@page terminology Terminology
|

|
|
|
||
|
|
This page explains some common abbreviations and terms:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- CA - Control Agent. That's a separate module that talks with Kea DHCPv4, DHCPv6 (and soon also D2)
|
||
|
|
over control channel and exposes their internal commands using RESTful interface.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- D2 - This is a nickname of DHCP-Dynamic DNS server module. Since using the full name is awkward,
|
||
|
|
we often use shortened version of it: D2.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- DHCP - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. There are two similar, but operationally different
|
||
|
|
protocols: DHCPv4 and DHCPv6. When v4 or v6 is not specified, the DHCP expression applies to both.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- DHCPv4 - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv4, a protocol that defines how IPv4 hosts can
|
||
|
|
obtain IPv4 addresses and other configuration from the servers. Defined in RFC2131.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- DHCPv6 - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6, a protocol that defines how IPv6 hosts and
|
||
|
|
router can obtain IPv6 addresses, IPv6 prefixes and other configuration from the servers. Defined
|
||
|
|
in RFC3315.
