Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Agent solicitation: If no agent advertisements are present or the inter arrival time is too high, and an MN has not received a COA, the mobile node must send agent solicitations. These solicitations are again bases on RFC 1256 for router solicitations.

Detailed explanation-2: -The foreign agent delivers the datagram to the mobile node. Datagrams from the mobile node to the Internet host are sent using normal IP routing procedures. If the mobile node is on a foreign network, the packets are delivered to the foreign agent. The foreign agent forwards the datagram to the Internet host.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are two different possibilities for the location of the COA: Foreign agent COA: The COA could be located at the FA, i.e., the COA is an IP address of the FA. The FA is the tunnel end-point and forwards packets to the MN. Many MN using the FA can share this COA as common COA.
