Zarrar,
I am not disagreeing with you that optimizing the various tunnels and related procedure is an interesting and potentially useful work.
 
However, the tunnel optimization work is coming to us from MEXT, where there was extensive discussion and a good consensus built. If we want to extend the work beyond what already has consensus, we need to go through a wide discussion that may delay considerably our ability to adopt the new charter and definitely delay the rest of the work. I am not sure this is the best way forward for the working group. We could proceed in stages, i.e. optimizing first the tunnels over the air, then in a later phase (rechartering) focus on other tunnel optimizations.
 
Cheers,
Stefano

Hello Stefano and Vijay,
 
I would support Frank in his argument regarding expanding the scope and focus of the charter. I would like to stress again that we need to have a holistic look at the tunneling optimization issue. IMO when we talk about the tunneling overhead, it should also encompass all other exchange of protocol messages that is exchanged "while" the tunnel is established and not confine the specifics of the charter for messages that go "through" the tunnel only.....
 
The charter should allow tackling the issue at two parallel and synchronous tiers:
 
1. To reduce the tunneling overhead over the air link (as per the original charter suggestion)
2. To optimize the tunnel itself in terms of the processing delay and resource consumption.
 
I think that managing the two issues together is very important as they depend on each other and MAY have affects on each other. 
 
In view of the fact that we already have ideas and/or drafts to support the above two issues, taking upon the two issues together would quicken the pace of standardization and optimization.
 
I hope to get some performance results in a little more than a month regarding the second aspect and will share the result with the members.
 
BR
 
Zarrar Yousaf

	Hi Stefano and Vijay
	 
	If you say tunnel optimization is only for radio,
	I don't agree.
	 
	Header compression is popular practice in the industry.
	IMO, if we only focus on this, I think we can benefit little for our effort.

		Frank,
		I definitely agree with Vijay. In a wireless communication, the bottleneck is mostly on the radio leg, therefore it is important to optimize the tunnel over the radio. As Vijay correctly says below, PMIP does not tunnel over the radio, so we should not focus on it for the time being. I would suggest we solve one problem at a time.
		Cheers,
		Stefano

		If it is possible to re-use the solution we develop for
		PMIPv6 also, great. But we are not going to focus on
		PMIPv6 or FMIPv6 for now.
