+
+``libdhcp_cb_cmds.so``: Configuration Backend Commands
+======================================================
+
+This hook library is used to manage Kea
+servers' configurations in a configuration backend database. This library must
+be used in conjunction with the available CB hook libraries implementing
+the common APIs to create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) the
+configuration information in the respective databases. For example:
+:ischooklib:`libdhcp_mysql_cb.so` implements this API for MySQL while
+:ischooklib:`libdhcp_pgsql_cb.so` implements this API for PostgreSQL.
+To manage the configuration information in a MySQL database, both
+:ischooklib:`libdhcp_mysql_cb.so` and :ischooklib:`libdhcp_cb_cmds.so`
+must be loaded by the server used for the configuration management.
+To manage the configuration information in a PostgreSQL database, both
+:ischooklib:`libdhcp_pgsql_cb.so` and :ischooklib:`libdhcp_cb_cmds.so`
+must be loaded by the server used for the configuration management.
+
+More information on how to configure the Configuration Backend hook library for
+use with a MySQL or PostgreSQL database can be found in the :ref:`dhcp4-cb`
+and :ref:`dhcp6-cb` sections.
+
+.. note::
+
+    :ischooklib:`libdhcp_cb_cmds.so` is available only to ISC customers with
+    a paid support contract. For more information on subscription options,
+    please complete the form at https://www.isc.org/contact.
+
+.. note::
+
+   This library can only be loaded by the :iscman:`kea-dhcp4` or
+   :iscman:`kea-dhcp6` process.
+
+.. note::
+
+   Please read about :ref:`cb-limitations` before using the commands
+   described in this section.
+
+Command Structure
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+There are 5 types of commands supported by this library:
+
+-  ``del`` - delete the selected object from the database, e.g.
+   :isccmd:`remote-global-parameter4-del`.
+
+-  ``get`` - fetch the selected object from the database, e.g.
+   :isccmd:`remote-subnet4-get-by-id`.
+
+-  ``get-all`` - fetch all objects of the particular type from the
+   database, e.g. :isccmd:`remote-option-def4-get-all`.
+
+-  ``list`` - list all objects of the particular type in the database,
+   e.g. :isccmd:`remote-network4-list`; this class of commands returns brief
+   information about each object compared to the output of ``get-all``.
+
+-  ``set`` - creates or replaces an object of the given type in the
+   database, e.g. :isccmd:`remote-option4-global-set`.
+
+All types of commands accept an optional ``remote`` map which selects the
+database instance to which the command refers. For example:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+   {
+       "command": "remote-subnet4-list",
+       "arguments": {
+           "remote": {
+               "type": "mysql",
+               "host": "192.0.2.33",
+               "port": 3302
+           }
+       }
+   }
+
+selects the MySQL database, running on host 192.0.2.33 and port 3302, to
+fetch the list of subnets from. All parameters in the ``remote`` argument are
+optional. The ``port`` parameter can be only specified in conjunction
+with the ``host``. If no options in the ``remote`` parameter are to
+be specified, the parameter should be omitted. In this case, the server
+will use the first backend listed in the ``config-control`` map within
+the configuration of the server receiving the command.
+
+.. note::
+
+   In the current Kea release, it is only possible to configure the Kea server
+   to use a single configuration backend. Strictly speaking, it is
+   possible to point the Kea server to at most one database (either MySQL or
+   PostgreSQL) using the ``config-control`` parameter. Therefore, the ``remote``
+   parameter may be omitted in the commands and :ischooklib:`libdhcp_cb_cmds.so`
+   uses the sole backend by default.  The example commands below most often show a
+   value of "mysql" for the ``type`` parameter; it should be assumed that the
+   value is "postgresql" for installations using a PostgreSQL database.
+
+.. _cb-cmds-dhcp:
+
+Control Commands for DHCP Servers
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This section describes and gives some examples of the control commands
+implemented by :ischooklib:`libdhcp_cb_cmds.so`, to manage the
+configuration information of the DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 servers. Many of the
+commands are almost identical between DHCPv4 and DHCPv6; they only
+differ by the command name. Other commands differ slightly by the
+structure of the inserted data; for example, the structure of the IPv4 subnet
+information is different than that of the IPv6 subnet.
+Nevertheless, they still share the structure of their command arguments
+and thus it makes sense to describe them together.
+
+In addition, whenever the text in the subsequent sections refers to a
+DHCP command or DHCP parameter, it refers to both DHCPv4 and DHCPv6
+variants. The text specific to the particular server type refers to them
+as: DHCPv4 command, DHCPv4 parameter, DHCPv6 command, DHCPv6 parameter,
+etc.
+
+.. _cb-cmds-metadata:
+
+Metadata
+~~~~~~~~
+
+The typical response to the ``get`` or ``list`` command includes a list
+of returned objects (e.g. subnets), and each such object contains the
+``metadata`` map with some database-specific information describing this
+object. In other words, the metadata contains any information about the
+fetched object which may be useful for an administrator but which is not
+part of the object specification from the DHCP server standpoint. In the
+present Kea release, the metadata is limited to the ``server-tag``. It
+describes the association of the object with a particular server or
+all servers.
+
+The following is the example response to the :isccmd:`remote-network4-list`
+command, which includes the metadata:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+   {
+       "result": 0,
+       "text": "1 IPv4 shared network(s) found.",
+       "arguments": {
+           "shared-networks": [
+               {
+                   "name": "level3",
+                   "metadata": {
+                       "server-tags": [ "all" ]
+                   }
+               }
+           ],
+           "count": 1
+       }
+   }
+
+
+Client implementations must not assume that the metadata contains only
+the ``server-tags`` parameter. In future releases, it is expected that this
+map will be extended with additional information, e.g. object modification
+time, log message created during the last modification, etc.

