The received HTTP requests are decapsulated and forwarded to +the respective Kea services in JSON format. Received JSON responses are +encapsulated within HTTP responses and returned to the controlling +entity. Some commands may be handled by the Control Agent directly, and +not forwarded to any Kea service. + +Arguments +~~~~~~~~~ + +The arguments are as follows: + +``-v`` + Displays the version. + +``-V`` + Displays the extended version. + +``-W`` + Displays the configuration report. + +``-d`` + Sets the logging level to debug with extra verbosity. This is primarily for + development purposes in stand-alone mode. + +``-c config-file`` + Specifies the file with the configuration for the Control Agent + server. It may also contain configuration entries for other Kea + services. + +``-t config-file`` + Checks the syntax of the configuration file and reports the first error, + if any. Note that not all parameters are completely checked; in + particular, service and client sockets are not opened, and hook + libraries are not loaded. + +Documentation +~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Kea comes with an extensive Kea Administrator Reference Manual that covers +all aspects of running the Kea software - compilation, installation, +configuration, configuration examples, and much more. Kea also features a +Kea Messages Manual, which lists all possible messages Kea can print +with a brief description for each of them. Both documents are +available in various formats (.txt, .html, .pdf) with the Kea +distribution. The Kea documentation is available at +https://kea.readthedocs.io. + +Kea source code is documented in the Kea Developer's Guide, +available at https://reports.kea.isc.org/dev_guide/. + +The Kea project website is available at https://kea.isc.org. + +Mailing Lists and Support +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +There are two public mailing lists available for the Kea project. **kea-users** +(kea-users at lists.isc.org) is intended for Kea users, while **kea-dev** +(kea-dev at lists.isc.org) is intended for Kea developers, prospective +contributors, and other advanced users. Both lists are available at +https://lists.isc.org. The community provides best-effort support +on both of those lists. + +ISC provides professional support for Kea services. See +https://www.isc.org/kea/ for details. + +History +~~~~~~~ + +The ``kea-ctrl-agent`` was first coded in December 2016 by Marcin +Siodelski. + +See Also +~~~~~~~~ + +:manpage:`kea-dhcp4(8)`, :manpage:`kea-dhcp6(8)`, +:manpage:`kea-dhcp-ddns(8)`, :manpage:`kea-admin(8)`, :manpage:`keactrl(8)`, +:manpage:`perfdhcp(8)`, :manpage:`kea-lfc(8)`, Kea Administrator Reference Manual. |
