Re: [dhcwg] dhcp6 verndor class option

Hi Bernie,

if relay includes such option, what is the behavior of the server? the
server can return information in the Relay-Reply, but what is the usage for
server to analyze such option info? give different policy?

can you please clarify me?

Regards,
Emily

If there's relay specific information that could be used by a server (or
other relay), there is no reason the relay can't include this in its
Relay-Forw message (and the server return information in the Relay-Reply).

Note that Appendix A, Appearance of Options in Message Types, indicates that
these are valid:

            Status  Rap. User  Vendor Vendor Inter. Recon. Recon.
             Code  Comm. Class Class  Spec.    ID    Msg.  Accept
   R-forw.                 *     *      *      *
   R-repl.                 *     *      *      *

Hi,
    Can you please clarify  in he RFC 3315 (DHCP6)

   "Appearance of Options in Message Types" section mentions that the dhcp6
relay should support
     vendor class option.

    But in the message processing in the "Section 22.16 Vendor Class Option"
does not mention any
    thing about this for relay . It only mentions about how the client
should process this.

     Can some one please clarify this  what should be done for dhcp6 relay ?

regards,
keshava
