advertisement message 1010, contain the prefix information option of representing with Figure 12 and Figure 13 B 1030 in router advertisement message 1010, and the advertisement of representing with Figure 12 and Figure 13 C option one 050 at interval.In addition, in the present embodiment, in router advertisement message 1010, there is no need to comprise the binding message serial number option one of representing with Figure 12 and Figure 13 D 070.Contain prefix long 1033 and prefix information 1043 at prefix information option 1030 internal memories.
For example, prefix in the prefix information option 1030 long 1033 is 64 bits, when prefix information 1043 was 3ffe:0501::1f00:3110:5aff:fe00:4326, the Care-of Address CoA-9 that above-mentioned VRIP (MRo) is generated was 3ffe:0501::1f00:0202:2cff:fe00:0001.
In addition, as an example of generation method, expression the send as an envoy to the next bit and the method for the corresponding bit same bits of virtual address of the address that generates, but about this next bit partly also can be by using other mode, for example use random number etc. to generate.
Mobile router device MR2, owing to come work as active router, so, afterwards, generate storage shown in Figure 22 and Figure 23 A~Figure 23 D home address VRIP (MRo) 1903 and the binding update messages 1900 (S2104) of Care-of Address CoA-9 (MR) 1934, and send (S2105), like this to home agent HA6, as main Care-of Address, the home agent HA6 on mobile network 1 home network 20 logins with this Care-of Address CoA-9 (MR).
Home agent HA6, after receiving binding update messages 1900, generate the related banding cache 2200 (S2106) between clear and definite home address VRIP (MRo) and the Care-of Address CoA-9 (MR), the transmission preparations of the mobile network 1 after mobile network 1 moves from home network 20 finish (S2107).Figure 26 is an exemplary plot of banding cache 2200, related between clear and definite home address 2201, Care-of Address 2202, valid period 2203, sign 22104, serial number 2205 and the habitual information 2206 and with its storage.
The packet that mails to terminal installation LFN5 from communication object terminal installation CN11 sends according to the routing iinformation in the internet 8, arrives home gateway HGW7.In home gateway GHW7, the packet that mails to mobile network 1 transmits to VRIP (MRo).Yet, in home agent HA6, owing to preserve the banding cache 2200 of VRIP (MRo) and Care-of Address CoA-9 (MR), so home agent HA6 catches above-mentioned packet, will mail to the packet encapsulation of terminal installation FLN5 and transmit to the Care-of Address CoA-9 of mobile router device MR2 (MR).The packet that encapsulated is sent to mobile router device MR2 via access router AR9, removes encapsulation in mobile router device MR2, transmits to terminal installation LFN5.
Secondly, under the situation that can not find the operable access link of mobile router device MR2, the management method of mobile when having found the operable access link of mobile router device MR3 illustrates with Figure 19 and exemplary plot shown in Figure 27.
In mobile router device MR2, MR3, relative importance value is changed according to connectivity with underlying network 8.In the time can being connected with underlying network, making relative importance value is general value, but die down at received electric field strength, make it to receive regular router advertisement message etc., along with connectivity worsens, the value corresponding with the network bandwidth reduces, and when can not get connectivity fully, relative importance value then is 0.At this moment, when mobile router device MR3 can obtain connectivity, mobile router device MR3 became higher than mobile router device MR2 relative importance value, and mobile router device MR3 just becomes active router.
As shown in figure 19, suppose that mobile network 1 leaves accesses network 21, move to the subordinate (S2301) of the access router AR10 with physical link identical with the underlying network physical interface of mobile router device MR3.At this moment, in mobile router device MR2, with the connectivity variation of underlying network 8, can not receive router advertisement message 1010 (S2310), with the router advertisement message 1010 (S2302) of mobile router device MR3 reception from access router AR10 from access router AR9.
Mobile router device MR3 obtains prefix information 1043 from above-mentioned router advertisement message 1010, is created under the access router AR10 the temporary transient Care-of Address CoA-10 (MR) that uses (S2303).For example, prefix in the prefix information option 1030 that contains in the router advertisement message 1010 that receives in S2302 long 1033 is 64 bits, when prefix information 1043 was 3ffe:0501::2f00:3110:5aff:fe00:4326, the Care-of Address CoA-10 that above-mentioned VRIP (MRo) is generated was 3ffe:0501::2f00:0202:2cff:fe00:0001.In mobile router device MR2, MR3, according to connectivity relative importance value is changed as described above with underlying network.When the worthwhile mobile router device MR3 of this relative importance value uprised, mobile router device MR3 just became active router (S2304).
Mobile router device MR3, owing to come work as active router, so, afterwards, generate storage shown in Figure 22 and Figure 23 A home address VRIP (MRo) 1903 and the binding update messages 1900 (S2305) of Care-of Address CoA-10 (MR) 1934, and send (S2306), like this to home agent HA6, as main Care-of Address, the home agent HA6 on the home link of mobile router device MR3 logins with this Care-of Address CoA-10 (MR).
Behind the binding update messages 1900 of home agent HA6 reception from mobile router device MR3, the banding cache of home address VRIP (MRo) is updated to related banding cache 2400 (S2307) between clear and definite home agent VRIP (MRo) and the Care-of Address CoA-10 (MR), and the transmission preparations (S2308) when finishing in mobile network 1, to replace the mobile router device that is used for being connected with underlying network 8.
Below, from communication object terminal installation CN11 when terminal installation LFN5 sends packet, be replaced as the subordinate's who is in access router AR10 situation by the situation that mobile network 1 is in the subordinate of access router AR9, be about to Care-of Address CoA-9 (MR) and be replaced as CoA-10 (MR), carry out action same as described above, so omit explanation.
Secondly, Figure 20 represents the configuration example of mobile router device MR2, MR3, and describes.
Figure 20 is the schematic diagram of the structure example of mobile router device MR2, MR3, handles 23 by underlying network physical interface 12, L3 handling part 13, mobile network's physical interface 14, MobileIPv6 handling part 15, virtual router handling part 16 and mobile management and constitutes.
Underlying network physical interface 12 carries out following processing: the processing of carrying out the physical layer process of the packet received from underlying network 8 side joints and data link layer deals and delivering to L3 handling part 13; In order to send, carry out to the packet that receives from L3 handling part 13 processing of data link layer deals and physical layer process to underlying network 8; Monitor internuncial link quality of expression and underlying network 8, and deliver the processing of link information to the virtual router handling part.
Mobile network's physical interface 14 carries out following processing: the processing of carrying out the physical layer process of the packet received from mobile network's 1 side joint and data link layer deals and delivering to L3 handling part 13; In order to send, to carrying out the processing of data link layer deals and physical layer process the packet that receives from L3 handling part 13 to mobile network 1.
L3 handling part 13, and backbone physics physical interface 12 between and and mobile network's physical interface 14 between packet to joining, carry out network layer handles.In addition, in L3 handling part 13, the occasion of handling at packet innate need of the economy MobileIPv6 is carried out the handing-over with MobileIPv6 handling part 15, in addition, carries out handing-over with virtual router handling part 16 in the occasion that needs Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol to handle.And then, accept expression now whether as the information of active router work from virtual router handling part 16, carry out necessary processing under the situation as active router.
