On behalf of ISC and Kea team I'm pleased to announce that
new version 1.4.0 is released and available to use!
Welcome to the 1.4.0 release of Kea. Kea is a DHCP implementation
developed by Internet Systems Consortium, Inc. that features fully
functional DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 servers, a dynamic DNS update daemon, a
Control Agent (CA) that provides a REST API to control the DHCP
servers, an example shell client to connect to the CA and a DHCP
performance measurement tool. Both DHCP servers fully support server
discovery, address assignment, renewal, rebinding, release, decline,
information request, DNS updates, client classification and host
reservations. The DHCPv6 server also supports prefix delegation. Lease
information can be stored in a MySQL, PostgreSQL or Cassandra database;
it can also be stored in a CSV file. Host reservations can be stored in
a configuration file; they can also be stored in a MySQL, PostgreSQL,
Cassandra databases and to some degree also retrieved from a RADIUS
server.
Version 1.4.0 adds the following features to Kea:
* High Availability - To provide a highly available service, despite
server failure, two Kea instances can now be configured to run as a
pair. Two modes are supported. In hot standby mode there is a primary
instance handling all traffic and sending updates to its secondary
partner. The secondary monitors the health of the primary and is able
to take over automatically in case the primary fails. In load balancing
mode both partners are active and are handling approximately half of
the traffic traffic. In case of a failure of either server, the partner
is able to take over responding to all traffic directed to both
servers. Support for additional backup servers is implemented. The
backup server's database is updated as soon as possible after changes
are made to the primary server's database, so that it can be used as an
almost drop-in replacement in case of catastrophic failures that take
out both primary and secondary servers. The solution supports both IPv4
and IPv6 and can work with any backend, including memfile. Note that
this is NOT an implementation of the IETF draft DHCPv4 failover (which
does not support DHCPv6).
The HA feature was planned to be a Premium feature, and so it was not
included in the Kea 1.4 open source beta package. During the beta
period we decided to instead offer it as part of the free open source
to enable more users who rely on DHCP failover to migrate to Kea.
* Database improvements - Many Kea users report using multiple Kea
instances sharing a single database backend, or cluster of databases.
One of the frequently requested features was the ability to report
accurate statistics in this case. This surprisingly tricky problem was
solved for MySQL and PostgreSQL by a new stat_cmds hook library and
schema updates. Users also requested the ability to reconnect after
the database connection is lost for whatever reason. '''NOTE''' You
will need to upgrade any existing MySQL and PostgreSQL Kea databases to
the new schema versions. This is readily done using kea-admin:
$ kea-admin lease-upgrade {mysql|pgsql} -u database-user -p
database-password -n database-name
* Cassandra - Kea has had experimental support for a Apache Cassandra
database backend for a while, but the feature hadn't been finished or
fully tested. This has changed: the code now supports host reservations
and has a great number of new smaller fixes and improvements. Its is
now both easier to install and much better documented. Thank you to
Deutsche Telekom AG for sponsoring this work.
* Classification - It is now possible to specify client classes on a
pool level, so you can control who is able to use specific pools, group
similar clients together or even reject clients that don't meet certain
class requirements. Class expressions have expanded capabilities. The
most popular seems to be a member operator, which determines whether
packet is a member of a given class. Two new built in classes - KNOWN
and UNKNOWN - have been added. Complex boolean logic is available. Ever
wanted to do member(foo) and not member(bar)? Now you can.
* Bug fixes and quality of life improvements - With 176 tickets closed
(134 before beta and 42 after beta), 1.4.0 is by far the biggest
release we ever did.
* Extended API - Several new commands have been implemented. This Kea
version supports 65 management commands that allow you to conduct
various operations during operation, such as setting new configuration,
list, retrieve, add or delete subnets, shared networks, host
reservations, leases and much more.
We have also added a new premium hook library, If you purchased the
Kea 1.3.0 premium package before you will be getting an email with
instructions on how to download a free update to the Kea 1.4.0
premium package.
* RADIUS - Kea can now be integrated with an existing RADIUS server.
