Technical Summary
This document defines a rendezvous extension for the Host Identity
Protocol (HIP). The rendezvous extension extends HIP and the HIP
registration extension for initiating communication between HIP nodes
via HIP rendezvous servers. Rendezvous servers improve reachability
and operation when HIP nodes are multi-homed or mobile. This
document obsoletes RFC5204.
Workgroup Summary
There was WG consensus behind this document.
Document Quality:
As discussed in RFC 6538, there are several implementations of the
Experimental HIP specs. At least HIP for Linux and OpenHIP will be
updated to comply with the standards-track specs.
