Abstract
End host mobility is not fully supported on the current IP architecture owing to the dual role of the IP address. Therefore, splitting the IP address into a distinct Locator and Identity value, end-host mobility is supported. To hold the relationship between the Locators and Identity values, a mapping infrastructure is needed. One main constraint for the mapping infrastructure is to always maintain an up-to-date binding. This paper shows the performance evaluation of the DNS as a mapping infrastructure for end hosts which uses modified version of GSE/8+8 Protocol. The output of this evaluation is on the latency in sending a binding update (or location update) from the end host to the mapping infrastructure, DNS, under different network traffic conditions. A real IPv6 wireless network has been implemented, in which Bind9 is used as DNS server and the end host sends a location update packet to update the DNS server with the latest Locator value. From the results obtained, it can be seen that relying solely on sending the location update packet is not enough in event of medium or high traffic. Additional mechanisms should be provided in order to support the update process.
