=> not yet: the code supporting client class in pools is under review so is not
merged. BTW we should redesign client classes code so it will be more "not
member(phone)" class than "deny" (it is a matter of taste but IMHO it is
clearer and more powerful to be able to combine classes than to reproduce the
ISC DHCP allow/deny).

PS: translation of the ISC DHCP config to Kea should give:
{
/// This configuration declares some subnets but has no interfaces-config
/// Reference Kea #5256
