Title : Loose Source Routing for Mobile Hosts

This memo describes an approach to transparent mobile internetworking,
meaning that unchanged hosts can move among networks in a fashion
transparent to protocols above IP, while at the same time providing steady
state optimal routing between either a pair of moving hosts or between a
moving host and a stationary host.
The approach rests upon the existence of a limited set of entities, called
Base Access Stations (BAS) and Mobile Routers (MR) that coordinate
forwarding among mobile hosts (MH).
