On Fri, Aug 17, 2007 at 01:14:15PM +0200, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: ~> This differs from nat because nat involves a single node: what if the node goes down? also, nat has some problems with incoming connections...
yep, no incoming connection for mobile nodes. Is it sacrificable right? (generally you don't need to host a server in a mobile node) if the node goes down: some hacks must be used. In the previous mail, I imagined a situation where you can send packets of a same connection by different IPs. This isn't impossible, but it requires some good hacks on netfilter (f.e. see http://lab.dyne.org/Ntk_IGS) ~> MN -mobile node ~> SN -static node the other advantage to use a NAT/swarm solution is to completely separate the mobile part from the static one, this is relevant because you can't think in terms of maps for mobile nodes (maybe) -- :wq!
