//
// Holds the Binding Cache of a home agent or correspondent node (RFC 3775): the
// bindings registered by mobile nodes, mapping each mobile node's home address to
// its current care-of address, together with the sequence number and binding
// lifetime. A home agent uses it to intercept and tunnel traffic to a mobile node
// that is away from home; a correspondent node uses it for route optimization
// (sending directly to the care-of address). It also keeps the return-routability
// nonces used to validate Binding Updates.
//
// This is a passive data-store module (no gates); it is read and updated by the
// ~Mipv6 protocol engine through C++ method calls.
//
// @see ~Mipv6, ~BindingUpdateList
