> it's unusual for the network block to change on a renewal, At any rate, boot time is too early, since you don't know your ISP-assigned address at that point. You really need to delay until DHCPv4 gets a lease. > and in that rare case you could reboot the router. You don't need to reboot the router, it can renumber just fine. You need to reboot all the client devices (unless they implement DHCPv4 force renew with nonce authentication, aka RFC 3203). I'm not saying it's a bad idea, just pointing out some of the edge-cases that you will need to consider in order to get a robust implementation. -- Juliusz _______________________________________________ Bloat mailing list Bloat@lists.bufferbloat.net https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/bloat
