I have found a weird KEA DHCP4 Error related to USB for whatever reason :

Quote ERROR [kea-dhcp4.dhcp4.0x47d7d405c008] DHCP4_INIT_FAIL failed to initialize Kea server:
configuration error using file '/usr/local/etc/kea/kea-dhcp4.conf':
Error during command processing: Interface usbus0 has no index


ERROR [kea-dhcp4.dhcp4.0x47d7d405c008] DHCP4_CONFIG_LOAD_FAIL configuration error using file:
/usr/local/etc/kea/kea-dhcp4.conf, reason:
Error during command processing: Interface usbus0 has no index

I feel like this device should be excluded somehow but since the GUI does not show anything I am not messing around with it via SSH for now.

The only USB devices this install has every seen are :
- USB Stick for the installation.
- Keyboard used during that installation.

Huh, is "usbus0" even in /usr/local/etc/kea/kea-dhcp4.conf?

Nope...?!

In fact it's not even an Interface :

But for some reason I see now multiple daemons think it is ?!

There was some fuzz with Kea lately about interfaces which led to https://github.com/opnsense/core/issues/10072

Not sure if related but worth a peek.

I think this is a different issue since it's not just KEA complaining about this...

Maybe wait for the 26.1.6 Release and check again after a reboot ?

It's nothing that breaks functionality or stability, but it's weird that multiple Services complain about something they shouldn't and have nothing to do with ?!
