Abstract

A mobility manager provides mobility management of mobile nodes in accordance with bandwidth allocated from an access point. The mobility manager receives traffic shaping report messages from a traffic shaper within an access network of which the access point forms part, the traffic shaping report messages reporting on a current use of bandwidth for each of a plurality of different traffic types by one or more non mobility-managed mobile nodes which are not controlled by the mobility manager, and reporting on bandwidth used by one or more of the mobility-managed mobile nodes, which are managed by the mobility manager. The traffic pattern is adapted in accordance with a current use of bandwidth for the different traffic types by the non mobility-managed mobile node and is communicated to the traffic shaper for use in controlling the bandwidth of the access point in accordance with the adapted traffic pattern.
