.SH NAME
|
|
|
|
|
dhcp-options - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol options
|
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
The Dynamic Host Configuration protocol allows the client to receive
|
|
|
|
|
.B options
|
|
|
|
|
from the DHCP server describing the network configuration and various
|
|
|
|
|
services that are available on the network. When configuring
|
|
|
|
|
.B dhcpd(8)
|
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
|
.B dhclient(8) ,
|
|
|
|
|
options must often be declared. The syntax for declaring options,
|
|
|
|
|
and the names and formats of the options that can be declared, are
|
|
|
|
|
documented here.
|
|
|
|
|
.SH REFERENCE: OPTION STATEMENTS
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
DHCP \fIoption\fR statements always start with the \fIoption\fR
|
|
|
|
|
keyword, followed by an option name, followed by option data. The
|
|
|
|
|
option names and data formats are described below. It is not
|
|
|
|
|
necessary to exhaustively specify all DHCP options - only those
|
|
|
|
|
options which are needed by clients must be specified.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
Option data comes in a variety of formats, as defined below:
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
|
.B ip-address
|
|
|
|
|
data type can be entered either as an explicit IP
|
|
|
|
|
address (e.g., 239.254.197.10) or as a domain name (e.g.,
|
|
|
|
|
haagen.isc.org). When entering a domain name, be sure that that
|
|
|
|
|
domain name resolves to a single IP address.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
|
.B int32
|
|
|
|
|
data type specifies a signed 32-bit integer. The
|
|
|
|
|
.B uint32
|
|
|
|
|
data type specifies an unsigned 32-bit integer. The
|
|
|
|
|
.B int16
|
|
|
|
|
and
|
|
|
|
|
.B uint16
|
|
|
|
|
data types specify signed and unsigned 16-bit integers. The
|
|
|
|
|
.B int8
|
|
|
|
|
and
|
|
|
|
|
.B uint8
|
|
|
|
|
data types specify signed and unsigned 8-bit integers.
|
|
|
|
|
Unsigned 8-bit integers are also sometimes referred to as octets.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
|
.B text
|
|
|
|
|
data type specifies an NVT ASCII string, which must be
|
|
|
|
|
enclosed in double quotes - for example, to specify a root-path
|
|
|
|
|
option, the syntax would be
|
|
|
|
|
.nf
|
|
|
|
|
.sp 1
|
|
|
|
|
option root-path "10.0.1.4:/var/tmp/rootfs";
|
|
|
|
|
.fi
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
|
.B domain-name
|
|
|
|
|
data type specifies a domain name, which must not
|
|
|
|
|
enclosed in double quotes. This data type is not used for any
|
|
|
|
|
existing DHCP options. The domain name is stored just as if it were
|
|
|
|
|
a text option.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
|
.B flag
|
|
|
|
|
data type specifies a boolean value. Booleans can be either true or
|
|
|
|
|
false (or on or off, if that makes more sense to you).
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
|
.B string
|
|
|
|
|
data type specifies either an NVT ASCII string
|
|
|
|
|
enclosed in double quotes, or a series of octets specified in
|
2001-08-03 17:34:08 +04:00
|
|
|
hexadecimal, separated by colons. For example:
|
2001-08-03 15:35:28 +04:00
|
|
|
.nf
|
|
|
|
|
.sp 1
|
|
|
|
|
option dhcp-client-identifier "CLIENT-FOO";
|
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
|
option dhcp-client-identifier 43:4c:49:45:54:2d:46:4f:4f;
|
|
|
|
|
.fi
|
|
|
|
|
.SH SETTING OPTION VALUES USING EXPRESSIONS
|
|
|
|
|
Sometimes it's helpful to be able to set the value of a DHCP option
|
|
|
|
|
based on some value that the client has sent. To do this, you can
|
|
|
|
|
use expression evaluation. The
|
|
|
|
|
.B dhcp-eval(5)
|
|
|
|
|
manual page describes how to write expressions. To assign the result
|
|
|
|
|
of an evaluation to an option, define the option as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
.nf
|
|
|
|
|
.sp 1
|
|
|
|
|
\fBoption \fImy-option \fB= \fIexpression \fB;\fR
|
|
|
|
|
.fi
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
|
.nf
|
|
|
|
|
.sp 1
|
|
|
|
|
option hostname = binary-to-ascii (16, 8, "-",
|
|
|
|
|
substring (hardware, 1, 6));
|
|
|
|
|
.fi
|
|
|
|
|
.SH STANDARD DHCP OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
|
The documentation for the various options mentioned below is taken
|
|
|
|
|
from the latest IETF draft document on DHCP options. Options not
|
|
|
|
|
listed below may not yet be implemented, but it is possible to use
|
|
|
|
|
such options by defining them in the configuration file. Please see
|
|
|
|
|
the DEFINING NEW OPTIONS heading later in this document for more
|
|
|
|
|
information.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The standard options are:
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
.B option \fBall-subnets-local\fR \fIflag\fR\fB;\fR
|
|
|
|
|
.RS 0.25i
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
This option specifies whether or not the client may assume that all
|
|
|
|
|
subnets of the IP network to which the client is connected use the
|
|
|
|
|
same MTU as the subnet of that network to which the client is
|
|
|
|
|
directly connected. A value of true indicates that all subnets share
|
|
|
|
|
the same MTU. A value of false means that the client should assume that
|
|
|
|
|
some subnets of the directly connected network may have smaller MTUs.

