TIA TSB-87-3012

Introduction

This IP and CLNP Routing Architecture and Addressing Plan is intended to provide the architecture, addressing and routing strategies necessary to ensure the successful deployment of the Cellular Digital Packet Data (CDPD) Network.

The Plan is constrained by two main factors: mobility and security.

The CDPD Network could be considered a large Internet, were it not for mobility. To account for this, more sophisticated equipment and routing is necessary. Since this will be the first large-scale network to provide for mobility, there will be challenges. This Part addresses as many of these as possible. In addition, there are suggested areas where further study is needed.
