This message announces a WG last call on "Layer 2 Relay Agent Information" <draft-ietf-dhc-l2ra-02>. The last call will conclude at 1700PDT October 20, 2008. draft-ietf-dhc-l2ra-02 has been revised based on comments received during the previous WG discussion of draft-ietf-dhc-l2ra-01 Please respond to this WG last call. If you support acceptance of the document without change, respond with a simple acknowledgment, so that support for the document can be assessed. Lack of discussion does not represent positive support. If there is no expression of support for acceptance during the WG last call, the document will not be advanced to the IESG. Note that there was only one response to the previous discussion of this document, which would not be sufficient to advance the document to the IESG. draft-ietf-dhc-l2ra-02 describes the network scenarios where a Layer 2 Relay Agent is in use and how it handles DHCP messages. In some networks, DHCP servers rely on Relay Agent Information option appended by Relay Agents for IP address and other parameter assignment policies. This works fine when end hosts are directly connected to Relay Agents. In some network configurations, one or more Layer 2 devices may reside between DHCP clients and Relay agent. In these network scenarios, it is difficult to use the Relay Agent Information option for IP address and other parameter assignment policies effectively. So there is a need for the device that is closest to the end hosts to append Relay Agent Information option in DHCP messages. These devices are typically known as Layer 2 Relay Agents.
