Broken down that way, the migration didn’t look terribly scary—and it’s made easier by the fact that the Kea default config files come filled with descriptive comments and configuration examples to crib from. (And, again, ISC has done an outstanding job with the docs for Kea. All versions, from deprecated to bleeding-edge, have thorough and… Read More »

For instance, “us” or “jp” might represent the United States and Japan.
