Title: IPv6 Multihoming with Alternate Path Encoding
State: Active
Authors: Kevin Loch

This memo provides a method for multihoming IPv6 networks. A multihomed
site assigns IPv6 interface addresses using some of the network bits from
one or more alternate networks. IPv6 routers may use this encoded path
information when making routing decisions. If a sufficient number of IPv6
routers use this method then benefits of multihoming can be realized by any
multihomed IPv6 site. This method may also be used for separate site load
distribution as a limited form of anycast.
