Hi,

We've published a new draft on extention to SCTP ASCONF chunk
to transfer multiple ASCONFs packed together.

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-marushin-sctp-asconfext-00.txt

This draft better supports reliable handover especially when the
endhost is once disconnected or when the network is dual stacked.
(described in detail in the draft)

On such situations , the current ADD-IP draft may fail to transit,
and the association goes into CLOSED state.
This draft supports such situations, and the SCTP association will
be more reliable.

Feedbacks from the working group is highly appreciated.

Best regards, 
Marushin

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.

	Title		: Stream Control Transmission Protocol(SCTP) Cumulative ASCONF chunk transmission extension

	Author(s)	: S. Maruyama, M. Kozuka
	Filename	: draft-marushin-sctp-asconfext-00.txt
	Pages		: 13
	Date		: 2006-6-20
	
This document describes extensions to the Stream Control Transmission
Protocol(SCTP) [RFC2960] and the "Dynamic Address Reconfiguration"
[draft-ietf-tsvwg-addip-sctp].  In this proposal, we propose changes to the way ASCONF's are handled and bundled to allow multiple
ASCONF's to be sent during times of disconnected connectivity.  This then allows a method which allows the retransmit of multiple
ASCONF chunk within a single packet to better support reliable handover.

	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with

	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
