Abstract

Embodiments provide techniques for mobile route optimization authentication protocols. Embodiments allow for system control over whether route optimization is allowed or not allowed. A conditional allowance of route optimization solves several billing and security issues by allowing the system to impose appropriate charges for the route optimization feature or prevent route optimization where message flow using care-of addressing can be monitored.
