Transport layer mobility management is presented in addition to
Mobile IP for providing seamless mobility in the Internet.  By use of
SCTP (Stream Control Transmission Protocol) and some of its currently
proposed extensions a seamless handover can be fully accomplished in
the mobile client without any provisions in the network, only
assisted by functions embedded in Mobile SCTP enabled servers.

Client mobility management based on Mobile SCTP seems not to require
any new protocol development.  It is a particular application of SCTP
eventually solving the requirements of transport layer mobility in
the Internet.

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.

implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
