You can use libkea-dhcpsrv libraries to interact with the allocation engine at a lower level. Handle with care. See: https://reports.kea.isc.org/dev_guide/d8/d5f/libdhcpsrv.html Hope this helps! -David On Tue, Sep 24, 2024 at 1:03 PM David Farje <davidabelfa...@gmail.com<mailto:davidabelfa...@gmail.com>> wrote: Kea provides a control channel that supports Unix Domain Sockets which is a form of local inter-process communication. You'll be using a file to communicate with kea instead of the network. The file path can be configured in kea-dhcp6.conf "control-socket": { "socket-type": "unix", "socket-name": "/tmp/kea6-ctrl-socket" }, You can send your JSON configs directly there. Hope this helps!

Does kea provide an API for inter-process communication in that way? Thank you - Fred -- ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.
