Title: Localized Mobility Management Goals

This document describes goals for Localized Mobility Management (LMM) for
IP layer mobility, such Mobile IP and Mobile IPv6. These goals are intended
to guide the design of a protocol specification for LMM. Localized Mobility
Management, in general, introduces enhancements to IP layer mobility
protocols to reduce the amount of latency in IP layer mobility management
messages exchanged between a Mobile Node (MN) and its peer entities. In
addition, LMM seeks to reduce the amount of signaling over the global
Internet when a mobile node traverses within a defined local domain. The
identified goals are essential for localized mobility management
functionality. They are intended to be used as a guide for analysis on the
observed benefits over the identified goals for architecting and deploying
LMM schemes.
