Routing and Discovery
Several key points identified:
What criteria must be used in the discovery process
What identifier spaces to express these criteria in
How to include capability aspects
Linkage to other common protocol functions
The ‘what criteria’ question interacts with the question of what discovery/capability negotiation takes place within the MIH service itself
E.g. who selects between ES/IS/CS, how service version number selection takes place
Defines some major architectural options
Full MN control
Discovery details delegated to the network
Discovery of adjacent peer or full path
Issues for each: deployability, topology hiding, timing w.r.t. network attachment, operation in mixed L2/L3 environment
Discusses some options and their issues
SLP, DNS SRV, mDNS, DHCP, RA
Current status: this is still the major unclear issue
Ad hoc discussions this week, we will try to capture and write them up
