The IESG has received a request from the Host Identity Protocol WG (hip) to consider the following document: - 'Host Identity Protocol (HIP) Rendezvous Extension' <draft-ietf-hip-rfc5204-bis-06.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2015-12-28. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document defines a rendezvous extension for the Host Identity Protocol (HIP). The rendezvous extension extends HIP and the HIP registration extension for initiating communication between HIP nodes via HIP rendezvous servers. Rendezvous servers improve reachability and operation when HIP nodes are multi-homed or mobile. This document obsoletes RFC5204. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-hip-rfc5204-bis/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-hip-rfc5204-bis/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
