This draft is a work item of the Site Multihoming by IPv6 Intermediation 
Working Group of the IETF.

        Title           : Failure Detection and Locator Pair Exploration 
Protocol for IPv6 Multihoming
        Author(s)       : J. Arkko, I. van Beijnum
        Filename        : draft-ietf-shim6-failure-detection-03.txt,.pdf

This document defines a mechanism for the detection of communication
   failures between two communicating hosts at IP layer, and an
   exploration protocol for switching to another pair of interfaces
   and/or addresses between the same hosts if a working pair can be
   found.  The draft also discusses the roles of a multihoming protocol
   versus network attachment functions at IP and link layers.

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.
