A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.

        Title           : Layer 2 Relay Agent
        Author(s)       : B. Joshi, et al.
        Filename        : draft-joshi-dhc-layer2-relay-agent-01.txt
        Pages           : 24
        Date            : 2007-6-15

In Layer 2 Access Networks, Access Concentrators are present between
   DHCP Clients and Relay Agent.  In this case, the Relay Agent can not
   uniquely identify the end host and hence can not add unique 'Relay
   Agent Information' option corresponding to the end hosts in DHCP
   messages.  As the Access concentrators are closer to the end hosts,
   they can uniquely identify the end hosts and add the Relay Agent
   Information option in the DHCP message.  Access concentrators do not
   set the 'giaddr' field.  Access Concentrators in this mode are
   typically known as Layer 2 Relay agents.

   This document provides insight to the behavior of the Access
   Concentrators which act as DHCP Layer 2 Relay Agents in Access
   Networks.

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.
