Abstract:
CPEs are usually constraint devices with reduced network and CPU
capacities. As such, a CPE hosting on the Internet the authoritative
naming service for its home network may become vulnerable to resource
exhaustion attacks. One way to avoid exposing CPE is to outsource
the authoritative service to a third party. This third party can be
the ISP or any other independent third party.
Outsourcing the authoritative naming service to a third party
requires setting up an architecture which may be unappropriated for
most end users. To leverage this issue, this document proposes DHCP
Options so any agnostic CPE can automatically proceed to the
appropriated configuration and outsource the authoritative naming
service for the home network. This document shows that in most
cases, these DHCP Options make outsourcing to a third party (be it
the ISP or any ISP independent service provider) transparent for the
end user.
