LDAP Schema for DHCP
Status of this Memo
This document is an Internet-Draft and is in full conformance with all
provisions of Section 10 of RFC2026 [ ].
Internet-Drafts are working documents of the Internet Engineering Task
Force (IETF), its areas, and its working groups. Note that other groups
may also distribute working documents as Internet-Drafts. Internet-
Drafts are draft documents valid for a maximum of six months and may be
updated, replaced, or obsolete by other documents at any time. It is
inappropriate to use Internet-Drafts as reference material or to cite
them other than as "work in progress." The list of current Internet-

1. Abstract
This document defines a schema for representing DHCP configuration in an
LDAP directory. It can be used to represent the DHCP Service
configuration(s) for an entire enterprise network, a subset of the
network, or even a single server. Representing DHCP configuration in an
LDAP directory enables centralized management of DHCP services offered
by one or more DHCP Servers within the enterprise.
2. Conventions used in this document
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in RFC-2119 [ ].
In places where different sets of terminology are commonly used to
represent similar DHCP concepts, this schema uses the terminology of the
Internet Software Consortium's DHCP server reference implementation.
For more information see www.isc.org.
3. Design Considerations
The DHCP LDAP schema is designed to be a simple multi-server schema. The
M. Meredith et al. Expires December 2001 [Page 1]
INTERNET-DRAFT LDAP Schema for DHCP 16 June 2001
intent of this schema is to provide a basic framework for representing
the most common elements used in the configuration of DHCP Server. This
should allow other network services to obtain and use basic DHCP
configuration information in a server-independent but knowledgeable way.
It is expected that some implementations may need to extend the schema
objects, in order to implement all of their features or needs. It is
recommended that you use the schema defined in this draft to represent
DHCP configuration information in an LDAP directory. Conforming to a
standard schema improves interoperability between DHCP implementations
from different vendors.
Some implementations may choose not to support all of the objects
defined here.
Two decisions are explicitly left up to each implementation:
First, implementations may choose not to store the lease information in
the directory, so those objects would not be used.
Second, implementations may choose not to implement the auditing
information.
It is up to the implementation to determine if the data in the directory
is considered "authoritative", or if it is simply a copy of data from an
authoritative source. Validity of the information if used as a copy is
to be ensured by the implementation.
Primarily two types of applications will use the information in this
schema: 1. DHCP servers (for loading their configuration) 2. Management
Interfaces (for defining/editing configurations).
The schema should be efficient for the needs of both types of
applications. The schema is designed to allow objects managed by DHCP
(such as computers, subnets, etc) to be present anywhere in a directory
hierarchy (to allow those objects to be placed in the directory for
managing administrative control and access to the objects).
The schema uses a few naming conventions - all object classes and
attributes are prefixed with "dhcp" to decrease the chance that object
classes and attributes will have the same name. The schema also uses
standard naming attributes ("cn", "ou", etc) for all objects.
4. Common DHCP Configuration Attributes
Although DHCP manages several different types of objects, the
configuration of those objects is often similar. Consequently, most of
these objects have a common set of attributes, which are defined below.

5. Configurations and Services
The schema definitions below are for readability the LDIF layout for
this schema will follow in section 8.
The DHC working group is currently considering several proposals for
fail-over and redundancy of DHCP servers. These may require sharing of
configuration information between servers. This schema provides a
generalized mechanism for supporting any of these proposals, by
separating the definition of a server from the definition of
configuration service provided by the server.
Separating the DHCP Server (dhcpServer) and the DHCP Configuration
(dhcpService) representations allows a configuration service to be
provided by one or more servers. Similarly, a server may provide one or
more configurations. The schema allows a server to be configured as
either a primary or secondary provider of a DHCP configuration.
Configurations are also defined so that one configuration can include
some of the objects that are defined in another configuration. This
allows for sharing and/or a hierarchy of related configuration items.
Name: dhcpService Description: Service object that represents the
actual DHCP Service configuration. This will be a container with the
following attributes. Must: cn, dhcpPrimaryDN May: dhcpSecondaryDN,
dhcpSharedNetworkDN, dhcpSubnetDN, dhcpGroupDN, dhcpHostDN,
dhcpClassesDN, dhcpOptionsDN, dhcpStatements
The following objects could exist inside the dhcpService container:
dhcpSharedNetwork, dhcpSubnet, dhcpGroup, dhcpHost, dhcpClass,
dhcpOptions, dhcpLog
Name: dhcpServer Description: Server object that the DHCP server will
login as. The configuration information is in the dhcpService container
that the dhcpServiceDN points to. Must: cn, dhcpServiceDN May:
dhcpVersion, dhcpImplementation, dhcpHashBucketAssignment,
dhcpDelayedServiceParameter, dhcpMaxClientLeadTime,

