Abstract:
In IPv6 networks, there remains a need to provide IPv4 service for
some residual devices. This document describes a mechanism for
allocating IPv4 addresses to such devices, using DHCPv4 with an IPv6
transport. It is done by putting a special relay agent function
(Client Relay Agent) on the client side, as well as extending the
behavior of the server; in the case where DHCP server only supports
IPv4 transport, a relay agent is extended to support IPv6 transport
(IPv6-Transport Relay Agent) and relay DHCP traffic for the server,
with a new Relay Agent Information sub-option added to carry the IPv6
address of the Client Relay Agent.
