We need to be aware that not every network may be able to reach the Internet... So you might need to have an address from every available DHCP server, not just the "best," one, or even a "random," one. For instance, your computer might talk to the power company, but the power company doesn't want to transit your internet traffic. I'm not saying this is a certainty, only that we need to think about it somehow. :-) Russ _______________________________________________ homenet mailing list homenet@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/homenet
