ABSTRACT:
A method is described for anchoring IP flows in a network. An IP flow is transmitted by a mobile node and received at a access router attached to the mobile node. The IP flow is transferred to an original access router, which maintains a host table associated with the mobile node. And a server that is attached to the original access router may be accessed to service the IP flow.
