Good point. But "LOTS of other places" should be clarified for the sake of arguments. > > This is cheap and efficient.

At least one example: DSL access use currently PPP+IPCP so as to configure IPv4 "parameters". - "or can easily deploy dhcp(lite": ok it is not so clear for me. Deployment is one thing, then we should be sure that such a solution would work in a lot of situation. I have the case where several DHCP servers (one stateless, and another statefull for example) could deal a same LAN, and there I still miss the proper engineering rules not to confuse a DHCP client. > > There was a analysis made by the DNS Discovery Design Team > in march 2001 > > (draft-ietf-ipnwg-dns-discovery-01.txt).
