Although anycast communication supports service-oriented addresses many of its current definitions in IPv6 are unclear. Furthermore, since there are no protocol standards or even consensus on routing control, inter-segment anycast communications are not yet available. This paper first discusses these problems and solutions. Based on the findings, the Anycast Address Resolving Protocol (AARP) to establish TCP connections with a specific anycast address and propose a routing protocol for inter-segment anycasts is presented.
