🌐 Web query:

iPXE "v2.0.0-130-gbbd7821bd8" tag or commit

💡 Result:

The string v2.0.0-130-gbbd7821bd8 is not a recognized tag or official release version for iPXE [1][2]. iPXE uses a versioning format for rolling releases generated from the Git repository, typically following the pattern v<last_tag>-<number_of_commits_since_tag>-g<commit_hash>. Based on the official iPXE repository, the version v2.0.0 was released on March 6, 2026, with the commit SHA 12798ec29aa8a64d8675c4378b99f5fe28447afb [1][3]. The specific string v2.0.0-130-gbbd7821bd8 appears to be a misidentified or non-existent build string in the context of the iPXE project. While v2.0.0 is the current stable major release, there is no evidence of a build with that specific commit hash (bbd7821bd8) in the official iPXE codebase [1][3]. Furthermore, searches indicate that the hex code bbd782 corresponds to a color, and similar versioning strings appear in unrelated repositories, such as the AWS CDK, which uses v2.130.0 [4][5].

Update the iPXE pin in docs/development/build-guide.md:12 The table entry should match the submodule gitlink (bbd7821bd42da5456ee068a471ef73d525ea26a1). v2.0.0-130-gbbd7821bd8 does not identify that pinned commit, so use the full SHA or the exact describe string for the commit.

A prior DHCPDECLINE can make Kea reject the correct address with a NAK
because the lease is temporarily marked unavailable.
nico-dhcp.config.kea.declineProbationPeriod now defaults to 900 seconds,
instead of the kea default of 24 hours, limiting how long the address
remains quarantined.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Qualify the probation period as the chart default.

The Helm configuration allows declineProbationPeriod to be overridden, so this should say “defaults to 900 seconds when unset.” Also capitalize Kea for consistency.

Proposed wording
- nico-dhcp.config.kea.declineProbationPeriod now defaults to 900 seconds,
- instead of the kea default of 24 hours, limiting how long the address
+ When unset, nico-dhcp.config.kea.declineProbationPeriod defaults to 900 seconds,
+ instead of Kea's default of 24 hours, limiting how long the address

As per path instructions, documentation must accurately reflect current deployment configuration and remain clear for operators.
