Anybody doing KEA DHCPv6 HA dual servers? We tested an outage scenario of bringing down KEA service on one of the servers, but the other server didn't seem to be able to service new DHCPv6 requests (or handle the existing ones, that were previously given out by the now-downed server). -- -Aaron

I have it operational in my environment. Feel free to reach out off list. Owen
