>DESCRIPTION:
>
>IP mobility support for IPv4 nodes (hosts and routers) is specified in
>RFC3344. RFC 3344 mobility allows a node to continue using its
>"permanent" home address as it moves around the internet. The Mobile IP
>protocols support transparency above the IP layer, including maintenance
>of active TCP connections and UDP port bindings. Besides the basic
>Mobile IPv4 (MIPv4) protocols, several other drafts deal with concerns
>such as optimization, security, extensions, AAA support, and deployment
>issues.
>
>Mobile IPv4 is currently being deployed on a wide basis (e.g., in
>cdma2000 networks). The scope of the deployment is on a fairly large
>scale and accordingly, the MIP4 WG will focus on deployment issues and
>on addressing known deficiencies and shortcomings in the protocol that
>have come up as a result of deployment experience. Specifically, the
>working group will complete the work items to facilitate interactions
>with AAA environments, interactions with enterprise environments when
>Mobile IPv4 is used therein, and updating existing protocol
>specifications in accordance with deployment needs and advancing those
>protocols that are on the standards track.
>
>Work expected to be done by the MIP4 WG as proposed by this charter is
>as follows:
>
>
>1. MIPv4 has been a proposed standard for several years. It has been
>adopted by other standard development organizations and has been
>deployed commercially. One of the next steps for the WG is to advance
>the protocol to draft standard status. As part of advancing base Mobile
>IP specs to DS, the Mobile IPv4 NAI RFC (2794) will be revised to
>reflect implementation experience.
>
>2. Work items that are pending from the previous Mobile IP WG, which
>will be completed by the MIP4 WG, are:
>
>- completion of the MIB for the revised base Mobile IP specification
>(2006bis)
>
>- regional registration draft.
>
>3. The MIP4 WG will also complete the work on Mobile IPv4 interactions
>in VPN scenarios. This work will involve identifying the requirements
>and a solution development for Mobile IPv4 operation in the presence of
>IPsec VPNs.
>
>4. Additionally, a proposal has been made for how MOBIKE could work
>together with MIPv4. This proposal does not describe any new protocol,
>but formulates a best current practice for deploying MOBIKE together
>with MIPv4. The working group will adopt and complete this document.
>
>5. Some issues have been raised with respect to RFC3519. These will be
>identified and addressed as appropriate, through errata, revision of RFC
>3519, and/or supplemental documents as needed.
>
>6. It has been proposed that the FMIP protocol, which has been
>standardised for MIPv6 in the MIPSHOP working group, should also be
>published as an experimental protocol for MIPv4. A draft for this
>exists. The working group will take up and carry this work forward to
>publication
>
>7. An extension to carry generic strings in the Registration Reply
>message has been proposed. The purpose is to supply supplemental
>human-readable information intended to the MN user. The working group
>will complete the specification and applicability statement of such an
>extension.
>
>8. RADIUS attributes for Mobile IP v4. A set of RADIUS attributes has
>been proposed for MIPv4. The working group will complete the
>specification of what is needed by MIPv4 in this respect, solicit
>feedback from the Radius Extensions WG, adjust, and submit this for
>publication. The set of attributes should as much as feasible match what
>is specified in the Diameter Mobile IPv4 Application document.
>
>9. MIPv4 Extension for Configuration Options. Several drafts have
>proposed extensions to help improve configuration of MIPv4 clients.
>The latest proposal is for a general configuration option extension,
>which could carry information such as e.g., DNS address and DHCP server
>address. The working group will take on and complete one proposal for a
>configuration option extension.
