	Title		: Using HIP with Legacy Applications

The Host Identity Protocol and architecture (HIP) proposes to add a
cryptographic name space for network stack names.  From an
application viewpoint, HIP-enabled systems support a new address
family (e.g., AF_HOST), but it may be a long time until such HIP-
aware applications are widely deployed even if host systems are
upgraded.  This informational document discusses implementation and
API issues relating to using HIP in situations in which the system is
HIP-aware but the applications are not.
