      Just upgraded to 2.7.1 CE, when switching to Kea DHCP, am I right that when using DNS resolver
      pfSense-localdomain-Services-DNS-Resolver-General-Settings.jpg

      These 2 should be unchecked as assigned hostnames are ignored?

      Note: If you have assigned hostnames to devices on your network using static leases, or rely on dynamic lease registration in DNS, 
      switching to Kea DHCP results in those hostnames being ignored. The static lease configuration is kept, so switching back to ISC DHCP 
      will restore the functionality.
      

      ...and as stated that it is not feature compeletehttps://www.netgate.com/blog/netgate-releases-pfsense-ce-software-version-2.7.1 what am I missing(features) against ISC DHCP when now moving over to KEA DHCP?

        Why should those be unchecked if they are ignored anyway?

        Your probably found them already.

          Do you mean ignored now, but leave them checked, as assigned hostnames will be implemented in the near future?

            Sure. And you can go back anytime and or swap at your liking, so I wouldn't mess with the config in pfSense.
