Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) S. Gundavelli, Ed. Request for Comments: 6757 Cisco Category: Standards Track J. Korhonen, Ed. ISSN: 2070-1721 Nokia Siemens Networks M. Grayson K. Leung R. Pazhyannur Cisco October 2012 Access Network Identifier (ANI) Option for Proxy Mobile IPv6 Abstract The local mobility anchor in a Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) domain is able to provide access-network- and access-operator-specific handling or policing of the mobile node traffic using information about the access network to which the mobile node is attached. This specification defines a mechanism and a related mobility option for carrying the access network identifier and the access operator identification information from the mobile access gateway to the local mobility anchor over Proxy Mobile IPv6.

Standards Track [Page 2] RFC 6757 Access Network Identifier Option October 2012 1. Introduction Proxy Mobile IPv6 [RFC5213] can be used for supporting network-based mobility management in various types of network deployments. Network architectures such as service provider Wi-Fi access aggregation or Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) integrated with mobile packet core are examples where Proxy Mobile IPv6 is a component of the overall architecture. Some of these architectures require the ability of the local mobility anchor (LMA) [RFC5213] to provide differentiated services and policing of traffic to the mobile nodes based on the access network to which they are attached. Policy systems in mobility architectures such as the Policy and Charging Control (PCC)Show full document text
