Questions on the Draft



With the exception of a few "why are we here?" emails, this list has
been pretty dead.

Here's a couple of questions that came up when I was reading the draft.

1) pg. 6 What is meant by "hierarchical mobility management"? Is this
like BGP routing hierarchies, or using OSPF for a local routing domain
and BGP on the Internet? I'm having trouble fitting this into mobile
IP,  but perhaps it doesn't fit.

2) pg. 7 The Auth/Auth sections seem to be getting at single sign on.
Is that what's wanted? 

3) pg. 7 The Accounting section doesn't mention either of the two
accounting protocols, Radius or Diameter. Since this document is
meant to be foward looking, probably Diameter should be favored.

4) pg. 8 Do you want to be able to charge on packet content? This
could result in *very* slow performance in some cases, if you
need to snoop through to L4 to determine the port number.