.PP
|
|
|
|

This option is used to identify a bootstrap file. If supported by the
|
|
|
|
|
client, it should have the same effect as the \fBfilename\fR
|
|
|
|
|
declaration. BOOTP clients are unlikely to support this option. Some
|
|
|
|
|
DHCP clients will support it, and others actually require it.

This option can be used to specify the a DHCP client identifier in a

.PP

Please be aware that some DHCP clients, when configured with client

identifiers that are ASCII text, will prepend a zero to the ASCII

the server, if the client did not send a dhcp-max-message-size option,

.PP
|
|

This option, when sent by the client, specifies which options the
|
|
|
|
|
client wishes the server to return. Normally, in the ISC DHCP
|
|
|
|
|
client, this is done using the \fIrequest\fR statement. If this
|
|
|
|
|
option is not specified by the client, the DHCP server will normally
|
|
|
|
|
return every option that is valid in scope and that fits into the
|
|
|
|
|
reply. When this option is specified on the server, the server
|
|
|
|
|
returns the specified options. This can be used to force a client to
|
|
|
|
|
take options that it hasn't requested, and it can also be used to
|
|
|
|
|
tailor the response of the DHCP server for clients that may need a
|
|
|
|
|
more limited set of options than those the server would normally
|
|

return.

.SH RELAY AGENT INFORMATION OPTION
|
|
|
|
|
An IETF draft, draft-ietf-dhc-agent-options-11.txt, defines a series
|
|
|
|
|
of encapsulated options that a relay agent can add to a DHCP packet
|
|
|
|
|
when relaying it to the DHCP server. The server can then make
|
|
|
|
|
address allocation decisions (or whatever other decisions it wants)
|
|
|
|
|
based on these options. The server also returns these options in any
|
|
|
|
|
replies it sends through the relay agent, so that the relay agent can
|
|
|
|
|
use the information in these options for delivery or accounting
|
|
|
|
|
purposes.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The current draft defines two options. To reference
|
|
|
|
|
these options in the dhcp server, specify the option space name,
|
|
|
|
|
"agent", followed by a period, followed by the option name. It is
|
|
|
|
|
not normally useful to define values for these options in the server,
|
|
|
|
|
although it is permissible. These options are not supported in the
|
|
|
|
|
client.

The circuit-id suboption encodes an agent-local identifier of the

intended for use by agents in relaying DHCP responses back to the

|

proper circuit. The format of this option is currently defined to be
|
|
|
|
|
vendor-dependent, and will probably remain that way, although the
|
|

current draft allows for for the possibility of standardizing the

The remote-id suboption encodes information about the remote host end
|
|
|
|
|
of a circuit. Examples of what it might contain include caller ID
|
|
|
|
|
information, username information, remote ATM address, cable modem ID,
|
|
|
|
|
and similar things. In principal, the meaning is not well-specified,
|

|
|
|
and it should generally be assumed to be an opaque object that is
|
|
|
|
|
administratively guaranteed to be unique to a particular remote end of
|
|
|
|
|
a circuit.

