Hi All – I am aware that the API to access the Firewall rules is under development and that the alternative would be to create Automation Filters instead.

I re-created the existing LAN rules into Filters, disabled the 'old' LAN Rules under Rules > Lan, however they do not seem to work. I was meticulous enough to provide the right sequence to the filters to reflect the LAN Rules. My goal here is to activate/deactivate rules via Home Assistant with a toggle.

What do I miss here? Many thanks!

Were you able to get this working?

Your end goal is exactly the same thing I want to achieve, so I am glad I found this post before I started down the API road.

Helpful info!

Thank you all helping this issue.
I found the way to clear the leases.

Just modify the file /var/db/kea/kea-leases4.csv or simply remove the file to clear the lease.

Did you have to restart a service / daemon after modifying or deleting the file?

I am experiencing an issue with DHCP leases within Kea that are not being removed after their expiration time.

Is there a manual process that can be executed to clear out the expired leases?

(Note: I have temporarily disabled DHCPv4 in Kea due to this issue.)

[run a cleanup process]

Eventually Kea will run a cleanup process and should remove stale entries, after which you can disable it.

Which cleanup process?

Is it possible to manually run this process, as I have leases that have expired, but have not been removed.
