      @Mauricio-Joel-Maidl check your logs? I assume you’re enabling Kea when you test this?

      There was a post that using an NTP hostname in DHCP settings was not (yet?) supported, IIRC. (Along with many other things, in the preview/alpha)

      Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
      When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.

          Probably : he checked the DHCP log, saw the issue, correct it, and it was solved.
          I said 'probably' because people tend to say 'problem' without showing ....

          No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
          Edit : and where are the logs ??

              @Mauricio-Joel-Maidl said in kea-dhcp does not start:

              problem still unsolved... enabling kea-dhcp the devices disconnect

              If "kea-dhcp does not start" is the case, then cliets can't get a lease.
              So, again : what does the system and dhcp log show ?

                      @Mauricio-Joel-Maidl said in kea-dhcp does not start:

                      I am using an NTP hostname in the DHCP settings

                      This is an IP address :

                      5e991a85-d2a8-4e8b-a407-48aa4d94cef6-image.png

                      not a host name ^^

                      If you were actually using host name like ntp.server.tld, KEA (and also ISC-DHCP) would fail to start.
                      The popup - this popup :

                      142b1b65-f1fc-4f57-8147-50ff562989d8-image.png

                      is wrong.
                      Only IP v4 and v6 addresses are allowed - a DHCP server will not (and shall not ?) resolve.
