Core Infrastructure Services
This node serves as the authority for the internal network's identity and addressing.
| Service Group | Systemd Unit | Description |
|---|---|---|
| DNS (Primary) | named.service | BIND9 Domain Name Server handling internal name resolution. |
| DHCPv4 | kea-dhcp4-server.service | Kea IPv4 DHCP daemon for dynamic address assignment. |
| DHCPv6 | kea-dhcp6-server.service | Kea IPv6 DHCP daemon. |
| DHCP Management | kea-ctrl-agent.service | Control agent for managing Kea DHCP services. |
| DDNS | kea-dhcp-ddns-server.service | Handles dynamic DNS updates between Kea and BIND. |
Network Virtualization and Discovery
- Open vSwitch:
ovs-vswitchd.serviceandovsdb-server.servicemanage software-defined networking and bridging within the host. - Samba:
smbd.serviceandnmbd.serviceprovide NetBIOS name resolution and SMB/CIFS support. - Avahi:
avahi-daemon.serviceprovides mDNS/DNS-SD for ZeroConf networking.
Automation and Maintenance
- Infrastructure Wake: (22:50)
wake_db_server. Triggers a Wake-on-LAN event for the database server. - Consolidated Maintenance: (08:05)
morning_maintenance.sh. Handles ping checks and package audits.
