A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.
This draft is a work item of the Site Multihoming by IPv6 Intermediation Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Socket Application Program Interface (API)
for Multihoming Shim
Author(s) : M. Komu, et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-shim6-multihome-shim-api-01.txt
Pages : 34
Date : 2006-10-26
This document specifies a socket API for the multihoming shim layer.
The API aims to enable interactions between the applications and the
multihoming shim layer for advanced locator management and access to
information about failure detection and path exploration.
This document is based on an assumption that a multhomed host is
equipped with a conceptual sublayer (here after "shim") inside the IP
layer that maintains mappings between identifiers and locators.
Examples of the shim are SHIM6 and HIP.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-shim6-multihome-shim-api-01.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.
