Mobile IP Course benefits
Mobile IP has been developed by the IETF to address the deficiencies of IPv4 and IPv6 in mobile and wireless applications.
Mobile IP is now employed mobile communications networks, and is increasingly supported in computer operating systems, commercial router products and TCP/IP stacks from third party vendors. Voice over mobile IP is also being trialled by several mobile network operators.
This Mobile IP course focuses on the technical architecture and operation of Mobile IP. The course examines in depth the Mobile IP architecture, protocols and processes including Registration, Tunneling and Security, and provides a comparison of Mobile IPv4 against IPv6.
Mobile IP Course Objectives
On completing this Mobile IP course, delegates will be able to: Understand the architecture of Mobile IP services; Plan and evaluate the use of Mobile IP in commercial products and services; Appreciate the security mechanisms and differences between Mobile IP and IPv6.
Who should attend?
Technical staff responsible for implementing IP-based mobile networks.
Software and hardware developers, marketing and planning professionals working with mobile applications and systems vendors.
Network planners and developers who need to understand the role of Mobile IP and its use with modern communications technologies.
Pre-requisites
Delegates must have a details understanding of TCP/IP protocols, architecture and operation. Course 315: TCP/IP: Protocols, Analysis and Support" is highly recommended.
