Hi:

This is to confirm on the DHC WG mailing list our proposal to resolve the RFC3315bis Ticket #150 (Client Option Handling) by updating RFC3315bis as follows (see http://trac.tools.ietf.org/group/dhcpv6bis/ticket/150 and https://www.ietf.org/proceedings/94/slides/slides-94-dhc-5.pdf for more details):

*       Clarify that if client stops receiving "other configuration" option X in a Reply when requested, in general it should drop any previous configuration and "return" to its default state regarding that configuration
-      Renew/Rebind
-      Information-Request
*       Option documents may specify other behavior for more complex cases (i.e., OPTION_DHCP4_O_DHCP6_SERVER)

If you want to comment on this (or ask for clarification), please respond by 11/23. The RFC3315bis team will otherwise update the draft as per the above.

Thanks.

-          Bernie
