	Title		: DHCPv6 Remote Boot Options

This document describes a means by which to support network boot of a 
   bare-metal platform utilizing a pre-boot execution environment, such 
   as the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface [UEFI22].   The problem 
   being addressed is that the PXE [PXE21] and UEFI Specifications 
   [UEFI22] only describe how to ascertain boot configuration options 
   using DHCPv4 [RFC2131], not for DHCPv6 [RFC3315].  Similarly, iSCSI 
   boot [RFC4173] does not specify how to discover boot device 
   information in an DHCPv6 environment.   This document will describe    how to ascertain this boot information in an IPv6 environment 
   utilizing options in the DHCPv6 hand-off [RFC3315].
