//
// An IPv6 router that functions as a Home Agent in Mobile IPv6 networks.
// Extends the standard IPv6 router (Router6) with Mobile IPv6 support.
//
// The Home Agent is a specialized router that maintains information about mobile nodes'
// current locations. It intercepts packets destined for mobile nodes that are away from
// their home network and tunnels them to the mobile nodes' current care-of addresses.
//
// MIPv6 routers need faster Router Advertisements on wireless-facing interfaces
// to enable timely movement detection (RFC 3775 Section 7.5). Configure via
// ~Ipv6NetworkConfigurator XML, e.g.:
//
//   `<interface hosts='ha*' names='wlan*' maxRtrAdvInterval='1.5' minRtrAdvInterval='0.5'/>`
//
// @see ~MobileHost6, ~CorrespondentNode6
