For a complete list of authors and contributors, see AUTHORS file.Internet Systems Consortium, Inc. kea-shell 8 Kea kea-shell Text client for Control Agent process 2017-2018 Internet Systems Consortium, Inc. ("ISC") kea-shell -h -v --host --port --path --timeout --service command The kea-shell provides a REST client for the Kea Control Agent (CA). It takes command as a command-line parameter that is being sent to CA with proper JSON encapsulation. Optional arguments may be specified on the standard input. The request it sent of HTTP and a response is retrieved. That response is displayed out on the standard output. The arguments are as follows: -h Displays help regarding command line parameters. -v Display the version. --host Specifies the host to connect to. Control Agent must be running at specified host. If not specified, 127.0.0.1 is used. --port Specifies the TCP port to connect to. Control Agent must be listening at specified port. If not specified, 8000 is used. --path Specifies the path in the URL to connect to. If not specified, empty path is used. As Control Agent listens at the empty path this parameter is useful only with a reverse proxy. --timeout Specifies the connection timeout in seconds. If not specified, 10 (seconds) is used. --service Specifies the service that is the target of a command. If not specified, Control Agent will be targeted. May be used more than once to specify multiple targets. command Specifies the command to be sent to CA. If not specified, "list-commands" is used. Kea comes with an extensive Kea User's Guide documentation that covers all aspects of running the Kea software - compilation, installation, configuration, configuration examples and many more. Kea also features a Kea Messages Manual, which lists all possible messages Kea can print with a brief description for each of them. Both documents are typically available in various formats (txt, html, pdf) with your Kea distribution. The on-line version is available at http://kea.isc.org/docs/. Kea source code is documented in the Kea Developer's Guide. It's on-line version is available at http://kea.isc.org. Please follow Developer's Guide link. Kea project website is available at: http://kea.isc.org. There are two mailing lists available for Kea project. kea-users (kea-users at lists.isc.org) is intended for Kea users, while kea-dev (kea-dev at lists.isc.org) is intended for Kea developers, prospective contributors and other advanced users. Both lists are available at http://lists.isc.org. The community provides best effort type of support on both of those lists. ISC provides professional support for Kea services. See https://www.isc.org/kea/ for details. The kea-shell was first coded in March 2017 by Tomek Mrugalski. kea-ctrl-agent 8 , kea-dhcp4 8 , kea-dhcp6 8 , kea-dhcp-ddns 8 , kea-admin 8 , keactrl 8 , perfdhcp 8 , kea-lfc 8 , Kea Administrator's Guide.
