Hi,
has anybody tested HIP Mobility in a different way than proposed in the
HOWTO?
I'm experiencing problems using the following setup:
3 machines: Server (S), Router (R), and a Client (C).
S and R are connected via one ethernet cable, using static IP6
addresses.
C and R are connected via two ethernet cables, IP6 addresses are
configured such that each connection is a different network.

1st scenario:
- shutting down one of C's interfaces
- completing a hipsetup
- connecting C with S via HITs
- send data
- shutting down C's active interface
- starting the other interface
- send data

2nd scenario:
- shutting down one of C's interfaces
- completing a hipsetup
- connecting C with S via HITs
- send data
- unplug ethernet cable
- delete current IP
- add new IP
- plugin ethernet cable
- send data

Both testings did not work. The fact is, that no HIP REA packets arrive
at the server side. Either they are not sent when bringing up the
interfaces or they are sent before they can be routed to the correct
destination. The requests arrive at the server-side, but the server
responds to the old IP that is no longer valid.

Suggestions and ideas are welcome.

Thanks
Simon
