Summary:The CDMA community, under the umbrella of the 3rd Generation
Partnership Project 2, has embarked on a standardization effort for
wireless data based on mobile IP. Important issues addressed include the
link layer interface to a mobile IP foreign agent; how link-layer
mobility interacts with IP-layer mobility; how virtual private network
services will be supported; and how to provide authentication,
authorization, and accounting in a cellular mobile IP environment.
Members of 3GPP2 are also active in the Internet Engineering Task
Force's mobile IP, ROAMOPS, and AAA working groups. Based on our
experiences in this effort, this article gives an overview of the issues
we have encountered in standardizing a mobile IP-based network
architecture in a cellular telephony environment, including current
points of contention, and gives a summary of the current state of the
standards
