[Dnsmasq-discuss] dhcp address allocation

2009-07-21 Thread gabriel

Hi, I currently use dibbler with radvd to advertise a v6 prefix received via prefix delegation. I also use dnsmasq for DNS and DHCPv4. My understanding is that I can replace radvd with dnsmasq. I noticed that recent versions allow advertising of prefixes received via PD (using the constructor para

I too have noticed this strange phenomena, and not just in DNSMasq. On almost every DHCP server I have ever used, when I look at the lease file, there is never hardware info for linux boxes. Personally, and my understanding of the underlying mechanics of DHCP is very limited, I thought that all req
