The notes in the Kea ARM suggest that if you're managing the configuration backend directly, then you're best to use commonly-available database tools to insert/modify/delete etcetera https://kea.readthedocs.io/en/v1_6_0/arm/config.html#config-backend > Is there a better way to add a subnet via Kea interface? There is a much much easier way, but you need the cb_cmds hook for this, and it's not a part of OpenSource Kea, you'll need a subscription to get it. I'm guessing, since you've not already gone this route, that this isn't an option for you just now? https://kea.readthedocs.io/en/v1_6_0/arm/hooks.html#cb-cmds-library > I then used config-get command to get server's configuration but no > subnet was shown and the server's log also said that it found no subnet. > I had one in database so what could be the problem there? I'm going to guess that there is something wrong or missing, such that the Kea DHCPv4 server didn't load what you specified. https://kea.readthedocs.io/en/v1_6_0/arm/dhcp4-srv.html#dhcp4-cb There may be something helpful logged? There look to be some promising potential messages listed here that relate to the CB backend (independent of the cb_cmds hook): https://kea.readthedocs.io/en/v1_6_0/kea-messages.html#dhcp4 For example: DHCP4_CB_FETCH_UPDATES_FAIL > Part of server's configuration is attached. Nothing jumped out at me as being glaringly wrong - maybe others reading will see what we might have missed, but I think the most likely cause of this problem is not getting the configuration elements correct in the DB, or perhaps there being a schema problem perhaps? Hoping that the troubleshooting pointers help as a starting point for you - and perhaps other people on the list have already tried doing what you're doing and can give you further hints?
