{{unreferenced section|date=November 2024}}

Host Identity Protocol version 2 (HIPv2), also known as HIP version 2, is an update to the protocol that enhances security and support for mobile environments. HIP continues to separate the roles of identification and location in IP addressing by implementing a host identity namespace based on cryptography. This version introduces new features that allow devices to connect more securely and efficiently, even in scenarios involving mobility and multihoming (connecting to multiple networks).
