Re: [netlmm] Is this scenario covered in netlmm-mip-interactions I-D?



Hi Raj,

I think the scenario you are describing is completely a PMIPv6 issue as also pointed out by Sri and not an interaction problem. The assumption for MIPv6 is that LMA is always tunneling the packets. If we want to solve this corner case (do we?), we need to make changes to PMIPv6
