Description

charrua-core is an ISC-licensed DHCP library implementation in ocaml.

It provides basically two modules, a Dhcp responsible for parsing and constructing DHCP messages and a Dhcp_server module used for constructing DHCP servers.

charrua-unix is a Unix DHCP server based on charrua-core.

charrua-mirage is a Mirage DHCP server based on charrua-core.

Features


* Dhcp_server supports a stripped down ISC dhcpd.conf, so you can probably just
  use your old dhcpd.conf.
* Support for multiple interfaces/subnets.
* Logic/sequencing is agnostic of IO and platform, so it can run on Unix as a
  process, as a Mirage VM or anything else.
* Functorizes over Logging functions.
* Code is purely functional with the exception of Dhcp Leases.
* With `charrua-mirage` you can run a server directly on top of Xen, without a
  full operating system.
* It's in ocaml, so it's pretty cool.

The name `charrua` is a reference to the, now extinct, semi-nomadic people of
southern South America.

This project became one of the [Mirage Pioneer]
(https://github.com/mirage/mirage-www/wiki/Pioneer-Projects) projects.
