Hi Thomas,

As promised at IETF-87, I have reviewed the Fast Handover draft. Overall the 
I-D is in very good shape. I have a few comments for your consideration. 

1)      P3: improve these handover delays for unicast communication to the 
order of the maximum delay needed for link switching and signaling between 
Access Routers (ARs) or Mobile Access Gateways (MAGs) [FMIPv6-Analysis]. ==> 
improve the performance of handover delays…… Also, what does “to the order” 
mean in this sentence?

2)      P5: The specified mechanisms apply when a mobile node has joined and 
maintains… ==> The specified mechanisms apply when a mobile node has joined and 
maintained…

3)      P6: Depending on the specific network topology though, multicast 
traffic for some groups … ==> delete the word “though” in this sentence. 

4)      P6: that make it undesirable to forward the multicast traffic.The PAR 
can… ==> that make it undesirable to forward the multicast traffic. The PAR can…

5)      P7: The NAR implements an MLD proxy [RFC4605] providing host-side 
behaviour on behalf of the upstream PAR. ==>  Here, “on behalf of the upstream 
PAR” is little confusing. I suggest to modify to ” towards the upstream PAR.”

6)      P9: In figure 3, FBU has contained the Multicast Option, and thereby 
both PAR and NAR have known the related multicast information. So the question 
is whether it’s necessary to include Multicast Option in the HI message here? 

Best Regards,
Shuai

>Abstract:
>   Fast handover protocols for MIPv6 and PMIPv6 define mobility
>   management procedures that support unicast communication at reduced
>   handover latency.  Fast handover base operations do not affect
>   multicast communication, and hence do not accelerate handover
>   management for native multicast listeners.  Many multicast
>   applications like IPTV or conferencing, though, are comprised of
>   delay-sensitive real-time traffic and will benefit from fast handover
>   execution.  This document specifies extension of the Mobile IPv6 Fast
>   Handovers (FMIPv6) and the Fast Handovers for Proxy Mobile IPv6
>   (PFMIPv6) protocols to include multicast traffic management in fast
>   handover operations.  This multicast support is provided first at the
>   control plane by a management of rapid context transfer between
>   access routers, second at the data plane by an optional fast traffic
>   forwarding that may include buffering.
