MIS Protocol for Secure Connection and Fast Handover on Wireless LAN

MIS (mobile Internet services) architecture is designed for secure connection and fast handover with wireless LAN. This architecture consists of three protocols, MISP (mobile Internet services protocol), MISAUTHP (mobile Internet services authentication protocol) and MIS MobilelP, and two kinds of servers, authentication servers and home agent, base routers and mobile nodes. MISP is a protocol designed for authentication, IP address assignments, session key exchanges and various negotiations between mobile nodes and base routers with one-round-trip packet exchange after a mobile node receives beacons. MISP quickly establishes link between mobile nodes and base routers. MISAUTHP is a protocol for authentication between authentication servers and base routers. MISAUTHP can authenticate mobile nodes and base routers with single exchange of packets too, MIS MobilelP is a mobility support protocol for IPv4. This is a subset of RFC2002 MobileIP. We mainly describe about MISP, MISAUTHP and comparison between MISP with MISAUTHP and IEEE802.11 with IEEE802.1x
