Title: Hash Based Addresses (HBA)
State: Active
Authors: Marcelo Bagnulo

This memo describes a mechanism to provide a secure binding between the
multiple addresses with different prefixes available to a host within a
multihomed site. The main idea is that information about the multiple
prefixes is included within the addresses themselves. This is achieved by
generating the interface identifiers of the addresses of a host as hashes
of the available prefixes and a random number. Then, the multiple addresses
are generated by appending the different prefixes to the generated
interface identifiers. The result is a set of addresses, called Hash Based
Addresses (HBAs), that are inherently bound.
