Thanks to all who responded with input about why DHCPv6 should have
options for default routers and prefix information. We've published a
draft defining these options, which will be discussed at the upcoming
IETF meeting in San Francisco.
A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.
Title : Default Router and Prefix Advertisement Options
for DHCPv6
Author(s) : R. Droms, T. Narten
Filename : draft-droms-dhc-dhcpv6-default-router-00.txt
Pages : 7
Date : 2009-03-02
In some IPv6 deployments, there is a requirement to communicate a
list of default routers and advertised prefixes to a host through
DHCP. This document defines DHCP options to carry that information.
