[kea-dev] Quoting integer values

[Philip Prindeville]

Hi,

I'm looking at this table:

https://kea.readthedocs.io/en/stable/arm/dhcp4-srv.html#id6

Where it says that "dhcp-renewal-time" is a uint32 but I need to encode it as a string in the config file:

Syntax check failed with: /etc/kea/kea-dhcp4.conf:191.25-28: syntax error, unexpected integer, expecting constant string

Or I get the above message:

   189               {
   190                 "name": "dhcp-renewal-time",
   191                 "data": 1800,
   192                 "always-send": true
   193               }

Why?

Other things like "valid-lifetime" don't require quotes.

Why the discrepancy?

Thanks,

-Philip
