HON: Faculty Notes to Chapter 9

Chapter 9
Since David Vos wrote a DHCP server as an honors project
in the Computer Networks course at Calvin during the fall
of 2001, I asked him to provide solutions for this chapter.
He did so, and reports that the DHCP client is a difficult
exercise.
The chapter asks students to write a time client,
a DNS client, and finally a DHCP client.
I would definitely postpone this chapter until after
completion of Chapter 12, and I would add to the type
of packets to be analyzed in that chapter DNS packets.
David reports that he was able to complete the DNS
client after extensive examination of DNS packets.