Both access and accounting roles are supported. Kea is able to send
Access-Request messages and alter its behavior depending on the
responses. Specific IP addresses may be assigned (if Framed-IP-Address
or Framed-IPv6-Address is received), client can be assigned to specific
pool (if Framed-Pool or Framed-IPv6-Pool is received) or denied service
altogether (if Access-Reject is received). Kea can also send accounting
messages to RADIUS accounting servers. As with other features, this
supports both IPv4 and IPv6.
We have introduced the following backward incompatible changes since
Kea 1.4.0 beta release:
* Logger names - Several Kea loggers have been renamed to adhere to the
common naming convention, i.e. hyphens are used instead of underscores
and loggers used by the hook libraries use include "-hooks" postfix.
For example: ''kea-dhcp4.lease-cmds-hooks'' rather than
''kea-dhcp4-lease_cmds''). This change affects loggers used both in the
core Kea code and in the hooks libraries. See Kea ticket #5622 for
details.
* Host reservations API changes - Removed deprecated API functions
which had been used for retrieving host reservations by HW address
and/or DUID. This change does not affect Kea users. It merely affects
hooks library developers who use the removed functions for retrieving
host reservations. See Kea ticket #5563 for details.
* Hook installation - We have changed the installation method for hooks
packages. Hooks released with earlier versions of Kea will need to be
updated to the Kea 1.4 versions.
* Client Classification change planned for Kea 1.5 - In a future
version of Kea, probably in Kea 1.5, we would like to adjust the option
precedence order for Kea so that it matches the order for ISC DHCP (to
simplify configuration for users migrating to Kea). Currently, Kea uses
host, pool, subnet, shared network, class, global precedence, while ISC
DHCP uses host, class, pool, subnet, shared network, global. Because
this is a potentially disruptive change to existing Kea users, we want
to give advance notice that we are planning this. To express your
feedback about this pending change, please send your comments to
kea-users at lists.isc.org.

== Changes ==
The following summarizes changes and important upgrade notes since the
previous release (1.4.0-beta).
1427. [bug] marcin
Resolved multiple problems causing slow synchronization of
leases in the HA hooks library, including adjusting
timeouts in control channel and improving performance of
responses sent by the Command Manager to Control Agent.
Also, introduced 'sync-timeout' configuration parameter
into HA hooks library to control lease database
synchronization timeout.
(Trac #5649, git cbc29128863916a13364749bf681586aea2aa51e)
1426. [func] fdupont
Added KNOWN and UNKNOWN built-in client classes: after host
lookup if a matching host entry is found
the incoming packet is added to
the KNOWN class, if none is found to the UNKNOWN class. Then
expressions depending directly or indirectly on these classes
are evaluated. Note these classes may be used to select
a pool but they may not to select a subnet.
(Trac #5549, git 6a856ed9722b918a65dca15ff44314e28897784e)
1425. [bug] marcin

Availability configuration by optimizing the management of
CalloutHandle objects passed to the callouts.
(Trac #5647, git eea88d5c8f4d8efb6c5bfdfbf4e070a90069db5d)
1424. [doc] marcin
List of hooks libraries provided by ISC includes an
information which Kea servers the libraries can be attached
to. The detailed description of each supported hooks library
also contains this information.
(Trac #5613, git 9d6f8de3d988c42c413a7d628e31854e9c80d8c9)
1423. [bug] tmark
kea-dhcp4 and kea-dhcp6 now retain and emit global, scalar
parameters specified in their configuration.
(Trac #5378, git 4d05122f03d00b10a888c768fe1725cae9d6aea6)
1422. [build] fdupont
Commented out BOOST_ASIO_DISABLE_THREADS in configure to reflect
the current use of threads by boost ASIO in Kea.
(Trac #5615, git f3fc8b1a4257a42a97aaf88a36287bbe33d1f65b)
1421. [build] marcin
Moved libdhcp_ha (High Availability) hooks library from
premium to main Kea repository and changed its license to
MPLv2.0. Future ChangeLog entries for this library will be
tracked in the Kea ChangeLog file.
