2018-01-23For DHCP client configuration control the setting of the broadcast flag in theNeale Ranns1-0/+3
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>
2018-01-23VPPAPIGEN: vppapigen replacement in Python PLY.Ole Troan1-1/+1
This is a version of the VPP API generator in Python PLY. It supports the existing language, and has a plugin architecture for generators. Currently C and JSON are supported. Changes: - vl_api_version to option version = "major.minor.patch" - enum support - Added error checking and reporting - import support (removed the C pre-processor) - services (tying request/reply together) Version: option version = "1.0.0"; Enum: enum colours { RED, BLUE = 50, }; define foo { vl_api_colours_t colours; }; Services: service { rpc foo returns foo_reply; rpc foo_dump returns stream foo_details; rpc want_stats returns want_stats_reply events ip4_counters, ip6_counters; }; Future planned features: - unions - bool, text - array support (including length) - proto3 output plugin - Refactor C/C++ generator as a plugin - Refactor Java generator as a plugin Change-Id: Ifa289966c790e1b1a8e2938a91e69331e3a58bdf Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com>
2017-11-16Add Support of DHCP VSS Type 0 where VPN-ID is ASCIIJohn Lo1-4/+10
Enhence support of DHCP VSS (Virtual Subnet Selection) to include VSS type 0 where VSS info is a NVT (Network Virtual Terminal) ASCII VPN ID where the ASCII string MUST NOT be terminated with a zero byte. Existing code already support VSS type 1, where VSS information is a RFC 2685 VPN-ID of 7 bytes with 3 bytes OUI and 4 bytes VPN index, and VSS type 255 indicating global VPN.

2017-03-07DHCP Multiple Servers (VPP-602, VPP-605)Neale Ranns1-3/+9
Multiple DHCP (4 and/or 6) servers can be added and removed through multiple calls to the 'set dhcp server' API. All 4/6/ discover/solicit messages will then be replicated to all servers in the list. The expectation is that the servers/system is configured in such a way that this is viable. If VSS information is providied for the clinet VRF which also has multiple servers configured, then the same VSS information is sent to each server. Likewise the source address of packets sent to from VPP to each server is the same. Change-Id: I3287cb084c84b3f612b78bc69cfcb5b9c1f8934d Signed-off-by: Neale Ranns <nranns@cisco.com>
2017-02-21dhcp: multiple additionsNeale Ranns1-37/+30
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>
