puppetlabs/dhcp — version 0.4.0 Sep 15th 2015

DHCP module for Puppet

Installs and manages a DHCP server.

Features

  • Multiple subnet support
  • Host reservations
  • Secure dynamic DNS updates when combined with Bind
  • Can create a dummy (ignored) subnet so that the server can be used only as a helper-address target

Usage

Define the server and the zones it will be responsible for.

class { 'dhcp':
  service_ensure => running,
  dnsdomain      => [
    'dc1.example.net',
    '1.0.10.in-addr.arpa',
  ],
  nameservers  => ['10.0.1.20'],
  ntpservers   => ['us.pool.ntp.org'],
  interfaces   => ['eth0'],
  dnsupdatekey => '/etc/bind/keys.d/rndc.key',
  dnskeyname   => 'rndc-key',
  require      => Bind::Key['rndc-key'],
  pxeserver    => '10.0.1.50',
  pxefilename  => 'pxelinux.0',
  omapi_port   => 7911,
}

dhcp::pool

Define the pool attributes

dhcp::pool{ 'ops.dc1.example.net':
  network => '10.0.1.0',
  mask    => '255.255.255.0',
  range   => ['10.0.1.100', '10.0.1.200'],
  gateway => '10.0.1.1',
}

dhcp::ignoredsubnet

Define a subnet that will be ignored - useful for making the DHCP server only respond to requests forwarded by switches etc.

dhcp::ignoredsubnet{ 'eth0':
  network => '10.0.0.0',
  mask    => '255.255.255.0',
}

dhcp::host

Create host reservations.

dhcp::host { 'server1':
  mac => '00:50:56:00:00:01',
  ip  => '10.0.1.51',
}
