// This is an example configuration file for the DHCPv6 server in Kea. // It is a basic scenario with one IPv6 subnet configured. It demonstrates // how to configure Kea to use various backends to store leases: // - memfile // - MySQL // - PostgreSQL // - CQL (Cassandra) backend { "Dhcp6": { // Kea is told to listen on ethX interface only. "interfaces-config": { "interfaces": [ "ethX" ] }, // We need to specify lease type. Exactly one lease-database section // should be present. Make sure you uncomment only one. // 1. memfile backend. Leases information will be stored in flat CSV file. // This is the easiest backend to use as it does not require any extra // dependencies or services running. "lease-database": { "type": "memfile", "persist": true, "lfc-interval": 3600 }, // 2. MySQL backend. Leases will be stored in MySQL database. Make sure it // is up, running and properly initialized. See kea-admin documentation // for details on how to initialize the database. The only strictly required // parameters are type and name. If other parameters are not specified, // Kea will assume the database is available on localhost, that user and // password is not necessary to connect and that timeout is 5 seconds. // Kea must be compiled with --with-dhcp-mysql option to use this backend. // "lease-database": { // "type": "mysql", // "name": "keatest", // "host": "localhost", // "port": 3306, // "user": "keatest", // "password": "secret1", // "connect-timeout": 3 // }, // 3. PostgreSQL backend. Leases will be stored in PostgreSQL database. Make // sure it is up, running and properly initialized. See kea-admin documentation // for details on how to initialize the database. The only strictly required // parameters are type and name. If other parameters are not specified, // Kea will assume the database is available on localhost, that user and // password is not necessary to connect and that timeout is 5 seconds. // Kea must be compiled with --with-dhcp-pgsql option to use this backend. // "lease-database": { // "type": "pgsql", // "name": "keatest", // "host": "localhost", // "port": 5432, // "user": "keatest", // "password": "secret1", // "connect-timeout": 3 // }, // 4. CQL (Cassandra) backend. Leases will be stored in Cassandra // database. Make sure it is up, running and properly initialized. See // kea-admin documentation for details on how to initialize the // database. The only strictly required parameters are type, keyspace // and contact-points. At least one contact point must be specified, but // more than one is required for redundancy. Make sure you specify the // contact points without spaces. Kea must be compiled with --with-cql // option to use this backend. // "lease-database": { // "type": "cql", // "keyspace": "keatest", // "contact-points": "192.0.2.1,192.0.2.2,192.0.2.3", // "port": 9042 // }, // Addresses will be assigned with preferred and valid lifetimes // being 3000 and 4000, respectively. 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). "preferred-lifetime": 3000, "valid-lifetime": 4000, "renew-timer": 1000, "rebind-timer": 2000, // The following list defines subnets. Each subnet consists of at // least subnet and pool entries. "subnet6": [ { "pools": [ { "pool": "2001:db8:1::/80" } ], "subnet": "2001:db8:1::/64", "interface": "ethX" } ] }, // The following configures logging. It assumes that messages with at // least informational level (info, warn, error and fatal) should be // logged to stdout. "Logging": { "loggers": [ { "name": "kea-dhcp6", "output_options": [ { "output": "stdout" } ], "debuglevel": 0, "severity": "INFO" } ] } }
