Re: [Kea-users] Kea System Requirements
Our largest environment serves about ~5700 clients and is an active-passive pair of VMs with 2 vCPUs and 8 GB of vRAM using the MySQL backend. The load average hovers around 0.00 on most days, although it's serving predominantly bare metals in a data center and the default lease duration is 120H. cheers, Klaus On Wed, Jan 4, 2023 at 7:21 AM Eric Graham wrote: > Running compiled Kea 2.2 in a Docker container that had one CPU and 500MB > of memory, in a VM that had 4 vCPUs and 4GB of memory, allowed me to reach > 1,700 lps with 3% drops using dhcperf on a second VM on the same host (and > memfile backend).

Re: [Kea-users] Kea System Requirements
Running compiled Kea 2.2 in a Docker container that had one CPU and 500MB of memory, in a VM that had 4 vCPUs and 4GB of memory, allowed me to reach 1,700 lps with 3% drops using dhcperf on a second VM on the same host (and memfile backend). I'd recommend that as bare minimum specs. In production I would recommend much higher, to be safe. It really depends on your environment, hooks, other services running on the system, etc. Eric Graham DevOps Specialist Direct: 605.990.1859 eric.gra...@vantagepnt.com<mailto:eric.gra...@vantagepnt.com> [cid:cf310f7d-3f51-46e2-ac27-1114f49b9a73] From: Kea-users on behalf of JT ISC Sent: Tuesday, January 3, 2023 7:20 PM To: kea-users@lists.isc.org Subject: [Kea-users] Kea System Requirements CAUTION: This email originated outside the organization.

Re: [Kea-users] Kea System Requirements
That is highly dependent on the number of clients you will be serving. There really is no easy way to answer that question. Have a look at dhcperf. you can use that to simulate the expected client load and see if your server can handle it. > On Jan 3, 2023, at 8:20 PM, JT ISC wrote: > > What are the system requirements for Kea? > > 4 GB RAM and 100GB HD adequate? > > Thanks > -- > ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions. > Contact us at https://www.isc.org/contact/ for more information. > > To unsubscribe visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/kea-users. > > Kea-users mailing list > Kea-users@lists.isc.org > https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/kea-users -- ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.
