[Kea-users] Vendor Options for Ubiquiti Unifi

[brendan kearney]

List members,

i am migrating to Kea from DHCPd, and have some configs for Unifi
gear.  as i understand it, these settings make adopting new equipment
easier, so i am trying to translate from old to new.

in my dhcpd.conf i have the following:

# UBNT stuff
option space ubnt;
option ubnt.unifi-address code 1 = ip-address;

class "ubnt" {
        match if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 4) = "ubnt";
        option vendor-class-identifier "ubnt";
        vendor-option-space ubnt;
}

subnet 192.168.248.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
  option ubnt.unifi-address 192.168.248.1;
  ...
}

in kea, i am not sure how to write code this up.  my best hacks at
this are not working, and i am hoping someone can help with insight.
what i have is below, but does not work.  i think there may be a few
issues, and i have not been able to find good examples to compare
against.

               { "pool": "192.168.248.150 - 192.168.248.174",
"client-class": "primary-unknown" },
                { "pool": "192.168.248.175 - 192.168.248.199",
"client-class": "secondary-unknown" }
        ],
        "option-data": [
                { "name": "routers", "data": "192.168.248.254" },
                { "name": "unifi", "data": "192.168.248.1" }
        ]
     },
     ...
]

can any insight be provided?  i would appreciate any input.

thank you,
