Hi Darren, However, it is still a tool-based test, right? I tried using the actual clients i.e from the laptops and tcpdump shows the time elapsed seconds are greater than 10 seconds.
My major doubt or concern is why my packet/client is not considered as an unacked-client, or if it is a valid unacked-client is the kea-dhcp unable to increase its counter (do I need to add any config more to work as it expected?). Do we have any specific log file where I can check for this unacked-client thing?
