multihomed host



Hi,

I have one question about multihomed host.

In the multi6 WG charter, there is the following definition 
for multihomed "site":

  A multihomed site is a site that has more than one connection to the
  public internet with those connections through either the same or
  different ISPs.  Sites choose to multihome for several reasons,
  especially to improve fault tolerence, perform load balancing, etc.

Is there any definition for multihomed "host"?  

Of cource, a definition would be quickly made by just replacing a
word "site" in the above definition with "host", but please let me
know if there is other definition.

Regards,
Yoshihiro Ohba
