A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 6355 Title: Definition of the UUID-Based DHCPv6 Unique Identifier (DUID-UUID) Author: T. Narten, J. Johnson Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: August 2011 Mailbox: narten@us.ibm.com, jarrod.b.johnson@gmail.com Pages: 5 Characters: 11453 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-dhc-duid-uuid-03.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6355.txt This document defines a new DHCPv6 Unique Identifier (DUID) type called DUID-UUID. DUID-UUIDs are derived from the already-standardized Universally Unique IDentifier (UUID) format. DUID-UUID makes it possible for devices to use UUIDs to identify themselves to DHC servers and vice versa. UUIDs are globally unique and readily available on many systems, making them convenient identifiers to leverage within DHCP. [STANDARDS-TRACK] This document is a product of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Internet Official Protocol Standards (STD 1) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
