Title: Multiple Care-of Addresses Registration

According to the current Mobile IPv6 specification, a mobile node may have
several care-of addresses, but only one, termed the primary care-of
address, can be registered with its home agent and the correspondent nodes.
However, for matters of cost, bandwidth, delay, etc, it is useful for the
mobile node to get Internet access through multiple access media (i.e.
interfaces) simultaneously, in which case multiple active IPv6 care-of
addresses would be assigned to the mobile node. We thus propose Mobile IPv6
extensions designed to register multiple care-of addresses bound to a
single home address instead of the sole primary care-of address. For doing
so, a new identification number must be carried in each binding for the
receiver to distinguish between the bindings corresponding to the same home
address. Those extensions are targeted to Network Mobility (NEMO) as well
as to Mobile IPv6.
