Hi, Thank you for finding this issue. I was able to replicate this on 2.4, 2.6 and master. It seems that this only occurs if also configuring "early-global-reservations-lookup": true Do you want to open a confidential issue on https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/kea or should I? Regards, Razvan
-----Original Message----- From: Darren <darren.ank...@gmail.com> To: Kea <kea-users@lists.isc.org> Date: Tuesday, 27 May 2025 2:54 PM EEST Subject: Re: [Kea-users] kea crashes from global reservation ip mismatch Hi Nathan, Thank you for this detail. I am traveling now, but will attempt reproduction of this issue next week. I will be working from the following assumptions (please correct if any of these are wrong): - The reservations are stored directly in the global are of the configuration file (not in a PostgreSQL or MySQL database) - The leases are stored in "memfile" (not in a PostgreSQL or MySQL database). - The configuration is stored completely in the json configuration file (i.e., the "configuration backend" (see: https://kea.readthedocs.io/en/kea-2.6.2/arm/dhcp4-srv.html#dhcp4-cb) is not in use). - You have not set any of these configuration directives: reservations-global, reservations-in-subnet, reservations-out-of-pool (see: https://kea.readthedocs.io/en/kea-2.6.2/arm/dhcp4-srv.html#address-reservation-types) - you have not placed any client-class guards (see: https://kea.readthedocs.io/en/kea-2.6.2/arm/dhcp4-srv.html#pool-selection-with-client-class-reservations) on any of the subnets.
