DESCRIPTION:This talk describes one way to evolve IPv6 to support an\nIden
 tifier/Locator network architecture in a backwards compatible way.  This h
 as benefits for the inter-domain routing table\, site and node multi-homin
 g\, mobile networks\, and mobile nodes. This research effort started sever
 al years ago and is well along now\, so the presenter is also coding up a 
 proof-of-concept implementation in FreeBSD in his (not very) copious spare
  time.\n\nShort Bio: Ran Atkinson is currently Chief Scientist for switch/
 router vendor Extreme Networks.  Prior to Extreme\, he was in network engi
 neering management for a multi-continent (Europe\, North America\, Austral
 ia\, Japan) residential broadband ISP. He was the original IPv6 developmen
 t team for Cisco IOS. He also led the NRL team with the world's first impl
 ementations of IPv6 and IP Security (in 4.4 BSD). He has been involved in 
 Internet standards activities for about 20 years\, initially working on in
 ternationalisation of electronic mail. He is probably best known as the or
 iginal author of the IP Security protocols\, ESP and AH\, though he denies
  any knowledge of security.  He has chaired several IETF Working Groups an
 d served on the Internet Architecture Board from 1999 to 2003.\n\nThis cur
 rent talk relates in part to his involvement in the IRTF Namespace Researc
 h Group from 1999 into this decade and his current involvement with the IR
 TF Routing Research Group.\n
