[Kea-users] Renumbering Ipv6 Pool

Hi Darren,

I've not tried this myself, and I expect different behavior compared

We actually don't use shared networks, because it causes sometimes issues
selecting the wrong subnet based on the relay-ip
I know already from lab tests when i change the IPv6 pool,  the old lease
expires, the client will go offline, rebinds to the new IPv6 address and
comes back online.

In the lab the lifetimes are very short, so i can see the behavior
quite quicky.

Cheers,
Thijs
