Hi. The best solution will be set shall renew time and big lease time - but it seems like dnsmasq doesn't support renew time specifying...
You may try to use some persistent-mounted partition that will store your leases (not a perfect solution, but it's suitable if this isn't a boot partition). Or you can try to add persistent IP records to dnsmasq config.
