	Title		: Low latency Handoffs in Mobile IPv4

Mobile IPv4 describes how a Mobile Node can perform IP-layer handoffs
between subnets served by different Foreign Agents. In certain cases,
the latency involved in these handoffs can be above the threshold
required for the support of delay-sensitive or real-time services.
The aim of this document is to present two methods to achieve low-
latency Mobile IP handoffs. In addition, a combination of these two
methods is described. The described techniques allow greater support
for real-time services on a Mobile IPv4 network by minimising the
period of time when a Mobile Node is unable to send or receive IP
packets due to the delay in the Mobile IP Registration process.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
