Hi,

 

that’s why I’ve written the dirty workaround. Since you’ve only trouble with 
the native vlan, than a possible solution is to ’tag’ the native vlan with a 
crosslink on the swicht (looping back to itself). This way you can tag the 
native vlan transparently.

 

So you create a new vlan – vlan 20 let’s say – remove the ip from the pysical 
interface and assign it to interface vlan20. On the switch you cross connect a 
native vlan port with a vlan 20 access port „bridgeing”  it together (all 
packets in the native vlan will appear to KEA as vlan 20 packets).

 

With openvswitch you’ll to nearly the same, but virtually. If openvswitch 
honors the tagged/untagged scenario correctly, than it’ll work.

 

Cheers,

 

               Tom

Hi Ben,

 

in my case I think the prerequisite is a Little bit different. I already have 3 
vlans on the dhcp Server, and if I configure only those for dhcp then 
everything works as expected. The Problem occurs when I want to add the 
physical device (eth0, untagged) to dhcp, because then, as KEA dhcp Server 
binds in „raw“ mode, untagged and tagged traffic is delivered via this 
interface. Because the implementation in KEA dhcp Server does not correctly 
handle this „mixed“ (untagged/tagged) traffic, it is assigning incorrect ips. I 
am not sure if using openvswitch can solve that for me.

 

My hope is that the KEA Team will take care of that and fix it, because in my 
eyes this is a bug and big Limitation.

 

Thanks!

Hey,

 

I sadly don't have any information about the openvswitch configuration, as I 
started to work on our DHCP when we migrated to the relay based solution.

But from my understanding you will get multiple interfaces e.g vlan30, vlan100 
etc. where you only get the traffic from the specified vlans. That means if you 
have one connection from your switch to your dhcp server where all tagged vlan 
traffic is going through, you can get the untagged traffic separated into the 
openvswitch interfaces. 

These interfaces will then be handled like in your first emails kea 
configuration.

 

Cheers,

Hi Ben,

 

this sounds interesting. Can you give some more Information how you configured 
your System to work that way? I am running Debian Buster Linux Distribution and 
openvswitch seems to be available in the repos. In my case what I Need is 
Forwarding untagged traffic from eth0 to a new interface eth0.x which is tagged 
and can be used by KEA to handle DHCP requests.

 

Thanks!
