1. Introduction
The demand for wireless mobile networking has been dramatically
The use of the wireless mobile networking has been dramatically
increased thanks to rapid development of wireless technology and
de facto Mobile IP technology [1]. Therefore, the need for
standardized method of specifying the user over different Internet
Service Providers (ISPs) was identified. NAI is as defined in
RFC-2486 provides the standardized method for identifying users
in order to accomplish the interoperability for roaming and
tunneling over multiple Internet Service Providers (ISPs).
The NAI (Network Access Identifier) is of the form user@realm [3].
commercial deployment of Mobile IP technology [RFC3220].
The most recent release of Mobile IPv4 supports the dynamic Home
Address assignment mechanism that allow MN (Mobile Node) being
identified by NAI (Network Access Identifier) [RFC2486] rather than
static Home IP address. NAI has a prominent role on the mobile
network environment. This is not only because NAI significantly
reduces the IPv4 address shortage problem and but also it provides
the standardized method for identifying users in order to accomplish
the interoperability for roaming over multiple ISPs (Internet Service
Providers).
The most of the Mobile IPv4 deployment including 3GPP2 CDMA2000
wireless packet data system architecture [P.S0001-B] identify
the Mobile Node by NAI. Therefore the need for standardized method
of binding the ever changing home address of the MN over various ISPs
to NAI is necessary.
The DNS basically provides a mechanism to map between hostnames and
IP address with support of many other RRs thorough hierarchically
built domain names.
Combining above two, NAI and DNS shall enable IP user mobility [2].
The IP user mobility is the ability of end user to send and
receive IP datagrams regardless of the location of the mobile
terminal and user location.
This document specifies a new RR type for NAI, mapping host IP
address and user identifier (NAI) [3].
built domain names. The NAI is of the form user@realm [RFC2486].
Adding NAI as a DNS RR shall enable tracking of the dynamically
changed home IP address. This document specifies a new RR type for
NAI, mapping host IP address and user identifier (NAI) [RFC2486].
2. Applicability Statement
Mobile IPv4 is designed to provide the IP mobility that provides
reasonably seamless IP connectivity. Since the MN (Mobile Node) is
no longer necessarily identified by the unique home IP address,
the mechanism for the locating and updating newly assigned home IP
address is required [UM].
The NAI RR defines user identifier, NAI widely used for PPP dialup
connection and Mobile IPv4. The basic idea is to let mobile Internet
user to constantly update its location(IP address), while moving
around multiple access provider network. It can enables
correspondent user to always reach the specific user by querying NAI
to name server, regardless of the location.
user to constantly update its IP address, while moving around
multiple access provider network. It can enables correspondent user
to always reach the specific user by querying NAI to name server,
regardless of the connecting location.
It is expected that NAI RR will be used in IRS(Internet Reachability
Service) of 3GPP2 wireless IP network standard [4] (see Appendix A)
and IP user mobility application [5]. Those application depends on
one to one mapping of NAI and mobile host IP address in name server.

The applications that running on the Dynamic Home Address Allocation
enabled Mobile IPv4 MN (Mobile node) depends on the one to one
mapping of NAI and newly assigned mobile host IP address in DNS name
server for the connectivity with Correspondent nodes.
Because it will be the only way the CN (Correspondent Node) can find
the Mobile Node's newly assigned IP address. An example of
application is including WWW server, IP push service, Instant
Messaging, Multi-user Network games, Multi-chat, etc.
