Title : DHCPv6 Relay Agent Information Option
Author(s) : R. Droms, W. Lau
Filename : draft-droms-dhc-v6-relayopt-00.txt
Pages : 13

This document introduces the capabilities of the DHCPv4 Relay Agent
Information Option in RFC 3046 and the corresponding RADIUS-
Attributes Sub-option to DHCPv6. In particular, the document
describes a new DHCPv6 option called the Relay Agent Information
option which extends the set of DHCPv6 options as defined in RFC 3315
and 3376. Following its DHCPv4 counterpart as defined in RFC 3046,
the new option is inserted by the DHCPv6 relay agent when forwarding
client-originated DHCPv6 packets to a DHCPv6 server. Servers
recognizing the Relay Agent Information option may use the
information to implement IP address or other parameter assignment
policies. The DHCP Server echoes the option back verbatim to the
relay agent in server-to-client replies, and the relay agent strips
the option before forwarding the reply to the client. The Relay Agent
Information option is organized as a single DHCPv6 option that
contains one or more "sub-options" that convey information known by
the relay agent. A RADIUS Attributes Sub-option, following its
DHCPv4 counterpart, is also defined.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
