	Title           : Agent-based multicast support for moving networks (NEMO)

This document describes an approach to support multicast listeners
and senders located within a moving IPv6 network (NEMO). A NEMO
is built up by at least one Mobile Router (MR) and a set of Mobile
Network Nodes (MNNs).  The MR handles all routing related tasks to 
provide connectivity between the MNNs and an access network
including mobility management.  Correspondingly the MR also
subscribes to multicast groups and forwards emerging multicast
traffic on behalf of a MNN.
For optimised routing of multicast data a hierarchical multicast
agent is introduced as a logical entity providing an anchor to the
multicast tree.  In the MR a corresponding functionality is defined
which decides on the location of the specific agent to be used for a
distinct multicast traffic.
