Internet-Draft     Context Transfer for DMM Multicast         March 2013

1.  Introduction

   This document describes an application of various existing approaches
   for Distributed Mobility Management (DMM) [15] to support overarching
   IP multicast services with Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) [3] and Client
   Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) [2], respectively.  Key concept of Distributed
   Mobility Management (DMM) in a flat network architecture where core
   entities and functionalities are deployed in a distributed manner
   assumes a mobile node to use the first access router (AR) it attaches
   to as principal mobility anchor, i.e.  Home Agent (HA) in MIPv6 or
