  • Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6)
    2018
    Co-Authors: J. Bound, Ted Lemon, Bernie Volz, Charles E. Perkins, M. Carney, Ralph Droms
    Abstract:

    The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCP) enables DHCP servers to pass Configuration parameters such as IPv6 network addresses to IPv6 nodes. It offers the capability of automatic allocation of reusable network addresses and additional Configuration flexibility. This protocol is a stateful counterpart to "IPv6 Stateless Address AutoConfiguration" (RFC 2462), and can be used separately or concurrently with the latter to obtain Configuration parameters.

  • Security of Messages Exchanged Between Servers and Relay Agents
    2017
    Co-Authors: Yogendra Pal, Bernie Volz
    Abstract:

    The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv4 (DHCPv4) has no guidance for how to secure messages exchanged between servers and relay agents. The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6) states that IPsec should be used to secure messages exchanged between servers and relay agents but does not require encryption. With recent concerns about pervasive monitoring and other attacks, it is appropriate to require securing relay-to-relay and relay-to-server communication for DHCPv6 and relay-to-server communication for DHCPv4.

  • resolution of fully qualified domain name fqdn conflicts among dynamic Host Configuration protocol dhcp clients
    RFC, 2006
    Co-Authors: Mark Stapp, Bernie Volz
    Abstract:

    The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) provides a mechanism for Host Configuration that includes dynamic assignment of IP addresses and fully qualified domain names. To maintain accurate name- to-IP-address and IP-address-to-name mappings in the DNS, these dynamically assigned addresses and fully qualified domain names (FQDNs) require updates to the DNS. This document identifies situations in which conflicts in the use of fully qualified domain names may arise among DHCP clients and servers, and it describes a strategy for the use of the DHCID DNS resource record (RR) in resolving those conflicts.

  • the dynamic Host Configuration protocol dhcp client fully qualified domain name fqdn option
    RFC, 2006
    Co-Authors: Mark Stapp, Yakov Rekhter, Bernie Volz
    Abstract:

    This document describes a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv4 (DHCPv4) option that can be used to exchange information about a DHCPv4 client's fully qualified domain name and about responsibility for updating the DNS RR related to the client's address assignment. [STANDARDS-TRACK]

  • dhcp relay agent Configuration option

    Co-Authors: Rajiv Asati, Ralph Droms
    Abstract:

    This document defines a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Relay Agent Configuration option and associated machinery to configure the Relay Agent.

  • Stateless Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Service for IPv6
    2004
    Co-Authors: Ralph Droms
    Abstract:

    Stateless Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol service for IPv6 (DHCPv6) is used by nodes to obtain Configuration information, such as the addresses of DNS recursive name servers, that does not require the maintenance of any dynamic state for individual clients. A node that uses stateless DHCP must have obtained its IPv6 addresses through some other mechanism, typically stateless address autoConfiguration. This document explains which parts of RFC 3315 must be implemented in each of the different kinds of DHCP agents so that agent can support stateless DHCP.

  • unused dynamic Host Configuration protocol dhcp option codes
    RFC, 2004
    Co-Authors: Ralph Droms
    Abstract:

    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.

  • DNS Configuration options for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6)
    2003
    Co-Authors: Ralph Droms
    Abstract:

    This document describes Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6) options for passing a list of available DNS recursive name servers and a domain search list to a client.

  • Networking without Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol server in Ethernet and Wireless Local Area Network
    Journal of Network and Computer Applications, 2011
    Co-Authors: Tzu-chi Huang, Kuo-chih Chu
    Abstract:

    A Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server is a well-known server deployed at a network to manage Internet Protocol (IP) addresses temporarily rentable to Hosts in the network. Besides, a DHCP server provides Hosts with important network information such as the subnet mask and the gateway IP address. However, a DHCP server has many drawbacks and should not be considered necessary in each network. If no DHCP server exists in a network to serve Hosts and no network administrator helps users manually configure the Hosts, currently no practical solution can make the Hosts access networks. In this paper, Automatic Host Configuration Mechanism (AHCM) is proposed to make a Host access Ethernet and Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) without a DHCP server. AHCM can automatically locate IP addresses usable to Hosts and find network information in a transparent way without any user interference. Working like protocol software inside an Operating System (OS), AHCM has high compatibility because of neither modifying any application nor deploying a third party server in a network. Most importantly, AHCM does not have drawbacks in a DHCP server. AHCM is implemented in the protocol stack on Windows XP and tested in several experiments to identify its overheads and performances.