(Trac #5645, git 19b2553d4869bdd52b63b6f7969052d8a724f78d)
1420. [doc] marcin
Updated list of loggers in the Kea Administrator's Manual.
The updated list contains all loggers, including those
from supported hooks libraries.
(Trac #5622, git bd94afc0af7183452c94f3b5768c6138f79d3b60)
1419. [doc] marcin
Documented "sync-leases" configuration parameter of the HA
hooks library in the Kea Administrator's Manual.
(Trac #5621, git 4ebac3a411aa02d1cc3d74e7eaf3212ad208159a)
1418. [bug] marcin
Corrected bug in the allocation engine which caused occasional
lease allocation failures when a loaded hooks library set the
callout status to non default value, e.g. "skip" rather than
"continue". In such cases, the server reported that it failed
to allocate a lease "after 0 attempts".
(Trac #5638, git f2e9b686ae52e1b06f660e1b522588b1440e2620)
1417. [bug] marcin
Improved logging in the HTTP library both for the server and
the client.
(Trac #5205, git fd0bec610c89084d5a5d43ef032c9875c3e6ad46)
1416. [bug] fdupont
Added support of recent Botan 2.x crypto backend.
Note that Botan 1.[9-11] is still supported but not recommended.
(Trac #5382, git 22651b1935a2397edfbddb9b8873c353c090f18e)
1415. [bug] tmark
kea-dhcp4 and kea-dhcp6 now validate the schema version
of lease and host back ends after establishing a connection.
If a schema version does not match the version the server
expects, the server will emit an error log and close
the connection. This applies to MySQL, PostgreSQL, and
Cassandra.
(Trac #5629, git 15c34afdba45be609e35284a209ad18ed66605f8)
1414. [bug] tmark
kea-dhcp4 parsing now treats renew-timer and rebind-timer
as optional with no defaults. The logic for sending them
to the client was changed to: send rebind-timer only
when it is less than the lease lifetime; and send renew-timer
only when it less than either the rebind-timer if specified,
or lease lifetime in the absence of rebind-timer.
(Trac #5596, git 38426e16ec04a786e35a65d27cbcb7dbabfe79b5)
1413. [func] fdupont
Removed getAll, get4 and get6 methods using both hardware
address and DUID from host backend (aka host data source) APIs.
This is an *incompatible* change.
(Trac #5563, git db4c34b069f114f93d9f29cdeb02b536a0fbc982)
1412. [func]* marcin
The client classes used by the High Availability hook library
use upper case "HA_" prefix and they are now built-in classes.
This means that those classes do not need to be declared in the
server configuration.
(Trac #5632, git 2d590bfd7d1b0eca377eb99eef83a3083a1d7399)
1411. [bug] fdupont
Fixed warnings about lambda's not using captured variables.
(Trac #5591, git f88a505823d39faec7dc5f647f40e6454e5dfc74)
1410. [bug] marcin
Fixed multiple hanging Control Agent unittests.
(Trac #5576, git 310af68101cba74220652ec2b403520fc5666dc0)
1409. [doc] marcin
Documented in the User's Guide how Kea HA service behaves
when the clock skew between active servers becomes too
high.
(Trac #5603, git ffaff4d2a03600bb4f81d335b49a840e31d03c8c)
1408. [func] tomek
perfdhcp now supports -o option that adds DHCP options.
This may be used to simulate various clients.
(github #77, git b81dedb7f0a2516130e7bd799d9084c63f0e844c)
1407. [bug] tmark
Corrected an issue where the destruction of loggers
prior to the destruction of the TimerMgr singleton
caused unit tests to segfault.
(Trac #5626, git 9f4e3f9cd8acf8e7d1d3e714d8f904754377c00f)
1406. [func] fdupont
Added pkg-config alternative to configure --with-cql path so
now you can use either pkg-config or cql_config.
(Trac #5488, git 55498ca3455517132533a39002ebfc05d26c7e38)
1405. [bug] tmark
Corrected missing "override" warning in cql_lease_mgr.h
(Trac #5625, git df3068ba0e520df4d96dd38e2de679beb99f2e23)
The following summarizes changes and important upgrade notes since the
previous release (1.3.0).
