Title : Extensions to DHCP for Roaming Users
Author(s) : B. Mukherjee, B. Gage, Y. Liu
Filename : draft-ietf-dhc-dhcproam-00.txt
Pages : 15

This draft defines enhancements to DHCP so that it can be used by
access networks as an initial configuration protocol for nomadic
users. The authentication mechanism described here interacts with
existing public Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA)
mechanisms, thus enabling per customer authentication and
authorization across multiple domains. In addition, we describe a
mechanism that enables the client to authenticate the network to
prevent attacks on an end host from a bogus network access point.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
