Re: [netlmm] #55: Define desired scalability more precisely

Please see paragraph 7 of the charter:

"The scope of the work is initially limited to IPv6 both in the backbone
and on the edges..."

The design goal NETLMM protocol mentioned:  Support for any IP version host. 
(65th IETF minutes)
That means MN can be IPv4 host or IPv6 host.

If the host is IPv4, we can use DHCP to assign address. In that case, there 
is scalability problem, I think.
