Unless I am doing something silly, dhcpd(8) may not be accurate regarding how the "fixed-address" statement and -L option inter-operate.
Yesterday I discovered that when you assign a DHCP client an IP address using the "fixed-address" command, dhcpd does not create an entry in dhcpd.leases. As a result, it will not enter the IP address into the pf table specified by the -L option. This seems to be the intended behavior, but it isn't documented anywhere. In fact dhcpd(8) says "[e]ach client is assigned a lease", implying that even clients using "fixed-address" should be given a lease entry. Is this something that should be fixed or am I reading the man pages wrong (or worse have I messed something up on my end)? Max H. Chiz
