Title : Problem Statement: Media Independent Handover Signalling

There are on-going activities in the networking community to develop
solutions for handover between heterogeneous wired and wireless
access systems including, but not limited to, IEEE 802.21.
Intelligent access selection, taking into account link layer
attributes, requires the delivery of a variety of different
information types to the terminal from different sources within the
network. The protocol requirements for this signalling have both
transport and security issues that must be considered. The
signalling must not be constrained to specific link types, so there
is at least a common component to the signalling problem which is
within the scope of the IETF. This draft presents a problem
statement for this core problem.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-hepworth-mipshop-mih-problem-statement-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.
