3. Mobility EXTensions for IPv6(mext) WG

Mobility EXTensions for IPv6(mext) WG
See
The MEXT Working Group continues the work of the former MIP6, NEMO, and MONAMI6 Working Groups.
The primary goal of MEXT will be to enhance base IPv6 mobility by continuing work on developments that are required for wide-scale deployments and specific deployment scenarios.
Additionally, the working group will ensure that any issues identified by implementation and interoperability experience are addressed, and that the base specifications are maintained.
The group will also produce informational documentation, such as design rationale documents or description of specific issues within the protocol.
The MEXT WG will also explore experimental alternative security mechanisms. The security mechanism specified in the existing standard track RFCs (RFC3775bis, RFC4877) remains the mandatory to implement mechanism that guarantees interoperability between different implementations.
The MEXT WG is chartered to deliver one or more experimental alternative mechanisms. All the alternative solutions will be published as experimental RFCs.
