I upgraded to pfSense 2.7.1 CE and happed to notice the following two new warning banners that ISC DHCP is EOL and we need to migrate Kea DHCP. Apparently the migration is not automatic or straight forward.
I guess I am being overly concerned. I just don’t want to be the person who takes the whole family off the internet without knowing the implications or having a backup plan, like the FB BGP incident.
Fairly sure that Netgate has mentioned that Kea hasn’t been fully implemented as yet, hence there is a choice. Can’t recall the reason why I didn’t enable it but there was something that made choose to wait.
pfSense has it only part of it implemented. If you don’t use any of the features listed in this post from above then you can enable it, otherwise you’ll need to wait.
