Hi Bernie,

This can be a server implementation also, as long as the server saves the encapsulated
relay stack on the client’s record. My thinking is this, some other relay options may also needs
to be saved in order for Reconfigure message through the relays to work properly.

thanks.

One issue that sadly was not addressed in https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dhc-relay-port-10 is what to do about Reconfigure message. There are two ways to deliver Reconfigure messages:

1.       Via the relay
2.       Via unicast to the client

If #1 is used (perhaps because the client and server do not have direct communication because of VPNs or for other reasons), what should the server do? Options are:

1.       Always use the standard port (547).
2.       Record the relay port and use that (since the relay will also be used). I would assume that this would be the “correct” behavior?

I’m not sure if we should (or can) put a hold on RFC-to-be to add something about this?

BTW: This would also have been a good reason to put the port number into the option ALWAYS. This avoids the server from having to record something “else” (the port number), since the server can just extract the value from the outermost (closest to server) Relay Port option.
