3. Differences from -02.txt Added another sequence of handover on FMIPv6 –To Appendix.B Renamed the levels of link quality –EXCELLENT, GOOD, FAIR, POOR, N/A Editorial changes Not submitted yet…

4. L2-LinkStatus –Acquisition request for the current link status. L2-PeerList –Acquisition request for the list of possible access points. L2-PeerFound / L2-PeerLost –Indication of discovery/missing of candidate access points. L2-LinkUp / L2-LinkDown –Notification that a new link is up / an connected link is down. L2-LinkToBeDown –Notification that the connected link is about to be down. L2-LinkConnect / L2-LinkDisconnect –Request for connection/disconnection of the specific link. L2 Primitives

14. Interoperability Test TARZAN and ULP(Linux), May 2005 in Japan Confirmed interoperability on possible configurations {Linux-PAR, Linux-NAR, BSD-MN} {Linux-PAR, BSD-NAR, BSD-MN} {BSD-PAR, Linux-NAR, BSD-MN} {BSD-PAR, BSD-NAR, Linux-MN} {BSD-PAR, Linux-NAR, Linux-MN} {Linux-PAR, BSD-NAR, Linux-MN} –No problem on FMIPv6 signaling exchanges There are some unclear points in RFC4068: What we put in the answer for wildcard (PtSolPr, RtPrAdv) Padding specification for MH-LLA option is not specified by FMIPv6 spec itself Whether Code-0 PrRtAdv-s may/should/may not contain multiple tuples

15. Implementation Status –TARZAN Pre-released: htttp://software.nautilus6.org/ Including: L2 trigger (LIES), FMIPv6 implementation Still work in progress –Linux https://wikinet.u-strasbg.fr/~fmipv6/

16. Summary Could apply L2-abstraction/trigger to FMIPv6 stack –Implemented LIES and TARZAN –Handover latency = 8-10ms –Confirmed basic interoperability between TARZAN and ULP TARZAN released! Nautilus6 Project –http://www.nautilus6.org/ Teraoka Lab. KEIO University –http://www.tera.ics.keio.ac.jp/
