This package contains a flexible DHCP server written in Python 3.4+. This is not a simple plug-and-play DHCP server. Its purpose is to provide a framework for DHCP services. It was written for ISPs to use in provisioning their customers according to their own business rules. It can be integrated into existing ISP management and provisioning tools.
Currently only the IPv6 version is implemented.
Versions up to and including 0.8.x used .ini files for configuration. Starting in version 0.9.0 this will change to Apache-style configuration based on ZConfig. This provides the huge advantage that sections can be nested and that better type checking and error messages are possible. It does however cause old configuration files to stop working.
Warning
While our intention was to provide a conversion tool, this turned out to be too complex to implement in a reasonable way. This means that you'll have to write a new configuration file when upgrading.
Please pay attention before upgrading to 0.9!
