Title : Crypto Based Host Identifiers

Abstract
This memo specifies a 64-bit crypto-based host identifier that can
be used as an interface identifier in protocols that allow address
agility, such as [ODT]. The cryptographic nature of the host
identifier makes it possible to determine whether a correspondent
is legitimately using said host identifier or not.
The host identifiers can be used as regular interface identifiers
in protocols that don't require an identifier that is separate from
locators, or they can be expanded to 128-bit IPv6 address like
values for use with protocols that do need such an identifier-only
value.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-van-beijnum-multi6-cbhi-00.txt".
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.