+.. _command-remote-server6-del:
+
+The ``remote-server4-del``, ``remote-server6-del`` Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This command is used to delete the information about a selected DHCP server from
+the configuration database. The server is identified by a unique case
+insensitive server tag. For example:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "command": "remote-server4-del",
+        "arguments": {
+            "servers": [
+                {
+                    "server-tag": "server1"
+                }
+            ],
+            "remote": {
+                "type": "postgresql"
+            }
+        }
+    }
+
+As a result of this command, all associations of the configuration for the
+user-defined server called "server1" are removed from the database, including
+non-shareable configuration information, such as global parameters, option
+definitions, and global options. Any shareable configuration information,
+i.e. the configuration elements which may
+be associated with more than one server, is preserved. In particular, the
+subnets and shared networks associated with the deleted servers are
+preserved. If any of the shareable configuration elements was associated only
+with the deleted server, this object becomes unassigned (orphaned). For
+example: if a subnet has been created and associated with "server1" using
+the :isccmd:`remote-subnet4-set` command and "server1" is subsequently deleted, the
+subnet remains in the database but no servers can use this subnet. The
+subnet can be updated using the :isccmd:`remote-subnet4-set` command, and can be
+associated with either another server or with all servers, using the special
+server tag "all". Such a subnet can be also deleted from the database
+using the :isccmd:`remote-subnet4-del-by-id` or
+:isccmd:`remote-subnet4-del-by-prefix` command, if it is no longer needed.
+
+The following is the successful response to the :isccmd:`remote-server4-del` command:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "result": 0,
+        "text": "1 DHCPv4 server(s) deleted.",
+        "arguments": {
+            "count": 1
+        }
+    }
+
+
+.. warning::
+
+   The :isccmd:`remote-server4-del` and
+   :isccmd:`remote-server6-del` commands must be used with
+   care, because an accidental deletion of the server can cause some parts of the
+   existing configurations to be lost permanently from the database. This
+   operation is not reversible. Re-creation of the accidentally deleted server
+   does not revert the lost configuration for that server and such configuration
+   must be re-created manually by the user.
+
+.. isccmd:: remote-server4-get
+.. _command-remote-server4-get:
+.. isccmd:: remote-server6-get
+.. _command-remote-server6-get:
+
+The ``remote-server4-get``, ``remote-server6-get`` Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This command is used to fetch the information about the selected DHCP server
+from the configuration database. For example:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "command": "remote-server6-get",
+        "arguments": {
+            "servers": [
+                {
+                    "server-tag": "server1"
+                }
+            ],
+            "remote": {
+                "type": "mysql"
+            }
+        }
+    }
+
+
+This command fetches the information about the DHCPv6 server identified by the
+server tag "server1". The server tag is case-insensitive. A successful response
+returns basic information about the server, such as the server tag and the user's
+description of the server:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "result": 0,
+        "text": "DHCP server server1 found.",
+        "arguments": {
+            "servers": [
+                {
+                    "server-tag": "server1",
+                    "description": "A DHCPv6 server located on the first floor."
+                }
+            ],
+            "count": 1
+        }
+    }
+
+.. isccmd:: remote-server4-get-all
+.. _command-remote-server4-get-all:
+.. isccmd:: remote-server6-get-all
+.. _command-remote-server6-get-all:
+
+The ``remote-server4-get-all``, ``remote-server6-get-all`` Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This command is used to fetch all user-defined DHCPv4 or DHCPv6 servers from the
+database. The command structure is very simple:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "command": "remote-server4-get-all",
+        "arguments": {
+            "remote": {
+                "type": "mysql"
+            }
+        }
+    }
+
+The response includes basic information about each server, such as its server
+tag and description:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "result": 0,
+        "text": "DHCPv4 servers found.",
+        "arguments": {
+            "servers": [
+                {
+                    "server-tag": "server1",
+                    "description": "A DHCP server located on the first floor."
+                },
+                {
+                    "server-tag": "server2",
+                    "description": "An old DHCP server to be soon replaced."
+                }
+            ],
+           "count": 2
+        }
+    }
+
+.. isccmd:: remote-server4-set
+.. _command-remote-server4-set:
+.. isccmd:: remote-server6-set
+.. _command-remote-server6-set:
+
+The ``remote-server4-set``, ``remote-server6-set`` Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This command is used to create or replace an information about a DHCP server in
+the database. The information about the server must be created when there is a
+need to differentiate the configurations used by various Kea instances
+connecting to the same database. Various configuration elements, e.g. global
+parameters, subnets, etc. may be explicitly associated with the selected servers
