This document specifies a set of questions that authors should be prepared
to answer as part of a solution to multihoming with IPv6. The questions do
not assume that multihoming is the only problem of interest, nor do they
demand a more general solution either.
This document lists security threats related to IPv6 multihoming.
Multihoming can introduce new opportunities to redirect packets to
different, unintended IP addresses. The intent is to look at how IPv6
multihoming solutions might make the Internet less secure than the current
Internet, without studying any proposed solution but instead looking at
threats that are inherent in the problem itself. The threats in this
document build upon the threats discovered and discussed as part of the
Mobile IPv6 work.
