Hello,

I'm currently working on DHCPv6 and I'm interested in one option
proposed by Schulzrinne and Nair for DHCP (draft-ietf-sip-dhcp-04.txt).
It is the DHCP Option for SIP Servers and it looks like this:

 Code  Len      DNS name of SIP server
+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+--
| TBD |  n  | s1  | s2  | s3  | s4  | s5  |  ...
+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+--

As far as I see, is this option only for IPv4 (due to that code and len
are only 8 bit long and in DHCPv6 these both are 16 bit). Is there any
plan to make an option for DHCPv6?

With best regards
Martin Stiemerling
