I think that when Vijay said "MOBIKE" he meant the system composed of IPsec, IKEv2, and MOBIKE. Essentially, its the IKEv2 messages and IPsec AH/ESP packets that need to use an address. There may be some MOBIKE control messages too, but those are carried on top of IKEv2. And MOBIKE exists for the reason that it should help IKEv2 and IPsec traffic to go to the right address. => so you have two different usages: the IPsec one (which is important because the provided service is IPsec) and the IKEv2 one (MOBIUKE is "embedded" into IKEv2). The second is already handled by the DPD of IKEv2. Regards [email protected]
