Subject: RE: Last Call: DHCP Option to Disable Stateless Auto-Configuratio n in IPv4 Clients to Proposed Standard

It is not clear from the draft if the "DoNotAutoConfig" option is
"sticky" or not.

For example, if a client has received the "DoNotAutoConfig" option,
should it remember for all future DHCP transactions not explicitly 
overriding this option?

More specifically, if my computer received "DoNot" option and later
fails to renew the lease because DHCP server is unavailable, 
will it honor the option or will it autoconfigure?
