All mip6mod Parameters
50
-ni
num_mip6mod_instances
The number of mip6mod instances to start and use for processing
messages with Mobility Headers. The num_mip6mod_instances value
must be an integer in the range [1–N], where N represents the number of
processors on the system.
The default value for num_mip6mod_instances is 1.
-mb
max_bindings
The maximum number of combined Home Agent and Correspondent Node
binding cache entries mip6mod can support. The max_bindings value
must be an integer in the range [1–100,000] and must be greater or equal
to the max_home_bindings value.
The default value for max_bindings is 10,000 or the value of
max_home_bindings, whichever value is the greater of the two.
-mhb
max_home_bindings
The maximum number of Home Agent binding cache entries mip6mod can
support. The max_home_bindings value must be an integer in the range
[1–100,000] and must be less or equal to the max_bindings value.
The default value for max_home_bindings is 10,000 or the value of
max_bindings, whichever value is the least of the two.
-bl
max_binding_lifetime
The maximum lifetime, measured in seconds, for a binding cache entry.
The max_binding_lifetime value must be an integer in the range
[1–262,140].
The default value for max_binding_lifetime is 262,140 (which is 4,369
minutes or, approximately 72 hours, or 3 days).
-bai
binding_refresh_advice_interval
When mip6mod is a Home Agent, it can “advise” registered Mobile Nodes
when to refresh their registration (i.e., re-register) based on the lifetime of
their current registrtion. The binding_refresh_advice_interval value,
included in Binding Acknowledgement messages sent to Mobile Nodes,
indicates when Mobile Nodes should re-register by specifying a number of
seconds prior to the expiration of their current registration.
The binding_refresh_advice_interval value must be an integer in the
range [0–262,140] and must be less than the max_binding_lifetime
value. Set the binding_refresh_advice_interval value to 0 to disable
the Binding Refresh Advice option.
The default value for binding_refresh_advice_interval is 0.
-brt
binding_refresh_request_threshold
The binding_refresh_request_threshold determines when mip6mod
(as a Correspondent Node) sends Binding Refresh Request messages to
registered Mobile Nodes. The binding_refresh_request_threshold is
relative to the lifetime of the Mobile Node’s current registration. The
value of binding_refresh_request_threshold is the number of seconds
prior to the expiration of the Mobile Node’s current registration that
mip6mod sends Binding Refresh Request messages requesting the Mobile
Nodes re-register.
