The two reasons why this can be a silly question: - NIS wouldn't work with such a config, so all the servers' addresses obviously have to be one address type - You can always encode a v4 address as a v6 address using the 96-zeroes convention (or something else), so it's obvious how to do it But I think the document should address the issue. |

From: … Determined that latest update does not resolve issues raised by Thomas Narten in May. Author did respond indicating that Thomas' issues would be addressed. From: Thomas Narten To: vijayak@india.hp.com cc: dhcwg@ietf.org Date: Wed, 14 May 2003 15:48:17 -0400 Subject: [dhcwg] AD review of draft-ietf-dhc-dhcpv6-opt-nisconfig-02.txt No big issues with this document, I went ahead and requested an IETF LC. Here are my review comments. NIS in abstract will likely need to be spelled out to satisfy rfc editor.. > This document uses terminology specific to IPv6 and DHCPv6 as defined > in section "Terminology" of the DHCP specification. would be good to cite the RFC... > The format of the Network Information Service Servers option is as > as shown below: s/as as/as/ > The Network Information Service Servers option provides a list of > one or more IP addresses of NIS servers available to the client. The > NIS servers SHOULD be listed in the order of preference. I think I understand the intent, but I think it would be more clear to write this something like: Clients MUST treat the list of servers as an ordered list. Servers (when they care) need to fill the fields in priority order (they are not required to). The above words don't really say the client MUST treat the option as an ordered list. Same wording issue appears in other places. > 8. Appearance of these option s/option/Options/ (also capitalize heading for consistency?) > 9. Security Considerations > > The NIS servers, NIS+ servers, NIS domain name and NIS+ domain name > options may be used by an intruder DHCP server to assign invalid NIS > parameters, resulting in clients unable to use NIS. Is this really correct? it makes it sound like there is only a DOS issue. Can't this option be used to send someoneto use a spoofed server, in which case the server can provide bad responses that cause errors or security compromises, or? > 10. IANA Considerations > > IANA is requested to assign an option code to these options from the > option-code space defined in section "DHCPv6 Options" of the DHCPv6 > specification [1]. Would be good to list the options in this section together with TBDs and pointers to the sections. The way things are written now, IANA has to scan the document in more detail to figure out what it needs to do. > 12. Informative References > > [2] Bradner, S., "Key words for use in RFCs to Indicate Requirement > Levels", BCP 14, RFC 2119, March 1997. This references is generally considered normative. |
