Files to setup the training labs for KEA DHCP and IPv6 training

This repository contains scripts to build the training lab environment on Linux using Linux container for the KEA DHCP Server and IPv6 training.

The training lab scripts have been tested on the latest Fedora Linux version (Fedora 36+). They might also work with the latest Red Hat EL 9.x and Rocky/Alma Linux.

The KEA Lab environment depends on podman https://podman.io. Podman can possibly substituded by Docker (https://docker.io), however it has not been tested.

Building

Make sure you have podman installed.

The script build in the installation directory will build all the container images reqired.

The directory bin should be in the executable search path:

export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/repo/bin

Every Lab has a couple of scripts:

run

The run script will remove previous instances of the containers and start a fresh version of the containers. Currently the script will issue a couple of error messages if the containers to be cleaned are not available, this will be fixed in future versions.

stop

The stop script will stop the lab containers

clean

The clean script will remove the lab containers for this lab

Configuration

The directory conf will contain the persistent configuration for KEA DHCP and BIND 9. The directory conf2 will contain the persitent configuration files for the 2nd ISC KEA DHCP Server for the HA lab in lab05.

The directory conf.template contain example configuration files for the different labs.
