# This is an example configuration file for the DHCPv4 server in Kea.
# It contains configuration of the MySQL host database backend, used
# to retrieve reserved addresses, host names, DHCPv4 message fields
# and DHCP options from MySQL database.
{ "Dhcp4":

{
# Kea is told to listen on ethX interface only.
  "interfaces-config": {
    "interfaces": [ "ethX" ]
  },

# We need to specify lease type. As of May 2014, three backends are supported:
# memfile, mysql and pgsql. We'll just use memfile, because it doesn't require
# any prior set up.
  "lease-database": {
    "type": "memfile"
  },

# Addresses will be assigned with valid lifetimes being 4000. Client
# is told to start renewing after 1000 seconds. If the server does not respond
# after 2000 seconds since the lease was granted, client is supposed
# to start REBIND procedure (emergency renewal that allows switching
# to a different server).
  "valid-lifetime": 4000,

# Renew and rebind timers are commented out. This implies that options
# 58 and 59 will not be sent to the client. In this case it is up to
# the client to pick the timer values according to RFC2131. Uncomment the
# timers to send these options to the client.

# Kea supports reservations by several different types of identifiers:
# hw-address (hardware/MAC address of the client), duid (DUID inserted by the
# client), client-id (client identifier inserted by the client) and circuit-id
# (circuit identifier inserted by the relay agent). When told to do so, Kea can
# check for all of those identifier types, but it takes a costly database lookup
# to do so. It is therefore useful from a performance perspective to use only
# the reservation types that are actually used in a given network.

# The example below is not optimal from a performance perspective, but it
# nicely showcases the host reservation capabilities. Please use the minimum
# set of identifier types used in your network.
  "host-reservation-identifiers": [ "circuit-id", "hw-address", "duid", "client-id" ],

# Specify connection to the database holding host reservations. The type
# specifies that the MySQL database is used. user and password are the
# credentials used to connect to the database. host and name specify
# location of the host where the database instance is running, and the
# name of the database to use. The server processing a packet will first
# check if there are any reservations specified for this client in the
# reservations list, within the subnet (configuration file). If there are
# no reservations there, the server will try to retrieve reservations
# from this database.

# within the database.
