This draft is a work item of the IP Version 6 Working Group Working Group of the IETF.
Title : IPv6 for Some Second and Third Generation Cellular
Host
Author(s) : J. Arkko et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-ipv6-cellular-host-02.txt
Pages : 20
Date : 17-May-02
As the deployment of second and third generation cellular networks
progresses, a large number of cellular hosts are being connected to
the Internet. Standardization organizations are making IPv6
mandatory in their specifications. However, the concept of IPv6
covers many aspects and numerous specifications. In addition, the
characteristics of cellular links in terms of bandwidth, cost and
delay put special requirements on how IPv6 is used. This document
considers IPv6 for cellular hosts that attach to the General Packet
Radio Service (GPRS), or Universal Mobile Telecommunications System
(UMTS) networks. The document lists basic components of IPv6
functionality and discusses some issues relating to the use of these
components when operating in these networks.

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.
