DESCRIPTION

The kea-dhcp6 daemon provides the DHCPv6 server implementation.

ARGUMENTS

The arguments are as follows:

-v  Displays the Kea version.

-V  Displays the extended Kea version.

-W  Displays the configuration report.

-d  Enables the debug mode with extra verbosity.

-c config-file
    Specifies the configuration file with the configuration for the DHCPv6 server. It may also contain configuration entries for other Kea services.

-t config-file
    Checks the configuration file and reports the first error, if any. Note that not all parameters are completely checked; in particular, service and control channel sockets are not opened, and hook libraries are not loaded.

-T config-file
    Checks the configuration file and reports the first error, if any. It performs extra checks beyond what -t offers, such as establishing database connections (for the lease backend, host reservations backend, configuration backend, and forensic logging backend), loading hook libraries, parsing hook-library configurations, etc. It does not open UNIX or TCP/UDP sockets, nor does it open or rotate files, as any of these actions could interfere with a running process on the same machine.

-p server-port-number
    Specifies the server port number (1-65535) on which the server listens. This is useful for testing purposes only.

-P client-port-number
    Specifies the client port number (1-65535) to which the server responds. This is useful for testing purposes only.

DOCUMENTATION

Kea comes with an extensive Kea Administrator Reference Manual that covers all aspects of running the Kea software - compilation, installation, configuration, configuration examples, and much more. Kea also features a Kea Messages Manual, which lists all possible messages Kea can print with a brief description for each of them. Both documents are available in various formats (.txt, .html, .pdf) with the Kea distribution. The Kea documentation is available at
 <https://kea.readthedocs.io> .

Kea source code is documented in the Kea Developer's Guide, available at <https://reports.kea.isc.org/dev_guide/> .

The Kea project website is available at <https://kea.isc.org> .

MAILING LISTS AND SUPPORT

There are two public mailing lists available for the Kea project. kea-users (kea-users at lists.isc.org) is intended for Kea users, while kea-dev (kea-dev at lists.isc.org) is intended for Kea developers, prospective contributors, and other advanced users. Both lists are available at
 <https://lists.isc.org> . The community provides best-effort support on both of those lists.

ISC provides professional support for Kea services. See
 <https://www.isc.org/kea/> for details.

HISTORY

The b10-dhcp6 daemon was first coded in June 2011 by Tomek Mrugalski.

In mid-2014, Kea was decoupled from the BIND 10 framework and became a standalone DHCP server. The DHCPv6 server binary was renamed to kea-dhcp6. Kea 1.0.0 was released in December 2015.
