In my opinion, the DMM solution should reduce or eliminate the need for centralized mobility management protocols. So, I am not sure what it would mean for DMM to be compatible with them. It may be a substitute for them in many cases.
Also, on the question of impact to the MN: I thought it was generally agreed that we would allow for optimizations that take into account the fact that some applications and mobile nodes do not need IP address transparency throughout the lifetime of their packet data session. I would hope that we can take advantage of the presence of such mobile nodes, which might have special software in them to deal with IP address transition issues. -Pete [email protected] wrote: > > Hi Tricci: > > Thank you for reminding us such an important aspect, the > compatibility is a very important feature for the DMM of course.
