Hello,
I would like to implement the following feature with Kea :
Based on DHCPv4 option < host name > (12) provided by clients in DHCP requests,
assign a reserved lease IP address.
Reading Kea documentation, I see that the < reservations > entries can have a <
hostname > field.
However (if I understand correctly) this is not used as a matching criteria on
the request, but rather as information to be provided in the response.
Can you confirm ?
If so, I think the < flex-id > commercial hook would be the solution to my
requirement.
For example with the following configuration, I would be able to reserve the
lease 10.0.0.7 to a client that provides < my.host > in DHCP option < host name
> (12).
This IP address 10.0.0.7 would never be assigned to any other client.
Can you confirm this is correct ?
"Dhcp4": {
"subnet4": [ { ...,
"reservations": [
{
"flex-id": "my.host",
"ip-address": "10.0.0.7"
}
],
} ], # end of subnet definitions
"host-reservation-identifiers": ["flex-id"],
"hooks-libraries": [
{
"library": "/path/libdhcp_flex_id.so",
"parameters": {
"identifier-expression": "option[12]"
}
}
]
}
Lastly, I would like to know if it is possible to obtain an evaluation version
of the < flex-id > commercial hook, to perform some tests ?
Thanks for your answers. :)
Regards,
Nicolas.
