I'm still struggling with this one unfortunately. Can anyone explain this paragraph in the client classification documentation for me?
* relay6[nest] allows access to the encapsulations used by any DHCPv6 relays that forwarded the packet. The nest level specifies the relay from which to extract the information, with a value of 0 indicating the relay closest to the DHCPv6 server. Negative values allow relays to be specified counting from the DHCPv6 client, with -1 indicating the relay closest to the client. If the requested encapsulation does not exist, an empty string "" is returned. This expression is allowed in DHCPv6 only. I feel this is what could be happening, because my debug shows: DEBUG FLEX_ID_EXPRESSION_EVALUATED Expression evaluated for packet to "" (size: 0) However, I don't understand the phrase "allows access to the encapsulations used by any DHCPv6 relays that forwarded the packet". I have tried nest values of 0 and -1 but that has not made any difference. Any help appreciated!

From: Kea-users <kea-users-boun...@lists.isc.org> On Behalf Of Andrew Mulheirn via Kea-users Sent: Tuesday, March 5, 2024 9:18 AM To: kea-users@lists.isc.org Cc: Andrew Mulheirn <andrew.mulhe...@vorboss.com> Subject: [Kea-users] Option-18 flex-id not matching incoming values I hope someone can help me with this issue. I am using Kea 2.4 I am trying to get option-18 to match a DHCPv6 static reservation, but Kea is evaluating the option to "" and no address is being allocated. We have purchased the premium hooks package. I have got the same result on two different servers in the lab but can't work out what I am doing wrong. Here is the configuration in use: { "Dhcp6": { "server-tag": "kea-01", "config-control": { "config-databases": [{ "type": "postgresql", "name": "retaildhcp", "user": "vorboss", "password": "vorboss", "host": "127.0.0.1", "port": 5432 }], "config-fetch-wait-time": 20 }, "hooks-libraries": [ { "library": "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/kea/hooks/libdhcp_flex_id.so", "parameters": { "identifier-expression": "substring(relay6[0].option[18].hex,0,all)" } }, { "library": "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/kea/hooks/libdhcp_pgsql_cb.so" } ], "host-reservation-identifiers": ["flex-id", "duid"], "interfaces-config": { "interfaces": [ "eth1/2a00:e340:1100::32"] }, "control-socket": { "socket-type": "unix", "socket-name": "/tmp/kea6-ctrl-socket" }, "lease-database": { # "type": "memfile", "lfc-interval": 3600, "type" : "postgresql", "name": "retaildhcp" , "host": "127.0.0.1" , "connect-timeout" : 5, "user": "vorboss", "password": "testingonly", }, "hosts-database": { "type": "postgresql", "name": "retaildhcp", "user": "vorboss", "password": "testingonly", "host": "localhost", "port": 5432 }, "expired-leases-processing": { "reclaim-timer-wait-time": 10, "flush-reclaimed-timer-wait-time": 25, "hold-reclaimed-time": 3600, "max-reclaim-leases": 100, "max-reclaim-time": 250, "unwarned-reclaim-cycles": 5 }, "renew-timer": 1000, "rebind-timer": 2000, "preferred-lifetime": 3000, "valid-lifetime": 4000, "reservations-global": false, "reservations-in-subnet": true, "subnet6": [ { "subnet": "2a00:e300:1102::/64", "option-data": [ { "name": "dns-servers", "data": "2001:db8:2::dead:beef, 2001:db8:2::cafe:babe" } ], "reservations": [ { "flex-id": "'vlan-100'", "ip-addresses": [ "2a00:e300:1102::2" ], "option-data": [ { "name": "dns-servers", "data": "3000:1::234" } ] }, { "flex-id": "'xe-0/0/1:rsw001'", "ip-addresses": [ "2a00:e300:1102::3" ] }, { "flex-id": "'xe-0/0/2:rsw001'", "ip-addresses": [ "2a00:e300:1102::4" ] } ] } ], "loggers": [ { "name": "kea-dhcp6", "output_options": [ { "output": "/var/log/dhcp6", "pattern": "%-5p %m\n", } ], "severity": "DEBUG", "debuglevel": 99 } ] } } I have tried setting flex-id to a double/single quoted string and also to a double-quoted hex value but no luck. If you look at the debug below, you can see the hex value coming in as a type 18. If you take that value and put it into a hex to ascii converter, you get the port number and switch name back successfully. But kea thinks option 18 has a value of 0x.
