Hi DMMers, I read draft-sijeon-dmm-use-cases-api-source-04 and I have a few comments:
Applications such as a text-based web browsing or information-centric service, e.g. weather and stock information, as well as legacy applications may belong to this category. As many applications require short-lived Internet connection without session continuity and IP address reachability,
These are _interactive_ web browsing applications - both the text-based such as lynx, and graphics-based such as firefox browsers, are interactive and needs a short-lived Internet connection, such as a short-lived TCP socket (user clicks, socket opens, retrieve page through that socket, socket closes, then user clicks again - that's interactivity). It is little qualified to call them 'text-based'. The same with 'information-centric' - there should be a better term for that. It is typically data that is 'consumed' by the human user (as opposed to POSTing data, and as opposed to consumption by machines). It would be better to talk about such consuming, rather than 'information-centric' which may make think of ICN: information-centric networking.
The suggested flag, IPV6_REQUIRE_NON-PERSISTENT_IP, defined in [I-D.ietf-dmm-ondemand-mobility] is used for expressing its preference to the IP stack.
This is a parameter to which function? To socket ()? ioctl ()? Is there a brief example of 5 lines of C code about how to call it? Alex _______________________________________________ dmm mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dmm
