The kea server and this client are both on the same subnet.

dhcp-socket-type is set to "raw".

Hi Stephen,

    This client appears to be directly connected with the server’s eth0 interface.

Is 192.168.100.100  an appropriate address for this interface and is dhcp-socket-type “raw”?

Kind Regard Peter

Can someone weigh in on why this host reservation is not working?  Basic
dhcp works but when I add the next-server and boot-file-name to pxeboot
it fails. I get the two errors in the log that I'm running in debug
level currently.

The client system never gets an IP and of course never starts into the
pxeboot process.
