My main concern would be issues to do with the MAP information propagation, and the MAP selection algorithm ... I think there's some common ground between the tactics of HMIP and the FMIP three-party-handover and I suspect the best solution is in that region somewhere ... > => What you're doing (optimistic DAD) can be combined > with Fast Handovers to completely eliminate movement > detection delay.

It's tricky getting anticipation signalling out of most 802.11 drivers, but we've had success getting L2 to signal L3 that it has just reassociated, causing L3 to RS. Greg Daley has more information here, I'm sure he'll chip in when he gets back to town ... -----N -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPng Working Group Mailing List IPng Home Page: http://playground.sun.com/ipng FTP archive: ftp://playground.sun.com/pub/ipng Direct all administrative requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------
