Abstract
The present disclosure generally provides techniques for establishing a unique, ephemeral home address (hoa)/home agent address (ha') address pair that may be limited to use in a session having a defined lifetime. Limiting the use of this dynamic address pair to a session lifetime and by preventing a mobile node from knowing the static address of a home agent may help protect the home agent from attacks.
