A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Site Multihoming in IPv6 Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Hash Based Addresses (HBA)
	Author(s)	: M. Bagnulo
	Filename	: draft-ietf-multi6-hba-00.txt
	Pages		: 26
	Date		: 2004-12-27
	
This memo describes a mechanism to provide a secure binding between
   the multiple addresses with different prefixes available to a host
   within a multihomed site.  The main idea is that information about
   the multiple prefixes is included within the addresses themselves.
   This is achieved by generating the interface identifiers of the
   addresses of a host as hashes of the available prefixes and a random
   number.  Then, the multiple addresses are generated by prepending the
   different prefixes to the generated interface identifiers.  The
   result is a set of addresses, called Hash Based Addresses (HBAs),
   that are inherently bound.

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.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
