DHCP Protocol Provider
Introduction
The ApacheDS Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) provider implements
Unknown macro: {link}
and
Unknown macro: {link}
to pass configuration information to hosts on a TCP/IP network.
The DHCP provider is implemented plugin into the ApacheDS network layer (MINA). As a plugin, DHCP leverages Apache MINA for front-end services and the Apache Directory read-optimized backing store via JNDI for a persistent store.
The ApacheDS DHCP plugin, in conjunction with MINA and the Apache Directory store, provides an easy-to-use yet fully-featured dynamic configuration service. As implemented within the Apache Directory, DHCP will provide:
- DHCP service (RFC 2131, 2132)
- Vendor extensions (RFC 1497)
- Service Location Protocol (SLP) support (RFC 2608)
- Optional LDAP management
- UDP and TCP Support (MINA)
- Easy POJO embeddability for containers such as Geronimo, JBoss, and OSGi
