Example 2

The problem presented here could be solved by placing a Migration Agent in
Segment A as shown in the foloowing figure. The Migration Server would
then present to Server A the best route to the CMD network and the packets
from Server A to Client A would follow the path shown by the broken line.

Nodes A and B want to communicate, but they can do so only through the
Migration Agent in Segment A. Under this scenario, packets sent between
Node A and Node B are forced to traverse the WAN link twice, as shown by
the broken line, resulting in poor performance.
