Technical Summary
This specification defines extensions to the Proxy Mobile IPv6
protocol for allowing a mobile access gateway to register more than
one proxy care-of-address with the local mobility anchor and to
simultaneously establish multiple IP tunnels with the local mobility
anchor. This capability allows the mobile access gateway to utilize
all the available access networks for routing mobile node's IP
traffic.
