[Vyatta-users] Announcing Vyatta Community Edition 4 Beta

[Dave Roberts]

I'm pleased to announce that VC4 (Glendale) Beta was released this morning 
and is available for immediate download from either www.vyatta.org 
http://www.vyatta.org/  or www.vyatta.com http://www.vyatta.com/  .

The feature set for this release is basically unchanged from the previous 
Alpha 2 release, but many issues have been corrected.

You can get a full set of release notes here:
http://www.vyatta.org/documentation http://www.vyatta.org/documentation

Notable enhancements from VC3 include:

* FusionCLI

* Completely reworked routing subsystem. The scalability and 
performance of 
the routing subsystem are tremendously better than VC3 and before. This new 
routing subsystem was used for the recent Tolly testing versus the Cisco 
7204.

* Role-based access control

* Equal-cost multi-path routing

* Remote access VPN, including L2TP+IPsec and PPTP

*GRE and IP-in-IP tunnels

* PPPoE

* WAN load balancing

* QoS and bandwidth limiting

  * DHCP Client

See the release notes for more details.

Re: [Vyatta-users] Custom DHCP options

[Matt Watson]

I don;t think you can do this...

I tried doing it before but I didn;t have much luck... i wanted to set 
tftp-server-name so that i could specifcy the TFTP server for my SIP phones to 
download their config from.

The problem isn;t the lack of functionality in the DHCP server, the problem is 
Vyatta's CLI's inability to configure the options.  Vyatta is basically just 
creating a dhcpd.conf file based on your vyatta config... one hack I did to 
fix this probably temporarly is to not include any dhcp config in the vyatta 
config... then i configured dhcpd.conf myself with the options I wanted... 
unfortunatly this method means that OFR doesn't automatically start the dhcp 
server at bootup... hence why its only a temporary solution for me...

One thing i;m considering doing is setting up dhcp relay to trying to 
centralize all of my dhcp servers... but it would be very nice if OFR allowed 
you to specify arbitrary options

I was actually extremely surprised when i discovered i couldn';t set 
tftp-server-name through OFR... given how common TFTP is for IP phones... and 
considering that Vyatta is partnered with Digium - the author of Asterisk PBX -

Subject: [Vyatta-users] Custom DHCP options

Hi,

Is there a way in the OFR to add custom DHCP options to the DHCP
server?  If not what will be the best way for me to accomplish this on
vc3?

Thanks.
