Broadcast Datagrams

When a home agent receives a broadcast datagram, it does not forward the datagram to any mobile nodes in its mobility binding list. However, the home agent does forward the datagram if a mobile node has requested forwarding of broadcast datagrams. For each registered mobile node, the home agent forwards received broadcast datagrams to the mobile node; the method depends on how the configuration of the home agent specifies categories of broadcast datagrams forwarded to mobile nodes.
