24.1 Legacy Series / Re: 24.1 - DHCP server moves to KEA - implications?
« on: January 31, 2024, 10:15:48 pm »
Hello all,
Upgraded from 23.7.12 to 23.7.12_5 and then immediately to 24.1_1.
Running 4 physical interfaces with separate networks on each, 2 wan, 2 lan with DCHP service.
Switched from ISC to Kea DHCPv4
Transitioned to the Kea DHCPv4 service was simple but seems to be an all or nothing issue.
Attempting to get Kea listening on interface 1 would not work with ISC DHCPv4 listening on interface 2 (seems the ISC DHCPv4 server locks the port on all interfaces).
Once I had both subnets defined (you can do them separately for clarity) and disabled the ISC DHCPv4 instances Kea was able to start as per the logs and as per GUI.
I would be happy to test the Kea implementation further.
Thanks
