DHCP Options for Service Location Protocol
RFC 2610, “DHCP Options for Service Location Protocol”, is a Proposed Standard document published in June 1999 by C. Perkins, E. Guttman. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol provides a framework for passing configuration information to hosts on a TCP/IP network. Entities using the Service Location Protocol need to find out the address of Directory Agents in order to transact messages. Another option provides an assignment of scope for configuration of SLP User and Service Agents. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
