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

Hi, I would like to migrate a few thousand DHCP leases from a non-ISC DHCP server to a memfile backed Kea instance.  Looking through the docs, it seems it would be easier to populate the lease file in /var/lib/kea/kea-leases4.csv rather than using hooks.  However, in a fresh install the file only contains the header row.  Is there an example file populated with rows I could look at to properly format the data for import?  Didn’t see anything in the docs, but might have missed it.
