Hi all!

I need some clarification in MobileIPv6 implementation. When the mobile node
is connected to its home link it get IP address via adrress
autoconfiguration and care-of adrress when is connected to foreign link.
Here is a question.

When PC boots in home link it gets its "home" IP address. Then it shuts down
and moves to foreign link. On foreign link boots up and get "care-of"
address via autoconfiguration. How does that "mobile" node know that this is
a care-of address and not his home address.
