[Kea-users] kea-dhcp6 packet-level debugging help

[Templin (US), Fred L]

Hello, I am writing a little program that acts like a DHCPv6 client and talks to the kea-dhcp6
server over a dedicated virtual Ethernet interface pair. Since I am crafting the DHCPv6 client
side packets locally, I would like to set UDP checksum to 0 so I don't have to bother with
the Internet checksum. But, kea-dhcp6 seems to be ignoring my packets.

Will kea-dhcp6 accept DHCPv6 Solicit messages with UDP checksum set to 0? And, does it
have a debug facility that prints per-packet processing statistics? Right now, when I run with
the "-d" flag set, I see nothing in the logfile when the suspect DHCPv6 Solicit message is
sent - it seems like I should see something if kea-dhcp6 receives the packet, shouldn't it?

Thank you - Fred