+(using server tags as identifiers), allowing only these servers to use the
+respective configuration elements. Using the particular server tag to make such
+associations is only possible when the server information has been stored in the
+database via the :isccmd:`remote-server4-set` or
+:isccmd:`remote-server6-set` commands. The
+following command creates a new (or updates an existing) DHCPv6 server in the
+database:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "command": "remote-server6-set",
+        "arguments": {
+            "servers": [
+                {
+                    "server-tag": "server1",
+                    "description": "A DHCP server on the ground floor."
+                }
+            ],
+            "remote": {
+                "type": "mysql"
+            }
+        }
+    }
+
+The server tag must be unique across all servers in the database. When the
+server information under the given server tag already exists, it is replaced
+with the new information. The specified server tag is case-insensitive, and the
+maximum length of the server tag is 256 characters. The following keywords are
+reserved and cannot be used as server tags: "all" and "any".
+
+The following is the example response to the above command:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "result": 0,
+        "text": "DHCPv6 server successfully set.",
+        "arguments": {
+            "servers": [
+                {
+                    "server-tag": "server1",
+                    "description": "A DHCP server on the ground floor."
+                }
+            ]
+        }
+    }
+
+
+.. isccmd:: remote-global-parameter4-del
+.. _command-remote-global-parameter4-del:
+
+.. isccmd:: remote-global-parameter6-del
+.. _command-remote-global-parameter6-del:
+
+The ``remote-global-parameter4-del``, ``remote-global-parameter6-del`` Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+These commands are used to delete a global DHCP parameter from the
+configuration database. When the parameter is deleted from the database,
+the server uses the value specified in the configuration file for
+this parameter, or a default value if the parameter is not specified in
+the configuration file.
+
+The following command attempts to delete the DHCPv4 ``renew-timer``
+parameter common for all servers from the database:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+   {
+       "command": "remote-global-parameter4-del",
+       "arguments": {
+           "parameters": [ "renew-timer" ],
+           "remote": {
+               "type": "mysql"
+            },
+           "server-tags": [ "all" ]
+       }
+   }
+
+If a server-specific parameter is to be deleted, the
+``server-tags`` list must contain the tag of the appropriate
+server. There must be exactly one server tag specified in this list.
+
+.. isccmd:: remote-global-parameter4-get
+.. _command-remote-global-parameter4-get:
+
+.. isccmd:: remote-global-parameter6-get
+.. _command-remote-global-parameter6-get:
+
+The ``remote-global-parameter4-get``, ``remote-global-parameter6-get`` Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+These commands are used to fetch a scalar global DHCP parameter from the
+configuration database.
+
+The following command attempts to fetch the ``boot-file-name``
+parameter for "server1":
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+   {
+       "command": "remote-global-parameter4-get",
+       "arguments": {
+           "parameters": [ "boot-file-name" ],
+            "remote": {
+                "type": "mysql"
+            },
+            "server-tags": [ "server1" ]
+       }
+   }
+
+
+The returned value has one of the four scalar types: string, integer,
+real, or boolean. Non-scalar global configuration parameters, such as map
+or list, are not returned by this command.
+
+In the case of the example above, the string value is returned, e.g.:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+   {
+       "result": 0,
+       "text": "1 DHCPv4 global parameter found.",
+       "arguments": {
+           "parameters": {
+               "boot-file-name": "/dev/null",
+               "metadata": {
+                   "server-tags": [ "all" ]
+               }
+           },
+           "count": 1
+       }
+   }
+
+
+Note that the response above indicates that the returned parameter is associated
+with "all" servers rather than "server1", used in the command. This indicates
+that there is no "server1"-specific value in the database and therefore, the value
+shared by all servers is returned. If there were a "server1"-specific value
+in the database, that value would be returned instead.
+
+The example response for the integer value is:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+   {
+       "result": 0,
+       "text": "1 DHCPv4 global parameter found.",
+       "arguments": {
+           "parameters": {
+               "renew-timer": 2000,
+               "metadata": {
+                   "server-tags": [ "server1" ]
+               }
+           },
+           "count": 1
+       }
+   }
+
+
+The real value:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+   {
+       "result": 0,
+       "text": "1 DHCPv4 global parameter found.",
+       "arguments": {
+           "parameters": {
+               "t1-percent": 0.85,
+               "metadata": {
+                   "server-tags": [ "all" ]
+               }
+           },
+           "count": 1
+       }
+   }
+
+
+Finally, the boolean value:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+   {
+       "result": 0,
+       "text": "1 DHCPv4 global parameter found.",
+       "arguments": {
+           "parameters": {
+               "match-client-id": true,
+               "metadata": {
+                   "server-tags": [ "server2" ]
+               }
+           },
+           "count": 1
+       }
+   }
+

