yes, that is correct - I want to be able to save the ephemeral data that is not permanent configuration. > > That would need a crafted script to save it (probably from local.stop), and > then reload it on boot up & make sure dnsmasq picked it up.

I don't really see a problem with an old file, because the dhcp is fairly stable here. The problem I get now is that I have no leases after a router reboot which seriously effects my semi-permanent devices such as IP cameras, phone etc. I can't set them to a really short lease, because if the router is down I lose access to them. many thanks Marko > > John > > On 24/01/17 14:48, Erich Titl wrote: > > Hi > > > > Am 23.01.2017 um 22:46 schrieb Mark Berndt: > >> On Thu, 19 Jan 2017 04:52:57 PM Erich Titl wrote: > >>> Am 19.01.2017 um 02:24 schrieb Mark Berndt: > >>>> When I reboot my leaf system, /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases is lost. > >>>> > >>>> I added it to my local config so it is saved, but of course this only > >>>> happens when save the config. > >>>> > >>>> What is the best way to preserve this information between reboots? > >>> > >>> The easiest way is to add it to /vart/lib/lrpkg/local.local > >>> > >>> cheers > >>> > >>> ET > >> > >> Thanks John & ET. > >> How do I save the config from the command line, I want to put it in the > >> stop script.
