Managing Per-MN home network prefixes is likely to increase the processing load at the HA. Based on the idea that DHCPv6 servers can manage prefixes, we propose a new technique in which HA offloads delegation and release tasks of the prefixes to the DHCPv6 server. HA requests a prefix for an incoming mobile station to the DHCPv6 server. Based on this prefix, the mobile node can create a home address. When the mobile node leaves the network, the prefix is returned to the DHCPv6 server.}, }
