Re: [DMM] DMM solution space categorization

[Jouni Korhonen <[e-mail]>]

Alper,

Thanks for doing the categorization work. We should also try to look 
these how they fit under the proposed new milestones. See below:

Then we have a number of I-Ds from MIF:

  draft-kk-mpvd-ndp-support
  draft-kkb-mpvd-dhcp-support
  draft-kkbg-mpvd-id

These intend to build the overall method of conveying the signaling 
between the network and the mn. There are no spacific use cases 
described for mobility yet but those are then amendments for the above.

  draft-liu-dmm-mobility-api

Above has extensions to RFC5014 for applications to check prefix properties.

In my optinion this also fits under "Exposing mobility state to mobile 
nodes and network nodes".

Still related to "Enhanced mobility anchoring". Many of these I-Ds 
handle the anchor change issues (like tunneling between the anchors).

Still under "Enhanced mobility anchoring".
