Technical Summary
 
  This document specifies a new Mobility Header message type that can
  be used between a home agent and mobile node to signal a mobile node
  that it should acquire a new home agent.

Working Group Summary

  This I-D has been presented to the WG and discussed in WG meetings
  several times. There is strong consensus on the need for the message
  extension being specified in this I-D.

Document Quality

  No known implementations of this protocol extension exist at the
  present time. However there is interest by several vendors in
  implementing this extension. All the relevant reviewers have been
  acknowledged. The I-D has not been reviewed by MIB doctors since it
  does not specify a MIB.
