Detailed Description

Base class for classes representing DHCP messages.

This is a base class that holds common information (e.g. source and destination ports) and operations (e.g. add, get, delete options) for derived classes representing both DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 messages. The Pkt4 and Pkt6 classes derive from it.

Note
This is abstract class. Please instantiate derived classes such as Pkt4 or Pkt6.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Pkt() [1/2]

isc::dhcp::Pkt::Pkt ( uint32_t transid,
const isc::asiolink::IOAddress & local_addr,
const isc::asiolink::IOAddress & remote_addr,
uint16_t local_port,
uint16_t remote_port )
protected

Constructor.

This constructor is typically used for transmitted messages as it creates an empty (no options) packet. The constructor is protected, so only derived classes can call it. Pkt class cannot be instantiated anyway, because it is an abstract class.

Parameters
transidtransaction-id
local_addrlocal IPv4 or IPv6 address
remote_addrremote IPv4 or IPv6 address
local_portlocal UDP (one day also TCP) port
remote_portremote UDP (one day also TCP) port

isc::dhcp::Pkt::Pkt ( const uint8_t * buf,
uint32_t len,
const isc::asiolink::IOAddress & local_addr,
const isc::asiolink::IOAddress & remote_addr,
uint16_t local_port,
uint16_t remote_port )
protected

Constructor.

This constructor is typically used for received messages as it takes a buffer that's going to be parsed as one of arguments. The constructor is protected, so only derived classes can call it. Pkt class cannot be instantiated anyway, because it is an abstract class.

Parameters
bufpointer to a buffer that contains on-wire data
lenlength of the pointer specified in buf
local_addrlocal IPv4 or IPv6 address
remote_addrremote IPv4 or IPv6 address
local_portlocal UDP (one day also TCP) port

◆ getMAC()

HWAddrPtr isc::dhcp::Pkt::getMAC ( uint32_t hw_addr_src)

Returns MAC address.

The difference between this method and getRemoteHWAddr() is that getRemoteHWAddr() returns only what was obtained from raw sockets. This method is more generic and can attempt to obtain MAC from varied sources: raw sockets, client-id, link-local IPv6 address, and various relay options.

Note
Technically the proper term for this information is a link layer address, but it is frequently referred to MAC or hardware address. Since we're calling the feature "MAC addresses in DHCPv6", we decided to keep the name of getMAC().

hw_addr_src takes a combination of bit values specified in HWADDR_SOURCE_* constants.

Parameters
hw_addr_srca bitmask that specifies hardware address source
Todo
: Implement an array of method pointers instead of set of ifs

protectedpure virtual

Attempts to obtain MAC address from DUID-LL or DUID-LLT.

This method is called from getMAC(HWADDR_SOURCE_DUID) and should not be called directly. It will attempt to extract MAC address information from DUID if its type is LLT or LL. If this method fails, it will return NULL.

Note
This is a pure virtual method and must be implemented in the derived classes. The Pkt6 class have respective implementation. This method is not applicable to DHCPv4.

◆ getMACFromIPv6()

HWAddrPtr isc::dhcp::Pkt::getMACFromIPv6 ( const isc::asiolink::IOAddress & addr)
protected

Attempts to convert IPv6 address into MAC.

Utility method that attempts to convert link-local IPv6 address to the MAC address. That works only for link-local IPv6 addresses that are based on EUI-64.

Note
This method uses hardware type of the interface the packet was received on. If you have multiple access technologies in your network (e.g. client connected to WiFi that relayed the traffic to the server over Ethernet), hardware type may be invalid.
Parameters
addrIPv6 address to be converted
Returns
hardware address (or NULL)

Attempts to obtain MAC address from remote-id relay option.

This method is called from getMAC(HWADDR_SOURCE_REMOTE_ID) and should not be called directly. It will attempt to extract MAC address information from remote-id option inserted by a relay agent closest to the client. If this method fails, it will return NULL.

Note
This is a pure virtual method and must be implemented in the derived classes. The Pkt6 class have respective implementation. This method is not applicable to DHCPv4.

