Title : Find the HA that MNs Registered in MIPv6

In mobile IPv6 networks, a mobile node must register its new care of
address with its home agent after changing its attachment point, so
that it can maintain connectivity with peers. In the deployment of
MIPv6, there may be multiple home agents for load balancing and/or
reliability. In the case of load balancing, some mobile nodes may
register their care of addresses with one home agent, and other
mobile nodes may register their care of addresses with other home
agents. Some applications may need to query the MIPv6 service status
of a mobile node from home agents, such as the care of address, the
life time of binding, or other information associated with mobile
node that is stored on home agents. In order to satisfy this
requirement, the first step is to locate which home agent the mobile
node belongs to, that is to say to confirm which home agent to query.
This document describes a protocol which can be used to locate the
home agent that a mobile node belongs to.

In the body type:

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.
