As a DHCP newbie, I was about to ask the very same question (didn't
RTFM much I admit), so I watch carefully the answers.

For the moment, I use this workaround to have roughly an idea of what
machine is a currently DHCP client :


    REGEXP="DHCPACK on 145.238"  (my prefix)
    LOGFILE=/var/log/all.log
    
    grep -i "$REGEXP" $LOGFILE \
        | awk '{print $8}' \
        | sort -u \
        | sort -t . -n -k1,1 -k2,2 -k3,3 -k4,4 \
        > $FILE

And then some aggregation.
