      Hello,

      I see things are moving from ISC to KEA. When I enable KEA, the service kea-dhcp4 will not start. Below is the only error in the log file. Is this just part of the DNS portion still being worked on? I just want to get ahead of this issue if it is one.

      
ERROR [kea-dhcp4.dhcp4.0x32757da12000] DHCP4_CONFIG_LOAD_FAIL configuration error using file: /usr/local/etc/kea/kea-dhcp4.conf, reason: option data does not match option definition (space: dhcp4, code: 42): Failed to convert string to address 'time-a-g.nist.gov': Invalid argument (/usr/local/etc/kea/kea-dhcp4.conf:73:33)

        Never mind. If I had just kept reading I found my answer.
