The materials/dhcpagent.1m.diff file describes the changes. The main issue is that, unlike v4, v6 manages multiple addresses with a single "session." Thus, when we do an "EXTEND," there may be some addresses added by the server, and some removed. With "EXPIRE," there may still be addresses present. The DROP and RELEASE events refer to the session. (Yes, I should probably make these things clearer in the draft man page.) -- James Carlson, KISS Network <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 1 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
