Chapter 6 Configuring Proxy Mobile IP

The Proxy Mobile IP Setup Page

Settings on the Proxy Mobile IP General Page

Enable Proxy Mobile IP

This setting enables the proxy Mobile IP feature on the access point. The default setting is no.

Note Proxy Mobile IP must also be enabled for the SSID you intend to use to support the feature. Otherwise, proxy Mobile IP will not work. See the “Configuring Proxy Mobile IP” section on page 6-18for additional information.

Authoritative AP n

These settings identify the IP addresses of up to three AAPs on the wireless network. At least one AAP is required for the proxy Mobile IP enabled wireless network. The n represents the number of the authoritative access point. Among other tasks, the authoritative access point is the device that registers with the local home agent. After registering with the home agent, the AAP populates a subnet map that is distributed to other access points. The subnet map links the access points to the home agent to contact and register a mobile client based on the client’s IP address. For example, if a mobile client appears with a “30” subnet IP address on the “20” subnet, the access point must register with the home agent that services subnet “30” mobile clients.

Authentication Server

Selecting the Authentication Server link takes you to the Authenticator Configuration page (Figure 6-7). From this page, you configure the RADIUS or TACACS servers that will be managing proxy Mobile IP wireless devices.