6. Tracking Address Assignments
The behavior of a DHCP server is influenced by two factors - it's
configuration and the current state of the addresses that have been
assigned to clients. This schema defines a set of objects for
representing the DHCP configuration associated with a server. The
following object classes provide the ability to record how addresses are
used including maintaining history (audit log) on individual leases.
Recording lease information in a directory could result in a significant
performance impact and is therefore optional. Implementations supporting
logging of leases need to consider the performance impact.
6.1. dhcpLeases Attribute Definitions
The schema definitions below are for readability the LDIF layout for
this schema will follow in section 8.
Name: dhcpAddressState Description: This stores information about the
current binding-status of an address. For dynamic addresses managed by
DHCP, the values should be restricted to the states defined in the DHCP
Failover Protocol draft [FAILOVR]: 'FREE', 'ACTIVE', 'EXPIRED',
'RELEASED', 'RESET', 'ABANDONED', 'BACKUP'. For more information on
these states see [FAILOVR]. For other addresses, it SHOULD be one of
the following: 'UNKNOWN', 'RESERVED' (an address that is managed by DHCP
that is reserved for a specific client), 'RESERVED-ACTIVE' (same as
reserved, but address is currently in use), 'ASSIGNED' (assigned
manually or by some other mechanism), 'UNASSIGNED', 'NOTASSIGNABLE'.
Syntax: IA5String Flags: SINGLE-VALUE
Name: dhcpExpirationTime Description: This is the time the current lease
for an address expires. Syntax: DateTime Flags: SINGLE-VALUE
M. Meredith et al. Expires December 2001 [Page 7]
INTERNET-DRAFT LDAP Schema for DHCP 16 June 2001
Name: dhcpStartTimeOfState Description: This is the time of the last
state change for a leased address. Syntax: DateTime Flags: SINGLE-VALUE
Name: dhcpLastTransactionTime Description: This is the last time a valid
DHCP packet was received from the client. Syntax: DateTime Flags:
SINGLE-VALUE
Name: dhcpBootpFlag Description: This indicates whether the address was
assigned via BOOTP Syntax: Boolean Flags: SINGLE-VALUE
Name: dhcpDomainName Description: This is the name of the domain sent to
the client by the server. It is essentially the same as the value for
DHCP option 15 sent to the client, and represents only the domain - not
the full FQDN. To obtain the full FQDN assigned to the client you must
prepend the "dhcpAssignedHostName" to this value with a ".". Syntax:
IA5String Flags: SINGLE-VALUE
Name: dhcpDnsStatus Description: This indicates the status of updating
DNS resource records on behalf of the client by the DHCP server for this
address. The value is a 16-bit bitmask that has the same values as
specified by the Failover-DDNS option (see [FAILOVR]). Syntax: Integer
Flags: SINGLE-VALUE
Name: dhcpRequestedHostName Description: This is the hostname that was
requested by the client. Syntax: IA5String Flags: SINGLE-VALUE
Name: dhcpAssignedHostName Description: This is the actual hostname that
was assigned to a client. It may not be the name that was requested by
the client. The fully qualified domain name can be determined by
appending the value of "dhcpDomainName" (with a dot separator) to this
name. Syntax: IA5String Flags: SINGLE-VALUE
Name: dhcpReservedForClient Description: This is the distinguished name
of the "dhcpHost" that an address is reserved for. This may not be the
same as the "dhcpAssignedToClient" attribute if the address is being
reassigned but the current lease has not yet expired. Syntax: DN Flags:
SINGLE-VALUE
Name: dhcpAssignedToClient Description: This is the distinguished name
of a "dhcpHost" that an address is currently assigned to. This
