Description
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The ``kea-shell`` provides a REST client for the Kea Control Agent (CA).
|
|
It takes commands as a command-line parameter that is sent to the CA
|
|
with proper JSON encapsulation. Optional arguments may be specified on
|
|
the standard input. The request is sent via HTTP and a response is
|
|
retrieved, displayed on the standard output. Basic HTTP authentication
|
|
and HTTPS, i.e. TLS transport, are supported.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Arguments
|
|
~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The arguments are as follows:
|
|
|
|
``-h``
|
|
Displays help regarding command-line parameters.
|
|
|
|
``-v``
|
|
Displays the Kea version.
|
|
|
|
``--host``
|
|
Specifies the host to connect to. The Control Agent must be running at the
|
|
specified host. If not specified, 127.0.0.1 is used.
|
|
|
|
``--port``
|
|
Specifies the TCP port to connect to. Control Agent must be listening
|
|
at the specified port. If not specified, 8000 is used.
|
|
|
|
``--path``
|
|
Specifies the path in the URL to connect to. If not specified, an empty
|
|
path is used. As Control Agent listens at the empty path, this
|
|
parameter is useful only with a reverse proxy.
|
|
|
|
``--ca``
|
|
Specifies the file or directory name of the Certification Authority.
|
|
If not specified, HTTPS is not used.
|
|

If specified, the file name of the user key must also be specified.
|
|
|
|
``--key``
|
|
Specifies the file name of the user key file. If specified, the file
|
|
name of the user certificate must also be specified.
|
|
Encrypted key files are not supported.
|
|
|
|
``--auth-user``

|
|
or specified as the empty string, authentication is not used.
|
|
|
|
``--auth-password``
|
|
Specifies the password for basic HTTP authentication. If not specified
|
|
but the user ID is specified, an empty password is used.
|

``--timeout``
|
|
Specifies the connection timeout, in seconds. The default is 10.
|
|
|
|
``--service``
|
|
Specifies the service that is the target of a command. If not
|
|
specified, the Control Agent itself is targeted. May be used more than once
|
|
to specify multiple targets.
|
|
|
|
``command``
|
|
Specifies the command to be sent to the CA. If not specified,
|
|
``list-commands`` is used.

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.

|
|

|
|
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.
