Hello,

I found out the problem source. It seems it is not achievable what I am trying 
to do. It works for the first time. The kea matches the DUID-LL and creates 
lease with full DUID. Then when the DUID changes, when the client tries to get 
the ip address, kea finds out the reservation address is already assigned to 
different DUID and offers IPv6 address from the pool then. So it seems the 
concept of storing reservations into the leases is not very mature. Or am I 
missing something? Is there some way to overcome the issue?

Thanks

Marek
