Hi Veronique,
"client-classes" within a reservation definition can only contain a list of
classes:
Can you explain what you are trying to achieve here? There may be another way
of accomplishing it.
Kind Regards Peter
>From "Kea Configuration File Syntax (BNF)":
reservation_client_classes ::= "client-classes" ":" list_strings
list_strings ::= "[" list_strings_content "]"

Subject: [Kea-users] Example for ifelse in host reservation or class
Hi,
Is there a way to use ifelse in a host reservation ?
We would like something like
"reservations": [ { "hw-address": "xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:fa", "ip-address":
"yy.yy.yy.121", "hostname": "lab-client", "client-classes": [ " ifelse (
substring(option[vendor-class-identifier].text, 0, 9) == 'PXEClient' ,
'Desktop', none) " ] },
But the above does not work: KEA interprets the whole string "ifelse (
substring(option[vendor-class-identifier].text, 0, 9) == 'PXEClient' ,
'Desktop', none) " as being the client-class name itself.
Alternatively we could use "ifelse" in the client-class definition but none of
the combinations we have tried works: we always get a syntax error reported by
the validation of the json configuration file.
What we need is the equivalent of what we have in DHCPD:
group { # Desktop Clients if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) =
"PXEClient" { option vendor-class-identifier "PXEClient"; option
dhcp-server-identifier aims.xxx; next-server aims.xxx; } host client1 {
hardware ethernet xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:fa; option host-name "lab-client";
fixed-address yy.yy.yy.121; } ....
}
Thanks,
Veronique
