Checking every configuration bits for production is definitively an
excellent thing. But one could have an option to skip validating some
part(s) of them.

I understand, but you don't have to put the configuration file in its final

/tmp/kea-dhcp4.conf and then copy it into place if it passes the test.
I doubt that ISC is going to be keen to not check certain bits of the
configuration file (such as the interface section).

We want to be able to validate the configuration file without
touching/accessing the production servers, for example for
developing/testing/validating changes in the software that generates the
configuration file.

Is it not possible to, instead, check the conf file on host2 where it will live?

Subject: [Kea-users] kea-dhcp4 -t file: check the configuration file syntax and

Hi,
Before deploying a new kea configuration file on our DHCP server, we
want to validate it.
The configuration file "kea-dhcp4.conf" is generated on host1 where we
want to validate it by running
kea-dhcp4 -t kea-dhcp4.conf
And once validation has passed, we plan to deploy "kea-dhcp4.conf" ho
the KEA server running on host2.
The problem we have is that validation fails with the following error:
Error encountered: Failed to select interface: interface 'xxxxx' doesn't
exist in the system (kea-dhcp4.conf:225:9) (kea-dhcp4.conf:224:7)
coming from
"interfaces-config": {
"interfaces": [
"xxxxx"
],
"dhcp-socket-type": "udp"
},
Interface 'xxxxx' may exist on host2 but not on host1.
Is anyone encountering the same problem ?
Is there a work-around ?
Thanks,
Veronique
