This note attempts to describe how to apply the MIPv6 protocol to
provide fault tolerance to transport layer connections established
between a multi-homed host and other hosts in the Internet.
Specifically, this note addresses the usage of MIPv6 signaling
messages to convey information about alternative address to be used
when an outage occurs. Additionally, possible mechanisms to detect
failures affecting the currently used path are explored.

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.
