Reset DHCP server statistics counters


Reset DHCP statistics counters of a DHCP server represented by the
connectivity_path and the enforecement_point_path where the
dhcp-server-config was applied to. The connectivity_path can be the Tier0
path, Tier1 path or a segment path. If the given Tier0/1 or Segment has
DHCP server applied, the resetting will succeed and the DHCP statistics
counters will be reset to 0. But if it has no DHCP server applied, the
reseting will fail with proper error message.

Read DHCP server status

Read DHCP server configuration


Read DHCP server configuration
GET /global-manager/api/v1/global-infra/dhcp-server-configs/{dhcp-server-config-id}

Create or update DHCP server configuration


If DHCP server config with the dhcp-server-config-id is not already
present, create a new DHCP server config instance. If it already exists,
update the DHCP server config instance with specified attributes.

Realized entities of this API can be found using the path of Tier-0, Tier1,
or Segment where this config is applied on.

Modification of edge_cluster_path in DhcpServerConfig will lose all
existing DHCP leases.

If both the preferred_edge_paths in the DhcpServerConfig are changed
in a same PATCH API, e.g. change from [a,b] to [x,y], the current DHCP
server leases will be lost, which could cause network connectivity
issues. It is recommended to change only one member index in an update
call, e.g. from [a, b] to [a,y].

Clearing preferred_edge_paths will not reassign edge nodes from the
edge cluster. Instead, the previously-allocated edge nodes will be
retained to avoid loss of leases.

Delete DHCP lease(s) specified by IP and MAC


Delete one or multiple DHCP lease(s) specified by IP and MAC.

If there is a DHCP server running upon the given segment, or this segment
is using a DHCP server running in its connected Tier-0 or Tier-1, the DHCP
lease(s) which match exactly the IP address and the MAC address will be
deleted. If no such lease matches, the deletion for this lease will be
ignored.

The DHCP lease to be deleted will be removed by the system from both active
and standby node. The system will report error if the DHCP lease could not
be removed from both nodes. If the DHCP lease could not be removed on either
node, please check the DHCP server status. Once the DHCP server status is
UP, please invoke the deletion API again to ensure the lease gets deleted
from both nodes.

Get the recent failed DNS queries


Return the given count of recent failed DNS queries from DNS forwarder.
Since the DNS forwarder is running in Active/Standby HA mode on transport
nodes, the given count of queries will be returned from each nodes. Hence

recent failures is less than the given count, all the failures will be
