Ivip (Internet Vastly Improved Plumbing) is a Core-Edge Separation
solution to the routing scaling problem, for both IPv4 and IPv6.  It
provides portable address "edge" address space which is suitable for
multihoming and inbound traffic engineering (TE) to end-user networks
of all types and sizes - in a manner which imposes far less load on
the DFZ control plane than the only current method of achieving these
benefits: separately advertised PI prefixes.  Ivip includes two
extensions for ITR-to-ETR tunneling without encapsulation and the
Path MTU Discovery problems which result from encapsulation - one for
IPv4 and the other for IPv6.  Both involve modifying the IP header
and require most DFZ routers to be upgraded.  Ivip is a good basis
for the TTR (Translating Tunnel Router) approach to mobility, in
which mobile hosts retain an SPI micronet of one or more IPv4
addresses (or IPv6 /64s) no matter what addresses or access network
they are using, including behind NAT and on SPI addresses.  TTR
mobility for both IPv4 and IPv6 involves generally optimal paths,
works with unmodified correspondent hosts and supports all
application protocols.
