[Kea-users] perfdhcp doubt

Thu May 16 07:51:29 UTC 2019

Hi!

I'm doing some test with perfdhcp and I don't understand some things.
For example, I'm sending just one broadcast request with the following
command:

# perfdhcp -4 -b mac=fb:01:00:00:00:00 -R 1 -r 1 -n 1 -l ens256 -B
Running: perfdhcp -4 -b mac=fb:01:00:00:00:00 -R 1 -r 1 -n 1 -l ens256
-B

The request is collected with a dhcp relay and send it to the kea dhcp
server which replying to the request. Why in a tcpdump in the kea dhcp
server I see so many Requests and Replys?, exactly 18:
