Hi Darren,
Yes - "lease-lifetime" was my error - I meant "valid-lifetime".
I understand that I cannot apply "valid-lifetime" to a pool (although I
feel like I should be able to).
I already define client-class as "KNOWN" in all my pools so that unknown
hosts can't get an IP, and I understand that I can't use a second
client-class of "short-lease" in each pool.
I looked in the Kea code where options are defined, and thought I would
be able to add:
{
"name": "dhcp-lease-time",
"data": "300"
}
... to "option-data" section for each host, but this didn't work
either. I see that in the Kea docs, all-options.json skips from code 49
to code 52, thereby skipping over code 51 which is lease time.
I tried adding "code": 51, to the section to my option above, but it
didn't make any difference.
I tried adding "valid-lifetime" to the "reservations" section to see if
that would work, but it would not.
Therefore, I'm still not sure how to implement different lease times for
pools.

Hi Jason,
would it be valid syntax to also set lease-lifetime in the pool instead of
using the class?
"pools": [
{
"pool": "10.1.2.100-10.1.2.200",
"lease-lifetime": "300"
}
]
I cannot find evidence of a parameter called "lease-lifetime" but
"valid-lifetime" cannot be set inside a pools [] block.
I already assign the pools to "client-class": "KNOWN" - can I specify multiple classes?
"client-class": "KNOWN", "short-lease"?
If I use a class to do this, is the "valid-lifetime": 300 inside the subnet
definition necesary? It is repeated in both the subnet and the client-class short-lease.
The "valid-lifetime" inside the subnet was a mistake. That was a
relic of some earlier testing. You cannot specify multiple classes on
a client-class line. I don't know if you can have both client-class
and client-classes as I've never tried. "client-class" does not do
the same thing that "client-classes" does.
Thank you,
Darren Ankney
