Parameter Description
Mobility Host Entry
Hold Time
Number of seconds the mobility state is retained after the loss of connectivity.
This allows authentication state and mobility information to be preserved on the
home agent controller. The default is 60 seconds but can be safely increased. In
many case a station state is deleted without waiting for the stale timeout; user
delete from management, foreign agent to foreign agent handoff, and so on.
(This is different from the no-service-timeout; no-service-timeout occurs up
front, while the stale-timeout begins when mobility service is provided but the
connection is disrupted for some reason.)
Mobility Host Entry
Lifetime
Time, in seconds, after which mobility service expires. If nothing has changed
from the previous state, the client is given another bridge entry but it will have
limited connectivity.
Revocation
Retransmits Maximum number of times the home agent or foreign agent attempts mobile IP
registration/revocation message exchanges before giving up.
Range: 0-5 retransmissions
Default: 3 retransmissions.
Interval Retransmission interval, in milliseconds.
Range: 100-10000 milliseconds
Default: 1000 milliseconds

In the CLI
To configure foreign agent functionality, use the following command:
ip mobile foreign-agent {lifetime <seconds> | max-visitors <number> |
registrations {interval <msecs> | retransmits <number>}}
To configure home agent functionality, use the following command:
ip mobile home-agent {max-bindings <number>|replay <seconds>}
To configure proxy mobile IP and DHCP functionality, use the following command:
ip mobile proxy
auth-sta-roam-only | event-threshold <number> | log-trail | no-service-timeout <seconds> |
on-association | stale-timeout <seconds> | trail-length <number> |trail-timeout <seconds>
To configure revocation functionality, use the following command:
ip mobile revocation {interval <msec>|retransmits <number>
To enable packet trace for a given MAC address, use the following command:
ip mobile packet-trace <host MAC address>
Proxy Mobile IP
The proxy mobile IP module in a mobility-enabled controller detects when a mobile client has moved to a
foreign network and determines the home agent for a roaming client. The proxy mobile IP module performs
the following functions:
