Mobility Practices and DMM Gap Analysis
draft-zuniga-dmm-gap-analysis-03
Abstract
This document describes practices for the deployment of existing
mobility protocols in a distributed mobility management (DMM)
environment, and identifies the limitations in the current practices
with respect to providing the expected DMM functionality.
The practices description and gap analysis are performed for IP-based
mobility protocols, dividing them into three main families: IP
client-based, IP network-based, and 3GPP mobility solutions.
