Reach node responsible for a client using a special IP #25

Closed tcatm closed 8 years ago

tcatm commented 8 years ago

Nodes could generate a special IP address generated using a clients MAC address (like: PREFIX::MAC), announce a local route and assign this address to lo. A node claiming a client would first look for a route to this special IP address and if it is present contact the node previously serving the client using this address to initiate a smooth handover.

Maybe use fec0::/10?
