[dnsmasq] support enforced start-IP, end-IP, netmask
there are corner cases where the "simple" setup via start/end/limit
option does not fit, in our case we need to hand out
192.168.2.1 ... 192.168.2.254 with a netmask of /24 but
the underlying interface has 192.168.0.1/16 so the smart
autodetect
Hi Basti,
I support your changes to dnsmaq init, as this addresses a real use-case to
enhance wireless roaming in our Freifunk mesh as well.
Greetings Thomas

option netmask '255.255.255.0'

it does not work. this is my interface:
14: eth0.1@eth0: mtu 1500 qdisc
noqueue state UP group default
link/eth

Do you know: 192.168.0.0
Hi.

Actually it should work just fine even without "option netmask" if you
specify the "start" as ipaddr:
# ipcalc.sh 192.168.0.1 16 192.168.8.1 252
IP=192.168.0.1
NETMASK=255.255.0.0
BROADCAST=192.168.255.255
NETWORK=192.168.0.0
PREFIX=16
START=19

wow, this works! thank you - this ipcalc.sh beast really
needs some documentation 8-) John: the patch can be dropped.
bye, bast
