This page provides information about the Kea, Stork, and BIND 9 software versions currently running on monitored machines. It consists of two main parts:
Stork can identify the ISC software used on all authorized machines and check whether those software
packages are up-to-date. The summary table indicates whether there are software updates available for any of
the versions that are running, with messages that show how critical those updates are.
The table also includes whether the machine's Stork agent version matches the
Stork server version.
The Stork server's version is also checked. If an update is available, the notification message is
displayed above the Summary table.
The version of the Stork server and all Stork agents should match; e.g. if the
Stork server version is 2.0.0, all Stork agents should also be version 2.0.0.
For each machine where the Kea server is found, Stork also checks whether all the Kea daemons use matching
versions.
If the Kea server has more than one daemon active, they should all use the same version; e.g. if the Kea
server has active daemons DHCPv4, DHCPv6 and DDNS, and the DHCPv4 daemon is
version 2.6.1, all other Kea daemons (DHCPv6 and DDNS) should be version
2.6.1.
The table includes color-coded notices about the importance of upgrading the Kea, BIND 9, or Stork software,
based on the software version checks performed. The summary table groups the notices by severity and sorts
them in descending order.
ISC advises reviewing the summaries for machines with red and yellow severity and updating those software
versions.
These tables show the currently available versions of ISC's Kea, BIND 9, and Stork software. There are links
to the software documentation and release notes, as well as to packages and tarball downloads. The table
also indicates the version release dates and an EOL (End-of-Life) date for stable releases.
The tables may include different types of releases described with the following terms:

The information about ISC software releases shown on this page may come from different sources:
The Stork server tries to retrieve the data from the online source first. If for any reason this data cannot be retrieved, there is a fallback mechanism that reads the offline JSON file.
