Another consideration, in comparison to systems where the transport does all the book-keeping of addresses and handles mobility and multihoming on its own, is that the transport<->wedge interface will likely not be rich enough for the transport to do the sorts of things that SCTP is capable of, like retransmiting on alternate paths, load balancing between interfaces, etc. I'm not sure that the wedge interface could be made rich enough to support those types of transport decisions without completely negating the benefit of its simplicity, and certainly we don't want the wedge to be doing those types of things silently itself without the transport's consent. It looks like this issue is another point in favor of transport-based mobility/multihoming schemes. I'm still in favor of passing the book-keeping off to a common wedge somehow, but it looks like there's still quite a bit of utility in having the transport be able to query and richly interact with that wedge, rather than have it just transparently "make things work". -Wes