◆ getMACFromSrcLinkLocalAddr()

virtual HWAddrPtr isc::dhcp::Pkt::getMACFromSrcLinkLocalAddr ( )
protectedpure virtual

Attempts to obtain MAC address from source link-local IPv6 address.

This method is called from getMAC(HWADDR_SOURCE_IPV6_LINK_LOCAL) and should not be called directly. It is not 100% reliable. The source IPv6 address does not necessarily have to be link-local (may be global or ULA) and even if it's link-local, it doesn't necessarily be based on EUI-64. For example, Windows supports RFC4941, which randomized IID part of the link-local address. If this method fails, it will return NULL.

For direct message, it attempts to use remote_addr_ field. For relayed message, it uses peer-addr of the first relay.

Note
This is a pure virtual method and must be implemented in the derived classes. The Pkt6 class have respective implementation. This method is not applicable to DHCPv4.
Returns
hardware address (or NULL)

Implemented in isc::dhcp::Pkt4, and isc::dhcp::Pkt6.

Referenced by getMAC().

◆ getName()

virtual const char * isc::dhcp::Pkt::getName ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns name of the DHCP message.

For all unsupported messages the derived classes must return "UNKNOWN".

Returns
Pointer to "const" string containing DHCP message name. The implementations in the derived classes should statically allocate returned strings and the caller must not release the returned pointer.

Implemented in isc::dhcp::Pkt4, and isc::dhcp::Pkt6.

◆ getNonCopiedOption()

OptionPtr isc::dhcp::Pkt::getNonCopiedOption ( const uint16_t type) const
protected

Returns the first option of specified type without copying.

This method is internally used by the Pkt class and derived classes to retrieve a pointer to the specified option. This method doesn't copy the option before returning it to the caller.

Parameters
typeOption type.
Returns
Pointer to the option of specified type or NULL pointer if such option is not present.

◆ setCopyRetrievedOptions()

virtual void isc::dhcp::Pkt::setCopyRetrievedOptions ( const bool copy)
inlinevirtual

Controls whether the option retrieved by the Pkt::getOption should be copied before being returned.

Setting this value to true enables the mechanism of copying options retrieved from the packet to prevent accidental modifications of options that shouldn't be modified. The typical use case for this mechanism is to prevent hook library from modifying instance of an option within the packet that would also affect the value for this option within the Kea configuration structures.

Kea doesn't copy option instances which it stores in the packet. It merely copy pointers into the packets. Thus, any modification to an option would change the value of this option in the Kea configuration. To prevent this, option copying should be enabled prior to passing the pointer to a packet to a hook library.

Not only does this method cause the server to copy an option, but the copied option also replaces the original option within the packet. The option can be then freely modified and the modifications will only affect the instance of this option within the packet but not within the server configuration.

Parameters
copyIndicates if the options should be copied when retrieved (if true), or not copied (if false).

◆ setRemoteHWAddr() [1/2]

void isc::dhcp::Pkt::setRemoteHWAddr ( const HWAddrPtr & hw_addr)

Sets remote hardware address.

Sets hardware address (MAC) from an existing HWAddr structure. The remote address is a destination address for outgoing packet and source address for incoming packet. When this is an outgoing packet, this address will be used to construct the link layer header.

Parameters
hw_addrstructure representing HW address.

◆ setRemoteHWAddr() [2/2]

void isc::dhcp::Pkt::setRemoteHWAddr ( const uint8_t htype,
const uint8_t hlen,

Sets remote hardware address.

Sets the destination hardware (MAC) address for the outgoing packet or source HW address for the incoming packet. When this is an outgoing packet this address will be used to construct the link layer header.

Note
mac_addr must be a buffer of at least hlen bytes.

In a typical case, hlen field would be redundant, as it could be extracted from mac_addr.size(). However, the difference is when running on exotic hardware, like Infiniband, that had MAC addresses 20 bytes long. In that case, hlen is set to zero in DHCPv4.
