<div>Hi Marcin,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Firstly, thanks a lot for your reply :) I thought I would never get a reply as I got</div>
<div>an email saying that my email will be held until the list moderator approves it</div>
<div>as I am not a member of kea-users@lists.isc.org. How did you see my email ? :)</div>
<div>Looks like the list moderator approved my email. Thanks to the list moderator</div>
<div>as well :)</div>
<div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Secondly, thanks for the info. Sure, I will run perfDHCP with a tap interface in a</div>
</div>
<div>bridge, and will let you know if I see any issues.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks again!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The very reason humans have been successful is because they help, and they </div>
<div>help strangers.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Regards,</div>

<div>Hi,</div>
<div></div>
<div>We are using perfDHCP to scale DHCP, and found the following link that</div>
<div>says "perfdhcp does not seem to run if perfdhcp boxes have multiple bridge </div>
<div>interfaces”. Is this true ?</div>
<div></div>
<div>Please search “bridge” in the following link.</div>

</div>
<div>AFAIK, the use of multiple bridge interfaces shouldn't cause any issues</div>
<div>for perfdhcp. From this blog I don't exactly know what the problem could</div>
<div>have been. The error message is cryptic but it doesn't seem to be</div>
<div>related to the fact that the "eth1" interface wasn't not supported.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I was recently using the perfdhcp on CentOS and didn't observe those issues.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please note that the latest version of perfdhcp is available with the</div>
<div>Kea DHCP server 0.9.1-beta version, released on February 18th. I</div>
<div>recommend to use this version. The versions shipped with BIND10 is old</div>
<div>and there have been some improvements and fixes since then.</div>

<div>We would like to use perfDHCP with tap interfaces part of a bridge. Is this </div>
<div>possible ? Can we run perfDHCP by passing a tap interface part of a bridge</div>
<div>to the -l argument ?</div>

<div>I don't see why this wouldn't work. It would be best if you could try</div>
<div>running perfdhcp in your environment and in case you find any issues let</div>
<div>us know and we can work together to reproduce the problem.</div>
