Whatever. All of the above. There are many possible ways to use identifiers, particularly for "session" (whatever that is, at whatever layer) authentication and re-authentication. The point to locator/identifier separation is primarily to get identification-related functions to stop depending on location-dependent tokens, i.e. locators. Once that's done, they can use anything they like -- and they do :-). Scott _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
