[Kea-users] Overlapping/duplicate subnets

[Jan Schermer]

I'll chime in - this is a must for any "cloud" or SDN use (OpenStack etc.).
Absolutely worth implementing.

I know that using DHCP relay agent information option, I can distinguish between different subnets. However, the additional constraint is to use duplicate or overlapping subnets instead of different subnets. Since, the traffic comes from each segment goes through NAT, it wouldn't be any problem to use duplicate IP addresses, knowing that each segment has its own autonomy.
