      <abstract>
	 <t>   This document propose a scheme to support MIP6 deployment based on
   Wireless LAN by extending HMIPv6.  The HCF (Handover Control
   Function) described in this document should record all APs&#x27;s MAC
   address, backend AR&#x27;s address and network prefix of those APs.  All
   MNs will periodically report all AP&#x27;s MAC address and signal strength
   information to HCF which MN can probe, then HCF should decide whether
   or which AP MN shall associate with and notify MN about the new AP/
   AR&#x27;s information, meanwhile, a bi-cast mechanism shall be applied to
   further improve handover performance by reducing the packet loss
   during handover.  This mechanism can be used in the nationwide
   university Wireless LAN based MIP6 network deployment to support VoIP
   and Video Telephony.
