Title : Simultaneous Bindings for Mobile IPv6 Fast Handovers

Fast Handover for Mobile IPv6 [1] minimizes the amount of service
disruption when performing layer-3 handovers. This draft extends the
Fast Handover protocol with a simultaneous bindings function to
minimize packet loss at the MN. Traffic for the MN is therefore
bicast or n-cast for a short period to its current location and to
one or more locations where the MN is expected to move to shortly.
This removes the timing ambiguity regarding when to start sending
traffic for the MN to its new point of attachment following a Fast
Handover and allows the decoupling of layer-2 and layer-3 handovers.
It also saves the MN periods of service disruption in the case of
ping-pong movement.

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.