+.. _command-remote-global-parameter6-get-all:
+
+The ``remote-global-parameter4-get-all``, ``remote-global-parameter6-get-all`` Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+These commands are used to fetch all global DHCP parameters from the database
+for the specified server. The following example demonstrates how to fetch all
+global parameters to be used by the server "server1":
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "command": "remote-global-parameter4-get-all",
+        "arguments": {
+            "remote": {
+                "type": "mysql"
+            },
+            "server-tags": [ "server1" ]
+        }
+    }
+
+The example response may look as follows:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "result": 0,
+        "text": "DHCPv4 global parameters found.",
+        "arguments": {
+            "parameters": [
+                {
+                    "boot-file-name": "/dev/null",
+                    "metadata": {
+                        "server-tags": [ "server1" ]
+                    }
+                },
+                {
+                    "match-client-id": true,
+                    "metadata": {

+            ],
+            "count": 2
+        }
+    }
+
+
+The example response contains two parameters: one string parameter and one
+boolean parameter. The metadata returned for each parameter indicates
+whether this parameter is specific to "server1" or applies to all servers. Since the
+``match-client-id`` value is associated with "all" servers,
+it indicates that there is no "server1"-specific setting for this parameter.
+Each parameter always has exactly one server tag associated with it, because
+global parameters are non-shareable configuration elements.
+
+.. note::
+
+   If the server tag is set to "all" in the command, the response will
+   contain only the global parameters associated with the logical server
+   "all". When the server tag points to the specific server (as in the
+   example above), the returned list combines parameters associated with
+   this server and all servers, but the former take precedence.

+
+The ``remote-global-parameter4-set``, ``remote-global-parameter6-set`` Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This command is used to create scalar global DHCP parameters in the
+database. If any of the parameters already exists, its value is replaced
+as a result of this command. It is possible to set multiple parameters
+within a single command, each having one of the four types: string,
+integer, real, or boolean. For example:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+   {
+       "command": "remote-global-parameter4-set",
+       "arguments": {
+           "parameters": {
+               "boot-file-name": "/dev/null",
+               "renew-timer": 2000,
+               "t1-percent": 0.85,
+               "match-client-id": true
+           },
+           "remote": {
+               "type": "mysql"
+           },
+           "server-tags": [ "server1" ]
+       }
+   }
+
+An error is returned if any of the parameters is not supported by the DHCP
+server or its type does not match. Care should be taken when multiple parameters
+are specified in a single command, because it is possible that only some of the
+parameters will be stored successfully and some will fail. If an error occurs when
+processing this command, it is recommended to use
+:isccmd:`remote-global-parameter4-get-all` or
+:isccmd:`remote-global-parameter6-get-all`
+to check which of the parameters have
+been stored/updated successfully and which have failed.
+
+The ``server-tags`` list is mandatory and must contain a single server tag or
+the keyword "all". In the example above, all specified parameters are associated
+with the "server1" server.

