IPv4 Traffic Offload Selector Option for Proxy Mobile IPv6
RFC 6909, “IPv4 Traffic Offload Selector Option for Proxy Mobile IPv6”, is a Proposed Standard document published in April 2013 by S. Gundavelli, X. Zhou, J. Korhonen, G. Feige, R. Koodli. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This specification defines a new mobility option, the IPv4 Traffic Offload Selector option, for Proxy Mobile IPv6. This option can be used by the local mobility anchor and the mobile access gateway for negotiating IPv4 traffic offload policy for a mobility session. Based on the negotiated IPv4 traffic offload policy, a mobile access gateway can selectively offload some of the IPv4 traffic flows in the access network instead of tunneling back to the local mobility anchor in the home network.
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.
