[Kea-users] KEA DHCP4 client classes with mysql

[James Jalbert]

Hello, I hope this is the right list for this.....

I am setting up the KEA DHCP4 server version 3.0.2 and trying to get client
classes to work for my subnets. Here is what I have, and what has worked.

I set up a global host reservation in the dhcp4.conf file. I set the host
reservation with an ip address of one of my subnets and specify
client_classes as the class name I want to use(we will say classa). In my
subnet lists, I am setting a dynamic pool and telling the server, only give
an address from this pool if the class = classa. With the client class set
on the reservation, the machine gets an address, exactly what I want.

Now I am trying to move the host reservation to mysql, as I have
thousands of reservations. However, when I put "classa" under the
dhcp4_client_classes it is not passed on to the server when the client
requests its ip address. I get a message on the server that says failed to
allocate address for client with classes ALL, Vendor_Class......., and
UNKNOWN

Why is the class not being sent from the database to the server?
I have loaded the libdhcp_classes_cmds.so, libdhcp_myslq.so,
libdhcp_hosts_cmds.so, libdhcp_subnet_cmds.so libraries. Anyone have any
thoughts?

Thanks for any help.
