2018-01-23For DHCP client configuration control the setting of the broadcast flag in theNeale Ranns1-1/+7
DISCOVER message sent. According to RFC2131: In the case of a client using DHCP for initial configuration (before the client's TCP/IP software has been completely configured), DHCP requires creative use of the client's TCP/IP software and liberal interpretation of RFC 1122. The TCP/IP software SHOULD accept and forward to the IP layer any IP packets delivered to the client's hardware address before the IP address is configured; DHCP servers and BOOTP relay agents may not be able to deliver DHCP messages to clients that cannot accept hardware unicast datagrams before the TCP/IP software is configured. To work around some clients that cannot accept IP unicast datagrams before the TCP/IP software is configured as discussed in the previous paragraph, DHCP uses the 'flags' field [21]. The leftmost bit is defined as the BROADCAST (B) flag. The semantics of this flag are discussed in section 4.1 of this document. The remaining bits of the flags field are reserved for future use. They MUST be set to zero by clients and ignored by servers and relay agents. Figure 2 gives the format of the 'flags' field. this changes means VPP conforms to the: "SHOULD accept and forward to the IP layer any IP packets delivered to the client's hardware address before the IP address is configured" with the caveat that VPP allows DHCP packets destined to the stanard client DHCP port to be delivered. With this enhancement the control-plane is now able to choose the setting of the broadcast flag. Change-Id: Ia4eb2c9bb1e30c29f9192facc645e9533641955a Signed-off-by: Neale Ranns <nranns@cisco.com>

2017-10-24Add extern to *_main global variable declarations in header files.Dave Wallace1-1/+1
- Global variables declared in header files without the use of the 'extern' keword will result in multiple instances of the variable to be created by the compiler -- one for each different source file in which the the header file is included. This results in wasted memory allocated in the BSS segments as well as potentially introducing bugs in the application.

the existing seeting of client_id to a VPP version number was unused and so overridden Change-Id: If9ebea936336f1fcca8d07e67186c95f8f8f0ccd Signed-off-by: Neale Ranns <nranns@cisco.com>
2017-02-16Consolidate DHCP v4 and V6 implementation. No functional change intendedNeale Ranns1-1/+1
The DHCP proxy and VSS information maintained by VPP is the same for v4 and v6, so we can manage this state using the same code. Packet handling is cleary different, so this is kept separate. Change-Id: I10f10cc1f7f19debcd4c4b099c6de64e56bb0c69 Signed-off-by: Neale Ranns <nranns@cisco.com>
2017-02-21dhcp: multiple additionsNeale Ranns1-0/+3
DHCP additions: 1) DHCPv4 will only relay a message back to the client, if the Option82 information is present. So make this the default. 2) It is no longer possible to select via the API to "insert circuit ID" - since this is now default 3) Remove the version 2 API since it's now the same as version 1. 4) Adding the VSS option is now conditional only on the presence of VSS config (not the 'insert' option in the set API) 5) DHCP proxy dump via API Change-Id: Ia7271ba8c1d4dbf34a02c401d268ccfbb1b74f17 Signed-off-by: Neale Ranns <nranns@cisco.com>
