My only recollection as to why there might have been a reason to make this optional was that it was unknown at the time whether all clients actually put real values in the secs field of the DHCP packet. I think it's fine to make support for this in agents that implement load balancing mandatory anyway, though - all of the major clients of which I am aware do correctly support the secs field. _______________________________________________ dhcwg mailing list dhcwg@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dhcwg
