Ted and Katherine, et al.--
...my opinion is that the server should only respond to a DHCPINFORM when
the subnet from which the request is received from a configured network. I
don't believe that this limits the generality or usefulness of inform
processing, and certainly seems at first blush to be a bit easier to
implement.
