This document addresses those requirements for IP spatial location
protocol that emerges from the situation where mobile hosts (MH) use
location information in the inter-domain mobility management. While IP
spatial location protocol has many other usage cases, this document
focuses on the requirements for mobile IP device that needs to know the
whereabouts of IP subnetwork to be visited in order to prepare for
handoff. Three inter-technology handoff (ITHO) scenarios and the related
problems are presented, and the requirements for the system
architecture, terminal and IP spatial location protocol are outlined.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
