Hi all<br><br> under the section limitation of the protocol in draft-ietf-dhc-failover-07.txt<br> <br>" A subset of the address pool is reserved for secondary server use. In order to handle the failure case where both servers<br>
are able to communicate with DHCP clients, but unable to communicate with each other, a subset of the IP address pool must<br> be set aside as a private address pool for the secondary server. The secondary can use these to service newly arrived<br>
DHCP clients during such a period. The required size of this private pool is based only on the arrival rate of new DHCP clients and the length of expected downtime, and is not influenced in any way by the total number of DHCP clients support by the server pair.".<br>
<br>Can one some one clarify whether the above mentioned process is automatically done by the fail over protocol ?<br><br>if so how <br><br>Logan<br><br><br>
