	Title           : Basic Socket Interface Extensions for Host Identity Protocol (HIP)
	Author(s)       : M. Komu, T. Henderson
	Filename        : draft-ietf-hip-native-api-11.txt
	Pages           : 19
	Date            : 2009-12-29

This document defines extensions to the current sockets API for the
Host Identity Protocol (HIP).  The extensions focus on the use of
public-key based identifiers discovered via DNS resolution, but
define also interfaces for manual bindings between HITs and locators.
With the extensions, the application can also support more relaxed
security models where the communication can be non-HIP based,
according to local policies.  The extensions in this document are
experimental and provide basic tools for further experimentation with
policies.
