[Kea-users] DHCPOFFER delay

[Andrey Kostin]

Hi Darren,

I plan to have two DHCP relay routers facing IPoE subscribers and would 
like to make relay selection more deterministic, so that one relay is 
active and another is backup. Currently I assign IPs from different 
subnets to advertise only aggregate prefix for each subnet from each 
router. Users connect to both relays and they work as active-active. 
Seems there is no problem with this setup, but just wanted to know is 
there a way to make one of relays preferred.

Kind regards,
Andrey
