NAME

       miprod.conf - Mobile IPv4 Route Optimization configuration file

SYNOPSIS

       (default file name)

DESCRIPTION

       When invoked, the Mobile IPv4 Route Optimization daemon, reads its configuration information from its default file name.

       This file is created by Mobile IPv4's configuration program, This program requires 'root' access and this file must be created in order for
       to run correctly.

   Syntax
       The basic structure of the configuration file consists of one mandatory section and one optional section.   They  are  delimited  by  curly
       braces in the form:

		.
		.
		.

       Each section generally contains a series of lines, each line providing the value for one configuration option in the form

       For the most part, white spaces are ignored and a line beginning with '#' comments out the rest of the line.

       The configuration file consists of two sections, and is mandatory section while is optional.

   The keys Section
       The  section  contains a list of authentication keys between the Correspondent Node (CN) and the Home Agent (HA) for authenticating Binding
       Update messages from the Home Agent.

       Syntax:

       These fields are:

       HA	 is the Home Agent IP address.

       spi	 is the Security Parameter Index, a 32-bit integer.  Values 0-255 are reserved and cannot be used.

       algo	 is the hashing algorithm used for this security association.  Accepted algorithms are hmac-md5 and md5.

       tstamp	 means to use time-stamping for replay protection.

       key	 is the authentication key (16 bytes).	Each byte is entered in two digits separated by a space.

   The ether Section
       The section is optional and is used to specify the source IP address used when the daemon creates a tunnel to the Mobile Node or  the  For-
       eign  Agent.   The  two	labels for this section are and If this section is omitted, will do a gethostbyname() call for the local system to
       obtain an IP address for the source tunnel.

       The syntax and description for the two labels are given below.

       where value is the name of the network interface card that supports Mobile IPv4.

       where  value is the primary IP address for interface given above.
