Hi, the last sentence leaves place to an interpretation like: do host
mobility with Mobile IP and network mobility with something else that
is not Mobile IP. Was this the intended meaning?

Another interpretation of the above would be that future architectures
would intrinsically support networks that move around and there'll be
no need to enhance tunnels/source routing à la Mobile IP in order to
support these movememnts. Was this the intended meaning?

Thanks for any info,

Alex
