Mobile IPv6 has been standardized at IETF and % almost ready to deploy on the Internet. However, handover technology % of Mobile IPv6 is still under development. Since Mobile % IPv6 does not specify optimized handover mechanism, it takes certain % period to complete handover. In this paper, we investigate a mechanism % to minimize handover latency without any modification to Mobile % IPv6. We take position that a mobile node will utilize multiple % interfaces to achieve smooth handover. With multiple interfaces, the % Internet access can be continued even while Mobile IPv6's movement is % proceeded. SCTP is a transport protocol capable of handling % multiple addresses for each session. A mobile node uses a home address % as a primary address and another available address as a secondary % address. The SCTP fails over to the secondary address while the % primary address (i.e. home address) is inactive during handover. The % advantage of this proposal is that it required modification to neither % Mobile IPv6 and SCTP. % ]
