You can add fixed-address entries for some of your devices as well
as a pool for transient ones even to the same network's configuration
in dhcpd.conf, e.g.
shared-network etherhub {
subnet 10.11.12.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
option domain-name-servers 10.11.12.13;
group fixedones {
option domain-name "example.org.";
option routers 10.11.12.1;
host foo {
hardware ethernet 52:54:00:01:02:03;
fixed-address 10.11.12.14;
}
host bar {
hardware ethernet 52:54:00:01:02:03;
fixed-address 10.11.12.15;
}
}
pool {
option domain-name "example.org.";
option domain-name-servers 10.11.12.13;
option routers 10.202.254.1;
max-lease-time 3600;
range 10.11.12.129 10.11.12.253;
allow unknown-clients;
}
}
}
