But I would assume if you got zero Advertises back from the first transmission that it likely failed to be received by anyone (perhaps because the Relay did not forward it). That's why I think it might be best to always have the IRT time elapse. But, I fully agree that as more retransmission occur, this is less and less of an issue. And, if there is only one server, it could just as likely have been the response that was lost. But in this case, you'd set the server to use a preference of 255 and gain the benefit. - Bernie -----Original Message----- From: Ted Lemon [mailto:Ted.Lemon@nominum.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 15, 2002 4:03 PM To: Bernie Volz (EUD) Cc: dhcwg@ietf.org; 'JINMEI Tatuya / ????'

I think it makes more sense to say that if IRT has elapsed since the first Solicit was sent, the client just takes the first Advertise it gets. This is how I implemented the ISC DHCPv4 client, and it seems to work pretty nicely.
