Jari, Mark and NETLMM Chairs -
 
As a follow-up to our call in late February, WiMAX Forum NWG discussed the two PMIP drafts under consideration in NETLMM. The similarities and differences between the two drafts were debated but discussions were not conclusive in terms of recommending either draft as a down selection candidate. 
 
NWG however reiterates its strong interest in PMIP with the following considerations - 
-                IETF publishes one RFC for PMIPv6 by end of Q3 2007 to facilitate its incorporation in NWG's ongoing Release 1.5 specification efforts.
-                PMIPv6 provides mobile IP functionality for mobile nodes that do not / cannot support client-based mobile IP
-                The solution works both where (a) the PMIP client and HA are it the same administrative domain and (b) in different administrative domains, supporting NWG's requirements for connectivity in home operator network and visited operator network when roaming
-                Addresses essential features such as coexistence with client-based MIPv6, anchoring and relocation of PMIP client with context transfers to enable lossless operation and AAA interactions
-                The protocol should also support IPv4-only mobile nodes
 
Thanks.
