The number of mobile users and their traffic demand is expected to be ever-increasing in future years, and this growth can represent a limitation for deploying current mobility management schemes that are intrinsically centralized, e.g., Mobile IPv6 and Proxy Mobile IPv6. For this reason it has been waved a need for distributed and dynamic mobility management approaches, with the objective of reducing operators’ burdens, evolving to a cheaper and more efficient architecture.

The demo shows a network prototype implementing the network-based distributed mobility management solutions described in the IETF Drafts: 1) draft-bernardos-dmm-pmip-01 and 2) draft-bernardos-dmm-distributed-anchoring-00, inspired by the well known Proxy Mobile IPv6.
