[Kea-users] Kea-dhcp-ddns not logging debug info (OPEN)

[Oscar Carlsson]

Hi,

The documentation provides an example, this is what I think should 
be
right:

"loggers": [
        {
            "name": "kea-dhcp4.dhcp-to-d2",
            "output_options": [
                {
                    "output": "stdout"
                }
            ],
            "severity": "DEBUG"
        }
    ]

You can verify this with kea-dhcp4 -t /path/to/file.conf (-t for 
test)
in case you are unsure it was right.  I use this with Ansible to 
test
all changes before putting them into effect, it's quite handy.
