[Kea-users] isc group concept

[Veronique.Lefebure at cern.ch]

We use client-classes in order to reproduce the "group" concept, with a test expression on the client mac addresses: 

"test": "(pkt4.mac == xxxxxxx or pkt4.mac == xxxx  ... )

or on the vendor-class-identifier + mac address:

"test": "substring(option[vendor-class-identifier].text, 0, 3) == 'XYZ' and (pkt4.mac == xxxx or .... )

Cheers,
Veronique

I was using shell script generating global reservations from a table in a text file. Currently rewritten to generate separate include files for per subnet reservations. Since it is script generated I can put the options either as an include or as a list.
