ABSTRACT:
A system, a method and a Mobile Node (MN) for enabling a handover of the MN from a current serving access router (PAR) to a next serving access router (NAR) in a data communications network. At least one tunnel is present between the PAR and the NAR to enable data exchange therebetween. The MN has a first address valid under the PAR and is capable of forming a second address valid under the NAR prior to completion of the handover. The MN sends a handover request to the PAR and proceeds with a connection to the NAR without discarding its first address. The MN then completes the handover towards the NAR and receives traffic sent on the first address from the NAR.
