Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) H. Jang Request for Comments: 6610 KISTI Category: Standards Track A. Yegin ISSN: 2070-1721 Samsung K. Chowdhury Radio Mobile Access, Inc. J. Choi Samsung T. Lemon Nominum May 2012 DHCP Options for Home Information Discovery in Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) Abstract This document defines a DHCP-based scheme to enable dynamic discovery of Mobile IPv6 home network information. New DHCP options are defined that allow a mobile node to request the home agent IP address, Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN), or home network prefix and obtain it via the DHCP response. Status of This Memo This is an Internet Standards Track document. This document is a product of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). It represents the consensus of the IETF community. It has received public review and has been approved for publication by the Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG). Further information on Internet Standards is available in Section 2 of RFC 5741.
