IPv4 Traffic Offload Selector Option for Proxy Mobile IPv6
Abstract
This specification defines a new mobility option, the IPv4 Traffic
Offload Selector option, for Proxy Mobile IPv6. This option can be
used by the local mobility anchor and the mobile access gateway for
negotiating IPv4 traffic offload policy for a mobility session.
Based on the negotiated IPv4 traffic offload policy, a mobile access
gateway can selectively offload some of the IPv4 traffic flows in the
access network instead of tunneling back to the local mobility anchor
in the home network.

1. Introduction
Mobile operators are expanding their network coverage by integrating
various access technology domains (e.g., Wireless LAN, CDMA, and
Long-Term Evolution (LTE)) into a common IP mobility core. The Third
Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) S2a Proxy Mobile IPv6 [TS23402]
reference point, specified by the 3GPP system architecture, defines
the protocol interworking for building such integrated multi-access
networks. In this scenario, the mobile node's IP traffic is always
tunneled back from the mobile access gateway [RFC5213] in the access
network to the local mobility anchor in the home network. Currently,
there is no mechanism for allowing some of the subscriber's IP flows
to be offloaded in the access network.
