Description

A high-performance, extensible DHCP server engine from ISC with support for DHCPv4 and DHCPv6. Network administrators use it to assign addresses and manage DHCP behavior in controlled networks.

Use it only on networks you administer. A misconfigured DHCP server can disrupt connectivity for many devices, so plan scopes, leases, interfaces and failover carefully.

How to run

kea-dhcp4.service