1404. [doc] tomek
Hooks package installation intruction added to Kea
User's Guide.
(Trac #5427, git 7bc5e4297e8b2ccb87d5d5d79ae066fe32964841)
1403. [build] tomek
Support for hook packages has been updated. The --with-tierX
flags have been removed. Each hook library is now detected
independently.
(Trac #5619, git aa1f95d699dc664a5660db120ef71edee910a9b3)
1402. [bug] tomek
Fixed a crash that was caused by hook library registering
new hook points. This fixes unit-tests with forensic
logging, but the problem was generic and could cause
other libraries to segfault during unloading or reconfiguration.
(Trac #5577, git 2f9d1aa95c16e12fabc50d581b966f20b6d8a950)
1401. [bug] tmark
Corrected an issue which caused kea-dhcp4 and kea-dhcp6 servers
to unload their hooks libraries upon receipt of the first client
message following a dynamic reconfigure.
(Trac #5564, git 5111f569bd251c2a98a2e6d958e8f6b640a1802d)
1400. [func] tmark
A new hooks library, Stat Cmds, has been added to the open
source
distribution. This library provides commands for fetching lease
allocation statistics using lease backend as the source for
lease counts per state. This resolves an issue in deployments,
where multiple Kea servers share a common lease backend, which
made it difficult to obtain accurate lease statistics.
(Trac #5589, git 36f20f1c8b28f629fe2896b817ac0f3c6026fe0e)
1399. [func] tmark
Support for fetching lease allocation statistics by subnet-id
or subnet-id range has been added to the Cassandra back end.
This
allows it to be used in conjunction with the Stat Cmds hooks
library commands for fetching shared lease statistics.
(Trac #5588, git 3fcfefdea5ac838936c2109ecbbbc32eabc8fdba)
1398. [bug] fdupont
Fixed bug in configurations where "outbound-interface" parameter
was set to "use-routing", which in some cases would reset
outbound interface index to a negative value and cause the
server to fail to respond to the clients.
(Trac #5515, git 9d8d00f1f127ee606f09f7ff6006f0d142aac976)
1397. [bug] marcin
A bug in http client library was fixed. The IPv6 address
specified in brackets is now supported properly.
(Trac #5620, git fe38c4368853e47bc993d6c3844cdddba5effde5)
1396. [bug] tmark
The PostgreSQL schema was expanded to include two new tables:
lease4-stat and lease6-stat and triggers to update them as
leases are modified. This resolves an issue in deployments,
where multiple Kea servers share a common PostgreSQL lease
database, which made it difficult to obtain accurate lease
statistics. Since these statistics are now tracked by the
database, they do not have to be recalculated at
startup or following reconfiguration. This may result in less
processing overhead during these events. The new statistics
will be accessible via a new Hooks library, being developed
for Kea 1.4 under #5589.
(Trac #5587, git 36a0160de0df7789eea224954717be05c08638b7)
1395. [bug] tmark
The MySQL schema was expanded to include two new tables:
lease4-stat and lease6-stat and triggers to update them as
leases are modified. This resolves an issue in deployments,
where multiple Kea servers share a common MySQL lease database,
which made it difficult to obtain accurate lease statistics.
Since these statistics are now tracked by the database,
they do not have to be recalculated at startup
or following reconfiguration. This may result in less
processing overhead during these events. The new statistics
will be accessible via a new Hooks
library, being developed for Kea 1.4 under #5589.
(Trac #5586, git a070c327668c10de3b28f5e249f91d6d16a97ff5)
1394. [doc] marcin
Documented High Availability hook library in the Kea
Administrator Reference Manual.
(Trac #5478, git 3db34400d0331e3d4fc208529eeb18f6abfb6562)
1393. [build] marcin
Install new header files introduced since Kea 1.3 release.
Also, bumped up libraries version numbers for Kea 1.4 beta
release.
(Trac #5590, git 64351229a30832735c5a81ac17ca1521aa2483b2)
1392. [func] fdupont, marcin
Implemented new hook point "leases6_committed" in the DHCPv6
server. It supports new next step status NEXT_STEP_PARK
which causes the server to "park" the client's DHCP packet.
