ABSTRACT:
An active session mobility solution for point-to-point protocol (PPP) in accordance with the present invention provides fast and smooth handoff by reducing tunneling overhead on tunneling mechanisms, such as P-P tunneling from a serving Source (e.g., a PPP termination device) to a new serving Target (e.g., a PPP termination device). In the active session mobility solution of the present invention, PPP session can be migrated even if not all phases have been completed (e.g., LCP, PAP/CHAP completed but not IPCP and CCP). In such cases, the incomplete phases will be negotiated at the PPP of the Target PPP.
