This is not actually true. RFC 3315 was written with the clear anticipation of the possibility that a DHCP client might talk to multiple DHCP servers. It doesn't specifically require this behavior, and it doesn't always make sense, but if you have two managed prefixes on a wire, I would expect a DHCP client to try to configure both of them, and if two DHCP servers each manage one of the prefixes, I would expect the DHCP client to wind up getting configurations from two servers. It may be that we weren't clear enough on this point, but that was definitely an anticipated use case. _______________________________________________ homenet mailing list homenet@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/homenet
