A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories. This draft is a work item of the Dynamic Host Configuration 
Working Group of the IETF.                                                 

       Title     : Graceful renumbering of networks with DHCP              
       Author(s) : L. Gilbert
       Filename  : draft-ietf-dhc-renumbering-00.txt
       Pages     : 8
       Date      : 04/16/1996

This document proposes a method for improving the ability of the Dynamic 
Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to assist in renumbering an internet.  
DHCP is already capable of supporting host renumbering by assigning a new 
address when a client attempts to renegotiate an existing lease, but this 
proposal makes host renumbering more graceful by providing for a transition
period in which the client can use both addresses.

Send a message to:  mailserv@ds.internic.net. In the body type: 
     "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dhc-renumbering-00.txt".
							
NOTE: The mail server at ds.internic.net can return the document in
      MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
      feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
      command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
      a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
      exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
      "multipart" MIME messages (i.e., documents which have been split
      up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
      how to manipulate these messages.
							
For questions, please mail to Internet-Drafts@cnri.reston.va.us.
							

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader 
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version
of the Internet-Draft.
