A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.


	Title		: Flexible Authentication for DHCP Messages
	Author(s)	: V. Gupta

This memo proposes a new protocol for DHCP authentication within the
general framework outlined in RFC 3118 [4].  This protocol uses
public-key cryptography, in the form of digital signatures, for
authentication.  This simplifies key management and supports mutual
authentication between clients and servers belonging to different
administrative domains.

In the body type:

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
