For security purposes, there is no way to specify wildcards. Each requester address
must be explicitly listed.
When a query by IP address does not match an existing address lease,
a search for a matching delegated prefix is conducted. This is carried
out by iterating over a list of prefix lengths, in descending order,
extracting a prefix of that length from the query address and searching
for a delegation matching the resulting prefix. This continues for each
length in the list until a match is found or the list is exhausted.
By default, the list of prefix lengths to use in the search is determined
dynamically after (re)configuration events. This resulting list
will contain unique values of ``delegated-len`` gleaned from the currently
configured set of PD pools.
There is an optional parameter, ``prefix-lengths``, shown above which
provides the ability to explicitly configure the list rather than having
it be determined dynamically. This provides tighter control over which
prefix lengths are searched. In the above example, the prefix length
search will be restricted to single pass, using a length of 72, regardless
of whether or not there are pools using other values for ``delegated-len``.
Specifying an empty list, as shown below:
