Abstract:
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv4 (DHCPv4) enables
DHCPv4 servers to pass configuration parameters. It offers
configuration flexibility. If not being secured, DHCPv4 is
vulnerable to various attacks, particularly spoofing attacks. This
document analyzes the security issues of DHCPv4 and specifies a
Secure DHCPv4 mechanism for communications between DHCPv4 clients and
servers. This document provides a DHCPv4 client/server
authentication mechanism based on server's public/private key pairs
and client's certificates. The DHCPv4 message exchanges are
protected by the signature option and the timestamp option newly
defined in this document.
