In my recent article regarding the implementation of a MIP solution with Mikrotik RouterOS clients, I described some of the issues surrounding the a MIP solution as well as some of the solutions. This article generated quite a bit of response and I wanted to take the time to now offer some business ideas for how this can be useful to WISPs.
It seems to be “all the rage”. Mobile IP. In reality, mobile IP, describes the ability for a user to move across a network without having to renumber his devices. This definition holds true even if a user moves from one network to another. In other words, a user is able to keep his IP address without regard to where his device exists on the internet. That’s not exactly what I’m gonna describe here, but it is a very close approximation.
The solution you are about to read is real and tested….names (and IPs) may be changed to protect the innocent…
