Title: ISC➞Kea migration
Post by: chemlud on November 04, 2026, 05:56:00 PM
Hello again,

currently I'm underway moving my static leases from ISC to KEA (**sigh**, so much lifetime lost on absolutely unproductive work...) and found this here:

https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=48854.0

I have static ARP enabled on many interfaces, so that only reserved MAC-IPs can talk to the sense. What will happen with these static ARP configurations when I disable ISC and enable KEA in the future? Will the "static ARP" on the interface persist?

Guess this still is a show-stopper for KEA, as it doesn't have this feature, or?

PS: Also found and read this here:

https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=49029.0

But the "discussion" ended nowhere in this thread, too.

Any help highly appreciated!

Its not a feature of KEA, its just an interface flag.


Dont know why you loose lifetime. Reservations are export from isc and import to kea via csv, both available in the gui.

Have to spent time selecting an option, DNSmasq, or Kea, then ....

Would be interesting to know, if this new feature in the pull request is in the current version and if yes: Where to find it? Individual interface?