+
+The ``remote-network4-del``, ``remote-network6-del`` Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+These commands are used to delete an IPv4 or IPv6 shared network from
+the database. The optional parameter ``subnets-action`` determines
+whether the subnets belonging to the deleted shared network should also
+be deleted or preserved. The ``subnets-action`` parameter defaults to ``keep``,
+which preserves the subnets. If it is set to ``delete``, the subnets are
+deleted along with the shared network.
+
+The following command:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+   {
+       "command": "remote-network6-del",
+       "arguments": {
+           "shared-networks": [
+               {
+                   "name": "level3"
+               }
+           ],
+           "subnets-action": "keep",
+           "remote": {
+               "type": "mysql"
+           }
+       }
+   }
+
+
+deletes the "level3" IPv6 shared network. The subnets are preserved, but
+they are disassociated from the deleted shared network and become
+global. This behavior corresponds to the behavior of the
+:isccmd:`network4-del`, :isccmd:`network6-del` commands with respect to the
+``subnets-action`` parameter.
+
+Note that the ``server-tags`` parameter cannot be used for this command.

+
+The ``remote-network4-get``, ``remote-network6-get`` Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+These commands are used to retrieve information about an IPv4 or
+IPv6 shared network. The optional parameter ``subnets-include`` denotes
+whether the subnets belonging to the shared network should also be
+returned. This parameter defaults to ``no``, in which case the subnets
+are not returned. If this parameter is set to ``full``, the subnets are
+returned together with the shared network.
+
+The following command fetches the "level3" IPv6 shared network along
+with the full information about the subnets belonging to it:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+   {
+       "command": "remote-network6-get",

+               "type": "mysql"
+           }
+       }
+   }
+
+Note that the ``server-tags`` parameter cannot be used for this command.

+.. _command-remote-network6-list:
+
+The ``remote-network4-list``, ``remote-network6-list`` Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+These commands are used to list all IPv4 or IPv6 shared networks for a server.
+
+The following command retrieves all shared networks to be used by
+"server1" and "server2":
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "command": "remote-network4-list",
+        "arguments": {
+            "remote": {
+                "type": "mysql"
+            },
+            "server-tags": [ "server1", "server2" ]
+        }
+    }
+
+The ``server-tags`` parameter is mandatory and contains one or more server
+tags. It may contain the keyword "all" to fetch the shared networks associated
+with all servers. When the ``server-tags`` list contains the
+``null`` value, the returned response contains a list of unassigned shared
+networks, i.e. the networks which are associated with no servers. For example:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "command": "remote-network4-list",
+        "arguments": {
+            "remote": {
+                "type": "mysql"
+            },
+            "server-tags": [ null ]
+        }
+    }
+
+The example response to this command when non-null server tags are specified
+looks similar to this:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "result": 0,
+        "text": "3 IPv4 shared network(s) found.",
+        "arguments": {
+            "shared-networks": [
+                {
+                    "name": "ground floor",
+                    "metadata": {
+                        "server-tags": [ "all" ]
+                    }
+                },
+                {
+                    "name": "floor2",
+                    "metadata": {
+                        "server-tags": [ "server1" ]
+                    }
+                },
+                {
+                    "name": "floor3",
+                    "metadata": {
+                        "server-tags": [ "server2" ]
+                    }
+                }
+            ],
+            "count": 3
+        }
+    }
+
+The returned information about each shared network merely contains the shared
+network name and the metadata. To fetch detailed information about
+the selected shared network, use the :isccmd:`remote-network4-get` or
+:isccmd:`remote-network6-get` command.
+
+The example response above contains three shared networks. One of the
+shared networks is associated with all servers, so it is included in
+the list of shared networks to be used by "server1" and "server2".
+The remaining two shared networks are returned because one of them
+is associated with "server1" and another one is associated with
+"server2".
+
+When listing unassigned shared networks, the response looks similar
+to this:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "result": 0,
+        "text": "1 IPv4 shared network(s) found.",
+        "arguments": {
+            "shared-networks": [
+                {
+                    "name": "fancy",
+                    "metadata": {
+                        "server-tags": [ null ]
+                    }
+                }
+            ],
+            "count": 1
+        }
+    }
+
+The ``null`` value in the metadata indicates that the
+returned shared network is unassigned.

