Abstract: Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) is a protocol to deal with mobility for the next generation Internet (IPv6). However, the performance of MIPv6 has not yet been extensively investigated. Simulation using the famous network simulator Ns-2 will be used to highlight a hybrid wireless environment, over Mobile IPv6 protocol. Mobile IPv6 enables any IPv6 node to learn and cache the care-of address associated with a mobile node`s home address and then to send packets destined for the mobile node directly to it at this care-of address using an IPv6 Routing header. In this study the overall throughput of the MIPv6 with different packet size and the packet loss is examined using TCP agent and the result is analyzed using Ns-2.
