Thanks for the speedy reply Thomas. Is “kill –SIGHUP <pid for kea>” the same as “service kea-dhcp4-server restart” or is this slightly different?

You can instruct Kea to reload it a couple of ways: 1. Send the process SIGHUP 2. Sendi the config-reload command via control channel (See Kea Admin guide: Chapter 16, Management API http://kea.isc.org/docs/kea-guide.html#ctrl-channel) Regards, Thomas Markwalder ISC Software Engineering > > Thanks, > > > > *Neil Briscoe* > > > > _______________________________________________ > Kea-users mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/kea-users _______________________________________________ Kea-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/kea-users _______________________________________________ Kea-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/kea-users
