The Seamoby Candidate Access Router Discovery (CARD) protocol and the
Context Transfer Protocol (CXTP) are experimental protocols designed
to accelerate IP handover between wireless access routers.  These 
protocols require IANA allocations for ICMP type and options, Stream
Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) Payload Protocol Identifiers,
port numbers, and registries for certain formatted message options.
This document contains instructions to IANA about which allocations
are required for the Seamoby protocols.  The ICMP subtype extension
format for Seamoby has been additionally designed so that it can be
utilized by other experimental mobility protocols, and the SCTP port
number is also available for other experimental mobility protocols.
