	Title		: Mobile IPv6 Regional Forwarding

Data forwarding to a Mobile IPv6 mobile node employs either
encapsulation or routing header -based forwarding, latter when using
route optimization.  Forwarding through a domain with hierarchical
extensions to Mobile IPv6 by default uses encapsulation to pass
route-optimized packets over the last hop to the mobile node.
However, it is highly desirable to avoid the overhead of sending
an extra 40 byte encapsulation header per packet over the last
hop.  This document describes Mobile IPv6 regional forwarding which
is an optional optimized data forwarding method.  It avoids the
encapsulation header and can be used e.g. with Mobile IPv6 Regional
Registrations.

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.