+
+The ``remote-network4-set``, ``remote-network6-set`` Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+These commands create a new or replace an existing IPv4 or IPv6 shared
+network in the database. The structure of the shared network information
+is the same as in the Kea configuration file (see
+:ref:`shared-network4` and :ref:`shared-network6` for details),
+except that specifying subnets along with the shared
+network information is not allowed. Including the ``subnet4`` or ``subnet6`` parameter
+within the shared network information results in an error.
+
+These commands are intended to be used for managing the shared
+network-specific information and DHCP options. To associate and
+disassociate the subnets with the shared networks, the
+:isccmd:`remote-subnet4-set`, :isccmd:`remote-subnet6-set`
+commands should be used.
+
+The following command adds the IPv6 shared network "level3" to the
+database:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+   {
+       "command": "remote-network6-set",
+       "arguments": {
+           "shared-networks": [
+               {
+                   "name": "level3",
+                   "interface": "eth0",
+                   "option-data": [ {
+                       "name": "sntp-servers",
+                       "data": "2001:db8:1::1"
+                   } ]
+               }
+           ],
+           "remote": {
+               "type": "mysql"
+           },
+           "server-tags": [ "all" ]
+       }
+   }
+
+
+This command includes the ``interface`` parameter, which sets the shared
+network-level interface name. Any remaining shared-network level parameters,
+which are not specified with the command, will be marked as
+"unspecified" in the database. The DHCP server uses the global
+values for unspecified parameters or, if the global values are not
+specified, the default values are used.
+
+The ``server-tags`` list is mandatory for this command and must include one or
+more server tags. As a result, the shared network is associated with all listed
+servers. The shared network may be associated with all servers connecting to the
+database when the keyword "all" is included.
+
+.. note::
+
+   As with other "set" commands, this command replaces all the
+   information about the given shared network in the database, if the
+   shared network already exists. Therefore, when sending this command,
+   make sure to always include all parameters that must be specified for
+   the updated shared-network instance. Any unspecified parameter will
+   be marked unspecified in the database, even if its value was present
+   prior to sending the command.

+   }
+
+
+deletes the definition of the option associated with "server1", having the
+code of 1 and belonging to the option space "isc". The default option spaces are
+"dhcp4" and "dhcp6" for the DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 top-level options, respectively. If
+there is no such option explicitly associated with "server1", no option is
+deleted. To delete an option belonging to "all" servers, the keyword

+The ``remote-option4-global-set``, ``remote-option6-global-set`` Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+These commands create a new global DHCP option or replace an existing
+option in the database. The structure of the option information is the
+same as in the Kea configuration file (see :ref:`dhcp4-std-options`
+and :ref:`dhcp6-std-options`). For example:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+   {
+       "command": "remote-option6-global-set",
+       "arguments": {
+           "options": [

+           },
+           "server-tags": [ "server1" ]
+       }
+   }
+
+The ``server-tags`` list is mandatory for this command
+and must include exactly one server tag or the keyword "all"; it cannot
+include the ``null`` value. The command above associates
+the option with the "server1" server.
+
+Note that specifying an option name instead of the option code only
+works reliably for standard DHCP options. When specifying a value
+for a user-defined DHCP option, the option code should be indicated
+instead of the name. For example:

+
+These commands are used to delete a shared-network-specific DHCP
+option from the database. The option is identified by an option code

+shared network, no option is deleted. In particular, the given
+option may be present for a subnet belonging to the shared network.
+Such an option instance is not affected by this command as this
+command merely deletes the shared-network level option. To
+delete a subnet-level option, the :isccmd:`remote-option4-subnet-del`,

+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This is the second variant of the commands used to fetch an IPv4 or IPv6

+           "remote": {
+               "type": "mysql"
+           }
+       }
+   }
+
+The ``server-tags`` parameter cannot be used with this command.

