[Kea-users] Host reservation "hostname"

[Patrik Lundin]

Hello,

I have a question regarding the Host reservation "hostname" setting in
kea.conf.

I have a host reservation looking like this:
===
{
  "hw-address": "xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx",
  "ip-address": "192.168.1.14",
  "hostname": "name"
},
===

The manual for 1.0.0
(https://ftp.isc.org/isc/kea/1.0.0/doc/kea-guide.html#reservation4-hostname)
states that "the server will assign this hostname to the client and send
it back in the Client FQDN or Hostname option, depending on which of
them the client has sent to the server."

There is however no hostname option being set in the DHCPACK, even if the
DHCPREQUEST contains the Host Name (option 12). Am I misunderstadning the
manual? I do realize it is not possible to configure actual dhcp option values
for reservations in kea 1.0.0, but the manual seems to suggest the "hostname"
setting will create these options (if always or _only_ when the client request
contains any of the options mentioned I cant tell).

Am i missing something?
