Prior to the publication of RFC 2489 (which was updated by RFC 2939),
several option codes were assigned to proposed Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) options that were subsequently never
used.  This document lists those unused option codes and directs IANA
to make these option codes available for assignment to other DHCP
options in the future.

The document also lists several option codes that are not currently
documented in an RFC but should not be made available for
reassignment to future DHCP options.

This document is a product of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working
Group of the IETF.
