ISC is excited to announce the release of Kea 2.6.0, the first version of the
Kea 2.6 stable branch.
As a reminder: Internet Systems Consortium uses an alternating branch scheme
for our releases. Branches that have an odd number in the digit after the first
"." (for example: Kea 2.3, Kea 2.5) are development branches, while branches
that are even-numbered are intended for stable production use (for example: Kea
2.4, Kea 2.6).
With the release of stable branch Kea 2.6, the Kea 2.5 development branch has
now reached the end of its life and is no longer supported. The new Kea 2.7
development branch will be released in summer 2024.
There are now two stable Kea branches: Kea 2.4 (the most recent release is Kea
2.4.1, from November 2023), and the new Kea 2.6.0, released today. The Kea 2.2
branch has now reached End of Life.
----------
The 2.6.0 release contains the results of nearly a year's worth of development
effort, previously previewed in the 2.5 development branch.
Highlights include:
- Hub-and-spoke High Availability
- New hook libraries
- Support for more client options
- Docker images
- New Cloudsmith packages
and much more! Please read the full release notes at
