Mobile IPv6 describes how a mobile node can change its point of
attachment from one access router to another (this process is
referred to as Handoff). During this process, there could be a time
period during which the mobile node is unable to send or receive
IPv6 packets. This time period is referred to as handoff latency. In
certain scenarios, the handoff latency resulting due to procedures
described in Mobile IP v6 could be greater than what is acceptable to
support real-time or delay sensitive traffic.

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.
