Internet was designed as a point-to-point communication model between two hosts which requires an IP address for the connection with every networking interface they used. The connection does not guarantee the data forwarding when mobile user changes its location and there needs to repeatedly acquire an IP address. To address these problems some solutions were proposed are Mobile IP and Host Identification Protocol (HIP) but they do not support content mobility issues and the data forwarding while nodes in the network are moving. Moreover it is the challenging task with IP based mobility environment. Unless the change in IP based environment, mobile user will continue to have trouble for the connection with multiple network interfaces, increasing network overhead and less content retrieval. However, this leads to find an efficient alternative architecture to internet which is Named data Networking (NDN). NDN supports data access by Content Names (CNs) instead of IP. NDN data packets carry unique content names instead of source and destination address. The use of unique content names for data forwarding allows mobile users to have better data access as there is no need to repeatedly acquire an IP address and may continue with data forwarding which reduces network overhead. Therefore, the proposed work is intended to work with handling of mobility with Named data Networking.