attribute is only present in the class when the address is leased.
Syntax: DN Flags: SINGLE-VALUE
Name: dhcpRelayAgentInfo Description: If the client request was received
via a relay agent, this contains information about the relay agent that
was available from the DHCP request. This is a hex-encoded option
value. Syntax: OctetString Flags: SINGLE-VALUE
Name: dhcpErrorLog Description: Generic error log attribute that allows
logging error conditions within a dhcpService or a dhcpSubnet, like no IP
addresses available for lease. Syntax: IA5String
M. Meredith et al. Expires December 2001 [Page 8]
INTERNET-DRAFT LDAP Schema for DHCP 16 June 2001
6.2. dhcpLeases Object Class
This class represents an IP address. It may or may not be leaseable,
and the object may exist even though a lease is not currently active for
the associated IP address.
It is recommended that all Lease objects for a single DHCP Service be
centrally located within a single container. This ensures that the lease
objects and the corresponding logs do not have to be relocated, when
address ranges allocated to individual DHCP subnets and/or pools change.
The schema definitions below are for readability the LDIF layout for
this schema will follow in section 8.
Name: dhcpLeases Description: This is the object that holds state
information about an IP address. The cn (which is the IP address), and
the current address-state are mandatory attributes. If the address is
assigned then, some of the optional attributes will have valid data.
Must: cn, dhcpAddressState May: dhcpExpirationTime,
dhcpStartTimeOfState, dhcpLastTransactionTime, dhcpBootpFlag,
dhcpDomainName, dhcpDnsStatus, dhcpRequestedHostName,
dhcpAssignedHostName, dhcpReservedForClient, dhcpAssignedToClient,
dhcpRelayAgentInfo, dhcpHWAddress
6.3 Audit Log Information
A dhcpLog object is created whenever a lease is assigned or released.
This object is intended to be created under the corresponding dhcpLeases
container, or dhcpPool, dhcpSubnet, dhcpSharedNetwork or dhcpService
containers.
The log information under the dhcpLeases container would be for
addresses matching that lease information. The log information in the
other containers could be used for errors, i.e. when a pool or subnet is
out our addresses or if a server is not able to assign any more
addresses for a particular dhcpService.
Name: dhcpLog Description: This is the object that holds past
information about an IP address. The cn is the time/date stamp when the
address was assigned or released, the address state at the time, if the
address was assigned or released. Must: cn May: dhcpAddressState,
dhcpExpirationTime, dhcpStartTimeOfState, dhcpLastTransactionTime,
dhcpBootpFlag, dhcpDomainName, dhcpDnsStatus, dhcpRequestedHostName,
dhcpAssignedHostName, dhcpReservedForClient, dhcpAssignedToClient,
dhcpRelayAgentInfo, dhcpHWAddress, dhcpErrorLog

7. Determining settings
The dhcpStatements attribute is the key to DHC enhancements that may
come along, and the different key words that a particular server
implementation may use. This attribute can be used to hold conditional
DHCP Statements and DHCP server parameters. Having a generic settings
attribute that is just a string, allows this schema to be extensible and
easy to configure.
All of the attributes that end with DN are references to the class that
precedes the DN e.g. the dhcpPrimaryDN and dhcpSecondaryDN attributes
hold the Distinguished Names of the dhcpServer objects that are
associated with the dhcpService object.

9. Security Considerations
Since the DHCP Configuration information is stored in a directory, the
security of the information is limited to the security offered by the
directory including the security of the objects within that directory.
