Please see my other message just sent a few moments ago before making this change. To answer your specific question, correct. In many cases this probably won't be an issue (at least if you consider the IPv4 case as all we have there is giaddr). Sure, there are some cases where this would be a problem (relay has no global address or address of sufficient scope for the interface) and in those the relay uses the option to carry this information. But, again, we need to look at the RETURN path and that's why I now think making this an option is a bad idea. - Bernie -----Original Message----- From: Ralph Droms [mailto:rdroms@cisco.com] Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2001 1:23 PM To: dhcwg@ietf.org Subject: Re: [dhcwg] Changes to remove "client-link-local-address" from the DHCPv6 header Before I make the change, let me make sure I understand your proposal. If the relay agent does not include the relay-address, the relay agent has to cause the forwarded message to have a source address - an address with the widest scope possible; e.g., a link-local address isn't useful - that is assigned to the interface on which the message was received by the agent from the client. - Ralph At 11:49 AM 8/29/2001 -0400, Ted Lemon wrote: >How about making relay-address an option?
