BEET mode combines the benefits of tunnel mode with reduced overhead, making it suitable for applications requiring minimalistic end-to-end tunnels, mobility support, and multi-address multi-homing capabilities. The introduction of the USE_BEET_MODE Notify Message enables the negotiation and establishment of BEET mode security associations.
