This draft presents a mechanism of establishing a Mobile IP NAT traversal binding in a backwards compatible manner. The NAT traversal is based on using the Mobile IP Home Agent UDP port for encapsulation of data traffic, thus requiring only a single NAT address mapping. The presented method optimizes round trips required to set up the NAT address mapping, which is a critical measure for handover performance.}, }
