Title : Benefits of multiple care-of addresses and home addresses for low power multimode mobiles
Author(s) : S. Tsao
Filename : draft-tsao-mip-multihoming-lowpower-00.txt
Pages : 7
Date : 2005-10-25
It is expected that future mobile devices will equip multiple
wireless interfaces in order to access the Internet ubiquitously. For
such a multimode mobile node (MMN) that might have multiple home
addresses to associate with its interfaces, the MMN has to keep its
interfaces awake to listen the packets to these home addresses (HoAs).
Therefore, the MMN consumes a considerable energy to maintain the
reachablilities of these HoAs/interfaces. The draft presents the
benefits to use multiple care-of addresses and/or home addresses to
save the idle-mode power consumption of an MMN, and also discusses
the impacts and the requirements of the existing IETF protocols to
support the proposed low power operations.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-tsao-mip-multihoming-lowpower-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.
