Asked By TechyNinja123 On

Hey everyone! I'm looking for a way to migrate from Microsoft DHCP to ISC DHCP. I know it's considered deprecated and that I should ideally switch to Kea, but I'm really hoping for a GUI option. I've heard mixed things about Stork—some say it's not very helpful. While OPNSense offers a decent GUI, I'm not keen on using FreeBSD. I'm really waiting for Webmin to create a module or for Stork to become more useful. I came across a script called ms2isc.pl that's supposed to help with this migration, but it's giving me issues trying to fetch parameters from some nonexistent registry keys. I've got a lot of reservations set up, so doing this manually is totally out of the question for me! Any suggestions?

You might want to try exporting all your scopes, leases, and reservations using PowerShell. It can serve as a bridge to import that data into your new DHCP setup. Here’s a link that should help: https://community.spiceworks.com/t/how-can-i-save-dhcp-scopes-and-reservations-in-powershell/529679/2

I see what you're saying about the PowerShell export, but just a heads up: that's typically for moving between Windows servers. You're looking to hop over to ISC DHCP, right?
