The IESG has approved the following document: - 'DHCPv6 Relay Agent Subscriber-ID Option ' <draft-ietf-dhc-dhcpv6-subid-01.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Margaret Wasserman and Mark Townsley. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dhc-dhcpv6-subid-01.txt Technical Summary This memo defines a new Relay Agent Subscriber-ID option for the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6). The option allows a DHCPv6 relay agent to associate a stable "Subscriber-ID" with DHCPv6 client messages in a way that is independent of the client and of the underlying physical network infrastructure.mary Working Group Summary This document is the work of the DHC WG. The WG has consensus to publish this document as a Proposed Standard. Protocol Quality This document was reviewed for the IESG by Margaret Wasserman. Note to RFC Editor DROP: 2. Requirements Terminology The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [2]. --- DROP: Reference [2] to RFC 2119. --- OLD (in Section 3): However, as the DHCPv4 Subscriber-ID suboption [4] specifies NVT ASCII [5] encoded data, in environments where both DHCPv4 [6] and DHCPv6 are being used, it MAY be beneficial to use that encoding. NEW: However, as the DHCPv4 Subscriber-ID suboption [4] specifies NVT ASCII [5] encoded data, in environments where both DHCPv4 [6] and DHCPv6 are being used, it may be beneficial to use that encoding. ^^^ --- OLD (in Section 4): DHCPv6 relay agents MAY be configured to include a Subscriber-ID option in relayed (RELAY-FORW) DHCPv6 messages. How the subscriber-id is assigned and the mechanisms used to configure it are outside the scope of this memo. NEW: DHCPv6 relay agents may be configured to include a Subscriber-ID ^^^ option in relayed (RELAY-FORW) DHCPv6 messages. How the subscriber-id is assigned and the mechanisms used to configure it are outside the scope of this memo. --- OLD (in Section 5): This option provides additional information to the DHCPv6 server. The DHCPv6 server MAY use this information, if available, in addition to other relay agent option data, other options included in the NEW: This option provides additional information to the DHCPv6 server.
