The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Transient Binding for Proxy Mobile IPv6' <draft-ietf-mipshop-transient-bce-pmipv6-07.txt> as an Experimental RFC This document is the product of the Mobility for IP: Performance, Signaling and Handoff Optimization Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Jari Arkko and Ralph Droms. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-mipshop-transient-bce-pmipv6/ Technical Summary This document specifies a mechanism which enhances Proxy Mobile IPv6 protocol signaling to support the creation of a transient binding cache entry which is used to optimize the performance of dual radio handover, as well as single radio handover. Working Group Summary This is a product of the MIPSHOP WG. See below for more information. Document Quality The document has been discussed on the MIPSHOP WG mailing list and was subject to considerable debate. The core of the debate centered around the need for host support for this mechanism. Personnel Document Shepherd is Vijay Devarapalli, and the responsible Area Director is Jari Arkko. RFC Editor Note Please add the following text to the end of the first paragraph in the Security Considerations section: NEW: No new security considerations are introduced in addition to those in RFC 5213. Thus, the security considerations described throughout [RFC5213] apply here as well. Also, change this: OLD: Where no support from the link layer exists and no such indication can be provided to the nMAG by the network, the host and the network may need to inform each other about the intended movement. The method by which this is accomplished is outside the scope of this specification. NEW: Where no support from the link layer exists and no such indication can be provided to the nMAG by the network, the nMAG MUST assume that the host is incapable of this mode of operation, and employ standard behavior as specified in RFC 5213. In other words, nMAG initiates a regular RFC5213 handover. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