.SH THE CLIENT FQDN SUBOPTIONS

The Client FQDN option, currently defined in the Internet Draft
|
|
|
|
|
draft-ietf-dhc-fqdn-option-00.txt is not a standard yet, but is in
|
|
|
|
|
sufficiently wide use already that we have implemented it. Due to
|
|
|
|
|
the complexity of the option format, we have implemented it as a
|
|
|
|
|
suboption space rather than a single option. In general this
|
|
|
|
|
option should not be configured by the user - instead it should be
|
|
|
|
|
used as part of an automatic DNS update system.

If true, this indicates that the domain name included in the option is

encoded in DNS wire format, rather than as plain ASCII text. The client
|
|

normally sets this to false if it doesn't support DNS wire format in the

|
|
|
|
FQDN option. The server should always send back the same value that the

client sent. When this value is set on the configuration side, it controls

the format in which the \fIfqdn.name\fR suboption is encoded.

.SH DEFINING NEW OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
|
The Internet Software Consortium DHCP client and server provide the
|
|
|
|
|
capability to define new options. Each DHCP option has a name, a
|
|
|
|
|
code, and a structure. The name is used by you to refer to the
|
|
|
|
|
option. The code is a number, used by the DHCP server and client to
|
|
|
|
|
refer to an option. The structure describes what the contents of an
|
|
|
|
|
option looks like.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
To define a new option, you need to choose a name for it that is not
|
|
|
|
|
in use for some other option - for example, you can't use "host-name"
|
|
|
|
|
because the DHCP protocol already defines a host-name option, which is
|
|
|
|
|
documented earlier in this manual page. If an option name doesn't
|
|
|
|
|
appear in this manual page, you can use it, but it's probably a good
|
|
|
|
|
idea to put some kind of unique string at the beginning so you can be
|
|
|
|
|
sure that future options don't take your name. For example, you
|
|
|
|
|
might define an option, "local-host-name", feeling some confidence
|
|
|
|
|
that no official DHCP option name will ever start with "local".
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
Once you have chosen a name, you must choose a code. For site-local
|
|
|
|
|
options, all codes between 128 and 254 are reserved for DHCP options,
|
|
|
|
|
so you can pick any one of these. In practice, some vendors have
|
|
|
|
|
interpreted the protocol rather loosely and have used option code
|
|
|
|
|
values greater than 128 themselves. There's no real way to avoid
|
|
|
|
|
this problem, but it's not likely to cause too much trouble in
|
|
|
|
|
practice.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The structure of an option is simply the format in which the option
|
|
|
|
|
data appears. The ISC DHCP server currently supports a few simple
|
|
|
|
|
types, like integers, booleans, strings and IP addresses, and it also
|
|
|
|
|
supports the ability to define arrays of single types or arrays of
|
|
|
|
|
fixed sequences of types.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|

and
|
|
|
|
|
.I new-code
|
|
|
|
|
should be the name you have chosen for the new option and the code you
|
|
|
|
|
have chosen. The
|
|
|
|
|
.I definition
|
|
|
|
|
should be the definition of the structure of the option.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|

The following simple option type definitions are supported:
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|

.B BOOLEAN
|

|
|
|
|
|
An option of type boolean is a flag with a value of either on or off
|
|
|
|
|
(or true or false). So an example use of the boolean type would be:
|
|
|
|
|
.nf
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
option use-zephyr code 180 = boolean;

|
.I width
|
|
|
|
|
.B ;
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The \fIsign\fR token should either be blank, \fIunsigned\fR
|
|
|
|
|
or \fIsigned\fR. The width can be either 8, 16 or 32, and refers to
|
|
|
|
|
the number of bits in the integer. So for example, the following two
|
|
|
|
|
lines show a definition of the sql-connection-max option and its use:

|
|

It's also possible to have options that are arrays of records, for
|
|
|
|
|
example:
|
|
|
|
|
.nf
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
option new-static-routes code 201 = array of {
|
|
|
|
|
ip-address, ip-address, ip-address, integer 8 };
|
|
|
|
|
option static-routes
|
|
|
|
|
10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 net-0-rtr.example.com 1,
|
|
|
|
|
10.0.1.0 255.255.255.0 net-1-rtr.example.com 1,
|
|
|
|
|
10.2.0.0 255.255.224.0 net-2-0-rtr.example.com 3;

