I would recommend, if possible, to update straight to Rocky 9, or better, since you are on CentOS, to CentOS Stream 9.

Otherwise you'll have to upgrade again in ~18 month, when Rocky 8 (CentOS Stream 8) goes EOL. Kea is available for el9 from EPEL (version 2.2.0).

As a rule, I upgrade the OS when I upgrade the hardware, because upgrading between major revisions isn't supported. And generally requires a lot of finicky tweaking of settings, so I need to get that done while the old hardware and OS are in service.

Back when Fedora replaced the original Red Hat releases for end user installation, I discovered I was supposed to upgrade every 6 months. I discovered RHEL/CentOS had a much longer upgrade cycle matching how long I went between hardware replacement, so I switched.

For specific applications I'm willing to install a more bleeding-edge version, and Kea fits into that category, as there don't seem to be major breaking changes between minor versions, and I'm not doing anything exotic with my small networks.