+.. _command-remote-subnet6-list:
+
+The ``remote-subnet4-list``, ``remote-subnet6-list`` Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+These commands are used to list all IPv4 or IPv6 subnets from the database for
+selected servers or all servers. The following command retrieves all servers to
+be used by "server1" and "server2":
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "command": "remote-subnet4-list",
+        "arguments": {
+            "remote": {
+                "type": "mysql"
+            },
+            "server-tags": [ "server1", "server2" ]
+        }
+    }
+
+The ``server-tags`` parameter is mandatory and contains one or
+more server tags. It may contain the keyword "all", to fetch the subnets
+associated with all servers. When the ``server-tags`` list
+contains the ``null`` value, the returned response contains a list
+of unassigned subnets, i.e. the subnets which are associated with no servers.
+For example:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "command": "remote-subnet4-list",
+        "arguments": {
+            "remote": {
+                "type": "mysql"
+            },
+            "server-tags": [ null ]
+        }
+    }
+
+The example response to this command when non-null server tags are specified
+looks similar to this:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "result": 0,
+        "text": "2 IPv4 subnet(s) found.",
+        "arguments": {
+            "subnets": [
+                {
+                    "id": 1,
+                    "subnet": "192.0.2.0/24",
+                    "shared-network-name": null,
+                    "metadata": {
+                        "server-tags": [ "server1", "server2" ]
+                    }
+                },
+                {
+                    "id": 2,
+                    "subnet": "192.0.3.0/24",
+                    "shared-network-name": null,
+                    "metadata": {
+                        "server-tags": [ "all" ]
+                    }
+                }
+            ],
+            "count": 2
+        }
+    }
+
+The returned information about each subnet is limited to the subnet identifier,
+prefix, and associated shared network name. To retrieve full
+information about the selected subnet, use
+the :isccmd:`remote-subnet4-get-by-id`, :isccmd:`remote-subnet6-get-by-id` commands
+or the :isccmd:`remote-subnet4-get-by-prefix`, :isccmd:`remote-subnet6-get-by-prefix` commands.
+
+The example response above contains two subnets. One of the subnets is
+associated with both servers: "server1" and "server2". The second subnet is
+associated with all servers, so it is also present in the configurations for
+"server1" and "server2".
+
+When listing unassigned subnets, the response will look similar to this:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "result": 0,
+        "text": "1 IPv4 subnet(s) found.",
+        "arguments": {
+            "subnets": [
+                {
+                    "id": 3,
+                    "subnet": "192.0.4.0/24",
+                    "shared-network-name": null,
+                    "metadata": {
+                        "server-tags": [ null ]
+                    }
+                }
+            ],
+            "count": 1
+        }
+    }
+
+The ``null`` value in the metadata indicates that the
+returned subnet is unassigned.

+.. _command-remote-subnet6-set:
+
+The ``remote-subnet4-set``, ``remote-subnet6-set`` Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+These commands are used to create a new IPv4 or IPv6 subnet or replace
+an existing subnet in the database. Setting the subnet also associates
+or disassociates the subnet with a shared network.
+
+The structure of the subnet information is similar to the structure used
+in the configuration file (see :ref:`dhcp4-configuration` and
+:ref:`dhcp6-configuration`). The subnet information conveyed in the
+:isccmd:`remote-subnet4-set`, :isccmd:`remote-subnet6-set` commands
+must include the additional parameter
+``shared-network-name``, which denotes whether the subnet belongs to a
+shared network.
+
+Consider the following example:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+   {
+       "command": "remote-subnet4-set",
+       "arguments": {
+           "subnets": [
+               {
+                   "id": 5,
+                   "subnet": "192.0.2.0/24",
+                   "shared-network-name": "level3",
+                   "pools": [ { "pool": "192.0.2.100-192.0.2.200" } ],
+                   "option-data": [ {
+                       "name": "routers",
+                       "data": "192.0.2.1"
+                   } ]
+               }
+           ],
+           "remote": {
+               "type": "mysql"
+           },
+           "server-tags": [ "all" ]
+       }
+   }
+
+It creates the subnet and associates it with the "level3" shared
+network. The "level3" shared network must be created with the :isccmd:`remote-network4-set`
+command prior to creating the subnet.
+
+If the created subnet must be global - that is, not associated with any shared
+network - the ``shared-network-name`` must be explicitly set to
+``null``:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+   {
+       "command": "remote-subnet4-set",
+       "arguments": {
+           "subnets": [
+               {
+                   "id": 5,
+                   "subnet": "192.0.2.0/24",
+                   "shared-network-name": null,
+                   "pools": [ { "pool": "192.0.2.100-192.0.2.200" } ],
+                   "option-data": [ {
+                       "name": "routers",
+                       "data": "192.0.2.1"
+                   } ]
+              }
+           ],
+           "server-tags": [ "all" ]
+       }
+   }
+
+The subnet created in the previous example is replaced with the new
+subnet having the same parameters, but it becomes global.
+
+The ``shared-network-name`` parameter is mandatory for the
+:isccmd:`remote-subnet4-set` command. The ``server-tags`` list is mandatory and must
+include one or more server tags. As a result, the subnet is associated with all
+of the listed servers. It may also be associated with all servers connecting
+to the database when the keyword "all" is used as the server tag.
+
+.. note::
+
+   As with other "set" commands, this command replaces all the
+   information about the particular subnet in the database, if the
+   subnet information is already present. Therefore, when sending this
+   command, make sure to always include all parameters that must be
+   specified for the updated subnet instance. Any unspecified parameter
+   will be marked as unspecified in the database, even if its value was
+   present prior to sending the command.

