RE: [MIP-QOS] Requirements.





I request a few requirements:

1. The QoS information about an IP flow is maintained in a context.
2. The context is attached to an AR, which is associated with a MN.
3. When MN handoffs to a different AR, attempt is made to transfer context
seamlessly.
4. If seamless transfer occurs, then ok.
5. If seamless transfer doesn't occur, negotiate QoS parameters with target
AR.
6. Handover to target AR occur.

Note that the QoS information about an IP flow is maintained in a context,
and is
transferred to a new AR during context transfer.



Now, it can be argued that the SEAMOBY group is dealing with "context
transfer". 
This is correct


, they will ultimately develop a protocol for context transfer. 

This is implicit when the context transfers happen above.