.SH VENDOR ENCAPSULATED OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
|
The DHCP protocol defines the \fB vendor-encapsulated-options\fR
|
|
|
|
|
option, which allows vendors to define their own options that will be
|
|
|
|
|
sent encapsulated in a standard DHCP option. The format of the
|
|
|
|
|
.B vendor-encapsulated-options
|
|
|
|
|
option is either a series of bytes whose format is not specified, or
|
|
|
|
|
a sequence of options, each of which consists of a single-byte
|
|
|
|
|
vendor-specific option code, followed by a single-byte length,
|
|
|
|
|
followed by as many bytes of data as are specified in the length (the
|
|
|
|
|
length does not include itself or the option code).
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The value of this option can be set in one of two ways. The first
|
|
|
|
|
way is to simply specify the data directly, using a text string or a
|
2001-08-03 17:34:08 +04:00
|
|
|
colon-separated list of hexadecimal values. For example:
|
2001-08-03 15:35:28 +04:00
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
.nf
|
|
|
|
|
option vendor-encapsulated-options
|
|
|
|
|
2:4:AC:11:41:1:
|
|
|
|
|
3:12:73:75:6e:64:68:63:70:2d:73:65:72:76:65:72:31:37:2d:31:
|
|
|
|
|
4:12:2f:65:78:70:6f:72:74:2f:72:6f:6f:74:2f:69:38:36:70:63;
|
|
|
|
|
.fi
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The second way of setting the value of this option is to have the DHCP
|
|
|
|
|
server generate a vendor-specific option buffer. To do this, you
|
|
|
|
|
must do four things: define an option space, define some options in
|
|
|
|
|
that option space, provide values for them, and specify that that
|
|
|
|
|
option space should be used to generate the
|
|
|
|
|
.B vendor-encapsulated-options
|
|
|
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
To define a new option space in which vendor options can be stored,
|
|
|
|
|
use the \fRoption space\fP statement:
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
.B option
|
|
|
|
|
.B space
|
|
|
|
|
.I name
|
|
|
|
|
.B ;
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The name can then be used in option definitions, as described earlier in
|
|
|
|
|
this document. For example:
|
|
|
|
|
.nf
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
option space SUNW;
|
|
|
|
|
option SUNW.server-address code 2 = ip-address;
|
|
|
|
|
option SUNW.server-name code 3 = text;
|
|
|
|
|
option SUNW.root-path code 4 = text;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.fi
|
|
|
|
|
Once you have defined an option space and the format of some options,
|
|
|
|
|
you can set up scopes that define values for those options, and you
|
|
|
|
|
can say when to use them. For example, suppose you want to handle
|
|
|
|
|
two different classes of clients. Using the option space definition
|
|
|
|
|
shown in the previous example, you can send different option values to
|
|
|
|
|
different clients based on the vendor-class-identifier option that the
|
|
|
|
|
clients send, as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
.nf
|
|
|
|
|
class "vendor-classes" {
|
|
|
|
|
match option vendor-class-identifier;
|
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
option SUNW.server-address 172.17.65.1;
|
|
|
|
|
option SUNW.server-name "sundhcp-server17-1";
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
subclass "vendor-classes" "SUNW.Ultra-5_10" {
|
|
|
|
|
vendor-option-space SUNW;
|
|
|
|
|
option SUNW.root-path "/export/root/sparc";
|
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
subclass "vendor-classes" "SUNW.i86pc" {
|
|
|
|
|
vendor-option-space SUNW;
|
|
|
|
|
option SUNW.root-path "/export/root/i86pc";
|
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
.fi
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
As you can see in the preceding example, regular scoping rules apply,
|
|
|
|
|
so you can define values that are global in the global scope, and only
|
|
|
|
|
define values that are specific to a particular class in the local
|
|
|
|
|
scope. The \fBvendor-option-space\fR declaration tells the DHCP
|
|
|
|
|
server to use options in the SUNW option space to construct the
|
|
|
|
|
.B vendor-encapsulated-options
|
|
|
|
|
option.
