    Description

      ISC Kea is a new DHCP server which is database drive and can be configured using a JSON file.

      It's highly extendable and doesn't require a plain-text file for it's lease database.

      When our SSVM goes to Debian 9 we can look at replacing dnsmasq by Kea and have a much faster and more flexible DHCP server.

      It also supports IPv6 with many features, so that makes it a lot more future-proof
