Hi Pekka, If i understand it correctly, the draft essentially specifies the required mecnahins and extensions to the HIP protocol to safely modify the set of addresses that can be used by two communicating hosts to reach each other. While this is a fundamental part of a mechanism to preserve established communications in multi-homed and mobile environments, it is not by itselt enough to provide multi-homing nor mobility support. Additional mechanisms and tools are required to preserve established communications both in mobile and multihomed environments, including mechanisms to deal with ingress filtering (multi-homing and mobility), detect movment (mobility), detect outages (multi-homing), locator selection for initial contact, etc. It would be interesting to try to understand how HIP (and the extensions presented in this draft ) can deal with all these issues, so it can provide a complete solution to preserve established communications. You mention that another draft is comming, perhaps are you planning to inlcude all the rest of the issues in this next draft? Thanks for the draft, regards, marcelo > -----Mensaje original----- > De: owner-multi6@ops.ietf.org [mailto:owner-multi6@ops.ietf.org]En > nombre de Pekka Nikander > Enviado el: lunes, 29 de diciembre de 2003 9:15 > Para: hipsec@honor.trusecure.com > CC: multi6@ops.ietf.org > Asunto: Updated HIP mobility & multi-homing draft > > > I've posted an updated version of the HIP mobility > and multi-homing draft to the repositories.
