+ <simpara>On Linux and BSD system families the DHCP messages are sent
|
|
|
+ and received over the raw sockets (using LPF and BPF) and all packet
|
|
|
+ headers (including data link layer, IP and UDP headers) are created and
|
|
|
+ parsed by Kea, rather than the system kernel. Currently, Kea only can
|
|
|
+ only parse the data link layer headers with a format adhering to
|
|
|
+ IEEE 802.3 standard and assumes this data link layer header format
|
|
|
+ for all interfaces. Hence, Kea will fail to work on interfaces
|
|
|
+ which use different data link layer header formats (e.g. Infiniband).
