Abstract:
This memo describes the dynamic allocation of shared IPv4 addresses
to clients using the DHCPv4 protocol. Address sharing allows a
single IPv4 address to be allocated to multiple, active clients
simultaneously, each client being differentiated by a unique set of
L4 source ports. The changes necessary to existing DHCPv4 client and
server behaviour are described and a new DHCPv4 option for
provisioning clients with shared IPv4 addresses is included.
Due to the nature of sharing IP addresses, there are necessarily some
limitations to the applicability. This memo describes those
limitations and recommends suitable architectures and technologies
where address sharing may be utilized.
