DHCPv6 / omshell / OMAPI ?

[Thomas Markwalder]

Hello:

At this point in time, we do not have plans to extend OMAPI to support
DHCPv6.  ISC DHCP is our legacy product and our primary development
efforts are focused on it's successor, Kea.

Kea provides a REST API for issuing commands in JSON text.  This API is
growing with each release and will offer a much richer set of
abilities.  The current release of Kea, 1.2.0, added a control agent
which provides an HTTP interface for issuing commands to and getting
responses from Kea servers.  It also added commands to support host
reservation management.

https://www.isc.org/kea-1-2/

Our next release, 1.3 adds commands to support lease and subnet management.

The Kea project wiki is here:
