Revised paragraph in Section 3.2: Mobility management may be partially or fully distributed. In the former case only the data plane is distributed. Fully distributed mobility management implies that both the data plane and the control plane are distributed. These different approaches are described in detail in [I-D.yokota-dmm-scenario]. While mobility management can be distributed, it is not necessary for other functions to be similarly distributed. For example, a centralized subscription management may co-exist with distributed mobility management.

Here I mean functions like subscriber management, subscription databases and network access authentication. _______________________________________________ dmm mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dmm
