This proposal discusses IP address assignment methods and upper layer transport encapsulation in the TGai amendment for high-level services. It emphasizes the stability of DHCP for IPv4 address assignment, ongoing discussions on IPv6 assignment, and the importance of accommodating various protocols despite being at the link layer. The text aims to provide a comprehensive framework for addressing these issues.

SFD Text for Upper Layers Authors: • Date: 2012-03-15 Hiroki Nakano, Trans New Technology, Inc.
Abstract • This proposal includes the text intended for inclusion into Section 4 (IP address assignment). Hiroki Nakano, Trans New Technology, Inc.
Proposed SFD Text • 1. The TGai amendment defines a method of IP(v4) address assignment which works as a transport of DHCP. • 2.The TGai amendment defines a generalized method for upper layer transport encapsulation during FILS to enable higher layer services. • DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, which is defined by RFC2131 and the other supplemental RFCs. Hiroki Nakano, Trans New Technology, Inc.
Intention • An IP(v4) address are normally assigned by DHCP(v4) and the specification of DHCP is stable. DHCP includes definition of state transition and have lots of extensions derived from lots of past discussions. Non-AP STA should be still a DHCP client. • The discussions of IPv6 address assignment are still going on actively in IETF. We should provide a framework for them. • In addition, TGai should not deny the other protocols because of we are the link layer. Hiroki Nakano, Trans New Technology, Inc.
