The Authentication Suboption for the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Relay Agent Option
RFC 4030, “The Authentication Suboption for the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Relay Agent Option”, is a Proposed Standard document published in April 2005 by M. Stapp, T. Lemon. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Relay Agent Information Option (RFC 3046) conveys information between a DHCP Relay Agent and a DHCP server. This specification defines an authentication suboption for that option, containing a keyed hash in its payload. The suboption supports data integrity and replay protection for relayed DHCP messages. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
