Title : Load Balancing in MANET with Multiple Internet Gateways

In MANET, nodes wishing to communicate with nodes in the wired
Internet, the global Internet connectivity is required and this
functionality can be achieved with the help of the Internet gateway
(IGW). For the support of reliability and flexibility, multiple IGWs
can be provisioned for a MANET. In this case, load-balancing becomes
one of the important issues since the network performance such as
the network throughput can be improved if the load of the IGW is
well-balanced. In this draft, we categorize the load-balancing
mechanisms for the IPv6-based MANET with multiple IGWs and define
a new load-balancing metric computed from the hop distance and
the number of routing table entries.

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.
