Nicholas,

We tried implementing this and at first it seemed to work as intended, however, 
within 36 hours or so we started having issues with the DHCP server failing to 
allocate IP's.

We tried configuring this 2 ways,


  1.  ALL subnets as their own shared network - we quickly found out this 
created a huge hit to the server load.
  2.  Only the VLAN with multiple subnets.

We do currently have 1 VLAN working as a shared network off of this server and 
it has been working fine.  The issue still arises however when trying to add 
additional shared networks.

We will continue to troubleshoot further on this, and try to isolate why this 
is happening.  It is the only ring we are having this issue with Kea on, 
multiple other instances on other rings are functioning just fine.

Not sure if we are still implementing incorrect or something else is at fault 
here.

Kris,

We're just using Kea in a lab setting, but we have all our vlans that do not 
share subnets broken into multiple networks. We aren't seeing this problem, but 
again, we are just in testing. Please post results, as we will be in the same 
situation if we moved to production with Kea.

So for example we would break up ,

        "shared-networks": [
          {
            "name": "SharedPop-Node1",
            "relay": { "ip-addresses": ["X.X.X.1"] },
            "subnet4": [
               {
                   // VLAN 1116 -  Node
                   "subnet": "X.X.X.0/22",
                   "pools": [ { "pool": "X.X.X.4 - X.X.X.254" } ],
                   "option-data": [ { "name": "routers", "data": "X.X.X.1" } ],
                   "client-class": "HA_dhcp-1"
               },
               {
                   // VLAN 1116 - Node 2nd Subnet
                   "subnet": "X.X.X.0/23",
                   "pools": [ { "pool": "X.X.X.4 - X.X.X.254" } ],
                   "option-data": [ { "name": "routers", "data": "X.X.X.1" } ],
                   "client-class": "HA_dhcp-1"
               }
             ]
          },
          {
            "name": "SharedPop-Node2",
            "relay": { "ip-addresses": ["X.X.X.1"] },
            "subnet4": [
               {
                   // VLAN 1204 -  Node
                   "subnet": "X.X.X.0/23",
                   "pools": [ { "pool": "X.X.X.4 - X.X.X.254" } ],
                   "option-data": [ { "name": "routers", "data": "X.X.X.1" } ],
                   "client-class": "HA_dhcp-1"
               },
               {
                   // VLAN 1204 -  2nd Subnet
                   "subnet": "X.X.X.0/23",
                   "pools": [ { "pool": "X.X.X.4 - X.X.X.254" } ],
                   "option-data": [ { "name": "routers", "data": "X.X.X.1" } ],
                   "client-class": "HA_dhcp-1"
               }
             ]
          }
         ]

Subject: [Kea-users] Multiple Subnets on same VLAN

We have a lingering issue that we are trying to work through and seem to be at 
a standstill each time we try and resolve our issue.

The issue is solely with VLAN's that have more than 1 subnet.

We have tried adding into "Shared Networks" which solves the issue with one 
single VLAN, the issue is we have multiple VLAN's that use more than one 
subnet.  When adding an additional VLAN and subnet to the "shared network" 
category we start getting IP issues with handouts and trying to handout from 
subnets that are not part of that node. I have tried using the relay function 
as well and have not managed to find a work around.

All of our other VLAN's with a single subnet are functioning as intended

Below is a snip of the configuration.  With the other nodes commented out this 
performs as expected.  But when I comment them back in we start seeing issues.

Should we scrap the shared networks and move them back to individual networks 
and just add the relay to each? Or am I missing something here?

Any help would be appreciated
