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. A URL for this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-droms-dhc-dhcpv6-default-router-00...