+.. _command-remote-class6-get-all:
+
+The ``remote-class4-get-all``, ``remote-class6-get-all`` Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+These commands retrieve all DHCPv4 or DHCPv6 client classes for a particular server,
+multiple explicitly listed servers, and/or all servers. A given server has its own
+server-specific tag and also has the "all" server tag; these commands retrieve
+the classes for both an individual server and for "all" servers. For example, the
+following command retrieves all client classes defined for "server1" as well as
+the client classes defined for "all" servers:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "command": "remote-class4-get-all",
+        "arguments": {
+            "remote": {
+                "type": "mysql"
+            },
+            "server-tags": [ "server1" ]
+        }
+    }
+
+The ``server-tags`` parameter is mandatory and contains one or more server
+tags. If other server tags are specified, "all" does not need to be included
+in ``server-tags``, as every server automatically also has the "all" server tag.
+If ``server-tags`` contains only the keyword "all", only the client classes associated
+with "all" servers are returned. When the ``server-tags`` list contains the
+``null`` value, the returned response contains a list of unassigned client
+classes, i.e. the networks which are associated with no servers.
+
+A response to the command looks similar to this:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "result": 0,
+        "text": "2 DHCPv4 client class(es) found.",

+
+The ``remote-class4-set``, ``remote-class6-set`` Commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+These commands insert a new or replace an existing DHCPv4 or DHCPv6 client class in
+the database. The client class information structure is the same as in the Kea
+configuration file (see :ref:`dhcp4-client-classifier` and
+:ref:`dhcp6-client-classifier` for details).
+
+.. code-block:: json

+    {

+            "client-classes": [
+                {

+                            "code": 224,
+                            "type": "string"
+                        }
+                    ],
+                    "option-data": [
+                        {
+                            "name": "configfile",
+                            "data": "1APC"
+                        }
+                    ]
+                }
+            ],
+            "remote": {
+                "type": "mysql"
+            },
+            "server-tags": [ "all" ]
+        }
+    }
+
+
+Client-class ordering rules described in :ref:`classification-using-expressions`
+apply to the classes inserted into the database. They imply that the class `bar`
+referenced in the test expression must exist in the database when issuing the
+above command.
+
+By default, a new client class is inserted at the end of the class hierarchy in
+the database and can reference any class associated with the same server tag or
+with the special server tag "all". If an existing class is updated, it remains
+at its current position within the class hierarchy.
+
+However, the class commands allow the position of the inserted
+or updated client class to be specified. The optional ``follow-class-name`` parameter can be
+included in the command to indicate the name of the existing class after which
+the managed class should be placed. Suppose there are two DHCPv6 classes in the
+database: `first-class` and `second-class`. To add a new class, `third-class`,
+between these two, use a command similar to the following:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "command": "remote-class6-set",
+        "arguments": {
+            "client-classes": [
+                {
+                    "name": "third-class",
+                    "test": "member('first-class')"
+                }
+            ],
+            "follow-class-name": "first-class",
+            "remote": {
+                "type": "mysql"
+            },
+            "server-tags": [ "all" ]
+        }
+    }
+
+Note that `third-class` can depend on `first-class` because it is placed
+after `first-class`; `third-class` cannot depend on `second-class`
+because it is placed before it. However, `second-class` could be updated to
+depend on `third-class`.
+
+The ``follow-class-name`` parameter can be explicitly set to ``null``, e.g.:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+    {
+        "command": "remote-class6-set",
+        "arguments": {
+            "client-classes": [
+                {
+                    "name": "third-class",
+                    "test": "member('first-class')"
+                }
+            ],
+            "follow-class-name": null,
+            "remote": {
+                "type": "mysql"
+            },
+            "server-tags": [ "all" ]
+        }
+    }
+
+It yields the same behavior as if the ``follow-class-name`` parameter were not included,
+i.e. the new class is appended at the end of the class hierarchy, and the updated
+class remains at the current position.