(Trac #5458, git 04d6fb0a0ac5b9dff2a02764cc9265f9a2a05ae8)
1391. [func] tmark
For both kea-dhcp4 and kea-dhcp6, the "ip-address" parameter
in the "relay" element for both subnets and shared networks,
has been replaced with a list form, "ip-addresses".
Configuration
parsing will continue to honor the singular form, but it should
be considered deprecated. In addition, an omission in 1.3 that
caused shared network parsing to ignore the "relay' element has
been corrected.
(Trac #5535, git f4601abdb657122a8ba5d7784eded773ec01d171)
1390. [doc] tomek
User's Guide documentation for RADIUS and Host Cache written.
(Trac #5538, git c73337a8ec691874b8ac0b2efcd8708f1a79acbb)
1389. [func] fdupont
dhcp6_srv_configured hook point added.
(Trac #5530, git 3bb521f6ec8b4e2a1e57ec84b17ee12b0ccf0f83)
1388. [build] tmark
Modified configure script to support --with-dhcp-mysql and
--with-dhcp-pgsql but emit a deprecation warning message
encouraging their replacement with --with-mysql and
--with-pgsql.
(Trac #5567, git 53761069761ddde44636baa30185322debfe4186)
1387. [func] tmark
perfdhcp no longer requires -r (rate) be specified in order to
use -D<max-drop>, -n<num-request>, -p<test-period>
and -t<report> options.
(Trac #5115, git c3ba89c56882cac1080899ad201f0c02056eef38)
1386. [func] fdupont
Extended comment / user-context support to DHCP-DDNS and
Control Agent configuration syntax.
(Trac #5495, git fe79959e3bc3c46ccb89661cb27696671a8508b8)
1385. [func] tomek
lease4-wipe and lease6-wipe are now able to wipe all leases
from all configured subnets if subnet-id specified is 0
or the subnet-id parameter is omitted.
(Trac #5543, git ecaf777dff4b8d1100c2a97c4fb1cf8f8e63566d)
1384. [func] fdupont
Significant improvements to client classification introduced.
The order of classes evaluation has changed from alphabetical
to the order of appearance. New 'member' expression allows
combination of classes. The new 'only-if-required' and
'require-client-class' parameters controlling the scope of
a class have been introduced.
(Trac #5474, git 3f2d93f0731fc1858b20e831a7d1f090ea8841fe)
1383. [func] tmark
kea-dhcp4 and kea-dhcp6 can now be configured to attempt to
reconnect to MySQL backends if connectivity is lost.
(Trac #5556, git b31da6f9a3545a2cac228eb17c59d72b6b4823f2)
1382. [func] fdupont
Added support for generalized UDP Source Port for DHCP Relay
(RFC 8357) for DHCPv4, DHCPv6 and DHCPv4-over-DHCPv6. Note
this required changes to the inter-server protocol used by
our 4o6 implementation, and is therefore not backward
compatible.
(Trac #5404, git 2a6049947ad4caaaa697dba8cb7669a09264f0bc)
1381. [bug] marcin
Corrected a bug in the libkea-asiolink library which caused
the DHCP servers to crash while processing commands over
the unix domain socket on some systems.
(Trac #5580, git cb5276a24436a9e9ce4d1ab4630e7193a4c2d803)
1380. [func] fdupont
Implemented lease6-get-all command in lease_cmds hooks library.
(Trac #5469, git a0bb7188df47a0f8020ff57739c5a6ab5f7e9828)
1379. [func, bug] marcin
The network_state argument is provided to the callouts in
the dhcp4_srv_configured hook point. Also, fixed a couple
of minor bugs in the HTTP client classes.
(Trac #5470, git 93e2b2198c3163afb81d51fdf5ec547602a12415)
1378. [doc] tomek
New parameter subnets-action for network4-del and network6-del
commands is now documented.
(Trac #5441, git 8b2ffabb3d1ba709f319df2b34d0804ee824446b)
1377. [doc] tomek
New parameters for Cassandra are now documented.
