      <abstract>
	 <t>This document includes an analysis of multiple interfaces in a host
and a description of scenarios of multiple interfaces with the
respect of the relationship between layer 2 connection and layer 3
connection.  The current TCP/IP mechanism and networking methods are
suitable for single network interface.  When a host has multiple
interfaces, the current TCP/IP mechanism and networking methods
cannot directly be used for them.  A network interface establishes
layer 2 connection to layer 2 entity (e.g., WLAN Access Point) and it
does not mean providing proper layer 3 connection.  So every active
network interfaces do not guarantee successful IP layer operations.
In this document, we describe some problems for a host which has
multiple interfaces as an aspect of host&#x27;s operations and usage
scenarios of multiple interfaces in a host.
