pmipv4 of WiMAX forum (Re: [Mip4] Question about draft-leung-mip4-proxy-mode)

[Jun AWANO <j-awano at az.jp.nec.com>]

Hi, kent

Please let me ask about your draft.

Your draft says,
"This document describes WiMAX Forum and 3GPP2 solution
 for the base Proxy Mobile IPv4 function which enables
 another entity to provide mobility support on behalf of
 an unaltered and mobility-unaware IPv4 device."

But, I think that the PMIPv4 described in your draft seems
different from the one specified in WiMAX Forum spec
(WiMAX Forum Network Architechture stage2/3).

Do you plan to change the PMIPv4 spec of WiMAX Forum to
match your draft?

Best Regards,
Jun
