Title : DHCPv6 Options for Fast Handovers

Filename : draft-ogawa-fhopt-00.txt

When a standard Mobile IP node (MN) changes its wireless network
attachment point (performs a handover), it gets new IP layer
configuration information (a new network prefix and address of a new
default gateway) from a new access router and tries to know whether
it has moved to other subnet. If it has, it changes its IP layer
configuration. During such a handover process,it cannot send and
receive IP packets from its corresponding node(CN), so a service
disruption is caused. In this document, we introduce new DHCP
options. With them, DHCP servers can send new information before a
handover to be used after the handover, and MNscan reduce handover
process time.

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.
