Abstract

Systems and methods are shown for selecting a home agent in a mobile IP network are described. One exemplary method includes receiving system load information, such as an average system load and a list of least-loaded home agents, on a plurality of home agents in the mobile IP network, receiving on a first home agent of the plurality of home agents a mobile IP registration request associated with a mobile node, at the first home agent, using the system load information, to determine that a load of the first home agent is too high to process the mobile IP registration request. The method further includes, at the first home agent, using the system load information to select a second home agent of the plurality of home agents to service the mobile IP registration request, and sending the mobile IP registration request from the first home agent to the second home agent.
