A Revised 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     : DHCP Options and BOOTP Vendor Extensions

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) [1] provides a framework for
passing configuration information to hosts on a TCP/IP network.  
Configuration parameters and other control information are carried in 
tagged data items that are stored in the 'options' field of the DHCP 
message.  The data items themselves are also called "options."             

This document specifies the current set of DHCP options.  Future options 
will be specified in separate RFCs.  The current list of valid options is 
also available in ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/iana/assignments [22].      

All of the vendor information extensions defined in RFC 1497 [2] may be 
used as DHCP options.  The definitions given in RFC 1497 are included in 
this document, which supersedes RFC 1497.  All of the DHCP options defined 
in this document, except for those specific to DHCP as defined in section 
9, may be used as BOOTP vendor information extensions.

Send a message to:  [e-mail]. In the body type: 
     "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dhc-options-1533update-04.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 [e-mail].
							

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader 
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version
