At what cost. I believe right now the cost (engineering/product costs)
to support BIA is not worth the gain today.
DSMT has hardly any machinery?
What machinery? Its all on the client anyway?
Simply a matter of configuring the tunnel and then its a done deal once
the address is acquired all standard and existing call out code on any
IP node (v6 or v4). This is not the case of BIA.
