Hi,

De-emphasizing the use of Host-based mobility?  (protocol Mobile IPv6)
There is an open-source package for Mobile IPv6 at umip.org<http://umip.org/>.  The linux mainline kernel has options for MIP6.  We also maintain an internal package implementing Mobile IPv6.  Also Cisco IOS has it but its HA is buggy.

I discussed this with Tim Winters today (as co-author). Our current view is to add words to the effect that host-based MIPv6 is not widely implemented or deployed, and thus that  support is not required unless the functionality is explicitly required.  I remember doing trials with MIPL and the Cisco HA maybe 7-8 years ago, which revealed a number of issues.

It seems there is more interest in network mobility?

[Xiaohu] Did you mean network-based mobility by "network mobility"? If so, yes, I think it's the current situation.

Sorry, yes, I did.
