Hello KEA mailing list, ____

I am seeing the following errors in our logs for our KEA 2.0.0 server. ____

__ __

“<DATE> <TIME> ERROR[kea-dhcp4.packets/113.140299429395256]  DHCP4_PACKET_PROCESS_STD_EXCEPTIONexceptionoccurred during packet processing: Empty DUIDs are not allowed”____

I am struggling to understand this error message for a couple of reasons. ____

__ __

 1. All of the reading I have done has indicated that DUIDs are only
    used in DHCPv6. We are only running DHCPv4 and you can see the above
    message is from the kea-dhcp4 process – “kea-dhcp4.packets…” +
    “DHCP4_PACKET_PROCESS_STD_EXCEPTION”____

See rfc4361. What OS are you running on the client? I know that support for DUIDs in v4 is different on different platforms and even different versions of the "same" system (Ubuntu Server and Desktop behave differently).

 2. Further to this IPv6 is explicitly disallowed within our environment
    so /even if /the DHCPv6 process was running nothing should be
    sending anything to it. ____

Has anyone else seen similar behaviour previously? ____

__ __

It did occur to me that a bug like this may also be at play here but I’ve been unable to confirm this - https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/kea/-/issues/2260 <https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/kea/-/issues/2260> ____
