Some Relay Agents extract lease information from the DHCP message
   exchanged between the client and DHCP server.  This lease information
   is used by relay agents for various purposes like antispoofing and
   prevention of flooding.  RFC 4388 defines a mechanism for relay
   agents to retrieve the lease information from the DHCP server as and
   when this information is lost.  The existing leasequery mechanism is
   data driven, which means that a relay agent can initiate the
   leasequery only when it starts receiving data from/to the clients.
   In certain scenarios, this model is not scalable.  This document
   first looks at issues in existing mechanism and then proposes a new
   query type, query by remote ID, to address these issues.
