Hi,
I have a mobile IPv6 testbed consisting of home and foreign networks (both wireless and both connected to the IPv6 Internet each on different ISPs). My ubuntu-based MN is able to connect to the Internet using either home or foreign link (both HA/Home AR and Foreign AR are ubuntu boxes). But once I start the (UMIP) mip6d daemon and attempt to move the MN by changing connection point (clicking on the target link), the 'connection' ?icon on the taskbar shows a sign of continuous fluctuation with the signal bars blinking non stop. If I am moving from foreign network to home amid a ping event, the connection is maintained although the fluctuation continues, with the ping messages being interrupted intermittently. The MN disconnects after every 1 minute or thereabout and then connects back again or connects to the foreign link. The same thing happens if I am moving from home network to foreign network. In short, the connection constantly interchanges between
the 2 links.
And as soon as I stop the mip6d, my full connection is resumed and everything continue to work fine. I am not using IPSEC at the moment.
Has anyone come across any problem such as this one, or is there anyone with a clue on what is happening, please?
?Regards,
