Abstract
A method is disclosed for routing packets in an intermediate node between a mobile node and a correspondent node in a packet-switched network, only one of said nodes being macro-mobility enabled, comprising at the intermediate node: —exchanging lower-layer-address-update-related messages with said macro-mobility enabled node; —mapping source address, destination address and potentially protocol parameters of lower-layer packets exchanged between the mobile node and the correspondent node in such a way that the macro-mobility enabled node can communicate with the other node as if the other node is also macro-mobility enabled, and such that the other node can communicate with the intermediate node as if the intermediate node is a non-macro-mobility-enabled node. Also associated devices, update methods for devices, and servers are disclosed.
