Hi all, On the issue of fast inter-domain handoff, does anybody come across the idea that the new Gateway Foreign Agent (GFA) sometimes sends a home registration request from the MN to the old GFA instead of the HA (depending on an algorithm to decide where to send)? In this case, how can the old GFA process the registration request and generates a proper registration reply which is acceptable to the MN? I believe the old GFA must understand the Security Association (SA) between the MN and the HA to do so. However, there are still no good ways to securely disclose/distribute a SA to a third party at the moment. Any comments? Thanks, Jee
