Overview This draft is about “use cases” analysis of the DMM on-demand mobility WG draft In addition, an API proposed to address a gap from the analysis

Issue #1 “Acquiring a new session-lasting IP address may take some time (due to the exchange with the network) while using an existing one is instantaneous On the other hand, using the existing one might yield less optimal routing” Might not be preferred by newly initiated applications
Issue #2 FRC 3484, “Default Address Selection for IPv6” For example, Rule 8: Use longest matching prefix. If CommonPrefixLen (SA, D) > CommonPrefixLen(SB, D), then prefer SA. This may also lead a undesired behavior in the source IP address selection
ON_NET property IPV6_XX_SRC_ON_NET /* Require (or Prefer) an IP address based on a requested IP address type as source, assigned from the current serving network, whatever it has been assigned or should be assigned */
