Title: Considerations on HIP based IPv6 multi-homing
State: Active
Authors: Pekka Nikander
Group: Individual Submissions (none)

The Host Identity Protocol implements the identifier locator separation by
introduing a new name space and a new layer to the IP stack. The new
structure insulates the transport layer protocols from the internetworking
layer, thereby allowing transport sessions to remain unaffected even if the
underlying IP addresses change. That, in turn, seems to make it easier to
solve the so called site multi-homing problem than without introducing such
an indirection layer. This document discusses how the proposed HIP mobility
and multi-homing solution, described separately, would fit to the IETF
multi6 working group requirements.
