Thanks for the suggestion.  The DHCP interfaces are indeed set in the 
site table.  There are no service nodes in the equation (yet).  The 
nodes respond properly to the MN, but it seems as though I'm missing the 
link between assigning the nodes fixed IPs and the nodes getting random 
IPs as they do now.
