Hi<br>
<br>
I don't actually use Kea yet.<br>
Included the list as more people might have better ideas.<br>

Could your addresses be running out just because there are not enough?

Sorry, I should have described the scenario better:
- There are only about ~40 devices on the LAN side, including some of the users' iphones.
- Ubiquiti Unifi network with 1 USG, 3 AC-AC-PRO and 1 UNIFI 48 port switch.
- DNS is named, running in MacOS (the easy way, via dns-enabler)
2. I've now tried increasing the lease time, I saw it was very short, and now I have increased it
to 24 hours, to see if the cleanup process goes better this way. </pre>

I would copy the leases file when the problem is present and see
what is going on, sort it according to the IPs and check if all IPs
are actually used and if the same device gets the same address or
it always gets a new one.<br>
<br>
In general each device should get the same address when renewing. If
one or more devices get new addresses with every renewal, that is an
area to look at.<br>
<br>
I am sure there are other ways to find out but I am not aware of
these.<br>

3. Regarding declaring the subnet, this is networking 101 but I'm not getting to terms with this,
should it be:
"subnet": "10.0.1.1/24",
or
"subnet": "10.0.1.0/24",</pre>

This form is used by the documentation, so that is the most safe
bet.<br>

?
- Different vendors use different notations. Ubiquiti, for one, include the gateway.
- I think Kea sees these two as two different subnets and allocates accordingly, but I might be wrong.
What do you use? Include the gw (.0) or no?
Fortunately holiday at client site so have time to experiement. Not often :)
