The proxy mobile IP module in a mobility-enabled controller detects when a mobile client has moved to a foreign network and determines the home agent for a roaming client. The proxy mobile IP module performs the following functions:  Derives the address of the home agent for a mobile client from the HAT using the mobile client's IP address. If there is more than one possible home agent for a mobile client in the HAT, the proxy mobile IP module uses a discovery mechanism to find the current home agent for the client.  Detects when a mobile client has moved. Client moves are detected based on ingress port and VLAN changes and mobility is triggered accordingly. For faster roaming convergence between AP(s) on the same controller, it is recommended that you keep the "on station association" option enabled. This helps trigger mobility as soon as 802.11 association packets are received from the mobile client. Select this option to support standalone APs on the IP Mobility domain. Enable this option to log client movement in the IP Mobility domain. This setting is derived from station association in a foreign network. Enable this setting to require authentication for roaming stations. Enable or disable the filtering of DHCP information when a client is released from a station. Enable or disable re-homing for idle voice-capable clients. This setting reassigns the home network in relation to a voice-capable client that is idle (non-roaming). Set the maximum number of events, per second, that station mobility events can be supported. Define how long inactive host trails are to be supported in IP mobility. Define how many events are to be logged in IP mobility. Define how long IP mobility is to support hosts should there be a disconnection. Define how long host entries in the IP mobility domain are to be maintained when they are without mobility.

Maximum Number of Active
Bindings
(0-5000)
5000
Define the maximum number of bindings in which the home agent network is to
support a client when the client is out of range of the network, or otherwise
disconnected.
Proxy Mobile IP
Trigger Mobility on Station
Association
Yes
Enable this setting to trigger client mobility processing on the network once a
client has associated to the network in mobile fashion.
The proxy mobile IP module in a mobility-enabled controller detects when a
mobile client has moved to a foreign network and determines the home agent for a
roaming client. The proxy mobile IP module performs the following functions:
Derives the address of the home agent for a mobile client from the HAT using
the mobile client’s IP address. If there is more than one possible home agent
for a mobile client in the HAT, the proxy mobile IP module uses a discovery
mechanism to find the current home agent for the client.
Detects when a mobile client has moved. Client moves are detected based on
ingress port and VLAN changes and mobility is triggered accordingly. For
faster roaming convergence between AP(s) on the same controller, it is
recommended that you keep the “
on station association
” option enabled.
This helps trigger mobility as soon as 802.11 association packets are received
from the mobile client.
Enable Support for Standalone
APs
No
Select this option to support standalone APs on the IP Mobility domain.
Log User Moves
Yes
Enable this option to log client movement in the IP Mobility domain. This setting is
derived from station association in a foreign network.
Allow Roaming for
Authenticated Stations Only
Yes
Enable this setting to require authentication for roaming stations.
Filter out DHCP Release from
Stations
No
Enable or disable the filtering of DHCP information when a client is released from a
station.
Re-home Idle Voice Capable
Client
No
Enable or disable re-homing for idle voice-capable clients. This setting reassigns
the home network in relation to a voice-capable client that is idle (non-roaming).
Maximum Number of Station
Mobility Events Per Second
(1-
65535)
10
Set the maximum number of events, per second, that station mobility events can
be supported.
Maximum Interval Mobility Will
Hold Inactive Host Trail
(120-3600 sec)
600
Define how long inactive host trails are to be supported in IP mobility.
Maximum Entries in User
Mobility Trail
(1-30)
10
Define how many events are to be logged in IP mobility.
Mobility Host Entry Hold Time
After Connectivity Loss
(30-3600 sec)
60
Define how long IP mobility is to support hosts should there be a disconnection.
Mobility Host Entry LIfetime
When Mobility Cannot Be
Provided
(30-60000 sec)
120
Define how long host entries in the IP mobility domain are to be maintained when
they are without mobility.
