Abstract
This document describes a simple method that allows a mobile node to use a home agent situated inside a protected intranet, while also allowing the mobile to roam between the public internet and the intranet without losing active sessions. Whenever the mobile is outside the intranet, it connects to the intranet using an IPsec tunnel and registers the IPsec-assigned inner tunnel address as its co-located care-of address to the internal home agent. If desired, handover performance while outside the intranet can be enhanced by employing another Mobile IP layer underneath IPsec. The solution does not require any new protocols, only a profile for using existing protocols. Only the mobile node needs to be modified in order to use this profile.
