[DNA] REMINDER: DHC WG Last Call on draft-ietf-dhc-dna-ipv4-07.txt
This message announces a DHC WG last call on "Detection of Network
Attachment (DNA) in IPv4" <draft-ietf-dhc-dna-ipv4-07.txt>. The last
call will conclude at 5PM EDT on 2004-06-25 (this Friday).
Please respond to this DHC WG last call. If you support acceptance of the
document without change, respond with a simple acknowledgment, so that
support for the document can be assessed. Messages should be sent to the
DHCP WG mailing list, dhcwg@ietf.org.
draft-ietf-dhc-dna-ipv4-07.txt addresses the problem of detecting
attachment to an IPv4 network. The time required to detect movement
(or lack of movement) between subnets, and to obtain (or continue to
use) a valid IPv4 address may be significant as a fraction of the
total delay in moving between points of attachment. This
specification synthesizes experience garnered over the years in the
deployment of hosts supporting ARP, DHCP and IPv4 Link-Local
addresses, in order to optimize detection of network attachment by
mobile hosts. This draft is available as
