Calhoun Sun Microsystems, Inc. Generalized NAI Extension (GNAIE) Status of this Memo This document is a submission by the mobile-ip Working Group of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). Comments should be submitted to the MOBILE-IP@STANDARDS.NORTELNETWORKS.COM mailing list. Distribution of this memo is unlimited. This document is an Internet-Draft and is in full conformance with all provisions of Section 10 of RFC2026. Internet-Drafts are working documents of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), its areas, and its working groups. Note that other groups may also distribute working documents as Internet-Drafts. Internet-Drafts are draft documents valid for a maximum of six months and may be updated, replaced, or obsoleted by other documents at any time. It is inappropriate to use Internet-Drafts as reference material or to cite them other than as "work in progress."

Abstract The Mobile IP Extensions Rationalization (MIER) specification defines a new extension header format, that is intended to extend the Mobile IP extension address space. This document defines the Generalized Network Access Identifier (NAI) extension, which SHOULD be used by any Mobile IP extension specifying an extension containing an NAI.
