Keisuke Sakitani writes: I'd like to know how a HA should behave when it receives MPS form an MN on home link by any chance. ----- Vijay Devarapalli responds to Keisuke Sakitani: Just drop it. I would consider it a bug in the MN implementation, if the MN sends a MPS from home link. ----- Brian Haley writes: Section 6.7 says a Home Address Option MUST be included (from the MN) and 10.6.3 says the HA MUST use a Type 2 routing header. These two imply that a HA will only respond to an MPS for a MN that it is the HA for, since in other cases it can't meet these requirements. So yes, I think the HA should drop the request as well.
