``kea-dhcp-ddns`` - DHCP-DDNS process in Kea
--------------------------------------------
Synopsis
~~~~~~~~
:program:`kea-dhcp-ddns` [**-v**] [**-V**] [**-W**] [**-d**] [**-c** config-file] [**-t** config-file]
Description
~~~~~~~~~~~
The ``kea-dhcp-ddns`` service process requests an update of DNS mapping
based on DHCP lease-change events. It runs as a separate process that
expects to receive Name Change Requests from Kea DHCP servers.
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 configuration file with the configuration for the DHCP-DDNS 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, a service socket is not opened.
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 ``b10-dhcp-ddns`` process was first coded in May 2013 by Thomas
Markwalder.
Kea became a standalone server and the BIND 10 framework was removed. The
DHCP-DDNS server binary was renamed to kea-dhcp-ddns in July 2014. Kea
1.0.0 was released in December 2015.
