Abstract

This specification attempts to synthesize experience garnered over the years in the deployment of hosts supporting ARP, DHCP and IPv4 Link- Local addresses. Given this experience, this document suggests optimizations for IPv4 network attachment detection as well as heuristics for determining when assignment of an IPv4 Link-Local address is appropriate.
