Hi CS,

Kea sees the vendor ID and automatically creates the VENDOR_CLASS_MERAKI class, which is associated with this client.

The problem is that are for some reasonno available leases for this client on subnet-id 3.

It is not possible to give a better explanation based on the data presented here.

Kind Regards Peter

I am trying to migrate onto a kea server however I think I am stymied by vendor classes/options and my lack of understanding of the concept. On the server I am logging the following:

Since I have pools defined with all their IP addresses available, I assume this is because I need to define a vendor class for the meraki access points that are DORA but I can't seem to craft the configuration that can move this forward. Probably because . When I look at our old windows DHCP server I have the following reference but I am still stuck.

<Class>
  <Name>MERAKI_AP_CLASS</Name>
  <Type>Vendor</Type>
  <Data>0x4d4552414b49</Data>
</Class>

Any thoughts, advice, direction? Working my way through https://kea.readthedocs.io/en/latest/arm/classify.htmlbut I'm not sure I fully understand the vendor options concept of all this...especially in resolving my isseu.
