Ballot Text

Technical Summary

   This document describes potential issues in the interaction between 
   DHCPv6 and Cryptographically Generated Addresses (CGAs). Firstly, the 
   scenario of using CGAs in DHCPv6 environments is discussed. Some 
   operations are clarified for the interaction of DHCPv6 servers and 
   CGA-associated hosts. We then also discuss how CGAs and DHCPv6 may 
   have mutual benefits for each other, including using CGAs in DHCPv6 
   operations to enhance its security features and using DHCPv6 to 
   provide the CGA generation function. 

Working Group Summary
