Title : Requirements for CAR Discovery Protocols
Author(s) : G. Krishnamurthi

The pre-requisite for IP based seamless mobility protocols is the
knowledge of the access router (AR) to which a mobile node can be
handed over to. Further, a handoff can be optimized if the capabilities
of the AR being considered for handoff are known. The protocol which
discovers ARs for potential handoff along with their capabilities is
called the CAR discovery protocol. In this draft we list the
requirements which are to be met by any solution for CAR Discovery.

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.
