Title : Using DHCPv6 and AAA Server for Mobile Station Prefix Delegation

In the 802.16 Per-MS prefix model, one prefix can only be assigned to
one mobile station by an access router and different mobile stations
can't share a prefix. Managing Per-MS prefixes is likely to increase
the processing load at the access router. Based on the idea that
DHCPv6 servers can manage prefixes as well as addresses, we propose a
new technique in which the access router offloads delegation and
release tasks of the prefixes to an DHCPv6 server. The access router
first requests a prefix for an incoming mobile station to the DHCPv6
server. The access router next advertises the prefix information to
the mobile station with a Router Advertisement message. When the
mobile station leaves, the prefix is returned to the DHCPv6 server.
We also describe how prefix delegation can be done by AAA servers as
an alternative technique.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-sarikaya-16ng-prefix-delegation-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
