I didn't know this was an option ... I assumed that subnets were mandatory for Kea so that it knows which IP pools to draw from when an inbound request for an address happens where it gets a request for an IP address, looks at the subnet that it came from, matches that subnet to one that is defined in Kea, then pulls an IP address from one of those pools. Are you saying that it will still do that correctly for multiple subnets without defining the subnet specifically within Kea?
no. subnets need to be defined, but within the subnet page you can leave the pools section empty. in that case only predefined clients (reservations) are served. This is similar to "deny unknown clients" in isc.
Others asked to implement this option in kea but I do belive it is included that way.
