Title : DHCP reconfigure extension

This draft defines extensions to DHCP [DHCP] to allow dynamic
reconfiguration of a single host triggered by the DHCP server (eg. a
new IP address and/or local configuration parameters). This is
achieved by introducing a unicast FORCERENEW message which forces the
client to the RENEW state. The behaviour for hosts using the DHCP
INFORM message to obtain configuration information is also described.

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.
