The IESG has approved the following document:

- 'DHCPv6 Relay Agent Subscriber-ID Option '
   <draft-ietf-dhc-dhcpv6-subid-01.txt> as a Proposed Standard

This document is the product of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working Group. 

The IESG contact persons are Margaret Wasserman and Mark Townsley.

Technical Summary  

   This memo defines a new Relay Agent Subscriber-ID option for the
   Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6).  The option
   allows a DHCPv6 relay agent to associate a stable "Subscriber-ID"
   with DHCPv6 client messages in a way that is independent of the
   client and of the underlying physical network infrastructure.mary

Working Group Summary

   This document is the work of the DHC WG.  The WG has consensus to 
   publish this document as a Proposed Standard.

   ASCII [5] encoded data, in environments where both DHCPv4 [6] and
   DHCPv6 are being used, it MAY be beneficial to use that encoding.
