Title : Load-Balancing Proactive Internet Gateway Selection in MANET
Author(s) : Y. Kim, et al.
Filename : draft-kim-autoconf-gatewaysel-01.txt
Pages : 12

The mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a rapidly configurable multi-hop
wireless network without an infrastructure and originally proposed
for the military use. In order to make the MANET a more commonly used
network in our daily lives, it may be necessary to connect the MANET
to the global Internet. A MANET node can communicate with an Internet
node via the Internet gateway. To support fault tolerance and
increase the bandwidth, multiple Internet gateways can be deployed
within a MANET and, in this case, the network performance can be
improved by balancing the load among Internet gateways. In this draft,
we propose load-balancing Internet gateway selection mechanisms for
the MANET with multiple stationary Internet gateways. In addition to
this, we propose a scheme that reduces the routing control message
overhead in the MANET when a MANET node sets up the route to Internet
gateway using global address.

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
