Abstract

This proposal describes methods of securing DHCP based on IETF DHCP and IPSEC protocols. This protocol achieves security goals for DHCP client and servers without having to define a new security protocol. Instead, it first bootstraps the DHCP client in un-trusted mode using existing DHCP protocol and then proceeds to secure configuration of the client using existing DHCP and IP protocol features.
