A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working Group of the IETF. Title : DHCPv6 Failover Protocol Authors : Tomasz Mrugalski Kim Kinnear Filename : draft-ietf-dhc-dhcpv6-failover-protocol-00.txt Pages : 80 Date : 2015-10-16 Abstract: DHCPv6 defined in "Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6)" does not offer server redundancy. This document defines a specific protocol implementation to provide for DHCPv6 failover, a mechanism for running two servers on the same network with capability for either server to take over clients' leases in case of server failure or network partition. It meets the requirements for DHCPv6 failover detailed in "DHCPv6 Failover Requirements".
