RE: [dhcwg] DHC WG charter

Bernie,

Let me be more direct.  I want to see routers be able to use lightweight DHCP to support IPv6 information requests, router renumbering, and the like.  The below ext text is good but I am looking for us to extend the architecture of dhcp to support lightweight processes for router or gateways or what is now called edge-servers.  So I think it needs a separate bullet.

Let me think and come up with different wording?

p.s. Ralph - whats our time frame to discuss the charter?

thanks
/jim

Jim: 

Yes mobility and prefix delegation would be good to consider. I think it 
might already be addressed by:

Regarding your addition:

This seems too specific and I'm not exactly sure what it means. Perhaps the 
requirement is to determine how DHCP can be used to assist in rapid 
renumbering of networks?

Ralph, 

I think we need to add something to the charter for Mobility and Prefix delegation for IPv6.  I think this team and group can do a lot of good and help with evolution of wireless networks and the integration of Mobile.  Specifically:

- Determine the requirements for DHC to support the dynamic renumbering of networks using fast path delegaion as CPE front end between ISP and Private Networks.

What do others think?  I just think we have work to do in this space and not sorted it all out yet.  But do we have to for a charter?

thanks
