	Title           : DHCPv6 Based Home Network Prefix Delegation for PMIPv6

In Proxy Mobile IPv6, one prefix can only be assigned to one
interface of a mobile node by the local mobility anchor (LMA) and
different mobile nodes can not share this home network prefix.
Managing per-MN's interface home network prefixes is likely to
increase the processing load at the LMA.  Based on the idea that
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6) servers can
manage prefixes, we propose a new technique in which LMA offloads
delegation and release tasks of the prefixes to the DHCPv6 server.
LMA requests a prefix for an incoming mobile node to the DHCPv6
server.  Based on this prefix, the mobile node can create a home
address for its interface.  When the mobile station leaves the
network, the prefix is returned to the DHCPv6 server.
Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA) servers can also
play a role in prefix delegation.

NOTE:   The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
