Multihoming technology improves the availability of host and network
connectivity.  Since the behaviors of fixed and mobile networks
differ, distinct architectures for each have been discussed and
proposed.  This document proposes a common architecture for both
mobile and fixed networking environments, using mobile IP (RFC 3775)
and Network Mobility (NEMO; RFC 3963).  The proposed architecture
requires a modification of mobile IP and NEMO so that multiple Care-of
Addresses (CoAs) can be used.  In addition, multiple Home Agents (HAs)
that are located in different places are required for redundancy.  This 
memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community.
