[ipxe-devel] DHCP Vendor options 128-135 / IPv6 Support

Hello,

I have found that iPXE doesn't include DHCP vendor options 128 - 135 in 
the Parameter Request List when sending DHCPDISCOVER and DHCPREQUEST 
messages. However, this is explicitly required in the PXE spec. Is there 
a reason why iPXE doesn't follow the PXE spec in this point?

Although development work on gPXE appears to be near zero, they have 
recently included IPv6 to some degree. Is this something that is planned 
to be integrated in iPXE as well in the near future?


Thanks and Regards,

    Ralf
