Hey forum,

I'm running into an issue where I can't seem to find an answer. Maybe I'm just missing the obvious here but still, not finding it so i thought I'd ask here.

with isc-dhcp, clients would receiving IP from within the defined pool would be assigned the hostname "clientname.pool.domain.com". The defined pool in ISC's configuration that issued the hostnamed is defined as:

Code:

if exists host-name { ddns-hostname = concat(lcase(option host-name), ".pool"); }
else { ddns-hostname = concat(clientName, ".pool"); }


This suffixed .pool to the client same so that I know it's an IP address from the defined pool. I had several "reserved" defined ranges each with it's own suffix, ie:

Code:

if exists host-name { ddns-hostname = concat(lcase(option host-name), ".tv"); }
else { ddns-hostname = concat(clientName, ".tv"); }


Which indicates it's 1) a TV and 2) that it received IP from that specific pool.

My question is, how do i accomplish the same thing with Kea? I'm just not finding the answer in the docs. Or maybe I"m just dumb and not understanding the nuances between the two services.

Thank you in advance.
