The sections below will illustrate how to use the `dhcpv6` and `dhcpv4`
packages.

-## DHCPv6 client
-
-To run a DHCPv6 transaction on the interface "eth0":
-
-```go
-package main
-
-import (
- "log"
-
- "github.com/insomniacslk/dhcp/dhcpv6"
-)
-
-
-func main() {
- // NewClient sets up a new DHCPv6 client with default values
- // for read and write timeouts, for destination address and listening
- // address
- client := dhcpv6.NewClient()
-
- // Exchange runs a Solicit-Advertise-Request-Reply transaction on the
- // specified network interface, and returns a list of DHCPv6 packets
- // (a "conversation") and an error if any. Notice that Exchange may
- // return a non-empty packet list even if there is an error. This is
- // intended, because the transaction may fail at any point, and we
- // still want to know what packets were exchanged until then.
- // A default Solicit packet will be used during the "conversation",
- // which can be manipulated by using modifiers.
- conversation, err := client.Exchange("eth0")
-
- // Summary() prints a verbose representation of the exchanged packets.
- for _, packet := range conversation {
- log.Print(packet.Summary())
- }
- // error handling is done *after* printing, so we still print the
- // exchanged packets if any, as explained above.
- if err != nil {
- log.Fatal(err)
- }
-}

-## DHCPv6 packet crafting and manipulation
-
-```go
-package main
-
-import (
- "log"
- "net"
-
- "github.com/insomniacslk/dhcp/dhcpv6"
- "github.com/insomniacslk/dhcp/iana"
-)
-
-func main() {
- // In this example we create and manipulate a DHCPv6 solicit packet
- // and encapsulate it in a relay packet. To to this, we use
- // `dhcpv6.DHCPv6Message` and `dhcpv6.DHCPv6Relay`, two structures
- // that implement the `dhcpv6.DHCPv6` interface.
- // Then print the wire-format representation of the packet.
-
- // Create the DHCPv6 Solicit first, using the interface "eth0"
- // to get the MAC address
- msg, err := dhcpv6.NewSolicitForInterface("eth0")
- if err != nil {
- log.Fatal(err)
- }
-
- // In this example I want to redact the MAC address of my
- // network interface, so instead of replacing it manually,
- // I will show how to use modifiers for the purpose.
- // A Modifier is simply a function that can be applied on
- // a DHCPv6 object to manipulate it. Here we use it to
- // replace the MAC address with a dummy one.
- // Modifiers can be passed to many functions, for example
- // to constructors, `Exchange()`, `Solicit()`, etc. Check
- // the source code to know where to use them.
- // Existing modifiers are implemented in dhcpv6/modifiers.go .
- mac, err := net.ParseMAC("00:fa:ce:b0:0c:00")
- if err != nil {
- log.Fatal(err)
- }
- duid := dhcpv6.Duid{
- Type: dhcpv6.DUID_LLT,
- HwType: iana.HwTypeEthernet,
- Time: dhcpv6.GetTime(),
- LinkLayerAddr: mac,
- }
- // As suggested above, an alternative is to call
- // dhcpv6.NewSolicitForInterface("eth0", dhcpv6.WithCLientID(duid))
- msg = dhcpv6.WithClientID(duid)(msg)
-
- // Now encapsulate the message in a DHCPv6 relay.
- // As per RFC3315, the link-address and peer-address have
- // to be set by the relay agent. We use dummy values here.
- linkAddr := net.ParseIP("2001:0db8::1")
- peerAddr := net.ParseIP("2001:0db8::2")
- relay, err := dhcpv6.EncapsulateRelay(msg, dhcpv6.MessageTypeRelayForward, linkAddr, peerAddr)
- if err != nil {
- log.Fatal(err)
- }
-
- // Print a verbose representation of the relay packet, that will also
- // show a short representation of the inner Solicit message.
- // To print a detailed summary of the inner packet, extract it
- // first from the relay using `relay.GetInnerMessage()`.
- log.Print(relay.Summary())
-
- // And finally, print the bytes that would be sent on the wire
- log.Print(relay.ToBytes())

-## DHCPv6 server
-
-A DHCPv6 server requires the user to implement a request handler. Basically the
-user has to provide the logic to answer to each packet. The library offers a few
-facilities to forge response packets, e.g. `NewAdvertiseFromSolicit`,
-`NewReplyFromDHCPv6Message` and so on. Look at the source code to see what's
-available.
-
-An example server that will print (but not reply to) the client's request is
-shown below:
-
-```go
-package main
-
-import (
- "log"
- "net"
-
- "github.com/insomniacslk/dhcp/dhcpv6"
-)
-
-func handler(conn net.PacketConn, peer net.Addr, m dhcpv6.DHCPv6) {
- // this function will just print the received DHCPv6 message, without replying
- log.Print(m.Summary())
-}
-func main() {
- laddr := net.UDPAddr{
- IP: net.ParseIP("::1"),
- Port: dhcpv6.DefaultServerPort,
- }
- server := dhcpv6.NewServer(laddr, handler)
-
- defer server.Close()
- if err := server.ActivateAndServe(); err != nil {
- log.Panic(err)
- }
-}
