本文档定义了Shim6协议，这是一个用于在传输协议下提供定位器灵活性的第3层垫片，以便可以为具有故障转移和负载共享属性的IPv6提供多宿主，而无需假设多宿主站点将具有在全局IPv6路由表中宣布的与提供商无关的IPv6地址前缀。具有多个提供商分配的IPv6地址前缀的站点中的主机将使用本文档中指定的Shim6协议来设置与对等主机的状态，以便该状态稍后可以用于故障转移到不同的定位器对，如果原始定位器对停止工作。
This document defines the Shim6 protocol, a layer 3 shim for providing locator agility below the transport protocols, so that multihoming can be provided for IPv6 with failover and load sharing properties, without assuming that a multihomed site will have a provider independent IPv6 address prefix which is announced in the global IPv6 routing table. The hosts in a site which has multiple provider allocated IPv6 address prefixes, will use the Shim6 protocol specified in this document to setup state with peer hosts, so that the state can later be used to failover to a different locator pair, should the original one stop working.
