charrua-core
DHCP core library - a DHCP server and wire frame encoder and decoder
Description
charrua-core is an ISC-licensed DHCP library implementation in OCaml.
It provides basically two modules, a Dhcp_wire
responsible for parsing and
constructing DHCP messages and a Dhcp_server
module used for constructing DHCP
servers.
charrua-unix is a Unix DHCP server based on charrua-core.
mirage is a Mirage DHCP unikernel server based on charrua-core.
You can browse the API for charrua-core at http://mirage.github.io/charrua-core/api
Features
- Dhcp_server supports a stripped down ISC dhcpd.conf, so you can probably just use your old dhcpd.conf, it also supports manual configuration building in ocaml.
- Logic/sequencing is agnostic of IO and platform, so it can run on Unix as a process, as a Mirage unikernel or anything else.
- Dhcp_wire provides marshalling and unmarshalling utilities for DHCP, it is the base for Dhcp_server.
- All DHCP options are supported at the time of this writing.
- Code is purely applicative.
- It's in ocaml, so it's pretty cool.
The name charrua
is a reference to the, now extinct, semi-nomadic people of
southern South America.
This project became one of the Mirage Pioneer projects.
