This document discusses the architecture of mobile SCTP (mSCTP) for IP
mobility support. The SCTP is the third transport layer protocol next to
TCP/UDP. It can also be used for IP mobility from the multi- homing
features. The SCTP with the ADDIP extension (or mSCTP) would provide
seamless or soft handover for the mobile host without support of routers or
agents in the networks. For location management, the mSCTP could be used
along with Mobile IP, Session Initiation Protocol or Reliable Server
Pooling.