(Trac #5484, git 56e7026ea2bfab99dbfa1a047dc920ec2f743540)
1376. [func] razvan
Cassandra backend improvements: get all IPv4 leases, delete
hosts, ability to store fixed DHCPv4 fields (next-server,
server-hostname, boot-file-name) and user contexts in host
reservations. Also, the ability to store MAC address details
in DHCPv6 leases on PostgreSQL has been improved.
(Github #70, git 8cd0c1ae416be88baf69c2243e83a429d6d5c965)

1375. [func] tmark
When encountering errors unpacking vendor specific options,
both kea-dhcp4 and kea-dhcp6 will now log the error, skip
unpacking any remaining options, and then attempt to process
the packet as is. Prior to this the servers would log the issue
and then drop the packet.
(Trac #5551, git 59ef33ee17672c55cee4ec86ff59737b361a3c21)
1374. [func] tmark
kea-dhp4 and kea-dhcp6 can now be configured to attempt to
reconnect to Postgresql backends if connectivity is lost.
(Trac #5477, git 8e62a058382b2245d418cfbf829776934c638e5e)
1373. [func] marcin
Implemented leases parsing from JSON in libkea-dhcpsrv.
(Trac #5466, git 84c2a2084b0fb7c086fc6b9502f7ff58b708174e)
1372. [func] marcin
Implemented new hook points "dhcp4_srv_configured" and
"leases4_committed" in the DHCPv4 server. The latter supports
new next step status NEXT_STEP_PARK which causes the server
to "park" the client's DHCP packet.
(Trac #5457, git af43f07b0e227ccabcdf07a046a64cebb11bdccf)
1371. [bug] fdupont
Fixed a bug in JSONfeed tool which did not correctly handle
strings and interpret their content.
(Trac #5513, git 231e923a85db7fb8305c7baa4d15f766fdf60942)
1370. [bug] tmark
Fixed a bug which prevented inserting multiple host reservations
where IPv4 address was unspecified or when selected subnet
identifier
was not specified (5416). Corrected inconsistent data types for
subnet id columns in both Postgres and MySQL schemas. Now both
schemas support up to MAX UINT32 in all subnet id columns.
Exiting databases may be updated without data migration.
(Trac #5416, #5522, git
d1dd0f2e27ffa49515c17cf68d54f162359b6384)
1369. [bug] marcin
Multiple critical performance optimizations in the allocation
engine for shared networks.
(Trac #5437, git 9d8bcd39802795d48c737a05ef3de3634a28ca4e)
1368. [func] tmark
kea-dhcp4 now explicitly logs packets dropped due to a lack
message type as a log type DHCP4_PACKET_DROP_0009. Prior
to this such packets were logged has having an unsupported
message type of 0.
(Trac #5553, git ff97e5ffb5f3478be71aae8130b6eff3208bd69a)
1367. [func] fdupont

(Trac #5524, git 832aa23b89eab71875bcbdb1e955eb92fdc0e01a)
1366. [func] fdupont
Implemented FNV hashing function. Cassandra backend no longer
explicitly depends on OpenSSL.
(Trac #5502, git 71de75c3bb099f21fdef0d41806da281d6271287)
1365. [func] fdupont
Both DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 servers can now listen on loopback
interfaces. This capability requires setting socket type to UDP
in DHCPv4. Note the feature has not been thoroughly tested.
(Trac #5390, git f38cbd73581a7a0f8634a63cb17f9b60407e3acc)
1364. [func] fdupont
Extended forensic (aka legal) logging with database capability.
(Trac #5420, git 94bd3cc313e9f2a982ef8f8adf0cf44024c76499)
1363. [func] tmark
Added support for automatically recalculating lease statistics
to the CQL backend.
(Trac #5487, git c807388d581ee1c3e479324f3c399f27feba1c96)
1362. [func] razvan, andrei
A new parameter exit-wait-time has been added to perfdhcp. It is
now possible to tell perfdhcp to wait certain amount of time
after exit conditions are met before actually terminating.
