Configure DHCP4 and DHCP6 parameters independently
At present, DHCP parameters like DNSEnabled, NTPEnabled and
HostNameEnabled are at the system level at the network backend. It is
common across both IPv4 and IPv6 network types. Thus when a redfish
command is sent to enable the DNSEnabled property for IPv4 on eth0
interface, it internally sets the DNSEnabled to true for both IPv4 and
IPv6 on eth0 and eth1.
Here the change in parameter value for a non-requested network type in
the non-requested interface might be an unexpected behaviour for the
user. Also, with the current implementation in bmcweb and networkd, the
user has no option to configure DHCP parameters differently for
different interfaces and network types though it is supported by the
redfish.
With this change, the Redfish query for updating DHCP parameters will
only modify the requested parameter for the specified network type and
interface. User must make separate requests to modify the DHCP
parameters as per the DMTF schema
Current behavior: Request: curl -k -H "X-Auth-Token: $bmc_token" -X
PATCH -d '{"DHCPv4":{"UseDNSServers":false}}'
https://${bmc}/redfish/v1/Managers/bmc/EthernetInterfaces/eth0
Result: UseDNSServers value is set to false for DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 for
all interfaces.
After this commit: Request: curl -k -H "X-Auth-Token: $bmc_token" -X
PATCH -d '{"DHCPv4":{"UseDNSServers":false}}'
https://${bmc}/redfish/v1/Managers/bmc/EthernetInterfaces/eth0
Result: UseDNSServers value is set to false only for DHCPv4 only in eth0
as mentioned in the redfish request.
The DHCP configuration was in the network manager level earlier, it has
been moved to interface level with
https://gerrit.openbmc.org/c/openbmc/phosphor-networkd/+/63124. This
bmcweb change is to separate out the values for IPv4 and IPv6 and to
move the dbus object to the interface level.
Tested by:
Patching the DHCP parameters with redfish request:
curl -k -H "X-Auth-Token: $bmc_token" -X PATCH -d
'{"<network_type>":{"<DHCP_param>":<value>}}'
https://${bmc}/redfish/v1/Managers/bmc/EthernetInterfaces/<interface_id>
Verify the value is updated in the network configuration.
Retrieve the DHCP parametrer value with the Get Request: curl -k -H
"X-Auth-Token: $bmc_token" -X GET
https://${bmc}/redfish/v1/Managers/bmc/EthernetInterfaces/<interface_id>
