JSON/HTTP REST

[Tom Pusateri]

I've been looking at the OMAPI object interface and noticed the similarity to a more popular object interface now in use (JSON over HTTP in a RESTful way). Would ISC DHCP developers be receptive to accepting patches for a JSON interface to augment the current OMAPI object interface?

Security could be provided by a client certificate over TLS to ensure only authorized clients can connect.

I'm not opposed to OMAPI but there are tons of tools that already do JSON and it would make a web interface to the DHCP server a simple task.

I would be interested in tackling this but if there's resistance, I won't bother.

Thanks,
Tom
