# This is an example configuration file for the DHCPv4 server in Kea.
# It provides parameters controlling processing of expired leases,
# a.k.a. leases reclamation.

# We need to specify the the database used to store leases. As of
# September 2016, four database backends are supported: MySQL,
# PostgreSQL, Cassandra, and the in-memory database, Memfile.
# We'll use memfile  because it doesn't require any prior set up.
  "lease-database": {

# The following parameters control processing expired leases. Expired leases
# will be reclaimed periodically according to the "reclaim-timer-wait-time"
# parameter. Reclaimed leases will be held in the database for 1800s to
# facilitate lease affinity. After this period the leases will be removed.
# The frequency of removal is controlled by the "flush-reclaimed-timer-wait-time"
# parameter. The lease reclamation routine will process at most 500 leases
# or will last for at most 100ms, during a single run. If there are still
# some unreclaimed leases after 10 attempts, a warning message is issued.
