Is there any convention on the where DHCP message type  ( option 53 ) is  to
be placed  in the
options fields? Will servers always return this as the first option after
the Magic Cookie?  Is this
specified anywhere in the RFC's?
It would be very nice if the one could assume the DHCP  message type was
always the first option after the Magice Cookie.

Thanks

Chip
