[Kea-users] Reserving address in a pool without client identifier

[Darren Ankney]

Hi Adrian,

The best way would be to breakup the pools around any addresses of
this type.  You can specify multiple pools as noted here:
https://kea.readthedocs.io/en/kea-2.4.1/arm/dhcp4-srv.html#configuration-of-ipv4-address-pools
for example:

{
  "subnet": "192.0.4.0/24",
  "pools": [
    {
      "pool": "192.0.4.1 - 192.0.4.14",
      "pool": "192.0.4.20 - 192.0.4.254"
      }
   ]
}

Thank you,
Darren Ankney

It would be nice if reservations didn't require a client identifier or one could be set to "none". As this is not the case, and unless I've missed something in the documentation, how can I exclude an address from being allocated from a pool?
