Today's networks must maintain functionality in an ever increasing threat environment. To date, many of the PDR (Protection, Detection, Reaction) mechanisms have focused on technologies to defend systems while maintaining consistent network presence. In this paper we discuss a dynamic network schema wherein system protection is accomplished through a unique implementation of IP roaming. This method is shown to mask a system on a network undergoing various types of attacks while maintaining connectivity with trusted clients. Additionally, this method allows for new clients to associate without heavy authentication or knowledge of the remote systems IP Roaming status. This paper will show the advantages of implementing this unique method of IP roaming with the goal of minimizing system overhead and maximizing sustained connectivity.
