ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods are provided for a home address subnet assignment for IPv6 bootstrapping. When a mobile-IPv6 router bootstraps, it receives a home address subnet prefix address (HoAp). The mobile-IPv6 router includes the HoAp and the mobile-IPv6 router's care-of address in a binding update, and sends the binding update to a home agent. The home agent associates the HoAp with the mobile-IPv6 router's care-of address. Thus, whenever the home agent receives a packet sent to an address with the same prefix as the HoAp, the home agent will forward the packet to the care-of address of the mobile-IPv6 router.
