DHC Working Group L. Yeh Internet-Draft Freelancer Technologies Intended status: Standards Track M. Boucadair Expires: January 6, 2014 France Telecom July 5, 2013 RADIUS Option for DHCPv6 Relay Agent draft-ietf-dhc-dhcpv6-radius-opt-13 Abstract The DHCPv6 RADIUS option provides a mechanism to exchange authorization and identification information between the DHCPv6 relay agent and the DHCPv6 server. This mechanism is meant for the centralized DHCPv6 server to select the right configuration for the requesting DHCPv6 client based on the authorization information received from the RADIUS server, which is not co-located with the DHCPv6 server. The Network Access Server (NAS) acts as DHCPv6 relay agent and RADIUS client simultaneously in this document.

Introduction DHCPv6 provides a mechanism that allows the server to assign or delegate both stateful and stateless configuration parameters to the clients. The stateful configuration parameters include IPv6 address [RFC3315] and IPv6 prefix [RFC3633]. The stateless configuration parameters [RFC3736] include, for example, DNS [RFC3646], or a FQDN of AFTR [RFC6334]. In the scenarios described in this document, the DHCPv6 server is deployed in the central part of an ISP network. RADIUS [RFC2865] is widely used as the centralized authentication, authorization and user management mechanism for the service provision in Broadband access network. [RFC3162], [RFC4818], [RFC6519] and [RFC6911] specified attributes that support the service provision for IPv6-only and IPv6-transition access. RADIUS server authorizes the Network Access Server (NAS) to assign an IPv6 address or prefix from the indicated pool, or to assign an IPv6 address or prefix with anShow full document text
