Abstract

In this paper, the prototype system of the integration of MPLS and MIPv6 (mobile IPv6), and a test network supporting both MIPv6 and MPLS are presented; and the performance of the applications running on the test network is evaluated. The testing results indicate that the integrated network can achieve better RTT, jitter, loss rate, data transmission rate and handover delay than a non-integrated network. Nevertheless, with the variation of the background payloads, the improvements on the performance of the integrated network are not obvious and in some cases even worse than non-integrated network.
