A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 6422 Title: Relay-Supplied DHCP Options Author: T. Lemon, Q. Wu Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: December 2011 Mailbox: mellon@nominum.com, sunseawq@huawei.com Pages: 8 Characters: 16056 Updates: RFC3315 I-D Tag: draft-ietf-dhc-dhcpv6-relay-supplied-options-09.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6422.txt DHCPv6 relay agents cannot communicate with DHCPv6 clients directly. However, in some cases, the relay agent possesses some information that would be useful to the DHCPv6 client. This document describes a mechanism whereby the DHCPv6 relay agent can provide such information to the DHCPv6 server, which can, in turn, pass this information on to the DHCP client. This document updates RFC 3315 (DHCPv6) by making explicit the implicit requirement that relay agents not modify the content of encapsulation payloads as they are relayed back toward clients.
