Expanding the Address space through REBEKAH-IP: An Architectural View
Author
Summary, in English
The advent of 2.5 and 3G networks mark the
beginning of the mobile Internet. The investments in these
technologies will be the largest in the history of
telecommunication. However, their success will largely depend on
the availability of successful services and initially these will
largely constitute existing services. These services all reside in the
current IPv4 address space which make them inaccessible to
mobile Internet terminals that will reside in the IPv6 address
space.
There have been many proposals in literature for translating
between the two address spaces, but as we will show, they all have
shortcomings that make them unsuitable for large scale
deployment in the mobile Internet. In this paper, we detail the
algorithms and mechanisms of our proposal for overcoming the
shortcomings of the previous proposals. We also present
experimental results from early experiments that justify our
implementation design decisions.
