A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : Proactive Approach for Detecting Network Attachment
Author(s) : E. Shim
Filename : draft-shim-dna-proactive-00.txt

Date : 2004-1-28
We propose a Proactive Approach for Detecting Network Attachment
(DNA). In the approach, the mobile node caches information about
adjacent access points and access routers using the Candidate Access
Router Protocol and uses the cached information to check the new
subnet after the mobile node establishes a new air link. This enables
the mobile node to determine immediately after the new link setup
whether the mobile node needs to proceed further for new IP
configuration for the link.

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.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
