Hello!
Since I haven't recieved a reply concerning my original message of
October 17, 1997, I'm re-sending this message. Please respond as
soon as possible. We require new code numbers for these two DHCP
options soon.
Apple Computer Inc. is developing a vendor extension to the BOOTP /
DHCP protocol, and requires code numbers for two new options.
These options would be known as the NetInfo Parent Server Address
and NetInfo Parent Server Tag. Descriptions of these options is
given below in the style of RFC1533.
Thank you for your help in this matter.

Descriptions:
The NetInfo Parent Server Address option is used by clients to
obtain the address of the parent server for their local NetInfo
domain. The tag of the NetInfo parent server may be obtained
through the NetInfo Parent Server Tag option. If that option is not
present, a default value of "network" will be used for binding the
local domain to a parent server.
The length of this option is 4.

The NetInfo Parent Server Tag option is used by clients to obtain
the tag of the NetInfo parent server, if the tag is different from
the default value "network".
The minimum length of this option is 1.
