[Kea-users] Migrate to Kea from non-ISC DHCP server

[Darren Ankney]

Hello Rachael,

There probably isn't an example file anywhere in the documentation (I
looked also) or if there is, I just didn't find it.  I would suggest
setting up a test kea server with the memfile lease database persisting to
a file.  Then use perfdhcp to generate traffic thus populating the file.
If you need specific options to appear in the lease file, it is possible to
use perfdhcp to generate most of them (even if you have to create the hex
yourself).

Thank you,

Darren Ankney
