	Title		: Seamless Multicast Handover in a Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 Environment (M-HMIPv6)
	Author(s)	: T. Schmidt, M. Waehlisch
	Filename	: draft-schmidt-waehlisch-mhmipv6-01.txt

This document introduces handover mechanisms for mobile IPv6 
multicast listeners and mobile multicast senders. Operations are 
based on a Mobile IPv6 environment with local mobility anchor points. 
These local anchor points are conformal with a Hierarchical Mobile 
IPv6 infrastructure. 
Handover latencies in the proposed scheme remain bound to local link 
switching delay and local IP address updates by means of latency 
hiding techniques. The mechanisms described in this document may also 
be used for simple seamless handovers in unicast communication. 
The M-HMIPv6 protocol operations utilize the existing HMIPv6 and 
MIPv6 messages, without defining any new control messages.

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.
