Yep, that's part of the reason it was felt that it was outside the scope of MobileIP. Applies even to nodes which do not care about getting traffic redirected to them but merely want to send datagrams in a timely manner. > I believe the reason it was not taken up by the DNA > group was not that they did not want it, but rather > that it was felt that the expertise resides more in > the IPv6 WG. Yep. There is some overlap with DNA ... after all, we are both trying to do things very quickly and with minimal signalling. But DNA is being kept to a very tight focus (which is probably a good thing). IPv6 WG is where Optimistic DAD must sink or swim! -----Nick 'sharkey' Moore (quietly optimistic) -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Administrative Requests: https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
