Proxy-Options

These scenarios check DHCP server WPAD (Web Proxy Auto-Discovery) option. WPAD allows web browsers to automatically discover and configure proxy settings. This includes: wpad-url (option 252), which provides the URL to a PAC file. Verification is done via the hidden extended-detail command to confirm the client correctly received the options.

WPAD Options

Description

Verify WPAD URL options via extended-detail.

Scenario

Example 1

Step 1: Set the following configuration in DUT0 :

set interfaces ethernet eth0 address 10.0.0.1/24
set service dhcp-server shared-network wpad subnet 10.0.0.0/24 options wpad-url 'http://proxy.example.com/wpad.dat'
set service dhcp-server shared-network wpad subnet 10.0.0.0/24 start 10.0.0.5 stop 10.0.0.5
set system login user admin authentication encrypted-password '$6$GSjsCj8gHLv$/VcqU6FLi6CT2Oxn0MJQ2C2tqnRDrYKNF8HIYWJp68nvXvPdFccDsT04.WtigUONbKYrgKg8d6rEs8PjljMkH0'

Step 2: Set the following configuration in DUT1 :

set interfaces ethernet eth0 address dhcp
set system login user admin authentication encrypted-password '$6$GSjsCj8gHLv$/VcqU6FLi6CT2Oxn0MJQ2C2tqnRDrYKNF8HIYWJp68nvXvPdFccDsT04.WtigUONbKYrgKg8d6rEs8PjljMkH0'

Step 3: Run command interfaces ethernet eth0 show at DUT1 and check if output contains the following tokens:
