A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.
This draft is a work item of the Mobile Nodes and Multiple Interfaces in IPv6 Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Motivations and Scenarios for Using Multiple
Interfaces and Global Addresses
Author(s) : T. Ernst, et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-monami6-multihoming-motivation-scenario-01.txt
Pages : 24
Date : 2006-10-26
In this document, multihoming is investigated from a node point of
view, and not from a site point of view as the term "multihoming" is
commonly understood so far. The purpose of this document is to
explain the motivations for fixed and mobile nodes (hosts and
routers) using multiple interfaces and the scenarios where this may
end up using multiple global addresses on their interfaces. Such
multihoming configurations can bring a number of benefits once
appropriate support mechanisms are put in place. Interestingly, this
analysis is generic, i.e. motivations and benefits of node
multihoming apply to both fixed end nodes and mobile end nodes.

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.
