reportedly implemented by dhcpcd). If you have experience with this
subprotocol, please drop me a note.
The problem is we can't rely on it since it is

clients.
Chicken and egg. If you put it in hnetd, the clients will come.
Well, the thing is. Homenet is not really chartered for host changes and
many believe that IPv4 support is sort of deprecated anyway.
Yes there
If I'm reading this correctly, you're saying that a Homenet router SHOULD

I think that I've finished implementing most of the DHCPv4 bits in shncpd,
and it was hard work. Requested changes to the draft are at the end. In
the following, I write RA for Router Advertisement and RP for Routing
