udhcp server (udhcpd)
|
|
|
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The only command line argument to udhcpd is an optional specifed
|
|
|
|
|
config file. If no config file is specified, udhcpd uses the default
|
|
|
|
|
config file, /etc/udhcpd.conf. Ex:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
udhcpd /etc/udhcpd.eth1.conf
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The udhcp server employs a number of simple config files:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
udhcpd.leases
|
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The udhcpd.leases behavior is designed for an embedded system. The
|
|
|
|
|
file is written either every auto_time seconds, or when a SIGUSR1
|
2004-03-15 08:29:22 +00:00
|
|
|
is received (the auto_time timer restarts if a SIGUSR1 is received).
|

|
|
|
If you send a SIGTERM to udhcpd directly after a SIGUSR1, udhcpd will
|
|
|
|
|
finish writing the leases file and wait for the aftermentioned script
|
|
|
|
|
to be executed and finish before quiting, so you do not need to sleep
|
|
|
|
|
between sending signals. When the file is written, a script can be
|
|
|
|
|
optionally called to commit the file to flash. Lease times are stored
|
|
|
|
|
in the file by time remaining in lease (for systems without clock
|
|
|
|
|
that works when there is no power), or by the absolute time that it
|
|
|
|
|
expires in seconds from epoch. In the remaining format, expired leases
|
|
|
|
|
are stored as zero. The file is of the format:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
16 byte MAC
|
|
|
|
|
4 byte ip address
|
|
|
|
|
u32 expire time
|
|
|
|
|
16 byte MAC
|
|
|
|
|
4 byte ip address
|
|
|
|
|
u32 expire time
|
|
|
|
|
.
|
|
|
|
|
etc.

udhcpd.conf
|
|
|
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The format is fairly simple, there is a sample file with all the
|
|
|
|
|
available options and comments describing them in samples/udhcpd.conf
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
compile time options

dhcpd.h contains the other two compile time options:

|
