In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

This document captures the issues that may arise in the deployment of IPv6 networks when they support Mobile IPv6 and firewalls.

The goal of this document is to highlight the issues with firewalls and Mobile IPv6 and act as an enabler for further discussion. Issues identified here can be solved by developing appropriate solutions. This memo provides information for the Internet community.
