ABSTRACT:
To dynamically assign a home agent to a mobile node, a foreign server (e.g., foreign Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting or AAA server) in the visited network sends a first request to a home server (e.g., a home AAA server) to check local policy regarding assigning the home agent in the visited network. The home server responds with an answer. In response to the answer the foreign server sends a home agent request to a node in the visited network to indicate that the node is to be assigned the home agent.
