Abstract
Internet user is growing incrementally over the world. Most of them use mobile devices to connect the internet. They aim to stay in connection every time and everywhere. Thus, they use mobile IP communication to get always connected to the internet while they move to another place. Fortunately, the telco infrastructure has reached many places in the world. In addition, the video file transmission is now becoming a new trend especially a short movie transmitted via social media. The huge of the internet connection caused the scarcity of Internet address. This was anticipated by introducing IPv6 that supported the mobility by presenting the Mobile IPv6. This paper evaluates the performance on the MIPv6 mechanism on transferring video when the user moves to another place that usually different network infrastructure. Therefore, the vertical handover does not disturb the quality of the video transmission. The experimentation results show during the vertical handover, transmission packet loss less than 3% that categorized as good. Thus, the handover success ratio for all video format file reached 100%
