Abstract
Network based VPN(Virtual Private Network) using MPLS(Multiprotocol Label Switching) technology is regarded as a good solution for intranets or extranets because of the low cost and the flexibility of the service provision. In this paper, we describea mechanism that allows the VPN users to move from one site to another site of the VPN network based on the BGP-E MPLS technology. This mechanism is designed for and implemented on PE(Provider Edge) routers of the backbone network. PE routers connected to the VPN sites establish a new MPLS path to the mobile node after they detect movement of the mobile VPN node. The new location may belong to the same VPN or to different VPN. We designed VPN management and control functions of the PE routers in order to interface with the Mobile IP protocol. The pilot implementation and performance measurement were carried out on a testbed.
