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>

This component attempts to be a "do everything" embedded webserver for OpenBMC.
The webserver implements a few distinct interfaces:
bmcweb at a protocol level supports http and https. TLS is supported through OpenSSL.
Bmcweb supports multiple authentication protocols:
Each of these types of authentication is able to be enabled or disabled both via runtime policy changes (through the relevant Redfish APIs) or via configure time options. All authentication mechanisms supporting username/password are routed to libpam, to allow for customization in authentication implementations.
All authorization in bmcweb is determined at routing time, and per route, and conform to the Redfish PrivilegeRegistry.
*Note: Non-Redfish functions are mapped to the closest equivalent Redfish privilege level.
bmcweb is configured per the meson build files. Available options are documented in meson_options.txt
meson setup builddir ninja -C builddir
If any of the dependencies are not found on the host system during configuration, meson will automatically download them via its wrap dependencies mentioned in bmcweb/subprojects.
bmcweb relies on some on-system data for storage of persistent data that is internal to the process. Details on the exact data stored and when it is read/written can seen from the persistent_data namespace.
When SSL support is enabled and a usable certificate is not found, bmcweb will generate a self-signed a certificate before launching the server. Please see the bmcweb source code for details on the parameters this certificate is built with.
bmcweb is capable of aggregating resources from satellite BMCs. Refer to AGGREGATION.md for more information on how to enable and use this feature.
