Ok thanks. But my earthquake example was an example. I think this is a networking topic, similarly to MANET. How to encode a human name into an IPv6 address?

(and impossible with IPv4) Thank you. pars > On 2006/06/12, at 17:35, Pars Mutaf wrote: > > > > > Hi, > > > > On Mon, 2006-06-12 at 17:18 +0900, Ruri Hiromi wrote: > >> Hi Pars, > >> > >> I got it, I can imagine what you want to do. > >> SIP has similar mechanism that you want, I suppose, so that what is > >> the merit on this? > >> Sorry for my primitive question. > > > > No it is a good question. > > > > The idea is that when the DNS is down (or unreachable), > > and/or Mobile IPv6 home agent is down etc, and there is no way > > to locate and reach the destination host, then I can try to > > use this technique. > > > > Imagine an earthquake scenario.
