# status dhcp is implemented and lightly tested. bootp is not yet implemented. enough room for improvement. # about ip/dhcpd is a dhcpd (it also speaks bootp). see the manual page for more information. # install make sure you have $ROOT set. now run "mk install" to compile and install the files. when building from within inferno, insert SYSHOST=Inferno and ROOT= in the mk invocations to override the values in the mkconfig. # latest version the latest version can be found at: http://www.ueber.net/code/r/dhcpd # licence & author this code was started as an extension to inferno's ip/bootpd, but has been rewritten completely. all files are in the public domain. this code has been written by mechiel lukkien, reachable at [email protected] or [email protected]. # todo - figure out the local ip address from the argument ip address. - make Dhcpmsg less ugly - check that we are serverid from request? - return multiple dns servers when configured - if a lease time is requested, and it's lower than the server-assigned (and reasonable), use the clients lease - honour max message size in request? - logging? - implement bootp requests - dhcp message option overload, for parsing - respond with unicast in same cases (unless broadcast flag is set) - broadcast flag must be set for some cases when sending to giaddr - if giaddr is set in request, allocate address from that subnet? or at least document that we're not doing that. - test with various dhcp/bootp clients - probe to-be-handed-out addresses to verify that they really are free? - make more like plan 9's dhcpd? e.g. dhcp option names.
