A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the DNS Extensions Working Group of the IETF.
Title : A DNS RR for Encoding DHCP Information (DHCID RR)
Author(s) : M. Stapp, et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-dnsext-dhcid-rr-11.txt
Pages : 10
Date : 2006-2-24
It is possible for DHCP clients to attempt to update the same DNS
FQDN or attempt to update a DNS FQDN that has been added to the DNS
for another purpose as they obtain DHCP leases. Whether the DHCP
server or the clients themselves perform the DNS updates, conflicts
can arise. To resolve such conflicts, "Resolution of DNS Name
Conflicts" [1] proposes storing client identifiers in the DNS to
unambiguously associate domain names with the DHCP clients to which
they refer. This memo defines a distinct RR type for this purpose
for use by DHCP clients and servers, the "DHCID" RR.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dnsext-dhcid-rr-11.txt".
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
Internet-Draft.
