Adding references[edit]

Here's a good site if anybody wants to add some references: http://www.eecs.wsu.edu/~smedidi/Mipv6.ppt Kevin chen2003 (talk) 23:29, 5 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

More needed to add[edit]

I do not know more about Mobile IPv6, but i guess, it will still use proxy, but destination site will somehow recive some special kind of packets which will make this site send packets directly to mobile device. (it obviously introduce some state, but sending site already have state, for example TCP socket). Is this right?

Also I think that triangular routing will introduce big problems to statefull firewalling on proxy server, proxy will see only traffic in one dirrection. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.156.82.207 (talk) 20:24, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Everything I've read suggests that ipv6 will avoid triangular routing by *tunneling in both directions*, so I disagree with the sentence "avoids triangular routing and is therefore as efficient as native IPv6". Tunnelling in both directions will not be as efficient as a direct route between the nodes (especially if the intermediate node is on a slow link). Can someone who knows for sure please clarify? Ian!
