The network providing the same type of service to any mobile host and any application running on the host yields inefficiencies. This document describes a solution for taking the application needs into account in selectively providing IP session continuity and IP address reachability on a per- socket basis. @@ -30,21 +30,21 @@ Internet-Drafts are working documents of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).
