Hi Pekka, -Original Message- From: ext Pekka Savola [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 30 October, 2008 09:26 But, maybe there is an implementable workaround to this operational issue. Would it be possible for the host to either 1) run DHCPv6 again, with a different DUID or client

Pardon my ignorance. Is there a concrete case of this in some access network standard? (I heard some rumors thereabout) I have heard rumors as well that were in favor of using DHCPv6 for address allocation also in some cellular accesses. By my understanding this is not yet so concrete