(Github #55, git 0cd1178ae092fa0c2f122d0e16fb673b4074a6e6)
1361. [func] razvan, andrei, tomek
Support for Google Benchmark has been added. To compile
benchmarking support, please use --with-benchmark option.
(Github #36, git d6819971410b460d7742c762844e2e75ba580944)

Fixed bug in kea-admin causing error on lease-dump.
(Github #61, git 2c9454ec56edc8f3cff8a23329f53ced0d172280)
1358. [func] andreipavelQ,tomek
The logging configuration is now applied early, which helps
seeing errors in case the new configuration is faulty.
(Github #41, git d77fbec5a003a69cab207aa741133015f2657878)
1357. [build] andreipavelQ
--with-dhcp-mysql renamed to --with-mysql and
--with-dhcp-pgsql renamed to --with-pgsql. These names were
leftovers from old BIND10 times when Kea was part of bigger
solution that also provided DNS services. Kea is now a
stand-alone software, thus the -dhcp- doesn't make sense in
those options any more.
(Github #40, git 318c9e3d3db9bb938ced27932d8401172529a2ff)
1356. [doc] andreipavelQ

(Github #39, git 9b6705bd6c534128ec18820ff0cbdd72b7fce9e9)
1355. [func] tomek
Lightweight 4over6 options reinstantiated. Definitions for
DHCPv6 options 89 through 96 were added back.
DHCPv4 v4 Parameters Option 159 has its definition tweaked
slightly.
(Trac #5514, git 6a4aac2b3bfffe41460db6d1cd3c55b1430aa50c)

1352. [func] fdupont
It is now possible to specify client classification restrictions
on per pool basis. This capability will be useful for grouping
certain types of devices into specific address and/or prefix
pools.
(Trac #5425, git 5f3a89d6e32e90cd9cbb2347c7b2208c3e1561e0)
1351. [build] andreipavelQ
Compilation parameters unified (every file now includes
config.h, several makefile tweaks).
(Github #38, git 7206aa79c57be7466c4ab3dd558663c6c4f858b7)
1350. [func] fdupont
Several hook points now support next step status DROP. This
allows more flexibility with dropping packets from within hooks.
(Trac #5443, git ff22a906915a34df327174f550f69a396a05bb2c)
1349. [func] marcin
Implemented HTTP client classes in libkea-http.

1348. [build] fdupont
Modified configure.ac to include premium module m4 macros, if
the module is present. Prior to this it relied on premium
having it's own configure.ac script.
(Trac #5400, git 38c4f2fb8fc8c8874a0e4671cc295a049acf675f)
1347. [build] fdupont
Added support of boost 1.66.0 ASIO.
(Github #60/Trac #5496, git

1344. [func] andrei, razvan
Support for host reservations stored in Cassandra added. The
core functionality was added. There are some limitations (delete,
client classes, fixed DHCPv4 fields, statistics recount, etc.)
These will be addressed in upcoming tickets.
(github #37, git e37606fd2d0c02234a55f7445c52a12b2e7a82ec)
1343. [func] fdupont
User-context and comments are now supported in many new scopes:
global, shared-network, subnet, pool, host reservation, option,
option definition, client-class, control-socket, dhcp-ddns,
interfaces, loggers, and for DHCPv6 pd-pool and server-id.
(Trac #5351, git 3405a8fa5d391d96cd15874fd3de3ac63ceb33b6)
1342. [bug] fdupont
Fixed subnets and host reservations returned by config-get and
config-write.
(Trac #5452, git c24d057bed2692eaf3cdb6af889122eb582ffede)
1341. [func] razvan, andrei
Significant update of Cassandra support. A lot of code for
Cassandra Lease Manager has been updated and partially
rewritten.

Added placeholder section for the libdhcp_ha hooks library.
(Trac #5447, git d939b5b8bc4befb24daf863f2408d97493e4bfbf)
1336. [bug] marcin
DHCPv6 server always sends prefixes with the lifetime of 0 for
the prefix leases that should no longer be used, even if those
prefixes are not included in the Renew/Rebind.
(Trac #5403, git 91bb0855ff7ef86ff72b5a946ae716798d7bebc1)
1335. [bug] marcin
