NoAddrsAvail NoBinding NotOnLink UnspecFail Solicit Ignore NA NA NA Advertise Request Choose NA Solicit NA next server Confirm NA NA Solicit NA Renew NA Request NA NA Rebind NA Request NA NA Release NA NA NA NA Decline NA NA NA NA Inform-req NA NA NA Choose next server The above is the state diagram for the client. (Renew, NotOnlink) and (Rebind, NotOnlink) is NA here, because, the server will make lifetimes as 0, in the case the addresses are not in the link. But (Confirm, NotOnlink) is a applicable. If the server finds that one or more prefixes are not appropriate, then it will send NotOnlink status. I think, for the confirm also, server can do operation similar to (Renew, NotOnlink) but with little bit change. If one or more addresses are not appropriate to the link, it can return those addresses ONLY with status NotOnLink, else it canreturn SUCCESS. Thus the client can continue using the addressses which are appropriate to the link. This will avoid client sending SOLICIT unnecessarily. ~ Vijay _______________________________________________ dhcwg mailing list dhcwg@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dhcwg
