Babel is a loop-free distance vector routing protocol that is robust
   and efficient both in ordinary wired networks and in wireless mesh
   networks.

I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-ipsecme-traffic-visibility-02.txt

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories.
This draft is a work item of the IP Security Maintenance and Extensions Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Wrapped ESP for Traffic Visibility
	Author(s)	: M. Bhatia, K. Grewal, G. Montenegro
	Filename	: draft-ietf-ipsecme-traffic-visibility-02.txt
	Pages		: 12
	Date		: 2009-4-30
	
This document describes the Wrapped Encapsulating Security 
   Payload (WESP) protocol, which builds on top of ESP [RFC4303] 
   and is designed to allow intermediate devices to ascertain if 
   ESP-NULL is being employed and hence inspect the IPsec packets 
   for network monitoring and access control functions.  Currently 
   in the IPsec standard, there is no way to differentiate between 
   ESP encryption and ESP NULL encryption by simply examining a 
   packet. This poses certain challenges to the intermediate 
   devices that need to deep inspect the packet before making a 
   decision on what should be done with that packet (Inspect and/or 
   Allow/Drop). The mechanism described in this document can be 
   used to easily disambiguate ESP-NULL from ESP encrypted packets, 
   without compromising on the security provided by ESP.

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

	Title           : Multiprotocol Label Switching Transport Profile Ring Protection Analysis
	Author(s)       : J. Yang, H. Su
	Filename        : draft-yang-mpls-tp-ring-protection-analysis-01.txt
	Pages           : 11
	Date            : 2009-04-30

The three potential solutions to the MPLS-TP ring protection were
addressed in the report of the IETF-ITU-T Joint Working Team(JWT).
Each solution has different attributes and advantages.  This document
provides an analysis for MPLS-TP based on the ring protection.

I-D Action:draft-ietf-mipshop-pfmipv6-04.txt

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Mobility for IP: Performance, Signaling and Handoff Optimization Working
Group of the IETF.

	Title           : Fast Handovers for Proxy Mobile IPv6
	Author(s)       : H. Yokota, et al.
	Filename        : draft-ietf-mipshop-pfmipv6-04.txt
	Pages           : 33
	Date            : 2009-05-01

Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) [RFC3775] provides a mobile node with IP mobility
when it performs a handover from one access router to another and
fast handovers for Mobile IPv6 (FMIPv6) [RFC5268bis] are specified to
enhance the handover performance in terms of latency and packet loss.
While MIPv6 (and FMIPv6 as well) requires the participation of the
mobile node in the mobility-related signaling, Proxy Mobile IPv6
(PMIPv6) [RFC5213] provides IP mobility to mobile nodes that either
have or do not have MIPv6 functionality without such involvement.
Nevertheless, the basic performance of PMIPv6 in terms of handover
latency and packet loss is considered not any different from that of
MIPv6.  When the fast handover is considered in such an environment,
several modifications are needed to FMIPv6 to adapt to the network-
based mobility management.  This document specifies the usage of Fast
Mobile IPv6 (FMIPv6) when Proxy Mobile IPv6 is used as the mobility
management protocol.  Necessary extensions are specified for FMIPv6
to support the scenario when the mobile node does not have IP
mobility functionality and hence is not involved with either MIPv6 or
FMIPv6 operations.
