In particular, the target access router (TAR) should be known to have the appropriate set of capabilities necessary to meet the requirements of the mobile node. Although the TAR selection process occurs at or near the time of handover, applicable candidate access routers (CARs) can be identified in advance. In this draft, we propose a dynamic, distributed protocol, dyCARD, which allows geographically adjacent routers to exchange capability information, thus providing critical information to the target selection process.}, }
