- In Kea 1.7.8 an incompatible change was introduced to the syntax of the

The ``ha-servers`` map contains two structures: ``local`` and ``remote``. The former
contains the status information of the server which received the command. The
latter contains the status information known to the local server about the

These parameters have the following meaning in the communication interrupted
state:

-The last parameter introduced in the Kea 1.7.8 release was the ``ha-mode``.
-It returns the HA mode of operation selected using the ``mode`` parameter
-in the configuration file. It can hold one of the following values:
-``load-balancing``, ``hot-standby`` or ``passive-backup``.
-
-The ``status-get`` response has the format described above only in the
-``load-balancing`` and ``hot-standby`` modes. In the ``passive-backup``
-mode the ``remote`` map is not included in the response because in this
-mode there is only one active server (local). The response comprises no
-information about the status of the backup servers.
