Hi all,

With Mobile IP there are 2 types of care-of addresses:

    1) Care-of-address acquired from a Foreign Agent
    2) Colocated care-of-address

The Cisco docs does a good job of explaining what these are but doesn't say
anything about what determines which type of address is used or why 1 type
should be used versus the other.

Do I, as the network engineer, determine which type of address is used? Does
this depend on what mobile node software is installed on the client or is this
configured on the router, and if so, how?

Please help me understand this. Thanks, Jim
