There are a large number of IP access networks where one may wish to
provide security for end user traffic, or secure the access network
from unauthorized traffic. One protocol which may be used to
provide these services is IPSec, which requires a node to establish
a security association with the access network in order to obtain
these services. Traditionally, such an association is considered
static, however, there are many situations in which the ability to
move an IPSec security association (SA) from one security gateway
(SG) to another within the access network may be beneficial.
Examples of this include IPSec handover in mobile LANs and PANs,
load-balancing between IPSec SGs, and fail-over applications where
high-availability is required.

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.
