Technical Summary

   This document defines new options for Broadcast and Multicast Service
   controller discovery in an IP network.  Broadcast service is being
   developed for 3rd generation (3G) cellular telephone networks.  Users
   of the service interact with a controller in the network via the
   Mobile Node (MN) to derive information required to receive broadcast
   service.  Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol can be used to
   configure the MN to acccess a particular controller.  This document
   defines the related options and option codes.
