PMIPv6 Localized Routing Problem Statement

Proxy Mobile IPv6 is the IETF standard for network-based localized mobility management. In Proxy Mobile IPv6, mobile nodes are topologically anchored at a Local Mobility Anchor, which forwards all data for registered mobile nodes. The set up and support for localized routing, which allows forwarding of data packets between mobile nodes and correspondent nodes directly without traversing an LMA, is not considered. This document describes the problem space of localized routing in Proxy Mobile IPv6.
