Mobile Node Identifier Option for Mobile IPv6
RFC 4283, “Mobile Node Identifier Option for Mobile IPv6”, is a Proposed Standard document published in December 2005 by A. Patel, K. Leung, M. Khalil, H. Akhtar, K. Chowdhury. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) defines a new Mobility header that is used by mobile nodes, correspondent nodes, and home agents in all messaging related to the creation and management of bindings. Mobile IPv6 nodes need the capability to identify themselves using an identity other than the default home IP address. Some examples of identifiers include Network Access Identifier (NAI), Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN), International Mobile Station Identifier (IMSI), and Mobile Subscriber Number (MSISDN). This document defines a new mobility option that can be used by Mobile IPv6 entities to identify themselves in messages containing a mobility header. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
