Hi Ryuji,

The IPv6 HoA option is optional and need not be present.

right



Note that RFC3775 does not mandate the lifetime is set to
zero for BU deregistration.
How can HA distinguishes this two BU?

There is another home address in the BU from my draft, the IPv4 HoA, and since this home address is different from the care-of address in the BU, the HA goes ahead and creates/updates the binding. This is regular HA logic,
with the difference that this time the home address is the v4 address.

MN can always send the proposed BU from any link (not only from home link) and registers IPv4 binding only.

What happened if HA receives this BU?

            IPv4 header (src=V4ADDR, dst=HA_V4ADDR)
                UDP Header
       IPv6 Header (src = v6HoA, dst = v6HA)
       ESP Header
       Mobility Header
           type = 5 (Binding Update)
           lifetime non-zero
           Alternate Care-of Address option (v6HoA)
           IPv4 Home Address option (v4HoA)


Will HA register V4ADDR or V6HoA, or both?

As Vijay told, some bit or mobility option is required to
identify your BU more precisely.

If people are uncomfortable with the original proposal, I would be fine to
add a more explicit indication. Though I'm not convinced that this is
strictly neccessary.

Hi Domagoj,

The proposed format is very similar to the BU de-registration format.
This is the BU format described in the draft.

       IPv6 Header (src = v6HoA, dst = v6HA)
       ESP Header
       Mobility Header
           type = 5 (Binding Update)
           lifetime non-zero
           Alternate Care-of Address option (v6HoA)
           IPv4 Home Address option (v4HoA)

This is an example format of the Binding De-registration format

       IPv6 Header (src = v6HoA, dst = v6HA)
   IPv6 HoA option (V6HoA)
       ESP Header
       Mobility Header
           type = 5 (Binding Update)
	   flag = H + A bit
           lifetime non-zero
            Alternate Care-of Address option (v6HoA)

zero for BU deregistration.
